Chapitre 2823: Outclassed

Since the aggressive troop of ultralifers had already covered a lot of ground, Ves' honor guard didn't have much time to prepare for battle.

Nitaa immediately signalled them to exit the mech hall and meet the approaching hostiles in a more favorable location.

"Lucky, come with us as well. We need your claws."

"Meow!"

This time, Lucky was much less reluctant to obey orders. He happily jumped on top of Nitaa's thick helmet and perched on it as if he was sitting on a throne!

One honor guard remained behind as an insurance. As powerful as the Odineye turned out to be, Nitaa didn't trust it to detect every possible threat. If some stealthed infiltrator managed to avoid its gaze, Ves might easily get attacked when he thought he was safe!

For this reason, the remaining honor guard hovered very close to Ves. Even though he felt this was a bit excessive, the alternatives were worse.
