Claire sobbed quietly. She knew he was telling the exact truth. "I cannot fight a god if my heart is terrified for your safety," Landon explained gently. He brushed a tear from her cheek with his thumb. "I need my mind to be completely clear. I need to be a weapon right now. But I cannot be a weapon if I am trying to be your shield." "But he is too strong, Landon!" Claire cried, grabbing the front of his torn winter coat. She pulled him tightly against her. "He is immortal! How can you beat him alone?!" "I don't know," Landon smiled a small, sad, brave smile. "But I have to try. Because if I don't stop him right now, he is going to erase the entire universe. He will erase you. And I refuse to let that happen." Inside the massive, glowing purple cavern, General Rauth began to laugh again. "How incredibly pathetic," Rauth’s booming, god-like voice mocked them. "You are wasting your final seconds of existence crying like weak little children. Your tears are delicious to me." Rauth
Chapter 460
For the past week, Landon had learned the beautiful power of teamwork. He had learned how to use the War Resonance magic. He had learned that trusting his friends made him stronger. He had learned that love was the greatest weapon in the world. But right now, in this terrible, impossible moment, that same love was a fatal weakness. General Rauth was no longer just an evil man. He was an immortal god of destruction. If Claire, Kade, and Silas stepped into that cavern, they would die in exactly five seconds. Rauth would not even need to fight them. He would just crush them with gravity. He would erase them with a single thought. If Landon fought General Rauth while trying to protect his friends at the same time, Landon would be completely distracted. He would be too worried about Claire getting hurt. He would make a mistake. And they would all die. This was the ultimate, meaningful core struggle of leadership. A good leader knows how to fight with his team. But a great leader know
Chapter 459
The giant, open doorway of the Lower Sanctum looked like the glowing mouth of a terrible monster. Landon Hale stood at the edge of the darkness. He stared inside the massive, underground room in Chicago. His broad chest heaved up and down. His breath made thick, white clouds in the freezing air. Inside the cavern, General Kade Rauth floated exactly three feet above the stone floor. But Rauth was not a human general anymore. He was a god. His body was a horrifying mixture of pitch-black metal and swirling, dark shadows. Giant, jagged purple crystals grew wildly out of his back like broken wings. His human face was completely gone. In its place was a smooth, flat mask made of dark stone. In the exact center of the mask, a single, gigantic purple eye burned with the toxic, blinding light of a dying sun. Floating right behind Rauth was the massive, rotting stone heart of the ancient Fallen God. The heart beat slowly. With every single beat, a wave of dark, dead-god magic washed over
Chapter 458
Claire closed her dark eyes. She took a deep, shaky breath. She looked at her broken, bleeding, exhausted team. They were the greatest fighters in the world. They were her family. And they were completely falling apart. They had fought so incredibly hard. They had destroyed factories, survived falling buildings, and defeated monsters. But they had paid a terrible, bloody price. This was the true, meaningful core struggle of their long war. Victory was never free. It always required sacrifice. It required pain. It required losing the people you love. "Is he breathing?" Navarro asked quietly, limping over to look at Marcus. Juno leaned her ear close to Marcus's mouth. "He is breathing," Juno whispered, wiping her tears away. "But his pulse is very, very weak. He has lost too much blood. If we do not get him to a real hospital soon, he will die." Kade let out a frustrated, angry groan. "We are miles underground in an evil fortress! There are no hospitals here!" "We have to finish
Chapter 457
Landon’s fists glowed with a blinding, terrifying white fire. He charged the undead monster. The monster swung its sharp crystal arm. Landon did not dodge. He did not care if he got hit. Landon stepped straight into the attack. The sharp purple crystals stabbed deeply into Landon’s left side, tearing his skin. Landon grunted in agony, but he did not stop. He grabbed the monster by its thick, armored neck with his left hand. He squeezed tightly, pinning the beast in place. “Claire! Now!” Landon commanded silently with absolute, pure fury through the War Resonance web. Claire Arden knew exactly what she had to do. Claire ran forward. She limped heavily on her twisted ankle, but she did not stop. She raised the ancient, glowing golden shield she had found in the Armory of the Fallen. The shield glowed with brilliant, warm, pure life energy. "Get out of my way, ugly!" Claire shouted fiercely. Claire did not hit the monster with the shield. She held it perfectly flat, aiming the
Chapter 456
The ice claws tore deeply across Landon’s left arm. Landon roared in absolute agony. The claws did not just cut his skin. They pumped freezing, toxic dead-god magic directly into his blood. His arm instantly went completely numb. The wound smoked with purple light. Landon stumbled backward, holding his bleeding arm. "Landon!" Kade yelled. Kade pulled his two sharp combat knives. He sprinted forward, diving bravely at the monster. Kade stabbed his knives violently into the monster's back.The knives sank deep into the gray flesh. But the monster did not feel any pain. It did not even bleed. The undead Vane spun around insanely fast. It backhanded Kade with its heavy, metal-plated arm. The heavy blow struck Kade directly in the ribs. Kade was thrown violently through the air. He crashed heavily against the hard metal wall of the hallway. He slid down to the floor, gasping for air, coughing up a splash of bright red blood. "Kade is down!" Marcus roared in fury. Marcus stepped fo
