Number One Dungeon Supplier



"This was a sight for fantasy." Click said to herself as she unknowingly stayed stunned for the period of time Tellie was shooting out shots of fire and lightning from her rifle. "It was no wonder she said she needed those barrels as soon as possible." Click checked her backpack and gave a firm little shake before one of the side pockets opened up by itself and revealed a finished product. 

Just as there was calm in the battlefield for that few seconds, Click shouted at Tellie as she threw the metal stick towards her direction. It swung violently at Tellie but the Grey Bear's Sniper picked it up with ease before pressing a release catch on her Barret rifle to allow the half molten barrel piece to fall off and switch in a new one. Although the gun was a tad hot to touch, the rifle barrel fit perfectly into it with a snappy click. 

And just as that quiet moment was the calm before the storm, a huge roar ensued throughout the entire cafeteria even though it was supposed to come out from the floor below. And suddenly a mechanoid jumped out of the sturdy small hole, tearing it into a bigger one and revealing itself to be a Beast Mechanoid instead of an insectoid. 

A Gorilla Mechanoid. 

If anything, this was already several times bigger than the insectoid Mechanoids they had been fighting and the latter was already a few sizes larger than the humanoids. "First insects and now a Gorilla? What do we have next? A Dinosaur!?" Click said as she knew that her assault rifle drones would be turned into metal dust as the battles goes on. There was no way her puny bullets would be doing much damage to a mecha frame as big as the Gorilla one. 

However, the moment it revealed itself, it did not move to kill and instead showed its dominance on the battlefield but hitting its chest. And if there was one thing to take away from this self boast, the metal plates were no doubt sturdy enough to withstand any kind of bullets. And as if it was not enough of a demonstration, the Gorilla Mechanoid took one of the dead scorpion Mechanoids' tails to hold before smashing it on its chest to prove the point. Those sharp pointed edges of metal were broken even further into smaller pieces, causing more dread for the two Mechanoids who were in the vicinity. 

And if that pumping of the chest was not enough to prove the point, the Mechanoids could already feel the subsonic vibrations from the pounding. From the spectator's point of view, it did not look like much, but those vibrations were actually causing the Mechanoids to move a sub millisecond slower as if it was some weakening debuff that the Gorilla Mechanoid was deploying.

You must be kidding me..." Click sighed as she still took time to process the reality that was in front of her. Thankfully with all the absurdity that Jin had brought them through, it did not take long for Click and Tellie to reorganise her thoughts.  There were several ways to do this but a number of them involved the death of the two Mechanoids which defeated the command that Jin had given them before they crash landed into Diamondz Headquarters.

"Survive no matter what. No matter how disgraceful it is."

And now this was one of the situations where they knew this was a battle that they could not win especially when Jin was incapacitated. But it was because Jin was currently unable to move, the priority of their commander became number one instead of the order that had been given to him. After all, if the commander could not survive, what was the use of the order?

So, despite the current odds against them, they just need to make sure that they survive long enough to come out alive with their commander still breathing. This was a drastic change in attitude for the Mechanoids who had been dejected, discarded and being used as mere fodder by their previous 'Jin'. Surely, they were put into circumstances that they would never have thought Mechanoids like themselves could ever accomplish. Fighting against a town of rebel Mechanoids with just a squad? That was practically unheard of unless you were elite of the elites. 

And if that was not enough, defending the monstrous waves of Mechanoids and heavy equipment had proven to them that they were fighting against the impossible time and time again. When they recapped how the obstacles they had overcome previously, this Gorilla Mechanoid seem to pale in difficulty in comparison. 

Not to mention, they had the tactical System with them and Jin had given them access to do whatever they need to in order to win and survive the day. Tellie had already used the authority given to the Mechanoids and she was rewarded with kills that it was nigh possible without Jin commanding them. This was the exact situation with the exception that Tellie had exhausted her power supply and required some time to do the very same once more. 

Therefore, it boiled down to Click to salvage the situation and shouldering such a big responsibility to keep her squad mates alive was something that she personally did not experience before. This was because her powers were always meant for support as it was always Yinn and Diaz who were in the frontlines to seize the day.

To top it off the pressure, the combat engineer Mechanoid also knew that it was partially her fault for not checking the System thoroughly before attempting to hack. Yet, fear did not overcome her as such an emotion does not exist in them despite the 'feelings' of responsibilities. 

Right now with Tellie and Jin who were partially immobilised due to their condition, Click had to do whatever it takes to distract the Gorilla. But as the tasks were still calculating in her head, a police helicopter came into sight outside Diamondz headquarters which she felt was an opportune timing for her to test something new as well.
