Chapter 1019: Going According to Plan

The gigantic body of the T-910 Terminator was lifted off the ground by Sheyan. He then threw the Terminator hard into a nearby pond.

Sheyan had long recognised that utilising the terrain was a very effective way of dealing with Terminators, so the environment Sheyan deliberately created fully emphasized this aspect. In truth, the area they were in was originally a dry highland, but Party Ace had turned the environment around their temporary base muddy and full of holes using two sprinklers and a bulldozer. They had even dug a few ponds, thus completely turning the surrounding area into a marsh.

The T-910 crashed into the pond with a splash. More surprising was the fact that electrical current could be seen flowing through the water. A large amount of smoke rose from the T-910’s body — there seemed to be a severe malfunction of some sort.

Sheyan was also shocked by this. There’s no way Skynet did not make the Terminators waterproof, right? If that was the case, would the Terminators not turn useless when it rained? But after taking a closer look, he finally understood what happened.

In the process of being lifted during ‘Tactical Throw’, the T-910’s strength was suppressed by his gloves, so it was unable to move, but it still instinctively and fiercely struggled to resist the gloves’ strength. As a result, when it was flung away, the force suppressing it disappeared, but the T-910’s counter-force was still there, so when it was falling, it accidentally stabbed itself in the right side of its chest with the high-frequency dagger. After that, the muddy water in the pond rushed into the wound, creating multiple short circuits….

In order to help the T-910 malfunction further, Sheyan plunged it back into the muddy water. Electrical currents were still flowing freely in the water, causing waves of numbness and tingling on Sheyan’s skin. While the Terminator was still paralysed by the short-circuits inside it, Sheyan once again gripped its wrist to prevent it from pulling the high-frequency dagger out of the wound. Instead, Sheyan ruthlessly pushed it deeper inside.

In terms of appearance, the T-910 Terminator indeed had a very high degree of similarity with normal humans. In terms of touch, its skin felt just as soft and elastic as human skin. However, when Sheyan gripped the Terminator’s wrist hard, he could still feel the strange sensation of the robotic skeleton inside. In close contact, it was still easy to tell a fake product from a genuine one.

The high-frequency dagger made a metallic ringing sound as it fiercely vibrated in the wound, until it finally broke into several pieces. It was defeated in a battle of durability with the steel alloy body of the Terminator. This should be the Skynet version of an unstoppable force meeting an immovable object, Sheyan thought.

Now that the most threatening high-frequency dagger had been destroyed, Sheyan had nothing to fear. He hit the Terminator’s chest with a knee. As the T-910 staggered back from the impact, Sheyan grabbed a handful of mud and threw it at the Terminator’s eyes.

This move was vicious. Although the T-910 would not rub its eyes out of pain, the mud inevitably limited the Terminator’s vision greatly.

Of course, the T-910 was definitely not that easy to deal with. Seizing the moment, it lashed out with a pair of steel fists using every ounce of its strength! The fists landed squarely on Sheyan’s chest and sent him flying. After landing, Sheyan tumbled several times before he immediately righted himself and half-knelt on the ground. He covered his chest with a hand and coughed violently. Blood could be seen dripping down the corners of his mouth. Those punches almost forced all the breath out of his lungs.

But the T-910 was in a miserable state too. It fell into a muddy pit. The two cameras in its eyes were covered with mud. In fact, almost every inch of its body was covered in mud. Even though Skynet was able to make the Terminators very life-like, it was simply impossible to simulate some human functions such as the lacrimal glands in the Terminators. Despite having the thermal imaging ability of infrared rays, its vision would still be heavily impacted after its eyes were smeared with mud.

When the T-910 finally, after considerable effort, climbed out from the muddy pit wet and miserable, Sheyan charged at it again.

It was no doubt too difficult to maintain stability in such an environment. Sheyan had never planned to finish this robot by himself anyway. His task was only to stall for time.

*

Fifteen minutes later, the T-910 was laying on its back in the muddy ground. The skin and flesh on his face were rolled up all over due to the attacks he suffered, revealing the tough steel skeleton underneath. His face looked particularly ferocious in this state. The red light in his eyes had gone out. A part of his chest was protruding at a strange angle. Right before it was destroyed, it suddenly pulled apart its metal chest, seemingly trying to launch a final assault of some kind, but it was immediately interrupted by Zi’s ‘Force Collision – Wall’ and its hand that was pulling at its chest was amputated by Mogensha.

Sheyan walked over to the Terminator remnant and cut off the muscles on its body, then stuck his hand in. Amidst the warm flesh and blood, Sheyan’s fingers touched several places that were hard and cold. He groped around for a moment and when he pulled his hand back out, there was a shiny metal sphere in his grip. There were a few lines of words on the sphere — probably its model number.

The metal sphere emitted a cold glint in the dark, looking very threatening and mysterious.

All of a sudden, Dolittle’s panicking voice was heard from far away.

“Hey!!! Do you want to die?! That’s a hydroxyl ion nuclear battery! Every second you hold it in your hand, your cells will be exposed to nuclear radiation more than a million times over the safety limit! And the most crucial thing is that it’s unstable! It could erupt in a nuclear explosion at any moment! Skynet doesn’t care about radioactive contamination!”

Sheyan was not too concerned. He had defence and HP to spare, and he could also repair his body in the realm.

He flashed a sinister smile at Dolittle and said, “Just tell me if it’s useful to you.”

Dolittle immediately shouted back. “Of course it is! It’s as valuable as Archimedes’ lever! Go to the shelf in the room on the second floor. There should be a lead box there. Place the battery in the box.”

After he did as he was told, Zi handed something to him.

“The three visitors left us another little gift.”

When Sheyan saw what it was, he instantly exclaimed in surprise.

[ Carbon-Based Organism Detector, Type III ]

[Origin: 3rd production line, 9th workshop, Skynet, Michigan State ]

[ Rarity: Black ]

[ Equipment Effect: Ability to detect carbon based organisms within two hundred meters. ]

[ Equipment Effect: Charm -10 ]

[ Usage Requirements: 50 Perceptive Sense ]

[Equipment Position: Can be installed on breastplate/helmet ]

[ Material: Polycrystalline tube + Oxyhydrogen plastic ]

[ Weight: 0.8 kg ]

[ Description: The higher the Perceptive Sense of the wearer, the better the effect ]

[ Evaluation: Skynet has a plan to make this a standard equipment for every Terminator, because those despicable humans run away faster than antelopes, have stronger vitality than cockroaches, and hide better than mice! ]

Because this piece of equipment would reduce charm by 10, Sanzi definitely would not want it. Sheyan’s Perceptive Sense was the highest in the party at 77 points, so the device naturally ended up in his hands. After equipping and activating it, all carbon-based creatures in the surroundings were marked in Sheyan’s view. Sheyan found that it was not as useful as he had imagined, because the amount of information he needed to process was too large.

The Terminator’s N-core microprocessor could scan 30 thermal imaging targets at the same time, and confirm the identity of the targets through their shapes all in a few seconds, but Sheyan could not. The best places to use this device were desolate areas like the dense forests on Planet Pandora. With this object in hand, there was no longer any need to worry about being ambushed by the terrifying hidden creatures in the forests….but the creatures on Pandora were not carbon-based, were they?

Fortunately, Zi reminded Sheyan of something he had neglected. He checked how much energy the ‘Carbon-Based Organism Detector, Type III’ could provide to his money-sucking black hole, ie. the pair of ‘Planetary-Grade High-Energy Mechanical Power Gloves’. To his surprise, he found from the simulation that the detector could charge his gloves’ energy to the full 100%! This discovery filled him with joy.

In addition, after selling all the miscellaneous loots they got from killing those three invading T-910 Terminators, they obtained nearly 30,000 utility points.

After Sheyan took a shower to clean all the dirt on his body and changed into a clean set of clothes, he returned to Dolittle’s laboratory.

He told Dolittle earnestly, “When the T-910 stepped into this world through the time displacement sphere, the first thing it did was to stand still while extending an antenna out of its ear to receive information. I believe you must’ve traced the signal back to something. Hopefully it’s something interesting.”

Dolittle’s reply once again proved that all the honours bestowed upon him in his previous life were not without reason.

“It is. I can confirm that a TOK715 Terminator was watching the fight and was secretly providing support. Her social security number is XXXXXX, her name is Hannah, and she’s a model. She’s 5′ 9” tall and her bust/waist/hip measurements are 36, 25, 36….but that’s not important. The important thing is she managed to steal some confidential information from me too. She’s probably getting ready to transmit those information to Skynet.

Sheyan’s lips curled into a smile.

“And this information she took are the information we want her to take, yes?”

“Of course. The next time they establish communication, future Skynet will know that although John Connor is not born yet, there’s already a terrifying team of experts who have started to develop a comprehensive education plan for him — an education plan that even Skynet will feel be threatened by!” exclaimed Dolittle with pride.

“It’s time for you guys to find a way to deal with the monster called the T-1000 Terminator.”
