780 Pushback

The boom of a supersonic round overloaded the audio sensors of Cleansing Light an instant before the ground shook, and the nearby trees began to sway and topple. 

[Oops.] Nico muttered, forgetting that she had the inter Mecha mic set to voice activation. 

[What the Feth was that?] Max asked since it was clearly her fault. 

[I deactivated the Warp Field to use the big guns on the surface, but I forgot that they were still impulse drive equipped, and I might have hit a Command Walker with fifty kilos of steel at Mach 70.] 

No wonder she caused an earthquake. 

It looked like she had stopped the enemy's advance, though. They were just as clueless as anyone else as to what Nico had done, and the round had passed through multiple War Walkers before hitting the ground and throwing their entire Battalion to the ground.
