Dexter pressed on, his blade striking with relentless precision. The shadows surrounding Axton recoiled, but the warlord’s power didn’t wane. Instead, his gaze darkened with fury, his fingers curling as he summoned more shadows from the depths of the factory. They spiraled around him, thicker and more oppressive than before, forming an almost tangible barrier."You're stronger than I anticipated," Axton sneered, his voice laced with disdain. "But strength alone won’t be enough."Dexter felt a chill at Axton’s words, yet he stood his ground, his grip on the Seal unwavering. "Maybe not," he replied, "but I have something you'll never have—people who believe in me. And we’re not backing down."With that, he nodded toward his teammates. Helix, Orion, and Raven rallied beside him, their determination evident in their eyes. Together, they launched into an assault, each attacking in perfect sync.

As the impact reverberated through the air, Axton stumbled back, shock and anger etched across his features. Dexter pressed the advantage, charging forward relentlessly. The shadows around Axton writhed in fury, but they were no match for the power of the Seal, which radiated an intense light that seemed to burn away the darkness.“You think you can defeat me with that pathetic weapon?” Axton sneered, his confidence returning as he regained his footing. “I am the master of shadows! You are merely a flickering flame destined to be snuffed out!”Dexter gritted his teeth, refusing to back down. “You underestimate the power of those you seek to control! We won’t let you spread your darkness any further!”As he lunged again, the shadows coalesced into more solid forms, blocking his path. A wave of shadowy figures surged toward him, seeking to overwhelm him. Dexter fought them off, each strike fueled by his resolve to protect his friends and the city from Axton's tyranny.“Dexter, watch out

The force of Dexter's strike sent Axton staggering back, but he quickly regained his balance, his eyes narrowing in fury. “You dare challenge me?” he roared, shadows swirling ominously around him, ready to strike back. The room was filled with the sounds of battle—clashing metal, cries of pain, and the hissing whispers of the shadows as they converged on Dexter and his friends.“Stay together!” Dexter shouted, trying to keep his team close. They had to focus on Axton; defeating him was the key to breaking the hold the shadows had over the room. As he readied himself for another attack, Dexter could feel the energy from the Seal pulsing through him, an electric connection that fueled his strength and resolve.Raven and Helix fought side by side, darting in and out of the shadows, creating openings for Dexter to exploit. “Keep him distracted!” Dexter called out, shifting his stance and preparing for another assault. He could see Axton gathering darkness around him, the shadows morphing

The force of the impact sent Axton stumbling back, his grip on the shadows faltering momentarily. Dexter seized the opportunity, pushing forward with renewed vigor, ready to bring an end to this confrontation.Around them, the battle raged on.

I have only begun to unleash my true power!” With that, he raised his arms, summoning a swirling vortex of shadows that began to swirl around him, dark and menacing. The shadows twisted

They rummaged through the remnants of the gathering, searching for anything Axton staggered back from Dexter’s strike, the light of the Seal flickering as it connected with his dark energy. The shadows around him shrieked in protest, momentarily dispersing as the light forced its way through. Dexter felt a surge of adrenaline, knowing that this was their chance to turn the tide of the battle.“You think a little light can defeat me?” Axton spat, his voice dripping with venom.
