Thriller Paradise

Chapter 450: 450

On their way here, R2-Sharp Gale naturally had told everything about Origin to Xiao Tan and Matcha Cookie and explained the basic appearance of 23 and Red Iron. Xiao Tan had met 23 before and Red Iron looked so different from the other Anomalies so they did not need to worry about friendly fire.

“That super disgusting monster is ROOT, is it…” Matcha Cookie had locked on with her virtual panel. “Okay… Grab the king and win the war… We’ll go after her first!”

“Okay…” With the order, Xiao Tan focused and then… his hand started to move the two toggles. At that moment, the question in his heart was: ‘Why a strange primary school student capable of various dark technology weapon would have such a basic understanding of a machine’s movement system…’

“Stop it!” ROOT shouted the order. At the same time, the lazers started to fire at 23 again.

“Hmph… Looks like we are not absolutely without hope, are we?” 23 scoffed and leaped to avoid the attack. On the other side, Shiva noticed that Golden Maggot Number One was not as simple as it looked. Seeing the machine make a beeline towards ROOT, he shouted, “Go and help!” The other three from Brahman and Red Iron followed the instruction immediately and they understood what was the meaning behind the word ‘help’. All of them used their skills and swept the Anomalies that blocked the way of the robot. Even though the five had reached their limit, together they could still do something. Furthermore, the sight of the robot was like wanderers coming across an oasis in the desert, it gave them a new breath of hope.

“Wow… The four gods from Brahman is opening the way for us…” Matcha Cookie smiled. “If I didn’t see this in person, I wouldn’t have believed it.”

“Hah… hah…” Xiao Tan gasped as he replied. “Could you… please… ha... not talk to me right now?”

“Just assume that I am talking to myself, is that so hard?” Matcha Cookie answered with a smile. The revenge from the emergency brake that Xiao Tan took earlier had been taken.

“Since you have cleared the path for me…” ROOT said as a light prism formed before her. “Then I shall take your offer.”

ROOT believed the machine would not be fast enough to evade her laser. Since her people had all been swept away, then why not destroy this super dangerous monster with one powerful sht.

“High energy reaction detected from ahead. Prediction is pure energy lazer attack.” Several seconds later, the driver seat of the robot rang out with this warning. The virtual panel Matcha Cookie controlled also popped up with the warning window.

“Oh? So it is a ‘turret’ type enemy.” Matcha Cookie said with an expression that said ‘I thought so’. Indeed when she saw ROOT’s fourth form, she had made that guess already.

“Bombardment is highly dependant on the player’s skill, watch and learn…” Matcha Cookie licked her lips. Her hands weaved in and out as she controlled the panel. The next second, the robot’s chest armor swiftly changed and a circular len that looked like a camera lens popped out.

“Synchronous proton cannon activated. Fireable at any moment.”

Hong

Pew

Two sound effect echoed and two energy blasts shot at the same time. ROOT’s lazer was not as fast as before because Golden Maggot No. 1’s cannon shot was heading right at the lazer.

With a pew…

The two blasts collided, it not only did not explode in showers of light but it dissolved into a warm and comforting wind. It dispersed without a trace.

“The preparation time is shorter than mine… but it is of the same power…” ROOT’s expression darkened. At that moment, the level 3 Anomalies who were swept away gathered again and rushed towards Golden Maggot Number 1. After all, they had more numbers and to force them to stay away for a long time was impossible.

“Come one and come all. It does not matter.” Matcha Cookie grinned. And like playing a piano, her fingers moved dexterously.

“Diffused Mines launcher activated.”

Many metallic tubes with mines flew out from the mini cannons on the machine’s shoulders. They cracked open and showered all over the ground. Instantly, the scene from Red Alert of a swept explosion was re-enacted.

The level 3 Anomalies were heavily injured, they had to stop moving and changed into a long-distance attack. That was unavoidable… as powerful as they were, they were not strong enough to fight a robot with their flesh bodies.

“Damn it…” ROOT hissed through her teeth. She knew she was in bad shape because her movement speed in her fourth form was very, very slow…

“Ha! This is easier than expected.” Matcha Cookie saw that they had reached 10 metres within the enemy and knew that victory was theirs. ????n????????????αd. ????om

“hah… hah… how is this easy…” Xiao Tan was panting like a dog with his tongue out.

“Ultimate, Lighting Flaming Tornado activated.”

“Just the name itself carries so many elements, is that even possible…” When using the robot’s best attack, even Match Cookie couldn’t help but comment on it. Golden Maggot Number 1 stopped before ROOT. It spread its legs and all the armors facing forward opened up and many cannon turrets poked out from within.

A ball of blue flames soared out in the shape of a tornado…

The giant snowflake was like an actual snow being held before a heat flow and it melted into a pool of metallic goo.

“Okay, now we only need to deal with the rest…” Matcha Cookie thought they had dealt with the final boss and said rather proudly. She planned to carry on this momentum and kill the rest.

But suddenly 23 not faraway shouted urgently. “Run!”

Thankfully her warning was heeded. Even though Matcha Cookie hadn’t reacted to it, Xiao Tan did. He pulled the two toggles downwards and that caused Golden Maggot Number 1 to jump into the air.

It was this jump that saved them.

A spider-web like metallic cage spread out to cover the location where the robot was. If Xiao Tan had been one second too slow, Golden Maggot Number 1 would be captured already.

ROOT in her third form was like a cocoon like creature. It was surrounded by a thick and viscous web-like substance and the main body was pulsating.

“My patience has reached its limit…” ROOT’s voice came from inside the cocoon. It sounded cooped up and coarse. “Can all of you please die already?”
