Saharan Africa In the middle of the desert, the Metal Armors were beginning to be destroyed by Imperial drones and each of them was being destroyed.

"Alpha group needs support!!!!!!"

Only thirty of sixty Metal Armors remained, while the Imperial drones were least damaged.

The beta group, which included Paolo, Irina, and Jean, was retreating and took refuge in the sand dunes where they hid.

"What the hell were they?"

"Control center did not tell us anything about these things at all."

Irina was shaking and breathing irregularly. Paulo came out of fighting mode and turned to Irina. 

"Something happened, Miss Orlov?"

"Something happened, don't you see the hell we are in?"

Irina suddenly went crazy and started yelling at Paolo. When he saw situation, he thought to himself that it is better not to speak and remain silent.

After a while, Irina calmed down and returned to normal.

"Sorry Paolo, I didn't mean it."

"I know everyone is in a difficult situation right now."

She was trying to comfort him when control center started giving the new order.

"All the remaining forces of beta group are ordered to headquarters of al-Qabal, which is about a hundred kilometers from here. So move at night so that the enemy cannot detect you."

They wait until it gets dark.

"Sir, an unexpected thing happened and that is the cooperation of Fang Empire with Al-Hilal terrorist group."

"What happened to the groups now?"

" Alpha group has been destroyed, but beta group is still there."

"They are our only hope, Commander."

"Yes, sir, I will make sure they do their job properly."
