"Anyway, I have already taken down three Empire mechas today. Even if I die, it's worth it."
The captain knew very well that the distance between them and the Empire mechas was getting shorter and shorter. The Federation mecha squad that was supposed to support them would soon receive orders to delay their support.
This meant that without reinforcements, they would definitely be caught by the Empire mechas.
"Everyone, finalize your last words." The captain ordered, "You have one minute, then consolidate and send them out using the Hive Signal Flare."
"Yes!"
The team's communication channel went silent, but it wasn't quiet around them.
Charging in formation with their mechas, the dust storm lifted by the charge kept pelting their mechas, and the constantly pursuing Empire mechas continued their attacks with firepower.
Their mecha's stealth coating was damaged by these attacks, making them visible on the onboard radar of the Empire mechas.
Retreat was not an option.
