Chapter 102 The Mini BOSS
The door opened by itself just like the main gate of this tower. Once again, [Skill: Hacking] proves its might.
As soon as Clyde entered the room, it turned out to be quite a large room.
The location on the first floor makes Clyde frown his forehead because usually, a room like this is at the top of the tower.
There is still no movement whatsoever indicating that a robot will appear and attack him. But Clyde knows it's only a matter of time before the robots attack.
There are several large monitor screen panels in this room with running text. Like what you usually see in films with a theme like this.
The red light flashed dimly. Even though it lit up the room with blood red, the light was not as bright as what Clyde had seen in the corridor earlier.
Based on what Agatha said, he would find a mini BOSS with the name T-1000.
Clyde was already facing X-99 whom he could beat easily because he could move so fast before they had the chance to use a troublesome Skill.
But he didn't know about the robot this time. Based on the name, this robot should be slightly stronger than X-99.
Suddenly the monitor screens flickered quickly as if they had malfunctioned.
Clyde immediately put himself on alert. That could be a sign that something was about to appear.
Then the room shook violently, Clyde almost fell because suddenly the room was moving upwards. But soon he was able to balance himself again.
Metal plates appeared and covered the walls.
*BANG!*
*BANG!*
*BANG!*
*BANG!*
...
The sound when the metal plates closed by hitting each other was very loud. And since it was a closed room, the sound was even more deafening.
The room is now a metal box that keeps Clyde inside. This of course was part of the plan of whoever was waiting for him when the room stopped.
After a few minutes, the room that had become a metal box suddenly stopped. All the monitors in this room turned off completely and then a door opened from above.
From that door, a woman wearing tight black latex clothes jumped down into the room. The woman fell to her knees and her head bowed.
She lifted her head slowly towards Clyde. A few strands of her jet-black hair blocked her view. But that didn't seem to matter as her red eyes stared at Clyde.
'This is T-1000?' Clyde squinted as he stared at the woman. He had no idea why they had bothered to create such a fine female form. Did they intend to trick anyone who walked in here with her appearance?
"Hi." The woman even greeted me with a smile.
Clyde admits that she is beautiful. She also has a nice body.
But that was completely useless because Clyde already knew she was a robot he had to beat.
<<<Monster Information>>>
[Name: T-1000. ]
[ Affiliation: Rogue AI Monster. ]
[ Level: 45 ]
[ Skills: Weapon Mastery (Lv.6), Force Field (Lv.6), Hypnosis (Lv.5) ]
[ Stats: Strength (8/10), Stamina (-/10), Agility (8/10), Magic Power (-/10) ]
[ Weakness: Electromagnetic Field. ]
[ Affinities: - ]
[ Rating: A+ (B) ]
This robot will be slightly more difficult than X-99. But Clyde still feels he can handle it. Perhaps what made it even more troublesome was that skill called [Hypnosis].
From the name, if you get hit by this skill, Clyde can get caught in a dangerous situation.
The only way is to move fast enough so that the robot doesn't have time to use its Skill. Just like what he did with the X-99 robots earlier.
"You have successfully found this room. So-"
[ Pure Lightning (Lv.10) is activated! ]
*JRZZZTT!*
Before the robot finished saying it, Clyde had already lunged at it with his body covered in bluish-white lightning.
In the blink of an eye, Clyde was right in front of it and immediately swung the Elderglass Sword which was also covered in lightning.
However, the blade hit a red force field in the shape of a half dome that suddenly appeared out of nowhere.
"I knew you would do that," said the T-1000.
A moment later the robot's hand changed to resemble a futuristic gun muzzle. Then it pointed it at Clyde.
Clyde who saw that immediately jumped aside. The laser shot came out from almost hitting his chest if he didn't dodge it in time.
As soon as Clyde was able to avoid the shot, he didn't take a break and immediately lunged back to a place that wasn't covered by the force field.
But the T-1000 was already following Clyde with those eyes. Even when he was using [Skill: Pure Lightning].
Clyde noticed the robot's eyes were following him.
'So it can see me at this speed.'
As soon as Clyde reached the part that was not protected by the force field, another force field appeared there. Just as he had expected.
So Clyde jumped back to keep his distance for a while first.
The T-1000 smiled. The robot's smile resembled a woman's smile. Totally realistic.
"I already know how you move and how you attack. I've been watching you since you started moving towards this tower," the robot said.
"I also already know what abilities you have."
Clyde wasn't too shocked to hear that. It is a robot after all. So its ability to analyze must be very good.
"You can't touch me as long as this force field is still there."
The T-1000 can even characterize the emotion of someone who feels they have won. Even though what was behind that victorious smiling face was just metal.
"Is that so?" Clyde asked back.
"Yes," it replied. "You also can't go anywhere because this metal cage is extremely formidable. So you will just die here. In my hand."
"Your robot brain really thinks you've won, huh?" Clyde asked back in an even tone.
"I don't just think I've won. I know I've won."
Clyde snorted. "I guess your robot mind can't make you think past your analysis."
The T-1000 didn't change that expression. But Clyde seemed to be able to see that the computer's brain was trying to digest his words.
Without giving it a chance, Clyde dashed with his body still covered in bluish-white lightning. Once again the dome-shaped force field appeared.
[ Burning Hand (Lv. 10) is activated! ]
Clyde let out a burst of fire towards it. Instantly the fire formed a wall that blocked its vision.
The T-1000 moves its eyes to scan the area in front of it. But never found Clyde because of the wall of fire.
Clyde appeared behind him a moment later and immediately swung the Elderglass Sword.
Unfortunately, the T-1000 was moving fast enough to stop the blade.
*CRAAKK!*
Even though it couldn't completely stop the slash, it could at least prevent Clyde from chopping off its head.
Clyde clicked his tongue and then sent a fireball into the robot's face.
*BWOOSH!*
The fireball exploded in the robot's face and sent it flying backward.
T-1000 immediately activates a force field in front of its body to prevent Clyde from attacking it.
However, unbeknownst to it, Clyde is already behind it.
*CRAAKK!*
The Elderglass Sword stabbed the robot's back until it penetrated its chest. The crunching sound of metal being shattered rang out as it did.
"You can't predict my movements if you can't see me, can you?" Clyde said with a grin.
However, it turns out that the T-1000 is not that easy for him to destroy. The robot turned its head 180 degrees and stared at Clyde with glowing red eyes and a face that looked full of rage.
Its face which originally looked beautiful has now disappeared to be replaced by a horrible facial appearance.
The T-1000 then opened its mouth very wide. Much wider than an ordinary human.
Then a canon formed in that mouth. A hissing sound appears indicating that the robot is gathering energy for its blast.
Clyde immediately drew the Elderglass Sword. However, the sword stuck in the robot's back.
"Shit!"
Reluctantly, Clyde had to let go of the Elderglass Sword and roll away.
"JYUU!!!*
The canon in the robot's mouth fired. The reddish canon that shot out cut the top of Clyde's hair a little.
T-1000 moves its head towards Clyde who is running to dodge. The laser grazed the metal wall that confined them.
The metal wall was strong enough that the lasers only created long, deep scratches.
Luckily Clyde still activated [Skill: Pure Lightning] so he had no trouble dodging the laser.
The Elderglass Sword was now trapped in the robot's body. And it was clear that the robot would not have given up the sword even if he asked for it nicely.
[ Burning Hand (Lv. 10) is activated! ]
This situation forced Clyde to keep using his skills. It made him quite worried.
If only he could use all of his Stat Points to strengthen himself, the robot wouldn't be a problem for him.
Flames flared in Clyde's hands. While lightning enveloped his entire body.
He dashed while dodging the T-1000's laser shot.
