Day 341 - 1:21 PM - Technical Laboratory, Ariake, Reclaimed City, Ruins of Tokyo
The deadlock between the forces of the Reclaimed City and the eight-headed serpent continued for several minutes of struggle. Unfortunately, while the intention of the Defense Forces was to defeat the enemy and survive this deadly situation, all they could do was delay the enemy's advance. And worse, for every passing second in this fight, their chance of survival was getting lower.
Missiles, cannons, explosives, and bullets, every weapon the Defense Forces had in hand were finite in number. In every passing second, the battle was consuming hundreds of such. Once the Defense Forces ran out of weapons to combat the enemies, the end of the Reclaimed City and its people would inevitably come.
But what could the Defense forces do? They were using everything they had. It was not their fault that their weapons were ineffective against the current enemy.
