The Martial Unity

Soon enough, the raiding team of Deacon Industries came close to reaching the center of the fourteenth floor. The clashes between the defensive countermeasures of the tree and the martial Squires grew even more intense. At this stage, there were a few that were wounded extremely lethally and succumbed to their wounds before they could be fed any healing potions.

However, most Martial Squires possessed a natural healing factor that allowed them to survive such wounds that were becoming increasingly common. However, while the loss of every Martial Squire was a regrettable loss of a powerful combat asset, the individual losses, especially of the lower-grade martial Squires were not that burdensome to Chairman Deacon.

Squire-level conflicts inevitably led to casualties among Martial Squires. This applied not just to Martial Squires, but also to any Realm of conflict.

Soon enough, the time for Rui and Kane to act drew closer. The two of them were already completely prepped and geared with everything that they could possibly need for the infiltration and extraction operation that they were about to embark on.

The plan they had ended up coming up with was simple. Moments before the last set of branches were destroyed, the two of them would sabotage the senses of the Martial Squires raiding the floor with some special items that they had acquired, courtesy of Guildmaster Bradt.

Rui had procured several smoke-screen bombs that would give them enough of a momentary distraction and obscuration of their senses.

During this short moment, the two of them would rush in, store the gigantic boulder in the dimensional storage ring and then simply leave through the closest tunnel.

It sounded simple, but it really wasn't.

('The problem is that the energy consumption of the energy ring is going to be exponentially stronger than normal due to the fact that we're carrying a mass far greater than we normally do,') Rui narrowed his eyes.

The dimension storage of the ring was far from limitless. The more mass that one wanted to store, the exponentially greater the energy required to store the mass. What that meant was that the esoteric energy cells that Rui frequently changed would burn through exponentially faster.
