372: Chapter 256 Dawn Strikes Out 372: Chapter 256 Dawn Strikes Out Inside the command vehicle, everyone who witnessed the scene abruptly stood up.
The developnt of the situation had completely defied their expectations, as they hadn’t anticipated this monster to have such a trick up its sleeve.
“Indeed… We’ve been careless… This plant even possesses the capability of emitting poison gas across a wide area; it’s essentially a war machine…”
Hu Hu muttered as he watched the screen.
Next to him, a few officers from the Azure Dragon Army were also briefly bewildered, but everyone quickly snapped back to reality as there was no ti for delay now.
“The enemy has biochemical combat abilities, we need to equip ourselves with gas masks and launch another assault to rescue!”
“Right!
We have gas masks here, we can equip them rapidly and re-engage in combat!
This ti we must kill that monster!”
A few officers made suggestions one after another, and others nodded in agreent when they heard them.
“No!
Gas masks won’t protect against that kind of poison fog!”
Suddenly, an old biology professor beside them spoke up, and everyone turned their gaze toward him.
The forr stood up, looking at the monitoring screen, and said in an extrely determined voice:
“Based on the condition shown by the warriors who were just poisoned, just gas masks obviously aren’t enough!”
“Judging by appearances, this yellow fog must penetrate into the human body through the skin, and its effect is very fast!
It might be a type of neurotoxin, and only a biohazard suit can provide resistance!”
Upon hearing this, several people were sowhat stunned.
Protective suits?
Where the hell do we have such things!
That’s not standard-issue strategic gear, and to deploy them, we’d have to request delivery from the base, which would take so much ti!
The Azure Dragon Army does have protective suits, which are far superior to standard dical suits.
These suits require the use of an oxygen tank to breathe once worn and can even resist nuclear radiation damage.
But, because this is not a regularly deployed equipnt, and the incident was so urgent, they hadn’t brought any with them when they ca to assist.
Now, to use them, they must be requested from the base.
“Damn it!
If there weren’t so many hostages in there, I would have awarded it with a couple of big missiles by now, blowing it flat, and it wouldn’t get a chance to be so arrogant!”
A commander slamd his palm forcefully on the table, venting his pent-up emotions.
However, with his palm strike, the entire vehicle actually shook a bit.
Everyone subconsciously looked at the man, who also lifted his hand sowhat dazedly to look at it, montarily confused by what had just happened.
But the next second, that shaking ca again, this ti more violently than before.
The command vehicle was nearly flipped over, and items scattered across the table.
“Bang!
Bang!
Bang!”
“Dada Dada Dada Dada!”
Outside, a series of gunshots and cannon fire erupted, interspersed with many people’s roars.
“Enemy attack!
Enemy attack!
All hands to battle stations!
The vines are coming!”
Hu Hu’s expression changed, and he imdiately pulled back the curtains.
Outside, they were surrounded by dozens of massive tentacles.
Just like what they had seen on East Crossing Street earlier, the vicinity was full of the thick, thorny branches!
Each of their attacks could directly send people flying, and armored vehicles were entirely ineffective against them, effortlessly torn apart.
The monster from the research institute has found its way here!
When Zhang Xiaoman arrived here aboard the Dawn, the scene before his eyes was that of this temporary command camp being attacked.
Just monts before, he used the Spirit Detection Technique to track these vines through the air, leading him here.
Then he witnessed the vines erge from underground, beginning their assault on a troop here.
He checked the cooling ti of the Soul Raiding Skill, still five minutes before it was ready, rendering him unable to deploy a powerful skill to help them.
“They…
are they the Azure Dragon Army…
I see, so that’s why that guy ran here, to attack these people.
No wonder he was in such a hurry to leave, looks like there’s trouble at the back…”
Below, since launching their surprise attack, the vines had maintained an overwhelming advantage.
They all extended directly from the ground, and against such a direct and devastating strike, modern armies found it hard to defend effectively.
“What to do…”
Zhang Xiaoman looked at the situation below and hesitated, eager to help, but his own Dark Energy was insufficient, and his efforts wouldn’t be of much use if he went down.
However, if he just waited five minutes, it would probably be too late—judging by the Destructive Power of these vines, once they got close, the fragile humans probably wouldn’t last even two minutes.
The ti he had to think was dwindling, and each second was critical.
“Could it be that I must use that move now…”
Zhang Xiaoman hesitated for a mont, then suddenly his eyes caught sight of the weapon control panel on the Dawn, and a light bulb went on.
“That’s right!
I can use the Dawn!”
He snapped back to reality, recalling that his Anti-gravity Car had been upgraded to an all-purpose model, significantly boosting its firepower.
Without a mont’s hesitation, Zhang Xiaoman imdiately called upon Star Rank to take over and execute the attack command for him.
As for the precious ammunition of the Anti-gravity Car, he hadn’t even considered it.
Sure, the ammunition was precious and temporarily irreplaceable, but what was that compared to human lives?
If he didn’t act now, what was the point of establishing the Star Alliance?
Upon receiving the command, Star Rank imdiately began to take control of the Dawn, and the weapons control port began to operate unmanned.
Below, the warriors of the Azure Dragon Army were fiercely resisting the vine attack.
But because they couldn’t use heavy weapons, the damage they were inflicting on the vines was very limited.
Hu Hu and his companions were relatively lucky, as their command vehicle had been hit a couple of tis at the beginning but had not been targeted again since.
Regrettably, the vehicle was now immobile due to critical damage to key components.
Hu Hu was currently standing by the window, watching everything outside and issuing combat commands to the soldiers via communicator, as best as he could.
The other commanders were doing the sa, all trying their hardest to organize a counterattack.
Suddenly, Hu Hu, who was by the window, felt a dark shadow envelop him.
He instinctively shuddered, knowing that they might have caught the attention of the monster.
Just as he was about to dodge, he instinctively looked up, and his footsteps ca to a halt.
In front of him, a massive black flying craft slowly materialized midair.
From the gradually fading optical barrier on its surface, it was clear that the other party possessed an unimaginable invisibility ability.
Recognizing the familiar scene before him, Hu Hu imdiately thought of the person he had seen before.
Although they used different vehicles, his intuition told him there had to be a connection.
