Chapter 39: Absent Limb

A colossal creature seized Lex, its size dwarfing the others he'd seen before, and forcefully yanked him out into the open.

But as he was about to shoot, he was sent flying through the air and crashed into the building opposite with a loud collision.

Bricks and debris flew as he tore through the walls, emerging on the other side in a chaotic tumble.

Before Lex could regain his bearings, one of the menacing creatures ran through the hole he created in the building.

It pounced on him with speed and aggression, seeking to take advantage of his weakened condition and swiftly bring about his demise.

That's when Lex summoned his Gearheart with his left hand. In a split second, the weapon appeared, and with precision, he aimed and fired at the creature.

A resounding explosion reverberated through the deserted village, offering a momentary respite.
