Chapter 368: The So-Called Loyalty (II)

The night is coming to an end and a new day is coming.

As always, the soldiers of the Overwatch City had begun to assemble and go out hunting aliens and surveying the surroundings, and the lights were diminutive outside, and the shouts of officers and the sound of soldiers stepping on the ground were clearly heard in Amos's ears.

At this time in the past, Amos should still be holding a soft woman's body in the bed and enjoying a deep sleep, but today is an exception, in his subconscious, for some reason, he actually felt a faint uneasiness, this uneasy feeling made him sleep, he had already gotten up early, stood by the window, and stared at the soldiers who were gathering outside.

There was already a faint reddish in the distant sky, which meant that the sun was about to come out, Amos's old face was full of uneasiness, he closed his eyes tightly, and now his perception of the eighth order ability was also quite amazing, and at this moment his perception was like a radar, feeling all the changes around the Watch City.

But everything turned out to be the same as before, calm and unchanged!

He opened his eyes slightly, sighed after a long silence, shook his head slightly, and laughed at his suspicious nature, but just as he was about to turn around and go back to sleep, a fire suddenly burst into the distant air, which was extremely dazzling in the night, which was already some light.

Although it was some distance away, Amos could still see that the light of the fire was coming from the watchtower that the Overwatch City had built ten kilometers away, which meant that the watchtower had been destroyed at the moment.

Amos, of course, did not believe that this was a deliberate act by the soldiers in the watchtower, so there was only one result, the enemy who could escape from his perception had already begun to arrive, and the battle had already begun at this moment.

How strong are the enemies who can dodge his senses? Amos didn't dare to think about this question at all, and he didn't immediately give the order to defend, but looked at the fire that was still burning, and muttered, "Is it finally here?" It's good to ......."

He muttered to himself, and then the next moment there was a knock on the door that immediately sounded rapidly, mixed with an anxious voice: "Lord Amos, no, there is an enemy invading our base......"

Before Amos could speak, the tranquility of the Watch City was immediately pierced by a sharp whistling, and three small black dots whistled at an unusual speed, cutting through the still somewhat dim sky in an instant, and landing on the central square of the Watch City! Then there was an earth-shattering explosion, three huge fireballs rose into the air, and under the shock wave, the buildings around the square were like sand castles, with the square as the center, and collapsed outward.

Amos was stunned for a moment, the enemy's attack speed was much faster than he expected, and it was also much more ferocious, he immediately walked outside the door and opened the door, looked at the officer with an anxious look on his face, and ordered in a deep voice: "Immediately start the top combat preparations, everyone is ready to fight!" ”

At the time of Amos's order, although the place where Howard was lurking was still more than a kilometer from the central square, the wind in his face was already full of hot and scorched smell! He couldn't see the fate of the warriors of the Overwatch City gathered in the square, but under the blow of this power, it must be more than lucky.

However, this fierce bombardment of three missiles specially made by him was only the first wave, and according to Howard's previous coordinates, it would be followed by a precise coverage bombardment of heavy artillery.

A faint whistling sounded in the air, and fireballs rose up in the Overwatch City, and from time to time you could see some chariot parts and even the Overwatch City soldiers flying up with the explosion! Howard knew very well that the rapid-fire heavy cannon specially built by him was terrifying on the battlefield!

Even if a seventh- or eighth-order capable person was hit by such a dense artillery fire, it was enough to choke!

Howard's gray hair was flying, his body felt the tremor of the earth, looking at the scene in front of him, and sighing in his heart that this was the real war!

In just a few minutes of shelling, hundreds of shells fell densely into the city of watch. Heavy artillery roared incessantly, everything in the camps, vehicle parking lots, and firing points of the Watch City exploded to pieces, and the induction minefield was blasted into pieces in addition to the whistling shells that poured down, and the explosions came from the ground one after another, accurately clearing a safe passage. Due to the guidance of Howard, the artillery fire was unusually accurate, and under the guidance of the exact coordinates, the error of the landing point of the heavy artillery shells was even less than ten meters.

Howard was constantly moving, and the explosions and smoke were his perfect cover. He would never stay in the same spot for too long, the air was full of shells, and he didn't know if the next batch would fall right on top of his head.

According to the decision made before the attack, the heavy artillery should now be commanded by Selena, and God knows what will happen. Constantly changing positions to increase the difficulty of the raider's lock-on target, this is a skill that every true bounty hunter has, no matter which side the raid comes from, not to mention Huo Dehua, who has now reached the ninth order ability, is of course very handy for such small things.

Soon, the rapid shelling had passed, and occasionally one or two heavy artillery shells flew in, accurately hitting a specific building, and the heavy artillery shells fired at this time were more powerful than before, and when they hit directly, they could easily level the small buildings below three floors, and the soldiers of the Watch City hidden in the small buildings naturally had only one end.

Howard quickly went up to the top floor of an abandoned building and looked out of the window. From this angle, you can see the square of the Overwatch City, where the flames are blazing and the surrounding buildings are almost completely destroyed. There were more than a dozen vehicles of all kinds in the square, including engineering vehicles, chariots, and transport vehicles, all of which were burning, and the charred wreckage of the soldiers of the Overwatch City could be seen everywhere.

Huo Dehua only silently calculated in his heart, and he already knew that the blue scorpion combatants who were destroyed or killed in the square were only one-third of the strength of the Watch City at most, and it was not really a bone-break!

The two XCOM batteries swirled slightly around Howard, and he squinted at everything around him, and after the initial panic, the forces of the Watch City had regrouped. Judging from the arrangement, the commander of the Overwatch City had obviously expected someone to attack this place, so it seemed that this place had been prepared for a long time, but it was obvious that he did not expect such a fierce long-range attack, so he suffered heavy losses in an instant. However, the reflexes of the warriors and commanders of the Watch City were also excellent, and the survivors quickly organized themselves, and several chariots drove out of the hiding spots scattered throughout the Watch City and rushed to the edge of the defensive line.

All the soldiers and officers of the Watch City began to move according to the predetermined plan, busy but not chaotic, and there was no panic at all.

Anyway, however, the siege battle soon began, followed by shouts of killing, gunfire, and the roar of cannonballs resounding across the sky, and the breath of death soon spread to every corner of the Watch City.

While Howard was leading his army in an assault on Overwatch City, the battle at Base B958 was coming to an end.

The automatic rifle held in Alice's hand, the four ninth-order peak powerful genetic abilities, until the moment before death, did not think that they would die under an ordinary bullet.

Only the fifth and last officer of the Tenth Order Early Strength did not move closer to Alice because of his natural caution and timidity. So he saw Alice shoot two powerful companions with two seemingly random shots. And Alice's eyes, which were cold and emotionless in the night, seemed to sweep over his place!

In an instant, he shuddered, turned and stepped directly, it seemed to him that all this was really incredible, he saw with his own eyes that his partner seemed to be imprisoned by an invisible force at the last moment, and then he was shot by a bullet, such a result was incomprehensible to him, and it also made him feel afraid, as for the action he was making now, even he couldn't understand why.

In the end, he thinks that this is the innate instinct of human beings, and when facing death, even if it is a person with tenth-order ability like him, it is understandable to make such an action, and the so-called loyalty is just something that exists under the establishment of sufficient benefits!

He could only find such an excuse to comfort himself!

But as soon as he made this gesture, the deep muzzle of Alice's automatic rifle seemed to stretch out an invisible line, through all obstacles, through the humble wooden house where he was hiding, and whistling past his ears. But in the end, the bullet from the muzzle of the gun was fired to another place, so a B958 genetic soldier staggered out of hiding, the automatic rifle in his hand firing aimlessly, until the magazine was emptied, and the soldier fell. Blood was pouring out of his neck.

Cold sweat soaked through the military uniform of this tenth-order ability officer, he never dreamed that the ordinary MA41 automatic rifle, even if it had been modified, would still be a child's toy in his eyes, but in the hands of that woman who looked weak, it would become so terrifying!

He didn't have any more thoughts, and then stepped out in one step, and immediately disappeared, but in the next moment, his figure that had already crossed into the space was revealing little by little, and the face of this officer with tenth-order ability was full of disbelief, he lowered his head slightly, and saw a slender hand sticking out of his chest!

He wanted to look back and see who the owner of the hand that pierced his chest was, but the energy brought in by this hand had destroyed all the genes and flesh of his body in an instant, and he could only feel his vitality constantly decreasing, and finally his eyes widened and he fell to the ground, only his body continued to twitch and carry out the final dying struggle.

A pair of somewhat worn military boots trampled in front of him, and the next second, in the last consciousness, the last scene that the officer saw was the black hair as pure as the night, swaying in the breeze!
