For something over forty metres tall, the mega-robot was rather... simple. It didn"t wear a costume, had no frills and was overall just not stylish at all. The robot was shaped like a minotaur with two horns protruding from its head and it wielded a gigantic axe. It had glowing eyes and its body was made out of metals that were painted with shades of brown and green.
"A robot for a monster!! Go Mr Derpy, I CHOOSE YOU!" Jin took out his phone and out came the tremendously large monster that even rivalled the Mega Robot Minotaur in size.
"I, Mechataur, will defeat this monstrosity! For Justice!" the mega robot spoke as its eyes turned from yellow to red as if it was displaying its anger. "I am the guardian of this fortress and I will not let you sully this sacred fortress!" Mechataur shouted and pointed at Mr Derpy to come forth and fight it.
However, Mr Derpy stared at it for a moment before laughing. "Boss, you want a flashy show or an instant kill?"
"You cannot do both at the same time?" Jin asked but Mr Derpy just scoffed in reply. "You think you are worthy of a flashy and ins-" Before Mr Derpy could finish his talking, Mechataur punched at Mr Derpy, which sent him flying into a nearby cavern wall. The impact caused the entire fortress to shake momentarily and Mr Derpy ended up slightly stunned.
Mechataur did not give Mr Derpy any chance to recover as it immediately sent its axe flying towards Mr Derpy. The axe struck true and hit Mr Derpy in his chest. The Mechataur then forcibly opened its chest plates to reveal an internal cannon that looked like it was charging up a beam to attack the immobilised Mr Derpy.
"Urgh, can I trust Mr Derpy to finish this battle?" Jin felt like he should do something to a.s.sist the Lord Dagen Replica since it looked like he was going to lose the battle. However, no matter how he looked at it, the only person that could destroy this mega robot was Peppers.
He really wanted to keep Peppers for the final battle against the boss if possible but if Mr Derpy could not keep this situation under control, it would bite him in the back.
"d.a.m.n it, advancing in this dungeon is more important!" Jin summoned Peppers and she twirled her staff as she appeared out of Jin"s phone. To his surprise, Peppers was not attacking at all even though she was summoned out.
"Eh Peppers?" Jin called out to Peppers, only to see that she was in a trance for some reason.
"IT IS A ROBOT!!!! Master! It is a robot!!!" Peppers squealed as she kept tugging at the side of Jin"s s.h.i.+rt.
"Are you not going to attack it?" Jin asked as he started to drip cold sweat. What was with this sudden fascination with a robot?
"Can I keep it as a pet? Mr Derpy is too useless, I prefer a robot! Look! It"s going to shoot a blast of wildfire at Derpy!" Peppers eyes were sparkling brighter than a diamond, her mouth was wide open, so much so that she was unable to contain her drool and Jin wanted to faint at this sudden turn of events.
"Then destroy it!!! So we can captur-" "BOOOOOOOM!" The Mechataur had finished charging its attacks and fired at the pinned down Derpy.
"Mr Derpy!" Jin shouted with worry though Peppers remained dazzled and wow-ed by the Mechataur. The mega robot also laughed with a booming voice. "Justice is served best served as a fillet!"
Suddenly, from within the smokes of the explosion, a streaming jet of water burst out and pierced through the chest of the Mechataur. "What?!" The Mechataur was shocked as it started to run diagnostics to see if any vital parts were damaged by the attack.
As Mechataur was a.n.a.lysing the damage, the metal and concrete around the bridge suddenly morphed and surrounded the Mechataur by wrapping around its legs, arms and even part of its torso.
The metal bars of the bridge even turned flexible. The bars crept into the hole in the Mechataur"s chest, subsequently mending it.
"Master! It even has healing abilities! I thought Derpy was able to control the metal and concrete, but it turns out that it really was just a dumb fish." Peppers seemed to be rooting for the enemy"s robot more than Mr Derpy but Jin was relieved to see that the Lord Dagen Replica was still alive and kicking.
"Mr Derpy, Instant kill it. Do not make me worry."
"Hahahaha! I made you worry?! I am the almighty Derp- I mean, I am the Almighty Shadow Dagen! You never had to or will ever have to worry about me!" Derpy zoomed out of the cavern walls and headb.u.t.ted the Mechataur, causing it to fall to the ground in the middle of its healing process.
Derpy then magically floated upwards and started to fly around the Mechataur. As he swirled around the fallen Mechataur, it was obvious that water particles and magic was beginning revolving around him and within seconds, Derpy flew upwards and the ground magically burst with a gush of water, very similar to a geyser.
The geyser of hot steam and water pierced through the Mechataur once more, causing an even larger hole to appear on the Mechataur but Mr Derpy was not done this time and would not allow it to heal again. His eyes stared at Mechataur"s blinking red ones before he gathered more water particles. From within the water particles, Deep Ones were being summoned and within seconds, it was raining monsters.
"Die for me, filial ones." Mr Derpy commanded the Deep Ones to launch a suicide attack and they swooped towards the partially broken robot. Unlike the zombies, who would probably have splattered into pancakes once they reached the ground, the Deep Ones had simple tridents and spears that damaged the Mechataur due to the momentum of the fall.
Not only that, the Deep Ones also exploded and their blood and flesh corroded the metal parts of the Mechataur. When the Deep Ones exploded, both Jin and Peppers had horrified expressions on their, faces which made Mr Derpy laughed.
"Did you see the extent of my powers? Aren"t they magnificent! Aren"t they flashy enough, my puny master?" Derpy smirked with arrogance.
"MY ROBOT!!!!!!!" Peppers cried out loud as dramatically as she could.
"ALL MY MONEY DOWN THE DRAIN!" Jin cried too and hugged Peppers as he remembered that the fallen monsters in the Dungeon World needed to be replaced by using Souls and Souls, which in turn required money. Seeing how the Deep Ones just went ahead and killed themselves because Mr Derpy wanted to show off with a flashy trick made him incredibly sad. " I said instant kill, didn"t I?" Jin"s heart was broken to see yet another Deep one fell and exploded.
"Ehhh… Didn"t you initially said you wanted a flashy instant kill…?" Derpy scratched its head at his master"s mourning. Still, the deed was done and the Mechataur had died(been captured) in a fairly brutal fas.h.i.+on... with spears stuck in him and many holes created by the corrosion of its metallic skin.
