His voice was low-pitched, yet it was brimming with utter confidence.
Although he sounded very calm, but his words themselves seemed to carry weight, signaling his extraordinary existence as one that was above all lives.
Zenith indeed… was qualified enough to fit that image!
Jack’s body was dripping with blood, and while his body was slightly arching, his ferocious and bloodshot eyes resembled those of a beast. He was giving Zenith who was walking leisurely towards him a death stare, and there was an evil smile on his face. However, that smile slowly changed into a malicious and cold one.
He was in a bewitched state, and in exchange for his sanity he had gained tremendous growth in power. However, that didn’t mean that he had lost all sense for his surroundings.
When faced with Zenith who was closing in on him, Jack felt an apprehension screaming out at him from the depths of his blood.
It was the kind of natural sensation, the one that existed between animals in a food chain.
When a sheep was chanced upon by a cheetah, it would probably shudder in fear before running for its life, but if it was a tiger, the sheep would probably freeze in fear while trembling nonstop.
However, this was a meeting between cheetah and tiger, and although the fear was not the same, their meeting wouldn’t be a calm and harmless one.
“Hmm?”
When Zenith heard the sound made by Jack, his brows shot up and in an instant, his sharp gaze was piercing Jack.
Jack immediately sensed the danger posed by Zenith’s gaze, and reflexively… he took a step back!
It was just a step back, yet in the eyes of Achilles, Debut and Yarol who had hurried over, it was a shocking news to them.
“Jack… has taken a step back?”
Debut was incredulous.
Just a moment ago, Jack was indifferent to everything when he was fighting the mercenaries or the Oirat Army, and he was able to fend off all attacks while maintaining his composure without fail.
However, it only took a look from Zenith… to make Jack stagger backwards!
“If commander and Jack fight now, do you think the commander can tame Jack?”
Yarol suddenly asked a very key question.
Jack’s transformation was too baffling.
That immense growth in his strength was evident in everyone’s eyes.
Now that all the danger was gone, the most important thing now… was to turn Jack back to his original state!
Their most concerning problem was to tame Jack!
A white flash appeared in Achilles’ eyes as he looked solemnly at Jack and Zenith, his mouth twitching. In the end, he didn’t answer Yarol.
That was because he didn’t know the answer either.
He never saw the upper limit of Zenith’s power in his life.
As for Jack, he had renewed Achilles’ understanding of him throughout this war where he suddenly transformed.
When he fought Jack earlier on, despite the fact that he was very careful, Jack was still far superior than him. When Jack started his rampage, it was as if a tsunami was crashing at him, rendering him unable to counter effectively.
In his opinion, he couldn’t see the limits of their powers, so when they were going to fight, he didn’t know who would be the winner!
Jack took a step back as something flashed in his blood-seeking eyes while he let out a growl, as if to give a warning.
The Dragon Cavalry Sword dangled from his hand and with just a simple swipe, something exploded in the air and a mist of snow was billowing.
“I am going to take my spear!”
Zenith’s hand which was clasped behind him was now by his side, and with a serious gaze and solemn expression, he continued walking towards Jack.
At this moment, the snow surrounding them seemed to disappear.
