Wanderer Deploys

As expected, emergency communications never bring good news.

From the hurried and slightly panicked voice of Wright, General Jonathan's adjutant, on the other end of the phone, they learned that another Kaiju was about to attack.

"Wright, has sonar picked up its form? What type is it?"

(The PPDC categorizes Kaiju into three types based on their abilities and characteristics: balanced, agile, and defensive.)

(The "Shanlan" that attacked Dalian was a defensive Kaiju, while "Bladehead" was a balanced type.)

"Doctor, its specific features haven't been fully transmitted yet, but its size is no less than that of "Bladehead"! I'm afraid it's also a Category 3 Kaiju!"

Dr. Herman's heart sank. Although he had mentally prepared himself, he couldn't help but hold onto a sliver of hope.

" Commander Mao, I'd like to use your command center."

"Of course, no problem."

Mao Shucheng agreed readily. Who wouldn't worry about their hometown?

It was only natural.

Even with two Jaegers at PPDC headquarters, they couldn't guarantee absolute safety.

"Wright, request a screen share with General Jonathan!"

Dr. Herman and Mao Shucheng turned and headed for the command center.

Xiao Shou and Xie Yushan followed closely behind.

Jin Rong was instructed to turn on the command center's large screen.

Soon, the shared live feed came through.

General Jonathan agreed readily.

Even if his own country would shy away and abandon everything.

China would never give up.

Even with only a one-in-a-billion chance of survival.

They would choose to gamble.

If you ask why, it's the belief of unity and shared purpose when facing a powerful enemy.

General Jonathan's holographic projection also appeared before everyone.

Seeing this, they all saluted.

Mao Shucheng also nodded at General Jonathan.

"Sonar has preliminarily detected its size."

The screen image shifted, and a Kaiju resembling a snail was projected.

However, because it was only sonar waves, the shape appeared indistinct and abstract.

"The expert team is analyzing the intelligence. Its height is approximately 110 meters, and its estimated weight is nearly 4,000 tons."

"Its category data is similar to "Bladehead" from before, and it's also classified as a Category 3 Kaiju."

"Our air force has dispatched two fighter squadrons, a total of 21 aircraft, expected to arrive at the target battlefield within five minutes."

"Once we lure it out, it will be easier to determine its ability type, and we can see its appearance directly."

""Wanderer" is ready and will be towed and deployed to the target battlefield."

"General, is only "Wanderer" being deployed? Our opponent this time is a Category 3 Kaiju, no less than "Bladehead." We don't yet know its strength data or weaknesses, so we should proceed with caution!" Dr. Herman couldn't help but ask.

General Jonathan stood with his hands behind his back, his expression unchanged, only sighing softly.

""Explorer" was too severely damaged in the Sydney battle. Its power system has not yet fully recovered and cannot be used in combat."

"But there's no need to worry too much. After all, "Wanderer" is equipped with our latest laser weapon. Have confidence in it!"

"Moreover, "Wanderer" has never failed before, never lost!"

Dr. Herman also sighed slightly, having no choice but to place his hope in "Wanderer."

After all, the location where the Kaiju appeared was very close to land and very sensitive.

It was near California.

San Francisco, a port city in California.

If the Kaiju landed here, San Francisco would bear the brunt of the attack.

The tragedy of two years ago would repeat itself.

Although General Jonathan remained calm, he was also uneasy.

The strange thing about Kaiju is that they are creatures that cannot be defined by common sense.

Whether the laser weapon could suppress it was also uncertain.

It was just that as a general, as the commander of PPDC headquarters, he could not easily show his emotions.

If even he was in a panic, how could this war continue?

"General Jonathan, please speak freely if you need anything. China will not stand idly by, nor will we be perfunctory."

Mao Shucheng said to Jonathan with a solemn expression.

This was not just empty talk; China's responsibility as a major power was free of any self-interest.

It was fueled solely by passion, a desire to maintain and long for peace.

"Of course, my friend, my closest comrade-in-arms,"

"You,"

"Are my most solid support!"
