Ronnie's reaction awakened the rest of the Assault Team from their stupor. They couldn't believe they what they were seeing, the juvenile faced man took out Johnny one on one without any MechSuit. And the worst was that he managed to incapacitate one of New Casablanca's strongest police officer in a single move.
"You call that a shoulder throw?" Rose's soft voice resounded in disbelief; her index finger was pointing in the direction of Fell's direction.
"Hahahaha, it looked more like a child playing with his teddy bear!" Dorothy's childish giggle resounded, "Do it again Brother!"
A wry smile appeared on Fell's face as he heard Dorothy's infantile request, he approached Johnny and swiftly checked the fiery man's state.
The golden MechSuit shouldered most of the impact's strength; Johnny only fell unconscious due to a slight brain concussion. He exhaled a stress-relieving sigh as he came to the realization that he almost f*cked up.
Fell turned around in the direction of the Assault Team's Chief, a bashful expression drawn on his face.
"I really didn't mean for that…" he began babbling, moving his hands up and down as he tried explaining himself.
Walter softly sighed, his experienced eyes instantly understood the situation. Johnny had the bad luck to encounter a cultivator. That would explain the black-haired man's extraordinary might.
"Do you really come from the Slums?" He asked while trying to control his tone. Being the chief of New Casablanca's Assault Team made him see a lot in his life, today's experience wasn't enough to chock him still.
Fell nodded in the chief's direction. His answer sent the chief's heart in turmoil, Walter eyes softly shined under his helmet.
"What a hidden gem." Walter thought in his mind while leaving his hideout.
Fell heard the police officer's loud steps approach him. his MechSuit clattered as he strode forward, the metallic part that composed the armor were brushing against each other, producing an annoying rattling sound every time he moved his body.
He soon saw a spotless grey suit that calmly marched in his direction. Fell felt that the middle-aged man didn't have any evil intention, he quietly watched the armored frame step in his direction.
As he arrived in front of the young man, he stopped in his track and looked deeply in his eyes. He was even more sure of his past assessment.
The distance between the two men was approximatively two steps, Walter was completely basking in Fell's aura. He could feel that the man before him wasn't cut from the same rock than the rest of the Slums.
His deep amber eyes left him completely shaken. Those aren't the eyes of a Slums native, he thought before checking Johnny's condition.
"Don't worry, he's the one to blame, I gave him an order and he disrespected it." He said after examining his subordinate.
Fell was surprised as he didn't expect the police officer to brush the matter so quickly. He threw the several comeback quotes he prepared in the back of his head, and innocently asked in a soft voice.
"What is this armor? Its weight is incredible, how do you guys even move inside them?" He exclaimed, his eyes were wide open as if he didn't trample a MechSuit pilot.
"What do you mean incredible weight?" the chief thought in his mind, "Even if we don't take Johnny's weight into account, you literally lifted a ton and half." This was what the assault team leader Walter wanted to respond.
"Those are MechSuit, they are made with the same technology as the Gundroid and Bladroid. We use the Assist AI to control it as if it was our own body. As you might have noticed, no normal human could walk while wearing more than one ton of armor on their shoulders." He explained.
"Gundroid…?" Fell asked, surprised by the term.
"Yeah, you met one in the Underground facility. Right?" he asked while looking deeply in Fell's eyes.
"Ah! Yeah, I wrecked one." He instantly responded, seeing the chief's lack of reaction. His face lit up and a slight red hue appeared on it.
"I'm really sorry by the way; it kinda treated me as an intruder." He tried explaining himself; his bashfulness kicked in as he was ashamed by his actions.
"That was because you were an Intruder…" Ronnie explained after landing close to them, his purple MechSuit shined under the soft light from the sun.
A self-deprecating smile appeared on his face as he heard Ronnie's logical explanation, his eyes lit up as he saw Ronnie's MechSuit. Compared to the other two models, this purple suit was thinner and offered much more mobility and joints movement.
"Stop looking at him like that big brother; he'll think you'll also swat him on the floor." Dorothy was wearing a green MechSuit that was half the height the other.
Behind her was Rose, armored in a cyan colored MechSuit. Her steps thundered loudly on the floor, and Fell could feel the earth vibrate as she approached their position.
What surprised him was that he expected her MechSuit to be as thin as Ronnie's. But contrary to his expectation, her MechSuit had the biggest frame of them all. Its height exceeded Johnny's MechSuit by more than a head, and her weight was probably much more ridiculous.
Fell was standing in the middle of the Armored Assault Team; his eyes darted everywhere as he couldn't stop himself from looking at the shining MechSuit.
His heart started beating in his chest as he began imagining himself inside one, he would probably be as dashing as them.
"You can test one in the Police Station if you want." Blurted Walter. The Assault Team leader noticed Fell's attraction for MechSuit, "it wouldn't hurt to let him test it" he thought after his proposal.
Little did he know that Fell wasn't particularly attracted to MechSuit. In fact, the young native of the slums was fond of anything that shined, his love for swords was born when he saw Soldier's Fortune's edge gleam for the first time.
