'Granary' Saint Mary Base.
Sweet stood before the giant screen. On it, convoy after convoy was leaving the base.
The insect swarm was running rampant. Several human settlements and bases along the coast had already fallen, and those bugs were extremely cunning, always picking on the weak.
Whenever they encountered Mecha interception, some of them would split off to engage the Mecha while the rest broke into smaller groups, crossed the interception line, and regrouped afterward.
Under this tactic, Freedom Wings had suffered heavy losses in just a few days. Countless civilians had become food in the insects' stomachs, and the casualties among the population were severe.
Freedom Wings had now adjusted its strategy, doing everything possible to move resources scattered across various locations to Freedom City. At the same time, they would build an iron defense line there, preparing for a protracted war against the insect swarm.
Saint Mary Base was naturally among those being evacuated.
Just then, the alarm suddenly sounded.
Sweet came to his senses and hurriedly asked, "What's happening?"
"Reporting, General! Satellites have detected a rapidly moving object. According to the computer's analysis, it will arrive near our position in one minute!"
The news made Sweet's expression change. He then said in a deep voice, "Notify all units. Prepare for battle!"
He headed straight for the Mecha Docking Bay himself. After Sweet activated Justice Apostle, an image appeared on the light screen.
In the image, a black speck appeared in the distant sky.
The black speck rapidly approached and, in the blink of an eye, had arrived nearby.
The image showed a Giantess covered from head to toe in short black fur, with wings growing from her back. She seemed to be observing the convoy on the ground.
"What is that..."
"Open fire at once!"
