Chapter 1575 Counterattack against Diamondz -Part 20
"Clear out of the way!" A veteran police commander shouted as he could see the impending doom that was coming above. Several police commanders were unable to comply as it was their first time encountering such an act happening in the city. Aside from usual disputes between fellow citizens, Daimon City is a relatively peaceful place to live in.
Because of the private military corporations Diamondz and subsequently their major expansion into politics, the city had been inadvertently ruled by them, enabling their goods to provide the necessary protection to the city. There was no need for any expedition forces, a strong local security presence to always clear the occasional monster waves that other towns might suffer. (Obviously, as the Synthesis AI administration commands it depends on the progress of various cities and events.)
That was why when the local police saw the commotion and subsequent destruction that was coming to their way, they had no idea how to respond to it. All of their movements were sluggish with the exception of the Police a.s.sault Squads who were experienced commanders that had their fair share of battles under their belt before being able to be employed into such an executive position.
Needless to say, Heli Cop received a ton of damage from the fall impact as it failed to overturn Tri-Rex during the middle of the fall. This is partially due to Click"s desperate attempt to manoeuvre her summon being brought to a halt as the Tri-Rex had used its tail to shoot back at the "onlookers" who were staring at it from the 36th floor.
Its blast narrowly went through the edges of the 36th floor, further destroying the gla.s.s windows and parapets. Yet, its shot could have been towards the 35th floor, causing major damage to the foundations of the 36th but it did not. Its main purpose was the 37th floor where the foundation was comparatively weaker, causing the 36th floor"s ceiling to fall so that debris block any possible attackers shooting at its back.
And because of Click"s inaction to a.s.sist Heli Cop, her summon was completely obliterated by Tri-Rex relentless onslaught of punches and bites. But in every disastrous aftermath, there was a silver lining to it. Heli Cop core AI knew that the fall damage would completely cripple its functions alongside Tri-Rex"s a.s.saults thus, it had channelled all processes into its rotating rotor blades, causing it to go overdrive.
This enabled it to at least destroy cut off the Tri-Rex"s tail which it was so proud of when it had decisively destroyed the possible opportunity for a backstab. There was fury in the eyes of the dinosaur infused Mechanoid as it could have easily blocked the attack but due to its arrogance, the Tri-Rex lost a tail and had to utilise its nan.o.bots for recovery. Unfortunately, the fury of losing its tail was subsequently unleashed onto the crippled Heli Cop, which knew its chances of survival were close to zero the moment it hit the ground.
That however also triggered anger in the eyes of the public, especially the local police who were in this vicinity because of one singular thing. The symbol of the police logo was on Heli Cop. As it mercilessly destroyed Click"s summon and even though they all knew that it was probably an impossible task to defeat it, one thing was for sure.
It had tarnished and demolished a property that belonged to Daimon Local Police even though they do not know whether this robot had always been on their side or not. But that was all it takes to trigger a response in all of the surrounding Police Mechanoids as it if it was a natural thing to take revenge against it for destroying one of their "comrades in arms". And that was merely just the police as the live broadcast of the ongoing developing situation also took footage of Tri-Rex destroying a police related "property", causing an uproar among the citizens. Some of them even stopped what they were doing to bring their Mechanoids to eliminate this threat.
Thus, Click had indirectly rallied the entire Daimon City to be against their very own corporation. Every single security Mechanoid that was available had taken out their guns and other a.s.sortments of weapons just to aim at one particular target. There was no other reason why they should not do that as they have began to fire at Tri-Rex.
While it was true that the armour of Tri-Rex was of a high grade, it was not as strong as the gorilla Mechanoid which it had killed previously. It was like the concept of the st.u.r.diest s.h.i.+eld and the sharpest spear. The Tri-Rex was made to destroy the gorilla Mechanoid and so far it was the only existence that could defeat it in a one to one combat. Though Tellie had indeed killed one of them, it was because of the a.s.sistance from the System. If not for the upgrade, there was virtually no way Tellie could had beat it despite utilising its slightly weaker points of armour.
But to create such impervious armour for the Tri-Rex model was next to impossible. Not to mention, the nan.o.bots were not able to replicate such armour for the Tri-Rex. That was why they focused on better regeneration nan.o.bots for the sharpest spear that was stored in the Diamondz armoury.
Therefore, all those overwhelming number of bullets would eventually hurt.
The nan.o.bots were doing its best to recover as much damage as possible depending on priority. However, Heli Cop"s AI last ditch effort had forced Tri-Rex nan.o.bots to already work overtime, and thus all Tri-Rex could do was damage mitigation.
And that was to kill as many security Mechanoids that were on site and eliminate any major threats before those bullets could effectively hinder the Tri-Rex from being operational. Everyone on the field could see that their attacks were effective and they pressed on despite the berserking Tri-Rex killing and bitting anyone within its range.
The Grey Bears thought they could finally have a break ...until they heard the very same roar emitted by the Tri-Rex. "Looks like there is another one lurking beneath..." Click said as both Tellie and her instinctively ran to the sides of the wall in order to avoid another sudden jaw bite.
