Chapter 20: Saving Tights
Looking at the two intruders who suddenly broke in, Dr. Kochin felt a dangerous aura.
But he thought that was impossible. How could he be in danger with three androids by his side?
These three androids are the best work of Dr. Wheelo's technology. One of them can take out an entire tank division!
Turning to look at Link, Dr. Kochin demanded,
"Who are you two? You have no business here. Get out now!"
Link grinned calmly, a smile on his face.
Beside him, Hanasia looked down and said,
"How dare you speak to His Majesty Link like that, you trash with a power level of only 10!"
"Trash? How dare you call me trash? Come on, teach this fool a lesson!" Dr. Kochin shouted, striking his cane on the ground as he ordered the three androids.
Immediately, the three android warriors surrounded Link and Hanasia.
Hanasia asked, "Your Majesty, what are these? They look like fighters."
Link, with a small smile, replied, "They must be weapons made to look like fighters."
Hanasia laughed and added, "A being with a power of less than 200 is called a weapon?"
Seeing that they showed no fear, Dr. Kochin felt a growing sense of danger and quickly ordered, "Why are you just standing there? Do something!"
The three android warriors leaped toward Hanasia. At that moment, Hanasia's eyes widened as she pointed her fingers at the attackers.
Whoosh! Three bursts of energy shot out, turning the three android warriors into a pile of minced junk.
"Wha… what?" Dr. Kochin was shocked. What had that woman just done? How did three strong android warriors get killed so easily?
Cold sweat ran down his forehead. His intuition was right; the two strangers before him were very dangerous!
"Alright, any last words?" Hanasia scoffed as she walked towards Dr. Kochin, who looked very scared.
"Don't come any closer!" Dr. Kochin yelled, throwing aside his crutch as his left hand turned into a Gatling gun.
Dr. Kochin was no ordinary man; to live longer, he had turned himself into a cyborg.
Bang, bang, bang! A stream of bullets shot from the Gatling gun and hit Hanasia.
Facing the hail of bullets, Hanasia remained unfazed. She simply sneered and raised her right hand toward Dr. Kochin, sending a blast of light from her palm.
Dr. Brief suddenly shouted, "Wait!" Although he didn't understand what she was doing, he thought Dr. Kochin was about to get killed!
It was fine if Dr. Kochin died, but his daughter was still in Dr. Wheelo's hands!
Yet Hanasia ignored Dr. Brief completely. In the next moment, a strong shockwave smashed Dr. Kochin.
Mrs. Brief and kid Bulma screamed in fear, while Dr. Brief froze and cried out, "No!"
"Hello, Dr. Brief, my name is Link. . I'm here to talk about working together with you."
Dr. Brief said angrily, "Working together? Do you know what you just did? That man just kidnapped my eldest daughter! If you kill him, what will become of her?"
"How dare you speak to His Majesty like that!" Hanasia suddenly appeared in front of Dr. Brief and was about to punch him.
Dr. Brief immediately closed his eyes in fear.
"Wait a minute," Link said, stopping her.
"Dr. Brief, there's no need to be scared or angry. I might know where your daughter is."
Dr. Brief's eyes widened. "You do?"
Link replied, "Yes. That man earlier should be one of Dr. Wheelo's companions. I remember his base is in a place called Tsurumai-Tsuburi Mountains."
"Tsurumai-Tsuburi Mountains?" Dr. Brief was surprised.
"Dad! Tsurumai-Tsuburi Mountains is where Dr. Wheelo's old research institute was!" a child's voice said.
Link and Dr. Brief turned around and saw that the speaker was Bulma, a little girl.
Seeing Link looking her way, Bulma quickly hid behind Mrs. Brief and said softly, "I read about this in a book."
"Dr. Brief, do you know where Tsurumai-Tsuburi Mountains is?"
"It's somewhere in the northwest, more than 2,000 kilometers away…" Dr. Brief replied, then asked, "Why do you ask?"
"I'll go get your daughter back. Hanasia, you stay here and protect Dr. Brief and the others."
With that, Link teleported away.
Seeing him vanish so suddenly, Dr. Brief's family was in shock. "He… he disappeared?"
Meanwhile, far away at Tsurumai-Tsuburi Mountains, a huge fortress-like structure stood. The fortress is a massive building with some sections which resembled like a bigger version of Dr. Wheelo's mechanical body.
A short-haired girl, who looked a bit like Bulma but had golden hair like Mrs. Brief and seemed about twenty, was shouting curses at someone.
Although her hands and feet were chained, she kept thrashing violently.
"You brain monster! Pervert! Frankenstein! Let me go now! One of my friends is a galactic patrolman. If you don't free me, I'll have him lock you up in a galactic prison!"
Not far from this angry beauty, a brain in a container made a low sound.
"Dr. Kochin! Dr. Kochin! Answer quickly! What are you doing?"
This brain belonged to none other than Dr. Wheelo, the mastermind behind it all. To live longer, Dr. Kochin had taken Wheelo's brain and put it into a robot body.
Just as Dr. Wheelo kept calling for the missing Dr. Kochin, a figure suddenly appeared next to the blonde girl.
"Um?"
The beautiful girl, who had been cursing, stopped and looked at Link, who had appeared with a confused look.
"I'm sorry, how did you get here?"
Link looked at the girl and asked, "Are you Tights, Dr. Brief's daughter?"
"Um," she replied. Seeing her nod, Link moved his fingers slightly towards the chains. In the next moment, the chains on Tights hands and feet broke.
"I'm a friend of your father. I'm here to save you. Hold me," Link said as he stretched out his hand toward Tights.
"Oh my God! How did you do that?" Tights gasped, staring at the broken chains.Then, excitedly, she grabbed Link.
"Hey! Are you some kind of fighter? That thing on your back— isn't that a tail, right? Tell me now!"
Just as Link was about to answer, Dr. Wheelo, in the distance, finally spotted the sudden intruder.
"Boy, who are you? How did you break into this place?"
…..
Here is some more background information.
Dr. Wheelo's goal is to rule the world using a modified human army via his science. However, Dr. Kochin (his assistant), and his entire laboratory become encased by ice. His physical body died of frostbite, but Kochin is able to save his brain and encase him in a robotic shell.
