On the walls of Tark-III, the battle had deteriorated to its worst point. The mortal defenders faced three completely different, devastating threats at once.
In the distance, the several swarm-saint Titans, like moving mountain ranges, had not stopped.
Light flickered within the enormous bio-energy reaction chambers on their backs. The grotesque, gigantic Bio-Pulse Cannons in their hands began charging again, eerie green energy surging and gathering through intricate biological conduits with a heart-stopping hum.
Their yellow-green eyes coldly locked onto other critical points along the walls.
Boom!!! Boom!!!
Devastating green Pulse Beams tore through the air again and slammed into the wall's shields.
The shields flickered violently, their energy readings plummeting. Every hit shook an entire stretch of wall, and the shock waves from the explosions even hurled soldiers standing near the battlements into the air.
Scattering arcs of bio-energy struck the surroundings with sharp crackles.
The wall's own heavy weapons arrays immediately returned fire.
Focused plasma beams and gigantic Railguns roared. Blazing azure rays and solid shells streaked across the sky, smashing into the swarm-saint Titans' thick bio-armor and blasting enormous blossoms of flesh from their bodies. Green, corrosive blood poured down like waterfalls.
The swarm-saint Titans' armor was certainly thick, but it proved equally fragile before these ship-grade defensive turrets.
The ugly Bio-Titans were easily shattered, reduced to countless flying chunks of flesh.
