"Well that was easy." 
Card removes his Ichor card and stores it and Unfathomable Flesh back where they belong. He does however leave Home Cooked Meal active with a shrug, can't hurt to have some spare healing on hand

"Man its going to be a pain lugging this and whatever else we get today around. We have got to get better rides"

Alpha wanders to the side with some of the hotdog flesh and after a few minutes of trail and error he comes back with a vaguely dachshund shaped burnt hotdog mutant.  Something no man, woman, or child should be forced to witness, yet he treats it much like a house pet.

 

Then he follows the others to Nutrivatland

The group continues on down the road, and they spot Nutrivatland in the distance!

As they approach, they see a very crude-looking golem waddling towards them with lumbering, jointless steps.

When it gets near, a loud voice bellows out of it mechanically.

"GREETINGS NUTRIVATCO SOVEREIGN CIVILIAN-RESOURCE TYPE D, LAY ON THE GROUND SO NUTRIVATCO PROPERTY MAY BE LOCATED AND RETURNED!"

"THANK YOU IN ADVANCE FOR ASSUMING DOCILITY/RESIGNEDNESS BASED POSITIONS."

Card plays along, slowly moving down to the ground while slipping his Ichor card back in alongside the still loaded Home Cooked Meal.
"Full. Ichor."
Just as he is reaching the ground he draws his Chili Horrordog card and leaps back up Yeeting a Snack Orb at the robot with his sword like its some kind of baseball.

"CHILI HORRORDOG!"
He then uses the power of the card in his hand to detonate the orb, setting it off like a bomb in front of the robot's face.

Onion and Psolomom lay down, allowing the robot to approach.

 

"HOT DOG MATERIAL DETECTED.  RECLAIMING" the golem explains, its stubby round arms unfolding with a series of small metal brushes.

While Psolomom leaps into the air and does an acrobatic pirouette, Onion fails to leap into the air, pirouette or no, and the brushes scrape at him violently!

Psolomom's foot crashes into the machine's screen, sending it tipping backwards dangerously!  Its screen glitches and distorts.

Block follows up on this, running towards the machine and blocking it right in the head with a vicious block!

 

Card summons up a Snack Attack and throws it at the golem, but the explosive glances off of its mettalic, rubbery exterior, leaving a small singed place.

 

Alpha decides that the machine has gone on long enough without being obliterated, throwing a heaping armful of bomb-rocks at the machine!

The explosion shudders and shakes the land around as the golem becomes the new resident of the pavement, embedded deeply in it and with large cracks running along its body.

The machine looks ready to give up the ghost, but then, in a fit of cruel fortune, Onion's soul orb glints underneath their grass cloak, after the scrubbing the machine tried to give him had stripped it clean.

The golem shudders. and the cracks in its body widen as its screen pops and sparks for a moment before sliding out of the boxy-frame it was held in.

It keeps going further, and further out, while the cracks keep growing wider and wider.  The air grows red with miasma.

The machine stands to its full height, and its screen blinks frantically, the word "KIL" scrolling slowly across it in response to the sight of the soul orb.

"PROPERTY OF NUTRIVATCO" the machine booms in a bassy monotone, as a long, mechanical scythe and some sort of giant gun unfold on arms of their own.  The gun's barrel is big enough to fit a whole fist down, and the scythe's blade is edged with a dark purple substance.

"Well that's a thing! Trial! Unfathomable Flesh!"

Card quickly runs the Unfathomable Flesh card through his scanner again, this time however he decides to mix things up, given the greater threat.
Because this thing just SCREAMS 'I am much more dangerous then the random food scraps you just butchered'

 Spinning his sword around a few times in one hand till he stops it pointing downward, he starts swirling up the plasma and plasma constructs coming off it, before putting his other hand on the sword and swinging it forward in a sliding motion, then up. Casting the plasma free in a rolling "Disc" along the ground.

Thanks to Unfathomable Flesh, the teeth that are usualy simply fired at range when swung, should get pulled of into the swirl being made of plasma. As should the Ichor weeping from the blade which, is also of course, made of plasma.

The intended result is a rolling sawblade of Ichor and Giant teeth riding towards the target.
Card aims for either the center legs, or, if he can catch it while its coming in for a sweeping attack of some kind, the arm connecting its gun or scythe!


"Zankourin! Crimsion Blade!"

Hopefuly he will also release a snack soon, just in case.

The machine takes the first move!

 

3 5 5 5 3


Nutribot unleashes a hail of gunfire at Card, punching a hole straight through their left arm!  The gun's recoil makes the remainder of its shots miss, however.

Nutribot unleashes a vicious brushing attack on Psolomom.  Brushes scrub them down violently, damaging their body and clothing... A little bit, but not much, honestly...

Nutribot stomps forward, following up their brushing attack with a kick that sends Psolomom skidding down the highway!

Nutribot swings its gigantic scythe, the blade cutting into Card as it charges forward, before using the blade to fling them at Psolomom, the pair crash in a tangled heap, covered in cuts and abrasions.

Nutribot does a happy dance, spinning around in a circle!

"Oww Owww Owww Owwwwwwwwww"
Card pulls himself together and rolls to his feet, holding up a by now familiar card
"Unfathomable Flesh!"

 

Spoiler

Apply: Tendrils of reddish energy reach out and drain the life of nearby foes, returning it to the user.

Drain its vital energy to weaken it and heal myself.

Sensing that the beast was in fact reeling, Block attempts to Block the effects of the miasma from himself while he charges forward to high velocity block the Nutribot's screen with his arms!.

"Yeah!  Take that you dumb robot!" he shouts, kicking the hull of the machine and crossing his arms with satisfaction.


The screen flickers back on for a moment, "T HANK Y OU F OR C HOO SING NU TRIV-"

 

Fresh squeals with fear and punches a hole through the screen, prompting it to go dark for good.

Shrugging a little at the destroyed pile of golem stuff, Block picked up one of the chrome brushes and the death scythe, and dragged it along with him as he simply walked off to the theme park.

Card chuckles between owing.
"Tis a shame, I wanted to take that screen...Ah who am I kidding ill take it anyways!"

Card, after healing up with snacks, and offering some to the others, goes to remove the screen.

He later spends a portion of the trip doing minor testing with synthesis and manages to make some kind of glass computer core entirely out of synthetic substances. He taps at it for a bit before stopping.

Next thing everyone else knows he is shouting something about EM Waves and being a Kamen Rider, and turns into some kind of suited up fleshy dude with a tentacle arm.
He then spends even more of the trip trying to do things in his new form.
