The assault against the Emperor Tree started off a lot better than any of the Larkinsons expected.
They already figured that the Promethea would be a lot more effective when fighting against the Emperor Tree than any other high-end machine, but this was something else!
The Promethea dominated the battle right now. The expert rifleman mech easily outpaced the purple wooden mechs while relying on her Ignitron rifle to set one purple wooden mech aflame after another.
None of the elite constructs were able to offer any effective resistance!
No matter how much wood energy the Emperor Tree transferred to its constructs by remote, it all turned into additional fuel to feed hungry flames.
If the Promethea's shots only spread ordinary flames, then the Emperor Tree should have been able to prevent its elite constructs from burning down.
