Nelson was blasted several yards away and slammed into a concrete pillar. The room shook violently for a moment before he crashed to the ground. He coughed up a mouthful of blood.
“What the…” Benjamin’s eyes widened in shock and disbelief.
As a divine grandmaster himself, being made to cough up blood by Sebastian’s single punch was beyond terrifying.
Rainey was also stunned. She knew Sebastian was a divine grandmaster, yet he had only recently entered the Divine Realm. On the other hand, Nelson had been a divine grandmaster for a long time. If she hadn’t seen it with her own eyes, it would be truly
unbelievable.
“Ha, you took my punch and you’re still standing? Impressive,” Sebastian taunted.
Upon hearing this, Nelson coughed up another mouthful of blood, his face pale with evident signs of serious internal injury.
“Who are you? How can you be this strong?” Nelson demanded angrily and incredulously.
Sebastian flashed a brilliant smile. “You’ll find out soon enough. Call Merlin over here. I permit you to team up against me.”
Benjamin was astonished. Sebastian had casually called out Merlin’s name and knew he was in his house.
Though Nelson was equally surprised, he didn’t dwell on it and urgently shouted, “Merlin, come quickly and help me!”
Despite his severe injuries, Nelson’s voice resonated with immense power. As a divine grandmaster, it effortlessly carried across not only the Lloyd residence but for miles around. However, his shouting was unnecessary. The earlier commotion had already alerted Merlin.
Right as Nelson finished speaking, Merlin appeared at the doorway, accompanied by a young woman-Elena.
“Mr. Hyde, what on earth happened here?” Merlin was visibly shocked to see Nelson pale with blood on his lips.
“I was ambushed by this old bastard. We need to team up and take him down,” Nelson growled fiercely.
Nelson glanced at Sebastian, sensing a familiarity but unable to recall where they had crossed paths before.
“I’m Merlin, the head of Novastar Organization. May I have the pleasure of knowing your name?” Merlin asked cautiously.
Sebastian’s ability to injure Nelson indicated considerable strength. Merlin wouldn’t rush into action without first understanding his opponent’s background.
“My name isn’t important. What matters is whether you want to live or die,” Sebastian replied with a smirk.
Merlin’s anger flared instantly. “You’re quite audacious. I’m not someone to be trifled with.”
“So, you choose death, then?” Sebastian sneered.
Merlin was shocked and enraged, but he remained composed. As Sebastian grew more aggressive, Merlin grew more cautious.
“Mr. Hyde, what’s going on here?” Merlin inquired.
“Forget that for now. Let’s team up and take him down,” Nelson said fiercely.
Sebastian smirked and released Rainey’s bindings with a wave of his hand.
Rainey quickly untied the ropes from her feet and positioned herself behind Sebastian.
Having witnessed Sebastian’s power firsthand, she felt an unprecedented sense of security standing behind him.
Sebastian stood confidently and flashed a smile. “This is your final opportunity to choose- life or death?”
