The starways' Lone Watcher had expected some odd developments in his singular, nerve-fraught job on the asteroid. But nothing like the weird twenty-one-day liquid test devised by the invading Steel-Blues.

Jon Karyl, working on an asteroid is attacked by "Steel Blues". Unknown creatures who attacked him for no good reason. The story doesn't explain who Jon Karyl is, who the creatures are or why they attacked. It focused on the way he defeats them. Giving the punchline away with no shame, he used water.
Absolutely dreadful writing and storyline. 1/16th star. Not worth a read.
Sorry.
