Maxwell wanted to wake up!
He desperately tried to wake up but his body just wouldn't listen.
The suppression from Bloodfiend almost destroyed his fleshly body. Only when Bloodfiend's primordial spirit died did his body feel like it had become free again. But during the whole process, his body felt like a piece of rock sinking from a height of thousands of meters and was extremely uncomfortable.
His consciousness was awake…
But his fleshly body couldn't handle it. No matter how hard he tried, he just couldn't wake his body up.
Therefore…
He could only send out his thoughts into John's mind so that he would bring him to the ancient huge devil.
Maxwell clearly heard everything when the group was talking and he was in agreement – no matter what, Blindman Dale cannot die. He became like this to save Brenda and because he was Maxwell's brother.
They were brothers. There is no need for further explanations.
