*SCREEECH*

"What the heck is that!?"

Brim, Thorn, and other crews gazed at the source of the monster's scream. It was close by.

"Is that a zombie's screech?"

"Nah, the zombies have a high pitch. This one is kinda deep."

"This should be something bigger than a zombie. Maybe it's one of those obese zombies? The grotesque one that looks like Pudge?"

Thorn ignored the Tautog crews as he focused on Crystal.

"Can you give us the visual or can you tell us what happened over there? If it's Misha, then we can move in and rescue her."

[Roger that. Give me a few seconds.]

= Ten seconds later =

*BOOM*

*BOOM*

*BOOM*

The ground trembled, and over a hundred of ten-meter earth spikes shot toward the sky. All of them were aimless as their sharp tips pointed in a different direction.

[I've got the visual! It's Misha! She's … flying!? Wait a minute, a newly awakened dragonewt can't fly! She's really a freaking otherworlder!]

"WHAT!?"

Thorn widened his eyes in disbelief. If Misha were one of the heinous otherworlders they knew, she would not have rescued Brim as he was their precious test subject.

Furthermore, Misha would not have told them about the miraculous medicine at all.

Thorn's instinct cried that Misha could be trusted, but the fact was against it. Hesitated, Thorn asked for Crystal's confirmation.

"Should we cancel the rescue and leave her!?"

Crystal also could not decide as she had the same thought as Thorn.

[AARRGGGHHH!!! f.u.c.k it! Chacha, go help her! It doesn't matter if she's otherworlder or not, she's our ally!]

"On it!"

[Also, I found Sebastian over there as well! I don't know what he is doing, but he's observing Misha from above. Be wary of him when you get there!]

Thorn turned to Brim and other Tautog pilots, who had already drunk the potion and revived their partners. They, too, had evolved into dragonewts like Brim.

"The rest of you should withdraw back to base. Misha already has a machine, so she'll be fine."

The pilots gazed at Thorn in reluctant, "Can we help?"

"Our mission is already half-success. Get Brim back home first, so nothing can go wrong. Don't forget our base's favorite quote!"

All of them nodded, "Whatever can go wrong, will go wrong."

"Yup. Now, don't let this mission go wrong. Get going!"

"Yes, sir!"

Tautog crews got to their mechs while Brim jumped boarded one of the robots, squeezing himself into his friend's one-man c.o.c.kpit.

"Brim. Actually, you can sit on my mech's palm, you know?"

Brim looked at his friend with an awkward smile, "I'm scared of height."

"Bulls.h.i.+t! A former skydiver scares of height?"

"Just kidding. I just want to kiss you. I love you, buddy."

"Scram! GTFO of my c.o.c.kpit!"

While Brim and his friends were having a friendly squabble, Thorn rushed back to his mech. Once he got inside Zeris One's c.o.c.kpit, he connected the communication channel with the headquarter.

A square overlay with Crystal's cam face appeared at Thorn's monitor, far-right corner of the screen.

Zeris One engine roared as the machine dashed forward.

.

Carlos screamed as he dashed toward Mia. His feet carried the weight of five tons each, and his grotesque body generated hard stones as armor. As he ran, the ground sunk, sending small tremor shockwave toward the sides.

He jumped to the sky, trying to grab Mia.

Mia floated backward, and Carlos missed his target. As Carlos could not fly, he dropped to earth by gravity.

Currently, Carlos weighed over ten tons. Thus, the impact of his landing caused an earthquake and a large crater.

Burrow scorpions and snakes left their nests in a panic. Some moody ones glared at Carlos and jumped at him, thinking that he was a prey.

Carlos turned around and threw rock punches at the oncoming monsters, which smashed the scorpions and snakes into mincemeat.

His action provoked the nearby monsters in the area as the smell of blood and gore enticed them. Two hundred underground monsters screeched and charged at Carlos.

The berserk 3-meter rock hulk disregarded Mia and charged at the monster horde.

Meanwhile, Mia observed the madness below him with an indifferent expression.

He did not tell this to Tama. Roleplaying Jigsaw was not the only reason why Mia dragged Carlos here.

As a berserk overmind could exhibit 300% of their physical prowess, Mia did not want to risk himself as he did in the past. He forced Carlos into this field, so he could aggro all the monsters underground and get his attention off Mia and Tama.

From Mia's perspective, fighting Carlos in this state head-on was a stupid thing to do. Since his conscience was no more and his body did not possess any offensive skill that could harm him, Mia ignored the berserking overmind.

'Once he is exhausted, I can deal with him later, or I should leave it to that old fox.'

Mia glanced at the sky. Sebastian's eyes were gluing at Carlos in shock, and he did not realize that Mia had already detected him.

From the moment that Maou Mia woke up for the first time, he had already spotted Sebastian with his 3D mind map.

At first, Mia ignored this butler as he was under his mech's protection. Now that Mia left Prometheus, Sebastian could be a hidden threat.

With haste, Mia floated back to Prometheus. He returned to the c.o.c.kpit and closed the hatch in silence. Since Shurka was still asleep, he moved her aside and leaned back on his seat.

*BOOM*

A m.u.f.fled noise came from outside, but Mia did not care about it anymore. He flipped the air conditioning switch and closed his eyes. Exerting his brainpower exhausted his mental strength.

"Tell me when he's done playing with the scorpion. Imma take a nap."

*MYA!* (WTF!? You can't chill yet! We haven't returned to base!)

"Sebastian is watching. He'll deal with the rest."

*Mya Mew!* (Wha!? Since when? Wait, don't sleep! Get us back to base first. You're an absurd banana! Hey, wake up!)

Ignoring Tama, Mia relaxed his mind, trying to sleep.

>

'Yes.'

>

>

>

'Ten minutes.'

As Maou Mia released his tension, Banana Mia Mode took over, and his mentality became wide awake. He stretched as if he had slept for hours.

> "I FEEL REFRESHED!" >

Tama slapped her tentacle arm above her chest eye as if she facepalmed herself.

*Mew* (Dissociative ident.i.ty, schizophrenia, and possibly bipolar. Mish, you need help.)

Mia blinked three times in a row, looking at the confused system logs and Tama, who was having a migraine for the first time.

Although Mia remembered everything that Maou Mia did, he did not inherit his chain of thought.

"Is the game error? I set the sleeping time for 10 minutes, but not a minute has pa.s.sed yet. But I feel like I had a good sleep!"

*…*

.

Five minutes later after Carlos had gone berserk, he destroyed all scorpions and snake monsters in the danger zone.

Panting and exhausting, the 3-meter grotesque obese body sat down and stared into a distance in a daze. His rock armor dissolved and his skin returned to the disfigured flesh.

Sebastian descended from the sky. Once he landed, he strolled toward the dazing Carlos.

The butler dragonewt did not make a sound. He sneaked behind Carlos and pointed his palm at the back of his neck.

Sebastian's tentacle exited from his palm and entered Carlos, destroying the overmind's cervical spine, breaking his neck bones.

The tentacle did not stop there. It transited in a reverse scissor, and it beheaded Carlos, slas.h.i.+ng his neck from the inside out.

Carlos's head rolled on the ground as it was still looking forward in a daze. The headless obese giant body slowly shrank back to the withered old man, and it collapsed like a stringless doll.

Sebastian glared at Carlos in resentment.

'Go to h.e.l.l, a.s.shole!'

His vengeance had been satisfied, but Sebastian's job had not done yet.

The issue about the otherworlder was still there.

'I don't know what Misha did, but she's a threat to my base and my people!'

'I'll drag her out of that mech and reveal her ident.i.ty before everyone! Only that can explain my past deeds. I can't let that p.i.s.s sabotages my reputation any further!'
