Salute To The General (Nathan Cross) novel Chapter 3448

If Nathan were still a mere mortal, he might have some apprehension about the mysterious laser weapon.

However, he was now part of the vampires; in fact, he was the king.

The destructive power of firearms meant nothing to him, so he wasn't worried at all.

Moreover, with so many warriors slain on the battlefield, he, as the God of War, had no reason to flee.

“Take the troops and retreat, Ronan. I'll deal with these intruders personally.”

Ronan tensed up as he heard that. “But—”

“No buts,” Nathan cut him off nonchalantly. “They aren't ordinary people. You guys wouldn't be able to handle them.”

With that, Ronan obeyed. “Yes, Sir!”

Then, he and the remaining soldiers retreated, not forgetting to take the bodies of their fallen comrades away with them.

Now, only Helios, Lunar, Nathan, and a few others remained.

While Helios sized up Nathan with interest, while the latter scrutinized his two enemies as well.

Helios' eyes narrowed. “If I'm not mistaken, you must be Nathan Cross.”

“Are you also Demigods, like the one in the prison?” Nathan asked coolly.

“Since you're aware of that, you should release our companion at once. If you do, we might spare you this time,” Lunar chimed in.

Helios grinned at Nathan. Lunar had taken the words right out of his mouth.

“You sure talk big,” Nathan commented, gazing at the man and woman before him. “It's just a pity you haven't quite grasped the situation. It's not about you letting me go now; it's about me not wanting to let the two of you go.”

He continued, “Here in the Forbidden Zone, even Zeus, the mighty God of Thunder, and the Archangel, Michael, would have to humble themselves. Now that you've killed our soldiers, you best be prepared to stay here forever.”

Helios' face clouded over the moment he heard that.

“You've gone too far, Nathan Cross. Do you really think you're invincible after killing Herod? Well, you're wrong about that. Today, I'll show you what it means to have true power.”

With that, he began his attack.

Swoosh!

The man who initially stood ten meters away was now in front of Nathan in the blink of an eye.

He reached out with his right hand to grab Nathan by the neck.

To him, taking the latter down was a piece of cake.

Lunar couldn't help but smile as her eyes sparkled. “His powers have increased again. He should be able to pass the final test and ascend from Demigod to God soon enough,” she murmured.
