The Apex Predators are a mercenary organization. Their leader is Kuben Blisk, and they are composed of a group of elite Pilot mercenaries. They don't care about any moral code, they only work for the highest bidder and will do anything for the money.

After the Battle of Ceres, they signed a new contract with ARES, responsible for ensuring the safety of the Ark, the Folding Weapon of Space and Time, and also responsible for the security of Typhon.

They are a motley crew of bloodthirsty mercenaries who are willing to solve most problems for their employers as long as they are paid the right price. Therefore, they are deeply loved by their employer, the IMC.

Under General Marder's authority, these apex hunters gained command and control over IMC forces, inflicting heavy damage on the Militia during their attack on Typhon.

In the previous battle, the former pilot of BT 7274, Captain Lastimosa, died at the hands of the specially equipped Ronin Titan controlled by Ash.

This shows how powerful they are. They are definitely not comparable to ordinary Pilots!

So when they descended from the sky and made a high-profile appearance, Chang Wei, who was familiar with their intelligence, immediately widened his eyes and exclaimed that it was impossible!

"How could this happen? Has the plot changed so drastically? Have all the bosses gotten smarter? Instead of lining up to die one by one, they're gathering in a group to fight?"

Soon, the other party's information flashed through Chang Wei's mind.

[No King Here] - Ken. A mercenary belonging to Blisk's Apex Predator organization (APEX), he is a notorious one-eyed drug dealer with unstable mental health, a paranoid personality, and a madcap demeanor. He treats both enemies and teammates the same way.

He lacks the noble elegance of a knight's duel, the heart-wrenching drama of a Valkyrie, or the heroic spirit to turn the tide. From beginning to end, Kane's only goal is to satisfy his morbid bloodlust!

In the game, Kane rides a custom-built Flame Titan. It can perform a three-stage charge, focusing on short- to medium-range bursts with impressive damage output. It also has a sustained AOE attack, and its piercing fire shield can be incredibly painful. However, its drawbacks include poor maneuverability, making it easily kited at long range. Furthermore, its howitzer only has one round, with a slow trajectory and firing rate.

In short, you have short arms, so just be careful not to get hit by the Wildfire Core and you can deal with it easily.

[Edge Dancer] - Ash. Ash is a mercenary member of the Apex Predator organization (APEX) under Blisk.

Before coming to Typhon, Ash was hired by a mercenary organization to steal laboratory data. He pretended to be a scientist and acted as an insider for the mercenary organization to launch an operation, but was later assassinated.

But... she wasn't completely dead. With only her last breath left, Ash lay in the mercenary's lab. In her final moments, she transferred her consciousness into a robot's body. In a strange way, she survived. Blisk then placed an ad for her and she joined APEX.

In the game, she rides a customized Ronin Titan. Because it's a robot, it can perform many exaggerated attacks that mortals can't withstand or achieve, comparable to a blade dancer in close combat.

[Wilderness Hunter] - Richter. A mixed-race orphan who learned to survive on his own from a very young age. He possesses all the traits of a forest hunter, such as collecting trophies and mumbling to himself while hunting.

He is patient, cautious, and skilled at tracking and fighting. Even if defeated, he will choose to self-destruct, thus inflicting the final damage on the enemy. He is like a true hunter!

In the game, he rides a powerful, customized Titan. Its drawbacks include the potential for continuous misses with its semi-automatic 40mm weapon, a lack of burst damage, and its over-reliance on homing missiles, making it easy to dodge behind cover. However, he can leverage the speed of his lightweight suit for close-range attacks!

[Sky Overlord] — Viper. One of the top hunters, an individualist, and quite capable in his own right.

This guy is powerful! But he's also incredibly arrogant, often enjoying chivalrous duels when he's in an advantageous position. Ultimately, in the original game's storyline...he's defeated by Jack Cooper and BT.

Viper's Titan is a modified Polaris, with powerful firepower and flight capabilities. Its disadvantages are low armor and lack of defensive capabilities.

[Iron-Blooded Rose] — Sloane. Compared to the four previous charlatans, this man was a pure, money-driven mercenary, coming to Typhon simply for the commission of this job.

There is not much information about Sloane. We only know that she rides an Ion Titan, which has balanced attributes in all aspects and no obvious shortcomings.

This information only flashed through Chang Wei's mind, but it made him figure out a problem.

That is... there is no way they would send out five top hunters just to stop or kill Jack Cooper alone! They must have other motives!

"What could it be? What could it be? What caused such a big change in the original plot?"

The next second, Chang Wei seemed to have thought of something, his pupils suddenly changed, and he exclaimed.

"They...are here for me! They're here to capture me, or to kill me!"

Just as Chang Wei's heart trembled, the enemy began to join the battlefield. Suddenly, there was fire everywhere and bullets rained down.

At the same time, an extremely arrogant shout was heard in the public channel.

"Who is Lieutenant General Chang Wei? Come out now! You have no way out!"

Boom boom boom!

The shockwave from the explosion sent Chang Wei reeling in the cockpit, sending him careening off the ground. The cockpit shook violently, and the sound of "damn it" echoed in his ears.

Because of his enormous size, Tiantian immediately became the target of the enemy's concentrated fire. If he weren't a heavily armored unit, he would have been blown to pieces by the ferocious firepower!

"Let's go for it! Tiantian! Come on! Kill them!"

Tiantian was also furious and immediately changed into the [Leader Combat Form].

I saw that the two flying wings behind it, one transformed into a heavy armor shield, and the other transformed into an inscribed giant sword.

At this moment, its iconic image of a beautiful 2D girl erupted in anger: "Yimou, kunbiwa... deiki mashitaka! (Are you ready to die?)"
