Chapter 60: Chapter 59: Shrimp and Pig’s Heart
Translator: 549690339
At Bai Qi’s command, four discs flew out from Husky’s half-body armor and landed on the ground, quickly extending into a small turret.
The mechanical folding technology was one of the things Bai Qi learned from the reference materials given by Yi Yu.
Xia Xuan, who was initially taken aback by Bai Qi’s words, was stunned for a moment, but his laughter erupted uncontrollably upon seeing the tiny turret, smaller than the foot of the Mechanical Tyrannosaurus—Sword Dragon Armor Model.
“A turret? You call this thing a turret?”
“Fierce Dragon Beast, take them out!”
Xia Xuan waved his hand, and the Fierce Dragon Beast immediately charged towards Alpha and Husky with its serrated greatsword. Alpha, seeing this, immediately prepared to fight back, but was stopped by Bai Qi.
“Beta, show them what you’ve got.”
Woof!
(Roger that!)
With a howl from Husky, the four turrets fired in unison, spewing out not shells, but small metal balls.
Seeing the metallic spheres being released from Husky’s turret, Xia Xuan’s disdain grew. The Mechanical Tyrannosaurus quickly swung its greatsword, smashing all the spheres into fragments.
Even though these metal spheres seemed to possess no offensive power, Xia Xuan would not allow any mishaps this time—he was here to redeem his former disgrace.
Unfortunately, things did not go as he had planned.
The moment the greatsword came into contact with the metal balls, they burst apart, revealing webs that flew toward the Mechanical Tyrannosaurus, covering much of its body in an instant.
However, the Mechanical Tyrannosaurus paid no heed to these webs, continuing to move as normal. However, as the number of webs increased, it was forcefully glued to the ground.
“Black Widow No.6’s stickiness has passed the test in actual combat.”
Watching the webs successfully restrict the Mechanical Tyrannosaurus’s movements, Bai Qi nodded with satisfaction and even made a note of it.
“So, you plan to restrain my Mechanical Tyrannosaurus with this?”
Xia Xuan huffed coldly. Several metal pipes extended from the body of the Mechanical Tyrannosaurus and spewed fire across the webs, quickly burning them off.
“Of course not.”
Bai Qi shrugged, snapped his fingers, and the turrets shot out countless steel balls. They landed on the Fierce Dragon Beast just before it could break free from the web restrictions.
Some landed on its surface, others on its joints, with no exceptions—all were firmly attached to it.
Bang! Bang! Bang!…
As Husky’s eyes flashed red, the steel spheres exploded one after another, causing the Mechanical Tyrannosaurus to shake violently.
“Miniature bombs? Impossible! How could something so small have this much power!”
The surprising potency of the steel sphere explosions had taken Xia Xuan off guard. The connection between the hastily assembled Sword Dragon Armor and the Fierce Dragon Beast suffered damage as a result.
However, the spheres could only damage the relatively fragile joints. The overall structure of the Mechanical Tyrannosaurus was not severely affected. “Sword Dragon Beast, dismantle!”
Xia Xuan abruptly deactivated the Sword Dragon Beast’s weapons, intending to order the Mechanical Tyrannosaurus to counterattack. However, he soon noticed that Husky had somehow reached the Mechanical Tyrannosaurus. He eyed the Mechinal Tyrannosaurus menacingly, various tools in his mechanical arm.
Awoooo!
(Dismantling brings me joy!)
Ding, dong…
To the onlookers’ astonishment, Husky swiftly disassembled the Mechanical Tyrannosaurus’s ankle, knee and limb joints…
In the blink of an eye, Husky had severed the connections throughout the Mechanical Tyrannosaurus.
“Haha… Do you think I would be defeated by the same trick twice after my last failure!”
Watching Bai Qi attempt the same tactic, Xia Xuan taunted him bitterly. He immediately sent orders to the Mechanical Tyrannosaurus’s numerous auxiliary brains. The supposed-to-be-completely-shutdown Mechanical Tyrannosaurus suddenly split apart, preparing to launch an attack on Husky.
“Uh, I suggest you not… oh, too late.”
Upon seeing Xia Xuan insisting on activating the modular components to make an offensive move, Bai Qi immediately tried to stop him. Still, the Mechanical Tyrannosaurus’s charging was too fast. Before Bai Qi could finish his words, streaks of red energy had appeared all over the Mechanical Tyrannosaurus.
Boom! Boom! Boom!
The Blast Power, agitated by the Mechanical Tyrannosaurus’s own energy, exploded instantly. This also detonated the accumulating energy, mercilessly reducing all the individual parts into fragments.
Woof! Woof, woof, woof!
(Art! This is art!)
Husky, who had detected the danger early on and hidden behind Alpha, looked at the continuously exploding Mechanical Tyrannosaurus with eyes full of longing.
When would he be able to create such art independently?
“This match is won by Bai Qi!”
While Husky was admiring his masterpiece, the referee had already made a decision.
Actually, there was nothing to decide. The Mechanical Tyrannosaurus’s every part had its own standalone energy source. They exploded when triggered by Husky’s Blast Power. Other than the primary brain housing the soul, the other parts were blown to bits.
Anyone could see who lost.
“Young Master Xia, you lost? To a dog?”
Witnessing the defeat–and a terribly disastrous one at that–of the
Mechanical Tyrannosaurus, Hua Rong and others who were originally cheering on the sidelines fell silent once again.
Awooo?
(Dog? I am a wolf!)
Husky’s ears twitched, staring back at Hua Rong with an angry look. Bai Qi, on the other hand, waved at Xia Xuan and said, “Young Master Xia, don’t forget the ton of Titanium Platinum Alloy you owe me.”
“A ton? Why don’t you rob me!”
Xia Xuan, still reeling from his second defeat, immediately snapped back to reality upon hearing Bai Qi’s words, glaring at him.
Bai Qi clicked his tongue disdainfully, saying, “Hey, didn’t you say it was free?”
Xia Xuan felt his face burning under Bai Qi’s scornful gaze, and said, “I can only give you 100KG, take it or leave it.”
Although the Titanium Platinum Alloy wasn’t the best Xia’s Group had to offer, it wasn’t something that was readily available either. The 100KG was already from his personal stash.
“Tch, I guess that will have to do.”
Bai Qi sighed somewhat reluctantly.
With only 100KG, it was unlikely to be used as a regular consumable. However, it was more than enough to build Husky a permanent half-body armor and turret model.
“Please do send the 100KG Titanium Platinum Alloy to the Beast Master Association, Young Master Xia.”
Bai Qi withdrew his pets and made his way out. As he walked out the door, he suddenly turned back.
“Oh, by the way, Young Master Xia, when are you planning our next fight? I’d like to think about what I want in advance.”
Puft!
Xia Xuan felt a surge of bitter bile rise in his chest. Hua Rong and others were so angry that they couldn’t speak, pointing at Bai Qi with wide-open eyes.
The nerve of him! What a shameless scoundrel!
