After a round of sparring, both of their faces and bodies were covered with marks left by lightning.
Just as everyone was admiring Kanna's Art, the door opened again, and a green-haired figure rushed out in a flurry.
"I heard soone got injured during practice upstairs. I'm going to see who the hell is so blind and doesn't know how busy the dical Departnt is, causing us trouble... Holy crap, notify the dical Departnt! All Doctors and nurses on duty who aren't in surgery, get up here! Bring all the stretchers! There are a large number of casualties on the deck, repeat, a large number of casualties on the deck!"
As she walked, the voice holding a hamr kept cursing, but after exiting and seeing the Operators scattered on the ground, she grabbed the communicator hanging from her waist and started making calls.
In less than five minutes, a large group of Doctors rushed out of the door, carrying stretchers.
After finishing the call, Gavial put down her communicator and rushed into the crowd, first grabbing the unlucky fellow (Sharp) who had just sat up.
"What happened? Why are so many people down?"
Sharp also erged from the excitent of the earlier sparring. Looking at the circle of Operators around him, many of whom were still twitching on the ground from the electric shocks, he couldn't help but feel that things had gotten out of hand.
"Everyone just got a bit carried away while testing the skill. At most, they were just stunned by the electricity. It shouldn't be a big problem." Recalling the feeling of being struck by lightning, Sharp pulled Gavial, telling her not to worry.
Soon, the Doctors also arrived on the deck, and seeing the injured lying everywhere, they all had dark lines on their faces.
Fortunately, after examination, most were just numbed by the electricity. Only a few unlucky ones were directly knocked unconscious, but there were no seriously injured, and most would fully recover after a day or two of rest.
Kal'tsit was a bit late when she heard the news from upstairs in the Control Room. She had a rough idea of what those Operators would look like after testing. Her original plan was to borrow a few vehicles from the Engineering Departnt later to transport these unlucky ones, but since Gavial had gone up with people, that plan was off.
At this mont, Kanna, Popukar, and Rosmontis had already returned to the ship. They found Amiya and then went to the Engineering Departnt together.
In Vulcan's workshop, Kanna recounted the story of Rock Bay Town again. When they heard Kanna fighting a giant beast hundreds of ters long in the sea, wielding a greatsword and enduring lightning, they were so astonished they didn't even dare to breathe.
When they heard that Kanna had scared away the giant beast with a powerful move called "Thunder Dragon Armant: I Form the Head" (though everyone was puzzled by the strange na of the move), they all breathed a sigh of relief.
Vulcan closed her eyes, recalled the scars on the weapon, and nodded. Although Kanna's narration contained so exaggeration, it should be largely accurate and consistent with most of the marks on the weapon.
"I have no problem with the rest, but this... why would you bite the weapon?" Vulcan pointed to the teeth marks on the weapon.
"Gah!"
Looking at the curious gazes of a large group of people, Kanna broke out in a cold sweat... Could she possibly say that when she was eating jellyfish, the texture was so good, and she enjoyed it so much that in a mont of excitent, she bit it and left a tooth mark?
If she really said that, wouldn't the heroic image she had painstakingly built up completely collapse?
"Never mind," Vulcan said, seeing Kanna's expression and guessing sothing. She shook her head and continued, "It's not a big problem, but you still need to pay attention later."
"From your description, this weapon's combat effectiveness against large creatures still needs improvent. You probably won't be leaving anyti soon, so leave this weapon with . I'll figure out how to strengthen it. Oh, it's almost dinner ti. Take Cerberus to get so dinner."
He walked back to the weapon, standing in front of the greatsword, deep in thought.
Led by Amiya, the group erged from inside.
After exiting, they noticed a silver-haired girl standing not far away. She held a cara, standing motionless, which, combined with the "beep beep beep" sounds from a robot nearby reminding passersby to be careful, presented a unique combination.
"That is Ms. Scene, a Pyrosan from Sargon. She doesn't like to talk much. If you have any questions, you can ask the chanical auxiliary vehicle beside her."
A familiar voice ca from beside them. Everyone turned to see Kroos, who had arrived next to them at so point.
"Ms. Scene, I've seen her in the intelligence reports. She's an excellent photographer and a rare battlefield reconnaissance master at Rhodes Island." After Kroos finished speaking, Amiya recalled for a mont and found her information among the mountain of Operator nas.
"However, according to the report, she doesn't seem to be very good at communicating with people…" Amiya said, a little conflicted, as she watched Kanna curiously walk over.
Kanna waved her hand, "Don't worry! I'm not stealing her lens. Besides, she's just spacing out. What a great opportunity to… make friends!"
Kanna bounced in front of Scene, curiously examining her.
"Hello, I am Operator Scene's auxiliary robot. Is there anything I can help you with?" Beside them, seeing Kanna approach, the robot next to Scene imdiately spoke.
Kanna didn't answer. Instead, she curiously wiggled her finger in front of Scene, only to find that the other party's gaze rely trembled slightly.
Just as the auxiliary robot below frantically circled the two several tis, Kroos grabbed Kanna from the side. "Ms. Scene is a very special existence at Rhodes Island. You mischievous child, don't bother her."
At this mont, Scene seed to react, nodding towards Kanna's previous spot and opening her mouth as if to say sothing, but no sound ca out.
"Wow! That delay is almost a minute!" Kanna, standing nearby, looked shocked. It really was an ultra-long reaction ti.
"Co on, let's go! Don't tease her!" Kroos really didn't want to see Kanna in the Engineering Departnt, because she still felt a pang of heartache rembering the previous losses. Of course, in other places, like the convenience store, she would be quite welco.
"Don't be so hasty! Can I commission a picture of the morning glow, the kind where the sky is filled with light for that brief mont just as the sun is about to rise…" Even as Kroos pulled her, Kanna stubbornly poked her head out and asked.
Upon hearing the commission, Scene's reaction was noticeably faster. As her eyes flickered, the small car spoke.
"Ms. Scene has agreed to your request. We will deliver a satisfactory photo to you within a maximum of one month."
