Richard's directive was immediately relayed to all units, resulting in a noticeable shift in the ground force's tactics. The LAV-25s and other armored vehicles began to scatter, moving in unpredictable patterns to avoid becoming the next target for the Hydra.
"Roger that, Eagle-Actual. Spooky-1 is on it," the AC-130 pilot confirmed. The aircraft adjusted its position, aiming its formidable weapons at the colossal creature.
The aircraft, armed with AGM-114 Hellfire missiles on its pylons, locked onto the massive creature.
"Eagle-Actual, Spooky-1 has a lock," the pilot radioed in.
"Fire when ready," Richard ordered.
With a whirr and a hiss, a Hellfire missile was launched from the AC-130. The missile's trajectory was straight and true, heading directly for the Hydra. Upon impact, a fiery explosion enveloped a portion of the creature, causing it to thrash violently, its shrieks echoing throughout the city ruins.
