At D-29's additional warning, Luca immediately prepared a stronger spiritual barrier.
Only to realize the attack wasn't aimed at him, but directly at the very mecha he was scavenging!

In that moment, Luca finally understood.
Until the very end, these people were willing to deny[1] their own people and resources if it meant preventing their opponents from benefiting from them!
Such intensity!
Admittedly, the sacrificial friendly fire hadn't been particularly successful, if only because his spiritual barrier had managed to absorb the impact. But if they'd tried the same thing against someone with a less developed ability to put up barriers on the fly, they likely would've succeeded.
Considering that, Luca couldn't possibly ask the other mechanics to scavenge the hostiles' mechas like this.
