Thump!

The crimson mechs collided with the monsters.

It was clearly steel clashing with flesh and blood, but the sound of their collision was like two meteorites hitting each other.

Inside the mech's cockpit Wei Brothers listened to the incessant beeping alarm and braved the sparks emanating from the cockpit, barely managing to fend off the monster's attack.

But before they could catch their breath, the monster crashed into them again.

The three people connected to the mecha were almost powerless to resist and were knocked straight back, nearly losing control of the mecha.

The most impulsive of the three Wei Hu, couldn't control himself and started swearing. "What the hell is this thing! Every bone in its body is harder than alloy!"

The eldest brother Wei Chang, had a somber face and didn't speak, but his eyes revealed his seriousness.

Wei Jin, the second brother, hurriedly checked the mecha's current condition, trying his best to ensure that the mecha's equipment was functioning normally.

Just now, after the Flying Squirrel accelerated and attacked them in mid-air, they immediately detached and landed to avoid it, choosing to wait until the monster also landed before engaging it in combat.

But once they got involved, they realized something was wrong.

This monster's bones are incredibly hard!

Even after they activated all three alloy flywheels, they still couldn't saw through the monster's bones. As for their specialty—paralyzing the monster by destroying its skeletal nerves—that was out of the question.

It's completely unusable.

Moreover, this monster's close-range attack ability is ridiculously strong. Its sharp beak on its head is like a woodpecker's; it only needs to step back slightly to create a large hole in the mech.

Especially when the monster is standing upright, using this move to peck at the mech is like a chick eating a grain of rice.

Moreover, once it shakes its head, the monster's beak transforms into a hard iron rod, capable of smashing through the mech's armor with a couple of thuds.

If the Wei Brothers hadn't used the relative agility of their mechs to keep the monster at bay, their heads would probably have been snatched away long ago.

Moreover, even if they continue to employ maneuvering tactics, they are now showing signs of reaching their breaking point.

Each time the mech successfully withstood a monster's attack, it would generate two or three malfunction warnings after the battle, indicating that something was cracked or broken...

Seeing this, the television helicopters circling around wished they weren't armed helicopters, otherwise they would have launched several missiles to help the mechs.

The cameras on the helicopter broadcast the battle to almost every television station around the world.

The reporter, feigning composure, stood off-camera, holding a microphone and explaining.

" Crimson Typhoon in a bad state right now; it's constantly at a disadvantage. We can see that the size difference between it and the monster is too obvious."

"However, it did a good job of confining the monster to the nearshore area, preventing it from entering the city, but its chances are running out. The three pilots must remain vigilant..."

Countless viewers watching the live broadcast on television clenched their fists, silently cheering for the mecha.

This monster attack has already attracted global attention.

Especially after hearing that a flying monster had appeared there, possibly breaking away from the Pacific Ocean Rim and entering other continents of the Earth for the first time, the whole world suddenly became tense.

Officials from various countries have been calling the PPDC, hoping they can request the Mutual Aid Society's help to stop this monster invasion crisis once again.

People around the world are also praying for the Crimson Typhoon.

However, the Wei Brothers were completely unaware of all this.

he

They are now completely focused on the battle, with nothing on their minds except the monsters. That is why no matter how strong the monsters' attacks are, they cannot break the connection between them and their mechs.

"Maintain our position, protect the plasma cannon, and look for an opportunity to fire. We need to at least destroy the Flying Squirrel's wings!"

After defeating the monster once again, Wei Chang remembered Tendo Choi's instructions.

Defeating the monster is already difficult enough, but as long as they destroy its wings, they'll consider their mission complete.

When the time comes, President Zhang can simply banish the wingless monsters to space...

As Wei Chang thought this, an ominous premonition instinctively rose in his heart.

He turned his head and saw that the monster, which had just been knocked back dozens of meters, suddenly leaped up, spread its huge wings in the air, and pounced towards them!

As the monster spread its enormous wings, the surrounding light dimmed instantly.

More importantly, these enormous wings completely covered all of the mech's escape routes.

They had nowhere to retreat, nowhere to escape.

Seeing that he had reached a dead end, Wei Chang simply decided to give up entirely.

And this is a great opportunity!

"Plasma cannon!"

The plasma cannon on the mech's left hand began to activate. One mechanical component after another flowed smoothly and quickly, like musical notes in a conductor's hand, coordinating with each other to contract and deform. Then the flange rotated, the muzzle extended, and it entered the ammunition-ready state.

The I-22 Plasma Cannon equipped by Crimson Typhoon has less than two seconds to prepare ammunition...

However.

While still in the air, the Flying Squirrel suddenly opened its mouth wide, and an extremely long tongue shot out from it at lightning speed. Before anyone could react, the tongue had already struck the plasma cannon, which was still preparing its ammunition!

Pfft--

First, a flash of lightning appeared, then with a whoosh, the plasma, which had not yet been fully pressurized, overflowed from the rupture and spilled all over the ground.

Wei Chang stared blankly at his left hand, a piercing pain emanating from it, unable to believe that the monster had hidden a secret weapon Barry.

Only the control suit reminded him through excruciating pain that the mech's left hand was completely destroyed.

The next second.

A shadow descends!

The Flying Squirrel's enormous body completely rode on top of the mecha, and the monster's wings covered the entire mecha, making it impossible to see anything from the outside.

The reporters in the surrounding helicopters gasped in disbelief, unable to believe what they were seeing. For a moment, they even forgot to give their commentary.

But without the reporter saying much, viewers watching the live stream could easily see what was going on.

"My God!"

"We can't stay in San Francisco any longer. The mechs are destroyed. We need to leave immediately!"

"Monsters and nuclear bombs will kill us all!"

"The tragedy of 2013 is about to repeat itself!"

Panic has spread through the hospital's underground shelters, with many hoping to take advantage of this last chance to leave San Francisco.

Finch was all too familiar with this atmosphere of panic; it was just like this when a solar storm first occurred in his timeline.

Everyone wanted to leave; everyone was in a state of panic.

He hugged his dog tightly, and Jeff stood in the restless crowd with his arms outstretched to protect Finch from being knocked over by others.

"Don't go outside. The underground shelter is safe. Even if a monster passes right above us, we won't be in any danger. Now..."

"Able to leave..."

The managers were shouting themselves hoarse at the scene.

However, no one would listen; almost everyone was demanding that the shelter doors be opened.

Finch looked around blankly.

To be honest, he didn't know what to do.

He wasn't from this time and space; even if he ran away with these people, he wouldn't know where to go.

And is it always safe to go out?

Based on Finch's experience, going out might be more dangerous than staying here...

His mind raced, and suddenly his gaze fell upon the television camera, which had abruptly changed direction.

At the same time, exclamations of surprise rang out from the reporters.

"A new mech!"

"A mysterious giant mech appeared at the scene. This must be the Mutual Aid Society's Spacetime Tunnel, and what's even more surprising is that this mech is carrying a monster under its arm..."

" San Francisco hasn't lost hope yet; new mechs have appeared on the scene!"

Finch paused for a moment, then pointed at the television and roared in a booming voice, "Hey!"

Look here!

The commotion around them suddenly stopped, and everyone looked up at the television in surprise.

Because a new mecha appeared on TV!

A massive mech, painted entirely in gold and red, dripping with water, and covered in seabed silt!

"What's going on?" Zhang Tianyuan looked around after arriving, but couldn't find Crimson Typhoon anywhere.

All I saw was a monster...

Mako Mori was the first to react. Looking at the information on the screen, she analyzed the situation with her experience. "President, the Typhoon is with the monster; it might be trapped by the monster's wings!"

Lacking knowledge of monsters, Zhang Tianyuan finally realized what was happening and hurriedly asked the Shatterdome, " Tendo, how are they?"

On the other end, Tendo Choi was also closely monitoring the situation in San Francisco. He was overjoyed when he saw the Pangu appear next to Crimson Typhoon and immediately grabbed the microphone to report the situation:

" The Typhoon caused severe damage. Although the Wei Brothers ' vital signs are normal, they won't last much longer..."

Upon hearing this, Zhang Tianyuan understood.

He released his grip, and the Horn, which had fallen into a semi-conscious state and had completely lost its sonic attack capability, crashed to the ground.

Then, he controlled the Pangu and drove it straight toward the Flying Squirrel.

The rumbling footsteps made the Flying Squirrel turn around warily.

Then it saw a mech taller than itself approaching...

???

Where did this thing come from?

Before the Flying Squirrel could react, the Pangu had already closed in quickly, extending its massive right hand to grab its throat.

"Get out of here!" Zhang Tianyuan, in the driver's seat, pulled back forcefully with his right hand. After a brief delay, the Pangu outside made the same move.

The Flying Squirrel felt an irresistible force gripping its throat, and before it could react, it was violently ripped apart like a chick and thrown uncontrollably to the ground...

The monster crashed to the ground with a loud thud.

Zhang Tianyuan deliberately controlled the landing point; the Flying Squirrel landed right next to the Horn, and the two monsters now lay neatly on the beach.

Seeing this, the reporters on the surrounding helicopters were greatly encouraged and announced to their viewers that a turning point had occurred and the flame of hope had not been extinguished.

Crimson Typhoon, who had just been enveloped by the monster, was only now beginning to regain consciousness.

Seeing the light coming in from outside the mecha, the Wei Brothers realized that they seemed to have been rescued.
