Chapter 613 Ball Lightning
"The base can no longer be defended."
When Leonard saw the mutants mixed with the security guards on the position, he knew that the base was doomed.
It’s not that he doesn’t have backup weapons, but they are of no use against the tide of mutants.
Even if he destroyed the current wave of enemies, he would no longer have the strength to face the next wave.
"Luckily I was prepared."
Leonard walked quickly towards Zhang Tuohai: "We can't defend this place anymore, we should leave."
"Yeah." Zhang Tuohai had already seen the situation on the battlefield through the drone. The ammunition reserves in the base were running out, and only a basic amount of supporting missile firepower was left. The remaining personnel in the base were all civilian staff, who had difficulty holding guns. It was only a matter of time before the base was breached.
"Initiate the self-destruct sequence and evacuate immediately."
Zhang Tuohai said this as he got into the armored vehicle and drove towards the transport plane not far away.
The remaining civilian staff also ran towards the passenger plane in the distance, carrying their briefcases.
The indicator lights on both sides lit up.
The time bombs that had been buried long ago have begun to activate and entered the countdown stage.
Such a large-scale operation naturally cannot escape the attention of those who are interested.
"Brother , they are trying to run away!"
Many mutants who were watching the battle on a hill also discovered this situation.
"Let Albert stop them and tell them that they should grow wings instead of getting mixed up with those damn infantry. Stop all those who want to leave."
The young man in the suit said coldly.
The order was quickly passed down.
After hearing the order, all the mutants who had wings growing on their backs broke free from the entanglement, flapped their wings and flew towards the airport, ready to stop the plane from taking off.
Looking at the mutants flying towards him, Zhang Tuohai's face turned ugly.
Not to mention the various weapons in their hands, even if they were flying around above the airport, it would pose a great danger to aircraft flights.
Even a small bird can bring down a plane, let alone such a large group of mutants.
They could even stop the plane from flying by just sending two people into the engine.
"Xiao Ai, please clear the area above the airport. Don't let a mutant fly in the sky."
Zhang Tuohai said as he looked at the mutants above the airport.
"clear."
Whoosh whoosh whoosh——
One after another, Standard 6 air defense missiles and Adaz missiles flew towards the mutants in the air.
Seeing this, the mutants wanted to hide away.
However, they cannot match the speed of missiles.
By the time they saw the missiles coming towards them, it was too late.
Boom, boom…
Explosions sounded over the airport.
Balls of flesh and blood fell from the sky.
After a few dozen seconds, the air above the airport was cleared.
"Walk!"
Zhang Tuohai stepped on the accelerator.
The car rushed into the cabin of the transport plane.
"Hurry, take off." Leonard shouted hurriedly beside him.
The cargo door of the transport plane slowly rose and the plane took off on the runway.
The Boeing 777 passenger plane loaded with researchers also slid into the take-off track and began its run-up to take off.
Seeing that his air force was completely lost, and the person who caused all this was about to flee as if nothing had happened, the man in the suit's face had turned purple.
He had gathered these air forces with great difficulty, and they had always been regarded as the most elite assault force, which he had never been willing to use. However, they were wiped out in such a place on their first appearance. This made him feel like a huge stone was blocking his heart.
He clenched his fists tightly, turned around suddenly and said, "Go, bring the rhinoceros beetle here!"
"But, that person said that this thing cannot be used under normal circumstances. I think..." A red-haired mutant came over and said.
However, before he could finish his words, his head exploded with a loud bang.
Like a shattered watermelon.
"Does anyone else have any objections?" the man in the suit asked coldly.
"No." The people around were silent and no one dared to speak.
"Why don't you go quickly?" the man in the suit snorted coldly.
Everyone went down quickly.
A moment later, a giant beetle like a rhinoceros beetle walked out of the fog.
This giant beetle is more than 20 meters long and five or six meters tall. It is pitch black all over, just like a behemoth.
At its front end is a black mouthpart with a diameter of about one meter, emitting a faint light.
The rhinoceros beetle-like beetle appeared, pointed its mouthparts at the Boeing 777 that was climbing in the sky, and began to breathe deeply.
As the beetle breathed, its originally dark tail began to glow fluorescently, like a giant firefly.
Suddenly, a ball of azure blue light spewed out from the beetle's mouthparts and flew towards the Boeing 777.
That group of orchid light was like a ball of lightning. It seemed slow and erratic like a balloon, but in fact, it was extremely fast. In the blink of an eye, it floated onto the body of the Boeing 777 passenger plane and then penetrated into the body like a ghost.
A few seconds later, the fuselage of the Boeing 777 began to disintegrate, and large pieces of particles fell off the 777.
In just a few seconds, the huge machine disappeared without a trace, as if it had never appeared.
This scene was seen clearly by Zhang Tuohai and Leonard who were watching from below.
Seeing this scene, even Leonard, who had seen countless big scenes, couldn't help but tremble in his legs.
"What is this thing, it's so powerful."
This azure ball of light is really terrifying.
It was completely beyond his understanding. It floated over without any sound, and then such a huge passenger plane was completely disintegrated.
Silently.
If the Boeing 777 was shot down by a missile, Leonard might be scared, but not to this extent.
Because these are all within his knowledge.
However, this type of attack was completely beyond his understanding. The fear of the unknown and the threat of death made it difficult for him to control his emotions.
Zhang Tuohai also frowned.
He had never seen this kind of attack mode before, and had never heard of it even in cutting-edge military channels and magazines.
Not even in science fiction movies...wait!
Speaking of science fiction movies, Zhang Tuohai suddenly remembered a movie he had read, which was about ball lightning. According to legend, anyone hit by ball lightning will turn into ashes.
Could this also be a similar kind of lightning?
Just as Zhang Tuohai was guessing, the huge black beetle once again aimed its mouthparts at the transport plane Zhang Tuohai was riding on, and a ball of azure electric light floated over again.
