Hiding behind a large box, Spike saw a man who strangely had bull-like horns on his head face to face with the robot guards.
Behind that man, there were two people who also had strange physical appearances. One has a tail with fire on the end and the other has scaly skin like a reptile.
"Who are they?" Spike asked in a whisper to Silver as well as to Vahn.
“Barro, Rhond and also Visco. They are members of the gang The Chain. They are always seen together in every situation. But what's weird now is, where are the other members of The Chain?” said Silver confused.
“Maybe they're splitting up to find a place to get out. I don't know them, but what I know is that Barro has strong ambitions to become the leader of The Chain."
Barro, the head of the bull, clenched his hand towards the guard as if challenging him to a duel immediately.
“Let us through! Or I will use your iron as my new weapon!” Barro said.
[Prisoners #342 has been violating the rules. Lethal system allowed ]
“You only mentioned Barro? What do you mean by that? You underestimated both of us huh?” said Rhond the firetail. He just ran and tried to burn the guard using the fireballs that came out of his tail.
“Machines like you are just pebbles we need to get rid of, accept this!” Visco put his hands on the ground. A ball of floating water suddenly appeared and confined the guard from the inside so it couldn't go anywhere.
[Prisoners #322 and #336 have been violating the rules. Lethal system allowed ]
In an instant, the guard did look like he had run out of moves and would die any minute. Spike felt that his expectation that the guards were all powerful figures was slowly crumbling.
“What kind of technique is that? What powers do they have? However, I didn't see any resistance at all from the guards. After all, the robot shouldn't be working anymore, right? Electronics are weak against water”
Vahn and Silver remained silent. They prefer to see the course of the fight without a lot of pretentious commentaries. Besides that, Spike might have been a huge pokemon fan.
The eyes of the guards lit up. And in an instant, all the power that confined him disappeared. Deactivating everything really quickly.
“Barro! You said that he wouldn't be able to anti-power after I locked him in water and burned his body. Why is he still able to do that ability!” protested Vasco who turned out that their plan did not go as expected.
"Don't think that's all it is. I'll beat him up again right now!”
Barro ran, his fists suddenly enlarged and the same size as the Guardian's body. But when Barro tried to hit it, Barro's hand got smaller again and no damage was done to the Robot.
[ Skill immobilization has been activated. All prisoners within the radius cannot use their skills ]
The guard cocked his shotgun, aiming directly at Barro's hand.
With one shot, the bullet cost Barro his hand. Blood spurted and spread over the bullhorn man's body now.
"Not! My hands!” Barro shouted in pain.
"Son of a bitch!" Rhond couldn't stand seeing his partner hurt like that right now. The flames on its tail had also disappeared. But his instinct to defend himself and escape from a precarious situation made him inevitably survive.
Rhond threw one of the nearby boxes at the robot
The guard shot the box. Which turned out to be in direct contact with his shotgun bullets, resulting in quite a powerful explosion. Throwing Rhond away from the guard right now.
An explosion alone is not enough to knock down the Guard. They don't know what the robot is made of, but what is clear is that it seems like he can't feel any damage at all in the robot's organs.
Only Vasco was left standing and fighting. All the hopes of his comrades depended on him.
“Take the bullets in my trouser pocket Vasco! When we don't have much ti-"
Before Barro finished his words, the Guard casually shot Barro in the head. Shutting him up forever.
Vasco began to cry, he had lost the friends he knew today.
Spike saw it, right at Vasco's back. A Shotgun the same guards used against the prisoners.
"Wait, where did he get that shotgun?" Spike muttered wonderingly.
Vasco aimed for the head of the neon red-eyed Sentinel. His hands were shaking and he couldn't steady himself because he was so scared.
[Prisoners #336 confiscating The Guards Weapon. Execution Protocol commenced ]
With a heavy shot, Vasco pulled the trigger now.
Lots of bullets flew about the head of the guard. Some could say, that collection of razor-sharp shrapnels hit him right. But strangely, the guard didn't feel anything there.
"Impossible! Hunn said that this weapon can already be used! Is he trying to trick us all!”
Panicking, Vasco threw the shotgun away. Trying to escape from the attack of the Guardian who could no longer tolerate Vasco's crimes. Surprisingly, the Guardian did not follow Vasco to finish him off.
[ Target running, Weapon Change: Precision ]
The guard's weapon changed. This time, it's more like a rifle with a long barrel and muzzle. Complete with Scope to be able to see from a distance.
With just one shot to the head, Vasco's entire body was crushed like mush. The hallway, which was red with lights, changed with blood.
That terrible incident might traumatize someone if someone sees it repeatedly.
"Son of a bitch! Even though we are this close to victory!” It turned out that Rhond had still regained consciousness, only, he couldn't move or fight anymore.
[ Weapon Change : Shrapnels ]
The Guardian stepped on Rhond's body preventing him from moving. But no matter how much Rhond's efforts could not make him run away from that place right now. More precisely, Rhond felt that perhaps his life would end soon after this.
“Quickly! end my life you heartless creature!”
A single gunshot destroyed Rhond's head on the spot.
All of those prisoners are dead now without exception. Making the hallway quiet because there were no more shouts of anger from anyone.
[ All targets have been eliminated. Reporting to HQ ]
Spike was silent, not because he was afraid the Guardian would find out. But because he can already feel why the prisoners are afraid of them.
If Spike were to fight the three prisoners, he would have a slim chance of winning.
But one guard, strong enough to kill them all like cockroaches…
Waiting for the Sentinel to come out, Spike and three of them were still hiding behind the giant box right now. They refuse to cross paths with the Sentinel after learning the fate of the three who died quickly beforehand.Spike doesn't even want to make his breathing heard by the Sentinel, he's afraid the Robot's sensors can detect it.A few seconds had passed, and the Sentinel came out of the hall. With bloodstained guns around him right now.Finally, Spike could breathe a sigh of relief.“What the hell! You never said that the robot has the power to neutralize power?” he asked."Better for you to know firsthand than for us to tell you. The point is, you probably realize how dangerous those robots are by now. Do you still want to fight him with your current strength?”Spike was silent, he realize he was not able to fight it."Then let's hurry up. While we still have some time left”Silver invited Spike as well as Vahn to leave immediately. He was walking in the opposite direction fr
Spike was splattered with blood from the Rexes earlier after the Invisible Wall disappeared. Meanwhile, the Gears that Rexes had bought before had suddenly turned rusty and impossible to use again“Bastard! What exactly happened just now!” Spike shouted in surprise and disbelief.Silver stood up, whereas Vahn drew closer to the two of them. as if they already understood what they saw.“One gets consumed by one's own greed, and that's what happened to Rexes. What an idiot” Silver said.“This is the first time I've seen someone become like that. Turns out the myth is true...” Vahn responded.Spike cleaned the blood splatter from his face, walking closer to the body of Rexes.“He doesn't look like a human now, more like the Monsters in the Dungeon. Is it possible that the creation of the monsters in the arena was like that?” Vahn asked himself."Forget about him, we have to do this now, we don't have much time." Answer Silver is busy operating the Main Board right now.Spike is terrified
Several hours had passed after the mutiny that occurred in the prison. Spike still doesn't know what's going on out there. He prefers to prioritize his own life now.Inside his pocket, there was still Vahn's Butterfly Knife that he had kept away. This a sign that Spike has a hidden plan from two of his colleagues who he just consecrated before.Spike realized, that he just got quite a lot of Point Credit. He started trying to check what was available in his cell shop.[ Shop: 3 items available to buy ][ Scarf of Harpies ][ Skills: makes the body of the wearer of the Scarf lighter and the pressure of gravity becomes lower ][ Price: 100,000 Credit Points ]Spike looked at the next gear choice[Nornir Fang][ Skills: Power to get Critical Damage becomes bigger ][ Price : 200,000 Credit Points ]Besides those two items, Spike took his time to go through the last item[Jack in The Box][ Skills: User will get a secret box every time Duel or Grind.

Sometime, SomewhereThe hotel lights were dim and silent welcoming the arrival of the man wearing the suit. In his right pocket carrying a revolver, he stepped hurriedly with a feeling of anxiety.His footsteps told him he might die today.He looked above every door he entered, muttering “305” to himself over and over without stopping.Until finally his head looked down, a beautiful red high heels scattered behind the door. The man immediately banged on the hotel door, not caring about the other occupants in this building.“Princess Marin! Are you there?" he asked loudly with his hands tapping hard.Not hearing any answer, the man immediately took a swing ready to crash his body toward the door.The sound of the door falling down was very loud there, a sign that he had succeeded in knocking it down.“Spikes! Finally, you came!” Shouted a beautiful blonde girl who was so happy waiting for the man she had been waiting for.The two of them immediately hugged each other, letting go of the
It was all just a bad dream. Spike woke up with his whole body and bed wet at this time. Tears still could not hold him to keep coming outBeside his bed, there is a cable and also a device that connects to his head. Spike thought that this was what made him have the most terrible dreams like before. Spike, might actually lose his life if something like that happened in real life,Still burning with rage, Spike unplugs and destroys the things that are making the nightmares now. A dream he couldn't imagine would come true.[Social Protocol Begins. All cell gates are available to open]He doesn't know how long he fell after the battle and also the rebellion that occurred with The Chain Gang. But one thing is clear, Spike checked all the equipment, and also the items he bought were still there to be used.Perhaps, Hudson gave Spike his punishment in the form of a nightmare that felt very real. Making Spike realize that he is still not free and bound in this cursed place.Spike held his h
Somewhere inside the Battleborn prisonA long bench with a glass of cold soda water on it was about to be drunk by someone with a strong build there. His black beard and tan skin felt the sun's rays like they had never felt it before.Right above it, there is transparent glass that allows the sun to enter directly. While around it, there are still iron walls that are getting worn out.In front of him lay a long red carpet with gold accents that were so luxurious for a prisoner. Along the carpet was inscribed the Latin words "Rex Carcerem"Beside him, there were two prisoners in orange jumpsuits wearing sunglasses like bodyguards."My soda is empty, quickly get it again." shouted the figure to the prisoner behind him."But boss, my Point Credit is almost used up"[ 400,000 Point Credit has been transferred from Prisoners #7 ]"I already sent it to you, don't complain about Point Credit again to me...""Okay Boss..." replied the man who immediately went to get a drink for someone he rea
In a free room near the Cafeteria."Where did you get this photo?" asked Spike as he saw the photo he had just been given from Silver.“I got it from a new prisoner. I even wonder why you know absolutely nothing about the prisoner's information. Because when he comes here, he always mentions where he's from. He is a member of The Low-Hats Gang...”Spike was really very curious about the person Silver was talking about, he said. “Can I meet this person now?”"I can take you to him. But on one condition…” Silver replied in a whisper."What's that?" Spike asked curiously.“Promise me, that for the next week. There will be some Duel fights that you will do. And you have to win all those battles later...” Silver said with full seriousness.Spike wanted to laugh when he heard that. "That's not even a request Silver, even without you telling me. I will still do it..."“I don't believe you. You even spared Vahn's life, a freak that you just met. You even made him a member of your gang. Do you
“Low-Hats Gang? Since when did you come in? I have never seen you in the gang before!” asked Spike, utterly bewildered.“Ahh… I believe that you also lost some of your memory. I also lost some due to the effects of the power I have now. But what is important now Sir, I am very happy to meet you!” continued Bonou in a very interested tone."No need to mince words anymore. Where did you get the photos of me and Cole?” continued Spikes.That old man immediately tried to return to his room again which was so messy. Spike don't know how he can live in a room like that, but what's clear is that Spike won't be able to sleep in there just thinking about how messy his room is.“Wait a minute, where should I keep it...” Bonou muttered, struggling to find something to address Spike.Spike continued to check the old man's room. Because there were so many things strewn about and stuck to the walls, he felt that he might have missed something in this room. And sure enough, something caught his eye.
