The police officers stood in the hall and watched as the two carriages behind them slowly opened. Then, they saw a silver-colored, 3.2-meter-tall humanoid metal robot walk out.
Its upper body was that of a human, but its lower body was that of a spider. It had eight legs, and the bottom of each leg was sickle-shaped, glowing with a cold metallic light. On one of its left arms was a 14.5mm caliber heavy machine gun, and there was a hydraulic buffer behind the barrel. On its right arm was a giant alloy sword that was more than 1.9 meters long.
Just looking at it from afar was enough to send chills down one's spine. And there were 23 robots like this. They walked out of the two carriages one after another, giving off a strong sense of oppression and shock.
Qiu Ming's expression changed when he saw this.
"Why, do you recognize these things?" Zhang Heng had previously searched for weapons in this dungeon online, but he didn't find any similar robots.
"That's right, this is the Type-VI Hunting Robot, Shengtang Morgan's strongest force in New Shanghai 0297. It's a pure killing machine. This thing usually acts as a guard in the base, and there are only 25 of them in total. In other words, the management has sent almost all the Type-VI Hunting Robots here in one go. They really want to end the battle quickly."
"How many people do we need to stop this thing?"
"We can't stop it." Qiu Ming shook his head. "We might be able to think of a way to stop one or two. If we send 24 of them at once, no one on the first floor will be able to stop them." Qiu Ming paused, as if worried that Zhang Heng didn't understand how terrifying these things were, so he explained.
"You've fought with the emergency response team before, so you should know how strong they are. An emergency response team starting with zero can probably hold off one Type-VI Hunting Robot. If a second Type-VI Hunting Robot were to join the battlefield at this time, it would be a pure massacre. These things move extremely fast, and their marksmanship is accurate. The metal on their bodies also has a certain self-healing ability. It's not something that a human's flesh and blood body can contend against.
"When Mr. G attacked the company's base, ordinary security guards couldn't stop him at all. It was not until these robots were dispatched that the battle ended within three minutes. If it weren't for the management's insistence to spare his life, Mr. G would have died in the hands of these guys. You have some kind of deal with him, right? Let's leave the first floor after giving him the things."
Most of the time, Qiu Ming seemed to be indifferent and cooperative. After falling into Zhang Heng's hands, he basically went east when Zhang Heng told him to go west without any complaints. It was only this time that he took the initiative to suggest it to Zhang Heng.
However, to Qiu Ming's disappointment, Zhang Heng did not answer him immediately. The latter was now looking at the silver robots, his eyes flashing. No one knew what he was thinking. After a while, Zhang Heng said again, "Let's find Mr. G first and complete the transaction."
Qiu Ming naturally had no objections to this. After that, the two of them did not have to wait too long before they got the chance to leave the station. The sheriff gathered the forty-eight police officers on the second floor and divided them into four teams. Each team was assigned two Type-VI Hunting Robots.
Zhang Heng and the others' mission was not to kill the enemy, but to cooperate with the Type-VI Hunting Robots to the greatest extent. They would help the latter transport ammunition and complete the preliminary investigation.
Although it was a little embarrassing, the police officers heaved a sigh of relief when they saw the silver robots. They were different from Qiu Ming. They did not know what these things were, but they could tell that they were not to be trifled with. At the very least, it meant that they were not alone in this operation.
However, everyone had clearly underestimated the power of these silver robots.
Not long after they left the station, the eyes of the silver robot in front of Zhang Heng suddenly glowed red. Then, it raised its left hand, and the heavy machine gun roared as it swept towards a grocery store not far away. In just two seconds, the seven people inside were knocked to the ground.
After that, before the police could react, another silver robot had already stepped into the grocery store. It smashed open the door of the grocery store's cellar and stabbed the giant sword in its right hand. When it pulled out the sword, it was already covered in blood.
It was only then that the captain of the team gave the order for four police officers, including Zhang Heng and Qiu Ming, to go in to investigate the situation. In the end, there was no one left alive. Whether it was the seven people who were shot or the guy hiding in the cellar, none of them were breathing or had a heartbeat.
Their clothes looked no different from ordinary citizens, but after searching their bodies, Zhang Heng found that the weapons they were carrying were produced in the military factory he had visited earlier. Needless to say, they were all Mr. G's men. They pretended to be customers shopping at the grocery store and monitored the movements of the police at the station. However, what surprised Zhang Heng the most was the person in the cellar.
It was a woman, and it looked like she was the owner's daughter. She was also the only person without a weapon, but she was still found and killed by the Type-VI Hunter.
"It seems like these robots have activated their maximum killing authority." Qiu Ming looked at the cellar and retracted his gaze. "The management is really desperate this time. Even if they have to pay the price, they have to kill Mr. G and his followers. To them, these people are like cancer cells in the human body. They will constantly replicate, and in the end, they might spread Baudrillard's theory everywhere. Instead of waiting for the day when everything is irreversible, it's better to take the initiative to cut the meat now."
Zhang Heng's face was expressionless as he stood up from the ground. "We have to think of a way to get rid of these two robots. Otherwise, I'm afraid we won't be able to leave the team smoothly. Do you know what their weaknesses are?"
"No, they are formed in one. The energy, the center, and everything else are sealed inside. It's very difficult to destroy them, but …"
"But what?"
"But they act according to remote orders. We can try to block the signal. This way, they will enter escrow mode and execute the last order they received. When the last order can't be executed, they will enter retreat mode and leave the battlefield while defending." Qiu Ming had an unexpected understanding of these robots.
After the two of them finished inspecting the grocery store, they gave a simple report to the captain. Then, they returned to the back of the team and Zhang Heng took out a shielding ring and handed it to Qiu Ming.
"What?" Qiu Ming was stunned.
"One for you, one for me," Zhang Heng said.
"I can't do such a thing." Qiu Ming shook his head, looking very resistant. "This is too dangerous. If I'm a second slower, I might be cut in half."
"You have no choice," Zhang Heng said calmly. There was a distance between the two robots. One was at the back of the team, and the other was almost at the front. No matter how fast he was, it was impossible for him to put a shielding ring on both robots at the same time.
