A whirlwind of fists saw Ulmer destroy the next champions. He felled one after another and breezed his way to 51 victories, equaling the best win streak in Brawlers Arena. In this process, he lay tens of champions incapacitated.“Did you see those punches? They were strong yet fluid and precise, like a dance of controlled chaos!”“He really is a beast!”The matches were telecasted live on many levels of Crimia, so the fame of Beast Hunter soared like an eagle, its cry echoing through the layered depths of The Little Abyss. Whispers of his power traveled along the corridors, clubs, and canteens, sparking the interest of both thugs and the terrible dark forces entrenched deeper within the underground city.The live viewership of Brawlers Arena reached an all-time high.And there were some people already wondering if this newly-appeared Beast Hunter was the one who killed the Nine Veils.However, most of them didn’t even consider that possibility as it was too absurd to even think. After
“B-Brawler King has been defeated!” The match presenter spoke through the mic, displaying his shock through his voice as well as his face.“Unbelievable!”“How can he lose so easily?”“Just how strong is this Beast Hunter?”“It doesn’t matter because I bet on him, haha! I’m rich now!”As the crowd went wild for different reasons, Ulmer pulled Greg up by his hair. “He’s not Brawler King,” Ulmer sent spiritual energy into Greg’s body, which forcibly reversed his transformation.‘The entire crowd was shocked by it.“T-That’s Greg the Blood Assassin!”“Why is a monster from level 56 here on the first level?”“W-Wait, if he can defeat that monstrous guy Greg so easily, then how strong is Beast Hunter exactly?”“He’s so much stronger than we all thought! No wonder he managed to break the win record!”“What is your real name?”“Yeah, tell us your real name, Beast Hunter!”The crowd demanded him to disclose his real name, but Ulmer let go of Greg and said, “If I tell you who I am, it wouldn’t
Lera seemingly attacked him from the front with a swift punch, but it was a feint. She changed her form to a kicking motion and landed a strike on his shoulder.Her intention was to send Gabe to the ground, but Gabe stood unmoved.Gabe waved his hand before his nose. “When was the last time you washed your feet? They smell pretty bad.”“You…” Lera flashed behind him and went for a thrust in his spine. Her intention was not to kill but to cripple him.She managed to strike his back, but it was her nails that bent and broke to bits. Except her thumb finger, the other fingers lost their nails.Nevertheless, the nails quickly regrew. She attacked him once more from behind.Ulmer swiveled quickly and tried to grab her hand, but she changed her movement midway and attacked him from another direction.Ulmer still was able to block her attack, but he looked surprised. “How are you able to change your speed so smoothly? Your subordinate also did something similar. You two are able to somehow c
Ulmer saw one shocking thing after another. One disgusting thing after another such as people eating live pig fish by digging their faces into the pig’s open abdomen. It was like a game for these criminals. They were having fun, burying their faces into the insides of the pigs and painting themselves with the blood of these animals. They were taking pictures of one another.They were keeping hundreds of mice in cages and were selling them like snacks. The people would eat them alive like cats would, starting by crunching on the heads of these mice and then devouring them down to the ends of their tails.However, the one that stunned him and shook Ulmer to the core were the faces of the children that were being extracted on the second level.Their faces were removed from their dead bodies and were kept safely in labs, which were then used by the wealthy, old people to do face transplants.It was quite disturbing for Ulmer to see old people feeling good and proud of themselves after get
Ulmer’s exploration through the labyrinth-like third level wasn’t as easy as he had hoped.Many gangs attacked him, and he had to deal with them.A gang of smugglers who followed him from the second level also attacked him from behind. However, they couldn’t withstand Ulmer’s ferocity. He grabbed the first person and threw him like a projectile to knock down three more people.Another gangster attacked with a knife. Ulmer sidestepped deftly and struck his arm, which dropped the knife to the ground. A slap to the chest sent that man flying and crashing into two more people.The next person that attacked him was sent sprawling against the crater-esque wall. The wall did not break because the craters were made out of sturdy black teak wood which could last for centuries.All of those gangsters learned their lesson and ran away.Ulmer continued his journey through the labyrinth. “There are only a few slaves here from as far as I can see. Even though they’re creating a lot of items, it’s s
Most people on the third level didn’t bother the Brutal Brothers, so they were able to guide Ulmer to the designated location earlier than they expected.However, all they found at that spot was a big stone statue of a man holding a goat in his arms. It was also the junction of six streets.“We came here, Boss. Now what?” The brothers looked at Ulmer.“Now, you can eff off,” Ulmer told them.“Uh, can’t you pay us for bringing you here? We fought many people on the way and shed blood for you.”Ulmer cast a cold glance at them.Both of them ran away without looking back.Ulmer then kept staring at the statue which was nearly sixteen feet tall. “Whose statue is this?”[If I’m correct…] Dove’s voice rang in his mind. [This statue must hold the key to the entrance of the Creator’s Vault. Why don’t you break-] Dove was saying, and Ulmer broke the statue to pieces with a single punch.As Dove predicted, there was a stone key inside.If one didn’t look carefully, they wouldn’t have noticed it
Ulmer explored the fourth level a little more to see what kind of things these criminals were doing.They weren’t just experimenting on animals but were also experimenting on food. They were adulterating the food with many things. Artificial flavors which could severely affect a person’s health negatively were being created to increase the shelf life. That wasn’t all. They were mixing chili powder with brick powder. They were mixing pieces of coconut sticks with cumin seeds. They were making plastic rice, vegetables, fruits, and even eggs.Ulmer had never seen this level of corruption before. He could not leave the fourth floor alone, knowing how many people’s lives on the surface were probably being ruined from all these experiments.Instead of destroying this place, Ulmer transferred sections of people one after another to a far away deserted place, where the temperature was so cold that no normal human would be able to survive more than a couple of minutes.Even the dealer that was
Ulmer entered the fifth level, known as the Hunters’ Haven because criminals hunted the human targets.The fifth level looked like an indoor forest with buildings here and there.Anybody who entered through the regular entrances and not through the special elevator were automatically deemed to be a target.Ulmer’s face was still covered by the hood, but many bettors recognized him as the Beast Hunter who made a name for himself recently in the Brawlers’ Arena.“Haha, why did that fool enter the Hunters’ Haven? Does he think he can fight here just because he created a record on the first level?”“Let’s show him what we got then. Release the dogs first.”These bettors who were watching the live feed from a secret place on the fifth level were thrilled now as they were expecting to see Beast Hunter get beaten and killed brutally. And they were betting on whether Beast Hunter would lose or win.A cage rose out of the ground not far from where Ulmer was.He stopped and turned toward the do
