The cosmic Zerg was entirely reduced, leaving behind only its outer shell. Its body had been consumed from the inside out. I watched as the massive exoskeleton collapsed to the ground, and the moment this became clear to everyone, the movements of the Zergs grew even more berserk. Noticing this, Cookie quickly brought me back to the barrier.
Moving at incredible speed, his body surged with strength, and his powerful limbs destroyed any creature in his path with the raw force of a mythical beast. He safely returned me inside the barrier.
Landing within the safety of the barrier, still exhausted, I calmly activated my Odin's Eye to analyze the battlefield. The Duke, like the others, had increased his movements to an utterly destructive level. His body had reverted to a semi-human, semi-Zerg state, emanating dense corrupt energy—both mental and physical—as he launched into a frenzied assault.
