“Well, well, you ruined Morency’s thing first, and now you’ve ruined mine. It seems you’ve been deliberately trying to get in the way of the Hawker Family. In that case, I ‘ll let you know that there’s no good end if you make troubles to Hawker Family.”

Jeff looks extremely angry now, and as soon as he has finished speaking, he lets out a roar and slashes Rowen with his ejector sword.

Rowen, who has been preparing for it, appears in the armored beast’s cabin in a flash, and at the same moment he activates the mecha and pushes the joystick toward Jeff swiftly. This step has become so familiar to him that it takes him almost no time to complete it. By the time Jeff’s epee hits the iron armored beast, and the massive body of the iron beast has already hit Jeff.

“Boom!” The epee makes a loud noise when it comes in close contact with the armored beast.

“Ah…” Jeff roars, ignoring the armored animal and hitting it with his ethereal sword. He doesn’t seem to be willing to show his weakness.

“Idiot!” Rowen snaps, then pushes the lever forward and speeds toward Jeff.

Jeff snorts and flows out with his sword. He crashes heavily against the wall of the Ryan villa. A mouthful of blood comes out of his mouth. Jeff is attacked badly in the first battle.

The armored animal doesn’t stop, hitting Jeff at high speed.

Suddenly, a windshield appears between the iron armored beast and Jeff, and at about the same time Rowen hears a wizard chanting incantation.

Rowen can see clearly from the screen that there is only one wizard in the Hawker’s party, and at the moment the wizard is holding his wand and chanting spells at high speed.

“The energy gun is activated!”

“Free aiming mode active!”

Rowen continues to steer the armored beast forward, aiming his energy gun at the wizard, and though he isn’t quite sure how to use the virtual sight, it isn’t hard to aim while the wizard is still standing.

“Bang, bang! Two volleys of white light are fired at the wizard, and at about the same time the iron armored beast hits the windshield.

With a snort, the windshield cracks, and the ironclad stops for a moment, then continues to hit Jeff.

“Ah!” There comes a scream, but it comes from the wizard. Rowen’s shooting is not that good, and only one in two shots hits its target, but not the vital part.

“Ding… ” The wand falls to the ground, along with half of a bloody arm. The energy gun hits the right hand of the wizard, splitting it in two. Then the wizard falls to the ground in great pain, which causes the already weak wizard to fall into a coma.

“It is a pity!” Rowen says secretly for he has been shooting at the wizard’s chest, but he has no intention of showing mercy. He does not like to provoke others, but hates being provoked even more.

With a sudden push on the lever, the iron armored beast speeds up again. Without the help of the iron beast now, he would have been cut in two by Jeff’s sword.

Jeff struggles to get up, but the previous hit is too heavy, so he can’t move his body. He sees the iron beast’s huge body is pressing on him, and his face becomes pale without a trace of color, and for this moment, there’s fear apparently in his eyes. A presentiment of the coming of death occurs to him suddenly.

At that moment a grey shadow flashes by, and the next moment Rowen realizes that he has lost his target. Looking at the screen, he finds that Jeff is already in the hands of another Hawker.

Seeing the iron beast crashing onto the walls of Ryan Manor, Rowen jerks the lever to the left, and after a month of practicing the Sun and Moon Mind Method, he finds it much easier to control the iron beast, at least with this lever, which he could basically spin at this speed.

The iron beast suddenly turns to the left and rushes towards the Hawker family members, but after all, it is too close to the wall, so the iron armored beast makes a scrape on the wall, and cuts a gap in it.

Seeing the iron armored beast rushes past, Hawker family members have to get out of the way. The unconscious magician and the injured Jeff are held respectively back to the Ryan villa. And the only person who stands still is the man who rescued Jeff.

He is a homely middle-aged man, dressed in gray cloth, with a small black sword in his hand, which is bent like a black snake.

The middle-aged man suddenly holds high the black sword. A purple ray of light shots from the tip of the sword, extremely dazzling. “Damn, it’s a level-Ⅶ warrior!” Rowen’s heart sinks. The level-Ⅶ warrior is unusually capable of doing damage with his Dou Chi. And when Agatha hit a hole on the iron beast today, he knows that the metal body of the iron armored beast is not indestructible. And he can’t decide if it can defend the attack from the level-VII warrior.

One can probably tell the level of a warrior by the color of his Dou Chi. Warriors of the first and third level cannot release Dou Chi, and warriors of the fourth and the sixth level can release only red Dou Chi. However, because the color varies from light to dark, it is impossible for the inexperienced people to accurately judge the level of warriors who release red Dou Chi.

However, it is relatively easy to identify the warrior who is above level-Ⅶ. Because each level of Dou Chi color is different, the level of warriors can be identified accordingly. Dou Chi color of level-VII warriors is purple, Dou Chi color of level-VIII warriors is silver, and Dou Chi color of IX warriors gold, but Dou Chi color of level-X warriors is transparent and colorless.

Rowen decides to ward off the purple Dou Chi, so he jerks the lever back, and the iron armored beast backs quickly, then he turns the lever to the left, controlling the iron armored beast’s moving to the left.

“Boom!” The purple Dou Chi flits off the right side of the armored beast and splits on the ground. The dust on the ground is blown into a big pit. The power of the purple Dou Chi is really remarkable.

“Bang!” The energy gun fires again. Rowen turns to a distance shooting for he can’t crash that warrior directly.

The middle-aged warrior stands still in place and does not move. Seeing the white light group of energy gun will hit him, he just wields his sword. Boom! There is a sound like an explosion. The white light spreads out quickly in all directions and then disappears completely.

After the white light dissipates, the middle-aged warrior still stands there unscathed. Apparently, the bullets from the energy gun are fended off by his sword.

The next moment, however, the middle-aged warrior finally moves. With a flash of gray shadow, which is reflected on Rowen’s screen as a fleeting ray of light, that middle-aged warrior has already come to the left side of the iron armored beast. His speed is faster than one could imagine.

Rowen speeds forward, trying to fend off the attack of the middle-aged warrior, but it is too late, and the armored beast shudders and its left is hit by his sword.

“No, that’s not the way.” Rowen knows at once that the opponent is moving too fast, and that the ironclad is too large for him to dodge his attack. At least as far as his ability to control it is concerned now, he cannot avoid his attack. Therefore, it would be better for him to go for it rather than defend passively!

Rowen decides not to duck anymore, so he turns the lever and charges at the middle-aged warrior.

“Bang, bang, bang!” The energy gun is firing at the same time, and the only two attack methods Rowen could use are all employed at that moment!

“Miss Agatha! Bad thing is happening!” Agatha is in her room when Millie, the maid, comes in hurriedly.

“I’m fine!” Agatha looks at Millie unhappily. “Why are you in such a hurry?”

“Master Rowen, Master Rowen…” says Millie breathlessly. “He is fighting with someone!”

“Oh? Whom does the stingy man fight with?” asks Agatha carelessly.

“Just, just the Hawker…” Millie gasps, unable to speak easily.

“That Jeff guy?” asks Agatha.

“Yes, that’s him,” Millie finally catches her breath.

“That idiot, how dare he humiliate my man, hum, I’m going to beat him!” “Where are they fighting?” Asks Agatha.

“At the gate of the manor…” Before Millie could finish, she can’t see Agatha anymore.

Agatha rushes to the gate of Ryan villa as fast as she can, but she finds that there are many people around, and even her grandfather Philip patriarch is there, too. She glances around, and soon she notices Jeff. He is clearly not very well now as his face is pale and he seems badly hurt. And the wizard next to Jeff even lost one arm and is still in coma. Obviously, he looks even worse than Jeff.

“Is that what that dumb does?” Mutters Agatha, who expects Rowen may get injured. She finds that the situation seems to be the opposite.

Then she runs to Philip and says, “What’s the matter, grandpa? Where’s Rowen?”

“Over there,” Philip points to the door.

Agatha looks out and sees at once that Rowen’s enormous summoning beast is hurtling around. It emits occasional white lights while a figure much smaller is dodging it with occasional bursts of purple Dou Qi.

“What the hell? the high-leveled warrior?” cries Agatha. “Grandpa, why are you just watching here? That niggard will be killed, and I must go and help him!”

“Haven’t you noticed, Agatha, that Rowen hasn’t fallen behind?” Philip smiles. “You really have good insight. The boy is beyond my imagination.”

“Summoners cannot last long in combination mode,” says Agatha, a little anxiously.

“Aren’t you here?” Philip smiles. “You should go now. You are the right person who helps him.”

“OK!” Agatha springs out of sight and appears in the field of battle. She thrusts her sword at Rowen’s opponent, shouting to him: “You can have a rest, stingy, and let me do it!”

Rowen feels relieved in the cabin when he hears Agatha’s voice. After a series of collisions and energy gun shots, the opponent doesn’t get much advantage, but he is already worn out as he needs to control the iron armored beast and shoot the enemy simultaneously. By this time he knows better that the iron armored beast is right: To be a better mecha knight one needs a better constitution.
