Bang!
The deafening roar echoed through the factory as the massive warhead erupted from the tube, creating a cyclone of air that carried a long, resonant sound wave.
The single-shot anti-tank shell was one of the most powerful infantry weapons, renowned for its devastating penetration ability. It could easily breach tank armor and cause a violent explosion, reducing the entire tank to fragments.
The bearded man, filled with confidence, was certain that no creature could withstand this attack.
As the rocket launched, t800 fell to the ground, rolling backward to avoid the blast, his head down. The damage to his mechanical systems had reached a critical point, impairing his sound and visual functions. This was why he hadn't yet searched for the bearded man. TX would handle the situation.
Facing the bazooka with calm determination, TX raised her hand, and her arms flowed like liquid, forming a shield in the blink of an eye.
The bearded man, though shocked by her transformation, smiled. Could a shield really block this?
The metal warhead and shield collided mid-air with a tremendous explosion, sending a wave of hot air rolling through the factory.
The bearded man was slammed against the wall by the shockwave, his heart sinking. No one could survive such an explosion.
He had seen TX form the shield in the brief seconds the rocket was in flight. The explosion at close range should have been fatal.
"Huh—" The bearded man relaxed his grip on the bazooka, feeling a sense of relief.
But suddenly, a silver-gray figure burst through the flames, leaping effortlessly two floors up to stand directly in front of him.
TX glared fiercely at him. Her body shifted fluidly, her exposed silver-gray skeleton becoming flesh again, with a thin layer of clothing appearing over it. This suit was a layer added to her night metal frame.
The bearded man was stunned as TX emerged unscathed from the explosion's center. He quickly raised the bazooka, preparing to fire again.
However, TX was faster. With a flash of cold light, she sliced the rocket launcher in half with a chainsaw. The harsh, piercing sound of the chainsaw followed.
Zizi! !
The bearded man's fear overwhelmed him. Trembling, he begged, "Don't kill me, please..."
TX did not respond. She raised the chainsaw and cut through his neck with a swift motion, the blade slicing through both the bearded man and the wall behind him.
The upper part of the wall collapsed, burying the bearded man under rubble and spilling his blood at TX's feet.
"We need to find the next chemical plant. The master ordered the creation of a night metal robot like you," t800 said as he approached, his voice blank.
"But you are the most special. Here are the three parts the master provided."
He handed over a glowing core sphere, a thin tube, and a four-pack propeller.
TX, puzzled by the necessity of these components, took them without hesitation. Her composition—a combination of alloy inner frame, ultra-dense armor, and liquid metal—was designed for resilience and adaptability, much like the T-900. Her liquid metal skin could simulate human appearance and integrate seamlessly into human activities.
TX began the installation process. She inserted the core sphere into the designated cavity, adjusted the car lights, and connected the thin tube under her right arm, integrating the thruster into her legs. Skynet's message flashed across her central CPU, her eyes now firm and expressionless.
"From today, I am Jie Luosi."
TX realized why the master provided such powerful parts. The female version of Genos began adjusting her internal structure. The sphere's wires connected to the thin tube and propellers, while her arm extended slightly with a dark yellow light crack.
Her short black hair transformed into long golden locks, and Jie Luosi's appearance shifted to a more feminine form. She lowered her head and took a deep breath.
Two jets of fire erupted from her feet, lifting her into the air. After testing her flight capabilities, she accelerated to speeds exceeding Mach.
"Give me something. You've lost the ability to fight. I'll take over."
t800 complied, throwing the backpack to Jie Luosi. She soared through the ceiling of the chemical plant, searching for alternative or repairable tools.
Bang! Buzzing--!
Sonic booms rolled through the air as Jie Luosi sped towards a distant chemical plant, crashing into local security forces.
Unlike t800, Jie Luosi's unparalleled strength allowed her to push through the factory materials and create another TX. She returned to the original plant with the new TX units.
After Skynet confirmed that all four units were operational, the doors opened, and the five Terminators entered the facility.
Xu Mo asked t800 to handle repairs and examined the four TXs. Three looked like those from the movies, but Jie Luosi intrigued him.
"Teacher Saitama, I'm enjoying this now."
"You're quite the troublemaker, Alice-chan," Skynet's little Lolita said proudly, smiling.
"Dudu"
"Xu Mo, I need your help."
"Oh? The great Tony Stark wants me, a mere comic artist, to help?"
"Damn it, I don't have time for idle talk. If you help me protect Pepper, I won't bring up that bear biscuit you sent last time."
"In the future, I'll stick to my own principles..."
"Fine, no need to be so formal."
Xu Mo happily ended the call and smiled at Jie Luosi. "Go and rest."
"Yes, master."
