Number One Dungeon Supplier



"No, but we can get one from Diamondz Corp for free, right?" Diaz said once more and Yin repeatedly said that the Diamondz Corp Office might have been compromised and getting a Mechanoid from them would raise eye brows.

"Maybe if Mr Eggy is here, the Parry City Soldiers might not be such assholes?" Tellie queried and Yinn begged to differ. 

"It might make the situation even more volatile as Mr. Eggy would not be able to use his credentials here. It's like flaying around your crown when everyone in that particular empire does not even recognise you for that matter. Not the greatest example, but you get my point." 

"Then what if Mr Eggy comes by tomorrow to deliver the goods?" Lynn asked but Yinn felt that it would be better if they could make the hound tonight and check the site as soon as possible before the trial gets even colder or the environment destroys the evidence.

"Alternatively, we each could sacrifice one part of our body to get the Mechanical hound to work. I mean, we definitely can buy a few spare parts to lessen the sacrifice, that should not be a problem, right? After all, we are from different manufacturers and not just Diamondz." Tellie recommended and it sounded like it was one of the better options their squad could think of."

"Well then where are we going to meet? We can't possibly return to our hotels with all these spare parts. Not to mention, not exactly the quietest thing I could do when invoking a Mechanical hound" Click said and Lynn found it confusing.

"Why can't we just do all this fusing in the four wheel drive? And tried to act like normal persistent investigators?" Lynn questioned and that was when Yinn realised that the most dangerous place to do things might be the safest place as well.

"So you are saying we get together, drive out of the city area to fuse the Mechanical Hound within the car and if we hit a roadblock, the mechanical hound goes out and we return to the city?" 

"Something like this? That way the mechanical hound can save some power and we would avoid being detected by the Parry City soldiers. It's not like we are being followed, right? If we are then perhaps, we have to do something more brazen." 

"Last I check, there isn't anyone following me." The Grey Bears did a quick scan with the help of the System and there was indeed no one following them. A good relief which they believed they bugged only the hotel and possibly Diamondz Corps Office.

Thus, they quickly gathered the parts they needed for the Mechanical Hound and Click decided to be more brazen as she bought more stuff considering her class as a combat engineer. The rest also did their part with the exception of Diaz who had been ordered not to get anything from Diamondz stores. 

After which, Yinn got their four wheel drive up and drove to different parts of the city to pick the rest of the Grey Bear Squads where Click had already started to fuse the parts together so they could create the Mechanical Hound. Thus, they drove around the city for a while before moving out of it until the System told them there was a roadblock ahead. An upgrade card suddenly appeared in Yinn's possession and it was the module of invisibility. 

She knew that the System was also aiding them but she still had no idea what her specialised class would be. For now, she took the card and used it on the mechanical dog so that when they were asked to come out of the roadblock to be searched, the dog could quietly pounce away from the scene and start to move to the investigation site.

Diaz purposely opened the door wide so that the Mechanical Hound could move out as slowly and quietly as possible. Diaz then shouted some vulgarities at them for being such assholes to the representative of Diamondz Corp and they decided to put a bit of pressure on them asking for their IDs and stuff, wasting time so that the roadblock would have less man guarding it, allowing the dog to move unhindered through the roadblock and into the wilderness.

Even Tellie's whose personality was to keep quiet and to see how things unfold had decided to join in the fun for the first time. Everyone was surprised that Tellie spoke up for Diaz when she was pinned down for a search. The rest subsequently shouted as well to create as much distraction as possible.

Only after they knew that the Mechanical hound had already moved quite a fair distance from the roadblock, Diaz decided to cooperate and they were thankful that they had only been turned away and the guards did not send for reinforcements to aid with the situation. 

Maybe, they knew that they were 'esteemed' guests and the roadblock was meant to not allow their guests to try anything funny. This could be a win for those who were trying all they could to block the efforts of the investigators and hoped that they could return without much information on their hands. 

Of course, that would be the best outcome but seeing this roadblock had thwarted the Grey Bear's efforts, they assumed that the Grey Bears would still be persistent for a little while longer before they returned. 

And they would be. Considering now that they have a mechanical hound which had also been infused with the scanners that they brought with them. All it had to do was to reach the incident site safely and search for any incriminating evidence that Parry City wanted to hide and search for the truth whether the Crystal Dragon existed or it was a cry for help from somebody. 

Either way, it is too suspicious for them to leave it alone. The more they wish to hide something, the more they wants to get the bottom of it. That was the mistake they made and they would regret making.
