In the depths of the darkness, Zeba stood concealed, completely astounded!

Little did she expect that the formidable figure standing before her, dressed in black, was none other than Bruce Wade’s son!

Meanwhile, Rose remained oblivious to the presence of a hidden master, expertly masking their aura, only ten feet away in the shadows. His undivided attention focused on Gideon, who appeared before him in a state of panic and desperation, evoking not an ounce of sympathy within Rose’s heart.

Fixing his gaze on Gideon, he shouted once again, “Prepare for thunder!”

A deafening boom resounded as lightning tore through the heavens, hurtling downward in a blazing descent!

The thunderbolt struck with unerring accuracy, reducing Gideon’s right hand to charred remains, emitting an aroma reminiscent of a barbecue, a smell that sent chills down his spine.

Gideon reflexively flicked his wrist, only for his charred hand to detach and fall to the ground.

Overwhelmed with shock and terror, Gideon’s eyes met Rose’s, as if peering into the eyes of Hades, the ruler of the underworld!

Rose’s eyes blazed like torches as he regarded Gideon’s fearful countenance. In a cold, menacing tone, he uttered, “Do not be alarmed. Consider this a mere appetizer. In the past, I dismembered a fool who lacked foresight, tearing him apart piece by piece. Even today, I relish the thought of dealing with those who deserve death in such a manner! So, prepare yourself for an unforgettable experience!”

Gideon, both shocked and terrified, involuntarily tightened his grip on the Thunderbolt with his remaining left hand. He sought to activate its power once again, for he had witnessed its destructive

force, surpassing the might of any thunder summoned by Anderson. If he could retaliate and summon a thunderbolt in the final moment, victory might be within his grasp!

Observing Gideon clutching the Thunderbolt, Rose sneered and declared, “Save yourself the trouble. Truth be told, I specially crafted the Thunderbolt in your hand just for you. While undeniably potent, it possesses one major flaw—it can be used only once.”

“What?!” Gideon widened his bloodshot eyes and blurted out, “You crafted the Thunderbolt in my hand?!”

“Yes,” Rose replied with a smile. “I bestowed it upon Zachary after I finished forging it. I instructed Zachary to wait for you at the antique street, and you, my friend, fell right into the trap.”
