Containment Control Starts With the Umbrella
Chapter 393: Urban war
"Containment control starts with the umbrella (
Dome City No. 5.
This dome city, which has just been completed in less than five years, is far less dense and prosperous than the previous four cities.
Even so, the population of Dome City No. 5 is equivalent to the sum of the two newest cities, six and seven, reaching 1.5 million people.
therefore…
When the citizens found out that the city had suffered a large-scale alien attack, they all panicked and ran towards the junction of the No. 4 city. The stampede and bloodshed occurred almost every second.
Looking down on the city from the perspective of the top of the dome, you can see the streets and alleys of the city, crowded with citizens, rushing towards the underground entrance on the west side.
At the eastern end of the city, you can also see tens of thousands of aliens, which are quickly shuttled through the streets and alleys, slaughtering and hunting the citizens who fell behind.
However, in the central square of the city center, nearly a thousand ‘united’ soldiers formed a circular line of defense, blocking the impact of aliens as much as possible.
These'united' soldiers are the Marine Corps officers and agents led by Hicks, Hudson, and Yulia, as well as a large number of the UNSC Army, and the Hozette Enterprise that chose to cooperate with Umbrella in order to survive. soldier.
The main firepower output of these soldiers was the four Spartans led by Robert, and nearly three hundred **** paratroopers and heavy soldiers.
On the front line...
"Papa! Papa!"
"Howl~——!"
"Eleven o'clock! There is a big man! Hit the fire!"
"Fire! Fire!"
"Sir!! When will our support arrive!!"
The scene on the front line was extremely chaotic, filled with pulses, the flames of Gaussian guns, the unique howling of aliens, and the roar of soldiers.
The soldiers used mechanical skeletons to pull the cars abandoned by the citizens, pile them on the main road leading to the west, and use these cars as shelters to shoot at a steady stream of aliens.
Only the ‘five people’ are an exception. Their power armor is wrapped in an emerald green energy shield, and they use their custom-made close weapons to block the alien 20 meters in front of the bunker.
Originally, citizens or ordinary soldiers had only been slaughtered when they encountered aliens, but it seemed that they were put on the limit team led by Robert.
The purpose of the five Spartans standing in front of the bunker was to try their best to delay the alien's pace. After all, the alien moved extremely fast.
"Hey!!"
At this time, Hicks, who was changing the magazine of his Gauss gun, seemed to have received the latest instructions, and said loudly to Robert who was "open unparalleled" in the alien group:
"The boss has personally led the fleet to Sirius IV! Support is coming!!"
"What? Support is coming?"
"Great! That's our Umbrella's zero fleet!"
"Mad! To death these bitch-like beasts!"
Hearing that the support fleet has arrived, the morale of the soldiers staying here has been greatly boosted. They all pulled the trigger very excitedly, ‘spilling’ the long backlog of emotions.
"Extreme team, return to the bunker!"
"Yes!"
As for Robert, when he heard that the support had arrived, he immediately led the four Spartans under his command. He immediately broke away from the alienation and returned to the bunker piled up by cars.
"What's the boss's latest order?" Robert asked, walking quickly to Hicks.
"Wait..." Hicks was listening carefully to Serena's notice. After a few seconds, he raised his head and said to Robert:
"The boss asked us to continue to evacuate the citizens of City No. 5 and retreat to the connection point, and it is expected that in ten minutes, a large number of support troops will enter the city through Airport No. 5 to help us evacuate the citizens together and give us ammunition supplies."
"Very good, then..."
It’s just that the two commanders have not yet been able to discuss how they should act next...
"Boom——~!" A loud bang attracted the attention of everyone present.
Hearing the sound and looking towards the west of the city, only a heat wave swept in and shattered the glass of most buildings.
not only that…
"Boom!" (x5)
Everyone present felt five more shocks, and then they could vaguely feel the dull movement of "Boom~Boom~".
"It seems that the boss directly ordered the destruction of the junction of City No. 6, which can indeed effectively prevent the attack of the brutes." Hicks guessed.
"Yeah." Robert also nodded in deep agreement, and then looked at the distance behind them, the citizens who were trying their best to escape, whispered:
"Lieutenant Colonel, since the support arrives right away, I think it is unwise to stay here, and our ammunition is about to run out.
Moreover, the attack direction of the anomalous creatures is not only the main road, they can also go behind us from other alleys and trails, and then attack the citizens...
Therefore, I suggest abandoning this location, assisting and protecting the citizens to retreat toward the underground entrance, and guarding the underground entrance to prevent abnormal creatures from entering the junction between the fifth and the fourth. "
"Well, you're right." Hicks had no objection, raised his right hand and gestured, loudly commanding:
"Everyone retreats in the direction of the underground entrance!"
"Yes!"
After hearing Hicks' order ~lightnovelpub.net~, all the soldiers responded in the communication and retreated to the west of the city alternately.
"Extreme Team." Instead, Robert squeezed his energy sword with his right hand, stretched his left hand to the built-in storage box at the waist, and said calmly:
"Stay here behind with me and give these **** a taste of plasma grenade."
"Yes." (x4)
The four members of the Extreme Team also held their respective close weapons tightly and took out a cylindrical plasma grenade from the storage box.
"Beep~! Beep-beep-!" (x5)
Robert and the others almost pressed the button of the grenade together, and then they threw them towards the car shelter not far in front of them, and then turned around and followed the large group.
"Hiss~!!!"
The alien army at this time has completely'engulfed' the car shelter built by the soldiers, closely following Robert and the others behind the palace.
"Dididi-~!!!" (x5)
The reminder sound of the grenade is about to reach its peak.
"hiss?"
Just when a few aliens were curious about these grenades that flashed with blue light and made a harsh sound...
"Boom!" (x5)
Like five dazzling blue explosions, the hot plasma instantly melted the nearby alien shapes.
"Boom————~!"
The explosion of the grenade also detonated the car’s built-in hydrogen battery, and its explosive strength was close to the equivalent of 500 kg of TNT.
The shock wave rushed to the surroundings and raised a "one" mushroom cloud mixed with blue electric current, destroying the area guarded by the human soldiers just now.
Of course, because of this explosion, the aliens will not be able to pass this main road again in a short time.
