Before they could think too much, the Star Beasts pounced fiercely at everyone.
Densely packed, there were hundreds, indeed a small beast tide.
The team led by Mogian first froze for a moment, and by the time they visually confirmed the Star Beasts pouncing, it was too late for them to mount their mechas.
Suddenly, a viciously-breathing Star Beast bit towards the head of a woman who had just stood up on the outermost part.
There was no doubt that being bitten on the head meant certain death, the kind that couldn't be saved.
Her teammates were beside her, unable to battle the Star Beast without their mechas, and could only watch helplessly as the Star Beast approached.
They even instinctively took a few steps back.
Everyone thought the woman was doomed, and some spectators couldn't help but cover their eyes, not wanting to witness this bloody scene.
Then, an unexpected change occurred.
A figure landed beside the woman, a long spear swinging out from her hand.
