The Ultimate Evolution
chapter-740

Detecting an imbecile delivering himself to die, a ring-shaped black barrel atop the robot's shoulder immediately targeted Sheyan and unloaded a wildfire.

Except, the killing potential of the weapon was also dependant on its target. Obviously, Mogensha would have to flee as far as possible, but to Sheyan, he dared to charge into the tempestuous rain of bullets; meeting his rival boldly with crazy vigor!

Although Sheyan was indeed capable of resisting a head on charge, he was honestly desiring to vent his frustration as well. Why So? It was because of Zi's provocative teasing based on his own phrase 'I can easily confront Zeus...' This was completely unrelated to boy girl relationships but purely human nature. It definitely wasn't a good feeling to be compared like that.

Sheyan endured the metallic storm as he charged into the blind angle of the robot, and finally pulled out his dreadful '+7 West' long saber. With a furious grunt, he stabbed in.

Oceanic blue brilliance glittered out as Sheyan's charging momentum was poured into the saber, before forcefully stabbing into the right arm of this warmachine.

Although this robot was crafted with prime materials and possessed incredibly fortified armour, it was impossible for the joints to be perfectly unbreakable. Sheyan's '+7 West' was recognized by the realm and undoubtedly surpassed the robot in sharpness. Sparks burst out as the saber stabbed in; one could even observe the internal components spilling chaotically, followed by clouds of smoke and flames.

The robot was just about to fire its main weapon cannon, but with its arm abruptly reduced to a dangling state, the cannon naturally slanted downwards.

Shuuah! A blue beam of unmatched blaze shot out and effortlessly smashed through a surrounding wall into smithereens. The beam continued shattering through the outer dark blue reinforced glass wall with a sonorous crash, and eventually struck a vehicle down in the public square below. Then, a tremendous explosion erupted which resulted in a horrifying ten metre plus deep pit!

"Oh? Just a commercial company and it actually possess a tool capable of such powerful destruction?"

Brother Black couldn't help but draw a breath of cold air. The degree of that attack could possibly threaten the life of a contestant.

Reef frowned and said.

"Probably a corporation that has ties with the military."

Sheyan dully refuted.

"Not possible, according to the information we gathered online, the Sando TeraTech Company is a subsidiary supported by the African Mozambique region, near the Indian ocean. We are currently located in North America. Although negotiations for a world government is underway in this world, the company shouldn't be involved with the military here. Would China allow an American firm to be a military enterprise in their country?"

"Still, this is a good thing. As they secretly possess such transcendent weaponry, regardless of how hard we press them, the Sando company definitely won't request aid from the government. Besides, we will at most cause infrastructure damage or information leakage, but the government investigations may cause the company to shut down!"

At this point, though test-subject 3 couldn't feel pain, it still rendered Sheyan as its greatest threat.

Its electric eyes flickered as countless blue snake currents jolted through its body. Those pressurizing snake currents wrapped around Sheyan's stabbed dagger, and electrocuted him till he shook uncontrollably.

With a rapid spin, the robot heavily smashed its left arm into Sheyan's left cheek!

Sheyan immediately felt his left cheek turning numb as a brittle fracturing sound rung in his ears. Evidently, an ordinary person would have his whole head blown up by this assault. Instead, Sheyan was only smashed flying as he heavily landed against the reinforced glass wall behind.

Crack! Countless cracks emerged along the glass, before it finally gave way.

Fortunately, his reaction was extremely fast. Although still slightly dazed, Sheyan quickly grabbed a steel rod of the building's exterior before he fell; the webbing of his fingers turned white as blood oozed out shortly after from the lacerations there.

Eeekk! Eeek! Cranking sounds emerged from the steel rod as it bent by half a foot downward. Bolts and screws twisted out and some even directly fell out. One could tell how mightily Sheyan was pulling.

Fortunately, his swaying body eventually settled and Sheyan avoided the unlucky fate of falling down the building. One must understand, this was a full 33 floors of altitude, even a contestant may perish from this fall!

Yet the robot remained viciously bent on eradicating him. Detecting the hanging presence of Sheyan, the ring-shaped cylinder on his shoulder automatically targeted over!

Another terrifying round of metallic storm was about to commence. Although Sheyan could withstand it, the steel rod it was holding onto absolutely couldn't and he would inevitably fall to his death.

Concurrently, Brother Black leapt up as Zi created a 'Force Wall Barrier' to support him. Brother Black then opened fire in mid-air. A bullet managed to pierce into the robot's eye, while the intense impact of the gunfire pushed the robot backwards. Amidst the barrage, one could observe sparks and embers engulfing the robot's head. Naturally, the robot lost its precision against Sheyan.

Sheyan obviously wouldn't dangle there foolishly. He endured a suffocating sensation as he swung himself back into the building, before immediately burrowing his head and charging forth. Like a rugby player, he slammed into the robot's waist with his shoulders.

The robot moved with its caterpillar tracks. Thus, after stopping by the edge of the stairs to assault Sheyan, it immediately lost balance when Sheyan came slamming in.

The robot tumbled down the stairs clamorously as black fumes continued leaking out from its dents and joints. With its caterpillar tracks facing skywards, it was now caught in an incomparably awkward predicament.

After battling for mere seconds, Sheyan managed to exploit the biggest weakness of this robot, causing even Zi to secretly admire his observational prowess.

Slumped to the ground like a beaten down dog, the gang of four combined and ravaged the robot for a full minute. Soon after, the electric eyes of this Test-subject 3 dimmed and eventually turned dark.

Eventually, the robot exploded with a thunderous boom as thick black fumes pervaded into the air. Screws and electric components were spilled all over the ground.

Yet, this explosion ejected a greasy equipment as well.

[ Greasy Clothlump ]

[ Origin: Any modernized world ]

[ Rarity: Black ]

[ Equipment type: Cape ]

[ Material: Cotton, oil, dust and horcrux slot ]

[ Addons: nil ]

[ Weight: 4.34 kg ]

[ Equipment usage requirement: Physique greater than 10 points ]

[ Durability: 50 points ]

[ Property: Strength +4 / Physique +4 ]

[ Property: Creates a 2% chance of avoiding your opponent's attack, due to the evasive oiliness of the 'Greasy Clothlump' ]

[ Passive ability: Drytwist – when your opponent attacks you, there is a chance the filthy grease of this lump of cloth will squirt onto the opponent's face. Causes a 2 seconds blindness (only if the target get be blinded). In a state of blindness, your vision increases by 50% ]

[ Property: When receiving a fire element attack, damage received will be raised by 33% ]

[ Property: The awful stench and disastrous sloppy look of this cape will foil your image, lowering charm by 3 points ]

[ Description: A horcrux can be infused into this cape. Heavens, what kind of devilish and exotic horcrux can convert this into a special item? ]

Brother Black and Reef expressed disgust towards it, thus, Sheyan stored it in his storage. Actually, his military rank awarded him a new privilege. Under the status of an ordinary contestant, he will be able to forcibly suppress his own attributes and prevent the sudden 50 points boundary breakthrough. Hence, right now, he didn't have to face the awkward predicament of taking off his equipments.

This was truly a wondrous advantage. Bear this in mind, although one's personal attributes were suppressed, the properties of the equipment would remain effective. Such was the enviable prestige of an official Major rank.

Following that, the contestant quartet continued advancing. Along the way, they encountered Test-subject 1 and Test-subject 2. Furthemore, this time, the robots were supported with 20 plus fully armed guards. The capabilities of the three Test-subjects were fundamentally similar but possessed certain different special abilities.

Test-subject 1 didn't possess that dual-handed energy cannon ability. Instead, both its arms could transform into over 10 metres long feelers that resembled Japanese Creepers. Those feelers whipped around crazily within the stairways, absorbing life force wherever those unbreakable feelers landed. Thus, one guard became the victim of friendly fire and was ultimately reduced into a meat paste.

According to Sheyan's deduction, Test-subject 1 was clearly created to combat aerial dinosaurs. Once a Pterosaur swoops down, those feelers will inevitably constrict them and prevent them from flying away.
