The back of the hill, not far from the Tower of Hoshimi, is surrounded by trees, and no one cares about this inconspicuous-looking little dirt bag against the backdrop of ample shelter. As the Steelmaiden's massive and terrifying power disappeared from the top of the Tower of Starsight, it was a long time later, behind the empty knoll, that the two figures dared to poke their heads out and look at their surroundings.

"Phew—no matter what, I've finally completed the mission, and it's good to survive." With a heavy sigh of relief, Ike lay down on the dirt bag with a big grin, looking up at a few white clouds floating by, quite a bit of a leisurely feeling, compared with the fierce battle just now, it was a bit like a world away.

"The barrier has been opened, and from the moment the bell was broken, it was clearly felt that Ling and the others must have succeeded in stopping the vibration of the bell." Levi looked at the Tower of Hospitami, which no longer had a trace of enchantment.

"It's a clown after all, and this kind of goalkeeper-like thing doesn't interest him, as long as Patil Martil uses his full strength from the start, he should slip away immediately." Ike replied disapprehantly, "But that's fine, there is no interference from the association, but we can't ask for it, presumably the president, who has already found out the news that the barrier has been destroyed, and then the two sides are officially at war." ”

"Your injuries...

"If you break three ribs, you can run away with three ribs in that situation, and to be honest, it's already a lot of money." Ike smiled slightly wryly, "What about you?" ”

"Except for the arm, everything else is fine." Levi gestured for his arm that was hanging down from the injury, "If it weren't for the bell, I'm afraid I would have to take the slash from Lord Arian Heard head-on." ”

"That's really 'lucky'." Ike gloated at Levi, his wound tugging at him with laughter, and from time to time there was the sound of coughing and inhaling cold air. As time passed, the sound of the huge engine finally arrived, and a light flashed in the sky, even with Patil Martier, Kevin's Merkava slowly docked not far from Ike, and after a while, Kevin and Liz walked out of it, and after a burst of emergency ambulance, with the help of a stretcher, finally sent Ike to the Merkava.

"It's really unexpected, I heard Xiaoling say that you went to confront the Saintess of Steel, I thought you would 。。。。。。 I didn't expect to have so much spirit in the end, when did Ike become so strong? On the Merkava, Kevin, who was observing Ike's injuries while using healing techniques, asked in surprise.

"It's nothing, it's just that she smashed the big bell of the ancient relic while she wasn't paying attention, and even then it looks like this, if you face it head-to-head, I'm afraid that no one will be able to withstand the teacher except for your perverted chief." Ikewan replied on a stretcher. Despite the church's treatment, rib recovery could not be achieved overnight, and under Lis's strict restraint, Ike, who was forbidden to stand up, could only lie on a specially made stretcher in the command room of the Merkava for treatment. "By the way, Kevin, since the barrier over Crossbell is gone, the Merkava...

"We're already on the move." Kevin immediately replied, "Judging from the information from Waji's side, the three gods are all concentrating on guarding the city, even if they enter Crossbell's airspace, they should not be attacked." We've just made a few attempts, but as we thought, there was no magic to thwart it. ”

"Sister Tio has just communicated with Ling, Lloyd and they have also made contact with the Black Moon and the rebel garrison, and Commander Sonia has also assured that the forces of Belgaard Gate and Tanggulam Gate will remain neutral, and then they will only need to deal with Cross Bell's forces head-on."

"Even so, the form is still very serious." Kevin sighed heavily, "Just now I contacted Waji and their operations, and decided that we would be responsible for diverting the attack of the god machine, and Lloyd and Kevin would drive the Merkava to carry out the assault, although my Melkava and Ling's Patil Martier can each attract a god machine, but the third white god machine is a big trouble, although there is no ability to destroy space, but from the point of view of intelligence, his basic performance has not been weakened by this, only with the power of human beings, I'm afraid it's hard to do damage to a weapon of this level. ”

"And the intelligence in the city of Crossbell has not been transmitted, it seems that the establishment of the information should be blocked, in the case of no contact and the other party can contact, combat power and military strength are superior to us, it can be said that it is wishful thinking to win the war." Ike pondered for a moment and replied, "Kevin, when does the attack start?" ”

"The plan is that tomorrow morning, the Rangers and the Black Moon will be in charge of containing the Red Constellation, and Lloyd and them will take the opportunity to break into Crossbell. But I guess Ike you can't sit idle, aboard the Merkava, right? ”

"Of course, one night? Barely enough. Ike examined his injuries, "If you were talking about communication, it would be the Orchid Tower." Levi, as agreed, one night plus the treatment of the Qiyao Church, your injuries should be fine, right? ”

"It depends on the healing skills of the church." Levi replied quietly, "However, even if he does not recover, this level of damage has no effect on combat effectiveness. ”

"This is really a challenge to our church, obviously Mr. Levy, you have left the association, are you still prejudiced against the church... Kevin looked helplessly at Levi's naked provocation, "Lis, I'll trouble you." ”

"No problem, bet on the reputation of the Qiyao Church, the injuries of the two will definitely be able to recover before the offensive starts tomorrow morning." Liz nodded calmly and affirmatively.

"Helped a lot." Ike replied gratefully, "Ling, and Estelle and Joshua, how about you and Patyr Matiel, just like Kevin said, contain one of the divine machines?" ”

"Of course, Patil Matiel won't simply lose to that kind of toy." Ling replied confidently.

"To be honest, I haven't seen the power of those divine machines with my own eyes, but judging from the situation introduced by Kevin, it seems that those divine machines are not something that human beings can simply contend with." Joshua smiled wryly, "But we'll do our best." ”

"Don't be pushy, Tina will go over to help, and if I can't stop it, I'll try to let reinforcements over." Ike replied in a deep voice, "No matter what, tomorrow will probably be the final battle, and it depends on your actions to see where Crossbell goes, so spare no effort to make a big fuss!" ”

"Oh!"
