Chapter 207 - 204: Impenetrable as a Fortress
The electromagnetic storm attack had commenced, but the operation personnel at the command center did not fall into panic; they continued to carry out their duties in an orderly fashion.
Long-range communication had been disrupted, so they sought ways to restore it, with signalmen checking for damage to the antennas.
A metal cabinet was opened, and a shortwave radio used at the platoon level was placed on the table; then it was connected to the outdoor antenna, powered up and tested.
"Hello, hello, this is the command center, do you copy?"
The signalman shouted loudly while the commander stared at the darkened monitor. After a moment, he turned to Liu Muyang and said, "Let’s go, command outside. Signalman, grab another radio and come with me."
The commander swiftly made his way outside, followed by a group of officers, and then they quickly walked up a nearby hill.
The terrain of Guisui Institution No.1 was uneven to begin with, flanked by hills on both sides. Although not the main peak of Daqing Mountain, the height and steepness provided good shelter.
Having lost the battlefield monitoring system, they sought a higher vantage point for a better view.
Gao Yuan was somewhat nervous because he knew the real test hadn’t yet come, as the Serpent People had not yet dropped Armored Beasts into the camp.
If the Serpent People’s attack methods remained unchanged, they would air-drop Armored Beasts directly into the shelter’s camp after the zombies had arrived, coordinating an inside-outside attack for central penetration.
