Bang!
With the last swing of the fighting robot, the dog collapsed in the corner of the iron cage, exhausted. It struggled a few times, but in the end, it had no strength to get up again.
“KO!”
Child Emperor licked his lollipop and shook his fingers proudly. “Uncles, what do you think of my new invention? No matter which direction the dog attacks from, Bookworm perfectly predicted it.”
The eyes of the association staff lit up. “Child Emperor, if your experiment succeeds, it will be a blessing for the Heroes. It will make it easier to kill Monsters in the future and greatly increase the Association’s combat efficiency.”
“It’s not that powerful. Besides, Bookworm is still in the experimental stage. It will take a long time to finish tweaking its bugs.” Child Emperor replied modestly.
The staff member continued his flattery, “Even in the experimental stage, you can see its great prospect. It will definitely be essential equipment for the Association’s Heroes in the future. Child Emperor is so young, yet he can already invent a technology with great significance. In the future, he will definitely leave a significant mark in the history of human technology.”
“Hahaha, you flatter me.” Child Emperor smiled and said, “But, Uncle, it’s your turn to experiment now. Please get ready.”
He called out to the fighting robot. The fighting robot immediately came out of the iron cage and walked to the staff member.
“I’m already prepared. We can start anytime.” The staff member stared at the cold fighting robot and swallowed hard. “Child Emperor, do I need to attack with all my strength? And
 wouldn’t it attack me?”
Tanktop Boxer snorted disdainfully, “If you are afraid, just stop. No one is forcing you to do experiments.”
“Ha
 Haha, Mr. Tanktop Boxer is joking. Of course, I am very happy to help Child Emperor complete the experiment.” The staff laughed with guilt.
“Don’t worry, I set up the program myself. It will only deflect your attack and will never fight back.” Child Emperor promised, “The purpose of this experiment is only to collect data. I have installed a data collection, processing, and analysis system in it. It will collect and analyze your muscle and movement data when you attack it. It will stop after appropriately deflecting your attack instead of counterattacking.”
“Got it.” The staff heaved a sigh of relief. His body tensed up, and his fists clenched tightly.
“Let’s begin!”
Child Emperor watched the staff member and the fighting robot excitedly.
“Ha!”
The staff member shouted and punched the fighting robot directly.
Puff!
The fighting robot suddenly raised its hand and caught the staff member’s fist in its palm.
“Huh?”
The staff member tried to pull his fist a few times but found that the robot’s hand wouldn’t budge. He smiled awkwardly at the other people in the room.
King’s mouth twitched. He had a headache imagining if he encountered such an awkward situation later. Well, he must consume a Card to strengthen his fist against the robot. He could not afford to lose face!
After a while, the fighting robot loosened its palm and let go of the staff member’s fist.
“Ha!”
The staff member’s eyes flashed, and he screamed again. He launched an attack on the fighting robot and punched.
“Idiot, you actually fell down twice in the same place. Moreover, this soft fist is like a massage; it’s not even a threat.” The Tanktop Boxer looked at the staff member who repeated the same attack with disdain, already expecting the reaction of the fighting robot.
King glanced at the Tanktop Boxer, who had the “everyone is weaker than me” attitude, and shook his head. The quality of Tank Topper Army’s members was generally low, as expected of the title of “The Gangster Corps”.
However, the staff member followed up his weak punch with a hard kick. It turned out his soft fist was just a misdirection to confuse the robot, and all his strength was used on his feet.
“Aha!”
King chuckled. Tanktop Boxer said that the staff member was an idiot, but reality proved that he was not stupid. Tanktop Boxer was the dumber one between the two.
“Humph, you only know some useless tricks. How can you hit the robot with this kind of attack? Are you kidding?” Tanktop Boxer glared at King angrily and still jeered at the staff.
Bang!
The muffled sound of a fist hitting an iron plate replied to Tanktop Boxer’s sneer.
King and the others watched in surprise. The fighting robot used its mechanical foot to block the staff member’s kick, but the staff member hit the robot’s chest with a punch.
Would this be considered a successful attack against the Bookworm programming?
Tanktop Boxer was dumbfounded as he watched the staff attack the fighting robot. His face was full of shame and anger. Sigh, he spoke too soon! Damn it!
He just said that the staff member could not hit the robot, but the staff member immediately punched the robot. Although it did not cause any damage, it hit the robot after all.
“Child Emperor, didn’t you say that the Bookworm can analyze the opponent’s fighting style? How do you explain this scene?” Tanktop Boxer angrily said, “Your new invention is too unreliable, isn’t it?”
Sneck frowned. “It is a new invention in its experimental stage. It is very normal for a loophole to appear.”
King nodded in agreement. Which innovation did not require a period of observation and correction? New technology is naturally riddled with many loopholes. The mistakes were completely expected.
“It’s not a loophole.” Child Emperor shook the lollipop a few times and smiled. “I forgot to introduce it just now. The program I installed into the fighting robot will analyze the data collected by ‘Bookworm’ to predict the opponent’s attack trajectory and then react accordingly. However, there are two special circumstances where it will turn a blind eye to the opponent’s attack and not go to defense at all.”
“Two special circumstances?”
Sneck and the others were stunned. They asked simultaneously, “What are the special situations?”
Child Emperor raised a finger and said, “The first special situation is when the opponent’s muscle density and vibration frequency are too high for Bookworm to properly analyze. In other words, the Bookworm might not work properly if the enemy is too strong. Of course, this is limited to extreme cases; only an opponent with an astonishing level of strength would cause Bookworm to fail.”
Sneck and the others asked curiously, “What level of strength can cause a malfunction to Bookworm?”
“I’m not sure.” Child Emperor shook his head, “According to my estimation, Bookworm should be able to analyze even Superalloy Darkshine and the other S-class Heroes. So, I don’t know how strong one must be to cause Bookworm to fail.”
He paused, glanced at the quiet King, and smiled. “Perhaps, if you are as strong as King, it might be possible to cause Bookworm to fail.”
“King? The strongest man in the world?”
Sneck and the others were stunned. The name “King” inspired awe and admiration in their heart.
“Then
 what about the second special situation?”
