Looking at his stat, Pablo shook his head slightly and sighed. He needed to have a robot for him to begin his journey as a robot fighter.

For the past three days, they've tried every possible means to get a robot but everything came to avail.

'If I had this system in the city….. I won't be in this backward town.' He mused, rubbing his temple.

With the duel fast approaching, the pressure on their head was increasing every day. And witht he cruelty of the Vulture gang, if they failed to show up for the duel.

They'd better escape from the town.

"What a mess?" He thought out loud.

Creak!

The sound of footsteps came from the entrance and the door was opened. Isadora and the others came into the room with tired faces.

'Huh!'

Fabian sucked in cold breath as he slumped into the chair. "How can we be so unlucky. When we decided to create a guild and spread our fame throughout the town. The Vulture gang came to challenge us….." He complained with a tired expression.

Looking at their tired and dejected face, Pablo didn't need to be told that their hunt for a fighter robot was fruitless.

"What are we going to do now…. Can we not continue with the challenge?" Kaida asked with a low voice.

Hearing this, the group rolled their eyes and looked at Kaida as if they were looking at a fool.

Seeing their gaze, Kaida realized her blunder and averted her gaze and looked at the ceiling.

"The weather is quite hot.'' She whispered, fanning her face with her hand.

For a couple of minutes, the group descended into a state of silence as they were lost in thought. Can they go and buy a useless robot to fight against the ruthless gang?

Hell No!

Thus, they needed at least a robot that could at least receive a punch or two before they were defeated. But where are they going to find such a robot?

That was a one million dollar question that no one had an answer to.

Pablo sighed continuously as he was dejected and furious. He wanted to vent his anger against the Vulture gang but knew he dared not.

Thus, he could only bury the grievance in his heart while gnashing his teeth.

Bang! Bang!

A loud bang came from the outside and the expression of Pablo and the others turned unsightly.

"These motherfucker….." Cedric gnashed his teeth, veins protruded on his forehead.

Since the Vulture gang issued the challenge, they've been harassing them every day. Thus, frustrating them to no end.

"I heard you're looking to buy a fighter robot?" Ward's voice came from outside.

"I have a better solution for you…. Give up on the challenge and tell the world you're a loser and disband your group" He said, laughing evilly.

"In your dream!" Isadora said with a cold voice.

"Instead of you coming here to behave like a clown why don't you think of how you're going to stop us from kicking your ass for the second time, loser."

Hearing this, veins protruded from Ward's forehead and his eyes bloodshot. He opened his mouth to refute Isadora but no word came out of his mouth.

"You can waggle your mouth now, but when I defeat you…. You'll regret saying this today." Ward said furiously and stump off.

Inside the building, everyone looked at Isadora as if they were looking at another person. Hence, when she saw their gaze, the corner of her lips curled up.

"What?" She asked.

Everyone averted their gaze and kept quite. Ward shenanigans only lasted for a couple of seconds in their heart before they were back to their main problem.

Where are they going to find a fighter robot?

Days wisp by gradually and the days of the duel was fast approaching while Pablo and his team had yet to find a fighter robot.

Moreover, the Vulture gang voluntarily publicized the challenge, making it quite impossible for the five to avoid the challenge.

Besides, Ward wanted to make them the joke of the town when he defeated them hands down.

"There are only two days left?" Cedric said in frustration with a hint of panic in his eyes.

It was not only him that was panicking. The other three were panicking. They had tried all their possible best and even tried to borrow a robot from people but the Vulture gang deterred the people from borrowing them.

Besides, their families couldn't help them since none of them had a fighter robot.Thus, leaving only them in the storm that was about to swallow them.

Wallowing in sorrow and anger, the five people inside the room had restless expressions.

What should they do now?

Suddenly, Kaida's eyes brightened up a bit before the little light in her eyes died off and she sighed loudly.

"How can we find a usable fighter robot in the junkyard?" She muttered in sorrow.

"What do you say?" Pablo asked, standing on his feet with bright eyes.

Watching the sudden change on Pablo's face, the others raised their brow and looked at him for a moment before they turned to look at Kaida.

"What's going on?" Isadora asked.

"Tell me what you just said?" Pablo asked once again.

Kaida couldn't understand why Pablo was getting worked up for something meaningless.

"I said we can't find any usable robots in the junkyard." She replied casually.

"There is a junkyard around here?" He asked with his voice raising an octave.

"Yeah… I heard from my father that there is a junkyard a couple of miles from our town."

"Then what are you waiting for… Let's get going." Pablo said hurriedly.

"Who can tell me what the hell is going on?" Fabian asked, a bit confused.

"You will all know when we get to the junkyard."

Kaida looked at the serious look on Pablo's face and her heart skipped a beat.

'Is it possible for us to find a robot in the junkyard?'
