Chapter 18: Yellow Turban Terminator
Gathering light to form the character for "death," the cards in hand made everyone’s faces go pale. After hearing the magician explain his superpower, everyone, with their intelligence at a normal level, understood that the character for "death" represented a one-hit kill magical power.
At that moment, Jingxiang snapped out of his excitement and felt a bit weak. It was too late for anyone to pick up their guns to shoot, as the magician had already launched the playing cards infused with deadly magic.
"Terminator summon!" At a critical moment, Daxiong remembered he had a secret weapon and quickly shouted. With his shout, the glasses Daxiong was wearing suddenly emitted a soft glow. At that moment, a strange pain and chill swept through his mind. Suddenly, bizarre images flashed before Daxiong’s eyes.
The cannonfire brought endless explosions, and a flood of steel swept across the land, bringing endless death. Silent killings, wails, and blood became the only melody in the world. In the distant outer space, the floating city of satellites stood tall like a palace where the gods reside.
In the illusion, Daxiong’s gaze was suddenly drawn to the floating city in outer space, traveling through countless halls, arriving in the most central place. There, Daxiong saw a man, a man whose lower half was gone, tangled in countless wires and cables, submerged in a crystal coffin filled with liquid.
The man stared at him.
Unfathomable depth, indescribable coldness, unimaginable madness, evil that goes beyond words!
This was everything in the man’s gaze!
The man in the crystal coffin suddenly laughed, as if he had crossed the boundaries of time and space and seen Daxiong.
"Interesting!"
The deep voice echoed in all of Daxiong’s senses, and the sound felt like a cold, hard iron hand gripping his heart tightly. For the first time since his birth, Daxiong felt an unprecedented clarity of…fear!
"Do you want to borrow my power? Then may it be as you wish! But remember, I… have already seen you!"
The strange illusion flashed and disappeared. A huge amount of electric light came out of nowhere, gathering in front of Ye Daxiong. Then, a twisted crack formed purely from electric light appeared, and a muscular, strong figure pushed through it, slowly stepping out. The powerful cards filled with death magic shot toward him but were bounced away by the magnetic effect created by the electric light.
"Yellow Turban Terminator, number T800, reporting for duty. May I ask if you are my master?"
His biceps were as thick as a person’s waist, his chest muscles were so strong they could make any woman feel small, and his thighs were as massive as bridge pillars. He was a living muscle monster!
At that moment, the summoned Yellow Turban Terminator raised his arms high, bent his elbows, and clenched his fists, displaying terrifying biceps that showcased pure muscular strength! He wore a bright smile, his tone gentle and polite, but his eyes, which looked just like a human’s, were slightly narrowed, shining with a deep, fierce malice.
"Yes, yes, that one over there is the enemy! Please defeat him!" Daxiong was drenched in cold sweat, still lost in the strange fear from the illusion he had just seen. He was not a quick-witted person, and in his panic, he had no time to think about what the illusion and his fear meant, and he didn’t notice the ominous malice in the Yellow Turban Terminator’s eyes. Even if he had, he wouldn’t care, as Daxiong desperately needed saving right now.
The Yellow Turban Terminator turned around, staring at the magician, who suddenly fell silent, no longer pretending to be the Wise Man he had tried to portray, as he clearly sensed a deep, cold malice and murderous intent rushing toward him.
"Humans! I like humans. I love humans. The delightful and tragic cries that come when humans are torn apart, cut in half, or tortured bring me unmatched joy. Even my electronic furnace heart trembles with delight. But sadly, with all the endless wars, there are fewer and fewer humans, only a few rare ones left. You can only find one or two in the dirtiest, darkest holes. So, can you understand my… joy and ecstasy at this moment?"
That was not a human but an unknown creature wearing a human disguise, a malicious non-human monster. The magician understood this clearly and suddenly shouted, "Who cares how joyful you filthy creature are? I am the number one Wise Man of Bloody Earth, an existence you cannot compete with. Now, wail and die under my death magic cards!"
Five spinning death magic cards shot forth in unpredictable trajectories. The Yellow Turban Terminator didn’t waver; he simply bent slightly, curled his arms and legs, striking a powerful bodybuilding pose, "Detecting incoming superpower attack, switching to Yellow Turban Warrior standard defense gear, titanium body… activated!"
Yellow Turban Terminator’s muscles looked as if they had been covered in olive oil, shining with a bronze glow, almost like metal. When the death magic card flew up, it was deflected, and the magician gasped in surprise. At that moment, Yellow Turban Terminator suddenly moved, like a raging thunder, charging wildly at the magician, and faintly, the roar of a fierce tiger echoed.
"Yellow Turban Warrior’s standard attack weapon, Tiger Roar Royal Fist… Activate!"
With one punch, the magician was sent flying like a bird with broken wings, spinning and tumbling in the air for about ten circles before landing heavily. Then, Yellow Turban Terminator clasped his hands behind his head, laughed heartily, struck a strange bodybuilding pose, and suddenly jerked his hips, igniting a burst of flames.
"Yellow Turban Warrior’s standard attack weapon, Thunder Flame Finger… Activate!"
As he shook his hips repeatedly, accompanied by Yellow Turban Terminator’s cheerful laughter, booming cannon sounds erupted continuously, firing unexplainable cannon fire that tossed the magician all around. In an instant, not only the magician but even the wooden wall behind him was completely blown away.
"You… have been defeated!"
With overwhelming power, he completely crushed the magician, leaving Daxiong and the others staring in amazement at Yellow Turban Terminator’s performance.
Yellow Turban Terminator turned around, and the malice and killing intent in his eyes not only didn’t fade but grew even stronger. He bent down, curled his knees, and a violent killing intent surged forth without holding back.
"Wait, wait, wait! What do you want to do!"
Daxiong exclaimed, while Yellow Turban Terminator laughed heartily and said, "Master, ending all humans in sight is stored in our smart brain program as the first sequence. After completing your task, it is now time for me to execute the core sequence of the smart brain… Now, I will finish you off! Tiger Roar Royal Fist, activate!"
A voice filled with malice and murderous intent suddenly roared like a tiger. At that moment, a soft yet menacing meow echoed, and the locked wooden door was suddenly smashed apart, revealing a figure in a blue civet cat plush costume swooping in.
Fist collided with fist, creating a loud crash, as figures interwove and then instantly separated.
"I already knew Bloody Earth would strike today, so I waited outside for a long time, ready to take the chance to surprise them. I didn’t expect Bloody Earth to be so weak. I thought I wouldn’t get a chance to show up today, but I can still sneak in a little action. Tsk tsk, I just added a jet propulsion device to my elbow to enhance my iron arms for powerful punches. Let’s not even mention the ridiculous tiger roar sound effect, and calling it Tiger Roar Royal Fist? Your creator really has a sense of humor! But the power is indeed admirable. I’m starting to regret giving my glasses to Daxiong!"
Yellow Turban Terminator whispered, "Strong humans, hunting you will bring me greater pleasure and earn the praise of the great Father of the Skynet, so… die!"
"You silly creature, I’ve seen many summon beasts like you before. You’re impressive, but you have just as many flaws and weaknesses, especially those summoned using Noble Phantasm. Watch out!"
Bai Qige said confidently, throwing a punch that knocked Daxiong out. Yellow Turban Warrior’s expression became serious, then Bai Qige took the Noble Phantasm glasses from Daxiong and infused them with a bit of True Qi, causing Yellow Turban Terminator’s form to become transparent and shadowy.
"The core of your existence relies on the continuous operation of the Noble Phantasm. If I interfere with it, disrupting its function, any summoned creature will revert to its true form. This is a well-known trick against Noble Phantasm summon beasts, even the old and young in Middle-earth World know this!"
"The will of the Father of the Skynet will not forget this place. I… will return!"
"Tsk, tsk, even though it’s powerful, it can backfire on its master. Is this a feature of the Noble Phantasm, or is it that Daxiong is not strong enough to control it? Maybe both are true! Never mind, we’ll talk about it later. My friends, I believe you are not unfamiliar with me, right?"
Turning around, Bai Qige gazed at everyone and said with a soft laugh, "Even if you don’t want to admit it, I indeed saved you all. However, the idea of being honest about found money is a mistaken moral view, since only good rewards can keep good deeds going. So, I need to ask you for a return. Don’t worry, I don’t want your money or your lives; I just want to have some fun… by playing a game!"
