Publisher's Summary
'''Quenser finally travels into space!? The battle over a space elevator begins!'''

Africa. A vast land of baked sand and hard, cracked earth. Towering up in the distance is a Capitalist Corporations space elevator, a structure so tall it fades away into the blue sky.

"That thing is way too big." "And it uses a wire. I heard an SF movie director was crying tears of joy." The 37th Mobile Maintenance Battalion begins a fight to conquer that giant tower which threatens to alter the state of the world by connecting the heavens and the earth.

The enemy receives an endless supply of cutting-edge weaponry from the sky above and can even send in an artificial meteor shower. Is it even possible for the 37th to turn this one around!? The near-future action finally launches into space!
