Chapter 162: Crap?!
Chapter 162 – Crap?!
Boom!
Boom, boom, boom…
As Chen Yu became more proficient at operating the Type-K Beast Armor, he also started running faster.
Moreover, aside from running, he could even jump. Only, half the armor would end up sinking into the ground after the jump.
Chen Yu had enjoyed watching Ultraman when he was a child. Now, he finally understood how much destruction a fight between behemoths weighing tens of thousands of tons could cause. There wouldn’t be a need for any special beam attacks. Just the tremors they caused could destroy an entire city.
At this time, several dozen helicopters carrying missiles approached from the front. They hovered around the metal T-rex like a bunch of “flies.”
Boom!
Chen Yu halted his footsteps inside the petri dish. He then reached to his left to press on a virtual button, which allowed him to transmit his voice outside of the armor.
“Do you have business with me?”
In response, two helicopters flying in the center of the array each unfurled a white cloth underneath them. Each piece of the fabric also had a Chinese character written in black on them.
To·kyo!
“Tokyo’s ahead?”
Realization dawned upon Chen Yu. He then fell into thought.
Tokyo had a massive population. Tourists from all over the world were gathered there. If he approached the city in the beast armor and allowed the city’s tens of millions of people to become “witnesses,” there was no way the various governments would be able to continue suppressing information on him.
He would instantly become a global sensation.
This was not in his long-term interests.
Thinking up to this point, Chen Yu turned the T-rex around and walked in a different direction.
Boom, boom… Boom.
However, after just taking a few steps, Chen Yu stopped once more. He then turned toward the helicopters following him and shouted, “Roll away!”[1]
“Roll away…”
“Roll away…”
“Away…”
Inside the commanding helicopter, the pilot asked with a dazed look, “What is he saying?”
“Very standard Mandarin,” the translator said while pushing against his glasses.
“What does it mean?”
“He’s telling us not to follow him.”
“Is that so? How polite of him.” The pilot nodded. He then picked up the communicator hanging under the dashboard and issued an order, “All units retreat. I repeat, all units retreat.”
Afterward, the pilot disconnected the call and turned the helicopter’s nose around.
His superiors had ordered him to not enter conflict with the other party under any circumstances. If the other party wished for them to scram, then they should flee as fast as possible.
Meanwhile, upon seeing that the “flies” were leaving, the metal T-rex resumed its advance. And while leaving behind many cracked lands, the T-rex eventually arrived at an uninhabited mountain area.
“This place will do.”
After halting his advance, Chen Yu straightened his body and faced the camera, allowing his audience to get a clear look at his figure inside the petri dish.
“According to the tutorial, we know that this armor has three modes of operation. The first mode is the deterrence mode, which is the mode everyone is looking at right now. It is mainly used for deterrence and ease of movement across various terrains.
“The second mode is the combat mode. Upon entering this mode, the T-rex will change into an attack form suitable for the battlefield, thereby increasing its killing and destructive power.
“The third mode is the construction mode. In this mode, the T-rex will help allied units dig foundations. It is also capable of constructing temporary sites for holding prisoners and storage.
“Let’s first test the second mode.”
Under Chen Yu’s manipulation, the purple light released into the petri dish suddenly turned red. The deafening sound of hydraulic rods and gears interacting with each other also appeared.
Clack, clack, clack…
The T-rex’s head folded into an opening on its upper body. The machine’s sturdy feet also bent down and contracted. Subsequently, two spherical objects emerged from the T-rex’s “kneecaps” and pressed against the ground.
As for the T-rex’s tail, rows of razor-sharp blades emerged all over it, the edges giving off a cold glint as they reflected the sun’s light.
[This thing can actually transform?!]
[Of all the things it could transform to, it chose to turn into a floor-sweeping robot…]
[Such armor has no soul.]
[I really pity Japan. Despite not having provoked anyone, a Godzilla suddenly popped up in it.]
[They can still count on Ultraman to slay UP.]
[Look to the west! Fighter jets! Crap! There are over a dozen fighter jets! Are they really trying to bomb the host?!]
Just as the beast armor was undergoing its transformation, over a dozen armed fighter jets suddenly flew over from a distance!
The narrow fuselage and tail flames fully demonstrated the military power of modern humans.
Inside the beast armor’s control room, Chen Yu was also made aware of the approach of flying units through the operating system’s warning. However, he paid no heed to the warning at all.
Aside from high-yield nuclear weapons, there were no other weapons in 2020 capable of damaging this armor…
Whoosh—
Amidst the observation of numerous aircrafts, the Type-K Beast Armor took a total of 45 seconds to complete its transformation. At the end of the process, the originally 130-meter-tall metal T-rex had transformed into a flat machine that resembled modern times’ vacuum robots!
However, although the beast armor’s height had shrunk, its flattened body and sharp tail now combined to give it an astonishing horizontal length of 300 meters.
Meanwhile, due to the armor’s transformation, the command center’s curved glass no longer provided a view on the outside. Instead, it now functioned as a screen that displayed the armor’s surrounding environment.
“Unlike everyone else, I don’t have a good view of the armor’s transformed state. However, I can still guess what kind of state the armor is currently in,” Chen Yu said with a steady voice. “Well, let’s not waste time on words. We’ll launch an attack right here to see how this 24th-century killing machine performs and how it operates.”
After saying so, Chen Yu decisively pushed down on the red physical button above his head.
Click!
Along with a crisp sound, the liquid surrounding Chen Yu started swirling.
Meanwhile, on the machine’s outside, the bladed tail started slowly rotating clockwise around the main body.
Whoosh.
Whoosh.
Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh—
The tail’s rotation grew increasingly faster. In just a few seconds, its speed had surpassed the limits of what the human eye could see. And when subjected to this bladed tail’s speed and power, the surrounding hills were instantly demolished!
Whoosh, whoosh—
Half a minute later, the tail’s rotation reached its limits. From afar, the beast armor basically looked like a 300-meter-diameter disc right now.
[Isn’t this a little too much…]
[What? Too much fun for you to handle?]
[This! Is! Maddening!]
[Isn’t this a goddamned meat grinder?]
[Why did humans invent such a terrifying weapon?]
[If this thing is unleashed in a city, there definitely won’t be any survivors.]
[What kind of brain is needed to design such a thing?]
[This is the high-tech version of Blade Storm!]
[I’m curious to find out what the small impact array formed by 50 of these machines would look like.]
[Maybe they’ll merge with each other to form a 15,000-meter meat grinder…]
[Excellent. Just one rotation and the whole continent will disappear.]
[Exciting!]
[Future humans are crazy…]
Inside the petri dish, Chen Yu tentatively attempted to take a step forward.
Boom! Boom! Boom!
Half of the mountain in front of him instantly got shaved away!
When Chen Yu took another step forward, the whole mountain got shaved away…
“Crap!” Hugging his head, Chen Yu said, “This weapon is a little insane!”
After remaining in shock for some time, Chen Yu thought to halt this crazy attack form. However, before he did so, a white button at the corner of his vision caught his attention.
“What’s this? Why didn’t the tutorial mention anything about this?”
He was confident that before entering combat mode, this white button did not exist.
“Is it for emergency braking?”
Frowning, Chen Yu reached out and pushed the button.
Click.
The instant the button sank into its socket, Chen Yu immediately felt a sense of weightlessness!
Buzz—
Simultaneously, the livestream’s 2.4 million viewers and Earth’s various government officials gaped in shock.
Currently, under the propulsion of the surrounding airflow and the flames spewing out of its bottom, the “meatgrinder” gradually lifted into the air…
The Type-K Beast Armor was flying…
“Crap! It can fly as well?!” Chen Yu was startled.
[Crap! It can fly as well?!]
[Crap! It can fly as well?!]
[Crap! It can fly as well?!]
“Crap! It can fly?!”
The pilots of the fighter jets also yelled out in unison. And without hesitation, every one of them turned their jets around and fled…
