Epic Of Ice Dragon: Reborn As An Ice Dragon With A System

Chapter 1821: Security Robots



"Eh? She's dead already?!" Benladann asked.

"Just what happened? I didn't even notice..." Miranda said. "I was already prepared to shield everyone with my Domain..."

"Waow!" Drakda clapped his little hands.

"Emil, how did you do that?!" Benladra asked.

"It worked like he said," said Kate. "His power, Mind Marble, can help him modify the laws of physics and cause of effect of any matter and psychic power within his range..."

"Were you able to see it?" Benladra wondered. "Wow, sis, you're really amazing..."

"Hm, it was a bit hard," Kate nodded. "I had to enhance my processing power and speed. But yes, he was quite amazing."

"Yeah, I noticed her eyes could keep up with what I was doing," Emil nodded. "Hah, she's finally dead though. I was really scared..."

Although he looked confident before, Emil sighed in relief, his heart was beating super-fast through the entire battle, not even he knew if his powers would always work as he wanted.

However, they did. He managed to successfully change the trajectory of all bullets and the damage dealt by their explosions towards Monique.

Although not all attacks hit her as his accuracy is not the best yet, he managed to defeat her using her own weapons...

However, he was able to alter the trajectory and the damage provoked by the explosions through his newly awakened Esper Ability.

At the same time, he also left behind the light that encompassed these attacks, creating the illusion they reached their targets.

This even made Benladra, and her family react by trying to protect themselves and even feeling the searing heat of the explosions, but never any damage.

Eventually Monique was hit by her own weapons so many times her entire intestines blew up and she died with her guts out... miserably.

Much like Kate's Matter Manipulation, Emil's new power seemed to be closer to that category, albeit purely psychic-based instead of divine.

"Well, that was incredible, I have to say, thank you for protecting my daughter Emil," said Benladann. "To think that woman appeared out of nowhere and had such a power capable of not making us even feel Benladra at all... it was simply... even now I can't believe she was just right in front of us."

"It is a dangerous power, yes," nodded Emil. "And she was an even more dangerous woman. Monique is the boss of several gangs and also the owner of this entire laboratory, apparently. She is a powerful outlaw, bounty hunter, and also drug trafficker. Without even considering her other many sins, such as holding my people hostage here, tortured and killed slowly..." He sighed, resting on his knees as he gasped for air.

"Ugh... I'm exhausted. I didn't knew using my powers like this would tire me out so much," he sighed.

"Are you ok? Let me heal you Emil!" Benladra ran towards the boy, using her healing magic to rapidly alleviate his pain and a bit of his mental exhaustion.

"Hahh... your powers are amazing, Benladra," Emil said. "But... they aren't Esper abilities, right? You and everyone else... don't have those."

"Ah yes, well we say they are so we can blend in," said Benladann. "But they are other powers, they come from within our own bodies. Literally just magic and divine power."

"W-What? Such a thing is possible?" wondered Emil.

"I thought you could read minds, I had imagined you had it figured out by now," said Miranda.

"Ah, no, I cannot read your minds, it is as if something is protecting them... but even if I could, I wouldn't do it anyways," he said. "You're my friends and I trust you all... you've saved my life and even came here just because I asked you. You're good people I trust my life with."

"Aw, aren't you a sweetie?" giggled Benladann. "Anyways, now that we've dealt with the robots we should go save your people as quickly as possible, Emil. Did you learn something from her memories?"

"Yes, I know where everyone is, I'll guide you there," Emil nodded. "The closest room with my people is over there, next to the left corridor, at the end."

"Alright, let's go then!" Benladra said. "Do I carry you? Can you walk?"

"Y-Yes I can walk! Please don't carry me again, that was so embarrassing..." Emil sighed.

They ran through the corridors, quickly reaching the closest room to where they were and then, with her blazing axe, Rita, Benladann ripped open the metallic walls.

They didn't even need to reach the door anyways, as long as they were within range...

CRAAASH!

Emil told her exactly where she could tear through without damaging the people, and she easily opened a new door.

As she entered, several warning signs started popping up in every screen of the room, there, they saw dozens of huge glass tubes with green liquid and the floating, anorexic bodies of several gray-skinned and black-eyed people.

While Emil was a hybrid and looked more human-like, these people had more slender, taller bodies, and also longer faces, making them strikingly resemble the "gray aliens" from Earth's science fiction, although with much more softer appearances.

"Here they are!" said Benladann. "Alright, let's get them out of there-"

[WARNING! WARNING! WARNING!]

[INTRUDERS DETECTED! BREACHING OF SECURITY DETECTED!]

"Ah right, we were in such a hurry that we didn't ask Kate to hack everything!" Miranda

facepalmed.

RUMBLE!

Suddenly, the walls right behind the people encapsulated opened, revealing over twenty more machines carrying huge guns powered up with electricity and starlight crystals.

And above all, something even larger than them...

ВАААМ!

A huge, scorpion-shaped machine with the upper half of its body resembling a huge burly humanoid made of metal, carrying two massive claws and giant machineguns.

[DEPLOYING EXPERT UNIT FOR SELF-DEFENSE: {SENTINEL A-11}]

[ORDERS ISSUED, DESTROY ALL INTRUDERS.]

The giant sentinel's single eye glowed bright red, as it charged towards them without any

regard for the encapsulated people in front of it.

"That thing's going to run over everyone!" Miranda cried.

Everyone ran to save them, expanding their domains and their authorities to grab these tubes

and drag them towards them.

However, at this speed, it would be too late!

"Freeze!"

However, Kate stepped forward, her eyes glowing bright silver and blue as her Divinity surged

stronger than ever before, merging with her own Living Domain.

And then, all the machines froze, halting all movement.
