461 Max on rampage [3]

Thud!

The woman shuddered violently, and she fell to her knees, saying, "Y-Yes. He… he asked us. Please don't kill—"

"Thanks for telling me." Max nodded. "In return, I'll give you a painless death."

Saying this, he reached out his hand and grabbed her neck. Just as he was about to twist it, a loud shout sounded out from deep within in the hall.

"DON'T YOU DARE!"

"Mm?" Max paused and turned to look at who was coming out this time. He saw a man — who seemed to be in his thirties, had a good-looking face, a confident and upright gait and was garbed in the disciplinary hall Elders' uniform, the same as the one pot-bellied Elder had — walking toward him with slow steps.

But strangely enough, even though it looked like he was walking slowly, his every step would bring him tens of meters forward. It was as if space was warping around him, helping him travel faster.
