Chapter 181: Chapter 181 Battle with the Scorpion King
Outside the temporary base in the radiation zone, a Chinook armed transport plane marked with the logo of the Human Rights Organization once again arrived in this area.
However, this time, it was not just a transport helicopter that came, but also ten Apache armed combat helicopters.
As this group of air forces landed outside the stronghold, the people who arrived with them were also the ones that all the survivors in the entire stronghold had to wait respectfully for.
The President of the People's United Nations, Lyon, wearing a high-end military uniform and holding the hand of Kevilla, who was wearing a police uniform, walked off the plane under the escort of several guards.
"Come to think of it, we haven't left Georgia for nearly five or six years."
After getting off the plane, looking at the people who came to welcome him, Leon turned back and said to Kevera with some emotion:
"You sit in an office every day now. Are you still as agile as before? Is your shooting still as accurate as before?"
Kevila rolled her eyes at her husband and snorted:
"Huh, do you look down on me?"
"Fighting and shooting have always been my daily compulsory courses. Don't you know whether I am good at it or not?"
Although he has a relatively docile personality, Giant Tom has accumulated a lot of anger from being beaten passively. After receiving Clementine's order, the armed giant in full body armor roared wildly and smashed the mutant crab's face with the shield in his hand.
Hearing Leon's question, Sherman, with his stubble on his face, breathed a sigh of relief and replied:
"Brother-in-law, the situation is not bad. According to our positioning system, about 90% of the micro high-explosive bombs have been swallowed by this guy."
Relying on his own weight of nearly twenty tons, his muscles bulged, and his legs dragged two deep grooves on the ground, tightly holding the mutant crab's movements.
In this way, carrying these special equipment weighing nearly 20 tons on his back, the armed giant Tom began to move slowly towards the direction of the oasis.
However, it was obvious that the intelligence of this mutated giant scorpion was not as high as Leon imagined. After it finished eating the bloody corpse of the packhorse, it was still not satisfied and took the mechanical dog with a metal structure to its mouth and chewed it a few times with its mutated and ferocious mouth.
In the eyes of the survivors of the Human League who were watching in hiding, its huge claws and four whip-like stingers on its tail turned into a group of afterimages, with blood and flesh flying everywhere and the creaking of metal being destroyed.
Many of the people who came this time were talents from various fields. After discussing for a long time, we finally summed up several relatively reliable solutions.
.........
The 35mm large-caliber bullets roared madly towards the mutant giant scorpion's head at a speed of nearly 60 to 70 rounds per second.
Lyon, who was in charge of the command center, also seized the opportunity and gave Sherman the order to detonate.
However, before Clementine could react, the furious mutant giant scorpion had already waved its four poisonous tails and began a dazzling attack on various parts of the armed giant's body.
After realizing his danger.
After a brief greeting, everyone entered the hall of the temporary base and began to explore how to deal with the giant mutant scorpion.
Jesus paused and glanced at the others.
Resources were originally scarce in the wasteland world, and it was only by relying on the rare oases in this area that the mutant giant scorpion was able to live a happy life of sitting back and waiting for food to come to its door.
Under Clementine's command, the armed giant Tom decisively threw away the huge square shield in his left hand and grabbed the mutant giant scorpion's tail that was exposed because of its turning around.
"However, because the time was short, we did not get too much specific information."
However, apart from the members of the Jesus Team who had seen the real thing with their own eyes, no one else had much say in this matter.
Bang! Snap!
In the blink of an eye, the armed giant just turned around and only had time to put the square shield in front of him, and the sound of metal and shell collision resounded throughout the oasis.
But it is because they are about to face a super mutant with fast movement speed and extremely strong attack power.
Soon, the armed giant who was originally sitting on the stone slowly stood up, picked up a huge square shield in his left hand, and raised a special Gatling machine gun weighing almost half a ton in his right hand.
Destroying someone's job is an irreconcilable feud.
However, although the time was short, the video clearly recorded the appearance of this giant mutant scorpion, as well as the speed and strength it displayed when hunting.
Leon didn't feel offended by this. The fact that the little girl could be so casual in front of him only showed that she didn't treat him as an outsider.
Leon coughed lightly and said to Clementine who was looking at him:
Then, after just a short rest of two or three minutes and a few breaths, the armed giant Tom raised the huge square shield in his left hand and began the demolition work like using a hammer.
The high temperature of several thousand degrees immediately caused fatal damage to the mutant crab's head, and also stopped its escape for a few seconds.
After formulating the battle plan, we did not waste too much time and immediately began to implement it.
With a click, the tail that was originally held in the armed giant's hand suddenly fell off from the root of the mutant giant scorpion's tail for unknown reasons.
However, it is unknown what the structure of this mutant creature is. After being injured by nearly ten kilograms of high-explosive bombs in its body, even though dark brown blood flowed out of the gaps in its shell all over its body, it still failed to kill the mutant giant scorpion.
However, the strongest defenses are often destroyed from the inside. A ten-kilogram high-explosive bomb can blow the intestines of even the largest blue whale into pieces, turning it into minced meat. No matter how perverted this mutant giant scorpion is, it will definitely be severely damaged.
However, this near-death crisis actually stimulated this super mutant creature.
Even because they want to obtain the z element in the body of this super mutant, they must try their best to keep the corpse intact and cannot use weapons of mass destruction.
A conspicuous sandbag was arched a few dozen meters away from the oasis.
He turned his head and looked at the other side of the command center. Clementine was standing in front of a display screen composed of many high-definition projections, staring at one of the screens in a daze.
Leon lowered his eyebrows and thought for a few seconds. Unlike others, he did not take the scorpion's attack power seriously.
It was said to be late, but it happened so fast. In almost the blink of an eye, the mutant giant scorpion rushed out from the sandbag and quickly came to the location of the packhorse and the mechanical dog.
The food delivered to its mouth for free may make the mutant giant scorpion eat it comfortably, but it will never imagine that free things are the most expensive.
"Mr. President, after informing you of this news, we also used reconnaissance drones to go to the oasis again and gather intelligence on the monster."
The mutant giant scorpion's body paused slightly, and even its tail, which was swaying from side to side due to the joy of eating, instantly drooped. It silently spit out the mechanical dog that was bitten and somewhat deformed, and swept it aside with its huge claws in disgust. Then it began to turn its body and slowly moved away towards the sand dunes outside the oasis.
However, as the supreme leader, he does not have to do everything personally. The main reason he came here in person, in addition to seeing to what extent the super mutant has changed, is to prevent accidents and be absolutely sure.
So, Lyon raised all his thoughts and doubts, and asked the elites present to think of countermeasures for him.
Even the mutant giant scorpion's steel-like black shell could not withstand the power of the Gatling gun. Countless high-powered bullets shattered the shell on its head and penetrated into its body, ruthlessly destroying various organs in the mutant giant scorpion's body.
A dazzling laser shot over from several hundred meters away in the blink of an eye, hitting the mutant giant scorpion's head, where the shell was shattered by the Gatling laser cannon.
On his back, he was carrying a special bullet box containing nearly tens of thousands of bullets, which was connected to the Gatling machine gun.
Jesus was quite respectful towards Leon. Having been in the Human Rights Alliance for so many years, he was well aware of the power and prestige of the man in front of him.
That afternoon, a strange scene appeared in a small oasis a few kilometers away from the temporary base.
The mutant giant scorpion completely ignored the bullets that were still pouring down, allowing its body to be riddled with holes. It turned around at its fastest speed and tried to escape towards the sand dunes.
Out of nowhere, a guy came out and ruined its job. Even though the mutant giant scorpion's intelligence was not high, out of its instinct to protect its food, it no longer cared about hiding and hurriedly crawled out of the sand pile.
The mutated giant scorpion, which had not suffered any harm since its mutation, could not help but let out a sharp wail. Its instinct for survival made it dare not continue fighting with the iron lump in front of it.
Bang! Snap! Clank!
Under everyone's gaze, it took nearly a few minutes before the armed giant Tom arrived at the oasis.
As the two giant creatures wrestled with each other and the mutant scorpion began to run out of strength, Clementine finally gave the order to attack.
Otherwise, even if you have the ability to kill it, it would probably be difficult to catch it in the sea of sand.
However, at this moment, just when the mutant giant scorpion thought it could escape danger and save its life.
Little Clementine immediately came back to her senses, hummed softly, and then used the communication device to start communicating with the giant Tom on the screen.
Perhaps because they had never seen such a strange-looking creature as the armed mechanical dog, when the pack horses and mechanical dogs entered the oasis, they were not immediately attacked by the mutated giant scorpions.
However, Clementine, who had grown up in the Lyon family, had no worries. She greeted Lyon casually, then walked to Caveira with a smile and chatted with her in a low voice about what had happened during this period.
"It has great power and is very fast. Without a vehicle, it would be impossible for ordinary people like us to keep up with its speed."
This made the mutant giant scorpion, which was hiding under the sand and wanted to wait and see, unable to bear it.
Three docile pack horses, led by three armed mechanical dogs, approached the oasis step by step.
There is not much content in the video. When Jesus and others encountered the mutant scorpion for the first time, they did not turn on the recording function. The video played this time was just some clips they captured later using a reconnaissance drone.
Clementine, who had been watching the battle, also noticed the changes in the sand dunes. Without hesitation, she immediately directed Giant Tom to respond.
After waiting for about ten minutes, perhaps realizing that these two creatures were not dangerous, the mutant giant crab that had been lurking in the sand slowly crawled out of the sand.
Soon, the other people who came with them also got off the plane. In addition to Professor Mallock, who wanted to observe the super mutant up close, even Professor Jacob, who rarely went out, came here.
The huge claws slammed hard on the square metal shield, and the collision between the hard shell and the special steel actually produced a dazzling spark of fire.
That is their ability to escape. When the mutant crab queen encounters danger, she will at most dive into the sea. However, judging from the performance in the video, with the speed at which this mutant scorpion dives into the sand, it is impossible to escape unless the mutant scorpion can be seriously injured before it escapes.
"Only when larger prey arrives at the oasis will it be attacked by it."
Then, the mutant giant scorpion moved up to the packhorse's body before it cooled down completely, and swallowed the warm flesh and blood and everything hidden on its body into its stomach, feasting on it.
In just a few seconds, both the flesh-and-blood packhorse and the metal mechanical dog were riddled with holes from the giant scorpion's claws and tail.
"Stop being in a daze, little girl. It's time to implement plan B."
On that screen, the giant Tom, wearing a heavy armor weighing more than ten tons, was sitting on a stone, staring at the ground in a daze, bored.
Then, while the mutant giant scorpion was confused, the special Gatling machine gun in his right hand began to roar mercilessly.
The reason why so many people came this time and so many resources were consumed was not because he was mobilizing a large number of troops and making a fuss out of nothing.
"This is the video we captured."
Leon nodded slightly. Although he had not tested the defense of this mutant crab, based on his experience, the black shell on this crab would definitely not be much weaker than a steel plate of the same thickness.
Ding ding ding! Ding ding ding!
The collision sounds between the tail stinger and the heavy metal armor continued, and countless fires splashed wildly. However, with the protection of the heavy metal armor, the mutant giant scorpion's tail stinger did not cause penetrating damage to Giant Tom.
"How's it going, Sherman? How many of those micro-bombs did he swallow?"
Without the President's permission, no one else spoke out of courtesy.
"Moreover, its claws and tail stinger are very strong, and its attack speed is also very amazing. Although I have not conducted actual attempts, I suspect that neither our bulletproof vests nor the alloy armor of the Death Corps will be able to withstand its piercing."
"What we can confirm now is that this mutant scorpion likes to stay under the sand most of the time, hiding its body."
However, the high-intensity defense and recoil damage of the metal armor made the mutant giant scorpion feel pain. It gradually slowed down its offensive and began to use its weight and size advantages to attack the armed giant.
When it comes to destruction, this powerful guy is really good at it.
Taking advantage of this opportunity, the mutant giant scorpion finally broke free from control and used all its strength to flee towards the location of the sand dunes.
However, after a few minutes, even though the mutant giant scorpion had exerted its full strength, its physical advantage was ultimately no match for the hard metal. No matter how it attacked, it could not break through the giant metal shield in Tom's hand and the heavy metal armor on his body.
However, this mutant scorpion, like the mutant crab queen, has a troublesome ability.
Soon, whether it was the lawn, green trees, dense bushes, or the stones, tree roots, and berries, this originally beautiful and vibrant oasis became ugly and gradually lost its vitality under the destruction of the giant Tom.
"The total weight is about ten kilograms, and it can be detonated at any time according to your command."
After being captured this time, no matter how the mutant giant scorpion struggled, the armed giant refused to compromise due to its extremely heavy body.
However, having finally seized the opportunity, how could the people of Lyon let this big-mouthed fat piece of meat fly away from the plate?
The combat engineer in charge was not in a hurry. He controlled the mechanical dog to bring the three pack horses to the small lake in the center of the oasis. He then let the horses drink the lake water and eat the wild grass comfortably in this place where the vegetation was still lush.
Boom boom boom!
At the moment Sherman pressed the detonation button, a sound like muffled thunder continuously came out from the body of the mutant crab, and the mutant crab, which was still struggling and trying to escape, also trembled all over and froze there.
Even among super mutants of the same level, apart from some advantages in speed, the attack and defense capabilities of this mutated scorpion are actually not as good as those of the mutant crab queen in Florida.
And in just a few seconds, the armed giant standing behind the mutant crab, under Clementine's command, pounced forward again and grabbed the giant scorpion's entire tail from the base of its tail.
At this point, Jesus nodded to Jill, and the girl immediately took out the video she had prepared in advance and used a projector to project the content onto a wall.
Although it is very ferocious in battle, it is also very decisive when facing danger.
Those who had never seen it were all very surprised. It was hard to imagine that a scorpion could have such speed and strength.
With such a powerful firing rate, more than a thousand bullets were fired in just a dozen seconds.
The hard metal made a creaking sound when it was bitten, but I don't know if the scorpion's mouthparts were damaged.
The laser that hit the giant scorpion's head was like a maggot attached to its bones, biting tightly on the shattered shell of the giant scorpion's head, constantly raising its temperature and burning its flesh.
No matter what kind of body it is, it cannot withstand such high temperatures.
Soon, accompanied by waves of sweet barbecue aroma, the mutant giant scorpion that had roamed the sand sea for a long time lost its life under the attack of this dazzling laser.
