As Arnold stepped out of his car and started walking forward, he noticed that his leg felt heavy. To his left, in the property of the abandoned warehouse, was parked a nice Chevrolet automobile; not that he gave a damn about the car or its owner, but it was parked there anyway.At this moment, he was simply so preoccupied with other things.As he approached the front of the warehouse, there were guns pointed in his direction. After determining that he was unarmed and doing a search on him, one of the guys got closer to him. After the search, they tied his hand behind his back and pulled him inside in a disrespectful manner."Ahaaaaa!!!" When Lucas saw Arnold being shoved in front of the enormous entryway, he immediately let out an excited exclamation."You have made it! Finally!! We are in complete agreement with one another. He said this while getting closer to Arnold and hugged him tightly before tapping him on the back. After that, he stepped back.“Where is my fiancee?” Arnold g
"Hey... I've given some consideration to what John had to say. This time, haven't we gone a little bit too far?After John had finished speaking, the mood in the room became extremely gloomy. Everyone appeared as if they had completely lost their enthusiasm, and until the bald guy spoke, all of their heads were hanging low in shame."Yes, I am aware of it, but how could any of us have realized what our manager was going through? The boss has never exhibited any symptoms of illness. He never loses his composure and always stays in charge.""And it's possible that this was the reason why he did that." Another possibility was mentioned.They all turned their attention to him and raised their heads."Let's be honest with ourselves, ever since we were subdued by the boss and he started leading us, he had been the one looking out for us more than we did for him. He had been the one looking out for us more than we had done for him. Are you referring to our families? Even when we were being
"How? How?? How??!! How are they here? Isn't that darned Larry outside?! Did he let them in?!" Lucas shook with fear, his guess was that Larry had decided to throw him away.The harsh truth was – they stood no chance against this overwhelming might and number of henchmen.The executives had immediately rallied all the gang members, regardless of where they were, all of them were to meet at the location and what was fifty to one was now a situation of fifty to two hundred."Arrrgghhh!! Damn it!! Attack them!! Tear them apart!!" Lucas commanded. But he didn't know those he was about to deal with, with their boss laying lifeless on the ground, rage burned in them like a volcano, they growled like wild animals and with a loud shout, they also moved and thus began the chaos.As the conflict began, mayhem reigned, and the air resonated with an ensemble of violence.Fists flew with almost preternatural accuracy, while kicks landed with balletic grace.Men carried weapons of unalterable tena
[You have died][You will be revived at the cost of one million lavish points][Reviving host]Jia cried immensely beside him, she was weak and couldn't move her body, she gripped his lifeless body tightly and continued to wail as the voice of the battle overshadowed hers.Meanwhile, Arnold's torn flesh slowly began to stitch together, as if his body was repairing itself with an inexplicable resilience, the bullet lodged in his skull began to emit a faint glow, and even so, slowly, it inched its way out, making a little clanging sound that attracted Jia's attention. That was what made her raise her head to look.Her eyes widened as she watched it happen: — Like a bizarre miracle of biological restoration, the torn tissues reknit, the damaged neurons rewired, and the shattered bone melded back into place.The gunshot wound on Arnold's head had completely disappeared, and his cold body was getting warm, she quickly moved her hand to his wrist to feel his pulse, and her eyes widened wit
How did it ever come to this?Larry was disgusted and angry at himself. Even after he knew the truth, these emotions still twirled within him and made him feel unlike himself, his decision was clouded. He truly had a friend for the first time and he wanted to consider the possibility of this being a coincidence. And that Arnold did not approach him on purpose and that this was all by chance.But even if he did that, it wouldn't change the fact that he and Arnold are arch enemies and one is to die fighting the other. They were two sides of a coin and could not exist at the same time.Larry felt Arnold knew this, he understood it very well and still he approached him. He felt Arnold was going to kill him, and he had chosen to do it in a cowardly way—by befriending him and killing him when he least expected it.It was the lowest of the lowest.Arnold stood up and picked Jia up, he gave her to John who also stood up along with him.He turned around and looked at all of them who were alre
Larry raised his head, his eyes became gloomy as he went down memory lane of how he started this conquest for power.Larry was birthed from an unsanctioned relationship between his father and his mother. His mother was an extremely beautiful woman and a foreigner from a very rich family. She went against her father's orders and got married to Larry's father but after they gave birth to Larry, his father lost his job and things got very hard for her—she left after she couldn't continue to get the luxurious things she used to have.It was since then Larry swore not to feel anything for any woman. Not long after that, his father died and so, he was left in the care of his grandparents. However, they made little to no effort to take care of him, he couldn't blame them because they were too old to take care of themselves, let alone add his burden to theirs. Hence, most of the workload eventually always fell on him.He hated everything about life, he had a strange desire to destroy the wo
Each move made by Arnold and Larry was meticulously executed, as the conflict between them continued to develop.Arnold persisted in moving forward, circling Larry while keeping an evasive and unexpected cadence. In order to wear down Larry's defenses, he continued to take advantage of each hole he could discover. Larry, on the other hand, remained somewhat complacent and hadn't quite taken Arnold seriously.He underestimated the actual extent of Arnold's resilience, by allowing himself to get dragged into his irregular rhythm.Arnold's moves were a captivating combination of finesse and strength, his punches and kicks landing with unbelievable accuracy. Each attack hit its target, pinpointing weak points with exactitude. Larry's defense trembled briefly, but he quickly regained his calm, dismissing Arnold's attempts as a fluke."You are wise to have been able to get a few things or two from our battle just now. Indeed, I give it to you. But it is useless. I have been on this path usi
There was a passion in Larry.He grew up without friends, was ostracized and bullied by the people around him, and never knew or felt true love. When the Gort system awakened his potential, Larry found peace and joy in the mere fulfillment of its quests.There was a particularly happy face he carried each time as if nothing else mattered. A face that suggested to the entire world, "Yes I am enjoying this. I am fine here."Arnold carried the same face but the difference was that right now, Arnold was fighting to protect his life, to go back to his loved ones. As much as he was very desperate to live in this situation, he held tightly onto that excitement and tapped into the great bond that the system offered.That moment Larry understood what Arnold and the Nexus system had that, he and the Gort system didn't... bond.The dawn was breaking and the disaster had spread, what once stood as a tall warehouse was unrecognizable, Arnold and Larry were in battered shape with the clothes torn a
