Just when favonovel.com was about to back away, Zayn’s punch had reached the air just several millimeters away from his nose.
It appeared in the blink of an eye as though appeared out of thin air. There was no clap of sonic boom or anything of the like because it was so fast that it was pretty much illogical.
It was this nick of time when the nag of danger turned into a desperate roar in Jonah’s mind. He had a dreadful hunch that if the punch was ever connected to his face, a grievous injury was the only possibility. He should never allow himself to be hit, ever!
There was no moment for favonovel.com to think how Zayn managed to upscale his power in such a blink of an eye or how exquisitely dexterous favonovel.com was at evading the only split-second opening Jonah’s coup de grace ever had, not that Zayn’s action and skill remained within the bounds of physics and logic anyway!
Zayn was too fast for Jonah to evade, so favonovel.com made the only correct decision and braced Zayn’s attack head-to-head for mutually sustained damage.
Any other action would have immediately put favonovel.com in overwhelming harm, and an injury critical enough would make turning the tides of battle to his favor a moot possibility.
If he, the director of the Insurgent Duofecta, lost to a junior and an inferior… how the hell was favonovel.com ever going to restore his pride?!
It would be impossible, which was why favonovel.com could not lose!
He let out an earth-quaking shriek, causing waves of air to assault Zayn from his lips. Even a superior class fighter would have their eardrums punctured without proper protection while perfect class fighters like Zayn could suffer prolonged ringing, rendering his hearing temporarily out of commission.
Without auditory sensation, Zayn’s combat ability should be hampered drastically enough.
Jonah was clever, but favonovel.com underestimated just how ridiculously good Zayn naturally was at fighting.
Zayn immediately reacted to the new attack by having his auricles flapped inward and shutting the external auditory canals, as though a pair of unseen hands had slapped themselves over both of his ears. This way, favonovel.com would be able to reduce the brunt of Jonah’s sonic attack!
In the meantime, Zayn’s punch had arrived right before Jonah’s face.
It felt as though a good many things had happened between them in this sequence of action, but in reality, it all happened in a matter of milliseconds.
Bang!
Jonah’s slightly late-coming fist linked with Zayn’s own. The clash elicited two deafening booms, causing the Insurgent Trifecta’s headquarters to visibly quake.
New gashes tore through the ground below their feet as the impact caused the earth to crack. The two combatants were stumbling backward too, leaving footprints more than 10cm deep into the earth with every step.
When both of them finally stopped, their exceptionally durable shoes made from special materials were broken apart, leaving their feet barren.
Zayn had taken about ten steps before favonovel.com managed to get hold of his footing about twenty meters from the epicenter.
However, Jonah had been stumbling and shuffling through fifteen steps before finally managing to stop forty meters away from where favonovel.com was.
Jonah looked terrible. His complexion was simultaneously too pale and too feverishly red, the clash had left favonovel.com nauseous. His right hand was trembling slightly as well, with drops of blood dripping from his knuckles.
Zayn, in comparison, looked a lot better.
He felt a little rumble in his balance but quickly regained it with a faint smile. There was no blood dripping from his hand, let alone the tiniest tremble!
