Day 253 - 9:19 AM - Moutainous Crater, Municipality of Viga, Province of Catanduanes
Everyone on the northwestern peaks watched their vision darken. It was not because the weather was changing for the worse. The reason was the swarm of [Mechids] that finally returned to the crater. They could see hundreds of [Mechids] swarming from the outer perimeter of the Mountainous Crater, not to mention the flying ones. All these [Mechids] might be the inferiorly built ones, but their numbers were not something to joke about.
The warriors already had a hard time fighting a portion of these [Mechids]. Facing this large number of enemies, while possible to win, would definitely cause a large number of casualties on their side.
And having casualties more than allowed was not something they wanted. That was why they chose a defensive battle in these mountainous peaks than an offensive one in the first place.
