An Rhineman Emirate Escort Ship came under attack from several missiles.
"Captain, we're under attack."
"Where did the attack come from?"
"From a blind spot in the search radar!"
"Damn it, deploy fighter squads immediately and send out a distress signal!"
"The Rhineman Emirate's fighters are just like its Escort Ships—both are relics from fifty years ago. It looks like this country hasn't upgraded its defense weapons since its founding. I thought ours were old enough, but theirs are even older," the pilot of a Shadow MS grumbled.
The pilot of a Black Demon Fighter said, "Isn't that better? It'll make this fight easier for us."
The Rhineman Emirate had six M1 Fighters. The M1 Fighters had no laser cannons, only relatively outdated missiles.
Not only did the enemy MS easily evade the missiles they fired, they could even shoot them down with ease.
In less than a minute, all six M1 Fighters were wiped out.
One Shadow MS charged straight toward the target Escort Ship's bow and destroyed it with a rocket launcher shot, while the other allied fighters and MS fired directed-energy weapons.
Having lost its bow, the Escort Ship instantly became a wreck riddled with holes.
After completing their mission, the mixed squad departed at once.
By the time the Rhineman Emirate's other Escort Ships arrived, their fellow vessel had already been destroyed. Fortunately, there were survivors aboard the destroyed Escort Ship.
However, the survivors were severely injured and unconscious, making it impossible to obtain any intelligence from them.
After receiving the shared intelligence, Colonel Shrek learned that two Escort Ships had been attacked. He did not rush to rescue them immediately, knowing that even if he arrived at the scene, the targets would already be long gone.
Colonel Shrek ordered every warship to activate
