The Ultimate Evolution

Chapter 1017: T-910

Dolittle nodded.

“It’s very likely.”

Sheyan mumbled distractedly, “In that case, I predict that a TOK715 will probably make an appearance during the fight later to collect information. If possible, I hope you can try looking for the TOK715.”

Dolittle replied with his brows furrowed, “It’ll be hard, unless the TOK715 maintains data-sharing connections with the Terminators in the fight for a prolonged period of time; but I’ll try my best.”

Sheyan nodded. He then turned to his grown creature (TL: Which was still alive apparently) and passed down an order.

“Stay here and protect Mr. Dolittle.”

The monster quietly blended into the darkness after receiving the order.

Sheyan walked out at that moment because he could already see some long, twisted and violent electrical currents breaking through the sky! The electrical currents jumped around wildly like living snakes, and then intertwined together!

In order to hide themselves from public eyes, the base that Party Ace and Dolittle had chosen was in a relatively desolate industrial area. The industrial area could also provide ample electrical supply for Dolittle’s experiments. Besides the workers on night shifts, there was almost no one in the area at the moment. Otherwise, the appearance of the Terminators would surely cause widespread panic.

“Come on,” Sheyan folded his hands in front of his chest and said in a cynical tone to the slowly forming time displacement sphere, “I’m really looking forward to seeing you guys again.”

According to the plan they came up with, Reef and Sheyan would each take a Terminator on their own. Their task was simple — to stall for time.

Zi, Mogensha and Sanzi would work together to finish the remaining Terminator as fast as they could, then rush over to support the two MTs. Sanzi’s Anaconda had rather decent defence so it should have no problem tanking a Terminator on its own.

The plan means that Sheyan needed to face a Terminator on his own without any support for a certain period of time.

It did not take long for a Terminator to appear from the sphere. It was naked all over and, when it appeared, it was half-squatting on the ground like the famous work of the great artist Auguste Rodin, The Thinker. The Terminator might seem like it was posing for a photograph, but it actually did that to reduce the size of its body as much as possible while it traveled through the space-time wormhole, so as to save on energy consumption.

The Terminator’s face was very ordinary-looking; it’s just that the outline and contour of his face did not look articial at all. Besides having no facial expression whatsoever and the scary red light shining in his electronic eyes which gave of a cruel, merciless and ruthless vibe, it looked no different from an ordinary human being!

Sheyan’s helmet initially came with a probing ability, but because the helmet was acquired at a relatively low level, its probing capability had gradually lost its effectiveness over time. But this time, thanks to Dolittle’s help, Sheyan managed to obtain some information on the Terminator using the probing ability:

It was immediately obvious to Sheyan that this Terminator model was much stronger than its predecessors, as could be seen from its built-in offensive and defensive weapons.

After the Terminator stepped out of the time displacement sphere, it just stood there unmoving. The red light in its eyes continuously flashed like a hard drive activity light does when a computer retrieves data. An antenna-like object extended out of its ear hole. The Terminator seemed to be receiving some sort of signal with it.

The Terminator’s action caught Sheyan’s attention, but he decided to stand back and observe first. The T-910 had never appeared before; it should be the most advanced model among the conventional Terminators (all Terminator models requiring liquid alloy technology could not be mass produced, so they were referred to as unconventional Terminators).

The whole process of receiving signal lasted for about five seconds. Then, the Terminator started taking large steps forward, only to find the annoying pest that was Sheyan standing in its way.

The dark surroundings was no obstacle to the T-910. In the Terminator’s bright red vision, a circle similar to an aiming indicator had locked-on to Sheyan, after which a list of numbers popped up. The final result of the investigation was that Sheyan’s threat value was a lowly 5.

For the Terminator, creatures of this threat value belonged to the category of things not worth wasting its energy on. The Terminator may step on him if he happened to be in the way, but it would not go out of its way to deal with him. Normally, only enemies wielding a taser gun would have a threat value of more than 100.

So this T-910 placed Sheyan on the list of “enemies that can be easily killed”. It’s CPU provided two solutions to deal with Sheyan – either to walk past him or to step over his dead body. However, this time, the Terminator was doomed to pay a heavy price for “judging a book by its cover”!

When the T-910 walked past Sheyan, Sheyan grabbed its arm while simultaneously placing a foot forward to pin his left foot to the Terminator’s right. This was actually a fairly simple grappling technique. In a lot of movies, this was how the police would often arrest suspects.

Sheyan immediately pushed the T-910’s mechanical arm back against its joint. Against a normal person, this move would have definitely subdued the enemy, but what Sheyan did not take into account was that the T-910’s joint could actually bend freely forward and backward! The Terminator did not resist Sheyan’s force which pushed its arm backward, and instead borrowed the momentum to land a literal iron fist on Sheyan’s face.

This punch caused Sheyan to see stars. Blood flowed freely out of his nose. Fortunately, he was quick to react. He let himself fall to the ground after the punch and in the process, hooked the Terminator’s ankle with his toes.

It so happened that the robot was trying to follow up with its next attack. It had just lifted its left foot, looking to trample on Sheyan’s head, when its right pivot foot was swept by Sheyan. It lost its balance and fell heavily to the ground.

The Terminator struggled to get up but Sheyan had already grabbed its hair and then smashed its face into the cement stairs next to them.

If any onlookers were watching the fight, they would surely be horrified at the way that the assailant was completely treating the enemy’s head like a walnut that was intended to be cracked open!

According to Dolittle, a Terminator’s head was one of its weaknesses. A violent tremor of the head could cause the microchip inside to shake, thus stunning the Terminator. That’s why Sheyan was so ferocious on the T-910’s head.

The cement staircase was crushed into pieces, revealing the broken red bricks inside, after the Terminator’s head was bashed on it a few times.

A large piece of stainless steel skull, smooth and shiny, showed through the damaged skin on the T-910’s head. The surprising thing was that, on the Terminator’s cranium, there was a piece of transparent plastic the size of a fingernail. Through the plastic, he could clearly see the various interlaced circuits inside its head. He even saw some pink matter which looked suspiciously like the organic tissue of a brain!

“W…What is this?” Sheyan silently exclaimed in shock, “A combination of flesh and machine?”

The temporary pause caused him to lose his hold on the struggling Terminator. All the joints on the steel monster could bend in both directions, giving it extreme flexibility. It kicked Sheyan’s lower abdomen and sent him flying two to three meters high above the ground.

Sheyan groaned in agony. He forced himself to endure the pain as he grabbed a tree branch above him, then somersaulted away from the enemy’s pursuit.

Seeing that it had lost its chance to follow up with another attack, the Terminator did not mindlessly charged in pursuit. Instead, it stood back up and pried open its abdomen. It performed the action with such ease that it looked as natural as an ordinary person opening the door of a cabinet. And yet, in Sheyan’s eyes, it looked almost as if the Terminator was committing seppuku.

When the Terminator retrieved from inside its stomach a rhombus shield and an ordinary-looking dagger, Sheyan instantly knew things were about to get serious.

Although the shield was small, it was tailored to fit snugly on the arm of the T-910, giving off a really sturdy feel. As for the dagger, it constantly emitted a buzzing noise in the Terminator’s hand. Its edges were foggy and blurred. That was the indication that the high-frequency vibration function had been activated!

According to the information Dolittle gave them, so long as the high-frequency slicing weapon was given enough time, there was nothing it could not cut!
