"There are still too many flying beasts. The headquarters are telling us to hold on until the helicopters arrive. With the additional firepower, it should be enough to clear up the enemies."
"Tsk." The commander gnashed his teeth. "Do they know what we're doing here?"
The commander couldn't really do anything about this, fully aware that this was just a whine. He truly had no other choice but to keep the beasts here, especially with more and more beasts coming.
The worst possible outcome would be the appearance of another Tier 7 beast. When that happened, the base would be overrun by those two Tier 7 beasts.
"Fine! We'll change our arrangement." The commander started giving his orders to all armies.
As expected, the Tier 7 beast also ordered his beasts, causing those low-intelligence beasts to fight in an orderly manner.
No matter how hard the commander tried to gain the upper hand, the Tier 7 beast would be prepared for it and send more beasts in that direction. In the end, this was a battle where the beasts outnumbered at least twenty times. Even with all the supplies here, it would be hard to win.
That was why the commander chose attrition warfare, which allowed him to preserve as many soldiers as possible.
Finally, after maintaining the balance for thirty minutes, flapping sounds echoed from the side.
The soldiers couldn't help but turn their heads to the side before raising their vision, finding a group of helicopters.
Unlike the fighter jet, the helicopters weren't fast, allowing them to engage in a close battle.
Of course, the ones that saw them were not just the humans. Even the flying beasts turned around, realizing that there was yet another wave of reinforcement.
"Ree!" The pteranodon let out a cry, ordering the rest of the flying beasts to turn around and engage with this wave of reinforcement.
The flying beasts hurriedly followed its instructions, creating a wall that would block the helicopters.
However, that was the last thing they wanted.
After all, those helicopters sent a wave of missiles toward them.
The flying beasts were trying to fly away before approaching them, but surprisingly, the helicopters immediately moved toward the base as if their intention was the base, not them.
The moment they reached the base, the ropes started to fall down as soldiers jumped off the helicopters.
To make sure the base survived, they had to do this first. Once the helicopters were empty, they started rising again and raining the beasts with all their missiles.
The flying beasts were trying to take them down, but they had to first pass over the wall. A series of turrets immediately shot them down, protecting the helicopters.
Meanwhile, the helicopters provided as much firepower as possible.
The commander had ordered them to remain on that spot because the beasts were much more dangerous than they expected.
Although it was a shame that they couldn't go around the wall and shoot them down from behind, the people complied and followed the direction of the base's commander, as he was the one with the highest rank.
Now that they had an easier time, the commander asked on the radio, "How many are you?"
"We only have 100 people, sir. All of us are elites, so please assign us as you see fit."
The commander's expression turned serious. "Other reinforcements?"
"There will be drops, but we have to find the location. We are in the process of contacting a Tier 8 human. We should expect him to come in thirty minutes. The rest of the ground units still need one more hour."
The commander fell silent for a moment before saying, "Keep the flying beast number minimum. Let's call in the air support again. Are there any soldiers outside the base right now? There should be an empty spot on our left. No, use the previous base to bring the reinforcement. That place should be safe."
Once the order was given, the humans started releasing everything they had to regain their upper hand. It would only last for a while, but that was enough.
As soon as the number of flying beasts decreased, they sent forth the air strike, especially to the spot that the commander had instructed earlier.
A series of bombs hit the target and blasted all the beasts on that one spot.
There was a reason the commander chose this spot. Behind this spot were numerous beasts, much more than any other spots.
That was why he wanted to break them apart by puncturing a hole.
As a result, the beasts had to turn around, causing the flow to be disrupted. This would buy the base a bit more time.
"Good." The commander's expression turned serious, looking at the Tier 7 beast. "In that case, there is only one thing left to do."
"Sir. This is too dangerous. There are still too many enemies around that beast. If you go right now, you will end up endangering your lives."
"If we don't attack the Tier 7 right now, the Tier 7 will act the same as mine, commanding the beasts as he pleases. You should be aware that high level beasts have high intelligence. This beast must have the same intelligence as us, no, its intelligence might surpass average humans." The commander squinted his eyes.
Looking at how well the beast was able to keep up with him, especially commanding the flying beasts to stop their reinforcement, made him realize that he had to keep the beast busy for any reinforcements to be effective.
"You are to arrange the positions of our reinforcement, specifically those helicopters. We truly need them if we want to win. Use them until the ground army arrives."
The soldier gulped down before nodding his head. "Understood, sir. I won't disappoint you."
The commander jumped off the wall with a smile, heading straight to the Tier 7 beast.
But because of his actions, there was one thing that changed. Instead of keeping every single beast in this place, those explosions actually scattered a portion of the beasts.
And due to their positions, the beasts ultimately headed west, which was none other than Libation Fiesta's location.
