Chapter 543: Chapter 253 Hoover Dam_3 Chapter 543: Chapter 253 Hoover Dam_3 Yang Qi, though seemingly foolish, was actually a genius with intelligence that soared beyond limits. He had researched the human body and was well aware of its limits. However, he had never seen a body as formidable as Yan Fei's, which fueled his inappropriate desire to study Yan Fei's body.
When Yan Fei was at altitude, he had already observed the nearby terrain and knew that it was a barren area with no signs of human activity. As long as they didn't make too much noise, it should be very safe here. In such a place, it would be more difficult for the US Forces to find them than to reach the heavens. He and Yang Qi hid in an underground fissure, waiting for the Drone's safe return, which would naturally signal the end of everything.
As Yan Fei and Yang Qi found a crack on the ground to hide themselves, several US Forces Fighter Jets flew over. They were the very Fighter Jets that had failed in their pursuit of the Drone. Unwilling to admit defeat, they continued to search the area, hoping to find the vanished Drone…
In a secret underground facility in the suburbs of Los Angeles, a Command Center was operating efficiently. In a meeting room, an energetic, uniformed Caucasian old man was listening to a summary of Intelligence from all sides. In front of him was a round table, with several robust men in military uniforms seated around it. Next to them stood a large LCD TV Screen.
Outside the room, American soldiers were everywhere. By their attire, these men seemed to be US Forces' logistical personnel. At the moment, they were shouting loudly, collecting various pieces of intelligence, looking extremely busy.
In the meeting room, a military-dressed man was giving a report, “The National Guard's 258th Division sent to intercept has suffered heavy losses and can be considered completely annihilated. Although they only lost about 30% of their personnel, all their heavy Weapon equipment has been destroyed, every Helicopter and armed Helicopter has been obliterated, and all Combat Personnel have lost the will to fight.”
As the military-dressed man explained, gruesome scenes from the battlefield appeared on the LCD TV Screen. The big screen clearly showed the situation at the scene of battle: flames soared high into the sky, Smoke obscured the sun, and ammunition exploded without warning, claiming the lives of several unfortunate American soldiers. Blood flowed in streams on the ground, strewn with severely wounded soldiers, severed limbs, and the wreckage of burned-out and destroyed Weapon equipment.
The veteran military man, who had risen through ranks from the bloodiest of battles, couldn't help but tremble after seeing such a terrible scene of battlefield and equipment losses, even spilling his coffee onto the table as his hand shook. He had witnessed scenes of such carnage before, but those were the fates of his enemies. He had never imagined that his own country's army could suffer such calamity, which caused his unusual lapse.
However, the uniformed old man quickly regained his composure. He set down his coffee cup and wiped the spilled coffee off the table with a paper towel before asking, “Was the target sighted?”
Another intelligence officer stood up and reported promptly, “General Miller, we cannot confirm whether the target was present at the scene.”
The old General named Miller furrowed his brows and asked, “Have the analysis results of the satellite photos from earlier come out?”
The intelligence officer replied, “Our satellites captured images of the man with Yang Qi leaving that canyon. Since he had a white cloth over his head, all we know is that he is male; we don't know his identity. But considering he has annihilated so many of our armed forces, there is a high likelihood it's the 'Destroyer'.”
