Soon, Katy Brewster, who had just entered, came to the door and opened the hospital door for the woman, only to hear the woman anxiously say, "My cat has pneumonia and has been coughing non-stop..."
Katy Brewster said helplessly, "There's been some trouble at the clinic..."
The trouble she referred to was that she had just encountered John Connor and locked him in a dog cage.
Upon hearing Katy's words, the woman immediately said discontentedly, "But my cat is critically ill..."
Katy Brewster sighed helplessly and said, "It sounds like it swallowed a hairball."
As they spoke, the two walked into the pet hospital, and Yang Tao, who was sitting on the bench outside, looked at the two disappearing at the door and asked, "Sarah, how much do you think this kind of emergency treatment in a special situation will cost?"
"I don't know, but I know she'll definitely curse when she sees the bill."
Yang Tao smiled and then stood up. A silver-white convertible sports car stopped by the road. Seeing the beautiful woman in a red tight leather suit get out of it, he said to Sarah, "T-X is here... You and John should stay far away. This guy is stronger than the T-1000... Yes, she should be stronger."
The T-X might be stronger, but the sense of oppression she gave was far less than that of the T-1000.
The T-X got out of the sports car and walked towards the pet hospital with a graceful gait. Upon seeing Yang Tao and the others, she began to scan them with her electronic eyes.
However, the results she received made her processor somewhat unable to react.
The originally deceased Sarah Connor, and the young John Connor, who matched the data.
After her processor reacted, she immediately raised her hand, aimed her weapon at John Connor, and pulled the trigger.
Bang bang bang...
The T-X had no emotions, and naturally no mercy.
However, Yang Tao, as if teleporting, stood between young John and the T-X. The bullets flew in front of Yang Tao and were blocked by an invisible force.
'Reduced 7 energy points... So one shot reduces one point?'
Yang Tao was very satisfied with this, not expecting the quantum suit's consumption to be much less than he remembered.
Seeing this, the T-X tilted her head, as if puzzled by the situation before her. In her scan, Yang Tao was just an ordinary human.
However, prioritizing the termination of John was the main objective. She threw away the pistol, which was out of bullets, and quickly rushed towards John behind Yang Tao, her two slender arms transforming into blades.
She stabbed directly at Yang Tao's chest.
Just as he was about to dismantle the T-X, a strange thought arose in his mind.
'A robot... should it be considered a machine?'
He raised his hand and directly grabbed the T-X's neck. His speed and strength were clearly superior.
The T-X was slammed heavily onto the ground by Yang Tao.
Then, a Lever was placed by Yang Tao on her abdomen and gently pulled.
The T-X, which had been struggling fiercely, instantly lost all reaction, as if an ordinary person had fainted.
Yang Tao himself couldn't help but widen his eyes and say, "This works?!"
The Lever could emit Redstone signals, but he never expected that even a Terminator could be forcibly shut down.
Click.
Yang Tao activated the Lever, and the T-X's system restarted. However, it wasn't an instant completion like shutting down, but had a noticeable delay.
It was like a computer; to shut it down, you just pull the power plug, but to start it, humans just press a button, but the computer has much more to consider.
He pulled his hand out, and Yang Tao pulled the Lever again. The T-X instantly became still.
Seeing Yang Tao squatting beside the T-X, constantly fiddling with the strange Lever, Sarah couldn't help but walk closer out of curiosity.
After all, in the mental hospital, Yang Tao had also used a Lever to open a locked door, which left a very deep impression on her.
"What's wrong with it?"
"I shut it down. Just a little personal trick."
As Yang Tao spoke, he pulled the Lever again, and the T-X's eyes lit up once more.
Robots are really interesting.
When powered on, there's a health bar; when powered off, the health bar disappears.
He pulled the Lever down, the T-X powered off, its health bar disappeared, and Yang Tao directly put her into his backpack.
The roar of a car sounded on the road. A car drove directly towards Yang Tao, but after the T-X disappeared, the car braked sharply, emitting a screeching sound.
However, such a short distance made it impossible to stop. Sarah tightly hugged her son, John, but just as the car was about to hit them, Yang Tao stretched out his hand and flipped it forcefully, sending the car spinning through the air to crash onto the ground.
Bang...
The car crashed heavily onto the ground, and a figure kicked open the car door and stepped out.
[World Exploration Value 41.55%]
As expected of the Governor of this world, the Exploration Value provided is truly astonishing. If calculated at 50%, as long as Yang Tao goes into the room and meets the adult John Connor, he will be able to obtain a new mod again.
"Damn it! Two terminators?"
Sarah had an immediate stress reaction upon seeing the Governor.
"No, this one was sent to protect John Connor..."
Yang Tao explained, but the Governor ignored him. After scanning the surroundings and confirming that the T-X was not present, he carried his iconic shotgun and walked towards the pet hospital.
The noise outside was too loud, naturally attracting the attention of Katy Brewster inside the pet hospital.
She had just reached the door when she saw the expressionless Governor walk up to her and directly ask, "Katy Brewster?"
Katy, looking bewildered, replied, "Yes..."
"Come with me!"
With that, the T-800 pushed past Katy and walked directly into the hospital. Katy wanted to stop him, but seeing the clear wound, she wisely chose to keep quiet.
"You don't want this T-800 anymore?"
Sarah was a bit confused, as Yang Tao usually wanted any robot, so why had he suddenly become a mere spectator?
Yang Tao smiled and said, "No hurry, he'll come out naturally later. He'll take this world's John Connor to a nuclear shelter, where he'll become the leader of this world's resistance."
"Although I can't save this world, at least I can ensure this world's John Connor survives."
Sarah asked in confusion, "What do you mean? Save the world?"
"Skynet in this world is already unstoppable. Judgment Day will arrive tomorrow, and by then, the entire world will be baptized by nuclear bombs."
Sarah's expression became blank upon hearing this, looking at Yang Tao in disbelief.
"Why... why..."
"There's no why, this is fate."
In reality, nuclear missile launches are not networked; the activation method is always manual. Even without a nuclear baptism, no factory in the world could automatically produce suitable models of robots.
If a nuclear war truly began, without human assistance in the early stages, the remaining power would not even be enough for Skynet to continue operating.
After all, when nuclear war is launched, the priority target for destruction is all energy facilities.
Among them, power plants are of paramount importance.
