He Kai calmly watched his "comrades" get blown apart one after another. Under concentrated fire, so-called skill was completely useless.
Even mechs with astonishing defensive power would still be blasted to pieces.
But by the time he entered the dangerous zone, the firepower had already thinned considerably, while nearly half the knights ahead had been lost.
