As they fought to escape, desperate to save their own lives, Alex calmly waved his hand.

A sudden, crushing aura exploded from him, engulfing the leeing thugs.

It was as if gravity itself had multiplied.

The thugs on the ground thought for sure Alex would be taken down.

But just as the bullets closed in, they stopped, hanging in mid-air just centimeters from his body, frozen in place as though the laws of physics no longer applied.

The thugs gasped.
