After the snowstorm subsided, the intense burning lasted for several hours before slowly dying down, like a carnival after a sacrifice. The remaining ashes danced wildly like black snow all over the sky.
It seemed that everything was over, new hatreds and old grudges, glory and shame, all were thrown into the blazing flames and burned to ashes.
The night sky became darker, as if a huge dark monster was slowly diving.
The giant whale of steel and machinery swam slowly in the clouds, its sails cutting through the cumulus clouds, thick steam overflowing like a breath, and its engine roared like thunder, as if it came with wind and rain.
"How does the Geiger index react?"
"It is in the stable value range. It looks like Lawrence is dead."
The brief conversation took place in the command room. This time Arthur led the team personally. In the somewhat dim space, various indicator lights illuminated his old face.
He stood at the front of the command room. Transparent composite glass covered the ground beneath his feet and the front. Human vision could barely penetrate it and see the situation on the ground. The fire was burning fiercely, and it was unknown when it would be extinguished.
“Do we need to continue observing?”
Red Falcon asked from the side.
Due to its heavy load, the Forward Unto Dawn does not have much ammunition stored, and its current military strategy is more inclined to secret transportation.
"Go on, we need to wait a little longer."
Arthur said warily.
The horror of Lawrence has been deeply rooted in everyone's heart. He dare not guarantee what will happen if Lawrence is not dead. Once they dive rashly, they may step into the attack range of the erosion. All they can do is continue to wait and ensure that the situation will not change abnormally.
"Do you need the Original Sin Armor for reconnaissance? The few First Generation Armor are in the cabin and can dive at any time."
Kestrel suggested again.
"First generation armor?"
Arthur frowned.
"This is Merlin's suggestion. The second-generation armor is indeed controllable, but facing Lawrence... even Lawrence is on the verge of death, the performance is still slightly insufficient, so the sealed first-generation armor was taken out. Galahad is on standby in the rear, and he can drive it again."
The cold voice replied. Red Falcon knew very well what it meant to drive it again. Ever since he lost control last time, Galahad had been severely corroded. Using it this time would mean his death. However, he was the only one on the Forward Toward Dawn who had experience in driving the first generation of armor.
"Where's Lancelot?"
"As consumables, Merlin said he should use them for more important things."
The conversation suddenly fell silent, and for a moment only the mechanical operation and the single-frequency signal sounds were left.
"There have been enough sacrifices tonight, so forget it."
Arthur sighed, just feeling tired.
"So, what title should be given to Lorenzo?"
"Ceremony?"
Arthur didn't quite understand what Kestrel said.
"Like some... recognition of identity? Like the rank of knight or something? Although for a dead person, this thing is no longer important, but at least it is a proof."
Hong Jian thought for a moment and continued, he wasn't quite sure how to express this.
