Chapter 172 - I’ve Finally Found You

Peter was about to ask No. 0 to control the smart mecha and chase after the mutants, but what No. 0 said made him very anxious.

“Master, we’ve already accepted the mission. We can’t change our route at will, or we’ll attract the investigation of the Enforcer.”

“Damn it!”

Peter didn’t expect things to turn out like this, but he also knew that this couldn’t be blamed on No. 0. After all, the mission he had just accepted had been issued by the system of the Mechanical City. Thus, the smart mecha was not allowed to refuse the mission.

Peter had no choice but to watch the figures of the two mutants disappear from his field of vision.

“Master, don’t worry. I’ve marked the location of those two mutants. As long as they don’t leave the detection range, we can find them in the Mechanical City.”

Peter was angry when No. 0 finished speaking. It seemed that No. 0 had a way of dealing with this long ago. If he only told him about this now, it was probably because he had been learning human behaviour as well.

“No. 0, the next time you speak, you have to finish your sentence in one breath. Don’t imitate humans and leave half of your sentence unspoken.”

Then, Peter urged No. 0 to operate the smart mecha and rush to Warehouse No. 122 as soon as possible. Then, they took an energy block from a mechanical human.

When Peter saw the energy block they would be delivering, he realized that this energy block was different from what he had seen before. This energy block was very small, but very dense. The most direct indication of this was that the energy block was very heavy.

No. 0 operated the smart mecha to place the energy block in its storage area. The display screen of the smart mecha immediately displayed the weight of the energy block, which was 155kg.

The weight of this energy block was more than double that of the energy block used by the Federation, but its size was only one-third of that of the Federation’s energy block.

The difference in technology between the two cities was not something that the technology of the human Federation could surpass. Although the Federation was superior to the Mechanical City in terms of the number of humans, compared to mutated creatures, the human Federation was still inferior in terms of numbers.

There were also different races and different types of living creatures in this world. These creatures were competitors, yet they also used one another.

More than ten minutes later, No. 0 piloted the smart mecha back to the center of the explosion where the Enforcer was still waiting. When the Enforcer saw the smart mecha bringing the latest energy block over, he immediately received the energy block from the smart mecha’s mechanical hand. Then, the Enforcer stopped looking at the smart mecha in front of him.

Meanwhile, Peter didn’t hear anything from the Enforcer. Peter was still thinking about the two mutants he had just seen. Thus, he asked Number 0 a question.

“Number 0, where are the two mutants?”

No. 0 had previously mentioned that he could monitor the location of the two mutants.

“Master, I’ve locked onto their location. Their location is represented by the two red marks on the display screen.”

After hearing No. 0 finish speaking, Peter saw that there were indeed two very eye-catching red marks on the display in front of him.

No. 0 continued to operate the smart mecha in the direction of the two red dots. Peter noticed that there was actually a church where the red dots were.

According to the information that Peter had previously gathered, the only target of faith in the Mechanical City was the Virgin Mary. Only by being absolutely obedient to the Virgin Mary could they live safely in the Mechanical City. This included the political prisoners who had come to the Mechanical City to take refuge, as well as various ferocious fugitives. Of course, there were also mutants with various abilities.

Donna had previously said that the two mutants had two different abilities. The girl should have a heat-type ability, while the man had a speed-type ability.

According to Donna’s description when she encountered them, Peter could roughly tell that the man should be as fast as him. However, if Peter activated 50 times more rage, he should be able to catch the man easily.

At this moment, No. 0 was already very close to the church. In a few minutes, he would reach the front door of the church. Meanwhile, the two red dots on the screen were still displayed inside the church.

This time, Peter would not let the two mutants escape from him again.

“No. 0, listen to my orders later and let me leave the smart mecha.”

This was the opportunity that he had previously discussed with No. 0. Once he found the two mutants, Peter would temporarily leave the smart mecha and use the power of the Thunder God to control the two mutants.

At this moment, the smart mecha had reached the main door of the church. Peter did not let No. 0 operate the smart mecha to enter from the main door. Instead, the smart mecha walked around the church and found the back door of the church.

Bang!

A soft sound was heard as the smart mecha used its mechanical arm to open the back door of the church and enter the interior of the church.

From the location shown on the map, the back door of the church was a little far from the two red dots. However, if they entered through the front door, it was difficult not to be discovered by the mutants. Thus, to be safe, Peter eventually asked No. 0 to operate the smart mecha and enter through the back door of the church.

“No. 0, if an uncontrollable accident happens later, you should know what to do, right?”

Before entering the Mechanical City, Peter and No. 0 had made a detailed plan. After all, it was always good to be careful when entering a special place like the Mechanical City.

“Master, don’t worry. Once something uncontrollable happens, I’ll immediately hack into the network of the entire Mechanical City and cooperate with you to leave.”

Peter brought No. 0 with him, not just for No. 0 to control the smart mecha. Most importantly, No. 0 could invade the network of the Mechanical City at critical moments and control the defense system of the city in a short period of time.

Although No. 0 could not control the system for a long time, it was enough for Peter.

After getting an affirmative answer from No. 0, Peter looked at the display in front of him. The smart mecha displayed the two red dots, which were less than 100 meters away.

The two mutants had also arrived at the room at the back of the church. This must be where the Bishop was conducting his mass. Peter could see the situation in the church hall through an observation window.

“No. 0, remove the head protection.”

After Peter issued the order, the head of the smart mecha began to separate, revealing Peter’s head. Then, he looked through the observation window in front of him and observed the church hall.

At that moment, the two mutants were in the hall of the church, as if they were making a deal with someone. They were talking a little too loudly, which was just enough for Peter to hear the rough contents of the conversation.

One of them was a red-haired girl who was holding a box and talking to a man in a military uniform.

“If it weren’t for us, how could you Mecha Masters have seen that warrior? The box in my hand contains detailed information from the warrior.”

“However, the price you want is too high. We can’t afford it now. Alternatively, we can do something for you in exchange for a discount.”

Peter had the rough idea that the two mutants seemed to have obtained some valuable information about the mysterious warrior and were making a deal with several Mecha Masters.

If that was the case, it was a good thing for Peter. After all, what Peter lacked the least now was points. He had a lot of points.
