More than a dozen automatic gun towers turned quickly, aimed at the group of winged beasts, and opened fire quickly, tearing half of the group into pieces in one round. These anti-aircraft gun towers have the ability to kill the protruding winged beasts with one hit. Just one more round can clear out the entire herd.
However, the remaining winged beasts did not dive, but loosened their claws and threw something down.
It seems that their claws are empty, but when the claws are released, the body rises significantly. Chu Jungui knew what they were catching in an instant.
Several rapid-fire gun towers had also completed their direction adjustments and were firing desperately. The first bullet seemed to hit something. A ball of fire exploded in the air. Several small black dots appeared immediately and were blown apart.
What the protruding winged beast left behind were lizard beasts. These invisible little guys were not just one or two, but several hugged together into a group, and were then carried into the sky by the protruding winged beast.
Chu Jungui calmly controlled the turret and exploded the fallen lizard beasts one after another. Although they are invisible, the test subject can automatically calculate their falling route from the throwing action and intercept them.
However, just like the previous missiles that slipped through the net, the shock wave of the shells exploding in the air completely disrupted the lizard beast's falling route. There were still a few groups of lizard beasts that escaped interception and fell on the base.
As soon as they landed, they continued to spit acid at the surrounding gun towers and bunkers. The defense of most gun towers is actually not very good. A ball of acid can erode through their shells in a minute, rendering them useless. The bunker is slightly better, but it can only withstand it for a longer time, giving the soldiers inside time to escape.
However, when Chu Jungui used all his strength to deal with the aerial threat, the herd of thornback beasts in the distance lacked suppression, and the long-range firepower became fierce again, with whistling thorns falling from the air. Leaving the bunker under such circumstances is tantamount to suicide.
Two lizard beasts happened to land at the opening of a bunker and immediately spit acid inside. The two soldiers hiding in the bunker were instantly covered in acid. They immediately fired back, tearing the lizard beast apart with a string of bullets, but it was already too late. They could only watch as their survival armor melted like ice and snow, and then their own bodies.
The screams lasted only ten seconds.
Chu Jungui's heart tightened. While feeling heartbroken, he also discovered that the lizard beast's acid seemed to become more powerful. An elite warrior wearing survival armor could not survive for half a minute. In other words, they currently do not have any effective means to resist the attack of lizard beast acid.
Another group of winged beasts approached in the air. As soon as he saw their imaginary claws, Chu Jungui aimed all the anti-air gun towers at them, and started the first round of harvesting from a few kilometers away.
More beasts emerged from the forest.
"Lin Xi!" Chu Jungui called out on the communication channel.
"Understood." Lin Xi replied.
The next moment, the earth suddenly shook, and a huge eye-catching fireball appeared on the horizon and rose slowly. A flash of light and heat scorched all the strange beasts within a few hundred meters. The shock wave that arrived subsequently destroyed the completely charred alien beasts, and then blew away those alien beasts that were only scorched on the surface.
All soldiers were alerted in advance and quickly hid in their bunkers.
Strong light and heat swept through the base, followed by a hurricane-like shock wave, knocking down several gun towers at the forefront of the base, and then blew away all foreign objects on the surface of the base, including the surviving lizard beasts.
The herd of protruding-winged beasts in the air were blown to pieces, and a black-winged sky-wing screamed shrilly, half of its wings caught fire, and rolled and fell to the ground.
Lin Xi's micro fusion nuclear bomb was placed in an excellent position, and one-third of the beast wave was destroyed in one report.
Even during a nuclear explosion, nearly a hundred gun towers on the base were firing non-stop. Most of Chu Jungui's thoughts were on harvesting the beasts in the air, and a small part of his energy was spent on dealing with the approaching beasts.
The air herd took a few minutes to regroup, which was usually a sign of strong discipline, but doing so in front of Chu Jungui was tantamount to suicide.
The rhythmic shooting of the anti-aircraft gun tower is not very fast, but every time a gun is fired, an air-winged beast will fall to the ground.
Two black-winged sky beasts that had been wandering around the periphery finally rushed towards the base, and one was shot by Rose. The powerful armor-piercing warhead penetrated directly through its wing root, almost tearing off its entire wing. The other one was used by Chu Jungui to focus fire on five gun towers. These fifth-generation mechanical keyboards were more powerful than the sniper rifle in Rose's hand. The result of the focused fire was that the black-winged sky beast's head, neck and less than half of its chest disappeared instantly.
With the aerial threat eliminated, the beast tide on the ground is no longer a concern. The remaining beast tide only lasted for more than ten minutes before they were all annihilated.
A gun tower fired its last shot, sending a half-limped Thornback flying in the distance, marking the end of the battle.
Chu Jungui looked around and saw no more signs of the enemy, so he breathed a sigh of relief and disconnected from the gun tower. One by one, the soldiers walked out of the bunker and relaxed after confirming that the battle was over.
No one cheered, though.
Chu Jungui assigned some people to be on guard, and then led the rest to rescue the injured.
The focus of the cleanup was still the collapsed ruins, with about ten soldiers still trapped underneath. Fortunately, the bunkers were strong enough and their armors were of high quality. Most of them only suffered minor injuries, and only two or three were seriously injured.
By rescuing the wounded under the rubble, the casualties and losses of the entire battle will come to an end.
There were more than 50 casualties, including 14 killed in battle, 10 seriously injured, and the rest with minor injuries. In terms of material losses, one-third of the main base was destroyed, and more than 50 gun towers of various types were destroyed. All the raw materials stored on the ground were lost, and the production area underground of the main base was also damaged accordingly. The base's comprehensive production capacity was reduced by 20%.
Before the battle began, no one, including Chu Jungui, expected that the new base, which had more than doubled its firepower, would suffer such heavy losses.
If you don't count the initial missile attack, then the attack's beast tide is about 3 C levels, which is not difficult to resist.
But everyone understood that if it weren't for Chu Jungui's precision shooting and multi-target attack capabilities that exceeded common sense, the base might not even be able to escape the first wave of missile attacks. Even so, only two shots that missed the target dealt a heavy blow to the base.
Most of the remaining losses came from airdropped lizard beasts. They killed four people, slightly injured more than a dozen others, and destroyed more than 15 gun towers. The structures of the three bases were also damaged to varying degrees.
In addition, the third largest source of losses was the micro fusion nuclear bomb planted by Lin Xi.
Overall, the losses caused by the traditional beast tide were negligible, but the two brand-new offensive methods almost ruined the No. 2 base.
