Chapter 1576 Counterattack against Diamondz -Part 21
"And here I really thought they were making things easy with just one." Her eyes slid into a singular line as she saw the unsuspecting Assault Police Mechanoids who were attempting to get around the broken edges of the room in order to assist the ground units with some support cover from above. Even though a few police Mechanoids had positioned themselves around the holes to prepare for any ambush attacks, they had clearly forgotten how the last attack went.
And so, those assault police squads had undoubtedly become the breakfast of the second Tri-Rex.
Or so Click had thought until she saw not one pair but two pairs of jaws breaking out from the ground and gradually destroying the entire groundwork of the 36th floor, causing a massive crevice to be visible. And with the 36th floor partially destroyed, the remaining units at the edges of the room finally saw the disaster that was in awaiting for them.
Thinking that two brand new Tri-Rexs were more than trouble, make it three.
"Ha ha ha. I think we are done for Tellie. It was no doubt a mistake to raid a headquarters without much thinking." Click laughed bitterly towards Tellie and even her friend could see the impossibility of the situation. Indeed, they could take down one more Tri-Rex and handling two was probably a doable situation. However, if there were three brand new Tri-Rexes, there was no way the Grey Bears could do it.
"Lol, and here I thought I would have no fun at all," Jin said as he saw the situation more as a fitting challenge rather than a problem. And that was because he had used the Memory of the Black Tortoise to the fullest of his abilities. He initially thought he had to rush it but the opportunity to summon his item properly with some help of the System also enabled him to get the strongest item he ever possessed in his repertoire.
The System Rider Belt.
So far, he never thought that the belt would be his first choice considering that the usage of Bam and Boo was far superior to a power enhancement item. But considering the rapidly changing development of the situation, it seemed as if acquiring the System Rider Belt would be the correct choice of action. Bam and Boo could be the ultimate companion for Jin as he had used them in various problems, even changing to a cannon for him to utilise. Still, right now, he needed something that he could borrow the powers of his minions and the System Rider Belt was the only thing that could do just that.
"The way you said as if you have a plan in mind?" Tellie questioned as she could see that the Assault Police Mechanoids were blatantly shouting through their comm lines that they require urgent assistance with the emergence of the Tri-Rex.
"Ehh I initially wanted to dive in and plummet them but it looks like you reminded me of something." Jin smiled as he flamboyantly displayed his passive cultivation skills by doing big jumps so that he does not fall into the 35th floor and talked to a person who seemed to have the highest authority in this place.
"What is he gonna do with the enemy's police commander?" Click asked Tellie, thinking she might have a possible deduction.
"Not sure, I thought we should take this chance to flee now that the police are on the case," Tellie replied and Click unknowingly nodded her head at the situation, believing that this was the right course of action since the Tri-Rexes had attracted huge attention from the public as well as the police.
With the military rolling in, it would be a matter of time before those Mechanoids should be put down and their purpose for going to the lower floors was to either create a distraction or slow down the enemies until Yin and the rest of the Grey Bears had completed their objective.
And if this was to be bragged about, the situation they were in had caught the attention of the entire Daimon city and there was no reason why they should involve themselves further in this problem even though they were the first to create such a problem.
But even as Click and Tellie were speaking with each other in the System's internal chat, they suddenly saw Jin being saluted by a senior Daimon Police Assault Commander based on the rank it holds on his bulletproof vest. Jin continued to speak freely and the commander continuously nodded his head at every sentence that their Grey Bear Commander spoke of.
After which, the Police Assault Commander gave another resolute salute to Jin before barking orders out to his fellow junior commanders and colleagues before they gave a resilient shout to acknowledge their senior commander's orders.
Jin walked back with pride and that was when his two Grey Bears vaguely understood what had actually happened.
Right on his chest was an insignia of his rank but the more important piece of evidence that tells the story of why the Daimon City Police listened to him was a symbol that could be recognised even by the Grey Bears.
It was the insignia of Archduke Dyke's army, The Dyke's Pikes. That alone showed that Jin was considered to be one of Archduke Dyke's personal army and the authority of a high ranking commander. Combining that with his major rank, he could practically take over any squad if he wished to for a period of time.
And considering that Daimon City was part of the Empire, the police assault squad obeyed the military and security laws of the Empire thus making Jin the superior of their superior because of the prestige that Dyke's Pikes.
"I cannot believe you have the gall to pull that one even though you are not one of them. You might get not get imprisoned if you got caught but probably executed too." Click said and Tellie chuckled at her sarcasm.
"Well, if Dyke had worked harder to get me the lordship earlier, we technically would not be in this situation, right? Besides, I own him. If he cannot cover a simple lie like this when verified, there is no use of him being my minion." Jin said with a slight shrug as if it was meant to be that he uses the insignia to coerce the police now that they had established the threat to be the Tri-Rexes instead of the 'terrorists' that infiltrated the area.
"All we have to do now is to go one step further to earn their trust and perhaps, we might be able to get out of a seemingly hopeless problem to which we did not have an answer when we were planning this out," Jin said as he picked up his System Rider Belt and activated it.
"You honestly know how to get out of a bad turn of events and I would salute you for that." Click said as she did what she said and
gave a casual salute which Tellie followed too, knowing that the battle was far from over while wandering why the Experimental Research Team as well as the Boss Team was taking so long to keep this situation under the wraps.
