Dolittle considered Sheyan's inquiry.
"After us humans are cut with knives, why do our wounds heal by themselves instead of sinking in? That's because the thickness of our body is stored in the memory of the DNA in our cells. Skynet designed the liquid metal according to this principle; in fact, Skynet went one step further. By imprinting different information into the metal cells that make up the liquid metal, the T-1000 can change into various forms!"
"So even if the T-1000 is destroyed, as long as the metal cells of the liquid metal still exist, the T-1000 can be reformed according to the information Skynet had imprinted into the cells. The problem you see on the T-1000's shoulder now is not something trifle. Its a sign that the imprints in the metal cells on the shoulder position of the T-1000 have been erased!"
"According to my analysis, the most likely cause of such a horrible damage is that the T-1000 was damaged during the process of the space-time group transmission. The T-1000's biggest shortcoming is that once it sustained this kind of serious damage, it cannot be repaired by replacing its body parts, like other ordinary Terminators. It can only be sent back to the factory for maintenance -- but that's obviously not possible for this T-1000."
"I see," understanding dawned on Sheyan. "Any further advice for the current situation?"
Excitement started creeping into Dolittle's voice as he replied. "I have no further advice, but if you thought the plan had a 30% chance of success before, it should be 50% now."
Sheyan narrowed his eyes and smiled as he said, "No. It should be 70%."

With Sheyan speeding away in front and the T-1000 in pursuit, they were now at least twenty kilometers away from the port area. What Sheyan and the others were about to do was not meant for the public's eyes, so the cars were heading to a secluded place.
Soon after, the two cars arrived at an industrial area that was seemingly abandoned. The desolation of the place could be seen from the weeds that had begun to grow stubbornly towards the cement tar pavement. There were few factories still in operation here, and only some old security guards were left in the area.
Sheyan's car drifted along the road, leaving long black trails on it, and quickly drove into the compound of a factory.
The T-1000 followed closely behind in its car which had several newly-made dents on it. The mood of this killing machine from the future was certainly not good, and it had taken its anger out on the poor car.
Sheyan and the others with him had left the vehicle and stood waiting on the second floor of the abandoned factory. They saw the T-1000 drove fiercely towards the old factory, smiling as they watched the big fish swim into the net.
Mogensha was whistling casually, a detonator in his left hand. With a gentle push of his thumb, the T-1000's car exploded!
A fierce fire instantly covered the entire car. The car immediately went out of control and crashed into the adjacent building. The car engine started burning as well. A thick black smoke rose, hovering in the sky like a dragon. The faint smell of gasoline in the air became more intense.
In the middle of the bonfire, a figure could be clearly seen climbing out of the driver's seat. It walked step by step away from the wreckage, a silvery-white glow covering its body. Its facial features gradually became clearer. The face was cold.
Sheyan sneaked a glance at the energy reading. Although the impact just now was so powerful that it seemed like it could instantly turn a fat man into ashes, he found that it had only consumed about 0.5% of the T-1000's energy reserves. It appeared that this kind of strong impact was not a big deal for the T-1000 at all; only ordinary Terminators would be injured from that due to the damage to their artificial skin.
Reef jumped down and brazenly blocked the path of the T-1000 that had just out walked out of the fire, his gaze full of provocation and hostility. He was brimming with fighting spirit at the moment. His steel claws had the powerful ability to ignore defense, and he had a high-quality dark gold shield. The claw-shield combination was perfect, giving him a very strong advantage in close combat fights.
Even Sheyan did not have absolute confidence that he could defeat Reef in a one-on-one fight.
But the confrontation with the T-1000 this time left a feeling of helplessness in Reef.
Sure, the steel claws were strong, but it only meant that they would leave a deeper wound on the T-1000's body than others. This was not a big deal at all for the T-1000. It only meant that the T-1000 would take a fraction of a second longer to recover.
Although Reef's dark gold shield was as sturdy as an iron wall, its area of protection was too small in relation to the T-1000 whose whole body could change into weapons. Therefore, it did not take too long for Reef to become badly beaten and covered in injuries.
Fortunately, Reef's "Courage" ability showed its worth. He used it on a distant ally to instantly get away from the monstrous T-1000. The T-1000 was ready to pursue him, but Mr. Darkness once again performed his black magic to stop the Terminator. He summoned five terrifying female ghosts that wrapped themselves around the T-1000's body, greatly reducing its speed and hindering its pursuit.
The vacant position Reef left behind was naturally filled by Sheyan. Next, the battle fell back into a familiar rhythm. Sheyan used his strength advantage to constantly push the T-1000 back whenever he landed a strike. This was the best way to play to his advantages.
The energy reserves of T-1000 was declining rapidly in this fierce battle. After all, it was not facing ordinary human beings, but really strong contestants instead.
Time went by quickly. Under normal circumstances, when the energy reserves of the T-1000 dropped to 20%, a warning program would be triggered and the T-1000 would activate the 'Overload' ability to immediately run away.
Unfortunately, the high-priority command that Skynet's program had issued just now had come back to bite it. Due to the suspicion that the mission objective, Ms. Adess, was here, and the fact that the suspect's outer appearance was confirmed to share a high degree of similarity with Ms. Adess, the operation this time was upgraded to second-level priority! No interruption to the operation was allowed unless a situation that may endanger the survival of the Terminator occurred.
The measures that Sheyan, Reef and Mr. Darkness took to boil the frog in warm water were apparently effective. No matter how the T-1000's CPU judged, it simply could not see how the enemies in front of it could pose a fatal threat to the Terminator based on their actions so far. Thus, Skynet's command once again suppressed the T-1000's instinct and kept it here.
The energy reserves of the T-1000 continued to decline. Sheyan definitely did not expect the Terminator to be so cooperative. Sheyan was constantly remaining on high alert to guard against the T-1000 suddenly activating 'Overload' to run away.
That was because Sheyan's 'Strength of the Sky' passive ability could dispel the beneficial buff on the enemy, and it could perfectly counteract the abnormally powerful ability that was 'Overload'!
(TL note: Strength of the Sky: Perform a Strength check for every successful hit on the enemy. If you pass the Strength check, there is a 25% chance to interrupt a random beneficial effect on the target (including, but not limited to, attribute buffs, protective layers, and aura effects). Lasts for 30 seconds. This ability can be repeatedly triggered, but there will only be one interrupted effect at any one time (unable to stack). This ability has domain precedence.])
But the T-1000's instincts were constantly being suppressed by the command laid down by Skynet. In this way, under Sheyan's eyes that were full of anticipation, Reef's claws tore off the arm of the T-1000 with a ferocious swing. Although the severed arm was immediately stepped on by the T-1000 and absorbed back into its leg, but the strike had caused its energy reserves to fall below 15%! The device made by Dolittle was showing the number 14.99%!!
In a more fashionable term, the 0.01% energy drop was the straw that broke the camel's back.
They finally broke through the 15% threshold! At the same time, some obvious changes were occuring to the T-1000's appearance. It gave off a "withering" feel, like a leaf that was exposed to the scorching sun for three days. Although it was still green, its vitality had obviously been greatly weakened.
It was also like a silver ornament that had been exposed to the air for too long. The surface was covered in a layer of grey!
Tears almost fell from Sheyan's eyes at this moment. It seemed that Dolittle had told the truth -- when the energy reserves of the T-1000 fell below 15%, a series of flaws would appear in the sub-cellular protective shield all over its body.
"Now!" Sheyan abruptly activated 'Hornrage' and dashed towards the T-1000. Then, he pulled out '+7 West' and chopped down on the T-1000's shoulder. Amidst the burst of sparks, the saber cut at least 5 centimeters deep into the Terminator's body. Of course, the T-1000 had also mercilessly struck back at Sheyan. It's right arm changed into a dagger and stabbed into Sheyan's abdomen!
Please report us if you find any errors so we can fix it asap!
Dolittle considered Sheyan's inquiry.
"After us humans are cut with knives, why do our wounds heal by themselves instead of sinking in? That's because the thickness of our body is stored in the memory of the DNA in our cells.
