Chapter 1823: Keep Moving
Chapter 1823: Keep Moving
After Benladra gave them her Anti-Mold, everyone's bodies quickly regained all their former energy and even their anorexic physique disappeared. Although there was still something that made them look a bit weird, perhaps too tired, they were still themselves, right there, right now!
"Everyone! You're okay?!"
"Emil, it's really you..."
"The boy we saw in that dream?"
"You've come to save us?!"
"No, many of them came, not only him..."
"Our saviors... you were real all along? Not just dreams and delusions?"
Most of them couldn't believe they've been rescued; after seeing so many of them die over and over again across many years, escaping had become nothing but a fleeting dream that would never be fulfilled.
"Yeah! I'm glad you're okay!" said Benladra. "I've modified the Anti-Mold within you to slowly meld with your bodies, so after some time it'll fully disappear, and you'll stay all healthy and fine. Perhaps very energetic, but I hope that's ok?"
"It sure is, Benladra, you're incredible!" Emil said. "Thank you so much for everything... no, everyone here, really, thank you!"
"A-Ah, it's nothing, really..." Benladra giggled a bit embarrassedly, blushing. "Anyway, we should get going, aren't there more people that is like this around the lab?"
"Yeah, right, there's at least three more rooms full of people..." said Emil.
"Done."
At the same time, Kate was done with her hacking, as all the robots, even the huge Sentinel, were now below her control.
"I've recruited them... it took a while, but it's done, let's go now." Kate seemed confident now, as she flew over the shoulders of the sentinel.
"Yeah, let's hurry, we don't have much time, do you hear that?!" Miranda asked.
"Hear what...?" Benladann wondered, before...
RUMBLE!
ВАААМ!
CRAAASH!
Tremendously loud tremors and earthquakes could be heard all across the laboratory, although they all originated from where Drake had gone to.
"He's fighting something on another level entirely..." said Miranda. "Drake, I hope he's ok!"
"He'll definitely be alright," Benladann smiled, confident on her husband. "Don't worry about him, we should get moving!"
Although she was confident and said that, deep down, because she loved him, she still felt slightly worried about Drake. It was impossible for her to not worry; he was her beloved husband.
"Hang in there, Drake...!"
As they ran outside the room with the people they rescued moving on their own or being carried by the robots, they rushed downstairs, finding another army of robots with huge guns waiting for them.
BAANG! BAANG! BAANG! BAANG!
"Ahh, too many! I can't hack them right away like this..." Kate sighed. "Go! Destroy them for now!"
The robots that weren't protecting people quickly went to fight the other enemy machines, shooting their heads and other weak spots and acting absolutely mercilessly.
CLASH! CLASH! CLASH!
CRASH!
As the machines fought against one another Kate summoned more of them through Silvy and her own abilities and powers, copying the structure and toughness of this trial's machines and easily reproducing it through her machine creation powers.
This way, she was able to reinforce the strength of her machines several times over, making them al as strong as Rank 10 Upper Stage, and some even as high as Peak Stage!n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om
"Kate's sure amazing, but we can't just watch here, we're running against time right now!" said Benladann. "Emil, go with my daughter and the spirits to free the other people within this floor! Are they all here?"
"Yes, every room in here!" said Emil. "But I can sense that there's a lot of robots, they're coming here over the noise!"
"Perfect!" Benladann took her blazing divine axe Rita and half of her chaotic death axe Hel and imbued them with her powerful Divine Chaotic Draconic Titan Aura, turning Rita's crimson flames into purple and black color. "We'll distract and fight all the robots and you two go free everyone! Miranda, right by my side! Don't let these machines touch little Kate."
"Okay then!" nodded Miranda, quickly shapeshifting and becoming half insectoid, gaining the powers and immense durability and strength of the swarming insectoid aliens they had fought before. "Let's mess things up!"
Benladann and Miranda jumped into action, covering the areas Kate's machines couldn't and tearing to shreds any robot that got in their way.
The bullets were hard and pierced through most defenses, but through smartly using the Tiamat Shield, they were able to offset the massive damage of these divine bullets, reaching the long-ranged robots and killing them instantly.
As they saw them fighting, Benladra and Emil looked at one another's eyes and nodded.
"Then let's go!" said Benladra. "Emil, I'll carry you because you're too slow!"
"Okay!" Emil nodded, only to scream as a giant hand made of light grabbed him, emerging from Benladra's Divine Aura. "Ah, this is a bit awkward!"
"Don't worry! It's just for now!"
Benladra ran through the corridors, sliding through the machines, destroying them, and more, as she noticed Kate's machines quickly following them and destroying their foes.
"It's our duty to protect you brats, so don't be too reckless!"
"You must hurry. The machines are becoming faster."
At the same time, Belle and Gabriel also transformed into larger, and stronger versions of themselves, using their powers to defend the kids.
And then, they noticed a small Robot resembling Kate made entirely out of silver steel and
blue neon light.
"Emil, Benladra, I'll go with you through this!"
And even more, they heard Kate's voice through it.
"Kate?!" Benladra asked.
"Yes it's me," Kate nodded. "It's a special Avatar I've been designing for some time. It is much stronger than any of my other machines, and I've managed to reinforce its toughness and power thanks to the technology I absorbed from the machines of this world."
"Oh that's really nice!" Benladra celebrated. "Will you help us hack the machines or the
doors?"
"I'm on it already," Kate said, her luminescent eyes glowing neon blue in color.
"Emil, which room is it?" Kate asked, as they ran through the corridors while Kate fired powerful beams of electricity from her little mechanical hands.
BOOM! BOOM! BOOM!
"Over there! That one!"
Emil pointed at the left door, as Kate nodded, sending a shockwave of hacking signals.
FLASH!
Suddenly, the mechanical door instantly opened, as everyone ran inside.
