Amos tried to endure the pain of the bullet digging into the flesh of his back. He had no choice but to be thankful that the bullets he had equipped in his car were ordinary bullets with low-lethality instead of the expensive enhanced ones.

Although the ordinary bullets had torn his skin and muscles after being launched by the machine gun, they were not powerful enough to penetrate his powerful muscles and injure his internal organs.

Of course, if he were shot by more bullets, he wouldn’t be able to hold on any longer.

However, the attack of the rapid-fire was coming to an end, and he grabbed below. Edna’s lowly method of dodging made it impossible for her to escape his grasp.

At the instant that he grabbed Edna, he pulled her and placed her behind him before speeding off in another direction.

If the smart assistant of the car, Dora, was fully controlled by Edna, the rapid-fire machine gun would automatically come to a halt. That would also allow Amos to have a hostage in hand, which was enough to threaten Captain Feroman into letting him go.

Those were the best decisions Amos had ever made in a split second, but there would always be accidents.

He moved too quickly, and Edna did not gain full control over the smart assistant Dora. She merely forcefully activated the automatic tracking attack function of the machine gun and set Amos as the target.

Hence, when Amos placed Edna behind him, the machine gun did not stop and instead continued to attack.

Within a short period of time, tens of kinetic bullets struck Edna’s body. Even though she was also an armorer, she was of the lowest level among armorers. Even Amos was also unable to block the bombardment of so many kinetic bullets.

In an instant, Edna’s body was almost broken, and even Amos felt the bullet hit his back after penetrating through Edna’s body.

“Edna!” Captain Feroman’s eyes were bloodshot. Edna’s death triggered his urge to go insane.

Electronic Warfare Division members who were also armorers were rare because the main enemies of armorers were the bugs. Hence, members of the Electronic Warfare Division usually did not have much of a place among regular armorers.

However, in mercenary corps, the electronic warfare masters were important for raiding starships. Without them, the mercenaries might not even be able to open the doors of their target starships properly, let alone the numerous defense systems on the ships.

In order to keep Edna, Captain Feroman resorted to every means he could and even went so far as to agree to get engaged to her, even though she was not pretty. He used his charm to make her stay.

However, all of his efforts were ruined by Amos.

Captain Feroman’s eyes were filled with murderous intent and the power in his body erupted in an instant. The special-ops combat sword in his hand darted out as well.

At the instant that the sword left his hand, Amos’s body quivered while he was trying to flee, after which he fell to the ground.

The special-ops combat sword pierced Amos’ right knee. It then collapsed into shattered pieces as it pierced into solid bone.

That caused his right knee to be almost covered densely with debris that was mixed with the broken bone of his right knee, making him feel excruciating pain.

At this moment, Amos tossed Edna’s corpse aside and hugged his right knee while wailing continuously.

The machine gun on the car had also launched all the bullets at him continuously with crackling sounds.

Holding the Level 1 sword with one hand, Feroman strode towards Amos and revealed a cunning smile.

“Since you had the audacity to kill Edna, pay for it with your life!” Feroman exclaimed with extreme infuriation. While speaking, he slammed his Level 1 Warhammer against Amos’ arm.

The terrifying power of the Level 1 Warhammer was reflected in Amos’ body. Every strike of the warhammer launched by Captain Feroman crushed the flesh and bone of Amos’ arm brutally.

Amos’s eyes were filled with fear and plea, but those emotions that he revealed could not move Captain Feroman who continued to hit Amos’s arms with the Level 1 Warhammer, followed by his legs.

In just twenty seconds, Amos felt like he would be better off dead. He just wanted to die as soon as possible, instead of being trampled on and ravaged in such a manner.

If there was enough time, Captain Feroman would have wanted to torture Amos for longer, but he knew that the police would arrive anytime soon, and he had run out of time.
