"This guy can actually devour?"
As the explosion's shockwave dissipated, Alex saw that while the hobgoblin king was not visibly injured, he was utterly exhausted and unable to continue fighting. The hobgoblin king had intended to go down with Thalor, but the effect was less than ideal.

During the explosion, his chest had even absorbed some of the energy. His ability was undeniably terrifying.

Xiao Mu was taken aback. Since when did his sister become so good at flattery?
