The disappointed David ate five servings of strengthened meat, but he wasn’t able to complete the eighteen movements of Bodywork. Although his brain had mastered 99% of the Beginner-level eighteen movements of Bodywork, he would often end up failing midway due to a mistake in his body’s reaction during the process. 

The practice of the eighteen movements of Bodywork was a complete process. As long as any of the movements were not up to par, the effect of the entire practice would be lost.

Hence, even though David’s Bodywork reached the 99% Beginner stage, he wouldn’t be able to improve his attributes in a short period of time, let alone use the eighteen movements of Bodywork to better absorb the Level 2 Strengthening Potion. 

The following morning, David, who woke up early, headed straight to the underground gym without having his breakfast. He continuously practiced the eighteen movements of Bodywork. 

Last night, he managed to practice up to the sixth move of the eighteen movements of Bodywork. Today, he wanted to see how effective that practice was.

From the first movement until the sixth, his body and brain were perfectly synchronized, and there wasn’t a single mistake at all. 

However, at the beginning of the seventh stance, he missed a beat because his muscles were not used to the movement. As a result, the exercise was yet another failure.

Nevertheless, this also gave David hope. While he was eating the strengthened meat to recover his strength, he also thought about the failure just now. He felt that as long as he summed up the reasons for the failure and practiced more, the theory in his brain and his body would work perfectly together.

He was confident that he would master 99% of the Beginner Bodywork within a few days. 

Through the experience of absorbing the Knowledge Orbs this time, he discovered that the logic behind the fusion of physically-related Knowledge Orbs was not as simple as that of academic Knowledge Orbs, which could be readily used after absorption. 

As he was recovering his strength, he received a video call request on his identity bracelet. With a mere thought of his, the Shadow Servant in front of him turned into nothingness.

“Father!” David activated the video call and greeted his father, Hans.

“David, take care of your health!” Hans reminded with concern as he looked at David who was drenched in sweat. 

“I’ll take note!” David answered smilingly, sensing his father’s love and concern for him. 

“David, there will be a government-hosted celebration on the evening of New Year’s Eve, and I’d like you to attend!” Hans answered, supplying the reason for the video call. His voice was full of anticipation.

He had always been on not-so-good terms with David, but now, his relationship with David finally improved. That made him eager to introduce some connections to David.

David was almost an adult. In most political families, a child as old as David would have been involved in those social events a long time ago.

The cocktail party hosted by the government was also the biggest annual event in Pelan City. The invited guests included the mayor of Pelan City, as well as the senior officials of various departments. It was also an occasion for the younger generation to get acquainted with each other. 

In particular, the demure ladies of the famous families in the city would also attend the reception. To Hans, who had always been concerned about his son’s love life, that was even more important than helping David forge strong political connections. 

“Father, I will attend it,” David agreed after giving it some thought. He felt that there would be no danger or harm in attending such a gathering.

“Great, I’ll pick you up then. Remember to put on a suit!” Hans, who was obviously in an extremely good mood, reminded smilingly. 

David ended the video call with a smile on his face. The kinship in the unfamiliar world brought him some warmth, and he was constantly in contact with it as well. He wanted to fully integrate himself into the identity of David Karl. 

“From today onwards, I’m David Karl!” 

After uttering that sentence, David felt like he had completely integrated into that world.

In high spirits, he quickly immersed himself in practicing the eighteen movements of Bodywork once more. He managed to perform the seventh movement perfectly, though he was unsure if it was due to his good mood or not. 

Just as he was about to practice the eighth movement, the lights on the ceiling of the underground gym flickered.

“Emma, what happened?” he asked Emma, the robot butler, through his identity bracelet.

However, he discovered that robot butler Emma didn’t respond to him, which was almost impossible.

The robot butler Emma would not enter the underground gym to disturb David. There were no surveillance cameras in the underground gym, and David’s predecessor had to contact the robot butler Emma through the identity bracelet in order not to leave any evidence of the sacrifice.

However, even then, the robot butler Emma would still respond. 

David suddenly felt a chilling sensation in his heart. The previous tailgating incident, the non-accidental death of his predecessor, and the sudden disconnection of the intelligent butler Emma, all indicated that something was amiss.

He immediately used his identity bracelet to contact Officer Bob. The reason he hadn’t contacted his father, Hans, was because he knew that Hans was in poor health. As such, he didn’t want Hans to encounter a mishap.

“Unable to establish a connection with Skynet, please check if you are within a Skynet environment!” The identity bracelet beeped, making David even more certain that something had gone wrong.

“Edna, did you breach the security system?” Captain Feroman asked Edna, the female mercenary who was using the electronic invasion device beside him.

This time, the Sky Wolf Mercenary Corps, which was led by Captain Feroman, brought four experienced and innocent mercenaries to Pelan City in Planet Rocky.

Since the operation involved nearly over three million credit points, Captain Feroman was willing to make that trip himself. Most importantly, that mission was not dangerous at all.

After they arrived in Pelan City, things went extremely smoothly, so much that even Captain Feroman was surprised.

The T3 Sniper Assist Device that used to belong to the deceased Abbott, had a highly concealed signal location, which was the reason Abbott valued the device greatly. Moreover, it could be retrieved in case it was lost.

The T3 Sniper Assist Device would send out a brief positioning signal to the outside world every hour, and Captain Feroman managed to locate where the T3 Sniper Assist Device was through the positioning signal. 

He had already determined the position during the day, but he waited until nighttime to take action. 

“Captain, although this building’s security system is a bit tighter than a normal residence, the person who installed this system is obviously a novice. This intrusion device of mine can even break through the security system of a civilian starship. Hence, it’s a piece of cake for it to deal with this security system!” Edna exclaimed as she operated the device with her slender fingers without looking up.

“The information block can only be sustained for a maximum of ten minutes. Otherwise, it’s likely that we will be discovered by the security system in Pelan City. So you have to move fast!” Captain Feroman urged Edna while looking at the information-blocking device that was being operated next to him.

The robbery in space failed but they, fortunately, managed to escape. However, if they were discovered in the city, it would be a troublesome problem for them.

Of course, the five people present understood that no matter how tight the security in such a residence was, it would be a piece of cake for them to break through it.

The five of them did not even bring their exoskeleton armors and simply brought some weapons for self-defense.

One on hand, they felt that there was no need to wear the exoskeleton armor for such a small mission. On the other hand, it was because all of the surveillance cameras and security systems would be focused on them if they were to be equipped with exoskeleton armors in the city.

In that case, it wouldn’t be dealing with just one residence, but with the entire Pelan City. 

“Done!” Edna exclaimed proudly with a faint smile and a final flick of her fingers. 

“Clark, take Ed and Fessier in. Edna and I will wait for you guys outside. You must be fast!” Captain Feroman turned around and ordered. 

“Yes!” Several of the mercenaries responded.

Carrying a hand-held lightweight Level 1 Armor-breaking ax, Clark led two mercenaries towards the door. 

At this moment, all of the security systems of the residence were shut down, and even Emma, the robot butler, was forcibly shut down. The defense of the entire residence was not functioning. 

It would be difficult for ordinary people to break through David’s residence even if there was no security system. 

However, Clark was using a lightweight Level 1 Armor-breaking ax which was a weapon that could truly break through the shell of a Class 1 Bug. It could easily break the steel alloy door of the residence.

The lightweight Level 1 Armor-breaking ax broke through the lock system of the steel alloy door like a hot knife slicing into butter. It was silent. 

Clark then pushed his hand gently and the steel alloy door, which was originally safe and secure, was broken open. 

He used sign language to signal for Ed to move towards the second floor while he and Fessier headed in separate directions so that they could search the entire building faster.
