Book 6: Chapter 23: The Real Lie
“Tang, move a bit further, yes, right there…” The two quickly returned to the warehouse. Qin Lun directed the black-haired young man to park the Apostle Mech in the center of the warehouse.
The Atlanteans in the warehouse had all woken up by now. No one could sleep peacefully in this situation. Seeing the mech approach, people silently moved their beds aside, clearing a space for it.
Although they did not know what Qin Lun intended to do, their faces showed deep worry. If the person piloting the mech had not been Tang, the warehouse would have already descended into chaos.
“Hiss!” After parking the mech, the black-haired young man opened the hatch of the Exoskeleton Mecha. This hatch was made from a single piece of crystal glass, a material used for Spiritual Equipment of Apostles. Its surface was imbued with law energy, making it stronger than ordinary hatches, with defensive capabilities no less than a purple-quality shield.
“Mina!” Seeing the mech open, Karu, who had returned to the warehouse earlier, quickly stepped forward and pulled the young girl in brocade clothing out from inside.
“Grandpa Karu, I just saw Daddy!” Mina rubbed her eyes, a happy smile appearing on her chubby little face. “Huh? This is… my necklace! Grandpa Karu, look, the necklace is back!”
Karu looked at the necklace in Mina’s small hand, his expression growing increasingly complex. He calmly said to Qin Lun beside him, “Thank you, sir!”
“Tang, don’t come out yet!” Qin Lun smiled and nodded, then called out to the black-haired young man who was about to climb out of the mech, “Check the mech and pull out the energy core for me!”
“Sir, after pulling out the energy core, the mech won’t be able to move!” Tang hesitated for a moment before speaking uncertainly, “And this thing is Apostle equipment. If we plug it back in later, it would probably count as repairing Apostle equipment. I’m afraid it would require Shattered Crystals!”
