Boom!
Just then, at Sky Fortress Two, a dark-red beam of energy suddenly pierced across the battlefield, its destructive force so oppressive that Reilo could feel it keenly. The beam was illuminated by the destructive radiance of the fission explosion from the Radiation Weapon aboard Sky Fortress One, at the distant center of the battlefield, and poured down across the sky.
The immense pressure instantly warped the weaker creatures around it into the energy.
At the fortress's firing port, the beam of destruction was only a dozen or so centimeters in diameter.
But after crossing more than ten kilometers of battlefield, it had become a terrifying shock wave nearly ten meters across, vaporizing everything in its path as if erasing it from existence.

Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh, whoosh, whoosh.
Like Reilo, the relatively powerful creatures scattered, scrambling to escape the area swept by the beam's crushing pressure.
