The damage from the hundred-odd kilometers between the Badlands and Santo Domingo combined was nothing compared to what the Flying Bridge and that blow just now had done.

Three Octopus Arms immediately swapped in specialized soft flaw-detection probes and repair arms, inserting them into the prepared "maintenance channels." These channels were only as wide as a finger and ran throughout the entire electronic control platform.

But honestly, with a vehicle this large, even though it had been designed for performance and interference resistance, there were still plenty of places that simply couldn't be repaired while it was moving.

"Was that hammer really that powerful?"

"Very powerful." Lier praised him sincerely. "Anyone would've been down after taking a hit from it."

Using a super melee weapon like that with a full-body cybernetic conversion came with a limitation that was extremely difficult to solve:

Your skeleton was mechanical, your muscles synthetic, your nerves electrified, and your skin bulletproof, but your brain basically had to remain the original.

Soft brain tissue had little resistance to powerful shock waves and the immense acceleration caused by the body moving at high speed.

Polyurethane Foam, Non-Newtonian Fluid, and nanomaterial-based energy-absorption devices could only do their best. In high-intensity combat, brain damage was practically unavoidable.

With something like Hi-Hammer, its formidable hardness meant the object being hit often served as an energy-absorbing crumple zone, so the recoil wasn't too strong.

But a collision between evenly
