Bang! Bang! Bang! Bullets flew in all directions, as more and more people stepped out from the door to shoot at the sons of bitches who dared escape their Casino.What a drag. Leorio rolled to the side, behind an old overturned, rusted truck with its parts burrows under the ground and its skeleton wheel facing the skies.The truck has been here for ages and no one ever thought of taking it away.There were old bullet holes in it, and because of Leorio, new bullet holes poured on the poor broken-down body like crazy.Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang! Leorio raised his head, putting 2 hands on the rusted vehicle and shooting away like crazy. "Bloody hell, Eragon, just get to the fucking van already!" "I'm on it, I'm on it, asshole!"Bang! Bang! "Maybe if you'd like down a bit, my fucking legs will move faster." Bang! Bang! "Hey guys… we got company at 9 O'clock." Bang! Bang! Leorio and Eragon, who had just shot down a driver and were about to enter the van, saw a window hastily open on t
In the year RE-500, a remarkable discovery was made – The Keltar potion.Humans were injected with this unique formula that could change and mutate their genes, giving them stronger bodies and longer lifespans.Humans could now live to 380~400 years old.The results were spectacular. At the age of 50, people still looked like they were in their late teen years of 17 or 18.This was a big advancement.It was discovered that a person born could grow up till the age of 16 before looking ultimately the same for the following decades, aging slowly until they died.This was why 16 was the adult age in the New Age.…[Location]Blue Sails Planet, Year RE-4000.Oven Country, Supreme Honey City..The city of Honeycomb was a beautiful region, with every plant having an exterior texture resembling a honeycomb.The city was known to have the purest grade of honey and nectarine in the entirety of Blue Sails. But today, many were not gathered to admire the stunning city sites.The sun was up, and
One by one, those before Bain were judged. And soon, it was his turn."Next!"The front guard fiercely nudged him forward, letting him stand on a massive white square below his feet. Looking around, Bain thought this should be the perfect position for all cameras to capture him."Former Military Recruit, Bain Ratnier, age 16…" The judge momentarily paused, arousing the curiosity of many watching.The judge cleared his throat, reading the charges with a stoic expression."Bain Ratnier, recruited to the army 5 and a half months ago. Charged with not only maliciously killing your Supervisor during your first outdoor training but also killing the other 449 in your camp!"He didn't do it.Bain was overwhelmed, thinking of that fateful day.In Oven Country, after 3 months of service, new military recruits would join light-weighted or laissez-faire missions that required little to no effort. It was practically 99% risk-free and was only there first to teach them how to force out in various c
The Absolutes… They were the most powerful organization in the world that emerged for no other reason than to fight and put order into the world.They symbolize justice and the ones many have blind faith in. But today, the darkness hovering within them has become more apparent to a few.However, the unsighted remained blinded.*********"Cheers to the Absolute Court!""Cheers!""Hooray! Hooray!... The Absolute Court has done it again!!!"(^0^)Oven country was bubbling while watching the Absolute court dish out the many verdicts.People cheered and celebrated, thanking the Court for bringing justice into the world.Some victims' families took interviews, putting in their good words and showing gratitude for it all.Yes…Oven country was going wild with glee. And in a very simple holding, a young man watched the very protected Tv. — Protected was the word.The Tv was placed in a unique see-through casing as tough as several pounds of steel and embedded into the wall. Several tiny holes
In the vast white space, many prisoners secretly observed their surroundings and one another from the corners of their eyes.With narrowed eyes, they gazed at all angles. They couldn't find any hidden devices but knew they were being watched.Soon, their eyes fell on the guards and those in lab coats, trying to pick out as much information as they could.Smart people already knew the battle had begun.This was also a battlefield. Everyone was a potential enemy to themselves. And unbeknownst to Bain, many had been sizing him up from the moment he was strapped in."Line Up!"The order was given. And in full nudity, some prisoners strolled with slight grins, others moved provocatively, and some acted like perfect nobles, with auras affirming their superior beliefs.Just within this single moment, their actions already gave off a little about their personalities. Although for some others, it was hard for the guards to determine what personas they had.Some were too tricky to read.Cold.B
~Brrrmmm~~~The aircraft flew across the waters at a steady pace. And throughout the flight, no one was permitted to stand. Suppose you feel like taking a piss, too bad. Do it in your pants!The aircraft danced chaotically until Bain, and the others felt its abrupt descent.Wow!Those flying the aircraft didn't even tell them to brace themselves.The aircraft descended at an incredible speed, giving the illusion they were about to crash. And while in this illusionary state, a bright light quickly engulfed the scene.It was now that many realized the walls they were leaning on were see-through. And now with the outer surface of the ship moving upward like a shuttered window, many could see the outside world via the transparent walls they were leaning against."Look! That's the famous 'Cotton Cloud' Waters surrounding the Mainland!" Someone exclaimed.Bain knew a thing or 2 about these Cotton Cloud waters.In this world called Blue Sails, the waters were vastly different depending on wh
In the overly massive Control room, more than 900 men and women sat or stood by, watching the chaotic scenes via the monitors.The room was vast, with spring ceilings of open space 3 stories high.The Space was Hexagonal, with its front 3 out of 6 sides having nothing transparent wall screens to see the outside world while flying.The back wall had several elevators and doors leading into the space, while the last 2 side walls were floor-to-ceiling monitors showing hundreds of images.The Captain smoked his pipe, looking at the many images projected on the wall monitors. "There... Enlarge.""Yes, Captain,'' replied one of the men, enlarging the image as instructed.Seeing it, the Captain smacked his belly in delight. "Look at how these scallywags run about. Fear, greed for survival, thrilled, expectation, excitement... It's all on their faces!"The Captain seemed to be paying attention to a few. These should be the ones with the highest kill counts this time. Soon, Bain's image was en
Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang!All remaining prisoners were shot dead.The Captain tugged on the tip of his hat, masking the discerning trace of malice in his eyes. And very subtly, he headed into his office space overseeing the Control.Click.He locked the door and reached for the phone on his desk.[Is it done?] A rich but cold voice sounded out from the other end."Affirmative, sir... The kid is off the ship. Now, he's Mainland property."[And what about the rat?]The Captain thought of one of the prisoners he shot during the mass shooting.During the final shooting round, they killed the last few remaining prisoners aboard. But that wasn't when he killed the rat.During the first shooting round, he and his crew targeted non-lethal body parts, causing many of the prisoners to leave the ship hastily. But amidst the chaos, he killed the rat before the bastard could make it out of the aircraft. Even the crew members didn't know of his actions.To keep the matter confidential, he had to limi
Bang! Bang! Bang! Bullets flew in all directions, as more and more people stepped out from the door to shoot at the sons of bitches who dared escape their Casino.What a drag. Leorio rolled to the side, behind an old overturned, rusted truck with its parts burrows under the ground and its skeleton wheel facing the skies.The truck has been here for ages and no one ever thought of taking it away.There were old bullet holes in it, and because of Leorio, new bullet holes poured on the poor broken-down body like crazy.Bang!

Tap. The trio jumped down from the vents, with Leorio grumbling to the skies. Way to go asshole! Now, they're only left with 3 fucking minutes to go.Can you believe that guy? Sure, the news was thrilling, but they were at a fucking crossroads here and had no time for stories.Standing by the door, Bain double-checked the dagger hidden under his sleeves. It was a dagger from the Fatso they left in the room. He also grabbed a few others from those Eragon killed. Leorio looked at Gray again, a hidden perplexity brooding in his mind. It was odd. He labeled Gray as strange in his mind. "You said you killed before?" "Hmhm," Gray nodded. "I killed a person in Mainland." "And you had no reaction?" Gray scratches his head in confusion, "Should I?" "_"Odd.Eragon, who heard this, also felt Gray was odd. He had Innocence, but would an ordinary person treat a pile of courses like they were daisies? "Gray Ratnier… you sure are one weird kid…. It's clear," Leorio moved his ears away
A few minutes later, Eragon was on all fours with veins popping from his neck when going over what just happened to him right now. It had already been a few minutes in their company but Eragon had to admit he felt the need to throttle the one leading them through the vent. "Run it through me one more time. Just now exactly did you know my plans?"As a person who prides himself on being one of the smartest in this hell hole, don't they know that their actions alone had slapped him in the face? He wasn't arrogantly saying he was the most intelligent man in the Mainland. But okay, can you at least give him some credit for evading several forces here and there? Do you think it's easy to know his plans and counterattack them without him realizing it? Eragon was annoyed, knowing he had walked into a trap. Seeing as the duo didn't want to give him a straight answer, he couldn't help rolling his eyes in annoyance. "Can you at least tell me who you belong to?"What organization was he
Dammit!The unit leader's eyes turned red with rage when he understood his dilemma.Who was it that betrayed them?"No use thinking so much." The target chuckled, slowly rising to his feet once more. "Well, my time here is done. And according to your watch, you only have 5 seconds left...How pitiful."WHAT?The leader and the others screamed in their bellies in fear, trying their best to reach the target and take him with them when they met their maker.Like a spell, after the target's cursed words, their breathing grew 10 times heavier and their chests suddenly grew stiff.Like fish out of water, they struggled for air as much as they could to no avail. But it was no use. Death was imminent.1, 2, 3... Dead. A dreadful silence now engulfed the scene with the men and women no longer moving.The target shrugged, no longer concerning himself with the dead bodies in the room.Baahahahahahah~He laughed when looking at the disc in his hand. Great! He was finally able to take his disc b
They had no more time to waste.dropping to the floor, Leorio carefully used 2 pins from the fat man's pockets and touched several parts as though he were working under a car."It's done," Leorio commented, dusting off his body as he took to his feet.Bain seemed to know what he wanted to do, already putting his hands on the bed's headrest.With the signal from Leorio, Bain pulled the headrest as slowly as he could."That's good enough for now. Any more and we'll be alerting the guards again."Yeah," Bain said, quickly taking his hands off the headrest.On another close inspection, he saw an open vent finally revealed.So that's it!Could it be the escape vent was there for the coroners in case something truly out of control happened?'I see. So its design is the same as an emergency door, another way for them to leave the room. After all, there might be a situation where the enemy is just outside their door trying to bring in.'Bain wasn't so sure about where the hidden passage led to
The world was never fair and equal from the start. Slow were the bottom feeders and above stops those meant to trample on them. In an enormous space filled with old-fashioned computers and equipment, several people punched their keyboards tirelessly. Some were dogs and others "Ma'am." An expressionless scar-face man spoke. "I think you should take a look at this.""Oh?"Madam Sure, who was on her way to see one of the big bosses in another room, moved her enticing across to the scar-face man on with interest. "What's got you so hot and bothered?" Tightening her red long, sharp nails on his chin, she narrowed her gaze dangerously. "It better be good."The man didn't flinch, showing that those who could have stations on this floor weren't your ordinary sort of people. "Forgive me for my insolence, ma'am, but someone has activated the signal.""So what? Don't you know the protocol to follow if a guest does that?""Yes, I do. However, this situation is different. The button was indeed
The room was rectangular and significantly better than the room Bain slept in last night. Red carpets covered the floors, giving an elegant touch to the already vast and ornate room. Attached along the walls were a multitude of wall lights that brightened the scene to life. The bed was the largest he has seen since arriving, and the tv, though covered with visible cracks across it's screen, was still better than the average tvs in this hell hole. Bain looked around but didn't see any windows or visible exits apart from the door they came in from. So how were they going to do it? There was an unexpected knock on the door, causing Bain to jolt like a cat out of water.Who?One of the casino guards in a black suit calmly walked and stared at them expressionlessly. His stare was so intense that Bain felt he had been stripped of all thoughts. However, Bain didn't panic, but followed Leorio's lead and massaged the chubby pig's belly. When the duo looked at the man, they acted like fr
Target locked. Follow his lead? Sure. Bain quickly followed behind Leorio, having a vague clue what he planned. Looking at the stage again, there were 5 individual narrow walkways that shot from the main stage towards the advance, as though they were elevated runway platforms. There, build dancers could stand out against the others, dancers up close to the audience members. Already, several bold dancers were moved out to showcase themselves. Smile. Smile. Smile... No matter how embarrassing it was, Bain kept an inviting smile, hoping the torture would soon end. "Yeah! Yeah! Yeah, baby! Now, this is what I'm talking about! Some fine ass boys wag their tails for me!" "Hehehehehe~... Boss, it seems they like you. They're all over you like starved b**ches in heat." "Pfft~. You say they are like b**ches in heat, but I say they already 'ARE' b**ches wanting the touch of a man. Lucky boss. He's got both of them fighting for his attention." The men seated beside the chubby ma
Dance?Bain didn't think he was a great performer.But seeing the many guards pointing their weapons at them, how dare anyone oppose the idea? Augh~He smiled wryly and adjusted his Tutu while being dragged away by Leorio. He, Bain, never knew there would be a day he became a showgirl... Or in this case, a show boy. Leorio was taking this matter quite well. And just like that, Bain found himself dancing out towards the stage, with his legs kicking as high as they could. He didn't know the moves, only following everyone's lead. Leorio leaned closer, whispering into his ears. And soon, the duo nodded at each other tactfully. No one knew about their little conversation. And out in the audience, where many ruffians, thugs, mobs, and other elite organizations... Just as one would expect from the Mainland. The room was layered with smoke from the never-ending stream of cigars and cigarettes getting lit. Large lights pointed to the stage, illuminating the poor unfortunate souls who c
