As the assault continued, the tempo slowly rose to the point of extreme difficulty.


    The distracted security measures were already being redirected to the inner facilities, where the Outers were attacking.


    As a result, the time they had bought was as good as spent.


    "#00: Martial Dance!"


    Edward went into a frenzy as he destroyed a vast amount of Golems in one fell swoop. His precision was extremely sharp—the result of practicing for so long.


    Compared to the few Neron had defeated, Edward''s pile of destroyed Golems was too great to begin counting.


    However, this wasn''t a really fair assessment, especially when onepared Neron''s focus on the whole operation.


    ''I need to find building schematics and additional information concerning their operations and other chain facilities.''


    Gathering raw materials was important, but it wasn''t as if they didn''t have a decent stock already. What the Outgroup needed at the moment was information.


    As a result, Neron ced a lot of emphasis on that pursuit—only taking certain items he considered rare or useful.


    They swept through the Northeast area, making their Southern entrance—the Outgroup''s rendezvous point.


    Once they all got there, they would resort to the next step of their n.


    eaglesnov?1,сoМ ''We don''t need to destroy all the Golems. As long as we avoid the troublesome ones and we use the tactics we already discussed, we can save them for after the M.S.B''s explosion.''


    The MSB was one of Neron''s most potent inventions. By causing a chain reaction of Mana Explosions consisting of different frequencies, and forcing each fraction to resonate with one another, the force would be magnified, thereby creating an unstable connection.


    Eventually, all the energy would sh, further increasing the destructive capacity of each unit—thus forming a massive chain of explosions in the end.


    In essence, if they managed to make it out of the facility, and then detonate the st, it would wipe out everything inside; Golems included.


    "Um… Neron, a little help here?!" Edward''s sudden yell distracted Neron in his search, causing him to swiftly press the watch on his left wrist.


    Instantly, a small ball-like Golem appeared from it—almost like a holographic projection.


    "Code: S43. Eliminate hostiles." He muttered, returning to his search.


    The spherical Golem swiftly made its way towards the cluster of Golems—almost a hundred—that surrounded Edward at this point.


    Whirring as it closed in on its targets, it finally stopped above Edward, sizzling with heat and glowing with brilliant light as soon as it got there.


    >BOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOMMMMMMMMMMMMMM!!!!<


    Sending a brilliant st from the centre, the floating ball destroyed itself—along with all one hundred Golems that gave Edwad trouble.


    Thanks to its position above Edward, the st didn''t affect thetter in the slightest, leaving him unscathed among the several defeated Golems.


    Edward wasn''t surprised, though. This was simply one of the many tricks that Neron could employ.


    Even without Magic… he was still more than capable enough to be the leader of the Outers.


    "Thanks, Neron!" Edward yelled, catching his breath as he made his way to his friend''s location.


    As expected, the energy in their cloaking devices was already exhausted, so the onught of their enemies would be even more aggressive than they would like.


    ''I still need to figure out how to increase the Mana Usage capacity of the Cloak Mechanism.'' Neron groaned internally as he observed their current predicament.


    He had recently hit a wall in that venture thanks to his preupation with other matters, as well as theck of an assistant to help with his research.<novelsnext></novelsnext>


    If only he had just one person…


    ''We''ll keep running into all kinds of trouble if this keeps up. This is no time toin, though…''


    Utilizing the goggles he now donned, Neron was able to see far ahead—even further than Edward was currently capable of.


    "Golems are heading in our direction from three o clock. We''ll need to take a detour!" He dered to Edward, who readily agreed.


    "Damn! So many Golems! Where are the operators? Is this ce merely an iron fortress?"


    "I told you already. They''re not simply made of iron, but—"


    "Yeah, yeah, I get the point…"


    Edward and Neron took their detour, avoiding the collision path they would have jumped into if they had continued their sprint in a straight line.


    "The moment we attacked, they would have been forced to flee. Capturing one or two of them would have been nice, but they have Teleportation Stones."


    "Oh, yeah… I forgot."


    Edward remembered their difficulty in catching a hostage despiteunching many attacks on the enemy''s many facilities.


    Usually, it would take an unbelievable amount of energy to even attempt teleportation. However, in the case of Jared''s United Nations, they had found a way to solve the problem.


    By linking two points together, causing their positions to resonate, they interconnected the two regions—thereby acquiring the Mana necessary to traverse the distance and making it smaller inparison.


    The reason Ciel spent so much time preparing their teleportation was due to the immense distance they had to cover, plus the two barriers they would need to bypass. In the end, using that kind of Magic was too draining.


    ''It doesn''t help that they use a special process to absorb a majority of the Mana in the atmosphere. They have the advantage.''


    Still, that changed nothing!


    Once they were done with this building, they would have destroyed a little over fifty per cent of the enemy''s supplies.


    Their efforts for so many years had not been in vain.


    ''All that''s left is the Dwarven Region. If we attack there, we can eliminate over forty per cent of their artilleries and then their technological advancements.''


    It wouldn''t be easy, but they had to do their best.


    ''Let''s survive this one first! We''re almost done!''


    Neron thought of his friends and he did his best to seed—not only for them but for the world as well.
