After a long session of storytelling from Makori, everyone became silent. The surrounding sound felt so tense and ominous making the scenery unpleasant. But then the silence broke when Gerald said, "I still disbelieve you are the one who created this giant mess. I just hope you can turn it around. You know damn well, everyone here on this island hates this."
"Hold on!" Hailey screamed. "The reason you made this in the first place was that you wanted to create robots of your parents?"
Makori answered, "I'm sorry. I've just realized how dumb I was back then. My feelings got the best of me and drove me to this path. But trust me, I will turn the table and bring peace to this island. I won't let everyone down."
Hailey shacked her head while also putting her hand on her forehead and said, "You moron. How could you be such a pathetic bitch?"
Helen beside her pulled her clothes and said, "Mom!" Hailey saw her daughter with an angry face while facing her.
Hailey felt guilty and patted Helen's head, then said, "Sorry honey. Don't be looking like that, you won't look pretty."
Makori wanted to continue so he interrupted the moment and said, "Enough of that, now I'll explain their type/nama, as well as how to deal with all of the robots in general."
Makori flipped the whiteboard and revealed another set of writing;
C17 (Citizen)
13U11 (Bully)
D46 (Dacrawler)
5QU (Squatter)
P011 (Police)
14R6 (Large Bot)
S.W.A.T.
M364 (Mega Bot)
H013 (Higher Up)
541 (Sama/Leader)
As for how nama worked, these types actually determine how easily the robot was deactivated and the indication of which could be put on which job. Normal robots that had daily to day basic needs and work were put on C17. These robots were the easiest to deactivate; all you had to do was pull their cable behind their neck and deactivate them. The plus side of this type, they never had a transmitter and never attacked back, the only thing they could do was fire an alarm. C17 only had 2 variants, which were Humanoid and IC. Other than that usually won't work out so well or even be rejected, thrown, and labeled as a 13U11 type.
13U11 or Bully was usually the rejected robot that other robots despised and these namas never had a specific program coded into them but they still had the intellect attached to them, so these robots began to write their code themselves to attack humans, thinking it would be seen as a hero to other robots. This type of nama comes in 7 variants, which range from variant 3 (Humanoid) to 9 (Celladrone). To defeat them, the easiest was to just fight them face to face or use a disable-ator. But when this robot is a variant 6 to 9, you have to aim for the leader of the group or their main engine.
D46 (Dacrawler) and 5QU (Squatter) were the first two unique types/namas. The idea was generated by Kyle, and Makori gave him the okay to create this back when they were partners. While Dacrawler mimicked a short animal, Squatter mimicked a living being that could use 2 legs but also used their hands to be their legs. This type usually roams mostly in the wild and rarely do they attack humans or other robots. But when other robots programmed or gave commands to these namas, they would attack in commands. These two have 3 variants, ranging from variant 4 to 6. To defeat these namas, just break them like break toys. All of their design was so fragile that when they got smashed with fast airborne basketball or soccer ball they already broke.
P011 (Police), 14R6 (Large Bot), and S.W.A.T. were the next big thing. Created by Kyle and adopted by Makori, these namas were the big guns. When crime was roaming, these three were the ones to chase them. Ranging from human laws/rights to robots' laws/rights, they treated all equally brutally. Police and SWAT have varied from 3 to 10 while Large Bot varied from 4 to 9.
Police and SWAT variants 3 to 6 normally deactivated the easiest because they didn't have a very stable core/engine. For 7 to 9 however, you had to be careful that these types could swarn you and actually consume you to use as their advantage. To defeat them, searched for the leader and destroyed it. It sounded easy but it was actually hard. Then after you destroy that, you have to find the transmitter too which is more difficult than the actual leader of the Nanotech.
As for Large Bot, the only variants that intended to mostly roam around were variants 4 to 6. These robots were not actually human robots, they were large vehicles and they could transform into large humanoid-looking robots like the movies about alien robots. Those variants were easy to destroy. You have to destroy them from the inside and the whole thing would break. Unless you're dealing with variants 7 to 9, you had to do the same as Police and SWAT types/namas.
And finally M364 (Mega Bot) and H013 (Higher Up), the mega bad. These two actually only had 2 variants, which were variants 9 and 10. As a lot of days passed, Makori finally found how to defeat these two types.
Mego Bot was a robot that mimicked buildings and town-scrappers, the purpose of these robots was to connect each robot to others. They always stayed put in one place and the way you know the building was a Mega Bot was to use Zeryl Glasses that forte in detecting robots. To deactivate it, you had to disable the heart of the bot, which was down below the building.
The Higher Up robots were mostly just replicas of political figures around the world and time. The way to defeat these was the same as any other robots that had variants 9 and 10.
The idea of these two types/namas didn't come from Makori, this was Kyle's idea alone. He made these in District 1 and made a big announcement when the apocalypse just started that only robots and machines were allowed in there. As a result of that, most of, if not, all of the people who lived in that district died.
541 (Sama) was the last type/nama, but unfortunately, Makori had never figured out what its weakness. Because of how he programmed this robot to mimic exactly how Makori and his family would think, Makori thought that Sama probably upgraded himself more and more to the point that Makori himself never had thought of. That's why Sama would probably be the final threat and they will be fighting against him at the end.
