when the iron sentinel trembled under the sudden force, shi tian had to grip onto something for support.

he quickly realized that this tremor wasn't a natural occurrence; something was happening outside the massive machine.

curiosity piqued, shi tian rapidly closed the status screen and brought up the exterior cameras.

what he saw on the screens shocked him.

outside, the ground quivered as a colossal shadow fell upon the battlefield. it was a monstrous creature, unlike any he had encountered before. towering over the battlefield, it had multiple tentacle-like appendages and a massive, gaping maw filled with row upon row of sharp teeth.

"the gilaso variants... they've evolved," shi tian muttered to himself, recognizing the monstrous entity.

although the monstrous entity looked different from the gilaso variants he had seen, there were quite a lot of similarities.

with such a new development, shi tian could not afford to wait patiently for the analysis to be done.

it might just be a single evolved gilaso variant, but it was already proving to be a difficulty to deal with. on the screen, it was already displaying theobold going into action, confronting the evolved gilaso variant. n.-0velb1n

while shi tian was focused on the screen, mary entered the iron sentinel.

"nathan, move aside for a bit." mary quickly instructed, taking over the control panel. she then pressed quite a bit of buttons and her hands were extremely swift.

a few seconds later, mary finally breathed a sigh of relief. without even caring about shi tian's presence, mary turned on a sound enhancer function.

"commander theobold, the gilaso variant monster wave remained still and had no intention of rushing forward. it seemed that it was just this one evolved gilaso variant that had decided to attack us." mary spoke through the sound enhancer, informing theobold, who was outside confronting the evolved gilaso variant.

theobold nodded his head, his aura slowly increasing.

at first, he was worried that overusing his strength might hinder him afterward if the gilaso variant monster wave decided to go on a rampage. hence, he was conserving his strength, but with mary's swift surveillance, theobold was now reassured to go all out to kill the evolved gilaso variant before it could do any significant damage in their camp.

"soldiers, assist me but make sure that only a few of you come. the rest of the soldiers are to ensure vanessa's safety." theobold kicked the evolved gilaso variant back, prompting it to retreat a few steps as he made a string of commands.

the soldiers acknowledged theobold's orders, and a select few joined him in confronting the evolved gilaso variant. they approached cautiously, readying their weapons and forming a defensive line.

the colossal creature seemed to sense the threat and unleashed a deafening roar, shaking the very ground beneath it. its multiple tentacles lashed out like whips, striking the ground and causing massive shockwaves.

as the battle unfolded on the exterior cameras, shi tian couldn't help but feel a sense of dread. the evolved gilaso variant was an entirely different level of danger compared to what they had faced before.

meanwhile, mary continued to monitor the situation and relay information to theobold and the soldiers, guiding their tactics and movements. her expertise in strategy was proving invaluable in this dire situation.

"nathan, go to the right side and turn on the weaponize function." mary was multi-tasking when she instructed shi tian. she pointed at the exact location so that he wouldn't be mistaken.

without hesitation, shi tian followed her instruction and turned on the weaponize function. with the function turned on, the iron sentinel exterior started to change.

a large mounted turret was now placed on top of the iron sentinel, and shi tian was able to control the mounted turret through a new set of controls that had appeared.

"you know how to control it, right?" mary asked, her eyes remained focused on the battle. her attention was barely split, given that she needed to constantly check if there were any unexpected variables.

"yeah, i got it!" shi tian swiftly responded. the control was simple and straightforward, so if he still struggled to understand it, then he might as well just go home and stop being a burden.

as shi tian took control of the mounted turret, he was extremely focused on the colossal creature. this was a critical moment, and he needed to make every shot count.

theobold and his team were engaged in a fierce battle with the evolved gilaso variant.

mary continued to provide instructions to the soldiers, coordinating their efforts to keep the monster at bay. the ground shook as the creature's tentacles struck the earth, sending shockwaves rippling through the battlefield.

shi tian aimed the turret at the massive creature, his fingers poised over the trigger. he watched as theobold and the soldiers dodged the creature's attacks, looking for the perfect moment to strike.

suddenly, theobold shouted a command, and the soldiers launched a coordinated attack on the gilaso variant's tentacles. they fired a barrage of projectiles, severing several of the appendages and causing the creature to roar in agony.

this was the opening shi tian had been waiting for.

he squeezed the trigger, and the mounted turret unleashed a torrent of energy blasts. the concentrated firepower struck the evolved gilaso variant's exposed flesh, causing it to recoil in pain.

sensing that the evolved gilaso variant was using its tentacles to block the energy blast to protect its head, shi tian subtly understood something.

'so the head is the weakness huh,' shi tian thought.

he adjusted his aim and continued to unleash a relentless stream of energy blasts at the creature's head. with each hit, the creature's roars grew more pained, and it thrashed about in a futile attempt to defend itself.

theobold and the soldiers took advantage of the distraction, pressing their attack on the wounded monster. they struck with precision, targeting its vulnerable spots.

it was a grueling battle, but with shi tian providing crucial firepower from the mounted turret, they slowly gained the upper hand. the evolved gilaso variant weakened, its movements growing sluggish.
