Extraterrestrial parasite - Chapter 487
c483 Mass evacuation
“Huhu…”
There is always no shortage of strong winds above Category 4 on the Antarctic continent. People who can do scientific research here have long been accustomed to such winds and do not think it is that strange.
At Amundsen-Scott Station, people who are usually relatively leisurely are extremely busy at the moment.
There are countless people who pack up equipment and data, organize observation data, and prepare their own belongings.
The large scientific research station, which can accommodate 250 people, received a notice from above a few hours ago and everyone needs to evacuate immediately!
This is definitely an order that is inconsistent with regulations, common sense, and unbelievable!
Before Dr. Monk, the person in charge of the scientific research station, could refute, he was scolded by the colonel: “This is an order from the federal government and must be carried out unconditionally! You have no chance to negotiate!”
“This won’t work, I want to go with…”
Armonk stopped silently mid-sentence. On the other side of the video conversation, the person standing suddenly changed. He was actually Dr. Sberik, a professor at the Federal National Laboratory and a member of the Scientific Committee.
There are also reputations and positions in the scientific community. Dr. Sperik has a much higher reputation and power than Armonk. Someone who can directly supervise him will definitely be more useful in what he says.
With just a few words from Dr. Siberik, Armonk could only suppress all his questions and immediately arranged for all personnel to pack their belongings and prepare to evacuate.
This sudden order made many people feel strange. There was no explanation, no comfort, and no reason. What they want is for everyone to implement it unconditionally, and many scientific researchers are very dissatisfied.
But when they saw the ice and snow runway outside the scientific research station, a Hercules transport plane came through the clouds and slowly landed on the runway, everyone opened their glasses wide.
Not just one!
After the first transport plane arrived at the end of the runway and changed its direction, another Hercules transport plane suddenly came over, and “Chi Chi” began to taxi on the runway. Gradually slow down.
What happened?
Staring at the large number of heavily armed soldiers filing out of the transport plane, many people had already realized that something was wrong.
This is so abnormal. Why are so many soldiers sent here?
There were many people looking outside the runway through the windows. Many people couldn’t help but slow down their movements and looked curiously at the soldiers below walking down the runway.
“Who is Dr. Armonk?”
With a large number of soldiers and various weapons and equipment that came off the transport plane… the person who was at the front was obviously the supreme commander of these people.
“I am.”
I saw the transport plane landing on the runway early. Armonk came out with a few people.
“Dr. Armonk. I am Colonel Nutrilite, in charge of your evacuation. Are you ready?”
Without holding Armonk’s outstretched hand, Nutrilite seemed not to look directly at Armonk and the others, and his tone was extremely cold.
“Please give me some more time…” Armonk cursed in his heart, but that was all he could say.
“Five minutes, I’ll give you five more minutes.”
Nutrilite looked down at his watch, then raised his head and gave a limited time.
“Five minutes? This is impossible. You have no idea how much equipment and data there is to sort out…”
Armonk was stunned for a moment, then immediately expressed his objection.
“How much time do you need?”
“At least two hours…”
“impossible!”
Nutrilite rejected Dr. Armonk’s request and said seriously: “This is an order from His Excellency the President. All personnel at the Antarctic research station must be evacuated immediately… I’m sorry, Dr. Armonk, we don’t have much time, and we have More important tasks are waiting for us, so we only give you five minutes. Do not pack any more items. All personnel should evacuate to the cabin immediately!”
“you……”
Armonk turned pale with anger when he faced the tough and cold officer. But he had received orders from Dr. Siberik before, so he knew that he would file a complaint with the superiors. It certainly won’t change the established facts.
He could only reluctantly accept the five-minute order, lower his head and give a few instructions, asking the people next to him to go back and tell everyone not to waste time sorting out data and packing items, and everyone went downstairs to the transport plane on the runway.
Maybe they realized something was wrong, but no one dared to object.
No matter how bold a person is, it is impossible to ignore the cold muzzles of guns in the hands of those fully armed soldiers.
We walked to the runway honestly, then lined up to sign in and board the plane.
“Bernie, is everything done?”
Seeing that Armonk had no choice but to carry out his order, Nutrilite turned to look at a soldier behind him.
Compared with the other soldiers, the man standing behind Colonel Nutrilite had no distinctive figure or equipment. Originally, all the soldiers were wearing skull masks, covering half of their faces. However, this man not only wore a skull mask, but also had a skull mask on his eyes. He also wore a pair of sunglasses, completely covering his entire face.
It was impossible to see clearly what he looked like.
“It’s done, no problem.”
A slightly hoarse voice came out of Bernie’s mouth, and he calmly answered Colonel Nutrilite’s question.
“That’s good. You can take someone in later to check and see if everyone has evacuated. If someone disobeys the order…”
The colonel’s eyes were extremely cold: “I allow you to kill on the spot!”
“yes.”
Bernie simply replied “yes” and led a team towards the building unit of the scientific research station.
After decades of construction and renovation, the Amundsen-Scott Scientific Research Station is no longer the crude appearance it once was. After several relocations, not only has a regularly operating ice and snow runway been built to accommodate large transport aircraft After landing, a yellow-brown three-story building was built in the shape of a “mountain”.
There are eight building units in total!
It is one of the largest scientific research stations on the Antarctic continent!
A large number of scientific researchers stay here all year round and are responsible for many scientific research tasks.
But now that they had been ordered to evacuate from above, when Bernie and others walked in, the lonely corridors and laboratories showed that no one was waiting for them anymore.
“Chichi…Bernie, how’s the checkup going?”
“Sir, there is no problem. All personnel have been evacuated.”
After summarizing the inspection results of the remaining personnel, Bernie replied calmly.
“Okay, we still have an hour and a half before the first batch of MUTOs will arrive. Because this mission is special, we don’t need too many people to stay behind to complete the mission… As long as the people I booked earlier, the others Let’s all evacuate together.”
“Um.”
After hanging up the radio, Nutrilite’s cold face finally showed a trace of worry. He stared at the edge of the continent under the skyline and took a deep breath to hide the tension in his heart.
He had to be nervous.
Although as a veteran who has completed hundreds of missions, it stands to reason that there should be nothing in this world that can make him nervous, but in fact… the enemies he needs to face this time are not human beings at all. It’s an abnormal creature of unknown origin!
With its terrifying physical appearance and strong desire to attack, Nutrilite rarely felt nervous after watching the relevant reconnaissance videos.
“This time I really risked my life…”
According to Nutrilite’s knowledge, a group of bombers and fighter jets had taken off five hours ago near the Guam military base, flying over the edge of Australia and directly approaching the Ross Ice Shelf, preparing to block the rapid spread of MUTO at close range in the first phase.
Although many people had expressed opposition before this, they believed that it was irrational to use force when the enemy and we were unknown and did not understand MUTO.
However, when the photos taken, the scientific research stations that MUTO passed by and were submerged in unknown biological groups, and the final call for help, many people shut their mouths.
In just a dozen hours, several summer scientific research stations in the United States, Russia, Australia, and Germany were destroyed before they could be rescued. According to the drone reconnaissance results, no survivors were found. That is to say, first It is not said whether these MUTOs have the intelligence and civilization of humans, but it is obvious that they are not friendly to humans.
Coupled with the rising number, it soon exceeded at least 100 million, and the growth has not stopped. No matter how optimistic people are, they cannot calm down at all.
It’s so scary. Even if they are all mice or ants, it is enough to make people feel extremely frightened. What’s more, they are generally seven or eight meters long and look like python-like monsters, not to mention the unknown large terrestrial creatures that are hundreds of meters long. .
If such a quantity were put into the sea…
I don’t know if these monsters can survive in the sea, but no one will dare to take this risk. If such a number of MUTOs successfully enter the sea and spread to the whole world…
Who can bear this level of disaster?
The U.S. Third Fleet operates in the eastern Pacific waters, from the Arctic Ocean in the north to Antarctica in the south. After receiving an order from the central government in Washington, it immediately set off for Antarctica.
The Third Aircraft Carrier Fleet Battle Group, composed of a total of 10 task forces, quickly slid away from the waves in a majestic formation. It was expected that just a few hours after Nutrilite and the others arrived here, they would approach the edge of the Antarctic ice shelf.
The Seventh Fleet has also set sail, including the rest of the fleet groups in the Western Pacific and Indian Ocean regions, and is also approaching Antarctica.
Although China, the United States and Russia have reached a consensus in a short period of time, at this time, only the United States has the ability to immediately block the military power of MUTO on the Antarctic continent.
The Chinese navy is not weak, but it is not yet capable of gathering a large number of naval forces for expeditions in a short period of time.
As for Russia, its response was slow and its equipment was outdated. They were stuck in the north and could not set sail for the Antarctic in just a dozen hours.
Therefore, the United States can only grit its teeth and carry out advance sniper interception missions. (To be continued ~^~)
