The situation changed abruptly the next day. Doctor Jutland had finally made his move. The mercenaries in the field started coming back with damaged and half-broken mechs. They moaned about getting overwhelmed by large hordes of hexapods.
"More than a dozen of the beasts popped out of nowhere! They destroyed Jimmy's mech in an instant! If he hadn't ejected in time, he would have ended up in their bellies!"
"I looked over the hill and saw six of the hexapods following this giant monstrosity. It's like a mech, but not! I don't know how to describe that crazy thing! Here, my mech recorded the whole thing. Do you see that weirdo sitting atop its head? He's not even wearing a hazard suit!"
