News out of the ordinary

"And here's the last," The cloaked person said as the enormous gun in her hand suddenly restructured and reduced in size to resemble a pistol.

 As soon as a portal appeared in front of her and Max was violently pushed through as if there was some unknown force behind him, a quick shot went straight into the direction of his face and immediately landed a little above his eyebrow.

 "I just decided to spare those jewel pair of eyes otherwise, they would have been the target," The feminine voice came menacingly.

 Once the energy-filled bullet had pierced through his skin, Max felt a wave of energy go through his body and he fell flat to the ground with a thud.

 He wasn't dead. His opponent knew he wasn't going to die.

 The effect of this bullet was rather different from the previous ones that had eluded her gun. The bullet had placed him under a paralyzing effect and as such it somehow affected the speed of his regeneration.
