Crystal City, the largest habitable are inside the ancient lake that once dominated the Martian landscape. This city has drawn gun runners, synth striders, gamblers and quartz miners from all corners of our solar system. Back in 2036 when the Berner-Stubb corporation did their first test drillings, they found out that the old lake bottom was made of quartz. One can only imagine how this lake once shined like a planetary diamond.

Falck signals the Wolf Pack that the wall has been breached and the assault of Crystal City can begin. Falck moves in to the city to perform a quick scan of the nearby district. “Minimal opposition detected. Foot mobile 30, APC’s, but no Militia Robot Core. Where are they?” Falck reports.

“Citizens of Crystal city. Our Neo Helsinki Robot Core units have breached the walls and will destroy any opposition they encounter. Your lives are insignificant if you oppose our Neo Helsinki Robot Core Unit.” Ares repeats the message.

After defeating the militia Robot Core units.
“Wulf pack, execute order 420”Krueger issues the order with a grin in his face.
Without a warning a shot from Ravens sniper rifle is heard and it makes a direct impact to STRIDERS left foot.
“Left foot damaged, mobility reduced by 50%. Suggesting

“Danger assessment ready, emergency eject protocol initiated. Enable stealth field to Driver. Upload backup to Driver temporal soul prism.” Dire Wulf follows the prime directives that are in the core of its existence, protect the Driver. Major Falck is ejected with a stealth field that enables the Driver to escape the Robot Core without the enemy noticing it. Falck activates the jump packs on his backpack to make a safe landing on top of a nearby building. From the roof he sees Dire Wulf, badly damaged and with the Wulf Pack closing in for the kill.
