In response to that stone golem's ferocious onslaught, Jared's answer was equally voluminous. Concentrating the spiritual energy within himself, he channeled it into a sphere of light around his own fist as radiant as the sun itself!
Boom’.
Jared met that stone golem's fist head-on with his own. To the masses, however, the former's knuckles seemed so puny in comparison to his counterpart's. Even his entire person was dwarfed when lined up against that massive fist of rock.
Surprisingly, in tandem with a fulmination of golden light and a loud bang, the stone golem was knocked down to the ground in a burst of flying debris.
Reduced to a pile of rubble, the stone golem's former humanoid form had long since disintegrated beyond recognition!
Everyone regarded Jared with awe. It was inconceivable how his tiny body could have overpowered the stone golem's hulking frame!
With terror reflected within his eyes, even the color drained from Bruce's face.
“Mr. Mikkelson...” Isaiah shouted in alarm.
“Even if I were to die, so be it. But I shall not have my reputation despoiled this day!”
In his eyes appeared a smidgen of determination, as though he had arrived at some resolve.
With that, he slapped his abdomen with two fingers. His originally pallid face flushed red while he thrust his upper body forward and expunged a large spray of crimson orally. The blood fell like rain in a drizzle upon a mass of rocks!
Rumble, rumble, rumble—
An even larger stone golem, twice as big as its predecessor, arose in no time at all. The completion of this ritual, however, caused Bruce to appear significantly more haggard than before. Like a candle at the tail end of its burn time, Bruce could very well have keeled over had it not been for the support Isaiah lent.
“Kill him...” bellowed Bruce with the last muster of his strength.
This gargantuan stone golem lumbered toward Jared and caused the earth to quake every step of the way.
