BXBX NOVEL Chapter 573 Piggycupines
Chapter 573 Piggycupines
That was currently the sole defence against a monster of that enormous size as it oinked in anger, unable to catch the tiny little fly that had offended them.
"What exactly did you do?!" Jin asked as the most dangerous being seemed to be occupied for the moment. He sent his Maqi into the Titan Knight and immediately aimed at the Piggycupines, killing each with just one shot of the prototype beam rifle.
While it reduced some of the numbers, the others started to get more bloodthirsty at the loss of their friends. It was not exactly very pleasing to see an angry horde of them running towards the Panda cultivator. (Not to mention, the prototype rifle was heating up real fast with the continuous shooting.)
"I just did what Chieftain Skitter advised me to do. Stab one of them in the ass to attract their attention!" Lynn laughed as the Hover Bike barely scraped through a jump attack from the smaller Piggycupines. (Even with just one hit and Lynn would be a goner!)
"System! Give Lynn the permission!" Jin ordered as he kept on channelling his Maqi for the Titan Knight to shoot and reduce the horde size of giants.
"Permission for what?!" Lynn asked in a confused state when she heard Jin through the intercom, and suddenly a large digital button appeared right in front of her screen of her GPS installed in the V2 Combat Bike.
Without any hesitation, she slammed her fist into it while doing a backflip manoeuvre based on the warning that was given by the System through her helmet.
The Hovering Bike rose vertically upwards, and as it flipped to the back, the storage drive within the bike started to spew out attachments which Lynn had no idea she even possessed. Lynn thought she had gone through all the options before engaging the Piggycupines, but iJin it seems that Jin had been hiding this from her.
Suddenly, a glass dome emerged from the back of the V2 Combat Bike covering her and moving her seat forward a little, causing her to be in a prone position facing the front of the bike. Once the glass dome had secured Lynn, the Modular Attachments that magically appeared from the bike\'s storage drive slammed itself onto the bike, causing it to have hands and bipedal legs.
For all she knew, the bike had turned into somewhat of a humanoid mecha which Jin dubbed it V2 Bike Mecha. (Oh how original~) The controls were similar to driving the bike, but more consoles were up and running, giving her the ability to hold onto a weapon.
"WHAT? Weapons?! If I knew I would have asked Qiu Yue for some advice!" Lynn panicked a little, shaking the controls rather violently since she felt powerless without the knowledge of the new Mecha that she was driving.
Jin then realised Lynn was not able to quickly adapt to the situation. He thought that the surprise would empower her further than making her anxious.
So, he quickly ordered the Bike Mecha to go into a partial autopiloting mode, and that would allow the Sub System to aid Lynn in her endeavour to survive when she unintentionally entered into a panicked manner. With the Bike Mecha mode on, the Sub System was able to retrieve an assortment of weapons to be used against the horde of giant piggycupines.
Weapons like an autocannon and RPG launchers were taken out and used mercilessly on the horde. Thankfully, all the piggycupines had was just a layer of skin with lots of fats in it, so the conventional \'large sized\' bullets and missiles were still sufficient to take them down. (Just that it required more than usual to make sure the giants dies.)
In the meantime, the System was processing and analysing the Piggycupine\'s body structure from the live samples captured by Jin as well as the dead ones which the Sub System assisted in procuring. It eventually was able to make a calculated guess for the several weak spots of the Piggycupine horde.
But in that short period of time, they had already reached melee range with the Titan Knight. Thankfully it had the size advantage against the small giants. Dropping its prototype beam rifle due to overheating, the Titan Knight pulled out his sword and shield, cutting piggycupines down and ensuring that they disappeared into the System\'s grasp.
Eventually, Lynn calmed down again and took full control over the Bike Mecha, providing better support than what the Sub System was offering. (After all her Sub System was never intended for fighting purposes.)
"Sorry Jin for blanking out like that," Lynn said in an embarrassed tone through the intercom as she did not expect her body to enter such a state by the sudden transformation.
"No, it\'s my fault that I did not tell you in advance. I thought we wouldn\'t need to use that because the power consumption of that particular mode is extremely draining to your bike\'s battery pack. There are two more backup batteries within the storage drive, but you would not last another five more minutes. It\'s still a proto-" Before Jin could finish his sentence, the enraged Father Piggycupine finally managed to squeeze his way through the door by breaking the sides of the doors and did a highly terrifying low pitch oink. (Unbelievably, the wood splinters from the door killed one or two of the piggycupines.)
Unlike the small piggycupines, the Father Pigcupine knelt a little while aiming his back towards the Bike Mecha and Jin\'s Titan Knight. Without much warning, large spike projectiles came flying towards the both of them, and there was no way to defeat it unless the Titan Knight had more mobility in its current form.
The only thing it could do was use its colossal tower shield to block, and maybe an opportunity to possibly parry the first attack while Jin had already commanded the System to teleport Lynn out of Giant World to get her out of harm\'s way.
Thankfully, the spike projectile missed the disappearing Lynn and killed an unfortunate offspring of the Father Pigcupine instead, but the Titan Knight\'s shield was penetrated by the force of the projectile.
If not for Jin\'s quick thinking, the Titan Knight might have most likely lost an arm. Jin channelled whatever Maqi he had into the shield, slowing the destruction down a little with multiple energy barriers before the spike projectile penetrated it.
"System! Get us out of here now! We don\'t have the firepower to defeat that!" Jin shouted in his cockpit as he threw the shield away and held the Colossal Blade with two hands hoping it could stop the next incoming spike projectile before it tore the Titan Knight and him into pieces.
In an instant, the System was able to recreate the portal underneath the Titan Knight, allowing both of them to drop into the portal. (Along with some extra goodies that came charging towards it.) Just when Jin thought he was prepared based on the data he had, he wasn\'t.
"Note to self. NEVER underestimate the Giant World."
