Chapter 17 After Smith agreed that the Midnight Hunters will take Smtih's goodies with them along with Meta, there is no need to pack up and immediately left. Even before Mad Hat Camile asked, they already packed everything. Well, there's not much to pack anyway. The goods are arranged orderly in which there would be no hassle in moving them. Of course, that is Smith's thoughts. After all, only he can give that authority to them since he is the boss. Meanwhile, all in all, Smith had two ships. One D-Link plane and one All Terrain Walker. Then, the Midnight Hunters also have one D-Link plane. Of course, since the Midnight Hunters are his men, their D-Link plane is partially his. "Reporting, the Midnight Hunters are ready for the scout mission." This is a normal procedure that Mad Hat Camile and the others will undergo before they will officially start their mission. "Mad Hat Camile, you're gorgeous as ever." That is a compliment, but Mad Hat Camile was creeped out. 'This perv
Chapter 18The heat signatures on Meta's map rushed towards their location.In the next second, Meta and Mad Hat Camile caught sight of what is rushing towards their location."Robots?" Mad Hat Camile said out loud stunned. However, that is not what she had in mind.'Meta's cousins? There are three on the map.'Indeed, three robots are rushing towards their location, the same number as the heat signatures on Meta's map.Although robots are made up of cold metal, they still have heat signatures.Well, the reaction of their power supplies and batteries gives off heat that would then be seen as heat signatures.Of course, there are also robots who could partially conceal their heat signature with the help of their chassis. One of such robots is Meta.However, there is a limit to which they could conceal their heat signatures.When their power supplies and their weapons are roused, they would naturally heat up. This would then cause their chassis to reach their limits and unable to contai
Chapter 19Federant's speculation is not based on nothing. He had gathered many data and observed many proofs.Most of the data that Federant had gathered is from Smith's weapon business.Smith did not seem to be cautious enough. Well, in the first place, he did not even intend to hide. All Smith wanted is to avoid the scans of antiviruses.Meanwhile, the weapons that Smith sold are somewhat suspicious. Or rather, at least, that's what Federant thought.The World Federation had its own hub of weapons. At the same time, they are also monitoring the hubs that don't belong to them.However, recently, the sales of those hubs plummeted. But strangely, there seems to be no decline in the number of weapons on the frontline.One must know that there are many cases in which weapons needed to be replaced. However, the weapon hubs of the World Federation did not receive sales from that case.At first, this does not seem to be suspicious. However, this cannot go on in the long run. Or rather, it
Chapter 20Bang! Bang! Bang!Three shots but only one drone missile was taken down.However, that is not Parker's concern.'Meta's voice and behavior changed.'Parker noticed it after Meta saved their ship from crashing headfirst. However, he did not think much. He thought it is just a lag in the system. But when Meta called him, he began to doubt.The times when Meta spoke could be counted with one hand. In fact, it is as if Meta never spoke at all.'It's not a system lag, right? System lag only happens for a short time, but this… impossible. System lag could not cause that much change.'"Parker, what are you doing? It would not cause you harm if you miss, right?" Meta said.'There, Meta does not sound like Meta again. Meta would never say those things. But fuck, that damned robot is right. But I shall not let you pass. Just you wait.'Parker then aimed his Fire God's Wrath and shoot toward one of the drone missiles heading towards them.Bang!One shot one kill!Indeed, Parker manage
Chapter 21"They have taken down six drone missiles in an instant?"From one of the three D-Link enemy planes of Smith and the others, a man named Kynon is shocked."But I will not give up.""Wolf, tell the other two of our D-Link planes to launch twelve drone missiles in total. Four from each plane."Wolf is the copilot of Kynon.Kynon is not alone in this mission. He brought with him five others from their squad with the reason, "I will kill Midnight Hunters today and let them reunite with brother Dickinson."There's no doubt about it, Kynon and the others are from the same squad as Dickinson. The name of their squad is the Bullseye Angels.They might not be angels, but they are definitely bullseyes. Especially with their vast number of D-Link planes. All in all, they have ten D-Link planes.Now, they are one of the rich ass squads out there.One must know that a D-Link plane is graded B. And such a plane costs a rather lump sum of money. But the Bullseye Angels have a total of ten.
Chapter 22It did not take long for the Midnight Hunters to face their enemies."Arm the Phantom Cannon and brace yourself... this will be a rough ride," Smith yelled at the top.The three D-Link planes are already up ahead of them. Just like them, the D-Link planes of the bullseye Angels are ready to fire.Whoosh!The first one that came to greet them is the energy beam that Kynon is piloting. Fortunately, it was missed. However, it is then followed by the energy beams from the other two D-Link planes.Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!Bang! Bang!The whooshing sound is the sound indicating that the energy beams from the Bullseye Angels missed while the banging sound is because Smith and the others' D-Link plane is hit."Fuck! This is where Damion is good."Mad Hat Camile, the pilot, grit her teeth. Although she is doing a rather good job by evading most of the energy beams, she is not satisfied with her performance. After all, she knows that if it is Damion who is piloting the plane,
Chapter 23The drone missiles that Smith hacked hit the three D-Link planes. Two of which are obliterated while the last one is about to crash head-on.The plane that barely managed to survive is the D-Link plane that Kynon is piloting."Shit! Wolf, we did not see that coming," Kynon said as he tries his best to stabilize their crashing D-Link plane.However, he is not oblivious that his action is futile."The Phantom Cannon is already useless, and the armor of the plane is already broken. The Midnight Hunters could hit us at any time…"Meanwhile, Mad Hat Camile, Parker, and Scarlet are rejoicing as they survive this calamity.They could not deny that Meta is indeed full of surprises."Who would have thought that Meta had a trick like that?" Scarlet said."That scrap Meta, I thought he had surpassed me at being a sharpshooter. It turned out that he is hacking the drone missiles and directing them to his bullets."Despite the 'hardship' that Parker had experienced from Meta, he could n
Chapter 24The government has always been like this.They silently go against the rules that they have imposed for the reason that it is for the greater good. Well, it probably is. Or not."The World Federation trust me that much? Are they not afraid that I might do the thing that they feared?" Federant asked."The thing that they feared? Who knows. But they probably have a backup," Jam replied."Yes, they always do," Fiend seconded."Now Jam, I have the general location of one of the variables. I need you to look for him."Federant started giving his commands."Fiend, I have already alerted the federation about the shady business of the first variable. I need you to make sure that the courier service will not get involved with the target.""Then, finally, I want the two of you to keep all your attention to the first variable. No matter what, as long as it will not cause us too much, ignore the second variable."The two A.I.s nodded in response."Federant, with that, said, do you have
