Chapter 227: Damage
The explosion lasted for more than a minute, and the explosion was not only so loud that it could burst someone's eardrums and the hustle and bustle, but also unparalleled destructive power. The strong wind caused by the explosion directly took the Black Rider and the three people to be blown more than ten centimeters away, if it weren't for the protection of the Black Rider from the direct impact of the shock wave, just with this blast, the three people who had been unable to move could suffer a lot of damage, even so, after facing an impact, even the Black Rider was half-kneeling on the ground at this time, Tina had been forcibly ejected from the cockpit, and the bright energy part had dimmed at this time.
"Everyone, are you alright?" Ignoring the condition of the Black Rider, Tina hurriedly ran to Ling's position, and was relieved to see that it was okay, before turning her head to ask Estelle and Joshua.
"Well, thanks to this big guy, there was no shock." Estelle replied weakly, because of the exhaustion of her magic power, she still hasn't recovered, but she really hasn't suffered any skin injuries. After the break, it is estimated that he looks alive again.
"Yes, if it weren't for this rider, I'm afraid we would have been blown away." Joshua replied with trepidation as he looked back at the scene of the explosion where the smoke and dust had not yet cleared.
"Anyway, it's great that everyone is okay." Tina let out a long breath and looked up at the half-kneeling Black Rider, "Valelle, how are you?" ”
"With the protection of the knight's armor, minor external damage can be repaired on its own, but due to the depletion of energy, I am afraid that it will need to be dormant for a while, and I will not be able to continue to help you." A blue light flashed in the eyes of the Black Rider, and an electronic voice came out clearly from the sounding device.
"Yes, I'm glad I was sorry for you." Tina's tone of voice was rather complicated, as if she regretted that she could not continue the fight, and resented herself for letting Valaire run out of energy prematurely. All kinds of emotions are mixed together, and I don't know what to say for a while.
"Sister Tina! How's Patil Matiel?! In a trance, they only heard Ling speak loudly and eagerly, looking at the center of the explosion that had not yet dispersed the smoke and dust, and everyone remembered that Patil Matil was at the center of the explosion.
"I'll go check it out." Tina answered, ignoring the vast smoke and dust, and with a few more steps, she fled to the approximate location of Patil Matil in her memory.
Time passed bit by bit, and the three people who were originally because of the victory in the big war, with the passage of time, their relaxed expressions had turned into stunned. Especially Ling, at this time, her face was full of anxiety, if it weren't for the fact that her body was still in a state of soreness, now she would have rushed into the hustle and bustle.
"It's coming, it's coming!" After watching for a long time, Estelle, who was sharp-eyed, couldn't help but shout loudly when she saw Tina rushing out of the dust and smoke, and her look of joy couldn't help but fall into a daze after seeing the huge robot head part in Tina's hand.
"No, it won't..." Joshua subconsciously muttered, no matter how strong the explosion was, in that position, Patil Matil was also an extreme-level weapon, and it was impossible for the heavy armor to be exploded-
"Patil Matil!"
Rei's heart-rending voice interrupted Joshua's thoughts, and the group came to their senses when Tina walked in and placed the broken head apologetically in front of Rei.
"What the hell is going on?!" Joshua, who still didn't believe the scene in front of him, asked eagerly, he who had joined the association naturally knew the data about this weapon, that armor would not be much damaged even if it was hit head-on by a chariot gun, before the appearance of that magic machine, even Joshua thought that there was no weapon stronger than Patil Matil's defense, but now it has become like this, and then looking at Ling who was holding Patil Matil with a headache and crying, Joshua felt uncomfortable in his heart.
"It's a direct hit." Tina replied with an ugly face, "At the last moment of the explosion, Patil Matiel forcibly covered the magic machine with his body, so the impact on us was much smaller than expected, but... ”
Even if Tina doesn't say it, everyone already knows in their hearts that zero distance contact with the center of this explosion, no matter how strong the armor is, it may be difficult to bear, and the scattered parts tear apart Patil Matil's body like fragments of a grenade, and the energy generated by the explosion is further devoured, not to mention Patil Matil, even if it is this divine machine itself, I am afraid it will not be able to survive this level of explosion.
"Ling..." Struggling to get up, hugging Ling in pain, Estelle didn't know how to comfort the girl for a while. The significance of this robot to Ling, I'm afraid there is no more important existence than him except for Ike and the girl named Theo, just like the death of a loved one, although he was still young at the time, but for Estelle, who had experienced the pain of losing her mother, she deeply understood how profound this pain was, except for time, I am afraid that no comfort can heal this wound.
“。。。 Is there no other way? Looking up at Tina, Istelle asked with a pleading glint in her eyes.
"As for the extreme system, even in the association, it is one of the most secret, if there are no suitable spare parts... Tina whispered sadly for a while, and her expression gradually turned to resoluteness, "No, there is still a way, I have seen it, Patil Martier's thinking component has not been damaged too much, as long as he finds a way to get a part that can withstand the thinking component, Dr. Carral will definitely be able to repair and make a body that fits Patil Matil's thinking component!" ”
"Dr. Carral is... One of the rumored disciples of Dr. Epstein?! Joshua looked at Tina in disbelief with a shocked look on his face, "It is rumored that he has never shown up, and even the association can't find his place, why would you... ”
"If it were him, it would not be difficult for him to avoid the eyes of the association, and besides, there are some things about the association that are no longer clear to Joshua, who has been out of the association for a long time." Tina shook her head, "The most important thing now is to send Patil Martier's thinking component to Dr. Caral as soon as possible, although Patil Matil forcibly activated the hibernation mode at the last moment, but in this case, no one knows how long it can last, in case the thinking component is damaged again, there is really no way to recover it." ”
“。。。。。。 No. Ling, who wiped away her tears, looked up at Tina and said with a firm face, "Now my body can't move at all, and it's just a burden to go with Sister Tina... So... ”
“。。。 I see, I'll leave the task of transporting Patil Matil to me. Taking a deep breath, Tina took the massive robot head in Rei's arms.
"Wait, now that the borders have been blocked, how are you going to get out of Crossbell?" Joshua asked.
"Stupid question, Dark Fang." Tina stood up from the ground and said in a relaxed tone, "First of all, not all countries have blocked their borders, secondly, even if they are blocked, there will always be places that are missed, and finally... ”
"As an intelligence officer, isn't it the most obvious knowledge to find these loopholes or create a channel that no one knows?"
