Nathan's pace grew faster and faster. In the end, his body transformed into a swift shadow, and he shot toward Max with great force.
Swoosh!
Before Nathan approached, the war blade in his hand transformed into a stream of light. It struck Max's head with an imposing and solemn aura. Max was already exhausted, and witnessing Bree and Parker being killed by Nathan only added to his fatigue. At this moment, he was filled with despair and felt as if he had lost hope as he faced Nathan. Thus, he had given up on struggling. He stared wide-eyed as Nathan's blade fell, ready to meet his fate. Just as Nathan was about to strike Max with the killing blow, something unexpected happened.
A massive black vortex appeared out of thin air behind Max. From within the black vortex, an authoritative voice resounded, “How dare you!”
Suddenly, a pair of enormous hands emerged from the black vortex. A hand suddenly grabbed at Nathan's sword. Meanwhile, another hand reached out and grabbed Max. The hand tugged Max, who stood there dumbfounded like a little chick, and forcefully pulled him into the black vortex. Nathan was both shocked and furious.
Someone had actually managed to rescue Max right under my nose!
In a burst of anger, he suddenly unleashed a powerful aura from his body. His sword let out a sharp cry as it fiercely struck down on the giant hand.
Swoosh!
The giant hand reached for Nathan's sword and shattered it. Meanwhile, Max's figure had already vanished into the black vortex and left no trace behind.
The black vortex was visibly shrinking at an astonishing speed, vanishing before their very eyes. A dignified sigh slowly emanated from the gradually disappearing vortex.
“A rare human elite, seen only once in hundreds of years. Truly worthy of being the human War God who once defeated my avatar.”
“Nathan, I initially didn't think you were worth my personal effort, but now I've changed my mind. You are indeed a worthy elite human for me to take on. I've decided to kill you with my own hands. Your countdown to death has already begun. Just wait for me to come and end your life.”
