The Plane War Begins from Wandering Earth

Chapter 183 182. Warships Dispatched
Dr Ashford's request was taken seriously by the coalition government.

However, before the giant mechas belonging to the United Government can truly form combat effectiveness, capturing a living Kaiju is still just a luxury.

The repair and renovation of the "Danger Wanderer" mecha is still ongoing.

The United Government is also carrying out research, development and testing of mechas to target the infiltration of indigenous forces.

On June 6, just one month had passed since the attack by the Kaiju codenamed "Electric Blade".

A kaiju code-named "Mammoth" landed on a beach near Ecuador.

The Shattered Dome Base in Peru urgently dispatched two giant mechas, the "Dark Interceptor" and the "Puma", to intercept.

"Blue Romeo" located at the Broken Dome Base in Los Angeles also went to help.

After the "Wall of Life" replaced the "Hunter Project", it was designed to maximize the combat efficiency of giant mechas and reduce the injuries of mechas in battle.

Plus the experience gained from the "Electric Blade" Kaiju attack.

Shattered Dome Bases across the country began to implement the "wolf pack tactics" of using more people to defeat fewer.

Among the three mechas that participated in the encirclement and suppression of the "Mammoth", the "Dark Interceptor" and the "Puma" are both second-generation mechas, and the "Blue Romeo" is a first-generation mecha.

Although the actual combat effectiveness of mechas is not completely equal to their level.

But the "Mammoth" they faced was a powerful third-level monster.

This encirclement and suppression battle ended with the "Dark Interceptor" and the "Mammoth" being destroyed together.

At the end of its life, "Mammoth" chose to self-destruct with the "Dark Interceptor" who was closest to it.

The "Mammoth" weighing more than 2,000 tons is like a large "biological bomb".

After the self-explosion, the blood, flesh and juice in the body containing deadly toxins exploded everywhere.

Ultimately, the Dark Interceptor was irreparably damaged and its two pilots were killed on the spot.

Another South American coastal city with a population of 8 also suffered. More than people were directly affected by the monster's deadly toxins, and the area was listed as a no-go zone by PPDC environmental experts.

The other two giant mechas were also injured and needed repair and maintenance after returning to the base.

After this began a brief period of stability.

It wasn't until October 10 that another sea monster appeared in the Panama Canal.

The "Blue Romeo", which had not yet been fully repaired, joined the battle. The nearest "Puma" was still repairing damage to its electronic system and was unable to provide timely support.

The two sides fought on the Panama Canal for more than forty minutes.

Two transiting cargo ships were caught in the action and sank in the canal.

In the end, the "Blue Romeo" was severely damaged and disintegrated in the battle, and its two pilots were killed.

The seriously injured Kaiju was slow in movement and was bombarded repeatedly by the North American military's targeted bunker-buster bombs, eventually killing it on the spot.

Subsequently, the Panama Canal had to announce the suspension of operations due to the impact of this battle.

The monster toxin pollution is a minor matter; the trouble is the two large cargo ships sunk to the bottom of the river.

Until the two large cargo ships are cleared out of the canal, this closest channel between the Pacific and Atlantic Oceans will have to be temporarily closed.

These two giant mecha operations were extremely unsuccessful in every way.

The former fought three against one, but was killed by Kaiju.

Not only was an expensive giant mecha lost, but the self-destruction of the Kaiju caused pollution to spread in the local area.

The latter also lost a mecha and caused the indefinite suspension of the Panama Canal, the lifeline of transportation.

Ultimately, the monster was dealt with by military weapons, but the pollution it caused was naturally unavoidable.

The two failed operations of the giant mecha further strengthened PPDC's determination to carry out the "Wall of Life" plan.

Countless people in the Pacific Rim who saw the battle scenes through news reports began to question the combat effectiveness of the giant mecha.

There are even people with extreme ideas who are clamoring that humans should abandon the ocean.

Use the "Wall of Life" to surround all the land, and use nuclear bombs to destroy the Kaiju as soon as they appear.

Nuclear pollution, monster toxins.

Use the "Wall of Life" to block all these things in the ocean area.

All humans need is land.

Unexpectedly, this outrageous statement was recognized by quite a number of people who had suffered from the attacks of Kaiju.

The time comes on June 11th.

The Kaiju, codenamed "Flame God", landed in the Seoul area of ​​the peninsula at a gap that had not yet been completely covered by the "Wall of Life".

PPDC received the official request for help from the peninsula immediately.

The economic influence of the Seoul metropolitan area accounts for nearly half of the entire peninsula.

If this region suffers a severe blow, the economy of the peninsula will never recover.

At this time, Marshal Steck was focusing on the repair and renovation of the "Dangerous Wanderer".

The "most powerful" Storm Crimson is temporarily unable to fight due to the production schedule of its titanium alloy components.

They could only send the Cherno Alpha from the Broken Dome base in Vladivostok to fight.

Cherno Alpha is a tough "meat shield" mecha.

The Kaiju on the opposite side, codenamed "Flame God", was not much inferior.

It has the appearance of an amphibian or reptile, with a head covered with spiky keratin.

Its bloody mouth was wide open, enough to easily swallow a heavy main battle tank. However, its most powerful weapon was not its physical attacks, but the extremely sour and rotten substances that spewed out of its mouth.

These acidic substances of unknown composition will cause organic matter to rot rapidly, emit thick smoke, and then burn when they come into contact with the other matter.

Crawling ashore, we passed a town with a permanent population of several thousand.

The "Flame God" spat out a mouthful of "corrupted pulp" at random, and disgusting sour smoke began to fill the sky above the entire town.

In just twenty or thirty seconds, a fire suddenly broke out that engulfed the entire town.

The "Flame God" ignored the small towns engulfed in flames and continued to move towards the more densely populated, modernized, and more urbanized Seoul metropolitan area.

By the time Cherno Alpha arrived at the scene, the "Flame God" had already been wreaking havoc on the outskirts of the urban area for a long time.

Hundreds of large fire trucks came from all over the country to provide support, but it was beyond everyone's expectations.

The sour and rotten substances spewed out by the "Flame God" can cause fires.

But its nemesis is not the water in the fire truck.

Under the water mist all over the sky, the smoke caused by the fire became thicker.

Local firefighters who were close enough to the fire scene could even hear bursts of "crackling" sounds.

Before they could react, the water mist was replaced by thick white smoke, which spread in all directions with the wind.

Just by taking a puff of white smoke, the people around him began to breathe rapidly, their skin ulcerated, and they fell to the ground. After struggling for dozens of seconds, they died on the spot.

This sudden change stunned the local commanders in charge of rescue and firefighting.

By the time they realized something was wrong, there was no one alive around the fire scene.

A larger area of ​​thick smoke slowly drifted towards the urban area along the wind direction.

The commander who saw this scene on the big screen turned pale with fright.

Because not long ago, the Seoul metropolitan area had just ordered its citizens to evacuate the city.

Now the streets and alleys are crowded with hundreds of millions of citizens.

White smoke drifted by, and the streets fell to the ground in an instant.

The streets, which were originally bustling with people arguing and cursing about traffic problems out of the city, suddenly became quiet.

Occasionally there were a few cries of pain, bearing witness to the inhuman torture suffered by the citizens.

"Who on earth can stop this demon?!"

Just a puff of white smoke caused the deaths and injuries of 50,000 to 100,000 citizens.

No one dared to imagine the terrible damage that would be caused when the "Flame God" entered the core area of ​​the urban circle.

Fortunately, the Cherno Alpha finally arrived and appeared in front of the "Flame God".

The battle broke out instantly.

The "Flame God" continuously spewed out sour and putrid pus, and opened its mouth to bite Cherno Alpha.

Before this, Kaiju had never demonstrated this terrifying "long-range magic attack" ability.

The Cherno Alfa's observation port was corroded by acidic substances, obstructing the driver's vision.

Fortunately, Cherno Alpha is tough enough, and its thick tungsten steel shell can resist acid corrosion.

After realizing the terrible consequences of the "Engine" defeating the Cherno Alpha, local officials frantically asked PPDC for help.

However, ppdc was unable to provide an effective solution.

At the nearby Shattered Dome Base, the giant mechas stationed there often have slow repair and maintenance due to a shortage of funding, and most of them are unable to immediately participate in support operations.

By the time those mechas in good condition arrived, it was too late.

Under pressure, ppdc proposed to use tactical nuclear bombs to solve the problem of "Flame God" once and for all.

However, this aroused strong opposition from local officials.

Detonating a tactical nuclear bomb near a metropolitan area?

How is this different from suicide?
Weapons with less power cannot cause any damage to Kaiju.

They don't want powerful weapons, but they are also worried that they may accidentally harm cities and residents.

In this case, ppdc can only say that it is powerless.

Just as local officials were gradually falling into despair, the coalition government expressed its willingness to provide "humanitarian aid" to local officials.

Although ppdc tried hard to avoid interference from the coalition government.

But at this moment, local officials have regarded the coalition government as their last straw.

After a brief negotiation, the space fleet belonging to the United Government immediately set out and flew towards the sky above the peninsula.

The incident happened suddenly, and the giant mechas under the United Government were still conducting various tests in the third dimension and were unable to provide support immediately.

The United Government can only dispatch a space fleet with greater mobility and combat effectiveness.

This is an important opportunity to make our presence felt in front of indigenous peoples in the Pacific Rim region and even the world.

The coalition government will certainly not let it go.

As for the weapons on the space battleships, will they cause too many "open wounds" to the "Flame God", thereby leading to pollution of the urban area?

To be honest, the coalition government doesn't care because local officials have no choice.

Not long after, dozens of United Government space battleships arrived over the Seoul metropolitan area with the force of a dark cloud looming over the city.
