Chapter 179 - 7.17
Yunyu was currently hovering over an android that was on standby mode. It reminded him of those androids Sakuma made in the fifth world.
This android, however, was not as advanced as Sakuma's android. It didn't have a shell, just a metallic skeleton with wires and other weapons arranged to be an android. Yunyu didn't want to get too close, though, because it might turn on and attacked him.
"Okay, this android has a good drop, Advanced chip. This loot will surely help XuanLake to clear most of the enemies on floor 50+," Yunyu said to Pupa, who floated beside him.
"This is the second gear that is vital to clear Tower of God, alongside Sandworm Shield and the other one later," Pupa commented.
"Mhm… Pupa, may I know what is the current Breakmeter and Fatemeter?"
"Breakmeter is 20%, and Fatemeter is 78%, a big disparity," Pupa reported.
Yunyu seemed to think for a moment, then he just shrugged it off, "Oh well, there is nothing to worry about anyway. If we fail over something, let's just restart."
Yunyu returned back to Kain Town and posted the mission anonymously.
***
Yunyu sent a message to both ZeroCheat and XuanLake to check a new mission in the guild the next morning. Yunyu and ZeroCheat walked side by side lovingly. Meanwhile, XuanLake was already waiting in the guild.
He silently watched Yunyu and ZeroCheat. He looked nonchalant, although his heart was burning with jealousy.
Other players inside the guild already surrounded the floating mission that they wouldn't ever touch.
|| Mission: Slay Lost Android
Poster: ???
Monster Description: Level 100 Lost Android, legendary random spawn in Abandoned Metropolis. Guaranteed Loot: Advanced Chip (Immunity to poison. 10% bonus to all stats. Resistance to electric attack 40%.) ||
"Man, another godlike loot," a player said, "But I cannot take it."
"Same, these level 100 monsters are too much. I can't even take level 70 monster, let alone level 100!"
"Yes, I also heard these legendary spawns have a second passive that will surely screw you. I'm not ready to lose all my gears and some of my progress," another player complained.
When Yunyu and ZeroCheat entered the adventure guild, all eyes were on them. The news about them slaying the Army-Eating Sandworm already spread through many cities. Thus Cutiepie69, XuanLake, and ZeroCheat had become a small celebrity.
Yunyu walked politely and said, "Please excuse me, I will take the mission!"
He grabbed the mission and approached XuanLake first, "Brother Xuan, let's go!"
XuanLake had a thin smile on his face and nodded, "Sure."
Yunyu pulled XuanLake's hand, and he joined with ZeroCheat. They formed a team, just like before, and went to the area where Lost Android spawned, Abandoned Metropolis.
They used the teleportation stone and teleported to the statue near the Abandoned Metropolis. Just like before, XuanLake walked behind, watching ZeroCheat and Yunyu's display of affection again. He was already sick of it, but he had to bear it. He needed the right moment to take care of this guy and stole Yunyu's heart.
He was the first one that met Yunyu. How could he willingly give someone that was his in the first place?
They fought a few small enemies before reaching the Lost Android standing in the city centre square. It was still on standby mode until ZeroCheat stepped inside its radar, and the android's eyes turned on with two red dots.
The Lost Android turned its hand into a gun and said, "An intruder has been detected, activating assault mode."
'Lost Android || Level 100 || HP 100% || Passive: Target, Assault, Execution.'
Yunyu, ZeroCheat, and XuanLake summoned their respective weapons and prepared to attack this android. After that battle against Army-Eating Sandworm, their levels had increased. They were also well prepared by changing their passives before going to this battle.
'XuanLake || Level 75 || HP 100% || Class: Warrior || Passive: Melting Sword.'
'Cutiepie69 || Level 67 || HP 100% || Class: Mage || Passive: God of cute stuff!'
'ZeroCheat || Level 87 || HP 100% || Class: Tank || Passive: Earth Scale.'
However, before they could even communicate with each other, the Lost Android suddenly disappeared and dashed fast towards them. He used his energy blaster and shot a few energy blasts at close range.
'So fast?!'
All of them scattered as they tried to dodge the attack. The Lost Android scanned all three of them and then decided to attack Yunyu first because he was the lowest levelled. The valves on the Android's feet opened and created a jet under the Android's feet. It rocketed towards Yunyu with its energy blaster pointed at him.
"Whaaa!" Yunyu flew around as the android chased him. He dodged the energy blast coming at him, but the relentless chase soon drained Yunyu's mana.
"Yunyu!" ZeroCheat and XuanLake reacted at the same time. ZeroCheat flew towards Yunyu and caught him. He used his hammer to deflect the energy blast that almost hit Yunyu's back.
XuanLake attacked the Android with his sword, "Vital Slash!"
XuanLake aimed at Android's core on its chest, but Android was really agile. It dodged XuanLake's attack skilfully and then shot him with an energy blast, "Argh!" XuanLake crashed to the ground because of the attack.
"Brother Xuan!" Yunyu yelled out loud.
'XuanLake: HP 85%.'
"That android hits really hard," ZeroCheat said.
XuanLake was a level 75 warrior. He should have enough defensive stat to survive a small energy blast. But one energy blast already chipped 15% of his HP.
XuanLake stood from the ground, and he dashed to dodge another energy blast. It seemed that Android would only target one person at the time, focus until the target died or if he got attacked again.
Thus, ZeroCheat planned upon something, "Yunyu, do not use any attacking move. That Android will surely target you again. Instead, try to disrupt him with something else."
Yunyu seemed to think for a moment. He couldn't use any Sailor Senshi's attack because it would be ten times more powerful and counted as damage. They still didn't know Lost Android's second passive. It was better to be careful.
[Pupa, how much that android attack will chip my health?]
[Pupa: Its small energy blast will cut your health by 30%, and the medium blast will cut your health by half.]
[What?! That's so much!]
[Pupa: This android is supposed to hit hard and agile, though quite fragile. Do not use any Sailor Moon's move. It will target you immediately.]
The Lost Android was still attacking XuanLake. ZeroCheat helped him by continuously attacking the android to distract its attention from time to time.
Yunyu finally found a creative way to distract this android. He waved his magic wand and chanted, "With the power of love! I summon Love Magnets!"
The magic wand turned into two magnets with love stickers in it, "I will distract with this! Brother Xuan, Brother Zero, you guys focus on attacking him!"
Yunyu used the blue coloured magnet and said, "Reject!"
The Android was suddenly pushed to the nearest building until it hit the wall. This blue magnet was used to reject any kind of metal. The android struggled stubbornly, although it was in vain. The struggle from the Android made Yunyu's hand trembled hard.
"I—I can't hold this longer! Try to end this Android fast!" Yunyu commanded.
XuanLake finally moved first and prepared his attack. He crossed his sword to form and 'X' sign and chanted his attack, "Let's end this soon! X-Scissor!"
