Chapter 591: Chapter 587 Terrifying Black Tech

Taotie looked at the two bionic robots in front of him, feeling a sense of wonder. These things, with their outer metallic shells and skeletal structures, were almost indistinguishable from humans. If covered with human skin, they’d likely be nearly identical to living people.

The only difference might be that their expressions weren’t as vivid, but they were absolutely more agile than humans.

They could even perform movements that humans couldn’t achieve.

Many of their joints had more small articulations compared to a normal human.

"Do these things really have Super-level strength?"

Taotie asked.

Tom nodded: "They absolutely do."

"They’re even stronger than normal human powerhouses."

Tom was firm in his statement.

After all, the realm of black technology was one of Tom’s most familiar and proficient domains.

Additionally, Tom had gained a certain status in this field under other identities.

He was able to access some insider information in advance.

This insider information was the kind of intelligence that people outside this field couldn’t buy even if they had the money. If not for the rigorously kept secrets, the scientists researching bionic robots would have long been wiped out by experts from other domains.

Bionic robots with strength equivalent to Half-step Super Experts were impossible to mass-produce, let alone be distributed to pawnshops as standard equipment.

"Then let me put them to the test, see what they’re worth."

Upon seeing the conviction in Tom’s words, Taotie chuckled coldly, picked up the Strange Dagger, and walked toward the two bionic robots, ready to give them a good fight.

Tom didn’t stop Taotie.

He had called Taotie over precisely so he could act, destroy the two bionic robots—Tom would certainly never intervene with Taotie’s actions.

Step by step, Taotie approached the two bionic robots. When he got within five meters of them, the two motionless bionic robots suddenly came to life.

One male bionic robot drew a long sword gleaming with a cold light from its thigh.

The female bionic robot extracted a metallic rope dart from her spine.

Upon seeing this, Taotie paused.

Then he grinned: "Heh, interesting."

"They even know how to use weapons?"

Taotie found it rather fascinating.

However, the two bionic robots had no interest in discussing this with Taotie.

Their only objective was clear: eliminate and kill all illegal intruders within their programmed territory, pre-inserted into their systems.

The term "organisms" included but was not limited to humans.

The male bionic robot swung its sword in a direct chop.

Under the glow of LED lights, the coldly gleaming edge of the sword aimed straight at Taotie’s head.

The rope dart in the female bionic robot’s hand moved even faster than the sword edge.

The tip of the rope dart glowed with a red light.

That was the targeting laser from its self-aiming mechanism.

The red laser fell squarely on Taotie’s heart—that was the rope dart’s intended target.

Facing the pincer attack by the two bionic robots, Taotie sneered disdainfully, showing no sign of panic.

Although it was his first time battling high-tech opponents, he considered it trivial; in Taotie’s eyes, the two bionic robots posed no real threat.

He even found their design intriguing, eager to test the strength of the two bionic robots to see if they truly matched humans of the same level.

Or perhaps, between advanced high-tech bionic robots and genuine humans, which side had the upper hand?

Taotie sidestepped the rope dart.

Raising his Strange Dagger, he struck toward the male bionic robot.

Taotie’s Strange Dagger was significantly longer than the male bionic robot’s sword.

The length of a weapon indicated the reach of its attack. Taotie’s Strange Dagger vastly outmatched the maximum reach of the male bionic robot’s sword.

Thus, faced with the male bionic robot’s sword, Taotie had no intention of going on the defensive.

The Strange Dagger swept forward magnificently.

If the male bionic robot didn’t dodge and merely focused on attacking Taotie, the inevitable consequence would be its torso being cleaved in two by Taotie’s Strange Dagger.

Swish—

At this moment, Taotie’s expression changed.

His awareness picked up the rope dart he had earlier evaded—it had looped around behind him and locked the dart tip once more on his heart.

This time, the dart tip’s target wasn’t his front heart but his back.

The intent was to pierce through him from behind.

Now Taotie faced a choice.

If he continued his attack, he was confident he could shatter the male bionic robot with one slash.

But in doing so, he would undoubtedly be struck by the rope dart.

Taotie trusted his offensive capabilities.

But he had zero confidence in whether his light armor’s defenses could withstand the high-tech-enhanced rope dart attack.

The dart was aimed at his vital point.

Moreover, it was his back heart.

While fierce, Taotie was no fool.

He wouldn’t risk his life testing the defensive limits of his light armor.

That was the sort of recklessness reserved for idiots.

If the dart weren’t targeting a vital spot, Taotie might have tried testing it out.

But with a vital point at risk, Taotie wasn’t going to take any chances.

Taotie decisively abandoned his attack, retrieving his slashing Strange Dagger, and dodged to evade the rope dart.

Taotie firmly believed that as long as he moved quickly enough, the rope dart—no matter how advanced its guidance system—could never keep up with him, and that he would shake it off within a matter of exchanges.

But soon, Taotie realized he was wrong—and not just wrong, but significantly mistaken.

Though his speed was impressive and he tried numerous elusive footwork techniques to force the rope dart to collide with obstacles and terminate its pursuit, every time the rope dart’s sensor-equipped tip barely evaded any obstruction, it would resume shadowing him relentlessly, continuing its relentless hunt.

While the female bionic robot controlled the rope dart for continuous attacks on Taotie, the male bionic robot coordinated with her efforts, blocking Taotie’s escape routes. Their teamwork subtly aligned with the tactical principles of dual-team combat formation killing techniques.

This put Taotie in a difficult position.

He found himself momentarily unable to break the formation or escape the relentless hunt by the two bionic robots.

Taotie could now firmly confirm that these two bionic robots indeed possessed Half-step Super strength.

If taken individually to fight a Half-step Super human opponent, Taotie couldn’t easily determine who’d emerge stronger.

But when facing more than two bionic robots versus an equal number of human counterparts of the same level, Taotie was convinced.

In eighty percent of scenarios, an ad-hoc human team wouldn’t stand a chance against a team of bionic robots.

They weren’t even on the same playing field.

The human team would most likely be hunted down at great efficiency by the bionic robot squad.

Taotie had a sinking feeling that one day, these bionic robots might actually replace human powerhouses entirely, becoming the main combat force for Jianghu Forces. If these bionic robots were controlled by malicious intents or evolved their programs independently, it was conceivable they’d become a grave threat to human survival.

Taotie tried thinking ahead, picturing the scenario.

A squad of a hundred bionic robots didn’t need to be overly powerful—Half-step Super would suffice.

Such a group could roam freely through the territories of any force, effortlessly wiping them out.

Even mighty factions like the Ye Family and Tom’s, which boasted Super Masters, would struggle to survive under siege from large-scale bionic robot squads...
