Nouel was not at all surprised when more than twenty cyborgs arrived at the location. He remained calm, as if welcoming their arrival with his expression.In response to the arrival of the men confirmed to be cyborgs, Nouel quipped, “Well, it’s amusing to see someone admitting they’re foolish.”“That’s not what I meant, damn it, you’re really asking for trouble,” the cyborg man immediately got angry with what Nouel said. He had just arrived, and he was already mocked, making him furious.“That’s what you said earlier, claiming to be foolish.” Nouel teased the man even more.“You bastard.” The leader of the group gritted his teeth, clenching his right hand made of machinery.Nouel himself reacted casually, not responding to the stranger’s actions.“By the way, why did you come here? This isn’t a party for fools and an ugly face contest,” Nouel said casually, mocking the cyborgs who had just arrived. Even though their numbers exceeded twenty, he remained relaxed. He had faced many rebel
The thugs or, more precisely, the cyborg thugs had various branches and levels. This time, Nouel wanted to go directly to their headquarters, where the main and most significant boss resided. He aimed to settle everything so that no more groups of people would disturb his peaceful time.Having successfully confronted and forced the previous cyborg leader, Nouel was guided to the central headquarters where the top leader of these cyborgs was located. As expected by Nouel, the place was not much different from the buildings standing along the city wall area – messy and uncared for.Inside a relatively large hall, some ordinary residents seemed to be waiting in line. One person was kneeling in front of a man not wearing a shirt, with his upper body visibly filled with machine components, clearly portraying the appearance of a cyborg.“What kind of boring drama is this?” Nouel commented in his mind, expressing his opinion on the ongoing scene.“Boss, we detected some dangerous firearms. W
Seeing that only one opponent remained, the cyborg leader, Nouel immediately glared at the man.“Come on, I’m tired of small talk with you,” Nouel challenged the top leader.“Don’t be arrogant just because you’ve managed to bring down my people,” said the man, still confident in his ability to win despite witnessing his opponent’s skills. He pulled out a machine gun capable of firing many bullets at once. Nouel smirked mockingly.“Feel free to smile, this is your last day in this world.” Proudly, the man activated the machine gun, firing large bullets rapidly. Nouel, activating his shield, walked calmly despite many bullets hitting the shield.The machine gun could shoot fast and powerful bullets, capable of penetrating concrete or metal walls with a certain thickness. However, it turned out the weapon wasn’t strong enough to penetrate Nouel’s created shield.“Damn, how does he have such a strong shield?”Simultaneously, the cyborgs Nouel had previously knocked down began to rise one
Nouel swiftly navigated through the slum area, intrigued by the sudden information. He ran, avoiding every human and robot that was active at that moment.Nouel came to a halt and stared at the holographic screen that appeared before him. “Can you explain more about what you’ve found?”“This is a power surge from the main energy source that was once used by humans as the primary reactor to activate war robots,” the AI assistant continued to provide information about the detected anomaly.“War robots, in other words, this involves radiation and significant explosive power?” Nouel asked, expressing concern.“Exactly.”“What happened?” Nouel inquired again.The AI Assistant then reported, “Something accidentally triggered this energy source. Possibly a slight vibration, air temperature, or a mouse passing by unintentionally. In essence, there’s a high probability that this energy source will explode.”“So, this energy source needs to be dealt with as quickly as possible. Whether I like i
Just emerging from the underground area where he exited the abandoned house, Nouel was greeted by several cyborg thugs he had defeated earlier. They were accompanied by two well-dressed men—obviously, these were city officials—and armed bodyguards, along with robots units.It was unclear how they managed to locate Nouel. Whether there were traces he left behind, information from the residents, CCTV monitoring, or some tracking method capable of finding Nouel.Nouel deactivated his helmet and the oxygen mask he wore. He whistled upon witnessing the arrival of these people, the number this time was not as large as before, but these individuals held positions of authority.“You came much faster than I expected, two minutes earlier to be precise,” Nouel murmured softly when he noticed the many people surrounding him, denying him access to escape.“Is he the one?” One of the men in formal attire, resembling a city official, pointed towards Nouel.“Yes, he’s the one, the troublemaker,” said
Nouel holstered his weapon in back, then lazily scratched his head. Nevertheless, he still introduced himself.“My name is Nouelvaegnr Brysthiersk, Captain of the Wolf team, a special anti-terrorist and national security force. Lycaelus City Division.” Nouel introduced himself while shouldering his large weapon. Hearing this, the two men suddenly became frightened, they had dealt with the wrong person.“What?” both men asked simultaneously.“Sir, we made a mistake, forgive me for not recognizing you.” Peter immediately crawled and prostrated himself in front of Nouel. Bernard did the same. The cyborg thugs who were still conscious after the previous attack looked shocked to see their revered leaders behaving like this.“Sir, this is just a small misunderstanding, please don’t be offended,” Bernard muttered softly, immediately adopting a sycophantic attitude.“Indeed, it was just a misunderstanding, we didn’t know whom we were dealing with. Please forgive our ignorance.”Hearing those
Since there were no emerging threats in the city, Nouel allowed the Lycaelus city ambassadors to be guarded and protected by the prepared security and their personal security details. At that moment, Nouel was inside his apartment, taking a rest after all the incidents. Nouel had also removed all his armor. Actually, the armor he wore couldn’t be taken off easily, it had specific mechanisms and special tools that needed to be used.Nouel, while observing the buildings outside the window, found the lights in the city beautiful, casting a captivating glow. He contacted Vera and Drax.“Captain,” Drax greeted first.“How’s your day? Are you enjoying the tour in Deliphora City?” Vera inquired.“Not entirely disappointing, I’ve had some fun.” Nouel answered the question. Then, before anyone else could speak, Nouel continued, “It seems everything is going well. I haven’t received any calls.”Earlier, Nouel had instructed Vera that if anything happened, he should be contacted. It turned out t
Unbeknownst to them, a few days passed by smoothly during the mission, with no obstacles encountered. However, Nouel couldn’t identify the drone attackers, and there were no updates on the rebel activities since the last battle.Nouel even received information that there had been no related rebel activities for the past few days.Their activities in Deliphora City had concluded, and now Nouel was preparing for departure, getting ready to return to Lycaelus City. At that moment, they were on their way to the airport. Nouel, along with other team members, was on a vehicle with an open cargo bed—a four-wheeled vehicle with large-sized wheels, slightly resembling a bullet.“Huh, finally, this mission will be over soon!” Nouel exclaimed loudly, sitting on the front roof of the vehicle with his legs intentionally hanging over the front windshield. Behind him, Vera stood, monitoring the surroundings, then crossed her arms over the open cargo bed’s boundary and the vehicle’s roof.Nouel then
