Chapter 1160 The Next Xenoid Wave
-----
I was slightly enthusiastic about partaking in whatever karaoke meant, but when I truly learned what it was, I began to feel regret all over my body. Henriette was absolutely obsessed with signing, and she sang, and sang, and sang.
And they were perhaps the corniest, love songs I've ever heard across the entire universe, they made me want to puke and die… incredible, so this is the power of humanity!
"And I want all your love my crystal clear heaaaaaaaart~~~!"
She literally screamed at the microphone. The room was very small so we could hear her very clearly, yet she made sure to scream very loudly. I couldn't believe this ruthless, silent woman loved singing these stupid songs so much, it ruined her entire first impression of someone annoying that I still respected due to her resolve and cold heartedness.
"Hahh… Hahh… Woohh! I loved that! Did you guys loved that too?" Henriette wondered, gasping for air after singing so damn loudly. "Phew… ugh…"
She sat down exhausted drinking some cola before snacking on fried potatoes.
"It was amazing! Me next!" said Saphira through Eleanora's robot body.
"Wait you've already sang before, let me sing now!" Emilia said.
"Ugh, my head is spinning all over the place… can't we go now? It has been like over an hour," Hermes sighed.
"I agree with Hermes," I nodded. "We can't waste more time here, the Xenoids might arrive at any time."
"Aw come on man I want to sing too!" said Patrick. "Let me sing!"
"Nuh-huh, me first!" said Saphira, she was having a lot of fun. "I love that one song! Yeah that one!"
Henriette changed the song to another of some sort of animated show about virtual monsters that digitally evolved into larger creatures with the power of friendship and some kids.
"I want to be your blazing heart! Because you are my limit breaker! I want to be your besto friendo!"
As she started singing I smiled lightly. At least Saphira was having more fun than she had ever had before… Technology truly made young people the happiest.
"Let's unite our blazing hearts! Digital evolushon!"n/ô/vel/b//jn dot c//om
As she continued singing, I drank some cola as I looked at the hour.
Yeah it was now past the time the Xenoids usually appear… seriously, we should get going.
But Saphira…
"She's really having her fun, huh?" giggled Eleanora as she glanced at Saphira singing in her robot body.
"I can't believe a robot can sing this good, hohoh!" laughed Hendrick.
"I mean they're equipped with lots of voices… don't they?" wondered Patrick.
"LET'S UNITE OUR BLAZING HEARTS MY BESTO FRIENDOOOOO!"
As she continued singing, I noticed something.
The screen where the lyrics for the song were being shown suddenly turned red.
The song was interrumpted as well.
And then…
[WARNING! WARNING! WARNING! XENOID ATTACK! PLEASE ALL CIVILIANS MOVE TO THE DESIGNATED SAFE ZONES. ALL DESIGNED PILOTS MOVE TO THE MACHINE WARRIOR FACILITY TO DEFEND THE MOTHERSHIP!]
I never thought I would feel happy about an alien invasion right now, but I couldn't help but smile like a maniac.
"Eeeh?! Where's the song at!" complained Saphira.
"We've had enough of that for now, Saphira!" I said. "Let's go to port, we have to quickly join the battle! Henriette, we'll be taking your flying car."
"E-Eh?! Wait a second- Ugh… I'm too wasted to chase them," Henriette stayed behind and rested over the couch.
We ran out of the karaoke, jumped over her flying vehicle, I turned it on, and we flew at lightning speed outside of the city and then into the port.
There we saw all the pilots getting ready to depart, we arrived barely in time.
"Finally, something that is not cringe-inducing!" celebrated Hermes. "Let us fight some aliens! Oh my god I never thought I would feel happy about this."
"Hahaha!" laughed Patrick while climbing his Machine Warrior. "It wasn't that bad dude!"
"You're wrong it was horrible," said Hermes, as he jumped over his robot.
"You guys are too mean!" Emilia complained.
"Whatever let's get over with this," I said to them. "It's now the best time, Neutonium Mother Core. You said you could materialize things from the game, right?"
"Ah! You want me to do it now?! I lack the energy and resources!" she said. "At most… I can do it temporarily!"
"For how long?" I asked.
"Two… three hours at most…" she said.
"That's fine," I nodded. "Summon all the machines below my possession and their equipment fully equipped on them! Can you do it?"
"Yes but… won't it be weird in front of the other pilots?" she asked with a plain voice.
"It doesn't matter, I'll simply state it's part of my Ability," I smiled. "After all, I have crazier powers."
"Ahh, I see… Yes indeed your abilities go beyond logic itself," she agreed with my words. "It is as if you were not from this world at all. How curious… What is your true identity?"
"Not the time to ask that!" I said.
"My bad. I will get to it then," she said.
FLUOSH!
In that moment, a shockwave of electromagnetic surged from my Machine Warrior as I entered and quickly closed the door, synchronizing mentally with my machine instantly.
FLASH! FLASH! FLASH!
"W-What's going on over there?!"
"Woah, he's summoning more machines!"
"He can do this too?"
The other pilots were shocked as they saw the electromagnetic blue colored energies mixing together and then taking the form of three machines.
The machine I piloted fully equipped with machineguns, cannons, its indestructible shield, and spears. The super-fast crimson-colored and slender, needle-armed machine that Eleanora piloted, and the spider-like machine of Hendrick, now made even larger.
"Ready!" the Neutonium Mother Core said.
"Alright! Eleanora, Hendrick, Saphira, pilot those!" I said. "Let's go! As for the other pilots, follow my lead! We'll begin with Defensive Formation A!"
"OOOOHHHH!"
I had briefly taught these pilots several things in the time we spent together, making it easier to quickly set up how we would fight with many different formations.
As we all flew into outer space to confront the Xenoids, we were greeted with a surprise…
"W-Wha…?"
"We're surrounded already?!"
"How is this…!"
Hundreds of Xenoids were already flying around us and even part of the gigantic mothership.
However, many of them were strangely shaped too…
