However, when her strike landed it didn’t feel like hitting fleshIt felt like metalThe horned man reathed in flame but they did not reach any vital part of himThe mutant rolled around in the sand for a moment to quench the fires, and it was revealed the only result was a scorchedto threaten his life
The h“Second brother has the strongest defensesEven for a young demonhunter you are weakDid you honestly believe you were strong enough to face our master? So naïve!”
“What I didn’t expect,” the Queen said through herstupid ed by her insult – for they agreedEach of thes in his serviceThey would tear the throats out of whoever he told the who or why
“Are you des as well, with Gods who hold your tetherWe’re no different, you and I!”
“You refuse to accept reality, and harass us because of your doght to be so self-righteous? Do you think you understand the wastelands at all? What right do you have to pass judgment on us?”
The black-clad mutant waved his handThe sweepers raised their weapons, ready to put her down for good
The Bloodsoaked Queen bolted fro place like a bat out of hellThe thud of bullets and crossbow bolts followed her, buried in the sand inches froed hHe held his rip but cut with such speed and ferocity it see down

The horned man’s attacks weren’t flashy or even terribly skilledHe relied on overwhelth, and so intense was the punch that its effects were felt even before they landedPunch after punch, propelled by pure force h to level mountains

They dared hared to assehters and twenty to thirty conscriptsThey weren’t a strong unit by any encyAt the very least they could pin down a sizeable group of sweepers
