Observing this T-750 model detail information, Sheyan felt that the T-750 Terminator is a model number, not a fixed construction. Just like how a car has several components in terms of stability/ horsepower etc and being able to upgrade or change the specifications. The T-750 had different equipment specifications, additional tools as well as battle programming. Programming had 4 big classifications namely close combat, long range, explosive and defensive kinds. The one that Sheyan encountered was the close combat class T-750 terminator, its programming and equipments all suited for close combat. He could now understand why the Terminator did not utilize any firepower, it was not programmed with the specifications of utilizing firearms or explosives, using it would be a disaster!

“Then…” Sheyan’s thick black brows jumped. He suddenly recalled something. That was the other T-750 terminator that he witnessed. Its gun skills had such precision, naturally, Sheyan was able to deduce that its programming was a proficient in light firearms one. Also, that T-750 Terminator was not really hindered even after receiving an assault from the Delta anti-terror task force, which meant that he should be wearing the point to point “Support” artificial skin! Therefore, its threat towards Sheyan was extremely low, once Sheyan could come close, he could totally destroy the Terminator not programmed for close combat .

Sheyan was extremely decisive, he knew “knowing thyself and thy enemies” will lead him to triumph in a hundreds of battles. Faced with such good news, it was impossible to stop him as he discarded any thoughts of leaving but instead started plotting. His only concern was: If this T-750 Terminator was equipped with a light armament tracking system, being able to scan its surroundings for any light firearms or ammunition within a 200 metre radius. If it was able to locate a hi-power pistol like the M500/ Desert Eagle and was prepared for it, then it would be extremely disadvantageous for Sheyan.

In all things, there will always be probabilities. Ahead was the northern district of Los Angeles, also acclaimed as the upper class district. Street safety and civilians living environments were all extremely in order, crime rate was lower here than the southern gangster plagued district by 20%. America had a freedom of firearms policy, and it was virtually impossible for the people living here did not possess a gun. However, under the law coupled with such a peaceful and safe environment, possessing a light firearm with much higher lethal potential were still a possibility. Furthermore, the police as well as the Delta anti-terror task force had already consumed a great deal of them Terminator’s ammunition. That was the main reason Sheyan once again decided to tread on muddy waters! (Chinese idiom meaning treading on dangerous grounds)

After a short moment of resting and simple medical treatment, Sheyan’s condition had recovered to about 80% of his fullest potential. To have such good regeneration, one reason was because of his high points on physique, and the second reason was that all his wounds were purely superficial. If one’s wounds were extremely serious, then this would influence the body’s regenerative capabilities. Listing a simple example, if Sheyan had suffered a huge fracture in battle, he would have needed more than an hour to recover.

Within these few minutes, Sheyan had also heard a distant shootings and explosions which signified that the battle against the T-750 terminator had not yet ended. Casually putting on a set of clothes he found in the kitchen, he immediately headed of on his motorbike towards the ruckus.

From a distance of 2-3 km, Sheyan could see from afar groups of terrified civilians screaming and fleeing. Some were only wearing their underwear. There were also several roadblocks set up by the Los Angeles police. These roadblocks primary intention was to keep any external parties from entering the hostile zone. Simply speaking it was to prevent any sort of movement between regions. Sheyan charging in now wasn’t a problem, he just had no way of avoiding a conflict with the police. However, Sheyan had already anticipated this situation, he parked his motorbike from afar. Wearing his sunglasses, he frantically ran forward, raising both hands in a frenzied manner while shouting at the top of his lungs:

”“Oh noo! You bastards! Let me in! My poor Billie is still stuck at home! That crazy lunatic will surely kill him!”

The policeman raised his brows at Sheyan, it was hard to handle or negotiate with such an agitated civilian. Especially under this horrifying circumstance where an outburst can trigger a large scale panic and riot. America was also a country based on valuing the views of every citizen, therefore, the two policeman immediately rushed to calm Sheyan down. However, they never expected Sheyan to had such strength and power. With a cry of anger, Sheyan easily shoved them aside, breaching the road block and running into the chaos.

Met with such a scene, the policemen looked at each other helplessly. At the end of the day this guy only wishes to go back to his house, how could they shoot him in the back? Pursuing and capturing him is a better idea, but this guy was like a madman with insane speed, in the blink of an eye he was already so far away…. The few policemen looked around, and then changed their gaze in unison as they all decided to ignore what had just happened.

Sheyan could easily tell from the bullet holes on the floor, both sides used a 9mm gun. Looking at this, Sheyan felt very blessed with his innate skill Endurance, enabling these impossible to dodge attacks much less threatening. It was at this moment, a low groan could be heard from the nearby building, followed by a sound of “Ge Ge Ge!”

This sound was very gentle and short on the ears, as ordinary people would never notice it. However, Sheyan was always more cautious than others, as if walking on thin ice all the time. His heart skipped a beat, as he unconsciously headed into the nearby building with big steps.

As he was nearing the building, Sheyan could smell a stench of strong fresh blood. His heart naturally became more on guard. His natural high perceptive sensing was able to sense danger ahead by a few seconds, thus he wasn’t the least bit anxious. He gently crept closer to the entrance, and abruptly without any notice, pushed open the door.
