Chapter 112
[Escort mode activated!]
The Automaton Soldier guarding the base scanned the enemies present, immediately identified them as enemies, and launched a powerful attack.
The attack power, comparable to that of a level two or three Danger Beasts, was enough to instantly turn these people into a mass of flesh and blood.
A large number of cyborgs were killed, and the other cyborgs quickly pulled out their modified mechanical weapons.
"Counterattack! Counterattack immediately!"
"For the fashionable adults!"
The modified people roared, clearly insane, as they ripped off their own arms, revealing gun barrels hidden within their flesh.
These are Dr. Fashion's modification techniques, which combine their bodies with gun-like machinery.
However, they were just the most basic cyborgs, equipped with ordinary guns and cannons, and their lifespans were almost over.
The cyborg locked numerous gun barrels from its body onto the Automaton Soldier and began its counterattack.
However, the power was not enough to have much effect on the steel-bodied Mechanical Construct. Only some cyborgs with modified cannons could affect a portion of the Automaton Soldier.
Even so, the appearance of Mechanical Construct resembling a traffic light rendered their attacks ineffective.
[Defense field activated!]
As a dozen or so Automaton "Beetle" appeared simultaneously and deployed a defensive force field, the force field enveloped all the Mechanical Construct within a certain range. The bullets and shells fired by the modified humans struck the force field, but they could not break through the defense at all.
What exactly is going on with these machines?
"Why are there so many strange alchemy machines at the Night Raid base? That's not fashionable at all."
On the hillside, Dr. Fashion looked at the suddenly appearing Mechanical Construct with a very grim expression! This was something he had not expected at all.
In his mind, the targets were just a few assassins, at most a dozen or twenty.
Such a large number of powerful alchemical vessels is truly unexpected.
Their cyborg subordinates haven't even encountered the Night Raid members yet, and so many casualties have already occurred. Although these ordinary cyborgs are just cannon fodder and defective products, and their sacrifice isn't a big deal, they can't be wasted like this!
They were all surprises prepared for the Night Raid assassins...
"Fashionable adults, they seem unable to break through that mechanical defense."
Dr. Fashion's "eyes," observing the situation ahead, hesitated before offering a reminder.
"Do you need to tell me?!"
Dr. Fashion calmly glanced at the "eye" beside him, which immediately frightened the person into silence.
Fortunately, Dr. Fashion didn't suggest doing anything at this time; he simply focused on the front again, frowning in thought.
That's some kind of defensive force field...
"Since ordinary attacks won't work, let's self-destruct."
"Hahaha, do you think you can defend against this?!"
Although it felt a bit wasteful to use the preparations meant for dealing with the Night Raid raiders on these Mechanical Construct, there was no time to hesitate at this point.
More important are the works he cares about most.
Those are incomparable to these defective products.
Seeing the figures that had already infiltrated the base, Dr. Fashion felt much better.
As long as they complete the task, it will be the same.
Under Dr. Fashion's orders, the cyborgs, finding that the defensive force field could not be breached and that these Mechanical Construct were still approaching them, immediately chose to self-destruct at the last moment, taking everyone down with them.
These were carried out
Cyborgs who have been modified with firearms all have an unstable bomb inside them.
Numerous explosions rang out here, and the dark night suddenly became bright, the light from the explosions illuminating everything around.
Dr. Fashion seemed very happy to see the explosive art before him.
This is his work; even the most substandard, flawed product can cause powerful enemies to perish together with them.
How could this not be delightful!
However, after the self-destruction ended, Dr. Fashion's face instantly darkened.
Such a huge explosion, yet it didn't break that strange force field? Are you kidding me!
That wasn't the end of it. After withstanding the self-destruction of those cyborgs, a large number of spider-like Mechanical Construct quickly crawled out of the force field.
They were incredibly fast; in the blink of an eye, they each climbed to the side of the surviving Danger Beast cyborgs.
Dr. Fashion noticed this scene, paused for a moment, and was not quite sure what these robots were capable of.
However, when he saw these simple robots flashing an abnormal light as they approached his Danger Beast modified unit, his experience told him something instantly.
"No, no!"
"Get away from those Alchemical Machine quickly."
Dr. Fashion not only possesses extremely high experience in the human body and biology, but also holds doctoral-level expertise in mechanics and alchemy.
They are even comparable to some PhDs in science fiction; they can understand the general situation at a glance with these basic common sense facts.
However, his words came too late. Before the cyborgs could react, the simple Self-Destruct Robot exploded.
Its power was no less than that of his self-destructing cyborgs; the flames of the explosion instantly engulfed the surrounding cyborgs.
After these cyborgs died, a large amount of toxins spread from their bodies. These toxins, which were originally important for dealing with Imperial Arms users, had no effect on Mechanical Construct.
It was all wasted...
"Damn it! How could this happen?!"
Dr. Fashion scratched his hair hard. These toxins were something he had worked hard to develop, enough to render Special Class Danger Beast incapable of fighting.
However, this only applies to biological enemies; it is completely ineffective against mechanical enemies.
He couldn't understand how the assassin organization's base could contain so many Mechanical Construct he had never even heard of before; it didn't make sense.
It's impossible for anyone in the Empire to possess such Alchemical Machine technology.
He had even come into contact with most of the alchemists in Western countries, so it was impossible for so many to exist. How could an assassin organization possess them?
However, Dr. Fashion had no time to think about these things at this moment, because after clearing out his fashion army, those Mechanical Construct were heading in his direction.
"You guys, stop them for me."
Seeing these Mechanical Construct heading towards him, Dr. Fashion took a few steps back and gave orders to the cyborgs around him.
These cyborgs' bodies were modified to be even more perfect, making them one of his most satisfying works. Even when facing Teigu users... Dr. Fashion didn't think they would be much worse off.
That's enough to delay things for a while.
"Yes, fashionista."
Upon hearing this, the group was somewhat taken aback by the sheer number of Mechanical Construct, but they dared not disobey Dr. Fashion's orders.
Their bodies were all personally modified by Dr. Fashion, so how could there not be some underhanded methods involved? Dr. Fashion could kill them at any time if he wanted them dead.
Suppressing their fear, the group drew their weapons and charged forward the moment the Mechanical Construct approached, buying Dr. Fashion time to escape.
"Come on! Let's see whose defense is stronger."
As the Mechanical Construct approached, one of the larger men charged forward and punched one of Mechanical Construct.
The Mechanical Construct, made entirely of steel, was flattened by his single punch.
At that moment, an Automaton "Beetle" charged toward him, and he, not to be outdone, rammed into it in return.
The collision produced a loud, ear-piercing sound, and the cyborg actually withstood the beetle's charge.
His body was perfectly modified by Dr. Fashion, giving him defensive capabilities comparable to Special Class Danger Beast, and his strength was also astonishing.
Seeing that he had gained the upper hand in the contest of strength with the beetle, the big guy's confidence swelled up, and he directly confronted several Mechanical Construct at the same time.
But just as he was about to violently dismantle the Mechanical Construct in front of him, the Mechanical Construct around him quickly moved away from him.
Before the big guy could react, he thought the robots were afraid of him.
It wasn't until a companion reminded him that he realized what was happening.
"Watch out above!"
"Get out of the way!"
Upon hearing the sound, the big guy instinctively looked up, and a gigantic steel giant crashed down on him like a steel meteor.
It's the even heavier Armored Mech Grizzly!
Then, this big guy, whether due to some kind of brain malfunction caused by the modification or something else, saw the grizzly bear descending from the sky. Instead of dodging, he stretched out his legs and raised his hands, preparing to take down the Armored Mech Grizzly.
The moment the Armored Mech Grizzly crashed down, the terrifying force caused him to sink instantly, and the ground collapsed.
The physical pain did not affect him. The big guy gritted his teeth and tried to hold on, but his body simply could not withstand it. The moment he came into contact with the Armored Mech Grizzly, both of his arms were shattered.
Then his entire body was compressed tightly, and he was finally crushed to death under the steel fat man.
Seeing the giant die, the other modified humans felt a sinking feeling in their hearts. They already had no chance of winning, and now this only accelerated their defeat.
Sure enough, the grizzly bear that had crushed the giant turned its attention to the other cyborgs, then went into overload mode, its body filled with destructive heat, and charged forward with its heavy body.
These cyborgs are definitely not weak; they can even fight against most Teigu users. However, now that they are surrounded by a large number of Mechanical Construct and are constantly attacked by grizzly bears, they will soon be unable to hold on.
The defensive force field of the Automaton "Beetle" and the healing glow of the warhound ensured that the surrounding robots would not suffer any damage.
Instead, their injuries worsened, and they were eventually killed by the grizzly bear.
At this point, almost all of Dr. Fashion's cyborg unit was wiped out.
But this does not mean the end; the battle has only just begun. With such a commotion, how could the Security Forces conducting a thorough search not have noticed?
At this moment, the Security Forces personnel and the Imperial Arms users of the "Jaegers" had appeared in the distance and were about to arrive.
However, at the same time, another group of Automaton Soldier and simple robots had already assembled elsewhere, waiting for the arrival of the Security Forces. A large-scale defensive operation was about to begin...
Meanwhile, inside the base during the Night Raid, the cyborgs who had infiltrated also encountered an unexpected situation.
There's actually no one left inside Night Raid now, except for some powerful Automaton Soldier left behind by Clara.
That is, [Automaton Soldier - Tooth Wolf].
Chapter 51 The Battle Between Kurome and Akame
After learning of the large number of invaders, the Night Raid team had already begun their battle plan.
Then everyone chose to leave the base, not intending to fight inside it, except for Clara who left behind some powerful Automaton Soldier units to guard the base.
When Dr. Fashion's top cyborgs infiltrated the base, they didn't find the assassins from the Night Raid; instead, they were met with a series of sharp chainsaws.
Automaton Soldier - Tooth Wolf.
This is an automated mechanical unit cobbled together from technology left over from the old world.
It is a rare humanoid machine.
The right arm is uniformly equipped with a chainsaw, which was used for collection or construction operations.
The moment the cyborgs infiltrated the interior, the Automaton Soldier, the Toothwolves, which had locked onto them, appeared simultaneously, completely surrounding them and giving them no possibility of escape.
"They even have it inside."
"This is troublesome."
Doloma hesitated when she saw the fanged wolves surrounding them.
"What's there to be afraid of? They're just some lumps of iron."
Tobi revealed the modified parts of his body, with terrifying alloy armor extending from his bones, followed by two torpedo launchers on his back.
