I Can Enhance My Talents Using Unlimited Skill Points Chapter 107 – Air Raid (I)  

In the sky a few kilometers northwest of East Lake City, 3,000 to 4,000 flying mutant beasts lined up in a row, blocking off the sunlight. The group spanned several kilometers.

The flying mutant beasts moved extremely quickly, almost at the speed of sound. Wherever they passed, they created shock waves, just like supersonic fighter jets.

At this moment, the group of flying mutant beasts, led by three birds that were more than 10 meters long, were rapidly charging towards East Lake City.

Troops were stationed in all four directions: north, south, east, and west of East Lake City.

In front of each set of troops, dozens of guided missile trucks were parked. On each of the trucks was a missile that was more than a meter in diameter and about 10 meters long.

After these missiles detonated, a large number of steel needles would shoot out in all directions instead of having the lethality of a single point explosion. They were specially made to deal with ordinary flying mutant beasts.

In addition, there were three warriors from the military in each set of troops. They were the leaders of the same rank who were responsible for holding back the flying mutant beasts.

In each of the four sets of troops,the military captains who were carrying weapons on their shoulders gave the orders into the walkie-talkie almost at the same time. “Get ready, fire!”

A few seconds later, “Bang…” The back of all the guided missile trucks lit up with a red light. Flames shot out from the bottom of the hundreds of missiles which instantly shot up into the sky, creating a large amount of white smoke.

In the next moment, the hundreds of missiles formed a large net in the sky. The area covered by the net was about one-tenth of the area covered by the flying mutant beasts.

This kind of coordinated attack was much more efficient than firing freely at the enemy.

The flying mutant beasts within the range of the missile net would be hit by the missiles no matter which direction they moved to dodge the attack.

“Rumble…”

Endless explosions echoed through the sky, like a fireworks display.

The distance of several kilometers was extremely short for both the bird-type mutant beasts and the missiles, especially since the two sides were flying towards each other. The bird-type mutant beasts had no time to avoid the missiles.

In addition, this group of flying mutant beasts might not have fought against the advanced weapons from humans before. Most of them only adjusted their flight direction slightly when they saw this, planning to pass through the gaps in the incoming missile net.

In the range of the missile explosions, hundreds of flying mutant beasts that were each three to four meters long fell from the sky like sacks of meat. This was equivalent to heavy objects weighing several tons falling from the sky and crashing straight towards the ground.

At this moment, a few kilometers southeast of East Lake City, there were three watchtowers that were hundreds of meters tall.

The corpses of hundreds of bird-type mutant beasts narrowly avoided the entire East Lake City and smashed into the area where the watchtower was.

Rumbling sounds rang out continuously as the watchtower collapsed, leaving hundreds of holes more than 10 meters wide in the forest.

This was the best distance for the attack that the military professionals had calculated through analysis of the historical data.

The corpses of the dead mutant beasts had not landed in East Lake City, and the staff at the watchtower had already been told to evacuate.

“&%%#!”

The remaining bird-type mutant beasts let out piercing screams and scattered in all directions. The entire group was in chaos, and many of them collided with each other.

They had lived in a valley in the otherworld all year round and had never faced such a combat tactic.

In an instant, before the flying mutant beasts could attack, hundreds of them were already killed by the missiles. Immediately after, hundreds more were injured due to their own confusion.

Taking advantage of the chaos among the flying mutant beasts, hundreds of martial arts experts from the military each led three small teams and appeared at various locations in the city to ensure that every street was guarded by a team.

Each of these martial arts experts had undergone more than six transformations, and their team members were all martial artists who had undergone more than three transformations.

The military had such a large scale of martial arts power as a form of insurance so that they could control the martial arts factions among the civilians.

For example, the Mantis Snake Sword School was a faction with a warrior presiding over them. There were only about 10 core disciples, which was a completely different scale from the hundreds of martial arts experts in the military.

“No wonder so many people disappeared after the war in the west ended.” Chen Yiming sighed when he saw this.

Although the martial arts power of the military was only equivalent to the strength of a small portion of the civilian forces, the military's power could be combined into one large force.

The civilian martial arts factions seemed to be huge, but they were actually scattered all around. Even if a few top factions joined forces, they would be far weaker than the combined forces of the military.

The chaos only lasted for a minute or two. Under the cries of the three flying mutant beasts that were more than 10 meters long, the flying mutant beasts lined up again and hovered in the sky.

At this moment, the bird-type mutant beasts no longer maintained a dense formation. Instead, they spread out in a disorderly manner.

The bird-type mutant beasts were shocked by the missile net attack from earlier. Even the mutant beasts at the warrior realm could not make an attack at this scale.

“&%$#…” The three bird-type mutant beasts leading the group gave the order at the same time.

The flying mutant beasts hesitated for a moment, but in the end, they obeyed the order and split into four small groups. Each group had less than a thousand mutant beasts.

The three bird-type mutant beasts that were more than 10 meters long led hundreds of the bird-type mutant beasts towards East Lake City from the northwest. The remaining three groups launched attacks towards the city from the other three directions.

Facing the scattered flying mutant beasts, the military did not continue to fire their missiles. This was because the price of one missile was more than a million yuan, and firing a single round had already cost hundreds of millions of yuan.

Soon, the flying mutant beasts swooped down onto the city, and the entire East Lake City fell into chaos.

In a low-rise house, the doors and windows were securely blocked off by cabinets, tables, and other furniture. A family of four hid under the bed and trembled.

“Bang!”

A bird-type mutant beast randomly chose a spot to land and happened to land on the roof of this house. Its sharp claws that were glowing with a metallic luster instantly pierced through the roof, and its three to four-meter-long body directly caused the house to collapse.

Countless bricks and stones fell down, burying the family of four hiding under the bed.

From the beginning to the end, even though they were choking on dust and tears, a little boy and a little girl still had their mouths covered tightly by their parents so that they would not make a single sound.

Fortunately, the mutant beast's sharp claws had landed in the hall of the house, and it quickly flapped its wings and flew up again.

At the edge of the city center, in a commercial building more than 40 floors high, everyone rushed down the stairs through the emergency passage and elevator after hearing the air raid siren.

However, only a few minutes had passed from the moment the air raid siren rang to the moment the military fired their missiles at the flying mutant beasts. Even with the time during which the flying mutant beasts had been in chaos, there was less than 10 minutes.

10 minutes was not enough for thousands of ordinary people to evacuate the building successfully. At this moment, more than half of them were still stuck in the emergency passage.

Three flying mutant beasts that were seven to eight meters long with the strength of human warrior candidates dodged the rain of bullets from the military and shook off the few warrior candidates blocking their way.

Their metallic beaks and sharp claws pierced straight through the building. The three flying mutant beasts attacked the upper, middle, and lower portions of the building at the same time.

One of the mutant beasts caught a glimpse of the rapidly moving elevator. Its sharp beak, which was more than three meters long, pierced through the steel-wrapped elevator with a single peck.

Black smoke rose from the short circuit caused by the attack and the elevator instantly exploded, revealing the situation inside.

The people at the front who had been directly in line of the beak were swallowed in one bite. The people beside them felt their legs go weak and fell down the elevator passage, their fate unknown.

Similar scenes were happening throughout the building. Some people were stuck in the emergency passage and crushed by the flying mutant beasts, leaving behind countless broken limbs.

There was also someone who tried to be a smart alec and combined several office desks together, then sealed up the exposed portions and hid inside them, hoping that the flying mutant beasts would not be able to see him.

Little did he know that the building would be rocked back and forth by the three flying mutant beasts that were seven to eight meters long. The heavy concrete pillars supporting the building had long since been broken, and it would not be long before the entire building collapsed.
