War Assist AI (Part Four)

Fell froze in place as he heard the warning. He calmly raised his arms over his head and waited for further instructions.

"Good, stay in that position. It seems you do understand our language, why did you come here?" The suppressed voice echoed again.

Fell swiftly sensed that it came from ten meters from him, he immediately sent an order for the AI to scan his surroundings.

"No need to use your Assist AI to scan our numbers or position, you are surrounded by an assault team from New Casablanca's Police Force." Another suppressed voice spoke in a languid manner. Showing Fell that they sensed his AI scan.

Fell received their position from his Assist AI. His left eyes twinkled with a soft purple light; a holographic screen appeared in front of him. He swiftly understood that it was a map of his surroundings, five red marks could be seen flashing in a radius of twenty meters around him.

"I think this is a misunderstanding," explained Fell with a calm voice.

As he was currently going to New Casablanca's Main Districts, he wanted to avoid direct confrontation with its Police Force.

"What kind of misunderstanding, we just sensed your AI scans. You clearly just stole military equipment!" A third suppressed voice resounded, its tone was husky and deep. Probably a middle-aged man deduced Fell.

"What is your purpose in coming here!?" Another member of the Assault team spoke, its penetrating voice clapped through the quiet courtyard.

Fell racked his brain for his next answer. Although he wasn't fearful of them, he was adamant on avoiding conflict with them.

He calmly turned his head to his right and looked straight in the direction of the middle-aged man. He softly spoke in a calm tone, completely ignoring the aggressive member.

"I am a native of the Slums, I was making my way through West Highway and got bored from the scenery", he paused for a breath and leisurely resumed his speech, "As a result of seeing the endless sea of Factory during my journey, I got curious and decided to enter one."

"And you didn't think that it would be a problem? You even stole military equipment and destroyed one of the state's resource!" the intimidating voice immediately barked. The tone clearly showed that he didn't trust a single bit of Fell's explanation.

"Calm down Johnny. At least, it wasn't the worst-case scenario." A monotonous soft voice interrupted the fiery-tempered man.

Fell's eyes flashed as he heard the fourth member of the Assault Team mention a worst-case scenario. He reflected on what might New Casablanca's Police Force terms as a worst-case scenario.

"Hahahaha, so he's just a child from the Slums." A childish voice loudly exclaimed while laughing.

"A child that managed to destroy one of those units." The penetrating voice loudly responded. The unit he referred to was the Androids that Fell destroyed during his underground exploration.

Fell calmly watched the Police Force interaction, a wry smile appeared on his face when they called him a child.

It wasn't his fault, ever since he began his cultivation journey, his appearance turned even more juvenile than before. He even feared that he might turn back into his early teenage years if he breakthrough into the Second Realm.

"Anyway kid, you're gonna have to follow us to the Police Station in the Main Distri..." The middle-aged member of the Assault team explained

"Sure!" said Fell, briskly interrupting the police officer in the middle of his explanation. As he wanted to go to the Main Districts, following them would be the quickest road to his objective.

As for what might happen in the Police Station, he was sure that they wouldn't go heavy-handed on him. If the worst should happen, Fell was confident in his flight skill. He figured it wouldn't be too difficult to escape from a police station.

"Chief Walter, I'll take care of his detention!" The fiery voice resounded. Johnny immediately executed his words, a roaring vibration thundered.

"Wait!" Walter ordered with a firm tone. He knew that his fiery-tempered subordinate was hard to manage.

Johnny ignited the propellers of his MechSuit, he barged out of his hidden position and crossed the distance between him and Fell in a single moment.

Fell finally saw his aggressive interlocutor. Johnny was wearing a golden MechSuit that encompassed his whole body; he swiftly noticed the similarity between the Androids frame and the armor that was in front of him.

"Looks like the Combat Suit are just the beginning, Earth's technology is remarkable!" this thought flashed through his mind as he dodged Johnny's grab with ease.

"Come over here! You sly bastard!" a suppressed howl appeared from under his helmet, his anger accentuated as he didn't expect the frail man to dodge his clutch easily.

"Sly?" Fell's lips opened in surprise; his eyes gleamed as a smile appeared on his face.

Johnny's back propellers ignited showering the space behind him with a rain of sparks, sending the maximum energy output to his back. His golden frame blurred and instantly appeared in front of Fell. His fist was clenched, ready to land straight onto Fell's jaw.

Fell could see his opponent burning intent to kill him, Johnny's eyes were burning with seething anger.

"STOP!" the assault team chief ordered as he detected Johnny's intent to incapacitate the young man coming from the slums.

A serious expression replaced Fell's smile; his brain, assisted with the AI, swiftly calculated the angle of the blow. He quickly saw the fist's trajectory and sent his right hand straight in the middle of it.

As he saw the two fists approach each other. Their size was completely different, one of them was coated and protected by the MechSuit armor. While the other was a simple human fist, gently advancing in the direction of the armored fist.

A sigh escaped from his lips as he saw the scene unravel in front of him. He could already see the metallic fist crush and cripple the young man's hand; he would be considered lucky if he even survived the devastating blow.

"If he survives this fists confrontation, I'll do my best to heal him and add him in the team. So much potential shouldn't be hidden in the Slums!" he instantly thought as he saw the two fists infinitely draw close to each other.

The fiery and aggressive fist finally came in contact with the soft and fragile hand. However, no sound of crushed flesh and bones was heard.

Right before the impact of the two fists, Fell swiftly opened his hand and caught the armored fist in his palm. He smoothly reversed his motion with the fiery fist firmly grasped in his hand; large veins appeared from under his skin as he exerted his might.

Johnny grunted in surprise as he didn't expect this result, he could feel his feet leave the ground. His vision was shaking, and he could only see his surrounding spin as if he had too much liquor. In the middle of the hazardous rotation, he could feel that he was throwing up the content of his empty stomach inside his helmet.

Fell was bullying Johnny as if he was a younger kid in the playground. Fell eventually stopped messing around with him and savagely slammed him on the ground. Johnny's brain shook everywhere inside his skull due to his collision with the ground. He still didn't know what happened as he was knocked unconscious.

Silence permeated in the factory; the assault team's mouths were gaping as they were utterly shocked by the young man's prowess.

"A shoulder throw?" Ronnie's voice escaped from under his mechanic helmet, contrary to his habitual dull tone. His voice trembled as it spread through the quiet place.

He couldn't understand how such a frail human could lift and slam a MechSuit armored Johnny. Everybody knew it; if it wasn't for the Assist AI that helps in every move of the MechSuit. Nobody would be able to take a single step while wearing them.
