With his kick having landed with terrifying force, Sento used the mechanical monster's leg as a springboard to right himself as he fell back to the ground. The cracked age-old asphalt beneath his feet left a crater as he rose back up and casually dusted himself off before looking at what damage he had incidentally caused by sending the thing careening off with Hibiki. Amidst the rubble, however, that same mechanical beast seemed unperturbed by their two-pronged attack.

If anything, it seemed as if that their attack had only barely scratched it up. Given how it now seemed to be preparing a counterattack, any further analysis would probably have to wait. 

The ominously charging beam originating from where the machine's 'head' [i]should[/i] have been was enough of an indicator to get out of the way, but the way that his co-combatant seemed to be charging in meant that they didn't exactly share the same plan.

"What sort of bullheaded...? Agh, forget it! She's probably the same type of fighter as those two!" Sento complained before charging back into the fray after her. With leap after leap, the spring on his crimson leg pushed him forward again as he began to zigzag after Hibiki. The end goal was simple enough: pull attention away from her if he could by being a visual nuisance or, failing that, get to the machine's 'neck' and launch another kick or ten to try and break the joints and metalwork keeping it attached.

While the impact of the first tile had initially done little more than confuse and agitate the brute as it turned towards wherever it had come from, the second and third promptly exploding in it's face and carving out perfectly spherical holes from it's neck and forehead and leaving the now-lobotomized corpse to crumple to the ground. It's companion, having seen such a sudden execution, is given but a second to alarm the rest of the compound that it is under attack. 

The signal is sent, but it's life is forfeit; another attack from the Master Diviner leaves it a headless corpse, sickly blood spilling out into the metal floor nearby.

With the patrol dispatched but the enemy now alerted to the presence of an enemy, the entrance that the pair of aliens were guarding is left locked—sealed by machinery that could may as well be paper to the pair.

After blowing the sliding door open one way or another, both Fu Xuan and Qingque would find themselves in a utilitarian room of metal and plexiglass, with a red symbol marking no small number of the few holograms and panels lining the area. Open doorways nearby would indicate that no lockdown procedures had yet begun, but...

"Be careful, you two. The aliens are aware that you've entered the building. They're taking up positions nearby to box you in. I think they'll to open fire once you make a move," Miku's voice would state from the communicators on the pair. "The equipment you're looking for is probably a bit further in. I don't know if they know that what you're here for, but it isn't out of the question."
