BXBX NOVEL Chapter 97 The Location
After making sure that all the robots around him were destroyed, Clyde walked back toward Sonya and Asqa.
Clyde then saw that other robot troops were being fought by the Regressors. Without thinking any longer, Clyde immediately walked toward them.
Sonya and Asqa also immediately followed him. The two of them walked behind him like obedient followers.
"Asqa, you have that [Skill: Attack Up], right?" Clyde asked without looking back. His gaze remained fixed forward, towards the robot troops who were now also aware of their existence.
"Yes," Asqa answered.
"Use it on us, now."
So Asqa did it. She stretched her arms towards Clyde and Sonya and activated [Skill: Attack Up] which, judging by its name, was a Skill to increase attack.
A reddish glow enveloped Clyde and Sonya's bodies for a few moments. Before finally disappearing as if absorbed into their bodies.
"How much will our attacks increase?" Sonya asked.
"Because I've maxed out that Skill to Level 10, that Skill can strengthen your attacks by up to 100%," Asqa replied.
"Wow," Sonya smiled admiringly at Asqa. "That's quite a lot. Coupled with our Stats. I don't know how much Clyde's attack will increase."
Clyde grinned. He knows how much he is capable of. Even before he was given the buff, his attack power was already quite impressive.
Now when his attack is increased by 50%, it will make his attacks even more destructive.
"How long does this Skill last?" Clyde asked.
"About half an hour," Asqa answered quickly. That long period of time was also because she had maxed out that Skill Level.
"That's amazing, Asqa!" Sonya said.
"You can also use your skills on the Regressors. That way we can finish these robots quickly," Clyde said.
Asqa nodded. "OK."
Clyde then ran ahead of them. In an instant, he was within a short distance of the robot army.
Clyde then kicked the ground and shot up. His eyes had already set the large robot as his target.
Just like Clyde, the robot was also staring at him with a pair of eyes that lit up in front of it. The canons beside its body started to light up, then fired four red orbs at Clyde.
*JYUUU!*
*JYUUU!*
*JYUUU!*
*JYUUU!*
All four canons fire simultaneously. The four red orbs shot towards Clyde who was still in the air with incredible speed.
Seeing the shot coming, Clyde contorted his body in a swift movement in the air. So the four orbs just passed through his body and failed to hit him.
The four orbs shot toward Sonya and Asqa who were behind Clyde.
"Watch out!" Sonya shouted.
Sonya and Asqa immediately dodged to the side. Asqa can move more calmly now because she can control her fear better.
Even so when she saw the four orbs that shot out of the canons shooting toward them, Asqa couldn't completely calm down.
*BOOM!*
*BOOM!*
*BOOM!*
*BOOM!*
The four orbs smashed into roads and buildings. Creates a huge explosion that throws debris in all directions.
But in the midst of all that, Sonya and Asqa were still able to save themselves.
Clyde who was still in the air activated his Skill.
[ Burning Hand (Lv.10) is activated! ]
His hands were burning with a very strong flame. Then he threw a fireball toward the big robot's eyes.
*BOOM!*
Clyde's fireball hit its left eye and destroyed it instantly. However, the robot was clearly still able to survive with one eye and could not feel pain. So, it can still attack as if nothing had happened.
Clyde landed back on the ground smoothly. And when he looked up at the robot, it had already started its next attack.
The mini guns beside his body started to rotate. Then fired red laser beams in succession and very quickly toward Clyde.
The barrage of red lasers attacks Clyde relentlessly. Clyde was able to move fast to avoid some of the shots. But in the end, he couldn't possibly avoid it all.
Even with the maxed-out Stats, the barrage of lasers that come out of several mini-guns at once is still something that is hard to avoid.
Several shots hit Clyde's body. However, the protection of the Dark Night Coat he was wearing was really amazing so the shots didn't have much of an impact on him.
Clyde only felt the shot that hit him like a strong shove from someone. But can't really hurt him.
In contrast to the condition of the streets and buildings around Clyde. The successive shots destroyed the streets and buildings and left them ravaged until there was nothing left.
Despite being constantly hit by gunshots, Clyde didn't feel afraid or despair. He knew that all this was nothing for him.
A fireball shot out from behind the fog and debris toward one of the large robot's miniguns.
*BOOM!*
The fireball hit one of the robot's four mini guns and destroyed it instantly. The second fireball followed with exactly the same accuracy.
*BOOM!*
Another one of the robot's miniguns was destroyed by the fireball. The robot, as if feeling angry because Clyde had destroyed its weapon, the one eye that was still left lit up so brightly.
IItscanned the entire place behind the debris and fog to find Clyde. But the robot still couldn't find him.
That's because Clyde was already right under it. Clyde swung the Elderglass Sword with all his might.
*CRAAKK!*
The Elderglass Sword's bluish blade pierced the robot's left front leg and nearly broke it.
The robot lost its balance and almost fell. So Clyde added his attacks to make the robot completely collapse to the ground.
Clyde's slash came again and this time actually broke the robot's leg. It fell to the ground and Clyde immediately jumped away.
*BOOM!*
The robot hit the ground with a loud thump. Clyde didn't take too long to pause and came right back to deliver fatal attacks on the robot.
Clyde jumped on top of the robot and started slashing the Elderglass Sword furiously. He then opened the metal 'skin' of the robot. Exposing the inside of it which consists of various components.
Then he stretched his hand which was still covered in flames inward, toward the component that made the robot move and stays alive.
*ZWOOOSSHHH!!!*
Clyde let out a huge torrent of fire into the robot's exposed interior.
Clyde's fire immediately melted the robot's internal parts in an instant. Of course, the inside of it would not be as tough as the outside which was designed for combat. The inside is the part that should be protected.
So, it didn't take long for the robot to die because all of its parts had been destroyed and melted by Clyde's fire.
The red eyes of the robot that had been burning brightly slowly faded and disappeared along with its life.
Clyde jumps down from the corpse of the huge robot. Without a moment's delay, he immediately dashed toward another smaller robot troop and started slashing at them.
The Regressors who were still busy fighting the robots were surprised to see the big robot lying dead in a very short time. Then they saw Clyde coming and their surprise was immediately answered.
"Tell me where the Main Control Tower is," Clyde immediately said as soon as he got next to Rodney. Even he did it while killing the robot he saw in front of him.
"Why are you so eager to find it?" Rodney asked.
"From the name, isn't that tower the center that controls all these robots?" Clyde replied.
"No," said Rodney. "The ones controlling these robots are the ones behind this apocalypse. The Main Control Tower is just standing around without having any influence."
Clyde looked at Rodney. "You sure?"
Seeing Clyde's gaze and actions, Rodney thought that Clyde did know something that he didn't about the Main Control Tower.
"At least that's what I know." Rodney had to admit his cluelessness now to get that information.
"What do you know?" Rodney asked.
"I only heard that name from beings I met. So, I think that tower holds something important" Clyde replied with a convincing lie.
"Alright. I'll show you," said Rodney. "We will get the location of the Main Control Tower from one of the big robots like the one you killed earlier."
"What?!" Clyde turned to Rodney with a look of disbelief on his face.
Rodney slashed the robot in front of him. Then said. "What? I didn't have a chance to say it before. After all, you can still look for it in the robot's corpse, right?"
Clyde glanced at the robotic corpse he had just incinerated from the inside.
"I don't think so," said Clyde.
"Why?"
"It looks like the inside of the robot has been destroyed."
Rodney sighed. He had no idea what Clyde had just done.
But because his strength is too great, he doesn't even need to completely destroy the robot to kill the robot.
"Let's look for another big robot," Clyde said.
