Suddenly, Mason's voice trailed off as he heard something disturbing...
Countless harrowing, horrific screeches echoed loudly from every direction around them in the dark expanse. The haunting sound vibrated through the empty void, carrying an unbearable weight of pure, unadulterated malice.
Axel stomped his foot heavily onto the unseen floor of the void, propelling himself backwards by hundreds of meters in a single swift movement to create distance.
Before Mason could even fully process the sudden retreat, more than a thousand unimaginably grotesque void creatures attacked and pounced on Mason Vex all at once.
They lunged from the pitch darkness like a tide of starving beasts, their writhing limbs and jagged jaws tearing through the black air.
The Vex powerhouse, acting on sheer survival instinct in the very last instant, managed to let out a burst of multidirectional spell attacks aimed directly at the horrid creatures coming for his dear life.
