Chapter 46 Table of contents

A world where nuclear fusion energy was developed in the early days and enjoyed a much more abundant life than on Earth.

 

It was destroyed by plagues and monsters that arose from one day.

 

And just before the destruction, the last ‘assault bot’ that protected the city, CM-29.

 

It had endured until the end, but it was overloaded with non-stop battles and power was turned off.

 

That was the story of the robot lying alone among the barricades.

 

The function is intact, but it can be woken up again only with a reboot command from the commander.

 

In the original story, if you had the type of skill to operate a machine, you could revive it.

 

Isia was one of the few possessors of that skill in this world.

 

“Let’s try that robot!”

 

She scrawled on the tablet.

 

<It shouldn’t be broken… . To be in line even now.>

 

Isia’s point of view was also valid.

 

If it was too late, the ranks could not even be met, and a melee could break out.

 

But no need to worry.

 

When that works, we can stand still.

 

“hurry!”

 

The more time passes, the closer the zombies get.

 

Lee Shia touches the robot with tears in her eyes.

 

Instantly, a red light flashed on the front camera of the robot.

 

“Uh, huh?”

 

It rose from its seat with a ‘wi-ying’ sound.

 

“■■■ ■ ■■ ■■. ■■, ■■■.”

 

unknown alien language.

 

Considering that they are not attacking us, they seem to have succeeded.

 

‘I don’t know what it is.’

 

[“Assault bot activation complete. Command, waiting.” That is.]

 

‘Eh? Laura, how do you know the language here?’

 

[Actually, these guys have invaded our world.]

 

A question mark appeared in my mind.

 

I think I heard something huge.

 

For now, I decided to focus on the battle.

 

I told Isia.

 

“Senior Sia. I’ll wipe it off with that!”

 

“Meow!”

 

She answered in a rare lively tone.

 

At the same time, CM-29’s spider legs began to move.

 

wii ing.

 

The machine gun barrel rotates.

 

ride on

 

A blast of bullets hit the zombies.

 

When the ‘assault bot’ turned its upper body and fired a machine gun, the zombies fell like autumn leaves.

 

It was at the level of being crushed rather than being shot and knocked over.

 

Their bodies were torn to pieces, and fragments were scattered.

 

We all just watched in silence.

 

“Great.”

 

“Are we not going to attack too?”

 

A word of concern from Lee Sang-hyun.

 

I reassured him.

 

“Do not worry. It was activated by Shia-senpai’s ability.”

 

“what? skill… ? Is it going to be like this?”

 

I understand that he is surprised.

 

The ‘God of Machines’ controls all machinery, but Isia, whose skill level is still low, barely controls cars.

 

That ‘assault bot’ is a high-level machine even by pretending to be.

 

Normally, it should be difficult to control.

 

But what if you don’t need to steer?

 

The last order issued to CM-29 was ‘to actively protect citizens’.

 

All Isia did was turn it on and make us aware of it as citizens.

 

The control is done by the built-in AI.

 

Of course, this was also possible with skills.

 

Soon, the machine gun of the ‘Assault Bot’ stopped.

 

The battle is over.

 

We were the only ones standing on this street.

 

“■■■■ ■, ■. ■■■■.”

 

We searched the zombie’s body and got the ‘Growth Orb’.

 

There were no other useful items.

 

“Big. have ability Sweet~”

 

Lee Sang-hyun ate the beads and made an ecstatic expression.

 

“Nyan.”

 

“Shinno was right. Glad you got in!”

 

At Park Ha-yeon’s praise, I turned the ball to Lee Shi-a.

 

“Thanks to Shia-senpai, things went smoothly.”

 

“Meow? like nya. nya.”

 

“Well… I’m sorry, but I don’t know what you’re talking about.”

 

Isia took out her tablet from her luggage and started writing.

 

<No. I was so embarrassed for a moment that I couldn’t even think of a robot. I even knew it was broken. You succeeded thanks to your proper judgment!>

 

“ha ha ha. That was possible because of Shia-senpai’s skill.”

 

Me and Isia continued to pass the ball to each other in this way.

 

“The two of you will get along very well. i’ll date you yes?”

 

Lee Sang-hyun made fun of us with a playful tone.

 

Park Ha-yeon with a plump face.

 

She cut us off in a cold tone and drew our attention.

 

“Shinno. What should I do now?”

 

It was early evening as the sun was setting slowly.

 

Darkness only disadvantages us.

 

If you don’t need to move at night, it’s best to wait until tomorrow.

 

“Once we move the barricades, let’s prepare them properly and stay here for the night.”

 

I thought about going inside the building.

 

I didn’t know where and how many zombies there were.

 

I’m fine, but the party could get hurt if they were accidentally attacked.

 

Rather, it was decided that it would be more appropriate to have a barricade in the open air where the support of the CM-29 could be received.

 

We pitched a tent and prepared for camping.

 

Isia decided to watch the net with the robot.

 

She is the only one who can communicate.

 

profit.

 

Put the meat on the barbecue equipment.

 

Laura didn’t do anything, but when the meat was done, she quickly ate it.

 

“Um, this is the taste.”

 

‘this… .’

 

I couldn’t say anything, I just watched.

 

Lee Sang-hyun looked at Laura like that with joy and asked.

 

“Does my cousin brother seem to have the same type of skill as well?”

 

Laura ate the meat and nodded her head.

 

“A monster that looks like a lizard by looking at its tail? Are you a Lizardman?”

 

“What?!”

 

Laura’s face turned red.

 

She groaned and took Lee Sang-hyun’s abdomen with her horn.

 

“Ugh.”

 

“This naked monkey! I am no lizard!”

 

I flashed Laura, who was making a fuss, and set it down in front of the meat.

 

“Come on, calm down, let’s eat meat.”

 

I explained on her behalf.

 

“Laura has the ability to transform into dragon subspecies.”

 

“Ugh. that, yes sorry… .”

 

“sorry. He has no habit… .”

 

Laura opened an ax eye at my words.

 

Lee Sang-hyun was even more shocked to see that.

 

“phew.”

 

I sighed and ate the food.

 

Tobacco pulled.

 

It would be nice to drink the alcohol Lee Sang-hyun brought, but drinking alcohol in the dungeon is a bit different.

 

I’m not some kind of Russian hunter.

 

Isia savoring the meat with her tail raised up.

 

The outer boundary seemed to have been left to the robot for a while.

 

I advised her.

 

“Senior Sia. Even if it’s a little difficult, I think it would be better to keep controlling the robot. Would it be perfect for raising senior skills and proficiency?”

 

The CM-29 was programmed to listen to citizens’ orders, making it easy to maneuver.

 

Strictly speaking, the robot’s AI controls it.

 

According to the system judgment order, it is treated as the one that was controlled and the skill is given.

 

Because ‘Assault Bot’ is classified as a high level, it also gives a lot of proficiency.

 

So during the game days, I stayed here for about a week and raised my skill proficiency.

 

Now that it has become a reality, it is difficult to do so.

 

“Nah? nya.”

 

Lee Shia suddenly stared into the air.

 

She smiled immediately.

 

It was like looking at the status window.

 

<Really! Your proficiency has risen so much! How did you know all this?>

 

“It’s just a guess. It just looks like a great robot.”

 

<Thank you. How many times are you helping me today? I’ll have to control this all night long.>

 

Her judgment is right.

 

Even if I couldn’t sleep, this opportunity was rare.

 

Park Ha-yeon, who was next to me, suddenly took the tongs from me.

 

“Give me I will bake.”

 

“Uh, uh. okay. thank you.”

 

Park Ha-yeon asked while grilling the meat.

 

“Does this look very familiar to you? It looks like you’ve been in and out of the dungeon for a long time. Even if you are the same age as me.”

 

I’ve been hunting for villains rather than dungeons for a really long time.

 

It’s been over a year now.

 

“What? I was very upset too, but I didn’t show it.”

 

“really?”

 

“okay.”

 

Park Ha-yeon didn’t say anything until the meal was over.

 

We laid down our sleeping bags.

 

The night sky I looked up at while lying down was clear.

 

Maybe it was the setting that nuclear fusion energy was commercialized, so air pollution could be less.

 

Lee Shia was still playing with the robot outside the barricade, catching zombies that occasionally attacked her, and Lee Sang-hyun fell asleep and snored.

 

Park Ha-yeon suddenly opened her mouth.

 

“Shinno. You are like the main character in a novel. When I’m in trouble, they show up and help me… . While being a D-Class Awakened, I quickly climbed to B-Class… . Combat experience should be similar to mine, but it’s as good as if you’ve done this for a long time.

 

“I’m not that great.”

 

I took it in an exaggerated tone on purpose.

 

“Perhaps… Do you have anything to hide from me?”

 

“… … no.”

 

It’s been a while, but I thought about whether Park Ha-yeon would approve ‘The Dark Knight’.

 

The result is negative.

 

It’s unacceptable for her personality.

 

I changed the topic.

 

“Look at the stars over there. The sky is very clear and I can see well.”

 

“yes. I know. None of the constellations match the Earth… .”

 

We fell asleep while talking.

 

That’s how the day ended.

 

Clear the dungeon tomorrow.
