Chapter 9 - I'll Ride Megatron115

Heavy thunderclaps caused the frame of the universe to tremble as Miguel's category 7 machine tried to hold back a category 12 creature.

And from the look of things, the robot wasn't going to last. Miguel had created that robot with a sense of expertise which made it so that the robot continued to fight despite it being mutilated. That being said, it could still properly function with one arm, one leg and one core. 

Average robot mechanics should have already shattered completely by now.

Miguel needed a chance to let him into his faction. However his robot would no longer guarantee his safety due to its pathetic nature. But he still needed to take the risk even if he could not trust the robot's capability anymore.

Miguel turned to Terrace who watched their only path blocked off by the two fighting colossal monstrosities. 

"Any plan?" 

Terrace seemed to stare at the two frightening creatures with a serious expression on his face.

"I've considered a few possibilities but I'm not sure that would go unnoticed by the Rabel."

Miguel's eyes flickered but he did not interrupt, allowing Terrace to continue.

"To bypass both creatures without taking damage, we can actually retreat and find an alternative route. We can also use ranged attack weapons to take out the hostile creature from a distance."

Terrace released his pent up breath and said softly. 

"We can also attempt to reason with or distract the hostile creature."

Miguel's expression twisted. 

"Can a mad creature be reasoned with?"

Terrace chuckled softly. "It's the technology to be used that matters. We cannot possibly try to talk to it by mouth, it would definitely rip us to shreds before we start up a sentence."

Miguel's patience was running out. "Any more ideas?"

Terrace lingered for a while and added softly.

"Using the environment to our advantage. For example, traps, obstacles, the landscape, etc.

Since the robot is almost defeated, let's prioritize self-preservation and avoid direct confrontation. If possible, we try to lure the hostile creature away from our destination or wait for an opportunity to safely pass."

Miguel's eyes flashed.

That is what he would do! Miguel would lure the Rabel away. If not, he'd wait for an opportunity to simply pass.

"Jolie, activate the invisibility sequence."

{Invisibility sequence has been activated}

"Initiate plasmodium grenades, category 6."

{Ok boss, on it.}

It was like Miguel had access to Jolie's inner storage and he brought out three heavy plasmodium grenades. 

He immediately tapped his WMITS and channelled a voice communication towards the robot.

"T12, stand back, an explosion is about to erupt."

All of a sudden, Miguel's category 7 robot retreated which surprised the Rabel for a split second and that split second is exactly what Miguel had wanted to execute the plan.

He activated the grenades to explode in 10 seconds. He dashed forward in 7 seconds, then throwing with all his might, the grenades touched the ground beside the Rabel under 3 seconds and the next moment, a deafening explosion resounded, causing the ground to crack and open fissures.

The Rabel was instantly blasted to the side as it crashed below an open valley.

However before it could return to its previous location, Miguel had already entered the massive building with a calm expression on his face.

Judith and Eben rushed forward as they fawned over him. 

"Oh boss, what are we going to do about this? T12 was our latest creation and it would soon be destroyed."

T12 is actually one of a kind. Humanoid robots were not made to be so versatile, yet this one was. Its endurance capacity was beyond terrifying. And its core was startling for a robot which is why Judith and Eben feared that the creature would destroy the robot once it becomes serious.

Miguel chuckled softly. 

"T12 can retreat. I'll ride megatron115." 

Excited, Eben gave T12 another set of instructions in its programming system. 

These instructions were quite simple.
