“Did you see that?” Andrew breathed as his PPCs flew over the Behemoth’s massive head. “it’s Gauss Rifle just exploded and barely scratched the armor!”
“You’re taking the wrong lesson from that,” Schultz’s accent slipped for a few moments. He strode forward confidently, the six massive heat radiators on the Zeus’s back spreading like wings as the `Mech struggled to compensate for the heat it was supposedly generating. A thin layer of snow had already built up on the `Mech’s barrel-shaped shoulders, and Schultz’s unhurried movements did nothing to shake it free.
“The loss of a Gauss Rifle doesn’t prove that Behemoth is invincible,” Schultz continued as he skewered the distant `Mech with his lasers. “It proves that old ghost is vulnerable!”
