Chapter 271 Successful Capture

Song Bangren, a researcher, also noticed something strange.

It showed no signs of life, but it was energetic and stronger than an adult man.

Song Bangren's scientific mind raced, analyzing the strange robots during lulls in the battle. He gathered more data through the Fire Armor's advanced sensory system, attempting to unravel the mystery.

"Director, these robots behave in a very regular pattern, almost like a pre-programmed routine," he reported while dodging a robot's charge. "While their movements are coordinated, they lack adaptability and tactical flexibility. What's even stranger is that although they exhibit astonishing strength, their structural strength is unusually fragile."

Wang Jianjun frowned in the command center: "Scan one of them in detail and try to analyze its internal structure."

Song Bangren activated the Fire Armor's deep scanning mode, targeting a robot that had not yet attacked. A complex data stream immediately appeared on the holographic interface, but the results were perplexing.

"The scan results show... the interior is almost empty!" Song Bangren reported in surprise. "With our current technology, we are unable to analyze the energy core."

Wang Jianjun frowned slightly and said, "Then take him back to the base!"

"Understood, Director!" Song Bangren immediately adjusted the tactics, switching from attack mode to capture mode.

He turned the knob on the fire armor, and the right arm of the fire armor quickly deformed, the originally smooth armor plates separated and reassembled to form a complex capture device.

This is the weapon system "Fire Lock" personally designed by Song Bangren, a dual capture system that combines an energy network and a physical locking mechanism.

"Fire Lock ready, aim at target!" Song Bangren reported, while carefully adjusting his position to find the best capture angle.

He leaped above the target robot, and the Fire Armor's sensors quickly calculated the optimal launch trajectory.

Song Bangren held his breath, waiting for the right moment.

"emission!"

The fiery lock erupted from the right arm of the fire armor, and the system split into two parts: a net made of red energy covered the robot's upper body, while several physical restraint cables wrapped around its limbs and tightened rapidly. The entire process took less than a second.

"Capture successful!" Song Bangren announced, and the fire armor quickly landed next to the trapped robot.

However, unexpectedly, the captured robot did not struggle or resist at all.

It simply stood there quietly, its seven orange glowing orbs still twinkling steadily, as if completely unconcerned about its trapped state.

“Strange behavior pattern…” Song Bangren muttered to himself, while simultaneously strengthening the energy network as a precaution.

Inside the lab, technicians intently monitored the transmitted data: "No emergency systems were detected activated inside the robot, nor was there any sign of a self-destruct mechanism. It seems... it wasn't programmed to handle capture?"

“This doesn’t make sense,” Wang Jianjun frowned. “Such advanced technology, yet there’s no basic anti-capture protocol?”

Just then, Song Bangren noticed an anomaly—the blue device on the robot's chest began to flash slowly, and the frequency gradually increased.

"Energy fluctuation detected!" he reported alertly. "The chest device is activating some function!"

The laboratory's alarm system immediately sounded: "Unknown energy signature is forming! Immediate evacuation to a safe distance is recommended!"

Without hesitation, Song Bangren activated the fire armor's emergency propulsion system, causing it to rapidly retreat.

Almost at the same instant, the captured robot suddenly began to...melt? Its metallic shell flowed like liquid, seeping out from the gaps in the energy network and restraint cables.

"It's changing the physical state!" Song Bangren exclaimed in surprise. "It's some kind of controllable phase transition technology!"

Wang Jianjun immediately ordered: "Adjust the frequency of the energy network and try to stop the phase transition process!"

Song Bangren acted swiftly, and the energy generator output of the fire armor changed, the color of the energy net changed from red to dark orange, and the vibration frequency increased significantly.

This change did have an effect—the robot's melting process slowed down, but did not stop completely.

"It's resisting our control!" the technicians reported. "Some strange energy wave has been detected emanating from the reconnaissance ship in the sky, seemingly remotely controlling this unit!"

Song Bangren looked up at the reconnaissance ship, then a sudden thought struck him: "If they are remotely controlled, then..."

He didn't finish speaking, but quickly adjusted the weapon system of the fire armor and aimed it at the reconnaissance ship in the sky.

The right arm transforms into an energy cannon mode, rapidly recharging.

"Fireballs, fire!"

A series of high-energy beams shot out from the right arm of the fire armor, each beam precisely hitting different parts of the reconnaissance ship, not to cause fatal damage, but to interfere with its control signals.

The effect was immediate—the captured robot suddenly stopped melting, and all the luminous objects went out at the same time.

His entire body stood stiffly in place, as if he had suddenly lost all motivation.

"Control signal interrupted!" Song Bangren reported excitedly. "The target has lost its ability to move!"

Wang Jianjun immediately seized the opportunity: "Quickly bring the samples back to base! At the same time, prepare defensive measures, as the reconnaissance ship may react."

Song Bangren wasted no time. He activated the auxiliary propulsion system of the fire armor and simultaneously activated the additional mechanical arm on the armor.

These auxiliary arms firmly gripped the incapacitated robot, preparing to bring it back to base.
