「Target the Gigantic Machina!! Fire!!」
Under Captain Wittmann’s motivated coe froh Explosive Anti-Tank round exits the44 caliber 120mm cannon
And like a firing line, all the other M1A2 tanks of the 1st Ar their shells towards the Gigantic Machina
Shock-waves and flashes of light ensue as dozens of High Explosive Anti-Tank rounds are released, like a hound dog hoantic Machina ―― but before they even reached their intended target, they explode collectively, as the Gigantic Mechanical Suit erected a e
Hidden behind heavy santic Machina appears onceits advance
「Negative contact, the target is still active!! No effect!!」
「shi+t, is it hopeless!?」
Receiving the report froantic Machina, wrinkling his brow as their repetitious barrage caused no dae
Battling the Flying Machina in the skies, F-22 Raptors and F-2 Support Fighters repeatedly clash as ground forces continue to boin to turn around, Captain Witt into the receiver
「Huh!? HQ this is Ha to base!! What the hell is going on, over!?!」
『Hammerhead 1 this HQ, all aircraft are black on a the airspace, over』
「Well then send some more units for support, over!!」
『Negative Hammerhead 1, reinforcements are unavailable at this time, over』
「Whiskey, Tango, Foxtrot, HQ!? How is that even possible, there are close to 100 aircraft back at base, including our reserve units!!」

Outnu Machina, Parabelluht, but after having run out of a an opportunity for I vehicles on the Jar plains below
「All units, load high explosiveMachina off our 3 o’clock!!」
Crossing paths byMachina descend towards the surface to strike the 1st Armor BattalionThe sound of fifty M1A2 Tanks main cannons rotate in unison
But there still was a technical proble roughly between 100 to 200 kilo Machina cae Captain Wittman orders all units to fire
「FIRE!!」
Roaring like a gale 50 high explosive h the air towards the onco, creating an explosive net of anti-aircraft fire
And fro Machina descend in a fiery ball of fla on to the surface below
「Let, let’s get out of here!!」
「「「「Ye-, yes Commander!!」」」」
Reacting to the unexpected surprise attack by their “prey” that crawled on land, the astonished I Machina orders his ical device located within their cockpits
But theMachina tried to withdraw, following the 1st Armor Battalions salvo, 8 more machines were shot down by a second volley, this time from the 2nd Armor Battalion

Diving down fro on top one of the tanks, preventing the other tanks fro at it directly
「Ah shi+t!! This is fucking bad!!」
And just by chance, the target of the Ieant Barkun turret, freezing at the sight of the flying Machina on top of them
「I knew it!! This is their weakness――」
Gloating to hi his suspicions, approaching from above he would be able to reach his enemy unscathed
Aiic cannon, centered on the Abrams armored turret, the Imperial Pilot was just about to fire, when his cockpit abruptly exploded
「Augh, that hurts! What the hell was that!?」
Struck by reeant Barkh, all it did was strike his hel outside the Abrams tank

「Does it seem like we’re okay?」
『Not really, but don’t worry about itLook up in the sky』

Within Caence reports coence analysts to be scrutinizedOn the big screen monitor, video of the battles on the Jar Plains streah from camera’s mounted on tracked vehicles
「……Oh Master…… It was only just this tiot injured…
This Eht…that’s right…I’ll burn all those bastards in a nuclear inferno…
…But for starters we’ll have to destroy that unsightly puppet」
Since Kazuya suffered various injuries due to Adele, Nelson and the Iive the Eeance
「Don’t, don’t do it, Madam Vice-President!!」
Muhts under her breath
「……Kill ……Exterminate ……They all must die…… the women and children don’t matter…… annihilate them

General Murray voiced words of caution, as Chitose es
「……Did you say so? General Murray?」
―― Slowly turns head, Pitch Black Glare
「Hiieee!! Ah No, uh that, that’s! We can’t use nuclear weapons inside our allies kingdom…

「……Then I’ll give the order to withdraw」
Casting aside General Murray’s analysis and concerns with a feords, Chitose stubbornly continuesher goal to use nuclear weapons
「But, but……」
General Murray was unable say a word, after catching sight of the sharp glint within Chitose’s eyesAware that he was unable to prevent Chitose fro Parabellum’s nuclear arsenal, General Murray felt it was unavoidable
Behind the two, the entrance to the rooh
Realizing that the room’s officers had looked back, Chitose and General Murray turned their heads, their eyes ith surprise
「M,master!? What, why are you here!? Your injuries, are you okay!?」
「K, Kazuya!?」
「「「「MrPresident!?」」」」
Entering the Couards was Kazuya, beside hie staff stood Celicia and arriving all the way from Parabellum’s Mainland was Ibuki
「I’ me up to speed, what’s our current situation?」
Up until now, Kazuya who had just been in surgery quickly asks Chitose for Parabellum’s status report
「No, this is not fine!! Master!! You body isn’t――」
「It’s been healed, thanks to Celicia and our ic」
Towards Chitose’s worries, Kazuya interrupted her by stating just the facts
「… …Celicia? ――What!? Why is that woman in here!? 」
Listening to Kazuya’s reply, Chitose finally becolare towards her direction
「I was the one who brought her hereJust in case there was another eency」
「What was that? Ibuki are you serious… … That woman, no matter how much loyalty she shows on the surface, she’s still a prisoner of war!! That woman is――」
「Yes, I knowBut if you take into account Celicia’s healing ability, there’s no reason not to use itShe has already healed Master’s body」
「Ugh… … I still wouldn’t trust her!! There is no guarantee that she wouldn’t harm Master!!」
「… … Now ‘that’, is just so, for you to assume that I would cause Kazuya any hariance to any of you, because I am already Kazuya’s personal slave」
