1043 The Opportunity for Victory (1/2)

The T-1000 was unable to dodge Sheyan's kick because he had launched his feet really quickly, but as a result, the damage done was very low.

Fortunately, the fundamental purpose of this kick was not to deal damage, but to make the T-1000 lose its balance. This was the plan Sheyan came up with after the painful lesson he learned from his previous encounter with the T-1000. He would not get entangled with the Terminator in close quarters. Every time after he got in a strike, he would retreat and start over again!

In addition, he must avoid focusing his attack on the hands and feet of the T-1000 because these parts were completely unaffected by normal human structure and could change unpredictably. To focus his attack on these parts was to ask for a beating.

After Sheyan kicked the T-1000's knee, forcing the Terminator to react to maintain its balance and control its center of gravity so as not to fall down, a momentary flaw in its defence was revealed! Sheyan took a huge step forward, crouched down and rammed into the body of the T-1000. At this point it looked as if the T-1000 was being carried upside down on Sheyan's back!

Sheyan straightened his back with force! His strong waist and abdomen transmitted power, flinging the T-1000 five meters away, directly over the railings and three floors below.

This was the tactic Sheyan came up with to deal with the T-1000. Not only was the Terminator hard to kill, it would also annoyingly stick to its opponent like glue when it attacked. Its only weakness was that it needed time to transform its body, albeit not much. That was the chance Sheyan seeked. He would make use of his instantaneous explosive power to target the Terminator when it was shapeshifting, keeping his assault short and powerful, so as not to give the T-1000 the opportunity to stick close to him.

The advantage of this tactic was that it would not make the T-1000 desperate enough to self destruct, because such a tactic would not cause its CPU chip to judge Sheyan as an opponent it could not beat. It would only make that judgement if, say, an Apache helicopter with terrifying firepower was pursuing it in the sky out of its reach on a plain with no cover, or something similar to that.

Of course, there were also many disadvantages to this kind of tactic, the most obvious one being the time it would take to finish the fight, which would be prolonged. However, Sheyan had come prepared for a long battle.

After flinging the T-1000 down, Sheyan did not chase after it, but continued to run forward with large strides instead. His current task is not to fight with the T-1000, but to destroy the power compressor that could recharge the T-1000.

The T-1000 had performed another massacre inside the wave power station. Deformed corpses with helpless expressions on their faces were everywhere. The smell of blood was strong in the air. Fortunately, a large part of the operation of the wave power station was automated, or the station would have stopped functioning.

In Sheyan's opinion, Skynet's move of injecting emotional programs into the T-1000 was a foolish one. With its ability to change its appearance into a human, if the T-1000 had quietly hidden itself among the human population, silently guarding the power compressor, Sheyan would be hard pressed to find it, let alone attack it.

”Oh? Is that it?” Sheyan uttered under his breath into his earpiece. The button camera in front of his chest transmitted the scene in front of him to Dolittle, so that Dolittle could advise Sheyan in real time.

The workshop corridor Sheyan was situated in right now was clean and neat. The blue and white colour combination gave this place a refreshing look....if one could ignore the horrible corpses strewn around, of course.

Dolittle carefully scrutinised the image transmitted by the camera.

”That's not it. That's the basic monitoring device of the power station. Careful!”

The T-1000 had unknowingly turned into a pool of liquid, flowing on the ground to a spot a few meters behind Sheyan before it re-solidified. Its hands had taken the form mantis-like sharp blades that shined with a cold glint. They seemed like they were made for beheading.

However, when the left-handed weapon was formed, flashes of electricity burst out from its left shoulder again. That had alerted Sheyan even before Dolittle had shouted his warning. He instantly retreated backwards and crashed into the T-1000's body.

The sharp edges on the blades formed from the T-1000's arms faced outwards, hence they were easy to swipe outwards but not suitable for cutting inside. The Terminator once again fell into the embarrassing predicament of being unable to display its might.
