As the Golden Legion started to move out, the lesser energy beings that were from their patron all began to gather and head toward the main group. They lacked radios or any other form of communication equipment, so the message was slow in passing between them, but Max saw an opportunity in that.
If he moved the Mecha force along that line where the message was passing and shouted it occasionally through the loudspeakers, he could get them all moving in the right direction and leave only the actual enemies in their way.
It would cut the number of targets that they had to fight nearly in half, and it would allow the Golden Legion's minimal scouting force to deal with larger threats, while the main force was engaged in the city.
