Caesar hurried in and immediately spotted Jane Foster.
The already tall woman looked even leggier and slimmer around the waist in her uniform.
Unfortunately, Caesar had no mood to admire her. The moment he entered, he demanded, "What's the situation with the beasts?"
Jane saluted, then said, "It's bad, Colonel. It's a beast swarm."
"The Spectrum Signals of more than twenty giant beasts have been detected so far. Among them is even the Spectrum Signal of a Nightmare Giant Beast."
Caesar's expression changed. "A Nightmare Giant Beast?"
If it were merely a swarm of low- to mid-tier beasts, the combined firepower of the fleet might still be enough to drive them away.
At worst, they could recall the two Mecha Squads stationed on Dongfeng Island. They would still have a way to deal with it.
