Land of Light: I am Supermodel Tiga, One-Punch King

Not to mention the various branches, the headquarters also has more than just the Victory Team as a combat unit.

During the battle between the GUTS team and giant monsters and aliens.

The police department's patrol units are also fighting against various aliens, spaceships, and small monsters.

In addition to the Victory Team's command center, the operations center of the Guard Patrol Division is also a convergence point for intelligence information from various departments.

Today, a top-level intelligence report instantly caught the attention of the operations center personnel.

"An earthquake has occurred near the center of Zildar. 々!"

"Notify the director immediately!"

"Zelda Center, this is TPC headquarters. Can you hear me? Answer immediately!"

While ground personnel were dispatched to investigate, the operations center continuously contacted the Zelda center.

However, perhaps the earthquake disrupted the electromagnetic waves, as the satellite images were somewhat blurry, and the Zelda center did not respond for a long time.

Upon hearing the news, Director Sawai rushed to the operations center: "What's the situation with the damage? What's the condition of the storage room?"

"Under verification."

"Hurry! Ensuring the safety of the storage room is the most important thing!"

The fact that there are no abnormalities now is the best news, but the fear is that aftershocks or damage to the storage room could lead to a leak of Zelda gas.

A moment later, another message came in.

A bird-shaped monster departed from Mount Rausu in Hokkaido and flew straight toward the center of Zildar with a clear objective.

"Immediately notify the GUTS team to set off!" Sawai's heart tightened. Why would a monster target Zelda Gas?

"Yes!"

Unit 1 and Unit 2 quickly took off.

As a precaution, under Munakata's orders.

Shinjo and Horii piloted Unit 1, while Daigo, Rena, Commander Munakata, and Reg were in Unit 2.

Both fighter jets are several times the speed of sound, far exceeding the speed of the bird-like monster that just went supersonic.

So when the bird-shaped monster was hundreds of kilometers away from the center of Zildar, the GUTS team had already crossed the center of Zildar.

"Target ahead reacts at a speed of 1500 kilometers per hour."

On Unit 1, Horii reported the enemy's position and speed.

"Commander, the enemy is getting faster and faster."

Daigo looked at the icons on the radar screen and gave a reminder.

Reg looked out the window. White clouds filled the sky, and the mountains and fields were lush and green. Sila used to be able to see these things too.

But now, under the influence of Zelda gas and by deliberately consuming various radioactive materials, Sira has become a monster.

They can only endure the pain for a long time in the volcano, listening to the flow of lava and watching the swirling smoke.

"The target is 30,000 meters ahead and will be in sight within 15 seconds."

“Go around to the back of the target,” Megumi Kijima immediately said.

In aerial combat, attacking from behind to the front is the best course of action.

However, Director Sawai's serious-looking image replaced Megumi Iruma on the computer screen, forcibly taking over the role.

"You can't attack from behind, attack from the front!"

"Change the monster's flight path!"

A head-on collision would almost certainly be suicide.

This order made Zongfang frown deeply: "What?"

Megumi Kijima was also taken aback: "Why?"

Director Sawai is neither someone who doesn't understand military affairs nor someone who doesn't care about his subordinates. What is the reason for this?

"I'll repeat myself: attack head-on, change the monster bird's flight path!" Sawai, worried that the GUTS team might not realize the seriousness of the situation, repeated the order.

"Director, the strange bird's flight speed is not as fast as the Flying Swallow."

"It would be better to attack from both sides from the front, encircle and flank in multiple rounds, and launch a continuous attack."

Reg said, "If there are problems with the frontal attack, it will actually affect the mission."

"Okay! We'll do as you say."

Sawai also realized that she had lost her composure because she was too anxious.

Unit 1 and Unit 2 immediately veered left and right, drawing two arcs while keeping their noses facing the strange bird.

"Start attacking!"

Whoosh whoosh—

Crimson laser bullets and green laser cannons were fired from multiple gun barrels on the two fighter jets.

The laser struck the strange bird's body, splashing up a large amount of high-temperature sparks, but it clearly did not cause any damage to the bird.

The strange bird neither slowed down nor retaliated, but continued to fly forward.

"Increase firepower, aim for the eyes and wings."

Seeing that the strange bird had strong physical defenses, Zongfang immediately changed his target and attacked the bird's weak points.

chi chi-

A sharp laser beam struck the strange bird's head, and scorching sparks entered its eyes.

“Ah—”

The strange bird let out a cry, turned around, and quickly flew away.

Unit 1 and Unit 2 quickly gave chase, but the strange bird soon hid in the nearby Asami Mt. volcano.

"Headquarters, the strange bird has gone into hiding and cannot be attacked for the time being."

Zongfang inquired in the command room.

"Let's go back for now." Seeing that Sawai had not given any orders, Iruma Kei told the GUTS team to return to base first.

Sawai pondered for a moment, then decided to explain to the GUTS team the importance of this operation and the reasons for issuing the order.

"Twenty years ago, a scientist accidentally created a terrifying substance."

"He is Masachika Nezu, who once served as the director of the Hokkaido Energy Development Research Institute."

Masachika Nezu's information was retrieved by Sawai and transmitted to the onboard computer of the Hien.

"At that time, Nezu took a sample of Zildar gas back to his research room in Hokkaido for study."

"As a result, gas leaked out."

"A gas the size of a bottle of eye drops, released into the air, caused the Nezu family's house and the nearby forest to be completely burned down."

The documents contain images of the aftermath of the disaster.

The area affected by the damage exceeded one square kilometer. (Zhao Wanghao)

"Later, the Zildar gas was confiscated and sealed in this Zildar Center when the defense forces were disbanded."

"But if it is attacked by a monster and explodes, one-tenth of the land territory of the entire Sakura Country will be burned down."

"Within this area, all life will be destroyed."

Sawai's voice remained calm and unhurried, yet the Victory Team could fully sense the heaviness within it.

This is a disaster comparable to the last neutron bombing, but even more unstable.

Now, the GUTS team finally understood why Sawai had given the inexplicable order to launch a frontal attack.

It's almost as absurd as a certain former minister ordering Asgard to abandon its advantageous ranged attacks and switch to melee combat.

"That monster was heading directly towards the center of Zelda, which is rather suspicious."

Horii voiced his doubts.

Instead of retaliating when attacked, they continue to advance. Is there some unknown information?

Shinjo then said, "It's strange, really. That strange bird was ugly all over, but its eyes were so beautiful."

"In short, we must stop that strange bird."

Sawai concluded, "This task is now entrusted to your GUTS team. Captain Gijō, please take care of it."

"Yes!" Megumi nodded solemnly.

Chapter 111 Xuanfeng Xila, transform into a phoenix and fly!

Just as the GUTS team was closely monitoring the strange bird, a phone call came in from the personnel on duty outside the base.

"The GUTS team? There's a guy here named Masachika Nezu who says he knows information about that monster from before."

"Nezu Masaki?"
