Kuchi's strike was effective.
The enemies seed not to have expected that one of the Wind Falcons, which had just been flailing around in the sky headlessly, could turn around so quickly and launch an attack.
The machine gun and laser cannon fired simultaneously, and within a few seconds, the street where the band of monsters had been charging was plowed through.
The effect was still very good.
Those monsters still possessed so sort of Spiritual Energy trait, allowing them to activate a self-protection around themselves when under attack. However, how could such protection withstand the Wind Falcon, when it could be breached with a single overcharged shot from a laser rifle, or several intensive shots in a short ti?
A 40 milliter caliber could already be considered a 'cannon', let alone the laser cannon.
Either of these weapons, if they hit their target, would cause a devastating blow to the creature's body.
The three-ter-tall lizard monster was no exception.
The self-protective Spiritual Energy would be penetrated, the 40 milliter Kinetic Cannon could directly obliterate half of its body; the laser cannon would simply dissolve its torso.
After a rapid burst, a third of the monsters charging had fallen to the ground, becoming piles of mangled flesh.
Kuchi was not yet satisfied and wanted to fire another round.
Although those still alive were no longer foolish enough to continue sprinting down the wide-open and unsheltered street, instead they took cover behind the whitewashed houses on either side, moving forward step by step.
But those brick-wood structures, pretty as they were, could not withstand the machine gun fire or the laser beams.
Even though the results wouldn't be as exaggerated as before, a little was still sothing.
What's more, he was covering his ground comrades in this manner.
Lacroix and others, carrying a large amount of data and materials, were moving to the other Wind Falcon that was still on the ground.
The situation was urgent. Even though many seemingly less valuable and hard-to-transport items had already been abandoned, the remaining stuff was still not insignificant, and they would probably need a few more minutes.
Without intervention, those monsters could reach them in a minute or two.
Under the suppression of firepower, not to ntion the casualties, at least those monsters wouldn't be able to reach the battlefield quickly.
He was using this thod to buy ti for the special forces below.
However, things were not going to be that easy.
Suddenly, he felt that the Wind Falcon he was piloting had gone out of control! Stay updated through empire
The nose of the craft started to turn involuntarily, making flight extrely difficult!
Every maneuver he made was either amplified or minimized, and the Wind Falcon beca very unstable.
At such a mont, he still had the leisure to complain to himself, "Good thing I didn't have automatic fire on, or else I'd have to send myself to the Discipline Committee..."
In such a situation, any mber of the Allied Air Force would have been unable to escape a crash.
Without their servo skulls, those pilots about to enter the fray were barely able to perform, let alone now when the entire aircraft's controls were experiencing problems.
But wasn't he claid to be so ace pilot?
Even in these circumstances, although he couldn't continue providing fire support to his comrades on the ground to help them suppress those charging monsters, he hadn't succumbed to a crash.
The Wind Falcon was spinning in the sky, but not falling down was good enough.
Moreover, the special forces led by Lacroix weren't pushovers either.
Taking advantage of the little ti Lieutenant Kuchi had bought for them, Lacroix had led a team to form a makeshift blocking position to buy ti for their comrades behind.
Their shooting skills were exceptionally strong, and they had already been tipped off about the special aspects of those lizard monsters.
They would use concentrated fire and, when necessary, overcharge their LR5 Laser Rifles at critical monts, even if it ant using up a high-energy battery in one go.
One after another, the monsters were annihilated during their charge.
Lacroix was the one with the most kills.
The power crystal he had equipped in his Exoskeleton Armor was too luxurious to be used on individual equipnt but provided him with outstanding combat capabilities. Each shot was an overcharged blast, with a high frequency, and key to this was his ability to nearly always hit the target.
His fire alone was as effective as all the others combined.
Given enough ti and the right distance, Lacroix alone might have had a chance to shoot down all those lizard monsters during their charge.
Unfortunately, there was no ti.
Even though the monsters had already been hit by an aerial cannon barrage, there were still upwards of fifty of them. The distance between them wasn't that great to begin with, and under the command of a huge one wearing a vague white lab coat that seed to be the leader, they charged ferociously and fearlessly, consistently closing the gap to the blocking position.
And the good news was that the Wind Falcon behind them had finally finished loading the cargo.
Everything else was left behind.
Lacroix called out, instructing his comrades to fight while retreating.
As for himself, he stood at the very end of the group, providing stable and precise strikes, ti after ti.
Moreover, he targeted that particularly distinctive enemy.
