The second round of the battle had begun. Just like before, the Luminous Armorers struck the battle formation of the four mercenaries, who were outnumbered. 

“Get lost!” Ed roared loudly, keeping his body pressed entirely against the large shield he was hiding behind. He used the exoskeleton armor and the explosive force of his cells being activated to propel forward at a speed that far exceeded his usual speed. 

The two Luminous Armorers who were directly in front of him almost did not pause. Along with the momentum, they smashed the two warhammers onto the large shield. 

Cracks appeared on the surface of the large shield, but that did not stop Ed from charging forward.

This time, the two Luminous Armorers did not get to take advantage of the situation. Their bodies were simultaneously quaking, forced to stop in place because of the reaction force. 

There was a look of insanity in Ed’s eyes. Initially, he could actually stop the attacks of the two Luminous Armorers by coming to a halt. However, he forced himself to bear the impact of the two attacks, meaning he was spurting blood even with the blockage of the large shield.

But having lost his ability to feel pain, he no longer cared about any injuries at all.

He simply forced his way closer to the two Luminous Armorers, and following his attack, the rest of the mercenaries also charged in his direction.

Clark’s attack with the spear was the farthest away. The spear, which was glowing with a faint luminescent light, struck the chests of the two Luminous Armorers at the very instant that they paused.

The defensive armor that was made of Class 1 material on the chest area of the Luminous Armorer protected the two Armorers. Although their bodies were sent flying backwards because of the blow and blood spurted out of their mouths, they did not suffer any fatal injuries.

Most of the impact from the two stabs was channeled into the exoskeleton armors.

The exoskeleton armor itself could spread out the impact from attacks and weaken the force itself. With the protection of the defensive armor made of Class 1 material, the two Luminous Armorers merely suffered fractures in their sternum, with blood gushing out of the wound.

After being sent flying away by the attacks, they immediately activated their icy cold Healing Potions and injected them into their bodies. The potions quickly repaired the fractures in their heads and calmed their blood.

However, they had also lost the advantage they had when they were surrounding the mercenaries. The other three Luminous Armorers in different areas tried to chase after the four mercenaries, but were frantically blocked by Fessier alone.

With just one blow, the blade of Fessier’s giant axe was shattered by a Level 2 warhammer. At the same time, he was struck several times in the shoulder and back. 

For him, the real win of the battle was that he had managed to slightly injure a Luminous Armorer with the sweep of his giant axe, while also blocking the two other Luminous Armorers.

The Black Diamond Exoskeleton Armor on Fessier’s body had shattered, from the part resting on his shoulder all the way to the back, where the bloody open wounds and white bone fragments were clearly visible.

At this moment, Fessier was severely injured but was laughing maniacally while swinging his giant axe, which was missing its blade, in his hand. It was as if he was unharmed.

The two Luminous Armorers were momentarily frightened by the state that he was in. Given the injury he had sustained, he should have fallen to the ground long ago and ended up being unable to move.

Fessier and Ed’s desperate efforts, as well as Clark’s attacks, were not in vain. Captain Feroman rushed towards Galen and David like a phantom, as there were no longer any armorers to get in his way.

“Uncle Galen, let’s retreat!” David frantically yelled when he saw Captain Feroman rushing over.

He did not expect that the dynamics of the battle would change in an instant, and that they would lose the previous advantage of having the defense of the Luminous Armorers. The mercenaries broke through their siege in the blink of an eye and charged towards David and Galen.

Galen gently pulled David closy and placed him behind him before reaching his right hand out.

His right hand was now covered in a luminous blue metal.

Captain Feroman looked at Galen, who was now in sight, his heart filled with hope of a victory after noting that Galen was not wearing any exoskeleton armor. 

Judging from the fact that Galen had five Luminous Armorers, they felt that Galen was definitely a big shot. With such an authoritative figure, and David, as a hostage, he could definitely leave Planet Rocky safely. Maybe he could even obtain a large ransom.

His hopes of improving his situation had resurfaced. Hence, he couldn’t help but speed up.

To him, Galen and David were just a massive amount of credit points waiting to be snatched up.

However, as he got closer and closer, he saw the disdain on Galen’s face, a look of contempt for those of lower levels than him.

Captain Feroman was very familiar with that look, because he had it on his own face from time to time.

As a Peak-level Armorer, he was the top existence among the armorers. Additionally, both his Level 2 longswords gave him the confidence to look haughtily down on other armorers.

‘Why would Galen, who is not even wearing any exoskeleton armor, have such an expression?’ he wondered. ‘Does he still have some trump card up his sleeve?’

However, given such a distance, even a trump card couldn’t help them.

Just as Captain Feroman rushed in front of Galen, spinning the sword in his right hand around and trying to grab Galen with three fingers, Galen moved.

Captain Feroman was extremely careful, not because of the attack, but rather, he did not want to hurt Galen and David. They were the two hostages he had left, who would also bring him a large number of credit points.

Galen’s arm disappeared in front of David’s eyes. Actually, it should be said that Galen was just too fast, so much so that even David could not see the movement of Galen’s arm, despite having 3.0 Physique. 

“Captain, watch out!” Clark suddenly exclaimed from behind Captain Feroman, a creepy feeling suddenly overcoming him. Hence, he decided to warn Feroman.

However, it was too late, Captain Feroman kept his hand outstretched, like he had when he was trying to grab Galen. However, a hand passed through the armor on his chest, which was made of Class 1 material.

The luminescent blue glow on his arm indicated that it was of Class 2 material, but how could an armor, which would be pressed against one’s skin, exert such massive power? 

The reason for the exoskeleton armor’s incredible power was the Kryptonite-crystal-powered converter in it, which took up a large area of the exoskeleton armor.

Of course, David was the only one there who did not understand it’s true meaning, as the horror in Captain Feroman’s eyes showed that he was aware of what it truly was.

Captain Feroman looked down at the hole born in his chest by the hand that had reached in and was about to grab his heart. He knew that he was finished.

“You’re extraordinary…” Before Feroman could finish, Galen crushed his heart in his hand.

The glow in Captain Feroman’s eyes dissipated. Without the control of an armorer, the exoskeleton armor instantly lost power as well. 

Galen threw Captain Feroman’s body away and grabbed the spear that was right in front of him.

Clark was the one who had thrust the spear forwards, the last blow of his life.

Galen grabbed the spear, and with a slight shake, Clark’s double-handed armor quivered violently together with his hands, which were protected by the armor. Clark’s bones were broken into several pieces in a single instant.

When Clark released his grip on the spear, Galen drove the hilt of the spear into Clark’s chest, which resulted in a tremendous force that caused the Class 1 armor to break apart as if it was paper.

The hilt of the spear pierced through Clark’s chest, and he died while holding it in his heart with hands that had lost their ability to function. There was a desire for life and a sense of relief due to breaking free from the world in his eyes. His story vanished along with his death.

“Ah!” Ed let out a howl, like a wounded wolf. Under the effects of the Cell Activator, he was not afraid of death, and fearlessly rushed towards Galen with the large shield.

Galen’s face remained impassive as he reached his right hand out once again. The luminescent blue hand was like the sharpest weapon in the world, penetrating the large shield once again, as well as Ed’s heart.

The last mercenary, Fessier, was attracted to Galen’s killing method, and for a moment, he forgot that Galen was his enemy. Hence, he was struck directly in the head by a warhammer.

Even with the effects of the Cell Activator and the helmet made of Class 1 material, he couldn’t help the dizziness he felt from the strike to his head, followed by the constant blows from several Luminous Armorers, which directly smashed his skull, seemingly turning it into a broken watermelon.

David was not dumbfounded by the brutal battle taking place in front of him. Instead, he was sensing the four souls that the Shadow Servant was inhaling and the sense of relief that it was transmitting to him.

“You will collect the battle spoils. In addition, call the local police to come and clean up the area!” Galen instructed the five Luminous Armorers in a deep voice.

“Yes, Sir!” the five Luminous Armorers responded.

“Go back and train harder. You have disappointed me!” Galen said, waving his hands.

The five Luminous Armorers were incredibly ashamed. Despite having had an advantage in both equipment and manpower, they had messed up the battle and had suffered a big loss to the four mercenaries.
