As the enemy retreated, the wounded Energy Beings fought over the ability to absorb the lesser beings that had been created, somewhat healing themselves as the ones created from Max's power instinctively returned to him with a flare of absorbed power.
This power converted much more smoothly, and Max felt his body change a little bit more, but he didn't fully absorb the power this time. Some of it seemed to be held in a reserve, ready to be used again the way that he had directed it into his weapons during the fight.
That was the only effective way to fight a Greater Energy Being. If you coated yourself in their energy, you could turn it against them and cause much greater damage than any conventional weapon had managed so far.
One Disintegrator and a sword had done as much damage as the entire team of Colony Ships had done during the battle, lending credence to the legends that the God Class Mecha were a terrifying sight to behold in a fight.
