Chapter 467 Discovery
“…It’s alright.” The other person said in a low voice, then placed their palm on Jiang Hui’s forehead.

Jiang Hui felt the chaotic magnetic field subside slightly, but her mind was still somewhat muddled. The noise in her head was now dominant, constantly buzzing. After what she had just experienced, her skin still throbbed faintly, a dull, throbbing pain, more like a stress response in her nerves.

"Oh dear, you're asking if he's alright now... You're the one who's alright. Huan is perfectly fine, he came out right away. But you fell pretty badly, are you feeling better? Don't worry, I've already called the family doctor over." It was Hillman's voice, unusually exasperated. Normally, she wouldn't speak to her so forcefully.

"She must have experienced nerve stress in her back, causing her to roll slightly to her side. She looks like she's in a lot of pain." Another voice was relatively calm, but it inevitably carried a hint of anxiety. He was also talking quietly to another adult, and Jiang Hui didn't listen carefully to what they were saying at the moment.

After a while, Jiang Hui finally felt a little better.

The person next to her opened a kettle of water, intending to feed her, but then realized she seemed to have regained consciousness: "..."

"woke up?"

"...Hmm." Jiang Hui was now fully awake. The various discomforts she had felt earlier had mostly disappeared, leaving only a series of lingering, aching sensations on her skin, reminding her that it wasn't just her imagination.

Fortunately, they didn't really fight that hard; it was just a friendly spar... Otherwise, if they had really exchanged punches and kicks, by the end of the match, either she would be crippled, the other would be crippled, or they would all be crippled together.

These mechs are completely different from the ones they learned about in school. The operating experience is much better, and the combat power is also greater, but it is also more dangerous and uncontrollable. Moreover, everything encountered in battle is reflected in the operator in a different form.

Even just nerve connections are enough, since nerves are a major component for the human body to perceive pain.

Of course, only the mecha is directly damaged; once the connection between the two ends is severed, there is no way to reconnect. Jiang Hui's pain stems more from the mental stress response triggered by the direct connection of mental energy; it's a kind of phantom pain, not real pain. Once the neuronal response recovers, the body will naturally stop feeling pain.

There shouldn't be any major problems.

Huan Xian, who was familiar with mechs, naturally knew this as well. However, the other party's pain was too real for him to bear, so he could not stand idly by.

Jiang Hui gulped down a whole bottle of water, replenishing her fluids and making her mind clearer.

"Ah... I'm alive again."

"You scared us to death! Clarence and I were watching from outside when this happened. As soon as we realized something was wrong, we rushed in. If you hadn't reacted quickly, we would have almost led a group to break into your hatch," Hillman complained lightly, as if he had breathed a sigh of relief.

"I'm telling you, you guys are taking this too seriously. It's just a friendly spar, there's no need to be like this. If you played like this, the school clinic would be packed with people every day. If our class saw this, we'd ban you from practical training..."

God knows, Hillman's heart nearly stopped when he saw his two friends being swept into the vortex of air and violently thrown far away. Clarence was the fastest, rushing over before Hillman could react. When Hillman realized what was happening, he quickly sent the butler with men to help.

Of course, the quickest to react was Huan Xian, who had also crashed to the ground. Slightly disheveled, Huan Xian emerged from the rear hatch and, without even glancing at them, immediately jumped onto Jiang Hui's mech. Had Jiang Hui not just happened to have access to the hatch, Hillman would have suspected that Huan Xian might have dismantled the hatch with his bare hands. He had no doubt about the abilities of his incredibly powerful friend.

Fortunately, everything turned out alright, a false alarm.

Jiang Hui sat up, thanked Huan Xian who had been supporting her for a while, and tried to stand up on her own. However, she overestimated her body's coordination. When she stood up halfway, her back ached, and her legs felt weak. Even when she managed to stand up, she was unsteady and dizzy. In the end, someone next to her helped her stand up completely.

Seeing her looking so uncomfortable and listless, Hillman was both amused and annoyed: "Jiang, you really are... Sigh, never mind, has the therapist arrived yet? Let's wait here and have him take a look at you first."

In just a short while, Jiang Hui no longer felt any discomfort. However, her nervous system was still somewhat sensitive, and her temples throbbed with pain. Considering the condition of her brain, Jiang Hui naturally wanted to examine it.

Seeing that Jiang Hui was really alright, the atmosphere in the room immediately eased up a lot.

After refusing the mobile stretcher Mr. Dewey arranged, Jiang Hui finally remembered to inquire about the mecha's condition. Based on her direct sensory experience, the mecha had been badly damaged in the fall; at least two large sections of its back were broken, not counting the smaller components, and it was ready for repair.

Hillman shook his head: "I don't know, but it looks like it took a pretty hard fall from the outside. Don't worry, I've got a team coming over, they can fix it for you. By the way, what exactly happened here? I saw you guys were fighting just fine, and then suddenly your rear artillery opened fire. Did it go out of control?"

Friend, that wasn't out of control, I deliberately drove it... But the two people being pulled into the air vortex and flipped and thrown out together should be considered out of control, because even she, the creator, didn't expect the two convection currents to generate such a great force. She ultimately underestimated the energy flow that the mecha could create.

“You guys are so tactless…” Clarence, standing to the side, crossed his arms, his face so dark it was almost frightening.

Hillman wasn't very knowledgeable about this kind of thing, and coupled with his lack of combat acumen, he naturally didn't quite understand it. Clarence, however, was different. As a fellow combatant, even if he couldn't see through all of Jiang Hui's tricks, he had at least grasped about five or six parts of it from an observer's perspective.

Judging from this brief battle, these two are truly insane. Huan Xian is insane, and Jiang Hui is insane too. They fight without any restraint or regard for technique; they're simply risking their lives. If they were given the chance to continue fighting, who knows what deadly things might have happened.

Jiang Hui felt inexplicably guilty and dared not reply.

"It seems something happened while I was away..." A voice suddenly interrupted their conversation.
