Hans left Big Rhino behind and returned toward the northern entrance.
The Vanguard's commander continued talking through the radio, though Hans no longer listened to every word. Something about the Tank needing a larger relative next time.
Matilda ignored it completely.
Bastion One had moved closer to the collection area while Hans inspected Big Rhino.
Its hull remained covered in dust, dried blood, and several shallow marks left by debris thrown across the parking lot.
None of those appeared serious. The turret continued watching the commercial entrance while soldiers moved beneath it with boxes and shopping carts.
Its rear ramp remained lowered.
Several crates had already been placed inside.
Hans slowed.
Another star rested beside Bastion One's name.
He selected it.
