Every Larkinson expert pilot exited their cockpits and left the hangar bay with bitter expressions.
Each of them were accustomed to pulling out miracles on the battlefield. It was a significant letdown to know that they could do nothing at all to suppress or repel Patriarch Reginald Cross and the Mars in a serious battle.
Sure, the Larkinsons may have withheld a few tricks such as battle formations, but it was doubtful that those solutions could have overcome the absolute gap in power as well.
The Mars was for all intents and purposes an ace mech-level combat asset as far as everyone was concerned.
Though the expert mech technically did not contain the full set of components that corresponded to ace mechs, its extraordinarily powerful pilot was more than strong enough to close the gap!
As such, the Cross Clan had gained an absolute advantage over the Larkinson Clan in terms of martial strength.
