Entering Apocalypse in Easy-Mode

In the white room, as usual, Agatha was looking at them with amusement in her eyes. Or rather she just stared at Clyde and not paying too much attention for the rest.

"He handled it pretty well," Agatha muttered.

She wasn\'t too shocked by what she saw. Because Agatha already knew that Clyde would be able to walk toward the tower easily.

The skills he has are also quite extraordinary. Agatha remembered that the skill was called [Hacking]. The fact that Clyde had that rare Skill proved that he knew what was going to happen today.

Agatha decided not to think too much about how Clyde knew about it all. And just enjoy the fun sight.

Luccio\'s arrival surprised her. Agatha almost jumped off the couch when the door opened.

"How\'s the situation?" Luccio asked.

"Uhh... Nothing worth mentioning, Senior," replied Agatha.

Luccio looked at the screen with serious eyes then sat down on the couch. As soon as he sat down, Luccio immediately brought his hands together in front of his face, making a gesture of contemplating.

But his eyes stare straight at the screen. There is no question about who is the center of his attention this time.

"They\'re approaching the Main Control Tower?" Luccio said, astonished. "Do they know anything?"

Luccio stared at Agatha with his sharp eyes. Agatha tried to be calm even though inside her heart, there was a turmoil of fear.

"I\'m not sure, senior. I\'ve seen him disappear when he was on the subway," said Agatha with a calm face.

Luccio stared at him for a few more moments. His brows furrowed so sharply that it made the look in his eyes a few times more frightening.

Agatha felt the urge to swallow her saliva. In the end, she swallowed reflexively. While hoping that Luccio wouldn\'t take it as a sign that she was nervous.

Luccio then sighed and looked at the screen again. Agatha also breathed a sigh of relief silently.

"The Guardians have come. So we don\'t have to worry about the Celestials trying to harm us," Luccio said.

"That\'s good," Agatha said.

"I will make another contract offer to him." Luccio looked at Clyde who was fighting the drones on the screen.

"Are you sure he will accept it this time, Senior?"

"Why not? Doesn\'t he need something to fight the Outer God tomorrow?"

Agatha did not answer. She had a hunch that Clyde already had a way to deal with that Outer God without receiving a contract from Luccio.

What Clyde got from anyone he met when he disappeared on the subway is still a mystery.

And that must have been a reward from the Celestial for telling him to kill those three Wendigos of different colors. So, it\'s definitely not a small reward.

Clyde also asked her about the treasure box. Agatha didn\'t know what was actually in the treasure box because this system is quite old. So neither Luccio nor her have a complete manual.

But if Clyde was looking for it, it would definitely be of use to him.

There was even a high chance that he would find something to defeat the Outer God tomorrow.

However, Agatha couldn\'t say that because it would make Luccio feel suspicious of her. Then thought that she was planning something behind him.

Luccio and Agatha continued to watch Clyde and the other Players in action in silence.

~~~

Clyde was almost at the Main Control Tower. But apparently, there is something else that appears and blocks him. Something that looks troublesome.

It is a robot. But that shape gave off the impression that the robot\'s power was on a different level than it had appeared before.

The robot didn\'t have the appearance of a metal human skeleton. Outwardly it looks like a human wearing futuristic armor with glowing neon-red stripes.

It holds two short swords. The swords were made of red energy condensed into blades.

Its heads have a V-shaped curved line that seems to indicate the location of its eyes.

Clyde used [Skill: Inspection] on it right away.

<<<Monster Information>>>

[ Name: X-99. ]

[ Affiliation: Rogue AI Monster. ]

"Tsk!" Clyde clicked his tongue, full of annoyance. He thought he could get into the tower now that none of the drones were coming.

But who would have thought that the tower still had something to guard against it?

Suddenly the robot with the name X-99 shot toward Clyde and swung the two swords simultaneously.

*CLANG!*

Clyde is able to raise the Elderglass Sword in time to counter the two swords.

The robot then uses its legs to perform an upward circular kick. Clyde was able to dodge it but barely. The robot\'s metal leg barely missed his chin.

Clyde jumped back and then swung the Elderglass Sword in a forward arc. He sent out a crescent-shaped lightning slash like the one he used before to destroy the drones.

But even though the lightning slash went so fast, the X-99 robot managed to avoid it by bending its back. The lightning slash just passed through it.

X-99 immediately stood back up and dashed toward Clyde with incredible speed. In the blink of an eye, he had arrived in front of Clyde.

X-99 again slashed the two swords from two opposite directions simultaneously. Aiming it at Clyde\'s neck.

Clyde threw a lightning bolt at the robot\'s chest. As soon as the lightning bolt hit its chest, X-99 was sent flying backward.

*JRZZZTTT!!*

*JRZZZTTT!!*

*JRZZZTTT!!*

Bluish-white lightning flowed through the robot\'s metal body for a few moments. Making it unable to move.

Clyde used this opportunity to dart towards it and then grabbed its neck. Then Clyde slams it to the ground with such force that it creates a small crater.

Then Clyde raised the Elderglass Sword and plunged it into the robot\'s chest.

*CRACK!*

The Elderglass Sword\'s blade was still enveloped in bluish-white lightning. So that when the sword blade entered the body of the lightning robot, it immediately spread.

X-99, which had previously looked like a threat, was now violently convulsing. Maybe if this robot fights other players it will indeed become a threat. But it was nothing in front of Clyde.

Clyde stood up and let the robot convulse on the ground. He walked straight toward the gate of the Main Control Tower.

But Clyde\'s view remains the stay vigilante because maybe the tower still has a surprise in store for him.

*BOOM!*

Clyde heard an explosion from behind him which made him turn his head. Behind them were flames rising from the toppled body of a large robot.

Clyde saw Rodney come out from next to the robot and started attacking the other robots.

Seeing that, Clyde was increasingly convinced that they would be fine. So he walked faster toward the gate.

Clyde cut through the gate and barged in. Then he met with very high double doors. Viewed from anywhere this double door looks sturdy.

Clyde felt he could destroy this door. However, he will release quite a lot of Magic Power. So it\'s not a wise choice.

Clyde saw an electronic panel beside the door. Something that usually serves as a place for security card scanning.

He stuck a hand there and activated his Skill.

[ Hacking (Lv. 10) is activated! ]

A second later the same notification appeared.

[ Say you order! ]

\'Open the door.\'

*FSSS...*

With that, the large double doors began to open to both sides. Clyde immediately ran in through the open gap without waiting for the door to fully open.

As soon as he entered, what greeted him was a large and wide corridor. Clyde looked in all directions to make sure nothing was trying to attack him once he forced his way in.

Suddenly the corridor light came on. It turns out, the corridor light is a red light that makes the entire corridor filled with red-like blood color.

The intruder alarm sounded. Clyde had expected this, so he wasn\'t surprised when he saw a dozen robots modeled after X-99 appear around him.

They immediately attacked Clyde as soon as they saw him. Some wield two short swords like the X-99 he fought before. While others use long-range attacks with a gun.

Clyde fought them while using [Skill: Pure Lightning]. Flashes of bluish-white lightning danced in the middle of the corridor which was lit up in red.

Destruction was created on several sides of this corridor. The body parts of the X-99 robot were thrown and hit the wall and then died and didn\'t move anymore.

After a few minutes, finally Clyde managed to beat them all. He looked in all directions but found nothing that lunged at him again. So he continued his journey.

Because of what Agatah had said about the location of the treasure box, Clyde was able to walk with a clear purpose.

"10th Division Office."

Clyde read the neon sign over a double metal door.

Clyde did the same. Sticking hands on the panel beside the door and using [Skill: Hacking].
