Chapter 350 Bloodbath
Seeing the two people each had their own mind and scheme, Vanessa realized her identity might truly not mean much to them.
'These two are sly foxes, and I bet they are scheming against me too.' Vanessa thought to herself.
Nevertheless, now was not the time to think of their cunningness, but the impending danger from the monster wave.
Aside from the constant tremor in the Iron Sentinel, they were able to see the other mercenaries and soldiers beginning to suppress the monster wave.
"We need some more people to cover the fire here!" A person shouting for assistance, his guns rapidly shooting at the Gilaso variants that attempted to breach their defensive line.
"We need more backup here as well. There's too many of them." On the far opposite side of the person, another was shouting for assistance.
The defensive lines they had set up were far and wide, making it extremely difficult to keep their defenses from being breached by the seemingly unlimited number of Gilaso variants.
Of course, everyone knew the defensive lines were too far stretched, but there was no other choice. The frontline covered large acres of land, so they needed to ensure each of them was blocking the monsters from entering.
As bullets, grenades, and other weaponry rained chaos on the frontline, each of the commanders was swiftly taking their post to control the situation.
From the far end of the west side, Benedict had taken over and began making formations, commanding his soldiers and the other mercenaries in the area.
"Soldiers maintain the light machine gun and create a narrow path for the mercenaries to focus their attention on. Mercenaries, do your best to suppress the narrow path, and don't worry about the other sides!" Benedict shouted loudly, taking up a high post to survey the battlefield.
And a bit further from Benedict, there was Samantha, commanding her Amethyst team to deviate from the Gilaso variant path with their Esper skills.
"Those that can control the terrain, make it difficult for the Gilaso variants to advance further!" Samantha commanded, her hands controlling the magicule presence in the battlefield ahead.
As Samantha utilized her Esper abilities to control the environment, the ground responded to her command.
Ruptures and upheavals appeared, forming obstacles that impeded the progress of the monstrous Gilaso variants. Some fissures were strategic, causing the ground to surge upward and pierce through the creatures, fatally striking their vital organs.
The Gilaso variants that had been struck, shrieked horribly as they succumbed to their injuries.
Samantha's precise and strategic manipulation of the battlefield demonstrated the power of her Esper skills.
The Amethyst team, under her guidance, worked harmoniously, creating a chaotic yet effective setting that hindered the monsters' advancement. The battlefield became a scene of controlled chaos, orchestrated by Samantha's leadership and her team's coordinated efforts.
While this particular field was subtly suppressed by Samantha, further away from her, Nancy was meticulous in her strategy.
Unlike Samantha's flawless utilization of her skills, Nancy had long ordered her soldiers to set up traps and explosives beforehand, having analyzed the monster's wave movement and making precise calculations.
"As expected, these Gilaso variants are taking the path that I have calculated." Nancy sneered coldly, nodding her head to a soldier, who subsequently sent a signal for them to begin activating the traps.
Nancy's calculated strategy was well underway as the traps and explosives were activated, in line with her precise calculations of the Gilaso variants' movement patterns.
The traps were triggered just as the monstrous wave approached, detonating with a series of loud, echoing explosions. The calculated chain reaction ensued as the traps unleashed their devastating power, causing chaos among the invading horde.
The explosions sent shockwaves through the ground, hurling various monsters into the air, their monstrous forms falling in a frenzy of chaos.
The strategically placed explosives proved to be an effective defense mechanism against the encroaching threat.
Simultaneously, the soldiers were ready, taking advantage of the confusion and disarray among the monsters.
"All soldiers fire your weaponsnow!" A sergeant under Samantha shouted furiously.
They aimed with precision, firing heavy artillery, sniper rounds, and various weaponry to target the weakened Gilaso variants, ensuring those that managed to survive the explosions met their end swiftly.
The landscape was painted in chaos, with smoke billowing from the explosions and the resounding screams of the Gilaso variants blending with the gunfire.
Shrieks of cries from the Gilaso variants could be heard amidst the chaotic field.
This coordinated assault led by Nancy displayed not only the might of the prepared traps but also the skillful execution of a battle strategy.
Her soldiers worked in sync with the planned detonations, further weakening and devastating the monstrous horde.
Amidst the cacophony of battle, the ground had transformed into a minefield, littered with the remains of the Gilaso variants. The soldiers, now emboldened by their initial success, prepared for the next phase of the relentless assault, all under the calculated leadership of Nancy.
"Do we start the next phase now, Commander Nancy?" The same sergeant now looked at Nancy and asked whether they should proceed or not.
Nancy pondered for a while before shaking her head. "No need for the next phase at the moment. We've done our job already, so let's wait and see what Theobold and Phoebe are up to."
Since they were tasked with this specific area, not letting the Gilaso variant breach their defensive lines was enough already. She was not going to exhaust her entire resources when it was not needed.
"Oh, make sure that what we just did is relayed back to Gearits City. Let them know our work was done beautifully and that the Warner Family can see it." Nancy grinned somewhat sinisterly.
The sergeant merely nodded his head and began signaling for the support unit of their team to start editing the videos.
While her soldiers were simultaneously multi-tasking under command, Nancy glanced at the bloodbath ahead of her with an expressionless face.
After all, the bloodbath was exactly what she had envisioned when she made these calculations.
"If only I hadn't miscalculated Theobold's collaboration with the Hill Family, then I would have gotten a perfect score," Nancy murmured, seemingly still dissatisfied with the outcome of Damon.
