Few opponents managed to stay strong when confronted by the Larkinson Clan's renowned expert mechs.
Even if the Bolvos Rage was a high-tier expert mech, its design and material composition were not that exaggerated.
The upcoming Mars Project was much more extravagant! Its design budget was a lot higher, so much so that the Cross Clan had to forgo a lot of essential investments in order to fund the acquisition of all of the medium and high-grade exotics to realize Professor Benedict's ambitious vision.
While the knowledgeable people in the expeditionary fleet would not be surprised if the completed Mars Project was able to stomp all three Larkinson expert mechs by this time, the older and aging Bolvos Rage should have struggled a lot more.
The reality was different, though!
