five minutes ago.
[Yuanwang, this is the observation team 1. Please reply when you receive it. Over. 】
[Observation group 1, Yuanwang received it, please report the target's situation. 】
[The target suddenly started moving northwest twelve seconds ago. Due to the special physiological structure of the target, it is difficult for the drone to embed the tracker in the target's body. The observation team 2 is still working hard. It's over. 】
[Yuanwang received it. Let the Observation Group 2 seize the time. If the target's forward route remains unchanged, it will only take half an hour at most to get out of Manila Bay at its speed. The water depth in the South China Sea is completely deep enough to accommodate the target completely sinking to the bottom of the sea. In that case, it would be difficult for us to track it. 】
【clear. Now it is observed that the 3 groups have reached the extreme position close to the target and are collecting biological waves. If the tracker cannot be successfully placed, we can also use specific wavelengths to confirm the location of the target. 】
[Hopefully, boys, I wish you all the best. 】
[Observe that groups 1, 2, and 3 have received it, completed. 】
…………
Although the human fleet and bombers all withdrew from the battlefield when the attack was ineffective, one team remained. As the nannies responsible for keeping track of Kraken, they monitor every move of this legendary beast from 360 degrees.
Observation Group 1 - Tracking and Recording Group, auxiliary observation tools include maritime satellites, unmanned reconnaissance aircraft, ordinary yachts and small submarines, four-in-one comprehensive control of Kraken; biobehaviorists and biological psychologists The members are also members of this group. They need to combine the video images to deduce Kraken's next actions step by step and make arrangements in advance.
Observation Group 2 - Tracker Installation Group, all members are experienced drone operators. Of course, these veterans at this moment have just experienced a serious setback in their careers: because Kraken's head armor and back armor are too hard, the tracker's fixed drill cannot penetrate into the body at all. The angry leader of Team 2 is discussing with his subordinates the feasibility of using an unmanned submarine to insert a tracker into Kraken's abdomen.
Observation Group 3 - the Biological Material Detection Group, is composed of a group of warriors with both courage and wisdom. They go deep into a place quite close to Kraken alone and collect all the biological residues of the latter. This group has already made an amazing harvest - multiple tentacles chopped off by Xia Yan and Elliot in the previous battle.
To sum up, we can conclude that this is a professional team that can compete with black coffin bearers in terms of expertise, and these people are from IFEB, the full name is Institute for Extraterrestrial Biology, Federal Sixth One of the big special departments.
In the previous article, I didn’t write much about IFEB, which gave the impression that this department is only responsible for naming newly discovered alien creatures, but this is not the case. Although IFEB is based on scientific research capabilities, it enjoys resources and privileges that the other five ministries do not have in many aspects. For example, the satellite monitoring Kraken over the South China Sea at this time was temporarily seconded by IFEB from the federal army. All it took was a phone call from the head of the Southeast Asia division.
Yuanwang, the current flagship of the Southeast Asian Navy's Second Fleet, took over the functions of the main ship after the sinking of the New Element aircraft carrier.
After receiving the report from the observation team, the captain of the Yuanwang fell into thinking. He needed to make a decision within a few minutes: whether to leave or stay.
The outlet of Manila Bay is divided into two waterways, the north and the south, by Corregidor Island. The remnants of the Southeast Asian Navy's Second Fleet are stationed here with the island as the boundary. They lock the outlet like a wedge, hoping to block Kraken in the bay. Lose.
Facts have proved that this can only be human wishful thinking, and the existing warships cannot stop Kraken at all. It is not difficult to see from Kraken's movement trajectory that it is about to enter the South China Sea. The defeated remnants of the Southeast Asian Navy's Second Fleet may not even be able to stop it, let alone delay it.
Without thinking for long, the captain of the Yuanwang quickly issued a retreat order, and the entire fleet sailed westward at full speed to clear the waterway for Kraken.
"It's strange." The captain put down the telescope in his hand: "This monster didn't show such a high moving speed even after it was attacked so strongly before."
"Why is it speeding up at this time, and its route seems very purposeful? Could it be that... is there something in the South China Sea that is attracting it?"
…………
The city gate caught fire, affecting the fish in the pond. This sentence can well describe the situation of Yun Ming and the other three people at the moment.
Kraken did not deliberately attack the Xumizuo, but just passed by it on the way. This "slight" touch was enough to make the Xumizuo, which had an unstable center of gravity on the edge of the sea cliff, completely lose its balance.
"What's wrong?!" Diego inserted his sword deeply into the wall to immobilize his body: "Has Xumizuo been attacked again?"
No one answered him. Yun Ming hurriedly picked up the helmet and put it on. In the process, his broken left arm received another impact, causing further injuries. However, Jiang Yao's good luck and skill were still there. Arriving at the battery, he successfully passed through the hole that Diego had just cut.
Diego swung out a safety rope from his space bag, and the latter wrapped around Yun Ming's waist like a snake. Then he pulled hard and pulled Yun Ming, who was still spinning on the floor, to his side: "Then The woman ran away with the battery!”
It is estimated that the adrenaline injected earlier had an effect, and the pain caused by the new injury was not enough to affect Yun Ming's thinking: "There must be more than one battery! Find it!"
"How do you find this situation?"
"Just grab the sword and secure yourself, I'll do the rest!"
Yun Ming is not trying to be brave. At this moment, the surrounding environment finally allows him to activate his special air flash: Diego's fallen portable lamp is still blooming with light, strong enough for people to see the items in the charging room; Xumizuo has passed through The "topple" stage begins to turn into a "sink" state, which is relatively gentle. The scene in Yun Ming's eyes will not change again and again.
"The battery that Jiang Yao got should have been stored there, but one piece fell out due to various reasons." Yun Ming turned his gaze to the opposite side, where there was a row of cabinet-like machines: "I didn't react when I saw it before. , isn’t this the charging pile of an oversized shared power bank?”
Using his superpower, Yun Ming came to the charging pile. This thing definitely cannot be picked up by customers like the straws in fast food restaurants. It requires the hand of a dedicated staff member to unlock it. Yun Ming, who does not have such a thing, can only choose to violently dismantle it.
"Here's a handy weapon! I can't open it!" Yun Ming faced off with the charging pile for a while and asked Diego for help.
Diego usually carries two swords with him, but his stabbing sword has been lost long ago, but apart from the left sword, he still has one sword.
"then!"
A Chinese-style long sword was thrown by Diego with its scabbard attached. Yun Ming took it out and looked at it, exclaiming: "You, a European, actually use a Han sword."
The owner of this thing was Bai Fei, who left it with Diego when he was trapped in the Xumizuo. In Bai Fei's hands, this Han sword is just a sword with broken hair at best, but Diego's sword heart can make it an unparalleled magic weapon in the world.
Diego never had a chance to use it after he got it, but he didn't expect it to be of great use here. Yun Ming opened the lock with his sword and returned victorious with two batteries in his arms: "This is yours, go to the tarmac!".
(The communicators of the three of them are all broken. They rely entirely on natural sounds to communicate. There is no problem in a quiet environment. In chaos, they can only shout. Speaking loudly is not necessarily caused by nervousness and panic)
Yun Ming and Diego had just passed the cave entrance, and before they could see the full view of the apron, the sinking Xumizuo fell to the bottom of the ruins of Fortress No. 5, naturally causing another wave of vibrations. It was as if the god of bad luck was following Yun Ming. During the shock, Yun Ming was first separated from Diego, and then his legs were pinned down by an uncoupled individual mecha.
"Ah!" Yun Ming let out a horrifying scream under the pain: "Save me! Diego! Jiang Yao!"
The screams turned into sobs in a very short period of time. It was not that Yun Ming had given up hope of living, but that his life was passing quickly: the consequences of blood loss from the aorta in his legs were extremely terrifying.
Just as Yun Ming was about to lose consciousness, the hatch of the individual mecha in front of him suddenly opened.
