<Containment Control Begins with Umbrella>

The edge of the city occupied by sarcoids, above the sandy sea.

The four Pelicans descended rapidly, opened the hatch at the rear of the cabin, and then a group of Heavy Soldiers jumped out of the cabin one after another.

Heavy Soldier took advantage of the high performance of CMC Power Armor and used a 'two-foot landing' similar to that of paratroopers, and landed on the sand.

Also jumping with Heavy Soldiers is Athena.

I saw her wearing Golden Battle Armor, holding a silver spear in her right hand and a shield in her left hand. She truly landed on her feet.

The Pelican did not return after completing its airdrop mission. The formation of four aircraft continued to fly into the city and fired a wave of submunitions at the sarcoma.

The missiles drew white tracks in the air and rushed towards the tumor.

"Click-! Click-!"

Immediately afterwards, the cluster bomb 'exploded' instantly and dispersed into countless small missiles covering the mass of sarcoma.

Then...

"Boom-! Boom-!" Continuous explosion noises echoed throughout the city.

"Uh--!"

The sudden attack caused the tumor to shrink violently, and even made a groan of pain like some kind of creature.

The "Fifty Dollar" brothers on the edge of the city had already entered the ruined streets of the city during the bombing.

Those Shadow Monster who were wandering aimlessly saw this group of steel soldiers pouring into the city and launched a counterattack.

However, before the soldiers could pull the trigger.

"Ha!"

Accompanied by a woman's loud shout, a 'silver light' flashed across the center of the almost endless group of Shadow Monster.

"Bah~! Bah~!"

Suddenly, a large number of Shadow Monster evaporated due to this silver light, turned into a layer of sulfur and could no longer move.

And that 'silver light', or rather the silver war spear, returned the way it came.

I saw Athena holding the war spear specially made for her by the company in her right hand, with the tip of the spear reaching the mass of crawling sarcoma in the center of the city, and raised her voice and said:

"Soldiers, I, Athena, and Goddess of War and Wisdom will fight side by side with you to eliminate these pretenders!"

"Huha!"

Heavy Soldier's morale was immediately boosted by her.

After all, Athena has been training Sparta on Minos Island for a long time, and was later transferred to Containment Fleet to be responsible for containing abnormal phenomena.

Among regular troops, especially those who joined the company after Antarctic Campaign, few have seen the true face of Athena, let alone fought alongside her.

So...

This group of big brothers shot their silver Spike Rounds at the group of Shadow Monster with firm belief as if they had been injected with blood.

Although he is wearing the CMC Power Armor Marine Corps member, he looks very crispy in the game, and many memes were born because of this.

But in the real world, this group of Heavy Marines is equivalent to a walking 'tank'.

A mere hundred people are enough to deal with the Shadow Monster in the city. Moreover, the main goal of their mission is to find the surviving natives, not to fight against the Shadow Monster.

In terms of combat, the MS teams led by Athena and William are in charge.

After Athena boosted morale with a human gesture, it continued deeper into the city and Colossal Transformation reached a height of one hundred and fifty meters.

The equipment on her body also increased, including the special Silver Spear.

At the same time that Heavy Soldier and Athena launched the attack, the Pelican, which fired anti-aircraft missiles, used Gauss Machine Cannon to hover over the city and act as a support gunboat.

And four mobile suits also arrived in the sky above the sarcoma.

Inside the cockpit of Specialized Unit.

William looked at the mass of sarcoma through Panoramic screen, and ordered in a low voice, "Serena, inform Athena to throw the war spear at the target.

Then notify the blue team that when Athena launches an attack, our MS units will also pour ammunition towards the target."

"Yes."

Serena nodded slightly and conveyed William's command.

"Whoops!"

The nearly two hundred meter long Silver Spear was thrown hard by Athena, and once again turned into a silver light and rushed towards the source of the sarcoma that produced Shadow Monster with endless energy.

"Pfft-!"

The spear stabbed straight into the sarcoma, or even penetrated the sarcoma directly, and continued to rush towards the distance without losing strength.

The moment Athena launched the attack, Karl of Artillery Strike also controlled Gauss Cannon, not caring about the overheating problem at all, and fired continuously at the target.

The John used in the air attack also fired the small-caliber Gauss Autocannon.

As for Sword Strike's Mylon, this time it is powerful but useless. It can only hold a Big Silver Sword and float in the air as a support aircraft.

On the other hand, the Specialized Unit equipped with six Floating Sword can continuously output under the control of William, and it also shines with silver light under the illumination of stars.

Of course, it was Athena's silver spear that dealt the fatal blow to the sarcoma.

At this time, Athena used her divinity to hold the missing silver gun in her hand again, and continued to repeat the throwing action.

Within tens of seconds, this disgusting sarcoma composed of countless billions of hearts could no longer maintain its shape and collapsed.

A large amount of red flowing liquid rushed out from the cracked sarcoma and poured around the city.

Shadow Monster intertwined with Heavy Soldier at the edge of the city. With the destruction of their source, they also evaporated and turned into sulfur.

Before Heavy Soldier could recover, he was 'swallowed' by the liquid like a small tsunami.

Fortunately, CMC Power Armor has strong protection, and Heavy Soldier are on the edge of the city, and they just passively left the city and came to the desert.

But the mission of this group of Heavy Soldier is designated to be impossible to complete, because even if there are still natives surviving in this city, they will all have to 'ascend to heaven' after what happened just now.

But Athena had no impact at all, and she easily withstood the impact.

In the cockpit.

"After testing, the target has completely lost its activity, and Lieutenant Colonel Madodon also reported that Shadow Monster, who fought with them, also died suddenly.

Boss, we can confirm that this abnormal phenomenon has been resolved." Serena, who was sitting at the front of William, reported.

"Okay." William nodded lightly.

He controlled the machine body to descend, retrieved Floating Sword and continued to order:

"Ask Athena and the ground troops to withdraw from the city, the Pelican formation returns to the operational base station, and technicians arrive to disinfect them.

The blue team will continue to be vigilant with me to make sure those things are really destroyed."

"Yes, old... boss!" Serena seemed to have suddenly discovered something, and immediately said loudly:

"A gravity anomaly has been detected below our body!"

But in the blink of an eye, the picture displayed on Panoramic screen is no longer the clear sky of Blue Sky, or the ruins of a city flowing with liquid.

Instead, there was a scarlet sky, and there were rocky cliffs everywhere that looked like they were being burned.

There are a large number of unknown 'creatures' flying in the sky. The screen focuses on observation and finds that the head of the 'creature' is similar to a human being...

In other words, human skulls are similar.

There are two flames burning in the empty eyes. It seems that the flames are their pupils and eyes.

The environment and creatures here seem to be telling William and Serena: "Welcome to hell."
