++Requesting technical support from the Advanced Technology Consortium... deploying extraterrestrial weapons...++ ++Request approved. Level 2 extraterrestrial firepower strike will be ready in one second.++
The Advanced Technology Consortium? Hadn't that organization been wiped out before the War in Heaven?
Trazyn was utterly astonished, but he did not dwell on his shock. He quickly hid behind Orikan, hunching down without exposing even a fraction of himself.
Seeing their strange behavior, Perturabo hurriedly raised Lin Fan before him again. A single annihilation particle landed in Lin Fan's eye.
