Counterfeit Hero Chapter 306: Volume 4, - 57: Artificial Cave

Just as Tian Xingjian had guessed, Bonnie indeed had acrophobia; this was her most hidden weakness, even Reinhardt didn’t know. Unexpectedly, in her panic, it was exposed in front of the conniving Fatty.

As a cha Warrior, leaping and maneuvering on cliffs was unavoidable. Fortunately, acrophobia sufferers only wouldn’t have an episode if they didn’t directly face dizzying heights. Bonnie’s modified [Mika] with its fully enclosed simulated control system completely helped her overco the fear brought by facing heights directly. This is why she persisted in using a sixth-generation private cha even after [Vajra] was produced.

In this unfamiliar cha, flying and leaping from danger to survival was an experience Bonnie had never felt before. Unexpectedly, at the last mont, she jumped off the cliff with her eyes wide open.

Although she had already cursed the Fatty who tied her to his "pirate ship" in her heart, when the rocks loosened, looking at the endless abyss beneath her, Bonnie instinctively clung to Fatty like a drowning person grabbing a floating straw.

"Groan!" The rock tilted downward again, causing Bonnie to scream once more.

On this steep cliff, there was nothing but a few crooked small trees and this protruding rock. There was no place for the over ten-ton [Logic] to set foot. Seeing the rock loosening bit by bit, Fatty knew he couldn’t wait any longer. He pulled the control lever, [Logic]’s right hand pulled, and the entire body leapt into the air, directly heading towards the cliff above the rock.

As [Logic] leapt into the air, its right arm spikes fiercely pierced into the stone wall. Its feet kicked several tis on the cliff, forcibly creating two shallow hollows. Just as it stood firm, the protruding rock below couldn’t endure anymore and with a crack, the rear part inserted into the cliff completely broke off and fell into the abyss amidst countless rubble and soil. After a long ti, the sound of rocks hitting the bottom of the cliff could be heard.

"Whew!" Tian Xingjian breathed a sigh of relief and wiped his cold sweat. He could clearly hear Bonnie’s heart pounding on his back. For a mont, the cockpit was silent. Only the system’s red warning lights kept reminding the two that the cha, with its left arm transmission rod broken and overall damage at seventy percent, no longer had the ability to climb out of here.

Stuck between heaven and earth, Tian Xingjian knew unless he could restore [Logic]’s left arm function or repair the auxiliary thruster, he’d never be able to leave here. He looked around and saw the only place for him to repair [Logic] was the hollow ford by the falling rock below.

Half of the hollow was still blocked by the crumbling rock, the other half was open, dark and deep. According to Fatty’s estimation, it was impossible to fit all of [Logic] inside, but it could fit half and use the right arm to form a support under the cave entrance, making repairs barely possible.

[Logic] cautiously pulled out the right arm spike from the cliff. As the cha slid downward montarily, the right arm hooked onto the cave top, leveraging a kick to dislodge the loose rocks and explore within. Fatty didn’t expect, what he thought could only fit half of [Logic]’s body, to be so deep; with one kick, the entire body went into the cave.

As soon as they landed, Fatty felt Bonnie’s rapid breathing and a blow to the back of his neck. He chuckled, elbow struck backward fiercely at Bonnie’s abdon, showing no rcy. Bonnie curled up in pain inside the cockpit, unable to straighten up.

Fatty rubbed his neck, picked up a rope and shook it, unceremoniously tying up Bonnie while muttering, "Damn it, I’ve taught those kids countless tis how to tie soone properly." As he spoke, he fully implented the SM thod, swiftly tying Bonnie into curvy shapes, tying a knot, clapping his hands in satisfaction, nodded approvingly before Bonnie’s fiery gaze, and crawled out of the cockpit.

As soon as he stepped out of the cockpit, Fatty was stunned. This wasn’t the hollow he imagined, it was simply a tunnel! Inside was pitch black, and he had no idea how deep it went. He looked at the cave entrance, pondering how such a deep cave could exist behind a protruding rock.

He retrieved the automatic repair arm from [Logic]’s toolbox and noticed it felt heavier. Surprised by the intense geomagnetic interference in the ravine, if not for the high-strength engineering plastic of the repair arm, he wouldn’t be able to lift it, let alone repair [Logic].

Fatty opened [Logic]’s armor casing, started the automatic detection system with the battery, connected the repair arm with a data cable for manual inspection. The results were disheartening: the quick data on the electronic screen showed that damage to fundantal systems like energy, transmission, and balance couldn’t be fixed solely with the repair arm.

Nearly thirty parts needed replacent! Where in this desolate cave could he find parts? Even raw materials to make less precise replacents were missing! Using only the tools and parts in the toolbox, Fatty knew he could only restore fifty percent of [Logic]’s functionality at most. However, there was no solution for the critical left arm external transmission rod and auxiliary thruster.

Feeling despondent while looking at the repair arm’s data, Fatty’s peripheral vision caught sothing unusual—two smooth and straight parallel grooves on the cave wall opposite him. Turning around sharply, he saw the sa grooves on the cave wall behind him.

Though he didn’t know the purpose of the four tal-gleaming grooves, one thing was clear: the cave was man-made! Looking towards the pitch darkness deeper in the cave, Fatty was both excited and curious. Finding artificial traces here ant there must be a path to the surface. Otherwise, how would the cave’s creators leave? What else lay deeper in the cave besides the exit?

After checking [Logic], Fatty decided to explore the cave’s depths. Who knows, he might find sothing useful. Moreover, the sudden appearance of an underground cave in this geomagnetic black hole valley was eerie. If this were a secret base of the Gazalin Empire, understanding the cave’s terrain and enemy situation before being discovered was basic knowledge for a Special Reconnaissance Soldier.

Fatty climbed into [Logic]’s cockpit and grabbed Bonnie, who was tied in an exaggeratedly provocative posture. Bonnie angrily yelled, "What are you doing?"

Fatty raised an eyebrow and said, "Just moving you to a new spot. Don’t scream like I’m trying to rape you!"

Bonnie’s face softened a bit, but then the scoundrel reluctantly added, "Or else, scream a bit more. Maybe I’ll be so aggrieved that I’ll grant your wish and make your dream co true. Just take it as a life-saving favor."

Bonnie bit her lip hard, her whole body trembling in anger.

Fatty gave a perverted smile, dragged Bonnie into the cave, and then climbed back into [Logic]. "I’ll show you a magic trick, don’t blink!" He operated [Logic] to sit up, leaning against the cave wall, legs spread open. With a "pop" sound, a highly flexible chanical arm popped out from [Logic]’s crotch, curiously looking around.

"Wow, such a big one."... That was Fatty’s voice.

Seeing the chanical arm seemingly finding its target and reaching out toward her, Bonnie almost fainted. This Fatty had reached an indescribable level of shalessness.

Fatty manipulated the chanical arm to grab Bonnie and place her in [Logic]’s crotch area, then retracted the chanical arm. [Logic]’s two chanical hands covered the crotch, curling up and showing a highly pained expression, trapping Bonnie firmly inside.

"Ugh... keeping in such a place!"... That was also Fatty’s voice. Bonnie really wanted to leap on this fat bastard and bite a piece of flesh off him!

Watching the world’s most abhorrent Fatty jump out of the cockpit, standing outside boastfully, taking a full set of special equipnt from the toolbox, and shalessly stripping completely naked in front of her to dress up, Bonnie was utterly deflated. This person had the thickest skin, zero sense of sha, and a mind filled with obscene thoughts. Trying to argue with such a person was truly self-humiliation.

As she lay on the cold ground, silently watching Fatty, who transford into a Special Soldier, dress up neatly, and check his equipnt with aesthetically pleasing proficiency, Bonnie felt a bit dazed. It was hard for her to describe her feelings at that mont, whether it was more of a sense of defeat or humiliation. The one thing she could be sure of was that at this mont, she was no longer that proud Bonnie who kept people at arm’s length. At least, not in front of this Fatty.

In front of this Fatty, for the first ti in her life, Bonnie felt a sense of weakness and powerlessness. Her face reddened slightly; this feeling was especially strong when she leaned on Fatty’s broad back earlier.

"Fatty, don’t ever fall into my hands! I’ll definitely kill you!" Bonnie suddenly yelled in sha and annoyance at the Fatty who was preparing to walk deeper into the cave.

Fatty paused but eventually continued walking deeper into the cave without turning back, only mumbling, "Rape first, then kill, how about that?"
