The Zetta Sonic
Stealthy

The journey is not as comfortable as a cruise ship. For Alex who first boarded the submarine, the trip had its own excitement. The water that shackles them is like the night sky with small bubbles and a variety of fish. The only lights on the submarine itself. They rely more on radar than on existing lights.

When they arrived at their destination, the ship came to the surface. Jayden's been checking the safe side of security cameras. From there, Alex can get off the ship without fear of being discovered.

“Any action?” ask Jayden.

“Of course!” Alex throws a smile. Without the need to press a button or speak anything, a black hexagon frag crossed his face. His head was covered in a perfect helmet with the same shape as before. The eyes are similar to glasses rather pointy, the ears are covered with oval pieces rather prominent. The commands in his brain were accurately translated by the uniform. “I like this new uniform.”

“And, I love my new drone. Meet, Jason!” Jayden's drone is gleaming green. His body slowly rose into the air. The front flashed once more, down Alex's face. After a slow ‘pip’ sound, Jason floated to Alex's side. “He'll be my assistant out there.”

“You want me to keep it so it doesn't break?” Alex stood up, finding Jason spinning around to her as if they were exchanging glances.

“Do not joke. Jason will protect you.”

Alex grunts amusedly. With Jason, he came out the same door when he came in. Both are on the side of the wall. In the helmet, Alex gets a clearer and cleaner view than before. He or she may also have special warnings regarding areas highlighted by surveillance cameras.

They slipped slowly behind the shadow of the building towards the back door. The door is a large rolling door that is always open. It was seen that some factory workers were passing the goods and loading them into container trucks. Alex activates stealth mode. He slipped among the workers unnoticed.

The only reason why Alex doesn't use stealth mode right away is about timing. The system has not been perfected to date. Even if Alex feels he is more able to blend in with the surrounding conditions, there are other things that need to be considered. It's about time. In his manual, Alex only gets two minutes of effective time if used continuously. After that, he would have to wait at least ten minutes to use it again. Ignoring that warning is feared this mode will fail to work properly. As much as possible, Alex saves it.

Worrying about Jason, he glanced at the drone that was supposed to be behind him. Niente. He didn't find anything. Just then, the sight of his helmet displayed a silhouette of stripes in the air similar to a drone.

“Jason can also stealth mode?” guess Alex.

[Sweet ‘kan?]

“In the wrong hands, this drone could be a killer tool.”

[About!]

Alex follows the scheme of the building plastered on his screen. He's walking down the barn to the left. There, he found a dead-end passageway with two doors on the right and left sides. The secret door was precisely on the wall of the plain dead end.

[Get Zet-Arm to the left side.]

According to Jayden's orders, he brought his left arm closer to it. Alex saw a faint glow of lines emitted by Zet-Arm. They're sweeping the walls. Before long, Alex saw the panel there. The panel is covered in holographic images, making it similar to a regular wall.

Alex already knew that the wall in front of him was nothing more than a hologram, but imagining himself breaking through the wall felt a little awkward. Alex took a deep breath before banging himself forward. He broke through the wall without a problem. Like ghosts.

In front of him, lay another gray hallway. The lighting is better. Very bright if you do not want to use the word blinding. The sounds of humming and splashing were heard from far away. The deeper he walked, the stronger the smell of plastic and iron. At the end of the hallway, there is a glass wall with a perfect view to the bottom.

Alex slipping. He sees the complicated fabrication mechanism. Long rails weave through one large section to another. The pieces of the robot were made quickly flawlessly. Two boredom officers beside the machine panel. Another one wearing a white lab coat stood at the end, examining the robot pieces.

“This is crazy! I didn't think they could make it like this. Imagine if this factory was open twenty-four hours. How many killer robots have already been sent out there?” Alex was flabbergasted there.

[Hey, it's not that easy. Making the outside can indeed be done with a machine but entering the program into it is another story. It has to be done manually. Wrong bit, the robot will destroy the programmer. I'm sure you'll find a special room for failed products there.]

Alex moving. He went down the glass wall and down the stairs to the right side. So far, he had not seen anyone other than the two people earlier. Filip Shah seems to minimize the workers who are there. The more work makes production more easily discovered.

Below, there are many other rooms. They all have iron walls and glass. It reminds Alex of a car repair shop or a large hospital room. There was an empty, dark room, there was another room where a researcher was programming his robot. There are four such rooms.

One programmer slammed his screwdriver onto the floor. He moved towards the table, picked up the scissors then returned to the robot that stood lifeless in the middle. He cut some cables that protrude outside. He pulled it out, changed some parts. Jayden was right about hard programming.

[Alex, your time!]

Alex is moving fast. He threw a small tube into an empty tub that was in the corner of the room. His feet crossed the room, then threw the tube behind the garbage can. Here's the idea, make a fake smoke and set off a fire alarm. Once the same guy gets out, Alex will set up the real explosive.

This will reduce the casualties.

Alex went down the other hallway. He hid the canister in the garbage again. Then, Alex fell silent in a glass-walled room. Inside, three researchers wore lab coats and protective goggles. Right in the middle, he saw a killer robot like Nikola's.

The robot has a large hand with five fingers. The legs are like human feet, not wheels. His body was covered in grey plastic material. Cables dangling from his back and head. Alex swore that two circles had just shone from the head of the upside-down egg model.

Simultaneously, there was a faint buzzing sound. The body of the robot that had been shaking now shook slowly. His hand is raised up. His feet stepped out of the podium where he stood. This movement makes the cables come off. Small electric sparks sprung up following the panic of the robots.

The robot saw it!

[Run, Alex!]

That robot saw the Zetta Sonic in stealth mode?
