They didn't need a long time to complete the Quest. Since no one was trying to mess up the setting of this apocalypse any more, everything was running smoothly.

As soon as they finished killing the remaining 160 Wendigos, they received the same notification.

They get Exp rewards that even though not enough to make them Level up. Yet it's still better than getting nothing.

After returning to the motel, they immediately discussed what would happen tomorrow.

The seven people sat in the lobby. The Regressors started to say what they knew.

"Tomorrow, we will face an apocalypse that occurred because the AI ​​decided that humans must be exterminated. That's what we will hear in the notification," Rodney said.

"We're going to fight robots, huh?" Sonya said. "Whoever created this apocalypse doesn't seem very creative, do they?"

After saying her sarcastic remark, Sonya drank her cold canned coffee.

Meanwhile, Clyde just saw the reason why he got [Skill: Hacking] from Gremory. It was to get him ready for tomorrow's Chapter.

If they were going to fight the computer, then the skill would come in handy.

"What else will happen?" Asqa asked.

"Everything will go pretty much the same as before," Mona replied. "We will face the attacks of the robots until it is time for us to fight the BOSS. But the robots won't stop attacking until the BOSS appears."

"Damn, they're going to attack non-stop?" Sonya looked in disbelief.

Mona nodded.

Sonya dropped her back against the back of the chair and shook her head. She was at a loss for words to express how much she hated all of this.

"What else?" Clyde asked.

"That's it. But I guess that's enough trouble for us, right?" Reed said.

"If that is it I will be going to bed now," Clyde said then stood up from his chair.

Clyde walked away from that place. Rodney watched him leave. As soon as he confirmed he had entered the room with the sound of the door closing, Rodney started to speak.

"He seems very calm for such a dangerous situation we are about to find ourselves in."

"Well, he's strong after all," Sonya said.

"You didn't ask where he went this afternoon?" Rodney asked while looking at Sonya and Asqa.

Sonya and Asqa exchanged glances. Their eyes seemed to question whether they should say what Clyde had said to them.

But then Sonya nodded because Clyde had said nothing about keeping the information secret.

"Clyde said he met with several beings who gave him important information," Sonya said.

And then, she started to tell them about what she heard from Clyde earlier.

Reed, Eric, and Mona looked shocked. But Rodney just stared at Sonya in silence. Then he knew that it would look suspicious so Rodney immediately put on a shocked face as well.

"So we went through all of this because we were selected for something?!" Reed said, looking in disbelief.

"That's what I heard from Clyde," said Sonya.

"I had to watch the people I love die horribly because the damn beings behind the apocalypse made the selection," Eric said with a tight jaw and a growling voice. There was a glint of vengeance in his eyes that was so obvious.

Mona on the other hand was speechless and could only stare blankly ahead with unblinking eyes and slightly parted lips.

Her expression looked like someone who had just heard the most shocking news until her whole body stiffened.

Rodney is also struggling with his thoughts.

'How did he know about all that? And who else did he meet?!'

Rodney of course already knew what this apocalypse was all about. He knew after contracting with a Celestial to obtain that information.

Rodney also believes that Clyde got the information from the Celestials because - Rodney thought - only those who made a contract with the Celestials know about it.

'So... is he also in a contract with a Celestial? No, that's out of the question. If he manages to get that information, certainly, he is indeed in a contract with a Celestial. Or could it be, his power also comes from Celestial?'

"Whatever happened, now everything has happened. We can't do anything but move on and try to survive," Rodney said.

It took them a long time to absorb those words. But in the end, they agreed on what Rodney said.

Everything has happened and they can only move on even though the hatred and sadness that surrounds their hearts are so strong.

"You're right," Eric said, looking ahead with those vengeful eyes. "We have to hold on. Until the time comes when we find out who's behind all this."

Eric has a great motivation for revenge. They understand her feelings.

After that, they all went to their respective rooms to sleep.

The next day comes, and the sound of the notification that echoes in the air sounds so loud and greets them when they open their eyes.

[ATTENTION! ]

[The Third Chapter will start now! ]

[ THE THIRD CHAPTER "TIME OF THE MACHINE" BEGINS NOW! ]

[CHAPTER 3: TIME OF THE MACHINES. ]ραпdα `nᴏνɐ| сom

[ DIFFICULTY: A. ]

[ OBJECTIVE: THE TIME OF AI HAS ARRIVED. THE AI THINKS HUMANS ARE THE ENEMIES THAT MUST BE EXTERMINED. SURVIVE FROM ATTACKS ON ROBOTS AND MACHINES! ]

Clyde got up from his bed and looked once again at the notification in front of his eyes.

Now he saw that the difficulty level that should have been A had become C. It wasn't just one level lower, but two levels.

Clyde grinned and snorted. "Whoever has given me this Private Attribute, I am very grateful to you."

Clyde then wears the Elderglass Sword at his waist. Then put on the Dark Night Coat which was torn in the arm due to the red Wendigo's attack yesterday.

But for him now it's not a problem at all.

When he came out of his room, what greeted Clyde wasn't Asqa, Sonya, or one of the four Regressors.

But a robot with a shape like a human skeleton. The robot's entire body was made of shiny black metal and its eyes glowed a bright red that was almost blinding.

"Target detected. Begins annihilation process."

The mechanical sound of the robot was heard without the robot opening its mouth. The robot then raised its right hand.

Turns out there was already a rifle in there.

*JYUUU!*

A voice that sounded like a sound effect was heard. Then a reddish laser shot from the muzzle of the rifle toward Clyde.

The laser hit Clyde and he was sent flying backward against the wall.

But he didn't fall. Instead, Clyde was still standing firmly on his two legs as if he had just been pushed by someone.

The robot aimed its gun at Clyde again.

*JYUUU!*

Clyde rolled onto his side. Then without pausing too long, he dashed toward the robot and kicked it.

*DUAGH!*

The robot was thrown backward and through the wall.

Clyde walked out of the room. He heard a commotion from around him.

As it turned out, the doors of the other rooms were already open. From within the room came the sounds of screaming and the commotion of fighting.

Moments later a robot similar to the one that had attacked Clyde is pushed out of Sonya and Asqa's room.

Then an arrow came and stuck in the robot's head.

*CZZTT!*

*SSSS...*

There was a hissing sound from it. Then the robot's eyes immediately went out. Indicates that it's dead.

Sonya came out shortly after and shot another arrow at its head.

"Is it dead now?" Asqa asked.

Sonya fired an arrow for the third time at the robot's head.

"Yeah, I think it's death," Sonya said.

Sonya then notices Clyde's presence and the hole in front of him. "You were also greeted by robots outside your door?"

Clyde answered with a curt nod.

"I didn't expect them to attack us so early. It was as if, they've been waiting for us at the door since last night," Sonya muttered angrily.

"What about the other?" Clyde asked.

"They are also fighting robots," Sonya answered.

That's right. Moments later robots came out of the Regressors' room.

ƥαṇdα-ηθνε|·ƈθm They immediately attacked the robots again and it didn't take long for them to kill the robots.

Then the sound of metal feet tapping on the floor was heard. Outside the motel, they saw dozens of robots surrounding them with rifles ready to fire.

There was a frustrated sigh from Sonya. Mona who heard from behind her said. "This is just the beginning. They will keep coming and attacking us when they see us."

Sonya stared at her bow. "This seems like a good time to look for a new weapon."

Sonya took the rifle that was in the hand of the robot she had just killed.

She broke the arm of the robot that wouldn't let go of its rifle easily.

Sonya then saw and checked her new weapon. Even though the rifle seemed too big for her, she could lift it with ease.

Sonya turned to Asqa. "How do you think?"

"You look cool." Asqa nodded approvingly.
