Alexander kicked his makeshift skates into gear, pushing them to their limits in a futile chase.The tech gap was a harsh reality. No matter how hard he pushed, he just could not keep up with Black Maple Master.With a swift motion, Alexander unleashed a pair of energy swords into the fog and pivote
Hmm?Alexander's eyes narrowed as he watched Black Maple Master's odd actions, his senses on high alert.It was downright weird how Black Maple Master—Black Maple Master—climbed a tree and then stopped. That did not make any sense.Something was hiding on the other side of that tree!Out of the corn
"Step aside, I don't have time for this!" barked Alexander, figuring that guy was likely another one of Black Maple Master's dispensable pawns.What a random challenge!"Ha! Feyen didn't lie to me after all. You're strong, a worthy adversary indeed."The towering fighter hefted his massive ax and ch
This feud was bound to be settled the old-fashioned way—by force."Formation, attack!" Arcan was not up for a solo showdown, so he bellowed to his crew.Whoosh! The assembled group of 30-plus scattered, each taking their place in a precise formation.Black Maple Master stood side by side with Arcan,
"Hold on, I've got a secret about an ancient jade amulet to share," blurted Black Maple Master, throwing up his hand to halt the impending blow.Black Maple Master's prowess was nearly unmatched, his semi-Empyrean level of strength meant that even bolstered by a battle formation, he would not last l
"Perish!" Arcan, channeling a power like no other, lashed out with his blood-red iron claws in a vicious assault. Each swipe cut through the air with a whistling fury.He was incredibly strong!Alexander parried with his sword, the force of the blows reverberating through his arms.Arcan was more fo
Alexander had dodged death on the battlefield more times than he could count, and giving up was not in his vocabulary.This was it!Alexander's body swiftly responded, channeling a sharp burst of energy that formed into a sword.He sent it slicing toward Gomorrah's throat.Boom!The creature snapped
Under the relentless sun, a team trudged through the sweltering rainforest."Buddy, give me a swig of strong liquor to warm me up," said Alexander.A man with an Eastvale visage and a full beard, tossing over a flask."Much obliged!" replied Alexander, not one for formalities. He downed the liquor i
"Kill!" As Alexander stepped onto the Empyrean Slope, a monstrous wave of killing intent crashed into his mind."Hmph, you think you're the only one fierce?" he muttered coldly, unleashing his own killing intent to counter the assault.He was the Temple Lord Kane, a man who had tread through mountai
At Battleforge Summit, a place where peril lurked at every turn.As the group continued their ascent, they lost a few more members. The ancient battlefield was riddled with deadly traps and poisonous remnants. The pools along the way harbored creatures so aggressive, it was clear they were not of mo
"Ah…" Alexander yawned, waiting patiently. Without a proper map, he would probably take half a day searching for directions. Battleforge Summit, though seemingly small, had a complex terrain.Time was slipping away, and Maxwell and Crimson Wyrm Master finally reached an agreement. The two-meter-wide
Early in the next morning, Maxwell's group of 40—the weakest among them a Lord of War—gathered quietly by the lake at the back of a mountain, somewhere in Shielded Valley. They stood in silence, their expressions grave.Though many had never ventured to Battleforge Summit, they had all heard of its
"Enemy attack!"Brenda sprang to her feet, drawing her sharp blade. Tensions had been high lately, and everyone's nerves were on edge."Perfect timing! I've been waiting to kill him sooner or later!"Alexander's killing intent surged, and his battle spirit ignited.Crimson Wyrm Master was destined t
As soon as Alexander asked the question, a heavy silence fell over the chamber. The three Guardians exchanged uneasy glances, but no one uttered a word."Never mind if you don't want to say anything, I'm just curious," said Alexander, sitting down cross-legged and closing his eyes to heal his wounds
"As you wish!"Crimson Wyrm Master channeled a furious surge of power into his spear, standing firm as he built up his momentum. Having fought to this point, he knew he had to unleash his most devastating attack."Here it comes!"All eyes were locked on the impending clash, each person holding their
"You fool! Don't think you'll be the last one laughing!"The Second and Third Guardians charged forward, joining forces to deflect Crimson Wyrm's relentless assault. Even with their combined strength, they could barely withstand a few moves."Do you really think we're without reinforcements?" roared
"Heh. I wouldn't dare accept your gift!" Maxwell scoffed, his voice steady despite the looming battle. Politeness had no place in this confrontation."Oh, but I'm sure you'll appreciate it," sneered Crimson Wyrm Master, his eyes gleaming with malice as he pointed at Darko, who lay crumpled on the gr
