Story[]
A human village with armor, weapons and cultural attire that are very similar to the Electrofishers, got an elder who is connected to the Authority. He is much higher than the other villagers and said to live for many years thanks to some sort of anti-aging therapy. He uses his Netsphere link to tell the Authority laws to his village.
Later a boy from the village who was searching for water sources finds a Structure Conversion Tower and summons the village warriors. They wear the same gear as the Electrofishers but they ride horse-like robots. Then they reach the Tower they talk about using it as a source of energy but then attacked by Safeguard Exterminators.
One wounded rider manages to get back to town, she is referred to as "Soldier-san". Later a stranger comes to the village, he bears the mark of Authority and calls himself a Dismantler. He tells the townsfolk that the exterminators are on their way to the village and that he is going to dismantle the Tower to stop them. His words are met with opposition from Soldier-san.
The Dismantler heads to the Tower, he is shown to wear a pendant that acts as a Electric Barrier Generator and alter the Exterminator non-hostile. Soldier-san follows him but he paralyzes her suite with a dart of sort. He then gives her the pendant and goes to dismantle the Tower. On the way he fight Exterminators and a huge worm-like Silicon Life but in the end manages to deactivate it.
