Chapter 160 - Tattered Cloth Or Treasure

A thunderous sound echoed through out the space tight room.

The screeching sound of the beast claw scratching at the iron roof stop momentarily. And in the next moment, the sound continued, but it hit more furious.

The creature aggressively dug back the sand in its way rapidly, attempting to take back its Prey.

David's expression couldn't get any more awful. He had thought the wall would give in after taking his full strength, but he was very wrong.

The wall only trembled for a bit and then rebounding the force back at David, making him stagger backwards with his face slightly flushed.

"Damn it! Even the previous basement he had gone to that was covered with VoidSteel wasn't as hard as this." David complained. He was running out of time already. If he doesn't make a decision soon, he will be facing the beast in just a few seconds.

The wall seem to contain some type of mechanism to open or close them, other either was no other way to pass open the wall.

"If only I was a hacker, this stuffs would have been easy for me." David mumbled and in the next instant, his eyes flashed as though he remembered something.

Not waiting a single second, David shouted. "Hazel, hurry and open this damn for me."

Since he couldn't open it, he might as well let Hazel try.

"Uhn, how does this have anything to do with me." Hazel retorted.

"Since it is just a simple lock mechanism, it should be extremely simple for you to open." He said hurriedly.

"Took you a while to figure this out. But ajt makes you think I would assist you in doing something illegal?" her tone was flat and discouraging.

"Cut the nonsense! If you truly evolved and develop from my personality, our fear of death and should be one. If that beast catch up, and I die, what makes you think the institute wouldn't wipe out your storage space. " David shouted angrily with his face red.

The AI went silent for a moment and then suddenly, the wall in front of him slid open vertically upwards.

Suddenly, there was a crackling sound from the roof and David looked upwards, only to realised that a claw of te beast had penetrated through the roof of the room. It didn't stop there as the claw swiped backwards, creating a long trail along the way.

It was here! Without waiting, David stretched forth his hand and grabbed at the thing inside the door.

It wasn't mass destructive gadget as David had hoped, it was just a piece of tattered clothes that had different placed been torn off. It literally looked like rags.

It wasn't the only thing in the place, there was also a hard and a slightly big sized dusty helmet that laid in the floor. Although it wasn't as tattered as the clothes, it still had a few claw and scratch marks in it.

"F*ck!" David swore out loud! And his eyes was full of disbelief. He couldn't believe he wasted his time for this nonsense.

As David was about to drop both the skin tight cloth and the helmet and flashed through one of the hole he had created, to deceive the beast, he heard Hazel say.

"Quickly, put on the suit!" it said anxiously this time. It wasn't going to have its memory wiped because of this guy, it was true that she had evolved from David's personality, so it was hard not to learn about his fear of death.

"Okay." David didn't even bother to ask as he was a bit suspicious of the suit and had a few guesses, but he couldn't gamble upon the thought that he was wrong, of he was wrong, and the beast catches up, it would unmistakably spell his doom.

He didn't want to gamble upon it, so he had planned on leaving but the AI's words assured him of his hues and he immediately put started putting in the suit at one corner of the room.

Bang!

One segment of the roof collapsed in the next second and sand spewed into the soil, but the room was small in size there was no way the Four-Winged Chicken would possibly enter through the small hole and gain access to the room.

Cawing in anger, it stayed on the hole it had dug and put its head inside since it couldn't see its Prey from up there.

The suit looked extremely like a swimming suit but the texture was extremely had and also soft, David couldn't believe such texture/material even existed.

The suit tightened further on his body and David grunted. But then, the pain the tightness caused vanished as it became extremely comfortable.

But David didn't have the luxury to appreciate it, he carried the helmet and was about to place it in his head when he saw an enormous head poked its head through the hole on the roof, into the small room. The small room almost couldn't even contain its head.

David's action suddenly paused as he saw a huge eyeball, as huge as a soccer ball in front of him. The eyeball rolled around a few times before it locked onto him.

The two of them paused for a few millisecond. In the next instant, the Beast was smart and it instantly withdrew its head back up.

But David only let out a chuckle in his mind. Since you have come here, let me give you my greetings.

The floor below his feet cracked and his skin bulged like a block of bronze metal. And without warning he punched out ferociously, crackling apart the air and picking through the wind.

Puchi!

The eyeball burst apart with a squeshing under David's punch and was then burnt black by his scorching fist.

Screeech!

A terribly awful sound rang out. David was very close to the beast, so he bore the whole brunt of the attack.

His head felt momentarily dizzy as though he had been struck by lightning in his head. His expression changed slightly. That was a freaking Brain wave attack.

What did this Chicken eat to evolve in such a way.. David couldn't help but wonder.
