Zink!
Zink!
The hall suddenly became noisy because of the sound of alarm rumbling from every corner of that giant room. The enhanced hearing system that almost every HumanBot have causes them to struggle to stay balanced while standing on their feet. They tried to cover their earlobes using their bare hands to reduce the annoying sound from the alarm.
Neo seemed to be struggling a lot. He fell to the ground while lying on the wall, trying to manually reduce his hearing system because he was the most sensitive HumanBot in terms of that system.
“Arghh …”
[Mutant body received damage from unknown object]
Another notification popped out and confused him.
[Warning!]
[The host might collapse]
“What was that for? Arghhh …” Neo complained on something that he could only seen from the notification on his robot’s eye.
“Neo, are you okay?” Tony ran toward Neo and gave him a hand. He held Neo’s arm to push him to stand.
Zink!
He turned it off, and suddenly, he could not hear anything. Even the voice from Tony’s lips that still moving as if he was talking to him at this moment.
But Neo could hear nothing.
[The host is not safe]
[Initiating the auto-recovery]
[Cost: 10 DE]
[Not enough DE in the bank]
Those non-stop notifications started to annoy Neo, but he still had no clue what that thing was for. Although he could not hear anything because he managed to turn off his hearing system for a while, he tried to look around, and what he saw was a chaotic situation.
Most HumanBot in that room still struggled with the annoying alarm sound. The sound creeps them out like crazy. But then he noticed one thing that he could not resist.
A punch.
Right on his face.
Bam!
Aaron punched Neo’s face until he fell backward and hit the wall hard. It made the system back to normal, and the zink-alarm-sound was back. Neo covered his ears while trying to hold the pain from the sudden punch.
“What have you done, Junkies! Turn them off!” Aaron was mad. And everyone in that room looked mad on Neo. Because of him, that annoying alarm was started. Even though it was just Neo was there in the wrong time. That alarm was not even his fault.
“Moved back or I’m going to cut you down with my blade, Aaron!” once again, it was Tony who was trying to protect Neo.
[Warning!]
[The host might collapse]
“Please, reduce the hearing system to twenty percent,” murmured Neo, he spat his blood from his mouth.
“The hearing system has been set to twenty percent sensitivity.” It was the woman voice that Neo knew. Transformer.
“Transofrmer? You can do that too?” Neo whispered in disbelief. Now, his hearing system was all good. The alarm didn’t bother him anymore.
“I am your assistant.” She replied inside his head.
Neo smiled in relief. Then he grabbed Tony’s arm from behind, “Don’t worry Tony, I am ok.”
He held the wall to stood back. Get the punch on his face was affecting his balance for a second. But the second after, everything was fine.
Out of nowhere, Neo got his confidence and moved forward to face Aaron’s angry mode.
“Thanks for the punch. Because of that, I could learn something important.” Neo patted Aaron’s shoulder, but Aaron pushed him away immediately.
Zink!
The alarm was still there. Annoying everyone who doesn’t know how to control their hearing system. But Neo was now the chilliest person in that room. Even Tony and Hope were still annoyed by the sound, even though they tried really hard to pretend everything was fine.
[The host is safe now]
That notification again. Now Neo knows to whom he should ask.
“Transformer, what were that mutant body and the host? I don’t understand. It keeps notifying me. Are those notifications from you?” He asked in a whisper.
“(Silence).”
“Transformer, are you still there?”
“Yes, I am. I am always here to help you.” The woman’s voice inside his head was clearly still there.
Neo asked the same question one more time, and he only received another silent treatment from Transformer.
“Transformer, do you need DNA essence?” he changed the question only to test the AI to see if it knew something.
“No.”
“Now you gave me an answer, huh?”
Neo started to understand. He analyzed every limited information he got, and now he could summarize something. The mutant system, the mutant body, and the host, those words that keep notifying him from his robot’s eye were not a part of Corine’s plan. No one knows about that, including the AI system that has already been integrated into his body.
It was like there was another system linked to Neo’s body, but that system could not be detected.
One thing that Neo thought was nearly impossible. Being the HumanBot, he believed everything that made him alive until now was because of the Creators. Because of them, he could live as a teenage boy today. And none of his body worked naturally.
But now, finding something that was not planned by The Creators, it made him suddenly excited. Neo stared at Aaron’s eyes for second before he ignored his presence, then moved forward, approaching Hope with sparkly eyes.
“What do you want?” the girl felt something unusual happened to Neo. Because she believed that she never see that expression on his face right now.
“Hope, do you think that it is possible if we could have another system in our body, but that system was not created by the Creators?” he asked, excited.
Hope didn’t change her expression, She thought that Neo’s question was just a non-sense.
“You meant natural human’s body system? Well, we HumanBot, don’t have such a thing. Everything in our body was made by The Creators.” She explained as if she was the walking encyclopedia of HumanBot.
Hope’s answere made Neo even more excited. After seventeen years of his life, he found something that Hope doesn’t know. He kept it a secret until he understood what that unknown system was for and how it could be linked to his body without being detected by Corine’s error system detection device.
“Now, what? What are we doing here?” Tony jumped to Neo’s side.
But suddenly, hundreds of mini pipes appeared from the wall inside that giant hall. And the second after, black smoke came out from the pipes and turned the hall into a dark black hall.
The alarm sounds have disappeared as if they never existed.

Neo and the others couldn’t see anything inside the darkness caused by the black smoke. As the training section has been officially started, Neo, who already set the hearing system back to the highest level of sensitivity, began to hear the short breathing system of the HumanBot hidden inside the darkness.“Transformer, do you think the infrared gonna work?”“I have activated the Infrared’s eyes.”Immediately, Neo’s eyes color changed to red as the infrared function had been activated by Transformer. And now, he could see everyone in the darkness, including their facial expression right now when they were lost in the dark and didn’t know what to do next.Neo knew that not all the HumanBot have the infrared system planted in their eyes. Any kind of superior system that normal humans could not have was planted in HumanBot. Still, not all of their body could accept it. Some rejected it, and thus, the system could not work correctly or could not even work.In front of Neo was Hope. She lo

Darkness. Neo could not see anything except the darkness that surrounded him. He was sure that both of his eyes were fully opened, but there was still nothing there. Only darkness. Started to wonder what was happening to him, he suddenly felt like his body was flying. He was lying, but he could not feel anything holding him back, as if he was there lying while flying.“Is this what they called dreaming?” he whispered to himself. His voice sounded weird, as if he got a sore throat.“Hello? Is anybody here?”Neo was trying to find the answer himself. The notification was the only thing he could remember before everything turned into darkness. When the countdown reached 0 seconds, suddenly, everything turned black.“Hell─.”A transparent screen suddenly appeared in front of his face. The light from the screen blinded Neo’s eyes for a second.[Rebooting in progress (10 minutes left)]A weird loading scale inside the screen started to count down the time. Neo tried to touch the screen, but
My Mutant System 11. Stronger System
Neo could no longer speak as if a lock system was placed on his lips. He was trying to free himself, but still, he had no power to move at that moment. A second after, the darkness in front of him started to move like a mini tornado that sucked everything in that room, including Neo’s body. But however, whatever holding Neo’s body was much stronger than the mini-sucking tornado. Neo was still there while he could feel the strong sucking sensation moving to the mini tornado's center. Wondering what was going on, he could only be taught to himself to stand still and calm down. But the movement of the mini tornado was powerful, thus, Neo started to lose consciousness. “Am I really going to die now?” he said to himself. And suddenly … Neo’s body started to feel hot as it burned from the inside. He tried to scream but could not do that because of something still shutting his mouth up. The burning sensation was still there, while a painful feeling started to join the party. Neo could ha
My Mutant System 12. DNA Extraction Skill
The Greenish race was not originated from Planet Earth. They have their own planet before invading the Earth and destroying everything, converting it to another place suitable for their new home.Humans did not know the reason why The Greenish came out of nowhere and never left because no human could interact with the Greenish. They could speak, of course, but their language and human language were not the same.One important thing about The Greenish that everyone already knew was the fact that they were all shapeshifters. The original appearance of The Greenish was just something covered in green color. They were fully alive.They do not have skin like a human; their skin is as dry as reptiles. But they do not have scales on their body, nor fur. Only Skin. Their body was slim without any curve, just as linear as a ruler. They have three eyeballs colored black attached to the front of their face. They did not have any nostrils, but their mouth was just a big round-shaped cavity with h
My Mutant System 13. 20 DE
Neo could feel his body refreshed as if he had just woken up from eight hours of sleep after having such a nutritious dinner before bedtime. The feeling he got came from absorbing the DNA essences from the Tarantula’s leg into his system bank.It was only a low amount of DE, but the effect made Neo feel spoiled. Even so, he did not have such a long time to enjoy the treatment from the system because the Tarantula right in front of him was starting to find a way to stand up with one leg gone.“Come on, Greenish. Give me more.”Neo started to understand now. He learned very well.The system inside his body that never stop asking to be fed with something containing DNA could be everything. Especially the living things. All Neo had learned from the academic school he got as the HumanBot, every living thing have DNA.But however, the system was like only recognizing the Greenish DNA at this moment. Ignoring DNA from the human or even the HumanBot. Because the notification showed that there

“Neo!”“Neo!”“Neo, wake up!”Neo could hear a soft voice that he knew belonged to Hope. She called his name hundreds of times, and now … her call could be heard by Neo.The teenage boy started to move his eyelids, trying to open them. A bit hard to do, as if both of his eyelids were sealed by something.“What happened?” Neo groaned as his body felt ached. He was confused by the looks of four different faces. They looked worried.Hope, Tony, the one girl with short hair like a guy that must be Trish, and another guy with a pale face. Neo did not know what they were thinking; thus, he pulled his back to sit, and once again … he found himself on the floor.“Gosh, you scared me!” Hope moved backward, creating a distance. Her body was covered by sweat. Same as the others three.Neo did not ask for more questions. In fact, he looked around and discovered that the view was totally different from the previous one he could remember.In front of him, five meters away, there was Tarantula’s car
My Mutant System 15. Robot Fighter
Neo had finally understood what was going on. Even so, he could not tell the true story to anyone inside that hall because he still had a lack of trust toward the others, including his best friend. Using his creative mind, Neo tried to find an excuse to tell them before their curiosity led to something bad happening.“It was Corine’s special gift.” Neo answered to question of Aaron.Everyone who still could stand on their feet was now looking at Neo. They were having a big curiosity toward him now. After all, they never saw Neo do such a thing during the training against something. Besides, this time was the first time for all HumanBot to fight against the real monster, the Greenish. Usually, they only have to fight the low-quality robot with integrated AI in their system.“Special gift?” Aaron could not believe it. But however, his voice sounded like he was jealous, as usual.“Yes, it’s a special gift for me. That’s why she asked me to be the leader. Because of that gift.” Neo starte
My Mutant System 16. Rattle
An explanation about the automatic system planted to Neo’s body suddenly made all the HumanBot inside the hall silenced. In their mind, it would be very cool to have such a power that can defeat the Greenish as big as the Tarantula Greenish alone like Neo did. However, after hearing to Hope’s point of view, almost half of them changed their mind. Knowing that they will become a fully robot fighter scared them. After all, freedom was the greatest thing that they can dream of. “All right, what’s next? It is over, right?” Aaron broke the silence with his mocking voice. He glanced to Neo who stood in front of him, battling against his own mind. Neo thought that Hope was right. Hundred percent right and it made him felt like a joke. Because he was the one who already have that system and he did not even realized that he lost control over his own body. But before Neo could think about it any further, suddenly the sound of the annoying alarm was back … ZINK! ZINK! The lights inside the

It was an attack from Trish hands. She threw a twin chakram blades that suddenly appeared when she summoned them. Her special weapon. The twin chakram was too big for the girl, but she could use it easily as if her hands were made to control them. Its sharp black blades successfully separated the rattlesnake’s new head in a second before the snake even realized that it was in danger. Whooosh! The chakram spun back to the girl and she could just catch them without getting any cut. “Thank you, Trish. That’s amazing.” Neo could not hide his amazement toward Trish’s movement. He quickly jumped forward to grab Tony’s shoulders and pulled him back before the rattlesnake monster grow back its head. “You did well. We will never know that the snake could regenerate like that if you didn’t do anything. Pull yourself together, okay?” Neo shook Tony’s shoulders to get his attention back. And he made it. Tony nodded and gulped his saliva. He looks confused but at least, his confidence was bac

The rattlesnake monster was less aggressive compared to the Tarantula. Its huge and long body moved out from the box. The green smoke was still circulating around the snake, covering the tip of its tail as if the smoke was continuously secreted through that body part. Neo and the other survivors of HumanBot moved backward to give a space for the snake in front of them. They do know that the upcoming battle required huge space because after all … anything could happened to them. Anything bad like poisonous spit from the snake or something else. They need to stay aware. “What do you want me to do?” asked Trish, her eyes widened after realizing that her strength would help Neo. She could not even stop staring to Neo’s eyes with a spark on her eyes as if she was staring at the person that she most adore. “Fight with me, by my side. Wait for my-” Neo did not continue his words because suddenly the notification distracted him once more time. [Automatic-weapon controller is ready] [Wait
