"Wow! Wow~!!"

In the shallow sea area where the "door" is located, the vortex becomes more and more turbulent, and the sea water rolls. All kinds of phenomena indicate that there is indeed some huge "thing" about to rush out.

Standing at the edge of the living room, Nova took off the sniper rifle attached to her back with a huge suppressor, and opened the communication report:

"Employee X018 has identified the source of the beast-shaped abnormal creature and determined that it is suspected to be a high-risk abnormal creature. It is expected to arrive at Elizabeth Beach within twenty seconds."

"Received." The Red Queen immediately replied: "The UNSC's Second Fleet and the company's Blood Tears have arrived in the sky above Elizabeth City. Please continue to assist the company in assessing the threat level of abnormal creatures."

"X018 understands."

Finished.

Nova held the sniper rifle, half-crouched on the edge of the living room, pointed the muzzle at the center of the "door", and waited patiently.

Just between two breaths.

"Wow————!"

Along with the huge waves, a giant beast jumped straight out of the sea, and its huge body fell forward in the air.

"Boom - boom -!"

In the end, it caused an earthquake-like movement, "exploding" a circle of sand and dust tens of meters high, and landed on the beach strewn with corpses.

This behemoth is huge, and its overall shape is like a dragon-shaped behemoth that existed on prehistoric planets. Its height is at least more than a hundred meters, and it has black, rough, rock-like skin.

Sharp bone spurs grew all over the body, and dark blue light emitted from the cracks in the skin.

"Roar---!"

Unlike the small beasts, this giant beast roared to the sky as soon as it stood firm on the beach, as if announcing its arrival in Elizabeth City.

"..."

Nova, who had been observing this guy, frowned slightly.

It wasn't that she sensed how tyrannical the other party was, but that the roar made her ears feel uncomfortable.

"Ri~—!"

At this moment, Nova heard the obvious weapon charging coming from above the hotel.

call out----!

Immediately afterwards, an extremely dazzling blue light exploded the giant beast's head almost silently, and the entire upper body disappeared as if it was "evaporated".

And the blue light is still cutting straight across the sea, as if it is going to cross the Atlantic Ocean and reach the Antarctic. It is impossible to see the end of the blue light in the distance.

The giant beast that had just announced its arrival also announced its own death. With only half of its body left, it once again made an earthquake-like movement and collapsed on the beach.

Because the gap was burned into coke by the blue light, the dark blue fishy blood could not flow out in a large area and could only infect the beach around the corpse in a small area.

The "murderer" who killed the giant beast in the blink of an eye was flying past the hotel at low altitude and finally appeared in Nova's field of vision.

A light frigate painted in light gray with the "UNSC Second Fleet" logo printed on the left side of the hull has completely passed the hotel, adjusting the direction of the ship's bow to hover over the corpse of the beast.

The small-caliber pulse cannons on both sides of the ship were aimed at the corpses to maintain vigilance.

Soon, three more light frigates rushed to the beach, opened the hangar gates, and released several Pelicans.

After leaving the hangar, the Pelican landed on the streets on the edge of the beach, unloaded the marines whose equipment was inferior to that of the airborne troops, and began to rescue the trapped citizens and sweep away the remaining beasts in the city.

"X018's judgment is biased, and the latest abnormal biological threat level is low."

Nova, who witnessed the whole process, stood up and said the above words to the Red Queen. At the same time, she attached the sniper rifle to her back again and continued:

"Also, please send a special medical team affiliated to the company to my location."

"Received." The Red Queen responded.

Logically speaking, the actual threat level of the giant beast is not low.

It moves quickly, has hard bones, strong muscles, and is not afraid of radiation.

The behemoth can easily destroy Elizabeth City. Even if a megaton nuclear bomb detonates only two hundred meters away from it, it will not cause any substantial damage to it.

"Unfortunately" what it encountered was one of the most mature technologies possessed by mankind, the electromagnetic gun specifically responsible for breaking points.

As for the purple "liquid" Nova injected into the father just now, it contained a large amount of nanorobots.

These robots, which are smaller than red blood cells and only five microns in size, provide treatment as soon as they are injected into the father's body and maintain the normal operation of body functions.

Today, Umbrella already has relatively complete nanotechnology. Many general hospitals affiliated to Umbrella are equipped with nanotechnology operating tables and treatment instruments.

Once widely promoted, diseases and viruses that have tortured mankind for a long time and are absolutely bad news for many families will gradually be regarded as "just a minor illness".

But now, the nanorobots are just hanging on for dear life. If we want the father to be completely out of danger, we still need more complete treatment.

Moreover, the father and daughter saw her who should not exist, so Nova called a special medical team to take the father and daughter away and modify the memory after completing the treatment.

Not long after the conversation with the Red Queen ended.

Nova saw several transport boats with black paint and red and white umbrella logos appearing in the sky above this area.

A large transport boat landed on the beach and opened its tail hatch, allowing technicians better equipped than the Marine Corps to leave the cabin and prepare for on-site inspection and disposal of the giant beast's carcass.

One of the transport planes, which was smaller than the traditional Fishing Gull and carried no weapons, landed in the square in front of the resort hotel.

Then several "soldiers" wearing black TPS power armor left the transport plane and entered the hotel.

Seeing this situation, Nova knew that this was a special medical team.

Waited for a while.

She re-deployed the HES optical camouflage and disappeared silently into the living room, as if she had never appeared before.

As soon as Nova disappeared, the special medical team rushed to the suite and prepared to move the father and daughter.

Leave the suite and hotel.

I saw three large warships belonging to the UNSC Second Fleet hovering over Elizabeth City.

Two of them are the Goshawk class, which Umbrella has long eliminated, but among the total number of UNSC warships, they are second only to the light frigates.

The Goshawk-class and light frigates are currently the largest number of main warships in the UNSC.

The last one, located between the two Goshawk-class battleships, is also one of the main forces of the UNSC Navy, the Marathon-class light cruiser.

The Marathon class is about 1.3 kilometers in length. The electromagnetic main gun installed in the center of the ship is 450 meters in length and can fire 20-ton tungsten ferroalloy projectiles.

In addition to the main gun, it is also equipped with plasma cannons of various calibers, Gauss and pulse close-in defense guns, and a large number of missile launch bays.

The Second Fleet, responsible for Earth's low-Earth orbit defense, immediately dispatched an advance fleet of seven warships into the atmosphere to support the 9th Airborne Division and the 78th and 103rd Infantry Divisions as soon as they learned that Elizabeth City was under attack. .

Within an hour, the UNSC dispatched three divisions of nearly 50,000 men and seven main battleships to Elizabeth City.
