THE STRONGEST NEXULYTE

The red light that served as the eye of the golem locked on Karin's figure as it dashed toward her again without making a single sound, one might even think that it was an illusion because of how it moved like a shadow.

Karin gritted her teeth and prepared herself; immediately, the golem reached her, and it punched out with both hands.

Karin rolled on the ground and dodged to the side as two large rock fists smashed into the blood wall behind her with great momentum.

Karin didn't roll far and immediately jumped to her feet before swinging her mallet at the body of the golem with all her might.

BAM!

The mallet smashed into the side of the Gavelorn ruthlessly, cracking its sand armor and causing sand and pieces of rocks to fly out.

A roar rang out as the golem was pushed to the side, its feet creating a trench of quake sand on the ground.

"One…more," Karin mumbled; she was having difficulty breathing, but her focused eyes remained locked on the figure of the golem that was already charging at her again.

Its huge hand punched at her face; Karin bent her waist and lowered her upper body backward, letting the hand of the golem pass above her.

Still in that form, she used her mallet as a hook to pull herself by throwing it to the side while still holding onto it.

The instant her feet touched the ground, she rotated and sent her mallet smashing down on the head of the golem from above, but a cold, stony grip suddenly enclosed her neck and harm that was holding the mallet.

The Gavelorn gripped Karin by the neck while holding her arm up in the air before slamming her on the blood wall.

"Gahhh"

Karin screamed in pain; blood gushed out from her mouth and nose, and her eyes widened; her entire body was in pain, and she felt like she might have injured her lungs.

Her eyes glared at the golem that was staring back at her with its red eye, its grip around her neck slowly tightened.

Karin spat another mouthful of blood that fell on the arm of the golem, she was feeling suffocated as she wasn't able to breathe anymore; despite this, a small smirk slowly crept up her trembling lips.

"Cheek…mate"

She managed to squeeze out those words before sending the last amount of Nexus energy into her mallet before letting go.

The mallet suddenly burst out with a fiery wave of Nexus energy and grew bigger in size, easily turning five times bigger than before; it was now bigger than the Gavelorn!

The head of the golem swiftly turned to look up at the sudden burst of Nexus energy that attracted its attention but it was too late as the mallet fell on its head the very next moment.

BOOM!!!

As if a meteorite had landed on the golem, it was squashed to the ground by the enormous mallet, and a strong shockwave spread out and knocked Karin flying away.

She landed several meters away from where the mallet and the golem were and hit her back on the ground; with uneasiness still hugging her heart, she got up on all fours and crawled toward her mallet.

Only after seeing the pieces of rocks and sand lying motionless under her mallet did she finally let out a sigh of relief and dropped to the ground on her back.

Her face stared at the red mist above the labyrinth as she breathed heavily, her well-sized chest rising and falling with each breath she took.

She didn't care about anything else at the moment, all she wanted to do was to breathe. Her Nexus chamber was completely empty, and the labyrinth would shift in a bit more than half an hour; she might not survive if she got shifted to where another monster was as her body was too battered to go another round.

"I'll just stay like this for a while. Hopefully, I won't die from the next shift," Karin said while staring at the red mist, tears silently rolling down the corner of her eyes while blood covered the lower part of her face. Stay updated with empire

….

At the same time on another side of the labyrinth.

Glen could be seen battling a monster that was just as tall as he was.

This monster had the body of a lion but its skin was pitch black, its lion head had a ring of fire circling around it, and on its back were large bird wings.

It was a Chimera of dread!

It had this name because it was about to inflict fear on its target; it would make the target think of their biggest fear, which would often get them distracted.

Unfortunately for it, its opponent was Glen.

When it had used this ability on Glen, what Glen had seen wasn't something that would cause it to feel fearful or distracted.

What Glen had seen was a massive beast stepping on his father, killing him in a single stomp. This was what he had imagined from what his mother and little sister had told him, although they had said that it was the human who crashed into their house, Glen understood that it was the monster that had sent him flying when he was trying to save the people of the outskirts.

For this reason, Glen had transferred all of the blame for his father's death to the monster, filling him with hatred for creatures from the dreamscape and thus the reason he had seen such a scene after the Chimera of dread used its ability on him.

But the scene didn't end there, in the scene, Glen saw the giant monster turning to his mother and sister before jumping towards them.

This was where Glen had gone mad with rage. Instead of being terrified by fear as the monster had hoped for, he had instead exploded with fury.

Glen immediately summoned his snake and assumed his half-transformation before going on a rampage.

"Damned brat! What the hell is wrong with you!" A thunderous beastly voice roared angrily.

Ah, yes. Another thing, the Chimera of dread was capable of speech.

"Shut up!" Glen shouted back before disappearing into a white flicker and appearing right in front of the monster, his fist that was covered in white snake scales already stretched out.

BOOM!

The punch landed on the face of the beast mercilessly and sent it stumbling back by dozens of steps, sadly, he didn't manage to deal any damage.

The body of the beast was just too tough.

"You can't hurt me, give up; let's make a truce!" The beast roared again. It was angry and helpless.

What sort of Human demon was this? It had only used its ability on the fellow but the human had turned into a mad dog instead of trembling from fear.

Although the human was unable to hurt it even after attacking countless times, it was just too fast for the beast to keep up with; the current scene looked like it was being bullied by a human who was purposely beating it up.

How vexing!

"I said, shut up!" Glen roared back and vanished into a white line again that shot at the beast.

BAM!

BAM!

BAM!

BAM!

Disappearing like a ghost, Glen appeared around the beast at the same time while punching it all over.

His speed was so fast that it looked like there were multiple Glen.

Despite this, Glen was feeling desperate. He knew that the monster would certainly get revenge after he stopped attacking it but he was unable to hurt the beast.

As if feeling his distress, Glen got a feeling in his mind.

It wasn't from him, the feeling was from his white snake!

Suddenly, a large pointy scale poked out from his knuckles just when he was about to punch the beast again.

Ptui!!

The sharp scale stabbed into the body of the monster and drew out a line of blood.

The beast roared in pain and shock, Glen was equally shocked.

"I can do that?"
