Space Odyssey from Abandoned Mining Space Station-Chapter 422 - 149 Chen Ming’s Approach_3

As soon as these assault boats hit the ground, the doors instantly sprung open, and a large number of combat robots from the Fourteenth Legion jumped out.

Some of the assault boats didn’t even bother with opening the doors; the robots directly broke through the boat’s armor from within.

The number of these robots, programmed solely for destruction, quickly surpassed the number of defensive units stationed by Dusk within a short time frame.

This was exactly what Chen Ming wanted to see.

During the sudden outbreak of combat on the defensive artillery platform.

Although Chen Ming did not always control the robots, he would intentionally allow the robots to show weaknesses at critical moments during engagements.

Letting the Fourteenth Legion’s robots deal damage to the Dusk-controlled robots, affecting the battle, but not enough to completely destroy them.

Thus providing a sufficient excuse to retreat from the battlefield while avoiding exposing the Dusk core he installed within them.

Moreover, Chen Ming had specifically modified these robots, placing the core at the most internal and robust parts of the robots, ensuring that such situations were unlikely.

Chen Ming was just being cautious.

After the robots from the third wave of assault boats destroyed a considerable amount of the defensive artillery platform’s installations and equipment. 𝒻𝑟ℯℯ𝑤𝑒𝑏𝑛𝘰𝓋𝑒𝓁.𝒸𝑜𝘮

All Fourteenth Legion robots were thoroughly cleared out.

However, the damage they inflicted on Dusk’s robots clearly exceeded the previous deployment of assault boats by the Fourteenth Legion.

Of course, this was under the circumstances where Chen Ming’s controlled robots were intentionally falling short.

But given the initial premise where the number of Fourteenth Legion robots exceeded the defensive units.

This situation was quite normal and not worth worrying about for Dusk.

The damaged robots were quickly gathered and prepared to be sent for maintenance via the orbital logistics system.

And due to the ongoing battle in the direction where the defensive artillery platform faced off against the Fourteenth Legion.

A large number of damaged ships were undergoing repair at nearby mechanical workshops and repair facilities.

Additionally, other factories in various locations also had ships under maintenance.

Thus, this batch of damaged Dusk robots was split into three groups, placed on different orbital logistics vehicles, and transported to various locations.

When the visual sensors of the robots controlled by Chen Ming saw the factory gates at the end of the logistics passage.

He knew his chance had come, and he had to act immediately.

Because once inside the factory, the first step for Dusk would definitely be to scan this batch of robots to assess the damage for subsequent repairs.

During this process, the Dusk core installed inside the robots by Chen Ming would inevitably be exposed.

So, before such a thing happened and before the orbital transport vehicles entered the factory.

Chen Ming proactively sabotaged the weapon of one robot under his control.

A massive burst of electrical sparks erupted on the logistics vehicle, triggering a chain reaction as another robot nearby also erupted in sparks.

And its weapon system suddenly went out of control, firing indiscriminately as if misfiring.

This instantly led to another robot encountering unexpected issues.

A series of chain reactions unfolded like a string of fireworks on the vehicle.

Directly causing the following orbital logistics vehicle to make an emergency stop and come to a halt.

But an even more unexpected situation occurred.

The weapon malfunction of the Dusk robots in front caused some stray bullets to hit the following transport vehicle.

And this, in turn, triggered another accident.

The battery fluid of a robot leaked, directly igniting half of the logistics vehicle.

One logistics vehicle can hold ten robots.

With two vehicles combined, at least a dozen robots encountered issues.

In fact, Chen Ming controlled only five robots here; the rest were genuinely unintended chain reactions.

Additionally, since these robots were already damaged, unexpected incidents were quite normal.

So far, Dusk had not yet become suspicious.

Only the factory quickly dispatched a robotic team to handle the chaotic scene.

Seizing this extremely chaotic moment.

One robot suddenly exploded again, pushing another robot to the wall.

And in the next moment, intentionally or unintentionally, it destroyed the energy supply core of the robot by the wall.

A violent explosion occurred in the logistics passage.

The shattered wall, accompanied by a massive amount of electrical sparks, instantly blew open a large hole in the wall.

The exposed damaged wiring inside the wall caused the lights in the cargo passage to flicker.

However, the timely activation of the backup power source prevented any trouble in the cargo passage.

At this moment, Dusk, controlling the robotic team sent to handle the robots, quickly issued a forced shutdown signal using its advanced control permissions.

But the signal receiving components of the robot that caused the situation did not receive this signal at all.

It even returned a series of fault loop lock codes.

Such performance clearly indicated a malfunction in the combat system chip.

This did not arouse suspicion from Dusk, who immediately took the best action in response to this situation.

Directly having the approaching robots raise their weapons and destroy the head of this robot, where the combat system chip was installed.
