with that in mind they set off for xerxes, the walker rolling along fairly quickly

• *the quiet scenery was finally disrupted by the sound of mortar fire.*
• Get a bearing on that kratek, no need to get mortared.
• **Dives back into the multiped’s engineroom hatch, sealing the door behind him. Reaching a seat and console, he scans hurriedly down a monitor’s list, finding an option titled “AMS(Anti-Missile System) screen-defense”. Switching the system on, small lasers and light-machineguns mounted at the uppermost-kneejoint of each walker-leg activate, then begin shooting the incoming mortar-shells; the sky soon becomes peppered with dark erupting clouds of intercepted explosives, conveniently making a dotted-trail in the air that eventually points to the artillery’s origin-point.**
• *it was soon relatively clear that whoever was shelling them was not from xerxes… way too inaccurate, probably raiders that found a big gun and got big heads over it.*
• after triangulating it a missle went up, arcing down directly into the mortar pit, igniting their ammo
• *the ensuing fireworks display probably caught the attention of the city’s own defenders too.*
• sada made several quick radio calls into xerxes to alert them of the situation
• *just in time, the call went through and was apparently relayed to the approaching guards as they changed course, no longer gunning for the walker.*
• once passed the guards they were given a burst of the horn as a greeting
• **As the explosions die down and cease, he leaves the AMS screen-defense’s light machineguns online, but partitions the lasers to a semi-controlled gunner mode; each scanning their own separate angles in a “panopticon”-style surveillance view around the multiped’s surroundings, ready to chime an alert if they spot any person-sized targets.****Slowly, Kratek then takes a look around through a half-opened topside hatch, looking at where the munition cook-off occurred, and it’s resulting mushroom cloud, then watches the passing landscape for any more ambushes hidden in waiting.**
