The Cosmic Fiend and Star Beast advanced at high speed. When their punches collided with each other, they created a very strong shockwave up to a radius of 100 meters.
Astrum is currently connected to his Star Beast, he can move the Star Beast at will.
The Cosmic Fiend dealt a powerful blow once again and Astrum only blocked the blow with his arm.
"BANG!!!" The blow was hard but did not move the Star Beast.
Astrum became more familiar with the defense level of the Bear Star Beast, this time he tried his strength. Raised his hand and then launched a claw at the Cosmic Fiend.
The Cosmic Fiend managed to withstand the claw attack despite having several cuts to his arm.
After trying several times for the strength and defense of the Star beasts, Astrum began to change his tactics. This time he tried to control the Star Beast as if it were him.
With the Star Beast's massive body, Astrum realized that moving agilely was a bit difficult. Since it was difficult to move agilely with the Star Beast's body, he decided to launch a fierce attack.
Some of the Star Beast's attacks can be blocked by the Cosmic Fiend, it seems that this Cosmic Fiend has begun to adapt to the Star Beast's attacks. Astrum increases his attack power by directing a punch from above towards the Cosmic Fiend.
The Cosmic Fiend noticed the attack and tried to parry it with both hands. Just before the attack came in, Astrum stopped attacking from above and then attacked from the open flank.
The attack went straight into the Cosmic Fiend's body and made it bow down. Astrum saw this opening and attacked the Comic Fiend's head fiercely.
With that ferocious attack, the cosmic fiend fell to the ground. Stepped on the cosmic Fiend's back and plunged claws into its back. Pulling the star source out of the cosmic fiend's body.
After the main star source came out, the star sources from other cosmic fiends also started to come out of the cosmic fiend's body.
This short battle was won by Astrum.
"This tactic is brilliant!" Thea was in awe of Astrum's tactics.
After the battle was over, they began to disassemble the material from the Cosmic Fiend's body. Thea discovered that the Cosmic Fiend that Astrum had just defeated had tier four materials.
"Astrum, you know that he has tier 4 materials?"
"From my previous experience, when they absorb another cosmic fiend, they can absorb its energy and change the material quality of themselves."
Thea had just heard this.
"It seems the Cosmic Fiend can synthesize materials."
"This is a very difficult thing, even we as Starians don't have this kind of ability."
"Unfortunately we can't nurture the Cosmic Fiend for something like this."
Astrum just nodded in agreement, it was impossible to nurture a Cosmic Fiend. Their instinct is to absorb star sources. It's will be difficult to take them just to synthesize materials.
…
The closer to Nexor, Sidus found that the number of Cosmic Fiends was increasing. During this journey, Astrum managed to obtain a large amount of Star Sources and several medium-rank materials.
The number of materials he got from this hunt wasn't as much as he spent training these star beasts, but he got better things; his control over star beasts increased a lot.
He discovered that each Star Beast had a special skill that consumed a certain amount of star energy, and Astrum as the owner of the contract became the center of the energy that would be consumed to use the skill.
Astrum needed to increase the amount of energy it could hold, and there was no other way but to increase its physique. The physical of Insignias is a vessel for star power, the more its physical strength develops, the stronger its energy capacity.
Use the available time to practice physicality and control the Star Beast. Several times in the hunt for the Cosmic Fiend, Astrum decided to attack with his might without the help of the Star Beasts. He does this because it is useful for increasing his physical strength.
…
Currently, their planet is very close to Nexor. Sidius and Stella realized they were close, they instructed the troops to prepare for the spaceship.
All personnel entered the spaceship, leaving only 125 Star Beasts on the planet.
By now Sidius and Stella had circled the home planet and printed some glyphs on the ground.
After they departed from the home planet and out of the planet's atmosphere, Sidius and Stella activated the glyphs they created earlier.
The glyphs scattered across the planet shone and slowly the planet disappeared from their sight.
Astrum, who saw this for the first time, was very surprised.
"It's useful for hiding our planet."
Stella who was right next to Astrum explained the function of the glyph.
"We still need to move the planet 100 kilometers away, so Thea can come to Nexor."
Sidius gave the instructions. This had to be done because Thea's body couldn't be too far from her Star Source.
As they moved closer to the direction of Nexor, they saw a small planet the size of their home planet and had an orange color mixed with green color.
Sidius and Stella saw something that left them amazed and confused. Looking at Nexor, the radius of 100 kilometers is empty, there are no asteroids at all.
"This is Nexor?"
"Yeah, that's our home planet."
Hiru answered while looking at Nexor with a longing gaze.
"Why is there an empty zone around Nexor?"
"I don't know, maybe because of the seal from Nexor. Even before the outer seal is opened, Nexor will not be seen."
This time Thea answered.
"Otherwise how did your troops find this planet?"
Sidius became even more curious.
"Commander Thiberry once told them that they found Nexor by accident. When the Green Leaf army was in the Outer Ring, they moved aimlessly. After a while, they enter the empty zone."
"Commander Thiberry was investigating the vacant Zone and accidentally landed on Nexor."
"After that Commander Thiberry investigated that the planet was empty and safe, they decided to enter Nexor."
"I don't know what happened, 14 years ago there was a change in Nexor. Nexor's cloak opens and reveals his whereabouts."
Thea told what the Thiberry commander had told her.
"Alright, now we're going to go in and ambush Zax straight away."
Sidus said firmly.
"Wait a minute! Nexor is currently divided into four continents and each continent is inhabited by every clan."
Thea wanted to explain further but was cut off by Sidius.
"If we catch Zax, then things will be over quickly!"
"Wait!" Thea again restrained Sidius for a direct attack.
"Zax and the army have invaded Nexor for 4 years, but they haven't managed to win over Nexor."
"That's because they haven't managed to get the Nexor seal key!"
"Isn't the key to the seal you?" Sidius asked.
"The seal keys are never one, but there are four. Each clan has its key. Commander Thiberry arranged for something like this."
"Without the four keys, no one can break the master seal."
Hearing this, Sidius was even more confused by Thiberry's decision. He tried to analyze why Thiberry made four seal keys.
"Actually, those four seal keys weren't just made by Commander Thiberry. But it is an ancient technology."
"Commander Thiberry only used that ancient technology."
"Alright, this won't change the plan of attack. Let's get the keys." Sidius steadied his resolve to attack.
"We can enter the Horn clan first. They are more open than other clans." Thea proposed.
"Alright, show me the position." Sidius agreed with Thea's proposal.
"How can we enter the planet without being detected by Zax's army?" Astrum asked.
"There's no need to worry about that, the planet Nexor has unique limitations. They cannot dictate our presence." Thea answered calmly.
"At that time, we were also unable to detect the presence of Zax's troops because of the restrictions."
Finally, they pointed the spaceship towards the location of the Horn clan. From a height, Astrum could see that the location of the Horn clan was in a large canyon with a large river dividing the canyon.
The two spaceships landed right at the location of the Horn clan. The atmosphere is very quiet, there are only the swish blows of the wind.
Astrum with Lilo on his shoulder led the three Great Stars out of the spaceship for the first time and was very curious about this huge canyon.
The other troops came out of the spaceship led by Bi, Hiru, and Daal.
Then Sidius, Stella, Thea, John, and Ave were the last to leave the spaceship.
Ave looked around in amazement, his biological soul soaring. He wanted to quickly research whatever was here.
"The location is right in front." Bi aimed towards the deep canyon.
The entire army entered the canyon in an orderly manner.
After walking more than 1 kilometer, Bi and Hiru stopped.
"Stop! There's something here!"
After those words came out, a black shadow flashed past. The black shadow very quickly moved towards Bi and Hiru.
Looks like the black shadow is about to claw Bi. But before the attack hit, Bi had caught the black shadow.
Slowly the shadow showed itself, the Beastros clan was the same as Bi and Hiru. The difference is the size of the body. Her body is slimmer than Bi and Hiru.
Astrum saw this realizing that it too was Insignias as there was an asterisk on his arm.
He looked at Bi who caught his hand with a ferocious gaze and showed his sharp fangs. Without warning, he bit Bi's neck.
Bi, only he let the Beastros woman bite his neck and blood flowed out of the bite.
Bi threw the Beastros woman away with one hand. The woman bounced 10 meters but was able to land on her feet. Staring at Bi with sharp eyes and killing intent.
His body turned back into a black shadow and moved to attack again. But this time the direction of the goal is not Bi.
The direction of the attack is Astrum.
