BIOLOGICAL SUPERCOMPUTER SYSTEM

Chapter 210 Skirmish (1)



Not even five minutes had passed since the siren rang, and Allan\'s father was already tired. Managing people was a hellish task since they usually didn\'t listen or started fights that the police had to sedate.

This wasn\'t common among the older people, as they had been trained by the military and knew what discipline was, but it was different for the many fifteen-year-olds heading to safety. From a distance, a car could be seen approaching Luca\'s position. "Unit 254; reporting for duty, sir," a police officer resolutely said to Luca.

"Welcome, we need help controlling the crowd here; multiple fights broke out, and we had problems controlling the situation," Mr. Grimes said. After explaining what to do, Allan\'s father dismissed the agents surrounding him.

"Get in position, now."

"Yes, sir," the man replied.

***

"Sir, the 42nd corp is ready."

"Good," Colonel Tiwana replied.

"Let\'s give the thaids a taste of their own blood." Countless people used their powers to shoot down the thaids, especially the 42nd Corp, who aimed at the Yevyagìts.

It looked like the colossal creatures aimed to destroy the city\'s eastern gate as they were heading there. They clearly had to pass the wall and the artillery, but it wasn\'t that hard since they were ten meters tall and could simply walk past the three-meter-tall wall easily. Explosions echoed in the distance.

Heatwaves hit back the soldiers; gunshots reverberated through the battlefield, and the sound of the laser rifles echoed through the field. The sound of various brain crystal power attacks splitting the air, generating explosions, or killing thaids, rang continuously. The artillery shot, creating a sort of strange cacophonous melody not too pleasant to hear, which, though, gave the people on the wall a weird sense of safety.

BOOM

BOOM

BOOM

The soldiers channeled mana through their neural links. They were ready to shoot down any thaid that approached the wall The thaid were infamous for their brutal attacks, and the soldiers knew they needed to stay alert. With mana coursing through their veins, they felt invincible and prepared to defend their city at all costs.

As the thaid got closer, the soldiers gripped their weapons tighter and got ready to use their power. The air crackled with energy for a moment as the two sides faced off, each determined to emerge victorious.

Bolts of fire, earth projectiles, and strange mists moved toward the charging beasts, setting an uncountable number of them on fire, corroding others, and killing the rest in strange ways. The soldiers were amazed at the destruction they were causing but they knew they couldn\'t let their guard down until the thaid were completely defeated. However, with each enemy they killed, their morale grew.

Looking at their blazing fur was a pleasure to the soldiers\' eyes, and their pained shrieks and shrills were music to their ears. The soldiers fought with all their might, determined to eradicate the thaids and protect their land. They knew that this battle was crucial for the survival of their people, and they were willing to do whatever it took to emerge victorious.

As the soldiers watched the enemy beasts in agony, they felt a rush of power and dominance over the creatures. Hearing their cries of pain only reinforced their perception of victory and superiority. Although the sight of the scorching fur gave the soldiers a thrill, the haunting wails of the animals stirred a sense of uneasiness within them.

Witnessing the pain of their adversaries reminded them that the ones who were likely going to suffer were going to be them. The creatures kept advancing, and a sense of urgency arose inside the Colonel Tiwana, but he could do nothing to stop the other monsters as he chose to concentrate the 42nd Corps\' firepower on the twenty giant Yevyagìt charging the wall. If they did not stop them first, the city would fall with certainty.

"Keep concentrating your firepower on the huge beasts," said the Colonel Tiwana. He felt dread in his stomach as he watched the smaller creatures swarm towards the wall.

He wasn\'t the only officer on the wall, but he was the one coordinating the corps\' efforts. Clearly, their success in repelling the beasts would depend on their ability to remain focused and coordinated.

They couldn\'t afford to let anything distract them from the task at hand. "Yes, sir." The soldiers fired continuously at the thaids, while the artillery killed the weaker ones. The brain crystal powers falling in the elementalism category were among the least common, but the range advantage allowed them to be lethal.

Using fire, wind, earth, or water attacks to create different and powerful effects. Though they were not the only ones on the walls, conjurers were amidst the soldiers. These were able to summon creatures to halt the thaids\' advance and proved to be a valuable asset in the battle, as their summoned creatures could make a temporary defense against the thaids.

Who significantly slowed down their otherwise rapid advancement, giving the soldiers more time to strategize, attack, and regroup. The conjurers\' ability to use elemental attacks also added to the soldiers\' arsenal, creating a diverse range of tactics to combat the thaids. Their presence on the battlefield proved to be crucial in defending the city.

Without the presence of the conjurers, the thaids would have easily overwhelmed the soldiers on the walls. The creatures they summoned came in different shapes and forms, but there was something they had in common: they were deadly.

Some had razor-sharp fangs, others had venomous spines, and a few could even wreak havoc with powerful ranged attacks.

No matter their appearance, these creatures were all bound to their creators\' will. Most of the people had weapon conjuring brain crystal powers, which made them particularly suited to fight in melee. But these weren\'t sitting ducks, and while the monsters were far away, most soldiers attacked them with guns, laser rifles, and bombs.

They had been trained to be snipers, gunners, and archers. The ranged soldiers were making bullets, laser rays, and arrows rain down on the mutants like a downpour; the rain was of death, and the creatures were completely soaked by it.

It wasn\'t enough since the number of thaids made it impossible for New Alexandria\'s defense force to halt their advance or kill them all.

Slowly but surely, the beasts were getting closer. It was not only the human side that was attacking, though, as many monsters started throwing objects on top of the walls, destroying cannon after cannon, and killing soldiers and citizens alike.

There were even thaids spitting acidic juices that liquefied people on the spot and damaged the wall, compromising their integrity. However, luckily, the barrier was behind the wall. Among the creatures, one surveyed the situation with the thaid\'s equivalent of a grotesque grin.

The beast emanated a putrid scent and released a toxic gas, which made it impossible for other creatures to approach it since it liquefied them on the spot. It looked like the beast was giving orders to the other creatures, which did not go unnoticed by the human side.

"Sir, urgent report, the Blirdoth has been spotted," a soldier urgently said after seeing the horrifying creature.

"Give me its position," Colonel Tiwana said. The Blirdoth\'s presence could mean trouble for their mission, and Colonel Tiwana knew they had to act fast before it could cause any harm.

He took a pair of binoculars, and by following the soldier\'s directions, he spotted the creature. What he saw left him disgusted; the creature had a huge bear-like body and the face of a rotting dog.

It was emitting a putrid fog, which withered everything away. He knew he had to act fast before the creature caused any harm to anyone else.
