Chapter 1699 Who Will Know? -Part 21
"So, they might be bringing that Mecha Fire Dragon back to the underground facility? Why in the first place is it out of control if they are making it here?" Diaz asked.
"Perhaps, the programming went rogue or its AI core had some errors that forced it to not function as they had wanted it to be. Like you know, ermmm some of the Mechanoids during production, there were a few defects. And some of them move automatically by themselves and they had to be put down? Probably the same logic for them as well."
"Are you deep inside the underground facility?" Jin asked and Page shook her head.
"I took a quick peek since the security was low due to the rampage of the Mecha Fire Dragon but the moment I wanted to go in, I noticed that there were too many surveillance and traps around. "It's either we have the right clearance or we go in guns blazing."
"Then how you conclude that there are other Dragon Mechanoids being built?" Jin asked.
"Oh, because of Click's accessory. The Ultrasonic Detector and her cute little saggy tail insects. I asked for a few more just in case from her but I decided to use those as my spy bots instead. Quite useful actually."
"You could have asked for actual spy fly bots… I have a few of those as well." Click mentioned and Page chuckled a little.
"Did not expect that you have one nor I expected myself to go undercover. I sent you my location so please come asap. The Combat Medic can only do that much."
"Yeah right. Says the one who could manipulate Mechanoids." Click retorted.
"I can do that but I rather manipulate the right one that can give us actual access to everything." Page said as she turned off her Sys Comms and a coordinate had been pinged on the holographic console.
"So, how are we going to do it, Commander? People would think you are dead and Daimon Military might not have figured that out yet. They may send people in. I suspect that they believed you were using that dungeon instance thing to teleport yourself out of danger. So that means, we may have ehhh 6-8 minutes before your grand reveal?" Yinn deduced.
"System, How's the situation and how's the Daimon Military holding up?" Jin queried.
"As the Manipulator had theorised, the situation out there is extremely tense. The probability of User not appearing and going in an all out war, would be tremendously high. Approximately 88%." The System stated. "The System felt it also best to let people know that you are safe but you might be the only one who could undercover the entire truth behind this Mecha Fire Dragon incident. It might be the key to push for Archduke Dyke's revolution if the connection to the Royal Family could be found."
"You are actually excited about this, aren't you?" Jin asked and the System stated a word of the simplest affirmation.
"Yes."
"At first the System thought that the Archduke Dyke was plotting a revolution mainly to get himself into power. However, as things unfold, there were a few parts of the User's journey that caused the System to be pissed off that the Royals were playing such a dirty game. Even the Royal Zodiacs would not stoop that low to have such a disgusting power play. Hence, the System is equally invested in eradicating the Empire Royals if they were indeed a part of this charade of keeping Mechanical Dragons. Besides, if the System could not damage Royal Zodiacs, the Empire Royals sounds like a good practice."
"Actually, what's the deal with these dragons? I mean if Click is a Mecha Mancer, she could if sufficient power and parts create a Mecha Dragon herself." Jin asked
"In summary? The Mecha Industry had been too diluted with Mechanoids at one point so people started creating Beast Mechanoids to compliment their firepower. However, it got so bad that those Mechanoids held too much power and the world's balance got overthrown very easily." Yinn stated.
"Those Mechanical beasts like the Gorillas you saw? They were considered borderline criminal but Hounds and Birds or anything smaller than that Gorilla is still acceptable to most people but generally, they don't really like it. So, if other countries do know that the Empire is creating Mechanical Dragons, there might be repercussions for an all out war. Not just civil war but total war." Click replied.
"So, if we find a reason for Archduke Dyke that the Empire is making Mechanical Dragons, he better act fast and destroy the Dragons as well as attack the Royals…" Jin said and the two who replied to him nodded.
"Yes. I believed they are building it here to implicate Archduke Dyke when it comes down to it. Right now, the loss of the Mecha Crystal Dragon can be considered a big 'X' on Archduke Dyke. Diamondz managed to play it off that it was one man's ambition. But one more such incident will definitely ruin his reputation and we cannot count on him." Yinn explained and they could see that this was a delicate situation that Jin had to handle properly.
So far, they were winning the sympathy count for Parry City Military being an asshole. Now they have to implicate it in some way that they were linked to the Royals or else they would be the ones hunted instead. So far, from what Jin could tell, they had been ahead of time at every step. Now, this might be the misstep they could be looking for.
