Capítulo 408: Assault on Austin-First Half

"This can't continue!" General Moore exclaimed, slamming his fist on the desk in anger and startling everyone in the room. He then turned to one of his advisors, specifically Dr. Tanner from Vance Armory Corporation. "Didn't your team claim that those exoskeleton units could combat Astral Tech power armor? And yet, look at this!"

General Moore pointed toward the screen displaying footage from the latest battlefield, specifically the fort near the Texas border.

In the footage, the initial shot came from the US side, or more precisely, from the Astral Technology Corporation's side. The soldier on the screen quickly took cover as soon as their comrades were hit. Then, a barrage of missile artillery rained down on the defensive line.

The booming sound of the barrage made the battlefield chaotic, but the soldiers tried to maintain their composure. The trenches provided some safety as long as they stayed low and avoided exposing themselves.
