A massive explosion shook the ground and the air around everyone. Alex was taken aback by the explosion as there should have been none. What there should have been was a burst of blood or a teleportation aura.
The fact that he sensed neither was alarming.
He quickly moved back, readying himself for another attack, but none came. When the dust settled, Alex saw the man standing where he was, fully stunned. Next to him was a bright golden necklace that had stopped the attack.
The man hadn't used the necklace at all. It was a defensive treasure that worked on its own. That was the reason why the man was stunned as he had realized that without the treasure, he would've likely been teleported out.
"I…" the man spoke but was at a loss for words. The attack just now had stunned him a little too much.
Alex ignored the man's stunned expression and readied his sword for another attack.
