After hearing Lin Zhengyang's account, Elder Wei's heart sank. He quickly summoned an engineer for a more detailed inquiry.
It was a case of bad luck, really. The Geothermal Energy Extractor was so large that they had to dismantle it and transport it in 20 separate Armored Vehicles.
Of those 20 Armored Vehicles, only three were carrying essential components. But as luck would have it, one of those was the very vehicle that got blown up.
"Is there really no way to repair it?" Wei Tianxing asked after a brief silence, unwilling to give up hope.
"We don't have the technical expertise," the engineer replied, sounding quite helpless. "And that's high-tech, precision equipment. The Shelter doesn't have the instruments to repair it. We don't even have the means to try."
