Number One Dungeon Supplier-Chapter 1497 Cleaning Up -Part 1
"What in the world did that Jin do?" Nie was flabbergasted by the Grey Bear's Squad actions as Old Fammet tried to recalibrate his monitors to the screen where they could see a tank in action.
The imagery was a little blurry because of its distance but they could see Jin was actively moving towards the tank without any fear once more. This time around he jumped upwards using the trees as pillars to support his leaps while the machine gunner was trying to catch him in his line of sight. Despite it being a Mechanoid, she was unable to quickly locate and adjust the machine gun's spray range onto Jin.
And then, it happened.
A visual slash of energy cut the tank and the Mechanoid machine gunner outside the tank into two. Secondary explosions from the intense cut forced the tank to explode once more even without a grenade at hand.
"Ha…haha…" The two Mecha Smiths could hear the abated laughing from the diagnostic table and it seemed like Tellie had woken up. "Apologies Captain. Looks like I took a nap without your permission." Tellie said out verbally even though she was telling it to everyone within the team.
This was because there were already cables attached to Tellie for diagnostic purposes and one of them was wired to her as audio.
"Do not worry. We are taking care of it. Just rest easy on the Mecha Smith's hands" Jin's audio was being played out loud as well.
"Yea, Just take a snooze, Tellie. You did great sniping a fighter jet off the sky. Perhaps, you are the first one in the world who could ever do that." Diaz said but her background was nosier with shots flying around her and she blasted back at the War Maidens that were terrorising the forest near Mount Sunn.
"Yinn is enjoying your role though." Click giggled through the intercom. "Perhaps she is jealous that you are able to take down a fighter jet this easily. She is venting her anger by aiming for all the helicarriers that were returning."
"Helicarriers?" Tellie was confused as she sat up and saw familiar faces and subsequently the bed she was lying on.
"Yeah. They brought tanks in and even though we have Javelins, we are not using them yet. You remember Jin was like buy a Javelin in case of a tank fight and we were like no wayyyyyy that was going to happen." Click exaggerated.
"And Diaz was like let's just buy one because we all know she just likes big guns although Yinn was afraid that the money Jin gave the bellboy to even ask him to order a Javelin was too much. Then here we are fighting against private corpo tanks. I guess."
"Concentrate Click. We have one more helicarrier. This is the last one, it will be tough." Yinn voiced over the intercom and Click turned her explanation mode into serious mode. "Tellie, since you are up. Take charge of the guiding system, I will do the necessary processing for manoeuvring. Sending you wirelessly."
"Roger," Tellie said and she fell to the table once more but her eyes were blank as the diagnostic console started to rack up a series of numbers which made Old Fammet light up with joy.
"Is the latest modern technology?" Old Fammet asked Nie and even though his apprentice was no longer in the scene, he was very sure that Mechanoids were able to do this at all.
"It is utilising my Royal Package Ten processing programming in a different way than I would expect it to be!" Old Fammet was on fire to see such a process going through live and felt that he finally hit the jackpot on the commander.
No matter what happens, he was going to get to the bottom of the truth of this and find out what made them tick this way. There got to be something that he was missing out on because he has never seen such seamless use of parallel processing among the Mechanoids before.
Perhaps, the answer to his wish in getting the ultimate War Maiden might lie with Jin. (Of course, that is very far fetched but right now, this was the vibe he was getting especially when he had never felt hope for the longest time ever.)
"Last tank for me as well," Jin said as he dash through the forests and remembered he still have a dagger with him. It was not the best use of Maqi since the blade was short and he needed more Maqi to condense the blade edge to make it longer and sharper but it would have to do because there was no way he was going to use the Cardinal's abilities on such easy targets.
And while Old Fammet was amazed by Tellie's wireless parallel processing with the other Grey Bears, Nie was taken back by the imagery he is seeing through the workshop cameras. He knew how old his master's workshop defences were and that missile even if he did not know the specs, could be seen as an item of the past.
There was no way for it to fly so far before it lost all its fuel trying to catch the helicarrier which was already accelerating compared to the other two which were ascending after dropping the tanks for battle.
But what he did not know was that it was why Yinn needed Tellie's help with the guiding. With that portion covered, Yinn was able to remote control the missile's onboard computer systems, maximising the optimisation of its output so that it could move at maximum speed while using the least required fuel.
Most missiles were never that optimised since their purpose was to follow the target and explode. Now that it had been controlled by not just two but three Mechanoids simultaneously, it was a miracle that they were in sync with each other to down the final helicarrier which blew Old Fammet's mind as well. (Nie was already gone past that stage)
"All clear," Jin said as the last tank had bit the dust though he didn't exactly destroy it but killed the Mecahnoids gunner and forcibly open the hatch to throw a flashbang before putting his hand in to gun all the Mechanoids down. (After all, he had chi sensing and knew where all of them were sitting.)
He did get a scratch and was shot twice by stray bullets but it was nothing his body could not handle. As for the others…
