Location: Original Kennedy Airport.
It has been completely requisitioned by Umbrella and Marine Corps, and is temporarily used as a military base for both parties, code-named Long Island Fortress.
Except for the A380 dedicated to William, all remaining civilian airframes were transferred to Newark Liberty International Airport.
Nearly two and a half hours have passed since 2 local time when Manhattan was completely locked down.
The slightly pale William, accompanied by Hunk and a group of alphas, were gathering beside the runway outside Terminal 6.
"Ha~"
Due to the cold, the carbon dioxide and water vapor exhaled by everyone turned into white mist and floated upward.
When William learned that the large army led by Andre was about to arrive, he walked out of Command Center in advance, waiting for his Warrior Nation's 'biological father'.
As for the reason for his pale complexion, Halsey extracted nearly 1,200 ml of blood through his body.
1200ml...
Really almost squeezed it dry.
Halsey is still analyzing his blood in the laboratory building. When Cortana arrives, vaccine development and mass production will be inevitable.
At this time, William discovered that two small red and green light spots were flashing in the night sky far away from his sight, and the light spots were getting closer and closer.
"Boom-buzz-!"
There was also the roar of the engines of large transport planes.
Soon, a black-painted, super-large transport aircraft with a Red and White Umbrella mark and a shape similar to the An-255 landed on the airport runway.
This is the Um-255 transport aircraft.
It is a super-large transport aircraft developed by Umbrella Arsenal in March this year based on the An-255 blueprint obtained from William from Ukraine and Hydrogen Engine from Halsey.
The number is Um-255.
It can accommodate 600 fully armed UBCS, or a maximum load of 700 tons, but due to its airtightness, it cannot directly enter space.
The annual output is twenty aircraft, and there are currently fifteen Umbrella aircraft.
The first ten delivered in October were sent to Troy, and the remaining five were located at military bases around the world to implement Umbrella's global rapid troop transport plan.
.
"Boss."
Hunk approached William and whispered, "Lieutenant General O'Donohue is also here and wants to meet our arriving support together."
William looked in the direction pointed by Hunk and saw Mike walking towards them alone with a cigar in his mouth.
Through the system's loyalty test and the memory of the previous owner, William had already regarded the old lieutenant general as one of his own, and then waved his hand and said:
"It doesn't matter, let the lieutenant general go with us to see the colonel."
"Yes."
Following the order, the Alphas made way for Mike to approach the defense circle, and then everyone headed to the vicinity of the first Um-255 that had landed and taxied to park.
Coming to the side of the huge transport fuselage, I looked at the door that gradually opened and lowered the folding ladder.
"Huh~"
Mike spit out cigar smoke and sighed to William beside him, "William, I didn't expect that your Umbrella Corporation actually mass-produced a transport aircraft that exceeded the world record.
Tsk tsk, Lord Russell's prediction is right, you can indeed carry forward the family."
"It's okay..." William laughed sarcastically.
"Boss!"
After the side hatch of the Um-255 transport aircraft was completely opened, a loud voice of Andre could be heard:
"I brought twenty-two UBCS companies and four hundred USS, a large number of Tyrants, and... (focus on Mike)"
Andre's face changed suddenly.
From his original friendly laughter, he turned into a serious frown. He quickly walked down the folding ladder and went straight to Mike and said in a deep voice:
"Mike."
"Andre."
Mike responded in the same deep voice, flicked the cigar in his left hand to the ground, and stepped hard with his heel.
?
William, who was nearby, noticed something was wrong in the atmosphere. The air around him was filled with the smell of Gunpowder, like... the feeling of old enemies meeting each other.
"Wahahahaha!"
Suddenly, the two 'old men' laughed loudly, hugged each other and sighed.
"Dulat (bastard thing)! You're doing well, you're all Three-star Lieutenant General! Bulett!"
"What you said to Mazefak is that I can't understand, Bichi is so tall!"
Seeing two people who together reached 100 years old swearing at each other, not only William was dumbfounded, but also Hunk and Alpha standing by.
What makes William feel even more stomachache is...
Andre indeed knows the hidden stake left by grandpa!
.
Soon after, the remaining nine Um-255 transport aircraft landed at the airport one after another.
By then.
UBCS wearing AAES were neatly arranged in the airport, and under the envious eyes of Marine Corps, they were transferred to the long-awaited transport convoy.
Behind them were a thousand three-meter tyrants wearing green trench coats whose movements were synchronized. They also boarded the waiting truck like UBCS.
The subsequent transport convoy was like a long queue, continuously heading towards Manhattan.
Immediately afterwards, there were technicians wearing white work clothes, rolling out a large number of large equipment boxes from Um-255, and sending them to the hangar commandeered by Umbrella Agent.
The security guards in dark blue clothing also began to assist the stunned Marine Corps in defending Long Island Fortress.
Horizontally runs through the entire Manhattan on West 42nd Street;
To the north, west, and east of each intersection, Marine Corps members used sandbags and abandoned vehicles to build fortifications to block the infected Zombie Horde.
West 42nd Street is marked in light red to the north and dark yellow to the south.
This means that there are only a handful of survivors nearby and an army of more than tens of thousands of infected people.
Each intersection is defended by more than sixty Marine Corps members.
They were assigned by the top management to go deep here and try to prevent the expansion of the infection area in order to buy time and hold on until Umbrella's support troops arrived.
For the first hour and a half, the Marine Corps members were able to deal with it with ease.
However, with the emergence of infected people who were fast and powerful, some defensive strongholds collapsed and fell, and Marine Corps stationed at West 42nd Street suffered heavy losses.
At the intersection with Sixth Avenue.
There are a number of Humvee and one M2 Bradley left here to enhance the firepower output of the main road.
But even so, the defenses in the north were still scattered by Zombie Horde, leaving less and less space for Marine Corps members to move.
Marine Corps, the one at the front of the line, fired at Zombie Horde while turning his head and yelling heartbreakingly:
"Lieutenant!! We need to retreat! The top is here!!"
"Marine Corps! Hold on!"
The second lieutenant, who was standing a few meters behind, first yelled back, then trotted to a Humvee, pulled open the door, reached for the communication microphone and cursed:
"Call Long Island Fortress! Support! Where is the fucking support?!"
"Support will arrive in two minutes."
"You said that two minutes ago and you have two more minutes to draw up! We need to retreat!"
"Boom! Boom!"
However, before the second lieutenant could wait for the reply from the communication, the sound of heavy running could be heard from behind the line.
Nearly forty three-meter-tall giants were seen rushing into the position and swimming upstream, directly blocking the gap in the line.
Seeing the giants killing each other among the corpses, the Marine Corps members swallowed their saliva one after another.
Subsequently, a group of soldiers wearing high-tech equipment and exposing their Mechanical Skeleton also poured into the position to assist the Marine Corps members in consolidating the fortifications and defending Zombie Horde.
"Hey, Lieutenant, I heard you need support?"
