Extraterrestrial parasite - Chapter 491
c486 Operation interception (1)
Originally, the US military had built a certain number of military bases in places such as Australia and New Zealand, but they were not very large and could not be used as outposts this time.
Therefore, it is imperative to borrow the Royal Air Force base in Australia.
With the relationship between Australia and the United States, it is not a big deal to borrow the air force base, as long as they are not allowed to go alone.
Hearing Dempsey’s words, Andrews breathed a sigh of relief and replied: “I still need to go back to discuss this matter, and I will give you an answer as soon as possible.”
“We don’t have much time, Mr. Andrews. I hope you can reply to us within fifteen minutes…because the aviation formation taking off from Guam will arrive in half an hour.”
“What?”
Andrews’ expression changed slightly. This was simply a sign of killing first and then telling the truth, as if he was not worried that they had not promised. But seriously speaking, I really had to agree to this.
The meeting was still going on. Tens of thousands of kilometers away, a bombing formation composed of four B-1B Lancer supersonic strategic bombers and six B-52Hs quickly flew towards the south, sailing at an altitude of tens of thousands of meters. There are also six F-22 stealth fighters providing escort.
As for the earlier four Global Hawk unmanned reconnaissance aircraft, they had already flown to the Ross Ice Shelf in Antarctica at a speed of 630 kilometers per hour and an altitude of 20,000 meters a few hours ago. They could conduct remote reconnaissance at any time through satellite links. The measured data is transmitted back to the U.S. Pacific Command.
When approaching Australia, the F-22 first went to the Australian air force base negotiated to borrow for replenishment and refueling. The ten strategic bombers did not stop and continued to fly forward.
In order not to waste time, these bombers will not land for resupply, but continue to fly, just because there are several aerial tankers waiting in the front position, and they can refuel the strategic bombers at any time.
This kind of baton-like, grouping and tactical route set in advance is the global military strategy that the US military is proud of.
Place military bases around the world. Being able to take off at any time within half an hour and strike any target around the world within 24 hours, this kind of military combat power is really not something that any other country can achieve except the current US military.
After Sydney, we are still close to 5,000 kilometers away from the Ross Ice Shelf. At the speed of the bomber formation, it will take five hours at the fastest to arrive. Until then. It has been two hours since the first MUTO went into the sea.
Therefore, the target of the strategic bombing formation is not the first MUTO, but the second, third, and fourth MUTOs immediately following it.
…
…
The meeting lasted for nearly three hours, with two breaks in the middle. The time was gradually approaching five o’clock in the morning in Washington, but everyone present was not very sleepy and looked directly at the image on the big screen.
There, the image information transmitted back by several Global Hawk drones are observing the first MUTO in real time at low altitude.
Although Dempsey has repeatedly emphasized that this is just a branch of MUTO. The number is not very large, but after everyone saw the width of this torrent reaching more than 350 meters and the endless torrent, everyone could not agree that this number is also very small?
If this is not a lot, then what level of quantity is a lot?
There are still three kilometers to the sea!
A group of clumsy penguins with a length of 50-75 centimeters, white eye circles, blue-green heads, and flippers. There are thousands of them, and they are moving in groups on the ice floes or icebergs along the coast. Larger quantities are still piled up on the edge of the land.
There are so many penguins, probably a team composed of several large families. He was so leisurely and at ease that he didn’t even realize that a few kilometers away, a terrifying unknown creature from another world was sweeping over him.
The penguins were chirping noisily, calling each other non-stop, and some were even flapping their flippers and calling each other, as if such a performance would lead to successful courtship.
It wasn’t until the first torrent of MUTO came within one kilometer that it caused violent vibrations on the ground, which attracted the attention of these Adele penguins.
Unfortunately, it was too late to escape at this time.
The speed of the torrent army reached an average speed of forty kilometers per hour. The width of the rolling MUTO unknown creatures exceeded more than 350 meters, encompassing the entire coast surrounding this area. Those lying on the ground and performing chirps The penguins made a sharp cry and turned around to escape into the sea.
There were not just dozens, but thousands of penguins moving around, giving the impression of countless penguins filling the mountains and plains. However, in front of this torrent of MUTOs, it was still just a joke.
The greasy and tangled tentacles swung over violently, picking up the clumsy running penguins one by one, just like twisting up a towel, twisting them into an object mixed with minced meat and feathers in the air.
More of them swallowed these penguins into their bodies and disappeared in an instant.
Thousands of penguins. Except for the penguin groups on the seaside and on the ice floes, which had time to jump into the sea, more than 90% of the penguins had no time to escape. They were swept and crushed by the MUTO behind them and disappeared into the vast black torrent without even a ripple. Didn’t even lift it.
Seeing such a horrific and tragic scene through the drone, the faces of the big shots in the conference room were not very good-looking, and they all felt worried and frightened.
Such a highly aggressive creature is not a friendly and friendly creature. Once it lands in coastal cities in various countries, what kind of casualties will it cause?
No one can guess.
Of course, the premise of all this is that these MUTOs can really go to sea.
Just like lions and tigers, no matter how powerful they are, it is impossible to swim to the opposite continent. Maybe they are too unfounded. Maybe these unknown creatures can’t swim at all?
“Wow, wow, wow…”
The sound of entering the water is endless, just like magma rolling into the sea. These MUTOs pour into the sea from the land, causing the sea water on the coast to be turbulent and splashing.
The scene is quite majestic.
“This is……”
“my God!”
The surrounding small MUTOs got out of the way, and a huge MUTO squirmed out and plunged into the sea water.
When a creature of this size plunged into the sea, the surrounding seawater was violently pushed away, surging and undulating with such force that everyone in the conference room was sweating.
Seismosaurus, one of the largest well-documented creatures on earth, is only 42 meters long at most. There may be longer individuals, but it is absolutely impossible to exceed 60 meters.
Such a creature can be described as a giant. It can cause earthquake-like vibrations with every move of its hands and feet, so it was named Earthquake Dragon.
But the large MUTO in front of everyone is more than 150 meters long, with an average diameter of six meters. In front of it, even the Seismosaurus has become a small animal, as if it can be torn into two pieces with a casual twist. . (To be continued ~^~)
