Chapter 697: An all-out offensive is overwhelming
The dense C-124 lowered its altitude to less than 10,000 feet as soon as the mission began. www.biquge.info This was their expected airdrop height, and when they confirmed that they were ready for each other, they immediately shouted a countdown and released the cable hanging from the plane at the same time.
Sixteen Titan machines descended straight from the clouds towards the ground like falling meteors. Among them, some of the Titan machines landed very smoothly, while others were very dangerous. Of course, this danger is for those pilots of the C-124.
Because of this high-altitude launch combat mode, it is inevitable that some accidents will occur in the process of implementation. And any accident is a fatal factor at this time. If the Titan machine, which requires ten large transport planes to afford, once put all its weight on one or two of the transport planes, the only result will be a crash and a single death.
It is impossible to say that all of the 160 C-124s are safe and sound, in fact, at the moment of the airdrop, more than 20 strategic transport planes were directly dragged down and turned into a big fireball in mid-air. This kind of loss is almost unacceptable even for the deep-pocketed US government. However, in Pierce's eyes, this is a perfectly acceptable situation.
As long as the Titan machine can be safe and sound, then even if all these strategic transport planes crash, he will not frown. But of course, after paying such a big price, his efforts were naturally rewarded accordingly.
Sixteen Titan machines landed on the ground unscathed. While most of the transport pilots thought that the damn machines would be damaged when they landed, that didn't happen. And this is mainly because of the incredible flexibility of the Titan machine.
Like a seasoned parkour athlete, these titan machines perform technical maneuvers and roll lifts the moment they hit the ground. Their sheer size and tonnage barely affected their movements, and their movements were far more agile than humans could have imagined.
There was no need to even do the usual resting in place, and the moment these giant machines got up, they ran all the way in the direction of Radiance City.
Looking at these weapons of war, which were nimble but obviously possessed terrifying destructive power, the pilot, codenamed Metal, quietly drew a cross on his chest and muttered to himself.
"What a terrible monster, this kind of killing weapon really shouldn't be on this world."
Naturally, the idea of a mere pilot was not in Pierce's mind, and all he cared about now was his ultimate machines. And when he saw the mutants who were panicking at the sight of such a huge machine from the Titan machine's eye camera, his face became even more frantic and happy.
"Yes, exactly. Run, shout, shout. Then let me all die. My war machine is unbeatable, and you goddamn mutants should all be swept away from the dust of history. ”
Just like his crazy whispers, the moment he saw those Titan machines, the mutants who were originally lined up and ready to face war and defend their homeland couldn't help but stir. The sheer size and horror of the Titan Machine is a huge shock even for these mutants. In other words, any living being can't help but tremble when they see such a huge existence. The contrast between insignificance and greatness, and humility and grandeur, is enough to give birth to fear and panic in their hearts.
And when they destroyed everything in front of them in great strides, and even moved the steamroller that Magneto had created together, this mental panic and impact became more and more huge.
Most of the mutants began to recoil. While their abilities alone are unlikely to be effective against such a giant machine, it is understandable to retreat. But their retreat made the force, which was already unrestrained, lose more and more confidence in resisting.
This is obviously not the case, and if this continues, then the huge machines that appear on the battlefield can take down the entire city without much effort. And at that time, the demise of the mutants will only be a matter of time.
The smarter mutants are aware of the seriousness of the problem, so when many people are starting to back down, they choose to stand up as they should. Among them, especially the core members of the mutant brotherhood and the academic teachers under Professor Charles are the most prominent.
Auroro took to the skies first, summoning a howling blizzard and a thunderbolt in the sky, hoping to use the power of nature to stop the giant machines from advancing. And Logan and the beast also followed the mutants of the flesh line, and launched a charge against those huge machines.
In any case, this bravery is commendable. But, at the end of the day, this mere counterattack will not change the current situation. Because at the level of a behemoth like the Titan Machine, the power of nature is extremely limited. They can ignore the fierceness and cold of the blizzard, defy the terrifying power of the thunder in the sky, and stride towards their goal.
As for the small bugs that charge at them, they are even less likely to threaten them. To get their hands on the Titan machines, they'll have to get past the sentry robots. And in terms of their numbers, it is almost impossible to do this kind of thing of ten thousand armies directly taking the head of the enemy general.
Even if they succeeded and broke through the defenses of those sentry robots, what kind of actions could they make to deal effective damage to the steel giant more than a hundred meters tall? It's a thing that makes people feel desperate just thinking about it, but these brave attackers don't even have a chance to think about it.
Because at this moment, a shrill whistling sound suddenly came from above their heads. And when they heard this voice and looked up, they could only see vague black shadows, and bombs that were getting clearer and closer to them.
The military bombers rushed over at this time and mercilessly began to tilt their own full stockpiles of ammunition towards the ground. And with the loud roar of the first bombshell, it spat out deadly fire. All the bombs that were dropped began to bloom on the ground one after the other, like blooming flowers of fire.
The sky roared in the almost incessant explosion, and the earth trembled with the terrifying power. With all the power of human destruction, there is little that can last long. The fortresses of earth and stone and the flesh and blood of living creatures were like torn newspapers, spilled around every corner in a gust of wind. And the lucky ones, even if they weren't blown away by the blast, were mostly huddled in the corners, shivering and praying for everything to pass sooner.
Those who can stand strong there are all the few, and even these few brave men are probably not as strong as those behemoths standing. This level of bombardment is nothing at all for the Titan machine, though it is already hellish punishment for most mutants.
Things really got really bad, especially when it really went into war mode. The insignificance of the individual is clearly manifested in the face of this cruel reality. Under the trampling of the war of the behemoth of the United States, these mutants who have lost their backbone are really not much different from a group of ants.
Despite their efforts to resist, the resistance really didn't work.
When Auroro watched as the bombers that were clouding down on her caused casualties of this magnitude in just one sortie, she immediately stopped harassing the Titan machines and used her abilities instead of using them.
The weather had become strange in her hands, and the terrifying extreme cold and tornadoes erecting in the air suddenly made the actions of these bombers dangerous. With just a small oversight, several B-52s were swept into the hurricane and then swirled into a huge clear fireball.
Compared to dealing with the Titan machines, Auroro's abilities are clearly more effective against these aircraft. But there's only so little more she can do. Because at this time, the escort fighter group also rushed over.
These supersonic fighters cut into the dense clouds almost like scalpels, and approached Auroro, who was floating in the air. Although Auroro, who had noticed them, began to desperately manipulate the weather around her, trying to stop the fighters from approaching, she said that everything she had laid out was of little use in the face of the fighters' super-high speed of maneuverability.
And for those fighters, she is almost a target in the air, and there is no threat at all except that she is a little smaller. Locking on to the target, and with a flick of the launch button, the missile mounted on the fighter jet fired directly at Auroro. Seeing that he had become the target of the attack, Auroro could only grit his teeth and roll up a huge tornado around him.
A huge tornado swirled as it swept the incoming missiles, causing them to explode under tremendous pressure. Of course, this situation saved Auroro from danger, but the impact of the explosion caused her to fall from the clouds like a kite with a broken string.
As she staggered to the ground, she found that in the midst of a scorched earth of flames, the Titan Machine was like a mythical monster of horror, striding into their steel city, wreaking havoc on everything in its path.
And right next to this giant monster, those sentinel robots are more like ruthless slaughtering machines, frantically slaughtering every mutant in front of them.
The group of planes in the sky was still as oppressive as dark clouds, and in the distance, there were tanks driving towards them like a tide. And when the blazing missiles began to appear in the clouds, the mutants realized that their defenses had been torn apart by these steel weapons of war, and their end seemed to be just around the corner.
Despair began to rush over like a tidal wave. (To be continued.) )
