The mecha was now kneeling on one knee on the ground. There were no scratches on its body; everything seemed normal.
Chase Shaw finally breathed a sigh of relief.
At that moment, he shouted into the group channel, "Erin Xavier, what happened?"
He looked around but didn't see Erin Xavier's mecha. It was obviously Erin's that had the problem. He figured Erin must have gone into Zoe Pierce's mecha.
But he still didn't quite understand why Zoe Pierce wasn't responding.
Erin Xavier explained Zoe Pierce's situation to Chase Shaw, just as he had to Miles Sherman.
When they heard that this was why Zoe Pierce had fainted, Nathan Lockwood and Chase Shaw were momentarily at a loss for words.
Unexpected, but it made sense.
This kind of thing also happened on the battlefield—stress-induced PTSD. Returning to such an environment could trigger a spontaneous physical reaction.
Nathan Lockwood jumped out of his mecha and stood in front of Zoe Pierce's.
