Planet of Sand and Oasis of Iron

Chapter 434 433. It will probably take a long time to collect and sort it out.

The process was brutal, with all parties suffering agonizing casualties. However, ultimately, the entertainment companies suffered the most in casualties throughout the entire defense.

Not to mention those who gained benefits and became loyal soldiers, the machines brought by the entertainment companies were not all useless. In fact, their actions were orderly, and they even had some tactical coordination.

Many corporate mercenaries were caught off guard, their weapons and equipment unsuitable for urban combat, and they crashed into walls, their weapons got stuck in passages, and they couldn't turn around and were killed...

All kinds of troubles arose one after another, but in the end, all the things of these entertainment companies were wiped out.

On the way back, destroyed machines could be seen everywhere. Some lay miserably in the middle of the road, while others were embedded in the walls, with energy flowing out of them, making one wonder if they were truly completely unable to move.

Due to Seifer's activeness, most students have no idea that they have ever entered a vision.

As the fighting gradually subsided, most people could no longer bear the upheaval of their sleep and rest schedules, and no longer worried about falling asleep and sinking into the lava and being unable to open their eyes.

Only the people at the central control system were working overtime, and they were even rushing to reset the system and restore the connection to the remote energy station before this group of people collapsed from exhaustion, so that it could start operating.

The first lights to come on were in the overcrowded medical station, followed by other college facilities. After all the doors were opened normally, the students in the college control system fell asleep.

As for the follow-up things... let's talk about it after I wake up.

The first team to enter the academy city through all the gates was the engineering team. They had to complete the emergency repairs on the giant vision gate.

Following them came the assistance and command of the still-mobile college personnel, who were responsible for putting the college city into repair mode. Before the inventory work was completed, students from each college and even some teachers were not allowed to move freely.

The whole city was filled with smoke, but this was all post-war smoke. The entertainment company only had one satellite city left here, struggling to survive - the fighting was raging inside.

Even the large vertical well that was used as a backup to try to cause turbulence in the lava lake has been occupied by the "resistance forces". It is estimated that it will not take long before the entertainment company's last piece of land here will fall.

The three companies acted in surprisingly consistent steps at this time. They focused on gathering the remaining soldiers and restoring order, and then sent more engineering teams to recover the wreckage of the entertainment company's aircraft.

Look for the 'driver' that can be taken out.

A machine with a broken left arm and mottled marks all over its body, to the point where its original color was barely recognizable, attracted a lot of attention when it returned.

Don't be fooled by its miserable appearance. The machines that can move now are essentially veterans. What's more, this one has been certified in the mercenary system. The number of machines that have just fallen under its wheels is at least in the double digits.

Everyone respects those who have extraordinary fighting power.

Then he continued to work hard to pry open the hatch from the thing that was leaning against the roadside and the exterior of the fuselage was completely beaten to pieces.

The thick and heavy hatch opened, and as expected, the interior had been specially modified to make it unsuitable for human piloting and the space inside was extremely narrow.

It can only hold a very small metal can, and its outer layered impact-proof structure requires two people to hold it... There's no need to explain what's inside.

The tracked machine slowly stopped, and several sunken heads seemed to glance over here before continuing to move forward.

Back at the Academy City, dots of light streamed down from the somewhat broken, but still largely intact, dome above his head. Although the air was still thick with smoke... Sefer breathed a sigh of relief.

Then I realized that the big star in my body had been silent since a while ago.

He is not dead!
I quickly checked inside...his heart rate, breathing, and pulse seemed normal, but his eyes were closed tightly, and he seemed to have temporarily lost consciousness.

Slowing down the machine, Seifer asked over the comms, "Shengnai, are you still in the medical area?" "Huh? ... No, I'm in the car. The mobile base was just attacked by the enemy, and a child is injured. I'm treating her right now."

Shengnai's gentle voice can easily soothe the unresolved emotions of those who have just been through a battle...even though Cypher now has a machine body.

Back to the hull, one side of the theoretically heavy and strong armor plate was also full of pits. Fortunately, those shells or rockets did not penetrate the armor at all...

Even the armor-piercing jets failed to penetrate it. Perhaps the heat dissipation pipes between the double-layer composite blocked the armor-piercing bullets to a certain extent, or perhaps the opponent's caliber was not enough.

Anyway, the car body was only slightly damaged, and the passengers inside probably suffered some minor injuries due to the impact, which are all within the controllable range.

Compared to Cypher's battered machine, the mobile base...wasn't really damaged that much.

Optimistically entering the hangar and stopping the machine, Sever jumped down from mid-air nimbly. As soon as he landed, he heard Miss Nana let out a pleasant moan.

Let’s put it this way, if Cypher were in flesh and blood now, he would probably be a little tempted too.

After a few seconds of silence, Seifer opened his body in the hangar, stuck all his clothes on his body, and carried Miss Nana, who was wet all over and looked like she had just had a workout, to sit on the chair next to him.

After putting the skin in place and making sure everything was alright, Seifer turned around and, as expected, saw Sanai running towards him with a medical kit.

"You've had a hard time fighting, Cypher... Shall I check her out first?"

"Thank you for your hard work. Once you're done with this in the car, go and rest. This won't be fixed in a few days. It's not worth it to rush into overtime and tire yourself out."

Shengnai nodded gently, blinking her eyes. After checking, she palpated the area and finally nodded, "It's probably because I'm too tired."

"Just tired?"

"Yes, if I remember correctly, Miss Nana only rested for two hours after the concert before she was asked to hold a private concert. Then she was taken into the vision..."

Then I worked and sang in the vision, and after returning, I even experienced being held hostage and being held hostage...

Even an independent mercenary would not be able to withstand this level of activity, let alone her flesh and blood body. No matter how much she has trained her patience, it should have reached its limit by now.

In fact, there is more than that, but Shengnai is embarrassed to say it.

"Okay, I'll take the big star to rest first, and then come back to deal with other things... How's the situation in the car?"

Shengnai shook her head. She had only been responsible for first aid and treatment, and didn't care much about other things. It would be better to ask Dr. Mei, who had been missing the whole time.

"Oh, by the way, Cipher, when you're putting someone in the backup body, remember to let her stretch her arms and legs whenever you can. There's a slight problem with blood circulation here and there."

There's such a detailed explanation... There's nothing we can do. The situation is urgent and we're fighting all the time, so we really can't take care of everything.

After finding a room for Miss Nana to stay in, Sefer felt as if there were people talking everywhere in the car, chirping as if there were a group of sparrows nearby.

Listening carefully, they were all familiar voices, interspersed with Ichika's repeated instructions for them not to play with dangerous ammunition and to put things away in order.

It’s a pity that the younger generations, who suddenly relaxed after the battle, are now in a state of excitement and few people can listen.
