What appeared in our collected vision was a few dozen molen that were much larger than the ones we've been encountering up to this point. Along with their bigger builds, they had better guns and actual armor that wasn't just a few thin pieces of tal attached to leather that most of their brethren were scurrying around in.
All those six foot tall molen guards were surrounding one huge moleman that stood at a bare minimum of eight feet in height. That particular moleman was equipped with its own set of makeshift armor too and a DMG-15 Double Barrel Machine Gun which was far superior compared to the weapons its guards were using.
Good, we've found the moleman king. Once I get rid of it, mopping up the rest should be no issue with their leader gone. Although it will still take quite so ti since I'm going to need to scour every inch of the cave system and clear it in its entirety.
Wanting to wrap things up here so I can get back to clearing the cave system and locking it down, I charged into the chamber with everyone while unloading my NPDM that was getting rather low on ammo again with all the molen hunting I've been doing. In the midst of firing at the many hostiles within the chamber, I made the decision to leave the guards to the old man and my robots to take care of while I focused on the number threat amongst the molen.
Thus leaving it to them, I took aim at the moleman king's head and shot a controlled burst of three rounds. Within far less than a second, they struck his helt, digging into it but not making their way through its armor.
Mm, his armor is thicker than I expected, smart. Let disable his weapon first before I figure out how I want to kill him. I don't particularly want to get laid into by two 7.62s simultaneously.
Not able to penetrate its armor, I swiftly adjusted my aim the very next instant to the moleman king's weapon and fired another burst, putting three sizable holes in the receiver of his double-barreled machine gun. The vermin, not knowing I had made his weapon inoperable, attempted to fire its weapon at , but when it pulled the trigger, all it provoked was a click and no other response.
As it was about to begin inspecting its weapon to see what was wrong with it, I realigned my weapon with its head; however, instead of just targeting its skull as I had done previously, I aid for the eyeholes of its helt because they were the only weak point I could take advantage of. All while this was going on, gramps and my robots were keeping the approximately six foot tall armored molen entertained, easily taking them down one by one.
Pulling the trigger once again I fired one round and after it left the muzzle brake at the end of my NPDM's barrel it sailed through the air and right into the moleman king's eye taking it out and causing a burst of blood and bits of the annihilated eye to fly out of the helt's socket. The following instant, the big fucker started screeching and moving erratically as it was experiencing the pain of losing one of its essential sensory organs.
Damn, this bastard's durable. I was expecting that round to pierce right through its eye and deal massive damage to its brain. However, seeing as it hasn't keeled over and dropped to the floor of its den, it must have a pretty thick skull to stop a whole ass 7.62x39mm round.
After firing that last round, I was out of ammunition, so I tossed my light machine gun aside and went to engage the moleman king in lee combat. I could've swapped to the two laser assault rifles I had on my back, but if my NPDM couldn't penetrate its armor, there is no way those two energy weapons would be able to.
Super heating it with continuous laser pulses was an option however, it would've taken quite a lot of ti to do so hence why I'm not. Sprinting ahead, I pulled the combat knife from the holster on my war belt and held it in reverse grip with the blade facing downward.
Rapidly approaching my prey, that was still flailing about and screeching in pain, I ramd my armored shoulder into it, trying to tackle and bring the moleman king to the ground. Sending the much larger and heavier creature than myself to the cave floor, I swiftly brought the combat knife in my hand down, precisely stabbing it in between the gaps in its armor. I got a few more stabs in before the brute threw off of him and sent flying around two ters away onto my back.
Rolling over, I quickly got on my feet and charged forward as the moleman king was struggling to its feet. Slamming into it again, I returned it to its place on the chamber's floor before jumping on top of it, and activating the new Martial Weapon Master qi I gained recently.
As soon as I coated my weapon in the energy, I inserted my knife wherever I could slide it in. Getting several more stabs in and drawing increasingly more blood from it, I got thrown off another ti, but instead of being thrown on my back for a second ti, I twisted my body while in midair, landing upright on my feet this ti around.
Not willing to let it have any sort of breather, I hurried over to it and took its other eye, making it screech even louder than before. From there I kept stabbing and ripping my gramp's old combat knife through the gaps in its armor plates and after several minutes of doing so and getting a punch sent at my head that rocked a decent bit, the king started to go limp.
With the creature losing strength, I pried its helt off that I attempted to do multiple tis before. Removing and throwing its helm away, the grotesque moleman king's face was revealed.
"Damn, you are one ugly bastard." I comnted aloud.
Receiving a tired screech in reply, I brought my knife down and stabbed it into its neck and began slicing it to the opposite side of its neck. It took so effort, but I got the job done and separated its head from its body, thus ending the fight then and there. Getting off of the moleman king's corpse, I took a deep breath and looked behind , seeing gramps with his helt off looking as proud as he could be at .
"You did it, kid. I guess you will accomplish those dreams of yours so day."
Taking my own helt off as well, I replied confidently. "I will."
"But I couldn't have done it without you, gramps. If not for all the training you put through and all the things you've shown and taught over the years, there is no way I would be where I'm at today without you. Not to ntion all the help you've provided to Alice as well, right Alice?"
"Dom, is right grandpa John, if it wasn't for you we wouldn't be anywhere near the level we are now. Thank you for spending so much ti helping us improve and beco better and better every day." Alice chid in appreciatively over the durable streaming device I was wearing.
"Yeah, thank you for taking the ti to help us, gramps. We both really appreciate it."
Gramps showed a twinge of emotion before covering it up and practically smiling from ear to ear at what he just heard. Obviously happy as can be to hear that we both appreciated him and the help he had provided to not just but Alice too over the years.
"As long as you two keep striving to improve, that's all I'll need to see to know that you two appreciate what I'm doing for you little rascals." The old man said prior to coming over to and bear hugging like the bear of a man he was.
The three of us talked for a bit more before Alice decided to get so words of appreciation for herself. "Hey, Dom, since grandpa John is getting so words of appreciation from you, what about ? I believe I deserve so as well."
If she were here with us now, I know with absolute certainty that she would be utilizing her glistening blue eyes and staring at expectantly. Unable to deny her request, I ca up with sothing quick on the spot.
"You were also instruntal to my success too, Alice. If not for you always helping out and supporting as much as you do, I wouldn't have been able to accomplish nearly as much as I have, let alone take down the moleman king."
"And…" She followed up with seeking a bit more than just words.
"And I suppose I should reward my ever helpful and loyal wife-to-be, who has stood by my side for nearly the entirety of my life."
"Nn, that's more like it. I'll be waiting to see what you have in store." She responded happily in her typical sweet voice that was laced with satisfaction and a bit of anticipation.
Sigh, I know she's going to attempt to push the boundary again, but that ain't happening. I already don't want to be doing what we're doing currently with her being a kid even though a big five foot six inch tall one with a very abnormal ntal maturity.
If there wasn't the issue of her possibly developing issues ntally from rejecting her advances like I've thought about in the past, I wouldn't be allowing what's been going on since I'm into actual developed won with sexy full figures and tight bodies like most n and not kids. But things are what they are even though I'd much rather they not be. Guess I'll just have to keep putting up with it for another seven years until she's an actual adult and I have the green light.
"You two lovebirds done. I'm about to start throwing up over here." Gramps joked from the side.
"Yeah, we're done, gramps, let's head on back and end things here for today. I think we've achieved enough for one day."
"Sounds good to . I'm gonna take a nice long nap when we get there."
After our conversation, gramps, I, and the robots scoured and looked through the cave for loot and anything else of interest. In our search we stumbled across what I thought to be the moleman king's family in a connected space in the chamber's rear, which consisted of two adult females and a litter of pups that they were attempting to protect by covering them with their body's.
Entering the space, fear was clear as day on the two adults' faces. I felt a twinge of emotion at what I was about to commit. Child killing wasn't my thing, but I needed to do what had to be done and not leave a single root that could germinate and co back to bite later on.
If Alice and I were in the sa position, the molen would've ruthlessly butchered us, so why should I show them compassion and give a damn when they wouldn't have shown us the sa.
Hardening my ntality, I brought one of the two laser assault rifles I was carrying with to my right hand and pointed it in their direction, and ruthlessly pressed the trigger. The red laser pulses lit the dimly lit space up for several seconds before things returned to how they once were when we first stepped into this room.
Finished tying up loose ends, we searched the room and gathered a decent haul to take with us and headed to the previous chamber. Ready to get this show back on the road, I had several of my mulitbots grab the four molen guards; I had them leave alive. One might ask why they were left alive, well the answer was rather simple: I require test subjects for my dical and drug experints I plan on doing real soon, consequently the reason why they haven't been exterminated like the rest.
With things wrapped up, we dragged the four molen guards away with us. Though not literally, since they were being carried to keep them from being hard any further than they already were, we began tracing our way back to the Genesis Foundry.
…
Likely, due to them no longer having a leader to direct them, we faced very little resistance while we were traveling through the expansive network of passages and chambers. It took us a few hours, but we made it back to the well defended armored doors of the foundry in one piece.
Coming upon the armored doors of the facility, I had them begin opening as we were closing in on them. And right as all of us had passed through, I shut them behind us, sealing the facility off from the danger the remnant molen posed. Finally, at base, we moved to the armory and dropped our gear off there, along with a good amount of the weapons and ammo we hauled with us.
Leaving the armory behind as my robots went off to the warehouse area of the foundry to deposit the rest of this trip's rewards, including locking up and the four molen guards, gramps and I walked to the planning/relaxation area. As the both of us ca strolling through the door, I was unsurprisingly jumped by an excited Alice that was happy to see and gramps return from our excursion unhard, mostly.
Back in the foundry's safety, we took a seat and started conversing about what transpired and after doing so for a decent while the old man left Alice and I here to continue while he occupied a couch for himself along with a soft gray blanket and whatever else he needed to take a comfortable nap.
"It's good you only got so light bruising from your fight with that moleman king. You know you could've gotten seriously hurt from that close combat fight of yours, right?"
"I know, but I knew if I had any trouble, gramps and robots would've rushed over to my aid and in a heartbeat and curb stomped the ever living shit out of the moleman king, so it wasn't that dangerous in fact. The fight also allowed to gain so real hand to hand combat experience, which knowing my goals will make my future endeavors safer for both you and I when we start exploring the wasteland."
"So overall I would say it was well worth it and besides, I injected a couple of dstims already, thus I'll be good as new in no ti at all."
As we wrapped up that bit and moved onto what she had learned today whilst I was in the cave system with grandpa John getting rid of the molen infestation, I received a sudden notification.
