Chapter 1020: Pressuring Step by Step!

After a short conversation with Party Ace, Dolittle showed them the door.

“I’m sorry, but I’m rather busy at the moment. You should know that those three Terminators you guys just eliminated are top class research materials! Almost all the Terminators that those fools in Cyberdyne could get their hands on had been turned into scrap iron after going through high-power electricity. It’ll be a sin if I don’t take the time to study them now!”

Sheyan sighed and said with a frown, “To be honest, I’m still not sure if future Skynet will send something as powerful as a T-1000.”

“Why?” Dolittle asked doubtfully.

“Because we’ve neglected a crucial point — information that’s sent back easily will not be taken seriously. If a piece of information is too easy to get, it’s likely to be a trap!” answered Sheyan earnestly.

When Zi heard that, she seemed to have realised something. She looked at Sheyan in surprise and said, “You mean, we should….”

Sheyan laughed in response. His laughter brimmed with a feeling of confidence in his scheme.

“The TOK715 Terminator probably hasn’t sent back the information yet, has it? The barrier of space and time is definitely not so easy to break through. If it wants to communicate with future Skynet, it must wait until the next time displacement sphere opens. Since that’s the case, we should go give it a bit of pressure.”

Zi pondered for a moment before she said, “If you want to pressure the TOK715, make sure to make it realistic. We’d better create an atmosphere of life and death so it can barely escape from a desperate situation. We’ll have to trouble Mr. Dolittle to provide us with more information about this Terminator class so that we can plan better.”

“You’re completely right,” agreed Sheyan.

Five minutes later, Sheyan and Mogensha drove away in a giant truck, the type used to haul containers. To give a more vivid description, it was the kind of truck that Optimus Prime was when he was not transformed.

Perhaps it was karma. In the plot of Terminator I, the T-800 drove the same kind of truck in pursuit of Sarah Connor. Now, it’s Ace Party’s turn to chase after Skynet’s spy in this truck.

Mogensha pressed a button on the headphone he was wearing and said, “Boss, according to the information Dolittle gave us, the single white double-storey building right in front is the target’s residence. Look at the water marks and footprints at the door. The target probably just went in.”

Sheyan smirked.

“I see… Sit tight. The show’s about to begin.”

Right after Sheyan said that, he shifted into 5th gear and put the pedal to the metal. The truck’s 1,500 horsepower diesel engine roared with a terrifying noise and the vehicle accelerated to nearly 100 kilometers per hour in seemingly no time at all. It charged towards the TOK715 Terminator, Hannah’s house with no intention of slowing down at all!!!

The truck crashed into Hannah’s house with a loud bang. Wall pieces and wooden boards shattered and burst everywhere together with dust as if an explosion had taken place. The debris flew as high as 30 meters before they rained down. The furnitures and electrical appliances behind the wall were smashed dozens of meters back. The main support of the small mansion was forcefully and completely broken through by the heavyweight truck! At this point, the house had to rely on the large body of the heavyweight truck for support, or it would instantly collapse.

The two men in the cab of the vehicle, Sheyan and Brother Black, were naturally dizzy and disoriented, as well as covered in debris. Brother Black coughed and patted the dust off his body as he yelled, “Godammit, I’m never riding in your car again. Ever.”

Sheyan just kicked Mogensha out (literally) and threw himself in the opposite direction, only to hear a series of muffled sounds, like the sound a machine gun with a silencer would make. He turned back and saw a row of neat bullet holes on the cab. After that, a numbness spread through Sheyan ‘s right arm. Blood was gushing out from three bullet wounds there.

Although the TOK715 Terminator could not obtain powerful future weapons from Skynet, it was able to utilise the knowledge in its microchip to modify the firearms in this era so as to greatly enhance their power. Otherwise, it would be impossible to cause such serious damage to Sheyan using a submachine gun.

Mogensha had also launched a quick counter-attack of his own. In the rolling process, he threw a smoking gun grenade without aiming properly at all. The storeroom next door collapsed in the violent explosion. However, it was not long before he was forced back again. His face was charred by smoke and the camouflage attire on his upper body was in tatters. He had definitely been shot quite a number of times.

Mogensha did not have Sheyan’s endurance, so he immediately took out some bandages to dress the wounds. He then gritted his teeth and began to fire back.

Of course Sheyan could not just sit back and watch Mogensha being suppressed by enemy fire. He saw a large stone to the side that must weigh at least fifty kilograms and rolled a few times to get to it. The muscles all over his body contracted like springs, then expanded in a sudden burst of force to enable him to forcefully lift the stone up!

At the same time, due to the intense muscle contraction and expansion, the bullets previously shot into his body were all forced out and fell to the ground. More blood spurted out from the wounds as a result. Sheyan aimed the stone at a distance, ignoring his injuries, and threw it!

The TOK715 did not dare to take the projectile head on; it disappeared into the darkness in a flash. The stone flew past the spot where the Terminator was and flattened the car at the back. Sheyan and Mogensha gave chase, but not eight meters later, the TOK715 suddenly emerged from a dark spot in the corner carrying a shoulder-mounted rocket launcher. It triggered the launcher, dropped it, and ran away!

A small scattershot missile traveled through the darkness, leaving behind it a long trail of smoke. It appeared deceptively slow, but it was actually travelling at a high speed. Sheyan could instantly tell that the missile would be deadly; he immediately shielded Mogensha with his own body and pushed Mogensha down!

The missile exploded in the air about six meters above them. The triangular iron pieces, steel beads and other shrapnels inside scattered at high speed towards every corner in the surrounding area. They made some terrible sparks in the darkness.

If a normal person was here, they would have had a thousand holes in their body right now. As formidable as Sheyan was, he groaned despite himself. Not only were his ears buzzing from the loud explosion, his back was also in terrible pain.

Although the Terminator Hannah managed to send Sheyan and Mogensha into a sorry state with her offensive strikes, Mogensha had also managed to fire a triple burst shot the moment the Terminator lifted the portable missile launcher. Two of the bullets hit the TOK715 Terminator in the face!

Such injuries were insignificant to the Terminator, but they would be effective in preventing the TOK715 to disappear into the crowd. This TOK715 Terminator took the form of a beautiful woman so it was originally not too difficult for it mix with a crowd and make its escape, but with the two gun wounds on her face, even a child would be alarmed when they saw her.

Sheyan climbed up like nothing had happened and continued his pursuit. The situation right now was rather strange; an authentic human like him was frantically hunting down an authentic Terminator, as if he was the monster made of metal instead. Mogensha followed after him.

It did not take long for Mogensha to catch up to Hannah. He used some precise shots aimed at specific places to slow down the opponent’s progress. Thanks to Mogensha’s interference, Sheyan soon chased Hannah down. He did not hesitate to activate ‘Hornrage’, charging at Hannah with tremendous speed!

Even after Sheyan caught up to it, Hannah still maintained the chilly demeanor of a Terminator. It instantly pulled out a sharp dagger and executed a backhand stab. However, her stab was mechanical and rigid as the TOK715 Terminator was not proficient at close combat.

Sheyan easily avoided it, then countered with a violent kick to Hannah’s abdomen. The sensation transmitted back through Sheyan’s foot felt no different from a normal person’s belly, unlike in the previous battle with the T-910 — the moment he grabbed the T-910’s wrist, he could instantly tell the difference.

According to the information provided by Dolittle, the TOK715 class Terminators were meant to imitate human beings as best they could, and would even use seduction to achieve their objectives. That was why even their internal parts were made to be similar to real humans.

Sheyan’s kick was heavy. The force completely penetrated through the outer layer of artificial skin protecting Hannah’s abdomen, as well as the inner artificial muscles, creating a deep depression in the Terminator’s belly! If it were not for the various extremely sturdy components in its body, its internal parts would be in a mess right now! Even so, one could see electric sparks leaking out from Hannah’s back due to the damage to its battery, as well as the blue smoke from the burning of various components.

Hannah was kicked about eight meters away. It still tried to escape after getting back up, but strong disturbances and fluctuations had started appearing in its infrared vision. The images its microprocessor received had also become distorted. Those were sure signs of power supply failure. The cooperation between Sheyan and Mogensha was truly destructive.

Hannah’s back was suddenly hit by a gun grenade. The skin on its back, which was originally pale and delicate, was instantly blackened by smoke and fire. The tremendous impact sent it tumbling into a deserted warehouse nearby. Sheyan wished to chase after it into the warehouse, but a strong sense of danger stopped him in his track!
