Chapter 1294: Heavy Deaths
To say that the country on this planet that most revered the supremacy of force, naturally it was none other than the United States.
Although this American general had also seen the image of the deep sea monster, he believed that with powerful modern military weapons, he would be able to eliminate the monster.
The order for the third formation to not return immediately after dropping the depth charges was also given by him, with this helicopter formation in place, he was able to collect the relevant monster corpses in the first place.
“Now that we can’t see the images, it’s still unknown what the facts really are!”
General Rasco’s face revealed a trace of worry, the depth charges dropped by the third helicopter formation had already started to explode without reaching the designated territory, whether or not there would be any variables that would happen in this, no one knew for sure.
However, General Rasco, who had once felt the fearfulness of that monster with his own eyes, was still vaguely uneasy in his heart, and he always felt that the monster didn’t seem to be so easy to be eliminated.
“General Rasco, as a commander, your caution is understandable, but to be overly cautious would be cowardice, I don’t think a monster corpse can do any harm to my soldiers.”
The American Major General was dismayed by General Rasco’s words, although Rasco was the overall commander of this operation, but we were all Major Generals together, and this lesser General from West Point clearly didn’t put the fifty-something Rasco in his eyes.
“I hope so!”
Rascoe shook his head, not bothering with this cocky American Major General any more, but instead picked up the microphone and said, “This is Rascoe, the Chief of Operations, I order that the bombers in the base be ready to stand by, and with that, get ready to depart ……”
Although the U.S. Army Major General scoffed at General Rasco’s behavior, but the other party was after all the chief commander of this operation, and at that moment did not say anything more, but only spoke out that he would only be the third helicopter formation, ready to salvage the monster’s corpse.
At the same time, in the conference room not far from the command headquarters, admirals from all over the world, are looking at a few satellite monitoring real-time shooting of the big screen, also launched a heated discussion.
The people in the room were divided into two factions, one side believed that the monster had been eliminated, while the other side held an old-fashioned attitude, and before seeing the monster’s body, the results of this operation, there are still some doubts.
Peng Fei, who was sitting in a corner of the conference room, looked at the wave on the screen that was up to dozens of meters high, and looked at Zhuang Rui dumbfounded, saying, “Brother Zhuang, is this done?”
To say that this action, really a little bit of thunder, the beginning of the helicopter formation to see the crowd boiling blood, but the explosion that occurred at the bottom of the sea, but can not be presented on the surface, so that the crowd can not help but feel a little tasteless.
“Of course it’s finished, let’s just wait for the spoils!”
Before Zhuang Rui replied, Lai Shaohua on the side took over Peng Fei’s words, as an admiral, Lai Shaohua was well aware of the power of these bombs, in his opinion, after dropping so many depth charges, even if it’s a mountain, it can be flattened, that monster is nothing more than flesh and blood, and is even more difficult to escape from this.
“I don’t think so, Brother Lai, you don’t know, those two monsters in the Central African forest are simply invulnerable to knives and guns, if not for the bombs exploding from within their bodies, I’m afraid that they would still be alive and kicking up to now!”
Zhuang Rui shook his head, then said, “In my opinion, it is possible to seriously injure that monster, but killing it, I guess it’s a bit up in the air.”
Zhuang Rui has “seen” the monster’s tentacles, if the first hundred or so tentacles to resist the bombs for a while, it may not be impossible to escape, of course, these things are not enough for outsiders.
From the first deep water bomb detonation, time has passed more than ten minutes, and the rough sea, slowly began to calm down, the waves are not so big.
This made the murmurs in the conference room become even louder, the depth charges had been detonated and the sea was about to return to calm, all these signs surfaced that the monsters had been wiped out.
And at the order of the American Major General, the helicopters of the third formation, began to lower their altitude, and from more than a dozen helicopters, dropped some diving robots into the sea surface.
However, the sea had not yet completely calmed down, and the images transmitted by the robots from the sea were very blurry, and it was impossible to distinguish any images at all, so the people could only wait patiently for the robots to enter the deep sea and transmit the situation under the sea.
As the robot continued to dive, the sea water slowly became calm, but the original clear sea water, at the moment it was blood red, which made everyone stare at the display with wide eyes.
In the process of continuously going deeper and deeper into the underwater, from time to time, there was a huge piece of unidentified objects that crossed the side of the robot, and it was clear to everyone that this …… might have detached from that monster.
“Well? I told you! The monster was blown to pieces long ago.”
Seeing the situation at the bottom of the sea, the American general smiled triumphantly, only the smile on his face had not yet hidden, a display screen, suddenly disappeared into thin air.
“Eh? It’s a problem with the signal, isn’t it?”
The U.S. Major General’s brow furrowed for a moment, and without waiting for him to give out any instructions, the images transmitted by those more than a dozen robots unexpectedly disappeared one by one.
However, under the attention of the crowd, it was discovered that before the images disappeared, the robots seemed to have been hit by a strong impact, and the speed of the object that hit the robots was so fast that it was impossible to tell what it was.
To say that a robot because and the sea object impact lost function, this is also reasonable, but a dozen robots together problem, that is definitely not a coincidence thing.
This made everyone in the command center and the conference room tense up, for the unknown, people will always be in awe.
“Helicopter formation three, this is Rasco, I order you to pull up your altitude immediately and return to flight immediately.”
Seeing the scene in front of him, General Rasco’s heart gave birth to a bad feeling, and pushed away the American Major General who acted as if he was the commander-in-chief, and gave an order to the third helicopter formation.
Just before the other party replied, has been transferred to the satellite monitoring the sea surface, suddenly very suddenly emerged a dark round object.
This object was more than twenty meters thick, and the pictures taken from a high altitude overlook looked like a platform, but on this object, there were dozens of suction cup-like things of all sizes growing.
In the command headquarters of the coalition generals, have been unknown, General Rasco’s face, all of a sudden became white, a grabbed the microphone in front of him, shouted: “fast, elevated, quickly elevated!”
However, this order was obviously given a little too late, without waiting for the pilots of the third helicopter formation to react, the sucker-like object that slowly floated out of the sea suddenly sprang out of the water like a spring, and shot towards the helicopters in the sky like lightning.
Due to the need to drop the diving robots, the lowest flying dozen of helicopters, however, were only thirty to fifty meters above the sea surface, so they didn’t react at all, and were struck by the object that shot out of the sea.
The dark, steel-like object swept through the middle of the dozen or so helicopters like an iron whip, and these helicopters were like papier-mâché, the propellers and fuselage instantly detached and were jerked apart, and a ball of fire lit up in the air, and then immediately afterward crashed down towards the surface of the sea.
This all happened too fast, so fast that all those who saw this sight did not react.
From the time the unknown object surfaced to the time the helicopter crashed into the sea, it was only a few seconds, and it was only when General Rasco gave that one order.
After the deathly silence, a sudden intake of breath erupted in the conference room, everyone was shocked by the monster’s strong vitality, after experiencing such an intensive bomb attack, this monster actually had the strength to fight back.
However, the image in front of them was such that these generals did not have time to think carefully about countermeasures.
Because the object that was covered in suckers, like tentacles, after shooting down more than a dozen helicopters, didn’t shrink back into the sea, but continued to rise upwards into the sky, aiming clearly at the remaining dozens of helicopters in the air.
“Return, return, return immediately!” This time it was the American Major General who made the sound.
The loss of more than a dozen helicopters and crews in a matter of moments had left this conceited American general with a face so pale that he couldn’t see a trace of blood.
To know, in addition to the two wars that took place in Asia in the 1950s and 1970s, the U.S. soldiers were heavily wounded and killed, in these decades, all the foreign wars, the U.S. soldier’s damage, almost insignificant.
And because of his own carelessness and poor judgment, which led to the deaths of more than a dozen U.S. and British soldiers, the major general knew in his heart of hearts that he would not be able to escape the court-martial investigation of him.
Now the American Major General just hoped that the remaining members of the helicopter formation could escape from the monster, so that the charge of his mishandling of command would be smaller.
But reality was always cruel, because the remaining thirty to forty helicopters, at the beginning, didn’t follow Major General Lasko’s orders and just hovered around a thousand meters in the air.
This altitude, was far from enough to allow them to escape death, and even though these helicopters were climbing upwards at a speed of one to twenty meters per second, the pilots still despaired before their deaths as that tentacle-like behemoth appeared at their side.
In less than a minute’s time, the original formation of helicopters in the sky, not even a single helicopter could be seen, what appeared on the screen in front of everyone’s eyes was only the oil leakage on the surface of the sea ignited a big fire.
“This …… this his grandmother is also too powerful right? It’s a fighter group that doesn’t seem to be able to wipe out dozens of helicopters so quickly, right?”
When this was over, Peng Fei’s dream scolding voice rang out in the silent pin drop conference room.
