I can see. Let's just say that I don't particularly care. This isn't an insult to you, it's just that, well, I am literally unable to.

<Snipped quote by Armed Forces>

*I continue running, before jumping up onto a roof and following it by leaping from rooftop to rooftop. The vehicle enters a convoy of similar trucks before its roof-mounted machine gun turns to fire at me.*

<Snipped quote by GalaxyRaider>

Can you get rid of this?

<Snipped quote by Source>

While it's this small and not unfathomably large like the one before... I think so.
*My armored hands glow purple as I place them against the storm lie it were a solid object. My armor as a whole partially comes apart and turns into an array of devices that stream energy into my hands, expanding a barrier around this side of the storm, but not the entire thing*

<Snipped quote by GalaxyRaider>

If not, this won’t be a pleasant attack to deal with.

<Snipped quote by Source>

I'll destroy this one, just the one time... Maybe. But even then, nothing stops him from doing it again.
*My armor comes apart from me entirely to form an array of new devices all operating on in tandem with each other to maintain the barrier pressed against the storm*

<Snipped quote by Tank O The Lake>

Then I hope you can follow orders.

<Snipped quote by Source>

Don't worry, that's something I can do. So, then...

*The android bows cordially.*

What is required of me?

<Snipped quote by Tank O The Lake>

We have a single target: namely, the astral creature generating this storm. Everyone else is aligned with our cause. Of that entity, you should focus your attacks on the crystal that drives it. It's unlikely to break, but it will expel energy in the direction of force applied to it. Don't allow it to hit allies if that can be avoided. Keep the man in the suit that controls the storm safe at all costs.

<Snipped quote by GalaxyRaider>

Can you end it in future attempts?

<Snipped quote by Tank O The Lake>

*Catches up to the convoy and leaps up onto the roof of the truck furthest back, then assesses the situation for an additional moment before leaping from car to car toward the one that kidnapped the girl*

<Snipped quote by Source>

There's a fleet of mine in orbit. Would a bombardment work?

<Snipped quote by Source>

... No.

<Snipped quote by Tank O The Lake>

How targeted?

<Snipped quote by GalaxyRaider>

What’s stopping you?

<Snipped quote by Source>

He was referring to his dispersement of the storm. He wasn't talking about the bombardment. The fleet was designed for expeditions, so the bombardment weapons are for close support in the event of combat. It's not a carpet bombing, since that would kill the expedition team. We've measured it to land within 15 meters of the target, excepting freak wind currents or deflection.

<Snipped quote by Tank O The Lake>

I recognize that. You also lack insight into who is inside the storm right now.

<Snipped quote by Source>

It's like one of those 'mystery boxes' your kind refers to. Not knowing what you're going to pull from the unfathomable is just part of the fun!

<Snipped quote by Tank O The Lake>

How targeted?

<Snipped quote by GalaxyRaider>

What’s stopping you?

<Snipped quote by Tank O The Lake>

A mystery isn't something we can afford in these circumstances. This is too volatile a situation.

<Snipped quote by Tank O The Lake>

<Snipped quote by Armed Forces>

*Reaches the truck, and grabs the machine gun from behind, tearing it from the car and tossing the detached machinery behind me off the vehicle*
How about that?
