Chapter 1583 Counterattack Against Diamondz -Part 28
As the two Tri-Rexes met their demise, it so happened that the one that had been in the media highlights had fallen to its knees as well. It was precisely because of the media that the Daimon Police as well as the first responders from the Daimon Military had been called in to fight against the Tri-Rex with whatever limited information that they had. Even some 'concerned' civilians came in with their guns blazing for the sake of protecting the city. (To say some was an understatement as everyone in the vicinity that holds a commander status or gun license was raring to shoot at this mechanical beast.
But that limited information was kind of common knowledge: It was to shoot something until its dead or else use stronger explosives. At the very least, the soldiers and police knew that it was killable with enough shots going into it. Or that was what the information that they had been given from the police assault squads that had seen this in action. Those Tri-Rexes were nothing in terms of defences compared to the gorilla Mechanoids that they had killed.
If it was the latter then perhaps, the entire city would not be on such a shooting spree to hunt down the Tri-Rex, which was indeed a hunting game for the entire city.
Knowing that almost everyone it encounters is an enemy, or due to how the Tri-Rex programming works the monster kills anything and everything on sight as well. Whatever that moves which included cars, humans and Mechanoids alike were all food sources. Yes, with the nanobots working extra overtime to heal from all the ongoing attacks, the Tri-Rex had resorted to resource recycling. Anything that it chomps on will be recycled into its body, and that includes the 'humans'. After all, since it had violated the Virtual Simulation code, it was able to treat the humans as regular 'codes' too and munch it into providing itself with the data to repair itself.
And with that, the Tri-Rex gained sufficient energy just to break its three heads into three separate entities. So, it's akin to having the mini Rexes running away while only one of them had the actual core. The only difference was that the core could perpetually move from one clone to another so long they intersect with each other.
This gave it time for the original Tri-Rex to move into hiding or kill stealthily in order to survive or that was the original plan. Its programming does not know that Daimon City culture, the home to one of the biggest mechanoid manufacturers had commanders filled with Mechanoids wanting to pounce on the glory of killing it. Or perhaps, it underestimated the grit of these commanders.
While Jin, the Grey Bears and the police assault squad were busy dealing with the latest threats, both civilian and public security commanders hunted down the Three separate Rexes relentlessly. While there were still causalities involved as the T-Rex Mechanoids were too prominent in both their size and ferocity, they were gunned now without mercy from sniper rifles, rocket launchers and traditional firearms.
If anything, it later became a story of the unity against threats in Daimon City which bonded their own citizens even further.
As for the last Tri-Rex Mechanoid who was still on the 35th floor of Diamondz Headquarters, Gorillo finally threw the Mechanoid into the centre of attention now that the other two Tri-Rex Mechanoids had been eliminated. Jin initially wanted to give the finishing blow but realised that it might have been better for the Daimon City peeps to end it instead.
That way, they could claim some credit for this endeavour and probably be recognised for their efforts. But Jin had other things in mind as he wanted to make the Daimon Police a participating actor in this bullshit situation they were in. That way, they could take on their revenge against the Tri-Rex Mechanoid who killed their fellow comrades and some burden lifted.
The police assault squad did not waste the chance as snipers and shooters gave their best, throwing grenades and aiming at weak points at the fallen crippled Tri-Rex who were still roaring in defiance despite its imminent death. Thus, when all of this was ongoing, Jin reunited with his two other Grey Bears sitting at the corner of the 35th floor.
"I guess you could say we have our reinforcements." Jin nodded upwards, directing it at the police assault squad which made the other two chuckle bitterly.
"What unlikely allies. Though that is assuming they will not come down here and arrest us for trespassing." Click replied while leaning her head on Tellie's shoulders.
"All the more Commander Jin wants them to be here," Tellie replied knowing that they needed someone on the other side to be their witness and support. Besides, it would definitely be heartless for them to throw the Grey Bears in a lurch after saving them multiple times again and again."
"Blah, you are right. At the very least, we did the right thing and save them. That is our bargaining chip since our oh so brilliant commander did not think of a plan to get out of this near suicidal crazy terrorist mission."
"It's worth it, alright? Old Flammet reported that the fights in the morning were sporadic. there were no all out attacks after the attempts to invade the mountain workshop and they are still holding their ground."
"If I were in the same situation as those Mechanoid Commanders after learning that upon entering the System's instances, there was no one coming out, I too would have second thoughts about allowing them to enter once more." Click grumbled and soon, they heard that the gunfire behind them had stopped.
The Tri-Rex was officially dead despite all the extra regeneration and other special privileges that had been given to it within this room that supposedly gave them an edge on the battlefield. The Police Assault Squad Captain shouted an order to hold the fire and everyone's hearts were relieved. They knew that it was officially over, and all of them breathed out a sigh of relief. The Captain then made contact with Jin as he powered down from his System Rider form and gave a salute.
In return, Jin gave a proper salute and even without talking, they knew that the Police Assault Squad Captain will have his back on this entire commotion.
