Chapter 1536 Stand Your Ground -Part 3

It's not as if the cultivators were supposedly strong and unique. In Jin's world, most cultivators had been practising their techniques since young as a sort of passing down the family's martial arts as part of their tradition of growing up. 

Otherwise, those cultivation capable people would at least learn a trick or two to survive in that harsh world of theirs where results and productivity matter and cultivation allows that. However, in this Synthesis World, none of that matters since what was important and vital was whether the Mechanoids were able to complete the mission or not. Survival was their second priority if the mission had been completed or led to failure.

So, even though Jin had only transferred basic martial art techniques to the Mechanoids less than a few hours ago via the Tactical System, the War Maidens defending the Workshop immediately used it as if they were depending their lives on it. A few rod and rifle based martial arts had also been taught since most of them were carrying rifles and pistols as their primary weapons. 

The scene was amazing for Jin to look at especially when he did not have contact with his real world for weeks. (Though in his world, it had already been months.) To see the Mechanoids gracefully execute the martial arts techniques despite having no chi in time was as if he had transported back to the ancient times where barriers were formed to prevent the use of chi and everyone was just savages fighting against each other seeing who had the better and faster killing blows.

Doubtless to say, this moment of happiness was fleeting as the number of Mechanoids defending was drastically reducing not because they were losing but the fact that the other side was pouring more Mechanoids onto the walls. At the same time, the Grey Bear Squads were doing all they can to delay the inevitable. 

Tellie and a few other Mechanoids were sniping from the mountain sides while Yinn continued to assist the Mechanoids in holding the fort. Tellie herself had proven to be a sniper through and through, to such a point where her shots who yield her triple or even quadruple the kill, depending on luck and timing, As for Yinn, her skills to assist with the coordination among the hundreds of Mechanoids under Jin as he only gave broad commands and expected things to get it done. If not for the coordination within their communications that Yinn provided, those broad commands amounted to nothing. 

Click somehow had an upgrade skill that allowed her to create turrets from a few bodies of dead Mechanoids, enabling her to protect the walls on her end and gave assistance to nearby sections of the Workshop Walls. The War Maidens at her side called her turret the Maiden Eating Turret as every time Click placed a dead Mechanoid body near the turret, it would cause tendrils and tentacles to emerge out of its base plate and pick off parts where it would use to either replenish its ammunition or upgrade itself.  Since some of the Mechanoids which Click picked had grenades or even a rocket launcher on them, the turret took those replenishable upgrades for itself and used them against the enemies. Saves the hassle of picking them up. (The only problem was that sometimes, the Man Eating Turret would indiscriminately try to eat Click too.)

Diaz went berserk with her killing spree as her upgrade skills somehow enabled her to produce two shotgun shells every time she kill a Mechanoid, enabling her to go on a rampage, as she took the chance to commit a bloody (or oily) slaughter any incoming Mechanoids that were coming.

The only catch was that she was supposed to only last a minute or two in this mode considering how her energy consumption had risen to the roof for her to do such a feat.  But the silver lining was that she was connected to the workshop's main power supply. What was supposed to be a charging point to supply energy to a defensive cannon had been plugged into her where she could be the killing machine now that the defensive cannons on the walls were useless against close combat. 

There was not much need to say about Page.

Her current skills of converting the opposing enemy's Mechanoids had been well known to everyone that Yinn had assigned her to the place where the breaches happened. This was to ensure that any enemy Mechanoids that managed to go through the wall's defences would be subjected to her nanobot conversion, enabling them to turn back and attack the enemy, closing the gap once more despite it being just a temporary measure.

And as the use of the nanobot conversion skill had been used more often, more data had been fed into her body's system enabling the Tactical System to improve the ability even further as just how Tellie's sniping skills excelled further.  Her Nanobots became more sturdy and carried even more data which enabled a quicker conversion, especially to the regular Mechanoids. Enemy Mechanoids from the Special Forces or perhaps even slightly customised Mechanoids would encounter the nanobots with even more difficulty in rejecting the conversion.

But even though those customised Mechanoids did not subject to conversion, it still slowed them down as the conversion forced legs and arms to stop moving temporarily. A paralyzing effect occupies the main system's processes so that it could infiltrate with a higher success rate. 

Still, the conversion was just a stop gap measure, as the nanobots that Page could create were limited and due to the numbers the enemies possessed, there was not much she could do in the long run. The only time she does her medic job was when the Grey Bear Squad Members get injured as she too felt that the other Mechanoids were dispensable as well and not worthy of her heals. 

Now all they need was to stand their ground and push the enemies away for as long as they could hold.
