Chapter 330 Lightning Power

There are a large number of thunder-controlling beasts gathered on Ning Xuan's side, with thunder and lightning everywhere, but the poisonous abyss beasts have not spread towards this side.

On the contrary, Admiral Yang and his group, who had just come out of the underground safe base, were attacked by the poisonous abyss beast before they could evacuate completely because there were so many people to be evacuated.

Without forming an effective battle formation, a large number of soldiers in the large army were attacked by poisonous beasts.

However, the people who evacuated first were all experienced on the battlefield, and they quickly counterattacked the poisonous beast.

The initial counterattack was not smooth. Although the soldiers' guns and cannons could cause damage to the poisonous beasts, they could not kill them with one blow. This caused the poisonous beasts to counterattack frantically, spitting venom and polluting the environment of the entire area.

When Admiral Yang Lei came to the ground, he saw the external environment shrouded in black and purple poisonous fog and many soldiers were poisoned. He immediately ordered the biochemical department to check the nature, hazards and main components of the poisonous fog in order to find a solution.

The thick black and purple poisonous fog before his eyes spread across the surface like a living thing. He raised his hand to signal the biochemical troops to quickly establish an isolation zone, then turned to the signalman and ordered: "Immediately initiate a level 3 biochemical emergency response."

In less than ten minutes, the biochemical team in fully enclosed protective clothing sent back preliminary data. The voice of team leader Chen Shanshi sounded dull through the gas mask: "The main components of the poison mist are neurotoxin A-13 and corrosive organic acids, with a pH of 2.8 and strong volatility. Contact will burn the skin and airway mucosa, cause airway damage, laryngeal edema, and in severe cases, cause suffocation in a short period of time." Suddenly, a cough came from the communicator.

Dean Ding's holographic image suddenly connected to the system. Behind her was a hastily built field hospital. The usually elegant medical expert now looked unhappy. "This toxin can penetrate through the skin and cause nerve paralysis in a short period of time. These situations can be solved by wearing protective clothing and building an isolation area. However, this poison mist can induce mental riots. Even if there is no direct contact, the high concentration will still work."

"Did everyone hear that? Now let's talk about the solution. How do we clear the poisonous fog?" Yang Lei looked at the projected screen in front of him. The screen was displaying the vital signs of the first batch of soldiers who were exposed to the poisonous fog. There were large areas of burn scars on their bodies. If it weren't for the strong physique of the spirit controller, they would have died long ago.

"I think in order to control the generation of poisonous fog from the source, we have to stop hunting poisonous beasts. Poisonous beasts will only spit out venom when their lives are in danger. Just now our soldiers were attacked by poisonous beasts and immediately launched high-intensity thermal weapons fire. The poisonous beasts were severely injured, so they spit out venom, leading to the creation of this environment." An officer who had some knowledge of this strange beast suggested.

"This strange beast is attacking us. If we don't hunt it, are we just going to die?" another officer retorted.

"Of course not. We won't hunt them, but we can drive them away. These strange beasts are afraid of strong noises. We can use sonic weapons to drive them away first and build a ground security base. It won't be too late to formulate the next strangulation plan then." The officer who spoke earlier suggested.

"Major General Wang, there are usually more than one type of strange beasts that appear in space cracks. If other strange beasts appear during this period, and other types of strange beasts happen to be not afraid of sonic weapons, how can we defend ourselves?"

"If other kinds of strange beasts appear, we will find other solutions according to the situation. Now, stop hunting the poisonous beasts. First, deploy sonic weapons to drive away the poisonous beasts." Admiral Yang Lei quickly made up his mind and gave the order.

"Major General Wang, since you know that these strange beasts are afraid of sonic weapons, do you know how to eliminate the poisonous fog produced by these strange beasts?" asked Admiral Yang Lei.

Different types of poison fog have different ways of breaking it. Some poison fog can be frozen to inactivate the toxic components in it, and some poisons can be roasted with flames to burn out the toxic components. These are all discovered through experimental research. Once the wrong method is used, it will often backfire.

"What the Poison Abyss Beast fears most is lightning energy, especially the purple lightning that can cleanse the evil spirit. The Poison Abyss Beast will die if it touches it. This poisonous fog will instantly lose its activity under the cover of purple lightning." Major General Wang said somewhat frustratedly.

He knew that there were very few spirit controllers with lightning abilities in the army. Even if one appeared occasionally, their level was very low and they were completely useless. Therefore, even if they knew how to restrain the Poison Abyss Beast, they would be powerless.

"Can we lure the Thunder Beasts here, or lure the Poison Beasts to the mining area where the Thunder Beasts gather, and see if these two species can consume each other." An officer suggested.

"You can give it a try, but the chances of success are slim."

"Speaking of spirit controllers with lightning abilities, the current chief commander of District 11, Ning Zhi, has lightning abilities. Contact him as soon as possible and ask him to come and try." Dean Ding Xiangyang had specifically investigated Ning Zhi's situation because Ning Zhi had taken Ning Han away in front of him, and he suddenly remembered this person at this moment.

"Yes, Major General Wang, you lead the soldiers from District 12 to the Ninth Mining Area immediately to replace Ning Zhi who is stationed in the Ninth Mining Area. Let Commander Ning come to the Black Mountain Plain immediately." Admiral Yang Lei gave an order to Major General Wang.

"Yes." The man immediately took the order and went to the ninth mining area.

Yang Lei looked at the makeshift field hospital. There was a room where many dead soldiers were placed. On the other side, seriously injured soldiers were wailing. The atmosphere in the hospital was painful and desperate.

"We should have established a ground safety base long ago. If we had a ground safety base, we wouldn't be so passive when faced with such an emergency today." Yang Lei looked a little sad.

"Admiral Yang, you made this suggestion after you took over the base. It's just that the military has been slow to approve it. This has nothing to do with you," his confidant comforted him.

"It's too late to say this. Go and see if Ning Zhi has arrived?" Yang Lei urged.

The Ninth Mining Area where Ning Xuan was stationed was not close to the Black Mountain Plain. By the time Ning Xuan received the order from General Yang and led his subordinates to the Black Mountain Plain, a temporary base of considerable scale had already been built on the Black Mountain Plain.

The central part of this temporary base is a level-three isolation zone set up by the biological and chemical troops. In the isolation zone, you do not need to wear biological and chemical protective clothing. As soon as you leave the isolation zone, you must wear biological and chemical protective clothing to avoid being harmed by poisonous fog.

Under the interference of sonic weapons, the poisonous beasts gathered on the outskirts of the temporary base and did not dare to approach.
