Chapter 182: The Great Battle of the Scorpion King
Outside the temporary stronghold of the radiation zone, the Chinook armed transport plane, marked with the seal of the United Nations Organization, once again came to this area.
But this time it wasn't just a transport helicopter that came, along with it a whole dozen Apache armed combat helicopters.
And as this group of air troops landed outside the stronghold, the people who arrived together this time were also the people who had to wait respectfully for all the survivors in the entire stronghold.
Lyon, President of the People's Congress, wore a high-end military uniform, and led a Kevila in a police uniform in his right hand, and stepped off the plane under the escort of several escorts.
"Speaking of which, we haven't left Georgia for nearly five or six years."
After getting off the plane, looking at the people who came up to welcome him, Leon turned back to Kevila with some emotion and said:
"Now that you sit in the office every day, are you still as flexible as before, and your marksmanship is still as accurate as before?"
Kevela gave her husband a blank look, and snorted:
"Hmph, are you looking down on me?"
"Fighting and shooting have always been compulsory classes for me every day, don't you know if my skills are good or not?"
Without the permission of the President, out of courtesy, no one else spoke.
However, Claymanting, who had grown up in Leon's house since she was a child, had no worries, she casually said hello to Leon, and then walked up to Kevila with a smile and whispered with her about what happened during this time.
Leon didn't feel offended by this, and being able to be so informalistic in front of him only showed that the little girl didn't treat him as an outsider.
Soon, the others who came with them also stepped out of the plane, and in addition to Professor Marlock, who wanted to be able to observe the super mutant up close, even Professor Jacob, who had rarely gone out, also came here.
The reason why so many people came this time and spent so many resources was not that he worked hard and made a big fuss.
Rather, it's because they're about to face a super mutant with fast movement speed and extremely strong attack power.
Even because they wanted to obtain the Z element in the super mutant's body, they had to keep the body intact as much as possible and not use weapons of mass destruction.
After a brief greeting, everyone entered the hall of the makeshift stronghold and began to explore how to deal with the giant mutant scorpion.
However, except for the members of the Jesus team who have seen the real thing, no one else has much say in this matter.
"Your Excellency, after informing you of the news, we also went to that oasis again through the reconnaissance drone to reconnoiter the intelligence of that monster."
Jesus was quite respectful towards Leon, having been in the Human's organization for so many years, and he was well aware of the power and prestige of the man in front of him.
"However, because of the short period of time, we didn't get too much specific information."
"What is certain is that this mutant scorpion likes to stay under the sand most of the time, hiding its body."
"Only when the larger prey comes to the oasis will it be attacked by it."
Jesus paused, glancing at the others.
"It's so powerful and fast that it can't keep up with its movement speed without a vehicle."
"Moreover, its claw pincers and tail spikes are very strong, and its attack speed is also very impressive, although no actual attempts have been made, I suspect that neither our body armor nor the alloy armor of the Death Corps should be able to resist its piercing."
At this point, Jesus nodded at Jill, and the girl immediately took out the video she had prepared and projected it onto one wall with a projector.
"Here's what we got on footage."
There is not much content in the video, when Jesus and others encountered the mutant scorpion for the first time, they did not turn on the video function, and the video played this time was just some clips captured by them using reconnaissance drones in the future.
However, although the time is short, the video also clearly records the appearance of this huge mutant scorpion, as well as the speed and strength it displays when hunting.
Those present who had never seen it were very surprised, it was hard to imagine that a scorpion could reach such a level of speed and strength.
Leon lowered his eyebrows and thought for a few seconds, unlike the others, he didn't actually take the scorpion's attack power into account.
Even if it is a super mutant of the same level, in addition to having some advantages in speed, the attack and defense of the mutant scorpion this time are actually not as good as the mutant crab queen in Florida.
However, this mutant scorpion, like the mutant crab queen, has a headache-inducing ability.
That's their ability to escape, the mutant crab queen is at most diving into the sea when it encounters danger, and judging from the performance on the video, with the speed at which the mutant scorpion dives into the sand, unless it can seriously damage the mutant scorpion before it can escape.
Otherwise, even if you have the ability to kill it, you may not be able to catch it in the sea of sand.
However, as the supreme leader, he doesn't have to do everything himself, and this time he came here in person, in addition to seeing how far the super mutant has changed, the main reason is because he wants to prevent accidents and be foolproof.
So, Leon put forward his thoughts and doubts, and asked the elites present to think about countermeasures for him.
Many of the people who came this time are talents from all walks of life, and we have been discussing for a long time, and finally summed up a few reliable solutions.
………………
After formulating the battle plan, he did not delay too long and immediately began to implement the battle plan.
In the afternoon, in a small oasis a few kilometers away from the temporary base, a strange scene appeared.
Three docile pack horses, led by three armed mechanical dogs, approached the oasis step by step.
Perhaps it was because they had never seen such a strange-looking creature as an armed mechanical dog, and when the pack horse and the mechanical dog entered the oasis, they were not immediately attacked by the mutated giant scorpion.
The combat engineer in charge of the command was not in a hurry, he controlled the mechanical dog to take the three pack horses to the small lake in the middle of the oasis, and then let the horses drink the water of the lake and eat the wild grass comfortably in this place where the vegetation is still relatively lush.
After waiting for about ten minutes, perhaps sensing that these two creatures were not dangerous, the mutant giant crab that had been lurking in the sand slowly emerged from the sand.
A conspicuous sandbag was arched a few dozen meters from the vicinity of the oasis.
It was too late, but it was fast, almost in the blink of an eye, and the mutant giant scorpion rushed out of the sandbag and quickly came to the location of the pack horse and the mechanical dog.
In the eyes of the survivors of the Human Union watching from the hidden place, its huge claw pincers and four whip-like tail spines on its tail turned into an afterimage, flesh and blood flying, and the metal creaked as it was destroyed.
It took almost a few seconds, whether it was a flesh-and-blood pack horse or a metal-structured mechanical dog, all of them were poked with holes in the giant scorpion's claws and tail thorns.
Then, before the pack horse's carcass was cold, the mutant giant scorpion approached them, swallowed the warm flesh and everything that was hidden in its stomach, and feasted on it.
However, it was clear that the intelligence of the mutated giant scorpion was not as high as Leon had imagined, and after it had eaten the corpse of the pack horse covered in flesh and blood, the mechanical dog with the metal structure of the whole body was still unsatisfied, and it also grabbed its mouth and chewed it a few times with its monstrous maw, which had been mutated.
The hard metal was bitten and rattled, but I didn't know if the scorpion's mouthparts were damaged because of this.
The body of the mutant giant scorpion was slightly stunned, and even the tail that swayed from side to side because of the pleasure of eating instantly fell, silently spit out the mechanical dog that had been bitten and somewhat deformed, and it swept aside with its huge claw pincers in disgust, and then began to turn the direction of its body, and slowly left towards the sand dunes outside the oasis.
The food delivered to its mouth for free may make this mutant giant scorpion very comfortable to eat, but it never thought that the free thing is the most expensive.
"How's it going, Sherman, how many miniature bombs have he swallowed in his stomach?"
Hearing Leon's question, Sherman, whose face was covered with stubble, breathed a sigh of relief and replied:
"Brother-in-law, the situation is not bad, according to our positioning system, about ninety percent of the miniature high-explosive bombs have been swallowed by this guy."
"The total weight is about ten kilograms, and it can be detonated at any time according to Ling's orders."
Leon nodded slightly, although he had not tested the defense of this mutant crab, but according to his experience, the black carapace on this crab would definitely not be much weaker than a steel plate of the same thickness.
However, the strongest defenses are often destroyed from the inside, and even the largest blue whale with ten kilograms of high-explosive bombs will be blown to the ground and turned into minced meat, even if this mutant giant scorpion is metamorphosed, it will definitely be hit hard.
He turned his head to look at the other side of the command center, where Clemantine was standing in front of a display made up of many high-definition projections, staring at one of the screens with some blankness.
In that screen, Tom, a giant wearing a dozen tons of heavy armor, was sitting bored on a rock, staring at the ground in a daze.
Leon coughed lightly and said to Clementine, who was looking at him:
"Don't be in a daze, little girl, it's time to carry out Plan B."
Little Clay Manting immediately came back to her senses, hummed softly, and then used the communication device to start communicating with Tom, the giant on the screen.
Soon, the armed giant, who had been sitting on the stone, slowly stood up, picked up a huge square shield in his left hand, and lifted a special Gatling cannon weighing almost half a ton in his right hand.
And behind his back, he also carried a special bullet box containing nearly tens of thousands of rounds of ammunition, linked to the Gatling cannon.
In this way, with these nearly twenty tons of special equipment on his back, the armed giant Tom began to slowly move towards the direction of the oasis.
Under everyone's gaze, it took nearly a few minutes for Tom, the armed giant, to arrive at that oasis.
Then, after only a few minutes of rest and a few breaths of relief, Tom, the armed giant, raised the huge square shield in his left hand and began the demolition work as if he were using a hammer.
Bang bang! Click! Bang Bang!
When it comes to destruction, this powerful guy is really a good hand.
Soon, whether it was the lawn on the ground, the verdant trees, the dense shrubs, or the stones, roots, and berries, this originally beautiful and vibrant oasis became ugly and gradually lost its vitality under the destruction of the giant Tom.
This made the mutant giant scorpion, which was originally hiding under the sand layer and wanted to wait and see, couldn't bear it.
smashing people's jobs, but they don't share the hatred of the sky.
The wasteland world was originally very scarce in resources, and it was only by relying on the rare oasis in this area that the mutant giant scorpion lived a happy life waiting for the rabbit to come to the door.
Even though the intelligence of the mutant giant scorpion is not high, but out of the instinct of protecting food, it can no longer take care of hiding, and it gets out of the sand in a hurry.
And Clementine, who had been watching the battle situation, also noticed the changes in the dunes, and without hesitation, she immediately commanded the giant Tom to make a response.
Bang Dang! Click!
In the blink of an eye, the armed giant had just turned around, and before he could protect the square shield in front of him, the sound of metal and carapace colliding resounded throughout the green state.
The huge claw pincers slammed into the square metal shield, and the hard carapace and the special steel collided with dazzling fire.
However, before Clementine could react, the mutated giant scorpion in a state of rage had already danced the four stinger tails on its tail and began a dazzling attack on various positions on the armed giant's body.
Ding Ding Ding! Ding Ding Ding!
The sound of the tail spike and the heavy metal armor colliding one after another, countless sparks splashed wildly, but with the protection of the heavy metal armor, the tail spike of the mutant giant scorpion did not cause penetrating damage to the giant Tom.
However, the metal armor's high-strength defense against shock damage made the mutant giant scorpion feel pain, and it gradually slowed down its attack, and began to use its weight and size advantage to arm the giant.
However, after a few minutes, even though the mutant giant scorpion had used all its strength, its physical superiority was not comparable to the hard metal, and no matter how it attacked, it could not break through the metal shield in Tom's hand and the heavy metal armor on his body.
And just when the two giant creatures were wrestling with each other, and when the mutant giant scorpion began to gradually exhaust itself, Claymanting finally gave the order to attack.
Although his personality is relatively docile, he has been passively beaten and has also accumulated a lot of anger from the giant Tom, and after receiving Claymanting's order, the armed giant in full armor roared wildly, and smashed the shield in his hand on the face of the mutant giant crab.
Then, while the mutant giant scorpion was confused, the special Gatling cannon in his right hand also began to roar mercilessly.
Thirty-five millimeter large-caliber bullets, at a rate of nearly sixty or seventy rounds per second, roared wildly at the position of the mutated giant scorpion's head.
A powerful rate of fire, in just a dozen seconds, poured more than a thousand rounds.
Even the mutant giant scorpion's steely black carapace could not resist the power of the Gatling cannon, and countless powerful warheads shattered the carapace of its head and entered its body, ruthlessly destroying various organs in the mutant giant scorpion's body.
The mutated giant scorpion, which had not been harmed in any way since it mutated, couldn't help but let out a sharp wail, and the instinct for survival made it dare not continue to fight with the iron lump in front of it.
Although it is very fierce in battle, it is also very decisive in the face of danger.
After realizing that you are in danger.
The mutant giant scorpion completely ignored the bullets that were still pouring down, allowing its body to be riddled with holes, and recklessly turned around as fast as it could, trying to escape towards the position of the dune.
However, it was not easy to seize the opportunity, how could the people of Lyon let this big mouth of fat fly away from the plate.
Under the command of Claymanting, Tom, the armed giant, decisively threw away the huge square shield in his left hand, and grabbed the tail of the scorpion exposed by the mutant giant scorpion because of the turn.
Relying on the weight of nearly twenty tons of his whole body, the muscles of his whole body bulged, and his legs dragged two deep ravines on the ground, dragging the movement of the mutant giant crab to death.
And Leon, who was sitting in the command center, also saw the opportunity and gave Sherman the order to detonate.
Boom Boom!
At the moment when Sherman pressed the detonation button, a muffled sound like thunder continued to come out of the mutant crab's body, and the mutant crab, who was still struggling with the mission and trying to escape, also trembled and seemed to freeze there.
However, I don't know what the structure of this mutant creature is, after being injured by a high-explosive bomb close to ten kilograms in its body, even though black-brown blood flowed from the cracks in the carapace all over its body, it still didn't kill this mutant giant scorpion.
And this near-death crisis has stimulated this super mutant creature.
With a click, the tail that was originally caught in the hands of the armed giant, for some reason, suddenly fell off directly from the root of the tail of the mutant giant scorpion.
Taking advantage of this opportunity, he finally got out of control, and the mutant giant scorpion used all the strength in his body and began to flee towards the location of the sand dune.
However, at this time, just when the mutant giant scorpion thought that he could escape the danger and save the life of a dog.
A dazzling laser shot from a distance of several hundred meters, in the blink of an eye, and hit the head of the mutant giant scorpion, where the carapace had been shattered by the Gatling laser cannon.
The high temperature, which was several thousand degrees high, immediately caused very fatal damage to the mutant crab's head, and also stopped its escape movement for a few seconds.
And in these few seconds, the armed giant standing behind the mutant giant crab, also under the command of Clementine, pounced forward again, and grabbed all its tails from the root of the giant scorpion's tail.
After being captured this time, no matter how the mutant giant scorpion struggled, the armed giant also relied on his extremely heavy body and did not compromise.
And the laser that hit the head of the giant scorpion, like a maggot attached to the bone, bit at the head of the giant scorpion that was shattered by the carapace, constantly raising the temperature and burning its flesh and blood.
No matter what kind of flesh it is, it can't withstand such high temperatures.
Soon, with the smell of sweet barbecue, this mutated giant scorpion that had been crisscrossing the sand sea for a long time lost its life under the attack of this dazzling laser.
