On Source Star, a lot can be accomplished in a single day.
After arriving outside the walls of Zhaoshan Town, Ren Zhong dispatched a First Level War Artist he had recently groomed to operate a large siege machine he had prepared in advance, attempting a probing breach of the city walls.
However, this machine was promptly destroyed by the sudden appearance of several large-caliber heavy artillery atop the walls, obliterating its automated weapon defense system into scrap within moments.
According to the rules of corporate warfare, this machine, clearly belonging to Ren Zhong, was his asset, and thus did not activate the autonomous defensive firepower installed by the town's government to repel Ruined Beasts.
The previous intelligence from the scouts indicated that the walls were not equipped with these heavy artillery.
