The sickening sound of roasting fills the air, mingling with the scent of charred flesh in the hall. The leader bursts into loud laughter, then rises with cold eyes, gazing into the darkness where Leroy&#39;s voice originates.<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n\n<p style=\"direction:ltr\"><span style=\"font-size:24px\"><span style=\"font-family:Arial,&quot;sans-serif&quot;\"><span style=\"font-family:&quot;Tahoma&quot;,&quot;sans-serif&quot;\"><span style=\"color:#374151\">Leroy appears suddenly in the circle of light, maintaining a few meters of distance from the leader. They cautiously circle each other, carefully gauging each other&#39;s prowess. Leroy, a towering man, appears diminutive compared to the colossal stature of the android leader. While the leader is little more than a mighty, yet unwise creature, whereas Leroy exudes sharpness and intelligence.<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n\n<p style=\"direction:ltr; text-align:center\">&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n<p style=\"direction:ltr; text-align:center\"><span style=\"font-size:24px\"><span style=\"font-family:Tahoma,&quot;sans-serif&quot;\"><strong><u>LEADER<\/u><\/strong><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n\n<p style=\"direction:ltr; margin-left:48px; margin-right:48px\"><span style=\"font-size:24px\"><span style=\"font-family:Tahoma,&quot;sans-serif&quot;\">Come, I will tear you apart with my bare hands.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n\n<p style=\"direction:ltr; margin-left:48px; margin-right:48px\">&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n<p style=\"direction:ltr\"><span style=\"font-size:24px\"><span style=\"font-family:Arial,&quot;sans-serif&quot;\"><span style=\"font-family:&quot;Tahoma&quot;,&quot;sans-serif&quot;\"><span style=\"color:#374151\">The leader advances toward Leroy, extending his hands. Tom and Lara stand paralyzed, their breath caught in their throats. Their destiny is dependent on Leroy&#39;s actions. The leader&#39;s hands, aimed at seizing Leroy&#39;s neck, find nothing but empty space. Leroy moves with astonishing swiftness, and the leader suddenly discovers that Leroy is behind him. A forceful blow lands on the back of the leader&#39;s neck, a strike that would have been fatal for anyone else. Yet, the leader merely shakes his head, attempting to regain his composure, and turns ponderously towards Leroy. Leroy retreats and delivers a powerful, circular kick to the giant&#39;s knee, shattering his kneecap. A roar of agony escapes the leader&#39;s lips, but he remains standing, relying on his good leg, still embodying the essence of a warrior, albeit with diminished mobility.<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n\n<p style=\"direction:ltr\"><span style=\"font-size:24px\"><span style=\"font-family:Arial,&quot;sans-serif&quot;\"><span style=\"font-family:&quot;Tahoma&quot;,&quot;sans-serif&quot;\"><span style=\"color:#374151\">Leroy continues circling the leader, who struggles on his healthy leg to face him. The leader produces a wicked knife from his jumpsuit. His face contorts with hatred, and his eyes burn with fury. Leroy&#39;s terrifying kick strikes the giant&#39;s groin without warning, causing him to stumble like a drunkard trying to maintain balance. Like a striking snake, Leroy&#39;s hand swiftly reaches for the giant leader&#39;s exposed eyes, inflicting serious injury. Instinctively, the blinded giant swings his knife in a circular motion, aiming to slash at Leroy, but he adeptly maneuvers underneath the giant&#39;s arm as it is thrown forward. Now the leader drops the knife while his hands grip the sockets of his empty, blood-soaked eyes. Slowly, like a falling tree, the leader collapses to his knees. When his broken knee crashes against the ground, he lets out a harrowing scream of agony, eventually collapsing onto his side. Leroy retrieves the discarded knife from the floor, approaches the leader, and swiftly slits his throat. A stream of blood gushes from the dying giant&#39;s throat. Leroy retrieves the discarded knife from the floor, approaches the leader, and swiftly slits his throat. A stream of blood gushes from the dying giant&#39;s throat. The campfire light that had grown earlier due to the burning of the android&#39;s head, which was cast into the fire. Leroy viciously grabs the giant&#39;s jumpsuit from the back of his neck and drags his lifeless body into the fire, submerging his head among the coals. Initially, his head and shoulders are consumed by the flames, but within a minute, the giant leader&#39;s clothes catch fire, and his face vanishes into the engulfing blaze.<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n\n<p style=\"direction:ltr; text-align:center\">&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n<p style=\"direction:ltr; text-align:center\"><span style=\"font-size:24px\"><span style=\"font-family:Tahoma,&quot;sans-serif&quot;\"><strong><u>LEROY<\/u><\/strong><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n\n<p style=\"direction:ltr; margin-left:48px; margin-right:48px\"><span style=\"font-size:24px\"><span style=\"font-family:Tahoma,&quot;sans-serif&quot;\">Does anyone else wish to challenge me for leadership?<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n\n<p style=\"direction:ltr; margin-left:48px; margin-right:48px\">&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n<p style=\"direction:ltr\"><span style=\"font-size:24px\"><span style=\"font-family:Arial,&quot;sans-serif&quot;\"><span style=\"font-family:&quot;Tahoma&quot;,&quot;sans-serif&quot;\"><span style=\"color:#374151\">Silence ensues.
