Chapter 88: Jerry and the Sheer Mashu
Chapter 88: Jerry and the Sheer Mashu
Seeing Bai Song's actions, Jerry couldn't help but take off his hat and scratch his head with his right hand. He was wondering why Bai Song asked for a weapon, received it, and then handed it back. Since Jerry didn't quite understand Bai Song's intention, a question mark appeared above his head that matched his fur color, as if a horn had sprouted from his head.
Noticing the interaction between Bai Song and Jerry, Mashu took a half step back while holding her shield and whispered to Gudako's ear, "Senpai, that mouse..."
This mouse had appeared when they attacked "Schrodinger" and "Schrodinger's Cat" together with Arash during the day. However, at that time, the mouse didn't seem to have made any moves, at least they didn't see it in action. But "Schrodinger" brought it to battle, and even requested a weapon from the mouse before the fight, so its strength should not be underestimated.
Although it was highly likely that it couldn't compare to the cat and the dog, it was very likely to possess combat capabilities on the level of a Servant.
"I know," Gudako nodded seriously. She had naturally noticed the mouse dressed like an Italian Mafia member. She was even surprised that despite being just a mouse, it had quite good taste in clothing. Clearly, this mouse had a sense of style.
But she only thought about it in her mind. If Mashu heard her thoughts, she would probably roll her eyes at her and say something like, "Facing such a formidable enemy, and you're thinking about these things, senpai, what are you doing?"
Just thinking about it made Gudako feel a bit uneasy.
"Do we strike first... senpai?" Mashu quietly asked, seeing Bai Song and Jerry leisurely messing around with something.

Upon hearing this, Gudako reproves her. "I don't think so."
Come on, if they launched a surprise attack now, they would probably end up being caught off guard. Mashu, Merlin, and Chen Gong were a different story, but she was still young and didn't want to experience being turned into fireworks again.
If they were going to make a blunder, let the three Servants do it.
She was eagerly looking forward to her own Servants going for the kill. That way, when all her teammates had sacrificed themselves, she could change her state.
Teammates... they only affected her sword speed!
"Understood, Master," Mashu said after hearing Gudako's words. She focused her attention on Bai Song and Jerry's actions, standing in front of Gudako.
On the other side, Bai Song was speechless as he looked at Jerry's confused expression. He reached out with his right hand and pressed the question mark that had popped up on Jerry's head back into his brain. He reiterated, "I'm talking about a weapon, a weapon."
As Jerry listened to Bai Song's words, instead of resolving his confusion, he became even more perplexed. Didn't Bai Song receive the weapon, a gun? He was about to confront Bai Song about it when suddenly, a brown exclamation mark popped up on his head. However, that wasn't important. What mattered was that Jerry quickly realized that Bai Song's eyesight might be failing him.
With that thought in mind, Jerry leaped up and landed on Bai Song's hand, snatching the toy gun that only he, Jerry, could handle properly. He stood on his tiptoes, holding the gun high in an attempt to make Bai Song see it.
"I see it... I mean, are you sure this is a weapon?" Bai Song's mouth twitched slightly as he observed Jerry's actions. He didn't even know where to begin with his criticism. Could he really use such a tiny gun? And the barrel is red plastic, right? It must be a typical American toy gun with a modified red barrel, according to American laws.
Jerry nodded and glanced at the gun he held in his hands, contemplating what else could be considered a weapon if this didn't count.
"Is that so? I don't believe it unless you show me." Bai Song said as he extended his left hand towards Gudako and the others. Jerry, standing on his left hand, almost lost his balance but quickly regained it.
Jerry turned his head towards Bai Song, pointed at himself, and then pointed at the gigantic humans across from them. Bai Song nodded and reached out his right hand, twisting Jerry's head towards Gudako's direction.
Feeling forced by Bai Song to take action, Jerry couldn't help but swallow hard. Although it was highly unlikely for him to defeat the three gigantic enemies, he had no choice but to face them head-on.
Without further ado, Jerry stood slightly to the left, gripping the gun with his right hand. He closed his left eye and extended his right arm, aiming at Mashu. His index finger rested on the trigger.
"Here it comes!" Seeing Jerry's actions, Mashu immediately raised her shield, completely covering herself and Gudako behind it. After the Spike's bite incident, Mashu didn't dare to underestimate any small animal by Schrodinger's side.
With his aim set, Jerry decisively pulled the trigger.
"Snap!"
As Jerry pulled the trigger, the handgun in his hand made a crisp sound, and then... nothing happened. After waiting quietly behind the shield for a while, there was no impact felt at all. It was just like Tom's shot that hit the shield during the daytime.
So, Mashu cautiously peeked her head out from behind the shield and asked, "Is it over?" She saw Jerry still holding the gun, with one eye closed, aiming.
"Click." Suddenly, a mechanical door-like contraption above the barrel opened outward. At the same time, a spring-supported hammer emerged from it, slightly larger than the gun itself. As it came out, the hammer bounced and, due to gravity, it didn't stand straight but hung forward and upward.
But it didn't end there. Another door opened on top of the hammer, and an even larger hammer, connected by a spring, emerged from it. Then, yet another door opened, and an even larger hammer appeared. This process continued, with each subsequent hammer being larger than the previous one and getting closer to Gudako and the others.
After several iterations, a gigantic hammer, the size of two adults, appeared above Mashu's head. It even had the words "100t" written on it. Seeing this scene, Mashu was frightened and sweat began pouring down her face, flowing so fast that it was difficult to see with the naked eye.
However, before Mashu could raise her shield, the massive hammer came crashing down onto her head.
"Boom!!!!!!!!"
