"Mae, don't go out front."

In the peripheral region, there is no Orient store that is the manufacturer of May. Normal maintenance can be done with a maintenance pod, but it is difficult to repair if it is severely damaged. A military combat bot could do something about it. May is an ultra-premium custom machine, so we need to pay attention to these parts.

"Yes, I'll fight with a throw."

Having said that, May took out something from somewhere that looked like a black metal stake. Yeah, that's a pile made of really hard, heavy metal. Categorically, it may be classified as a throwing arrow or a stick shuriken, but it is too heavy for a throwing arrow, and it is too thick and too long for a stick shuriken. Well, where did they hide it?

EEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!

"Whoaaaa!?"

A murderous iron spider raises something like an overhanging scream and rampages around, desperately avoiding the attack by the Imperial Navy Marines who are about to be involved in it. The Power Armor folks have managed to stay on their feet and fight back, but laser weapons and plasma weapons still don't work.

What do we do?

"Is it okay if we just go forward?"

“It's not good, but it's not rotten enough to abandon and run away.”

"I like it. That's what you do."

"Thank you for that."

Well, if we abandon this place and run away, we'll lose faith in Colonel Serena. Not very good. As a mercenary.

In the end, mercenaries are trustworthy, so losing the trust of our specialist Colonel Serena and the Imperial Air Force is a pain in the ass. On the contrary, if you stay in a place like this and help, you can earn a lot of trust. There is no escape here.

Best of all, if you run away here, you'll be licked among the mercenaries. I'm sorry to be licked by someone who says he's a runaway chicken. Well, if it looks really bad, I'll run. It is called a species with life. It is not brave but barbaric to risk death without a chance of winning.

"I'll attract you, so hit the timing with the mace all at once!"

I jumped out and jumped into one of the murderous iron spiders that was rampaging around me, saying that out loud. Killer Iron Spider decided that it was easy to use me without even wearing Combat Armor instead of Power Armor, or they saw two pairs of swords that clearly looked like melee weapons as a threat and charged back at me.

Oops!

Avoid the rush by jumping sideways.

The killer iron spider wasn't big enough, but it was still about the size of a forklift or a golf cart. Moreover, it is made of unknown metal, so it seems to weigh more than it looks. I wonder if my bones will break on the day I'm struck by a lunge.

EEEEEEEIG!

Didn't you like being able to avoid the rush? The killer iron spider stood up with only the back two of the six legs, and the remaining four arms--no legs? I have slashed it with ruinous tea. I thought about the slash as I played with my swords. If you have six legs, you're more of a bug than a spider. Well, it doesn't matter.

Isn't it harder than I thought? Wow, that was so hard. Oh, you feel stiff because you don't have a power armor muscle assist? You said the right thing to Colonel Serena.

OOOOYG!?

Gaon! There was a tremendous sound, and the body of the murderous iron spider leaned. I don't know what it is, but it's a chance, so I'll quickly run the blade onto the killer iron spider's leg and slash it down from the base of about three.

Yeah, not at the base. Did you mess up this part, the blade and the armor?

I was obviously distracted by the drifting rocks, and the killing iron spider was also irresistible. He must have wondered whether he should eliminate the immediate threat, or be alert to apparently ranged attacks flying from somewhere. Yeah, it's kind of like a living creature around here that shows off the stray. Kugi said he was a living creature, but that might be true.

AAAYIG!?

Gaon! The roar rang again, and the killer iron spider fell to the ground. Isn't that what this is? Maybe it's May's pile, right? Could it be piercing the flank? It was obvious that the Killer Iron Spider was slowing down.

Kick it!

Ohhh!

"Fuck you!"

The Imperial Space Force's Power Armor soldier, who saw the Killer Iron Spider fall, rushed to the floor and began to beat the Killer Iron Spider with a coarsely made mace. Yeah, this is terrible. In the blink of an eye, the body of the murderous iron spider was pulled, and its legs were smashed and broken into scraps dripping with creepy purple liquid. After all, it's strong to surround yourself and hit with a stick.

When I turned my gaze to Clinton and May, I had just erected the same pile. When I thought I was ready, a pile was already being thrown, and the murderous iron spider that Colonel Serena had cut through stepped with the roar. Yeah, if you eat it like that, you'll get a big hole in your body. May is strong.

Master, what are you going to do now?

I don't want to get close to him.

The last of them seemed to be slowed down by the intensive fire of laser weapons and plasma weapons. Thermo-optical weapons do not seem to have caused the surface armor to vaporize or burn out at high temperatures, but does the heat travel inside somehow? It may feel like the outer shell is being broiled by high heat and the body is being steamed.

Well, he's got a hell of a lot of heat around him. Is the air conditioning in Dawn Torres okay? I hope it doesn't break due to abnormal heating.

Haa!

Colonel Serena's sword, wielded with a schizophrenic temper, cut off the front half of the main body of the killer iron spider, and the killer iron spider became immobile. Want to smash that armor right in front of you, or some gorilla or something? Well, his outer shell was hard enough not to be slashed just by hitting him with power, so maybe it was because of the technology.

"Captain Hiro, I felt stiffer than I had ever heard."

"The base of my foot was softer, but the blade and armor were harder than I remembered." I may have made a mistake, I'm sorry. After all, it was only for a moment. "

"Then I can't help it." Are you sure you want to clear that as well? "

The last murdered iron spider that was bursting with hellish heat from a concentrated fire crumbled to the floor and fell apart.

"It looks like it's done... but why is the Colonel doing this again?" It's more work in another department, isn't it? "

Upon hearing that, Colonel Serena shrugged her shoulders with an indescribable expression. Apparently, I can't speak with classified information or anything.

"Well, it's pretty useful as armor... oh, is that so?"

"Our main goal is to beat up the bandits around here and keep them quiet."

I see.

The main objective was to counter the Cosmic Bandit, but I'm afraid you've also done some other work related to the Iron Spider. His resistance to thermo-optical weapons is impressive. What if this guy's armor-- no, the crustacean? Anyway, it would be useful if we could use his defenses on Battleships, Power Armor, Combat Armor, etc. It seemed like we needed to do something about the heat.

"I don't seem to have much to do with it, so do your best." I mean, if you can, don't let me have anything to do with it. "

I'll think about it.

You're definitely going to get involved in the response. Come on, man.

That being said, she has limited command of me as an employer, so I feel that my bad luck would draw her to what she wants if she were placed in a place like that under her authority. So it's clogged. Let's give up.

"Master."

"Oh, May, it was nice support. Is there anything wrong with your body?"

"Yes, thank you for your concern." Was your husband injured, too? "

"It's all right. We should go back to the ship and rest for today."

Yes.

That way, I could rendezvous with Mimi and Elma together and get back to the ship without getting into any trouble. "From the first day on, I can't be compassionate..."
