The sky above the northern fortress quickly turned into a storm of chaos. Swarms of Aegis units, shining with deadly energy, filled the air. The sun disappeared behind them, casting a dark shadow over the entire battlefield.
"They're everywhere! Shoot them down!" the young general shouted.
He ducked as a plasma shot sizzled past his head, burning the air with a searing hiss. "Activate the land-to-air defense systems now! I repeat, the use of all heavy weaponry is approved! Take them out!"
All around the fortress, giant turrets began to rise from behind walls and towers. Missile pods clicked into place, railguns hummed with building energy, and anti-air laser cannons rotated toward the skies.
Streams of green and red lights shot upward, trying to punch holes through the swarm of Aegis units. Explosions lit the sky like deadly fireworks, but still, the enemy kept coming.
Meanwhile, on the Blood Clan's homeworld, the battle had reached a terrifying new level.
