Liam suddenly felt Death loom over him and saw the sudden flash of the claw shining as it reflected the light that pierced through the forest's thick foliage.
He threw himself to the ground and lay flat, barely a moment before the energy would have cut him in half. But instead, the bright green flash of that sharp energy flashed barely a hair's breadth over his body.
Huff!
Huff!
Liam panted in shock and exhaustion. This chase had taken everything out of him. Even his core felt near depletion. Most of the time, he ran or jumped around. The energy was always focused on his legs.
This half an hour run had nearly taken his life several times.
He didn't dare go to the edge of that pit yet. Maybe the Tyrant Queen was still alive. Perhaps it had a few more of those attacks in her. Liam didn't know and decided to catch his breath while lying on the ground.
"That was a bit unexpected," Pollen's voice reached Liam's ears, but his voice sounded a little off.
