Chapter 252: Chapter 195: Witness the Pinnacle of Human Strength

At midnight, a heart-stopping alarm resounded.

The lights in the hospital ward building lit up one by one.

Many people, startled from their sleep with bleary eyes, ran to the windows, looking towards the source of the disturbance.

Within the night as thick as ink, the outline of a gray building faintly emerged, as if completely devoured by the darkness.

Now and then, there was a dense sound like the popping of beans, mixing with the alarms and carried by the wind.

It seemed as if some unknown horror was unfolding within that building.

Just as everyone was confused and uneasy, a deep and powerful roar came from afar, drowning out all the unusual commotion.

Several armed helicopters, like steel eagles, tore through the night sky with a howl, swiftly flying over the building.

Descending, the rotor wash from the blades caused the surrounding trees to tremble violently.

On the ground, a procession of armored vehicles flowed like a steel flood, continuously pouring into the hospital grounds.

The Ren’an Hospital, awakened by the alarm, was once again enveloped in a solemn atmosphere.

Those armored vehicles thundered toward the Rehabilitation Center, tightly enveloping the area around the building.

Squads of soldiers in camouflage poured out of the vehicles, swiftly and agilely established a defensive perimeter in an orderly fashion.

They held assault rifles, using armored vehicles and barricades as covers, crouched on the ground, and pointed their muzzles at every entrance and exit of the building.

"Falcon Squad, maintain low-altitude reconnaissance, pay close attention to any movement inside the building!"

"All other units, check your weapons and equipment, await further instructions, do not act without my order!"

Inside the command vehicle, the military’s person-in-charge, Colonel Deng, held a walkie-talkie, rapidly issuing a series of combat orders.

Then he turned to the communications soldier next to him who was nervously adjusting equipment and asked:

"Still no contact with the personnel stationed inside?"

The communications soldier shook his head in response, still striving to search for a signal.

With a frown and his gaze firmly fixated on the building shrouded in darkness.

The armed helicopters circled in the air as instructed.

The bright searchlights from underneath the aircraft, like swords, swept across every darkened window on each floor of the building.

Yet at this moment, it was quiet inside, unnaturally so, to the point that not even sporadic gunfire could be heard.

It is known that the military decided to house those infected by the ’Black Rain’ here.

Not only because Ren’an Hospital is conveniently close to West Mountain, but also because there is a military base nearby, which allows for immediate support and ensures the quickest arrival at any scene.

Thinking of this, Colonel Deng had a bad feeling in his heart.

Could it be that he was too late?

From receiving the report to mobilizing the emergency combat troops, to arriving here, only about ten minutes had passed.

The speed of the response could not be said to be slow.

Even if among the patients detained at the Rehabilitation Center there were unexpected mutations and a mutant emerged, it was impossible for them to annihilate over a hundred stationed soldiers in an instant, right?

Just as Colonel Deng was beset with doubts, suddenly, a cacophony mixed with agonized shouts came through the walkie-talkie:

"Hello... hello... is anyone there? We’re on the fifth floor and have been attacked by monsters, there are heavy casualties, we need support..."

The voice was broken, and the signal seemed like it could cut out at any moment.

Colonel Deng’s eyebrows shot up, and he gripped the walkie-talkie, repeatedly asking:

"What’s the situation inside? Why is there no movement? How many of you are left?"

"I don’t know... the number of those monsters is unclear, they have great Strength, bullets can hardly kill them, and night vision goggles can’t make out their figures clearly..."

"There’s also... there’s also one that seems to be the leader, it emits roars to command the other monsters, just now it instantly killed many people, you must be careful when you encounter it... we who are left are too severely injured, we can only hide in a room..."

The surviving soldier gasped, answering intermittently.

Hearing this, Colonel Deng’s expression grew even more solemn. fгee𝑤ebɳoveɭ.cøm

Although he had roughly understood the situation inside, his heart was still caught in hesitation and struggle.

Should he immediately send a strike team into the building for a rescue, engaging in close quarters combat with the unknown monsters?

Or continue to stay outside, using the advantage of firepower to seal off the building, waiting for a more opportune moment?

Weighing the options repeatedly, fine beads of sweat appeared on Colonel Deng’s forehead.

He knew well that this standoff with the monsters afforded no mistakes.

The slightest carelessness could lead to greater loss of life or negative impact, and by tomorrow, facing him might be the consequence of being stripped of his uniform and subject to disciplinary action.

Already, when taking over the garrison duty, his superiors had hinted.

If they encountered an overpowering force, they could go so far as to demolish the entire building.

With this in mind, he raised his head, his eyes anxiously on the sealed and reinforced windows of the fifth floor.

At any cost, the bottom line was that the monsters must not be allowed to escape, thus creating greater panic in society.

Otherwise, even if he were executed by firing squad, he could not take the responsibility.

Thus, they must solve the problem with the monsters in the shortest time possible, using the most reliable method.

With this thought, Colonel Deng took a deep breath, and immediately made a decision:

"All units, command! All firepower teams continue to aim at the building’s entrances and exits, hold the line with all your strength, assault teams prepare to enter the building. Your task is not to kill the targets but to draw those monsters out..."

He issued a rather cautious order, which could also be described as a "Flush out the enemy" plan.

The goal was to utilize the open area, relying on firepower advantage to annihilate the enemy en masse, rather than engaging in the relatively difficult, unpredictable urban warfare.

Following the command, the most elite assault team quickly assembled in front of the main entrance, preparing to infiltrate the dark building occupied by monsters.
