I Aggressively Stack Steel of the Heart in the Knight Order

BANG—!

Following orders, Seventy-Six pulled the trigger. The bullet, forged from a shattered Radiant Holy Artifact and enhanced by Witchcraft Technology, slammed into Knight General Lima’s back, shattering his spine and piercing through his chest.

A strange smile appeared on the face of Enok, the Baron of Bator.

At the same time, battle erupted inside the Avenger Flagship!

Just as Urus’s Knight’s Broadsword, aimed for a killing blow, was about to strike Reinhardt square in the face,

A dark purple, living substance, like a web of fine muscle fibers, instantly enveloped Reinhardt’s Full Coverage Helmet.

Then, Urus felt a tremendous force slam into his Knight’s Broadsword, knocking his strike uncontrollably off course. His body felt as if it had crashed into a steel train speeding at full tilt.

BANG—!

That terrifying power turned into a shockwave that blasted into his abdomen, sending him flying backward uncontrollably until he slammed heavily against the bulkhead of the Avenger Ship!

The immense force of the impact even made the colossal, steel beast of an Avenger Ship shudder violently!

It all happened too fast. In a flash of lightning.

Koller was still pondering the deeper meaning of Seventy-Six’s words. By the time he realized what was happening, Urus had already been sent flying. Reinhardt simply stood in place, retracting the right leg he had used for a side kick.

Before his body even hit the ground, Urus instantly transformed into a swirling gale and roared, ”Koller! Lock down the Avenger Flagship, now—!

Tell Seventy-Six to return to the ship immediately!”

Elementalization was the signature Special Ability of an Elemental Knight after being promoted to an Earth Military Rank.

Hearing the order, Koller’s expression hardened. He immediately understood what Urus was doing.

Powerful Spiritual Lightning erupted from his eyes. With a thunderous shout, a potent Spiritual Energy Field instantly enveloped the entire Avenger Ship!

Just as Urus, holding nothing back, used his Earth Ring: Death Wind Cut—his Elementalized form a gray-white gale that tore the command console on the second level to shreds—and charged Reinhardt with lethal intent,

A dark purple energy pulse, like a wall of silence, suddenly appeared in his Knight Perception!

The moment Urus made contact with the energy pulse, he was involuntarily forced out of his Elementalization. Even the power of his Earth Ring felt as if it had struck indestructible steel.

’This is bad—!’

Even though Urus realized he was no match for Reinhardt in a direct confrontation, it was too late to pull back now.

The next moment, Reinhardt’s right hand clamped down on Urus’s Full Coverage Helmet and slammed it downward.

BOOM—!

Just like that, the full-force attack of the Four-star Earth Military Rank Silencer Warlord was stopped. Reinhardt seized him by the helmet, armor and all, ignored his Knight Power, and brutally smashed him into the floor!

Even Koller’s power, suppressed and interfered with by the Earth Ring·Forbidden Magic Force Field, flickered like an extinguished candle for a moment, causing the senior Think Tank member’s face to pale dramatically!

He stared at Reinhardt in utter horror.

’This level of Knight Power...’

But it wasn’t over.

In Koller’s Spiritual Perception, an extremely powerful Knightly Aura erupted from Reinhardt. The next instant, like a skipped frame in a video, he appeared behind Technician Soldier Hook.

This was the Special Ability of the Earth Ring·Time Sand Flow: Time Compression.

A simple, unadorned high kick, propelled by a stream of blue, high-temperature energy, viciously slammed into the Technician Soldier’s body.

BANG—!

Hook, who also possessed the strength of an Earth Military Rank, was sent flying like a kite with a snapped string. The Power Armor on his arm caved in and shattered, and the ribs on his right side broke one by one. When he crashed into the bulkhead of the Avenger Ship, half of his body became embedded in it!

After doing all this, Reinhardt extended his right hand, and the Eternal Flame ignited upon the Divine Emperor’s Fury.

As Urus, who was rolling over to try and fight back, and Koller, who stood frozen in place, watched in utter horror,

He slowly walked over to the half-dead Hook.

As he looked down, the Eternal Flame of the Eye of Judgment appeared in his eyes.

’Urus wasn’t the only one who had understood the hidden meaning in Seventy-Six’s words. Based on my knowledge of Seventy-Six, that carefree guy wouldn’t have uttered a single word of concern even when he went to pick up the half-dead Matthias. His sudden concern, telling me to be careful, was a clear hint that one of Kles’s people might be on the ship. But besides me, there were three others on the Avenger Flagship. It was hard to be certain who had leaked our location and plan. And now, with the power of the Eye of Judgment, it was very clear who Kles’s person was.’

Although less than three seconds had passed from Urus’s sudden attack to Reinhardt kicking Technician Soldier Hook away, for an Earth Knight’s neural reflexes, it was enough time to think and make a judgment.

At this moment, Reinhardt looked up. The power of the Eye of Judgment, capable of seeing into souls and hearts, swept over Urus and Koller before finally returning to Technician Soldier Hook.

An imperceptible trace of Void Power, so faint it was barely visible even under the gaze of the Eye of Judgment, was embedded deep within the Technician Soldier’s soul like a parasite, fused as one with him.

Then, a bizarre, inhuman voice echoed from Hook’s throat throughout the Avenger Flagship.

He tilted his head back to gaze at Reinhardt.

”Hehehe... Everything is going according to the master’s plan, Reinhardt. Everything is...”

Before he could finish, the light faded from Technician Soldier Hook’s eyes, and the body embedded in the bulkhead fell still.

”Bastards... Those damn Infiltrators—!”

Kneeling amid the ruins of the second-level command console, Urus slammed a fist into the ground. Another failed confrontation with the Infiltrators caused the humiliation long simmering in his heart to erupt into a boiling rage!

He hated the Lord of the Legion for betraying the Empire, for betraying the Silencers.

This hatred was like eternally flowing magma, coursing through his blood at every moment.

’If it weren’t for that rebellion, if Lord Airef hadn’t gone to see that beast alone to reawaken his last shred of a Knight’s ideals...’

”AAAAARGH—!”

The pain of failure turned into a hysterical roar.

Urus clenched his fists so tightly that his knuckles and Power Armor creaked.

The Silencers were now just a defeated remnant. Even though they had given their all and made enormous sacrifices, their strength was still too weak when facing an organization controlled by the God of Conspiracy.

For the sake of this mission, for the victory of the Imperial Administrative Region, for the Emperor...

He and the Silencers had lost three Battle Brothers.

But all of it was still in vain before the Mighty Power of the God of Conspiracy.

Urus was very clear about their mission.

It had failed.

The consequence was that the Savenxis World would become the fuse—the fuse that would ignite a massive rebellion within the Imperial Administrative Region!
