The artillery began to unleash its ferocity, as infantry braved the rain and charged toward the government building under the cover of the artillery.
Seeing hope, the morale of the defending army inside the building surged anew.
They too fired back furiously from the windows and gaps blasted open in the building, at the attacking enemy forces.
But it wasn't enough to stop the enemies' entry.
The cover of artillery fire still pinned down the defenders within the building.
However, the next moment, a howling sound overshadowed the noise of the rain.
Then, a violent explosion occurred about ten kilometers away.
Arno crawled to the window and looked in the direction from where the sound came.
That was the artillery position of the Planetary Defense Force, which now, having been subjected to continuous missile strikes and machine gun bombardment, had turned into a sea of fire.
