"Fire-Infused"

Sanda glanced at the Sahar-Duin had appeared in surprise; it was the first time he had ever encountered Xenos that could survive after being removed from the water tank.

Without time to think, Sanda raised his Bolter Sahar-Duin.

The Xenos retaliated with similar weapons; among the enemies the Shadow of Order has encountered so far, the Sahar-Duin possess the most similar weapons.

Compared to the past when armor was only worn on the abdomen, the Sahar-Duin now wear full-body armor, greatly enhancing their protection.

The deafening roar of exploding bombs was deafening, and flashes of fire flickered on the deck.

As Sanda pulled the trigger, killing several Xenos, he also noticed that the Sahar-Duin remained standing still, simply firing from their positions.

Sanda glanced at their heavy armor, which was almost as thick as his Power Armor, while the Sahar-Duin did not have Black Carapace implanted in their armor, which was driven by muscle bundles.

The Xenos's contorted body moved much more slowly than the Shadow of Order.

"Tactical maneuver!"

After he finished speaking, the flag bearer of the 7th Company raised the flag high.

As a company predominantly of Catachan, its flag is painted with an image of the Catachan Devil.

Sanda and his guards spread out around the company flag and began firing at the Sahar-Duin as they moved.

The Sahar-Duin stiffly moved his arm, launching an attack against the Shadow of Order.

As Sanda had predicted, they were moving much slower than before, unable to keep up with the speed at which the Shadow of Order was moving.

Two Shadow of Order fell, and hundreds of Sahar-Duin perished.

The Shadow of Order moved in a zigzag pattern, advancing diagonally forward before turning in another direction.

Each person moves a different distance and in a different direction, yet they can coordinate perfectly.

The 7th Company wave advanced in a wave-like motion, breaking through the Sahar-Duin and penetrating the interior of the warship.

Sanda, the standard-bearer, and the Shadow of Order in the front row all drew their Catachan Fang and charged forward, slashing at the Sahar-Duin with their blades.

Sahar-Duin drew his Power Sword to meet the attack, but the Shadow of Order attacked even faster.

Sanda cleaved through the Sahar-Duin's blue armor with a single sword strike. His pupils contracted as he saw slender tubes wrapped around the Xenos's body.

He instantly understood how the Sahar-Duin managed to survive without carrying water jugs.

Because we have been targeting the Sahar-Duin's water jugs as a weakness, they came up with the idea of wrapping water pipes around their bodies so that their gills could sustain them.

However, this also creates new weaknesses for them, and the Shadow of Order excels at exploiting those weaknesses.

"The Hunter" said in the communication channel, "Confirmed Sahar-Duin, new weakness is speed."

"Hunting!"

The "Hunter" charged forward swiftly, his Power Blade spinning rapidly as he surged through the Sahar-Duin.

Sanda charged forward, cutting through four wet decks.

Suddenly, a tall Sahar-Duin dressed in blue armor appeared before him.

Sanda charged toward the creature, his pupils widening suddenly as the Xenos moved with unexpected speed.

He had no time to change his stance and swung the Catachan Fang he was holding.

The Xenos brandished its Power Blade and slashed fiercely.

The blades clashed, Sanda was knocked back a step.

The Shadow of Order immediately noticed that the tall Sahar-Duin was stronger than the other Xenos; his strength was ferocious, and his movements were faster.

Sanda stared intently at the Xenos. As Catachan, he had no shortage of experiences of defeating the strong with the weak since childhood.

With skill, he still has a chance to defeat the Xenos.

Sanda swung his sword sharply, aiming for the Xenos's long neck.

A piercing screech of impact rang out, and a dazzling light flashed in his eyes.

Sanda suddenly saw the Sahar-Duin open their mouths, revealing sharp teeth.

The hunter was puzzled; although the Sahar-Duin's teeth were sharp, if they tried to bite him, they would attack his neck.

Just then, he saw the Sahar-Duin's throat, revealing a blue tube.

A jet of water shot out, heading straight for Sanda.

The water slapped against the helmet of the Shadow of Order, the slime quickly Corrosion his Eyepiece, causing Sanda's eyes to burn and sting.

The Sahar-Duin grinned and swung his longsword, beheading Sanda.

Seconds later, Polti raised his hand and used his Archaeotech Pistol to shoot a poisoned bullet into the head of the Sahar-Duin.

He had just aimed at another Xenos when the voices of the guards came through the company's communications channel.

"Company commander, killed in action."

Polti, who had just been promoted to "Pyromaniac," held a higher position in the Royal Court than the other two lieutenants who were merely "hunters."

He knew he had to take command, so he issued instructions.

"I am Polti, marking the location."

"Yes, sir." As he replied, runes lit up on the Divination Box in Polti's Eyepiece.

"We must cross both decks, regroup the guard, and follow me."

Polti led his three squads, including fourteen Shadow of Order, who were reinforcements acquired after Calth cleared out the Gorgon Serpent.

The Pyromaniac infused the Catachan Fang with Spirituality, and the blade ignited with flames.

After being promoted to "Pyromaniac," Polti replaced his Catachan Fang.

Replace the one with an additional Disruption Field with one without, so that you can use the "Pyromaniac" ability to add fire damage to your weapons.

The "Pyromaniac" brandished his burning sword and led his team toward the runes marked on the Divination Box.

Polti rushed to the target deck and saw the tall Sahar-Duin. He swung his sword and beheaded the standard-bearer.

The flag bearer's body lay on the ground, but his left arm remained straight, and the company flag stood tall.

Just as the Xenos was about to swing its sword and smash the flag, a Shadow of Order roared angrily and charged toward the Sahar-Duin.

He swung his sword at the Xenos while simultaneously reaching for the flag; he would not allow the company's honor to be insulted.

The Sahar-Duin was forced to abandon his plan to destroy the flag; he slid to the side, severing the Shadow of Order.

Sahar-Duin were about to tear the flag apart, Polti swung his sword. He slung his Archaeotech Pistol over his waist, picked up the flag, and raised it high.

The Catachan Devil hovered above Polti's head, instantly boosting the morale of the Shadow of Order, who unleashed a barrage of bullets to suppress the Xenos.

Polti raised his sword to meet the attack, and after a clash of blades, he realized the difference between himself and the towering Xenos.

The Pyromaniac's eyes flashed, but he did not launch an attack; instead, he held his sword firmly in defense.

The burning blade clashed with the blue longsword, unleashing bursts of flame that struck the Xenos.

The Sahar-Duin held the advantage, launched hundreds of attacks in an instant, but failed to break through the black-armored Warrior's defenses.

He suddenly felt a heat inside his body, as if something had ignited it.

The "Pyromaniac" uses "Fire-Infused" when their blades clash, gradually injecting flames into their enemy's body.

The Sahar-Duin opened his mouth, about to spit out viscous fluid, when a loud explosion occurred inside his body.

The Pyromaniac detonated the fiery energy injected into the Xenos's body, and with a loud bang, the Sahar-Duin was torn to pieces.

The surrounding Sahar-Duin watched as their leader was killed and their newly crafted armor burned in the flames.

The Sahar-Duin's courage was shattered, and they scattered and fled, screaming.
