1009 Junk Denizens
I don't know what to call them, are they robots? Monsters? Or maybe they are just mere denizens of Agartha? No idea. One thing is for sure. They are hostile and don't communicate with me in any other way. Based on their behavior alone, it is more precise to say that they are actively hunting me down instead of stumbling upon me.
And because all of them are hostile, I have no choice but to kill every single one of them as I move into this ruined cityscape. It was like it came out of a movie about a futuristic city that was suddenly invaded by robots and killed every person which then resulted in this apocalypse or something. It is very close, to be honest.
"The place has an uncanny resemblance to my world though this one is a bit more advanced," I mumbled.
I continued to explore the cityscape carefully, checking every nook and cranny for whatever I needed to do. As I continued to move around, I soon spotted something intriguing in one of the buildings. It was covered in vines and some dirt but I am sure of what I saw.
"You saw something interesting, wielder?" the shadow dragon asked.
"Something interesting indeed. If what I saw is correct, then I can use it here. Still hope it works."
After approaching the building that houses the item that I spotted earlier, I hacked away all of the vines and branches that started to form on the doorway with the help of the Devourer, allowing me to clear it out and allow me to access and enter the building. Entering the building, it looks like a showroom of some sort. And what I saw earlier is indeed what I was expecting when I got close.
"Damn...I didn't know these things would exist here..." I smiled as I lay my eyes on a black futuristic motorcycle. I say futuristic because it resembles so much to the Black Trike, the three-wheeled motorcycle a certain girl with blue eyes that carries a large cannon as her primary weapon to ride around.
The design and the color, resemble so much of the Black Trike that if I say that this was the Black Trike, then I would believe it.
"Just what this thing is?" the shadow dragon is wondering seeing it for the first time.
"A vehicle. And a powerful one at that. Although it doesn't look too similar to the one I owned back in my world, it does function and work the same thing. Now, let's see if this thing still works. If it does, then we can save our time using this instead of walking."
I checked on the engine and everything else. Although it doesn't have any fuel tank, based on some of the machinations present in the engine, instead of fuel, it takes mana instead which means the fuel I needed is something I can provide. And based on the engines themselves, it still works fine and it doesn't seem to be under wear and tear which means it should still work. The only real problem is that this one does need a key.
The key is not present here. And I don't even know if there are still spares present on the drawers. So I decided to search around. But before I can even do so, hostiles appear. Follow current novels on novelb((in).(com)
"Oy, what are you doing?! Hostile inbound! Enemies are coming left and right!" the shadow dragon frowned.
"That's good, we can test the speed of this trike and see if this works well."
And just like what the Shadow dragon said, the enemies came looking at us, now, rushing over the store.
"Let's roll!"
In full throttle, the trike moved forward at a speed that is not possible to be achieved by a regular motorcycle. And in just one slam, the enemies that are coming in start to crash into the trike. I pulled the Devourer changed it to a gun and began to shoot while I focused my eyes on the road.
BANG! BANG! BANG!
Multiple junk monsters explode to pieces as I shoot them and run them over using the trike. It is a very satisfying way to deal with and outrun the monsters. Not only that, but I also felt like I was a protagonist from a zombie apocalypse story who was cruising the road with a motorcycle while shooting the zombies in my other free hand.
Due to how brittle the junk monsters were, they were easy to kill and a few shots on them would instantly shatter them to pieces.
"Heh, I miss the feeling of riding the road with a motorcycle man, this is not just nostalgia feels, this is something that I was looking forward to doing!"
As I cruise the road with the trike, the monsters that are appearing are all over the place, attracted to the noise of the trike. I am quite pleased that I managed to attract them all over the place and yet, they can't even chase after me with this.
Now that most of them were chasing behind me, I changed the Devourer's form into a cannon and proceeded to shoot [Grapeshot] and [Cannon Fire] at the enemies while also firing multiple normal basic shots.
"Are you doing this on purpose? To gather the monsters and kill them all while doing so?" the shadow dragon asked.
"Not really? I am just trying my best to lure them all out and see which areas are infested by enemies and which areas are not. After all, we are looking for tools that can destroy our enemies with ease, that only means it was feared and is something that is not going to be approached. Or maybe they are being protected. Any area that would have less or no enemies emerging might be a place that we will need to be wary about."
Yes, although I might not doing this seriously, I already thought of how to find the place I needed to find by using this method. I just hope my assumption is indeed correct.
