It was a minor surprise, after all.
Lacroix not only had to throw the thermite bomb like a hand grenade over a distance of more than a hundred meters, but also had to be extremely precise. Moreover, he had to complete this task under the pursuit of about a dozen Plague Flies.
While doing this series of tasks, he really was busy.
He had already relayed the tasks to the best of his ability, far from being flustered; each step was precisely calculated with impeccable execution.
But he couldn't ensure absolute perfection in every issue.
The thermite bomb was thrown accurately, but its activation time was slightly early, so it exploded before even touching the Shield Generator.
However, the problem wasn't too significant.
The thermite bomb that exploded about one meter above the approximately two and a half meter tall Shield Generator still scattered a substantial amount of red, high-temperature material that splattered and flowed onto the Shield Generator.
