The Ultimate Evolution - Chapter 741

Chapter 741: Pitfall

Following that, Test-subject 2 displayed a tremendously potent electric shock special ability – a blue electrical network that could paralyze all foes . It was clearly to combat flocks of Deinonychus and Velociraptors and held outstanding offensive might

Sadly, Sheyan's and Reef's abnormal resistance was ten folds that of ordinary Deinonychus and Velociraptors . For the contestants who grasped the weakness of these robots, such degree of strength obviously could't impede them .

Zi easily easily destroyed them with her 'Force Walls' as she exploited the robots' poor mobility on stairs . Sadly, the two robots didn't drop any equipments but still offered 3,000 utility points to each member .

Meanwhile, Reef faced those robots with a sensation of heroism without weapons . It would be fine if he hadn't witnessed the official MTs battling . Yet after that MT war of different paths, he couldn't help but thirst and desire the day he could step into their realm .

As for the guards . . . . they unluckily fell prey to Brother Black's deathly barrels . Furthermore, they were utterly wrecked by Mogensha also due to Sheyan's terrifying virus effects . For these guards with physical constitution similar to real world humans, the 'Bronchitis' and 'Influenza' virus strains descended gravely onto them!

At present, Brother Black had one foot on Test-subject 2's flickering but dimming electric eye . He lit a cigar and said .

"If these machines were as mobile as humans, we would've been in deep shit today . "

Zi replied indifferently .

"It won't be that simple . I reckon it'll take years before technological advancement in the real world can resolve that issue . Don't even mention humans walking, even running on four limbs like animals for a fully intelligent robot would be an immense challenge; much less to say of going into combat . "

Sheyan then abruptly interrupted .

"Perhaps we should try negotiation with their upper management . There's a proverb; what we can't acquire from battle, we can't from negotiations . However, since we've already demonstrated our capabilities, perhaps the top executive is willing to listen to our request?"

Mogensha doubtfully replied .

"Negotiation? We are rushing for time you know . "

Sheyan earnestly continued .

"If I'm not wrong, the top executive of such this large conglomerate ought to possess his own private elevator . Although our blatant rampage can earn us the 'Alpha Spraymist' in the end, we may not necessarily get into the executive databank and retrieve the coordinates of the secret lab . Therefore, shouldn't we approach this differently?"

Speaking till here, Sheyan's eyes glistened slightly .

"Moreover, this method may possibly offer us additional benefits too . "

All these while, they were conversing through the party channel . After concluding, Sheyan glanced at a surveillance camera and spoke aloud .

"I am Major Seaman, you should've heard of my name before aye . We aren't here to appropriate your company's secrets, but merely fulfilling our highly classified mission to retrieve some coordinates . Pass my intentions to your top executive, if you are willing, we will leave once we retrieve the coordinates . "

30 seconds later .

A minute later, followed by two minutes . Still no answer .

Observing the rather awkward atmosphere, Zi didn't know whether to smile or not while Reef was attempting to bring the mood up with jokes . Instead, Sheyan spun around and declared .

"Let's advance . "

After trudging five steps forward, he warned with a solemn expression .

"Everyone be careful . The only reason they aren't negotiating even after we've demonstrated our capabilities, is possibly due to a hidden trump card . To them, this trump card will surely eliminate us . Hence, the lack of respect!"

As planned, the group of four ascended to the 40th floor .

After all, the 'Alpha Spraymist' wouldn't run but top executives could .

The theory of a private escape elevator was merely a guess, however, prior to encountering the Test-subject 3 robot, they had already ruined all normal operating elevators . Those elevators couldn't be fixed within a short duration .

Therefore, without an escape elevator, the only way down would be the fire escape staircase; this would be like catching a turtle in the jar .

Meanwhile, Sheyan's propagating viruses was on a complete outbreak . Violent coughing and sneezing filled the building . Under such circumstances, Sheyan could only apologize to the innocent workers suffering in this calamity .

When they arrived at the 40th floor, the route ahead separated into two left or right access channels; forming a gigantic loop for this floor . Furthermore, the main access gates adopted numbered signages instead of specific titles like 'general manager', or 'treasurer' etc .

The 40th floor was decorated with a futuristic scientific theme, with sleek corners and brightly lit walls of stainless steel . The place was pristine without a tinge of dust, and the floor was constructed with transparent plexiglass; arrayed with two rows of illuminating lights beneath .

The gang of four were rather surprised by such a decoration style, in their minds, they believed the executive floor would be filled with a business flare .

"Mogensha and I will take the left channel . Zi, you and Reef will take right and we should be able to converge at the end . Be careful, we cannot allow anyone to escape . " Sheyan instructed .

This combination of one tank one long-range combatant should suffice to deal with any accidents .

Sheyan didn't discover anyone in the first two offices he searched . When he lightly forced open the third office, his eyes instantly met with a frightened guard . The guard was currently on a call and his panic tone sounded deflated .

Their gazes met, but the guard's reaction wasn't fast . With a loud cry as though he had just seen a ghost, he hurled his phone at Sheyan before reaching for his weapon by his waist .

Although the weapon at the guard's waist appeared analogous to an ordinary rifle, Sheyan could guess it was similarly a deadly weapon created specially for combating dinosaurs .

DA! DA! DA! Just as he was about to dodge away, Brother Black triggered his golden AK from a distance behind . The first bullet exploded the guard's brains with blood splattering everywhere, leaving a headless convulsing body idling momentarily before collapsing to the ground .

Proceeding from there, Sheyan spared any innocent unarmed employees he encountered . Unfortunately, those employees were clueless to his questioning and merely shook their heads in fright .

Still, resistance continued pouring in stubbornly as another small squad of elite guards attempted to ambush Sheyan and Mogensha .

In the end, that floor was utterly wrecked and the atmosphere reeked with rich blood stench . The corridor and office walls were dyed blood red with occasional brain pulps, as corpses sprawled on the ground .

The numerous mass of guards still failed to tarry Sheyan and Mogensha for long along this hundred plus metres loop channel . Eventually, they arrived at the end of the channel where Reef and Zi had already arrived from the right channel access .

At this point where the two channels converge, both parties shook their heads and expressed their fruitless adventure .

Nevertheless, ahead of them was now a straight access channel . The theme of this channel was different; exhibiting a velvety red carpet arranged sporadically with green plants by the side, arhaic oil paintings along the walls, and chandeliers hanging from the ceiling . This channel was warm to the senses; akin to a five star hotel, this channel stretched to roughly 60 metres where one could behold an exceedingly spacious conference room ahead .

"We should be reaching the boss soon . " Brother Black puffed his cigar and scolded . "Shitty brat, better pray he doesn't get caught by me!"

"Wait . " Sheyan blurted out .

""I believe our deduction isn't wrong and we are reaching the hiding spot of the top brass . Still, they have yet to meet us which indicates they possess a contingency; an extremely formidable back-up! Therefore, this moment where we are closest to them, will also be the most dangerous moment . "

Zi furrowed her brows and asked .

"What are you implying? We should move separately like before?"

Sheyan replied .

"If the top brass executives have prepared a private elevator, then we naturally should charge in and prevent them from escaping . If they do not, then delaying a little shouldn't pose an issue . The most dependable method is finding someone who knows the internal affairs here . "

Zi sighed as she felt that Sheyan was being excessively cautious like an old granny . She refuted .

"No need for the hassle . Reef and I will head in first and you guys back us up . "

Sheyan frowned and remained silent . Brother Black and him then maintained their positions .

Reef and Zi then marched into the pathway channel with a seemingly complacent demeanor . Nevertheless, they remained exceedingly vigilant .

However, when they reached the middle of the channel, two steel doors abruptly emerged without a warning and flawlessly blocked off their way out .

Those steel doors appeared like the kind that could withstand a nuclear blast . When the doors shut, a circular handle could be seen turning automatically before the doors were secured together with 'clunk' .
