Chapter 305: Corpse

With the augmentation of the yellowish-green night pearl, the Old Task Force’s Operation Beheading progressed abnormally smoothly. They virtually met with zero obstacles before they arrived at DiMarco’s door and completed two rounds of firepower bombardment.

In the unrestrained flaming storm, the room became very messy. Jiang Baimian couldn’t sense any weak electric signals for a while.

Although Jiang Baimian could infer the outcome based on common sense after such a barrage of attacks—as long as the person inside wasn’t DiMarco’s double, this Underground Ark owner would definitely be doomed. However, Jiang Baimian still wasn’t at ease. After all, the DiMarco she had expected was a powerhouse at the Mind Corridor level. Even if he couldn’t compare to Tarnan’s Superior Heartless, he didn’t deserve to die without putting up a fight.

Not only did this not make her relax, but it served to raise her guard.

After the explosion subsided, she immediately rolled to her feet and rushed to DiMarco’s room.

Thud! Thud! Thud!

A figure in a grayish-blue camouflage uniform rushed past her and stepped through the collapsed door, which was in a sorry state.

It was Shang Jianyao! He led the way as always.

At this moment, two grenades suddenly flew over from the ends of Zone C’s corridor.

Jiang Baimian—who had long sensed something—gave up on trying to sense the electric signals in the room. She directly pounced forward and rolled in, avoiding the attack.

Genava and Long Yuehong also used their comprehensive warning systems to discover the enemy’s approach in advance. One of them jumped up, grabbed the four to five-meter-high ceiling, and retracted their legs while another shoved Bai Chen in advance, allowing her to jump into DiMarco’s room with Jiang Baimian before following closely behind. Although Long Yuehong was a little nervous, he didn’t panic.

Rumble!

Two grenades landed where Shang Jianyao and Jiang Baimian were originally standing, and an explosion sounded.

For the smart bot, Genava, it was very difficult for him to be harmed as long as he wasn’t directly hit. The worst case would be to exchange for supplies to give himself a new paint job.

Therefore, he—who was hanging from the ceiling—only swayed a few times from the blast.

At this moment, he saw the attacker clearly; it was an iron-black robot with red-light-emitting eyes.

The Underground Ark had dominated the smuggling node, Redstone Collection, for years. It had accumulated a lot, and its hidden defenses were indeed astonishing.

In the blink of an eye, Genava determined that the attacker was a relatively ancient smart bot based on the various characteristics. This was a smart bot based on Old World standards, not a smart bot produced by Mechanical Paradise.

In Genava’s eyes, such things without humanization modules were pure tools. They were no different from the maintenance robots and non-intelligent combat robots in Tarnan that could transform into cars.

He would never acknowledge it as a smart bot.

“Leave the area outside to me!” He simulated the necessary tone for the situation according to the information in his database. His body then swayed like a swing before he flung himself out. He jumped across a considerable distance and landed in front of the iron-black robot.

At this moment, the iron-black robot was dutifully rushing toward DiMarco’s room.

Genava turned slightly and slammed into the iron-black robot. During this process, he adjusted the direction of his palm.

Clang!

A clear reverberating sound echoed in basement six. The iron-black robot’s back chest suddenly melted, shooting out a beautiful yet dangerous red laser.

Almost at the same time, its back swelled up and cracked. A metal ball—wrapped in electric bolts—penetrated its many key components and flew into the distance.

Genava seized the opportunity to use his laser weapon and electromagnetic weapon! Furthermore, he had downloaded the blueprints of all kinds of robots and had done some research. He knew very well where the other party’s fatal spots were.

Amidst a series of explosions, the iron-black robot lost all its mobility and fell to the ground with a thud.

Genava didn’t waste any time; he turned around and ran to DiMarco’s door.

In Operation Beheading, he—who had no human consciousness—would be the main force in the latter half of the battle.

When Genava pounced at the iron-black robot, Jiang Baimian had already completed her roll. She switched on the flashlight and shone it at the spot where she had sensed a human before firing the rocket launcher.

There was a large, cracked bed with wisps of flames. Beside the bed lay a man in silk pajamas.
