Chapter 680: Commie Threat!

The only problem with Mid-Combat Teleportation, was the fact he would need to stand still for a couple of seconds for the satellite to lock onto him. Even with the Teleportation Extenders, it wasn't an instant process, leaving many vulnerabilities for the enemy to exploit, should they recognise what was happening.

Once the dust and sand clear, allowing Afton is able to see Liberty Prime again, he pulls out the Sonic Emitter and fires a couple shots at it, intending to disable its shields... Only for the sonic projectiles to do basically nothing!

They bounce off of its shields, only causing a ripple and nothing else... It seems as if its shields were different enough from Big Mt's shields to resist the Sonic Emitter... "Nyx, did you get any readings?" he asks, knowing that the Sonic Emitter picks up information from the thing's it hits.

"Negative."

"Fuck." he spits, wondering if there was anything that could actually bring it down?

Elsewhere :

Tamia glances at Veronica as Afton leaves, both watching him as he faces down the giant robot. "Think he'll be alright?"

Veronica shrugs, "Probably? Josie'll go beat his ass in hell if he isn't." she says before moving to defend the southern part of the wall. Christine does the same, heading to the north and leaving Tamia alone to defend her current position.

"COMMUNIST DETECTED ON AMERICAN SOIL; LETHAL FORCE ENGAGED!" Liberty Prime's robotic voice echoes through the place, the robot trying to stomp on Afton, who leaps backwards to evade it.

Tamia warily watches as the robot takes a nuke from its back and throws it at Afton, who dodges it via teleportation. Once dust fills the area, she gets to work, ordering the defences to start firing at the advancing Brotherhood forces.

While the ground army wasn't willing to get ahead of Liberty Prime, their aerial forces were quickly flying towards them. The Bulwark AA guns were spraying many high-calibre bullets at the aircrafts, homing missiles and other explosives also being launched.

A great many Brotherhood Vertibirds are knocked out of the sky by this, but many manage to dodge the homing missiles by releasing flares that confuse and disorient the targeting systems... This turns out to be good for Bulwark anyway, as the confused missiles slam into the Brotherhood ground forces anyway.

By the time the Brotherhood Vertibirds reach the Bulwark wall, over half of their aerial forces had been destroyed... Most armies would have retreated by now due to the massive loss of life, but the Brotherhood kept going, letting many men in Power armour drop onto the wall once the Vertibirds were in position.

Tamia ignites her Proton-Greatsword and blocks the laser and Gauss fire as the soldiers descend, charging them once they reach the ground.

The soldiers assumed their Power armour would protect them against her attacks, which is why they were so surprised when her blade easily cut through them, bisecting and decapitating those caught off guard.

*Clink! Clank!*

Bullets from a Minigun and laser fun deflect off of her armour from above by the circling Vertibirds. The suppressing fire is almost enough to force Tamia to hunker down, but the AA turrets quickly draw the Vertibird's attention with another volley of missiles.

Tamia stops shielding her face and looks up, finding another squadron of Brotherhood soldiers advancing on her position, hoping to knock out the central security system controlling the weapon systems.

She leaps back into the fray, cutting the enemy to pieces, but doesn't notice the single soldier who'd managed to sneak behind her. They give a power armour enhanced kick at the door leading inside the fortifications, but find that it's too reinforced to damage...

Tamia hears the noise though, and quickly starts approaching the now scared-shitless man. Ignoring the door, he throws himself against the concrete wall, somehow finding a weak point and going through it.

The man quickly gets up, but realises his error when he comes face to face with many Ultimo-Bots that had already begun charging up their weapons...

"Er, I surrender...?"

*BANGBANGBANGBANG!*

Elsewhere :

Back with Afton, it seems that Liberty Prime had some sort of lock-on system, as the robot didn't wait a moment after the dust had cleared and immediately began advancing towards Afton yet again.

This time though, instead of trying to stomp on him or throw another nuke, its visor lights up with a blue glow. Afton's Danger Sense warned him to move, allowing him to barely avoid the massive laser shot by the robot.

The blue laser it fired was incredibly strong, its size was enough to envelope a man, and the intensity might even match Bulwark's own green lasers.

Again, its visor glows, indicating that it was going to fire again, forcing Afton to keep dodging to avoid the barrage of attacks it was throwing.

Bullets and other smaller lasers bounce off of his back, as the Brotherhood ground army tries to help Liberty Prime in taking him down, but his armour's DT, and his own durability and stats made any damage they managed to deal minimal at best. Even if they dealt damage, his regeneration healed it in the blink of an eye.

No, the only real threat to Afton here was Liberty Prime itself. He barely avoids another eye-laser and begins sprinting towards the robot, using his plant arms like Attack on Titan's Omni-Directional Mobility equipment. Winching himself from place to place after attaching it like your favourite webslinger.

"Nyx, how do I hurt this thing!?" he shouts, drawing his Ultra-Chainsword with hopes of somehow getting through its shields.

"Sir, perhaps we could use the teleportation relays to destabilise them?"

He spins through the air after evading another laser beam, quickly thinking on whether Nyx's suggestion would actually work... Such a thing probably wouldn't work against Bulwark's shields, but Liberty Prime's own look thin, and rather fragile to be honest... Perhaps a blast of dematerializing lightning would do the trick?
