Meanwhile, on the flanks, Lilla and Carlos found themselves under heavy assault. The enemy forces, having detected the deaths of their Tier 4 warriors through their power armor's vital sign monitors, had launched a full-scale attack.
The humans and their robotic allies were outnumbered, but they held their ground with unwavering determination.
The Tyrant units, though not as individually powerful as the Tier 3 Advanced Cyborgs of the enemy, proved to be a formidable force. Their sheer numbers and relentless coordination allowed them to support the Paladins and Lilla in repelling the assault.
Carlos on his flank faced a similar onslaught but managed to hold the line with the help of the Aegis units and the Maulers.
For now, phase three of the plan was proceeding smoothly. The defensive perimeter held, and the transport ships began their descent toward the coordinates, marking the start of phase four: the search for the advanced warp device.
