The legend of Tiga

Chapter 2240: Sword from the Sky

boom!
As a raging column of flames rose from the ground, billowing smoke and dust spread in all directions and mixed with the flames to form a huge mushroom cloud, which surged up and rushed straight into the sky amid the loud rumbling explosion.

Before the smoke and dust cleared, the sound of engines was heard, and two tanks moved forward quickly, following the blasted passage, driving on the rugged ground, and moving diagonally downward.

"Hurry up!"

The infantry commander shouted and led the soldiers wearing gas masks and holding large laser guns, following on both sides of the tank, fearless of smoke and darkness, and moving carefully and cautiously towards the underground passage.

Swish!
Horii slid his hands and spread out the yellowed sewer drawing on the table. This was the design drawing of the underground comprehensive pipeline corridor that the Industrial Zone Committee had just sent over.

As early as half an hour ago, soldiers who were conducting reconnaissance deep underground discovered a virus nest, but because it was located in the sewer, tanks could not drive in at all. Precise blasting was needed to force a downward passage for the tanks to enter and destroy the virus nest. This required a blueprint for calculation. Otherwise, if the explosion was carried out casually, the entire sewer might collapse.

That's why it has been delayed until now, but fortunately the blasting was very successful. It created a path wide enough for tanks to pass through without damaging the sewer wall.

The front-line command room is also learning about the sewers here and formulating a battle plan.

"Oh my god, it's huge."

Horii looked at the numbers on the drawing and was surprised beyond words.

It is nearly 20 meters high, nearly 100 meters wide and 400 meters long. This behemoth with a volume of nearly one million cubic meters is supported by sixty reinforced concrete columns. The smallest one is so huge that seven or eight people cannot hug it, and the largest one looks tiny even when half hanging in front of it. The word "magnificent" is not enough to describe its size.

The person in charge who came to deliver the drawings hurriedly introduced: "This is the main reservoir. The sewers of the entire industrial zone converge here, and then are sent to the sewage treatment plant through a six-kilometer-long pipeline, and then discharged into the sea. It can hold millions of tons of water, enough to cope with extreme rainfall."

But his words only brought an even more solemn look.

"Contact the sewage treatment plant immediately and send someone to take a look." Iruma Hui gave the order immediately. If there is a virus nest in the sewer, will there be one in the sewage treatment plant as well?
Whether it exists or not, it is always good to confirm it. If not, you will feel relieved. If so, it should be dealt with as soon as possible.

When Hui Ikuma gave the order, two flamethrower tanks also rushed into the sewer. Several high-power searchlights cut through the darkness like sharp swords, illuminating patches of light.

"Oh my God!"

Horii was completely stunned, his eyes almost popped out of their sockets. Not only him, but everyone in the command room, as well as the vanguard team that broke into the underground, were all shocked by the scene before them.

Inside this huge building, which was as big as a giant's kitchen, there was sticky flesh and blood everywhere. The walls and pillars were full of pulsating capillaries and red lines like nerve synapses. The ground was covered with a thick layer of dark red fungal carpet, which was soft like a sponge and undulating like waves, as if something was surging inside.

The most eye-catching thing is that in the flesh of the ceiling and pillars, there are thousands of translucent ovum-like abscesses, each of which is larger than a human being and filled with unknown liquid. Under the illumination of the searchlight, one can vaguely see dark shadows soaked in it.

Flesh-like tubes as thick as arms and resembling blood vessels are wrapped around these tumor-like sacs like a net bag. Several of them penetrate deep into the egg sac and are connected to the embryo inside. These blood vessels also contract and expand regularly like a beating heart.

Gulu! ! !

This terrifying scene before our eyes could be used directly to shoot a biochemical crisis movie without any modification. The impact it brought was so strong that the soldiers were stunned on the spot and took a long time to react.

"To the command room," the commander sitting in the leading tank said, his voice trembling, "Should we launch an attack?"

"Evacuate first." Iruma Kei said without thinking.

"Why?" Staff Officer Quan Teng turned around in confusion and said, "If two are not enough, send a few more."

"No, this is very different." Iruma Hui rejected the proposal and said solemnly: "Look at these cocoons, they already have embryos."

"That's why we have to eliminate them as soon as possible. Otherwise, once they hatch, it will be a huge disaster." Staff Officer Quan Teng had a different opinion.

With so many embryos, even if they hatch out to be only adult size, there are still thousands of monsters. Especially in this interconnected sewer system, once they scatter and flee, it will be extremely difficult to intercept them.

If they rush into the city through the sewers, even just one of them will cause huge chaos, and the difficulty of chasing them will be doubled. It is better to eliminate them all in one go while they are still in the embryonic stage and concentrated.

"But." Iruma Hui still wanted to be cautious. This was underground. If something went wrong, the soldiers would have no way to escape.

"Since we have different opinions, let's report it and let the headquarters make the decision." Staff Officer Quan Teng said, and he quickly reported the situation. Then he began to mobilize troops and gather more flamethrower tanks. Once the headquarters made a decision, they would immediately rush into the underground and destroy all the flesh and embryos.

As expected, the headquarters made the decision to "attack with all forces", not only requiring all flamethrower tanks on site to go underground to launch an attack on this huge virus nest, but also to mobilize more troops to go down to the sewers from other directions and set up defenses to prevent any monsters from escaping.

Not only that, the Victory Condors on standby in the sky also received a secret order, requiring them to prepare for the attack, adjust the angle of the body, and aim the muzzle at the ground below. As long as they receive the order, they will immediately launch the Victory Tornado Thunder at maximum power to destroy the virus nest in the underground reservoir.

The team members looked at each other in bewilderment at the order. The order was simple and clear, but its meaning was extremely cruel.

Once the momentum goes wrong, the virus nest must be destroyed at all costs.

And this "price" is not just the damage caused to the above-ground buildings, but also to the soldiers who go underground to carry out their missions.

this.
Although they knew that sacrifice was inevitable and they would not even blink, they could not bear to sacrifice others. "Captain, we..." Yumimura Ryo, who was in charge of the fighter plane, did not move. Although this was an order from headquarters,
"Follow the order!" Xibi Gangzhu used a tone that was rather than questioning, and asked the team members to silently start to execute the order. They controlled the Victory Condor to descend the altitude, adjust the angle, check the entire aircraft system, turn on all weapon systems, and prepare to launch the Victory Tornado Thunder.

This is an order. You may not understand it, but you must execute it.

While the team members were busy, Kibi Tsunade slowed down his tone and said, "Things are not that serious yet. We are just taking precautions. The Sphia virus is different from the past. We must not let it spread. Otherwise, this metropolis will be destroyed."

"Yes."

We all understand this truth and know that sacrifice is inevitable. Today it is them, but tomorrow it may be us.

It's just that as a human being, I always have good intentions and I just can't bring myself to do it.

While the Super Victory Team was preparing, the tank troops had already rumbled into the underground and arrived at this huge reservoir.

The tracks crushed the sticky fungal carpet, squeezing out streams of black and purple blood. A foul smell immediately spread, mixing with the original smell of the sewer, making people nauseous. It could rush from the soles of the feet to the top of the head, making people unforgettable for a lifetime.

It’s difficult to move forward!

Even with tracks, it still moves extremely slowly on the sticky, slippery flesh fungus. Fortunately, this tank does not really breathe fire, but a torrent of photons that rush out of the New Max engine, along the pipeline, to the gun barrel, are accelerated and directed by a strong electromagnetic field, and then bombard the flesh and blood egg sac.

scoff!

The thin cyst wall was immediately pierced and then torn apart, and the amber nutrient solution inside gushed out and splashed to the ground, carrying with it the half-grown calf embryo inside, which fell to the ground with a thud. Although there was soft flesh and mushroom cushioning it, it was still knocked unconscious and struggled for several times but was unable to get up.

Seeing this, the soldiers in the tank immediately turned the on-board laser cannon on the right side of the vehicle and aimed it at the monster struggling on the ground. The powerful searchlight on it also turned around, covering it in bright light and illuminating its appearance.

It looks like a human, with a bald tail behind it, two long horns on its head, and its entire body is bare and sticky. It is obviously still in the early stages of development, but was forced out of the body.

"attack!"

The laser cannon had already opened fire, emitting several beams of light that hit the embryo's body and surroundings in succession, creating balls of flames that tore the embryo into pieces in an instant. The surrounding flesh blanket was also blown into pits and blood spurted everywhere, but the blood was not bright red, but a rotten black and purple color, and the smell it emitted was also very strong.

At this moment, the entire underground water reservoir is like stinky tofu, rotten eggs, and thousand-year-old salted fish, which have been soaked in old vinegar overnight and placed under a person's nose. Even if you wear a gas mask, you cannot completely cover up the foul smell.

But at this moment, no one cared about the smell, because the egg sacs hanging from the ceiling had been beating regularly like a heart. However, after the first wave of attack, which shattered several egg sacs and ignited the surrounding flesh bacteria, the embryos in the remaining egg sacs actually moved. Especially under the strong light, one could clearly see the black shadows in the egg sacs stretching their bodies.

"Oh no!"

No matter if the tanks were aiming and shooting, accumulating energy, or deploying in formation, all of them were startled, and the soldiers inside were terrified.

The captain shouted loudly: "Retreat! Retreat! Retreat!"

It's impossible to fight. With so many enemies, even if each of them spit, they will be drowned. If we don't evacuate quickly, we will definitely be surrounded.

Although they were riding in a tank, the thick steel plates could not give them much sense of security.

Because they were facing a monster, splitting mountains and breaking rocks were no big deal. In comparison, these steel plates of dozens of millimeters were probably as thick as paper, which would break if poked or touched.

Moreover, the tanks had obvious shortcomings. They had great frontal combat power, but once they were surrounded by the side and the back, they would be finished. If all the egg sacs jumped out of the monsters, their tanks would be submerged in an instant. Therefore, they had to retreat in a hurry to avoid being surrounded by the monsters.
They did not retreat in a panic. In addition to maintaining their formation, they continued to fire at the surroundings, destroying the egg sacs that were close to them. After the monsters fell to the ground, they were killed immediately.

Although the gunners had tried their best and their hit rate was very high, there were too many egg sacs and those that were destroyed were less than a small number. The black shadows of the monsters in the densely packed egg sacs were already tearing at the sac walls and were about to come out together.

At this time, the Victory Eagle in the sky received an attack order from headquarters. The tone was very urgent, requiring an immediate attack.

Being in the same data link, the Super Victory Team naturally knew why they were in such a hurry.

Because the enemy was alerted, the underground virus nest is now in chaos, and countless monsters are desperately trying to come out of the egg sacs.

Although I don't know why they came out in such a hurry, and what abilities they have after coming out, there are so many of them. If they are allowed to run away, they will become thousands of virus-spreading machines.

"Victory Tornado Thunder, prepare to launch!"

Kihiko Tsunosuke gave the attack order without any hesitation, but Yumura Ryo nodded in understanding with a finger raised in the audience, then pulled the joystick to lift the nose of the Victory Condor slightly, tilting the aiming angle a bit, and then pressed the attack button.

Rumbling--

The power furnace of the Victory Eagle roared, causing the Victory Eagle to vibrate slightly, and then it output full power outward, with endless energy being delivered to the gun barrel, turning into a colorful glare, which shot out at an angle and instantly hit the ground.

The soil and rocks were annihilated in an instant, appearing to be melting, and moving downward like a sword, splitting the sky and earth, breaking through the barrier of soil and rocks, and in the blink of an eye it drilled into the reservoir, breaking through the reinforced concrete on the top layer, and pouring the energy torrent into the reservoir without mercy.
