Moving with speed that belied his heavy armor, the other Mage-Knight was suddenly in front of his winded commander; taking the plasma shot head on by blocking it with his free hand, the proceeding explosion seemingly annihilating him... However, as the smoke cleared; the Knight smirks confidently at MC as all the damage he has to show for such an attack being a lightly scorched palm.

However, Roy's avalanche attack and the various blaster bolts, missiles, grenades and bullets from the rest of the enemy force causes him to falter somewhat, only for the two mages behind him to pick up the slack and block the attack for their overly eager comrade along with everyone else within 50 meters with a shimmering magical barrier that hardly budged from the barrage of earth, glass and steel.

At the moment the barrier went down, the dark paladins struck back with an all-out assault, the puppet-wizard, his magical coat and hat protecting him from the very worst of the Resistance's firepower fearlessly sends forth snaking tendrils of living fire from his magical staff that sailed over and around the cover erected by the Alchemist lieutenant, seeking flesh and steel to consume in their fiery grasp as the heavy knight charged towards the fortification like a speeding truck, sword held aloft, bloody vengeance upon his lips and seeking to take the head of Roy Mustang as a trophy as bullets and blaster bolts impacted upon his armor to worryingly little effect while the Angelic trio darts towards the skies; gracefully weaving and swerving around the fire directed at them before raining down holy judgement upon those they wholeheartedly believed were the minions of evil.

"HEAVEN'S KNUCKLE!!!"

"EXCALIBURST!!!"

The two rod-wielding angels unleash lancing beams of heavenly light that was anything but at the invaders, their heat and intensity more than strong enough to vaporize flesh, slag steel and slice through ranks of men with contemptuous ease; while the knightly angel launches barrages of shining waves of purifying energy from his wrist-mounted Holy Blade aimed at maiming and murdering the officers and squad leaders, hoping to sow confusion and panic among the Resistance's ranks, all that while they continued to dodge their enemies' frantic attempts at neutralizing them. 

Seeing an enemy Mech join the infantry firefight by cutting down a large number of friendly forces in a furious volley of light and fire, the Angelic swordsman decided to put his mettle to the test against the machine and dived towards it, protecting his head and chest with his shield as he rolled and weaved in an unpredictable manner to confuse and confound the pilot and the soldier standing beside it before striking out with a single slash of his Holy Blade, to the angel's frustration however, the pilot had dodged at the last moment; though that sizable gash upon its shoulder would mean that the pilot would do well to pay attention to the swordsman...

Meanwhile the Flame Knight looks around for MC, cursing himself for letting such a dangerous enemy escape his sight all while he protects his subordinate mages beside him by deflecting enemy fire aimed at them with his sword, body and magical barriers all while cutting down and/or incinerating any who dared approach. His two charges weren't sitting idly by however and were helping by being a massive nuisance to the invaders by destabilizing the ground they stand on and blowing the dust and smoke caused by the fighting into the resistance's side of the field.

Literally 5 seconds after the power died out inside the base, the entire massive structure suddenly shook violently! Did that mean that something else was destroyed other than the main generators?! Did Wally use too much explosives?! Judging from the expressions of fear and worry from the soldiers that had been shooting at him, their fear directed not at Hazama but at the violent tremor; it was probably something that could be very good or very bad for the Resistance...
