Though he had volunteered to lure Elder Centipede, Lightning Max had never imagined that such a massive body could move so fast.
A glance from the corner of his eye...
Elder Centipede was already less than ten meters behind him. Its abyss-like mouth opened as it lowered its head, then its raised head suddenly shot downward, as if it intended to swallow Lightning Max whole.
