I'll Surpass Them

Confused, Zeus destroyed the shadow.

At the same time, a hand came out of Neo's shadow and pulled him into the shadows.

Zeus stared at the spot from where Neo had disappeared.

"It must be his partner who saved him."

Zeus was about to chase after Neo when suddenly Apollo coughed blood.

He decided to give proper treatment to Apollo before hunting down Neo and Jack.

…

Neo appeared beneath a giant tree.

His body was on the verge of falling apart.

His head was barely clinging to his neck, and his Divine Energy reserves were about to hit rock bottom.

The battle with Apollo did a number on him.

Facing Zeus after that only made things worse.

Neo looked around and noticed an undead before him.

The undead had used Shadow Jump to carry him away from Zeus.

"Did Jack command you to save me if I was in danger?"

The skeleton nodded. It crouched and dug its bony hands into Neo's pocket.
