"President, are you planning to pilot the Pangu to fight the monsters?" Old Pan asked, unsure whether to support or oppose the decision.
Ning Jihua frowned. "Isn't this too dangerous? A level 5 monster is already about the size of the Pangu. Let's abandon the plan to Nuke the Wormhole."
Even Taylor nodded in agreement, "Our timeline still needs the guidance and assistance of the Mutual Aid Society. Chairman, please don't act impulsively..."
Taylor's lips moved as if he was about to suggest abandoning San Francisco. Compared to losing the Mutual Aid Society, what was San Francisco?
But at that moment, Zhang Tianyuan waved his hand:
"I'm just using the mecha to get close to the monster; I won't use the mecha to fight it."
He must be crazy to pilot a mech and fight monsters.
Although he can pilot the Pangu alone, he hasn't received much mecha training. If he were to actually fight monsters in a mecha, his results would probably be no better than those kids in Pacific Rim 2.
So he just planned to put a turtle shell over his mecha to gain the opportunity to accept monsters.
Once he gets close to the monster, he can send it on a journey.
Even after hearing Zhang Tianyuan's explanation, Ning Jihua and Taylor still felt the risk was too great.
Only Old Pan hesitated for a moment.
As someone working on the front lines, he has witnessed countless tragedies caused by monsters and hopes that the disasters brought by monsters will come to an end.
This is arguably the closest they've ever come to ending the monster crisis.
He didn't want to give up halfway.
However, his idea clearly wouldn't be supported...
While he was still in a daze, Zhang Tianyuan suddenly patted him on the shoulder. " Old Pan and Mako Mori, get ready. When we get back to the Moyulan Base, I'll be launching the Pangu. You guys provide me with the monsters' paths."
"We won't wait for the monster to reach the coast; we'll strike as soon as we're ready."
The slap felt like an electric current running through Old Pan's body, making him shudder. He quickly regained his senses and gave Zhang Tianyuan a crisp military salute. "As you command!"
Mako Mori also straightened her back and gave a salute.
After saying that, the father and daughter immediately left to inform Moyulan Base to check the mechs and prepare for deployment.
Seeing that Zhang Tianyuan had made up his mind, Ning Jihua sighed and did not try to persuade him further.
Taylor, on the contrary, refused to give up.
He is
They would rather give up San Francisco than let Zhang Tianyuan take this risk.
After all, rounding up, Zhang Tianyuan is now practically his backer. Who would want their backer to take risks?
Beyond the Shatterdome.
The warning message from the Hong Kong government, indicating that the monster was targeting the Hong Kong again, was quickly disseminated to every corner of the city.
The Hong Kong has once again declared a state of emergency, with large numbers of citizens flocking to underground shelters.
However, this is different from the panic and anxiety of the past.
Although everyone still frowned this time, the anxiety and unease they felt when facing life and death were gone.
Most people appeared quite calm.
In the crowded underground shelter, many people even had the leisure to chat and eat sunflower seeds at the same time.
"Now that we have the Mutual Aid Society and the mechs, the monsters shouldn't be able to log in anymore, right?"
An old man, dressed only in a white vest and shorts, with flip-flops on his feet, held a tattered palm-leaf fan in his hand and patted his thigh: w.
"Of course! Didn't you see the news? The Mutual Aid Society a special move called 'Great Shift of Heaven and Earth.' Even if monsters land, they can use this move to send them away. Things are different now, so don't worry!"
"What kind of Qiankun Great Shift?"
Gu Zhi: "That's called Spacetime Tunnel, Uncle. Don't talk nonsense if you don't know what it is, it's embarrassing..."
"What's shameful about it? Throwing something around in mid-air, isn't that just like the Great Shift of Heaven and Earth?"
"..."
The people around watched this scene and silently moved away.
"Fellow citizens, fellow citizens..." Suddenly, the Horn in the shelter blared out an announcement:
"Due to the approach of the monster codenamed 'Horn,' all citizens are urged to immediately seek refuge in the nearest underground shelter, and to cover their ears and open their mouths... The monster possesses sonic attack capabilities; if the monster lands, please do not approach..."
The lengthy broadcast explained the details very clearly, and even taught the citizens how to fight against the monster's sonic weapons.
The Lord said it was just in case.
Only then did the citizens, who had just been completely relaxed about the monster's attack, realize that something was amiss.
Is it possible to injure someone from several kilometers away?
The old man couldn't help but exclaim in surprise, "What kind of martial arts does this monster practice?!"
Nobody's in the mood to argue with him anymore.
Everyone keenly noticed that an attack was now underway.
This monster seems far more powerful than the ones before.
"Won't something bad happen again this time?" someone asked, their anxiety returning.
"It's alright, it's alright, things are different now."
"The Great Shift of Heaven and Earth will bounce that monster away..."
At the same time.
San Francisco.
Crimson Typhoon had already been deployed to the skies above San Francisco via Spacetime Tunnel, quietly awaiting the arrival of the Flying Squirrel.
This exciting news quickly spread throughout the city via signal.
"Please do not panic, everyone. PPDC's Crimson Typhoon mech has already arrived at the monster's predicted landing point via the Spacetime Tunnel. Its fierce blades will surely unleash a blood-red storm upon the monster!"
In the hospital's underground area, Finch and Jeff squatted in the same spot, both looking up and listening to the announcement over the Horn.
Finch noticed that everyone around him seemed to feel at ease after hearing these words. Some even began to pray, murmuring praises for the mechs and the Mutual Aid Society.
He couldn't help but ask a middle-aged man praying nearby, "Have you always believed so much in mechs?"
The middle-aged man glanced at him and said, "Without mechs, our world might have been destroyed by monsters long ago."
"But I trust the Mutual Aid Society more than the mechs now."
" The Mutual Aid Society?" Finch shifted into a more comfortable position and continued listening, deeply curious about the organization that had saved him.
After all, he still doesn't have a detailed understanding of the Mutual Aid Society.
The middle-aged man's face was filled with fanaticism. " Finch, you're not from our time, so you don't know. In my opinion, Mutual Aid Society our only hope to get rid of the monsters in the future!"
Finch shrugged, feeling rather helpless about the fact that everyone knew him. (Xxs-2)
The middle-aged man continued, "Before the Mutual Aid Society arrived, even though we had mechs and Anti-Kaiju Wall, it was still common for monsters to invade the city."
The mechs couldn't always successfully intercept the monsters near the coast, and every time the monsters entered the city, it meant huge casualties.
The middle-aged man became increasingly excited as he spoke, and he tried to gesture in the confined space:
"But since the Mutual Aid Society came along, with their help, there hasn't been a single instance of monsters attacking the city!"
"PPDC's mechs were able to successfully protect Los Angeles and the Hong Kong last time thanks to the Mutual Aid Society's Spacetime Tunnel!"
