Chapter 1111 Dead Or Alive

The strange man with a large sword that looked as if it had come out of medieval times introduced himself to Daphne Bree, and the way he did so came as a large surprise.

“Gary Dem’s Father, your Gary Dem’s father?” Daphne asked.

She wondered why she hadn’t seen such a person before. In all of her meetings with the Howlers, with all of the conversations they had about planning this operation, why was she seeing him for the first time?

And why was it that this person used weapons?

‘That weapon had the power to stop Stanley before he shot forward. I really thought that I might have been a goner in that moment. That’s a powerful weapon for sure. Why does he have such a thing?’ Daphne thought.

‘Is he like me? Is he not an Altered… none of this makes sense.’ Daphne thought, but she was pleased with one thing. Although Chen still hadn’t moved from his position, at least there was one person by her side.

“You want to get to my son, right?” Dean asked.

“Right, if you want him to have a chance of beating that damned dragon, then I need to get by his side,” Daphne said.

“And this person in front of us is trying to stop us. Then I will do my best to make sure that you will be able to get to my son,” Dean said as he held the heavy sword straight in front of him.

Although large in size, it looked light in his hands, and the look on his face was relatively serious.

“An unexpected annoyance. A truly unexpected annoyance,” Stanley said as his body had finally cooled down from the strange attack.

Elsewhere, Kai and the others had split up, raiding every small shop they could find. They didn’t ask questions and just took the food from the vendors. It was pretty easy for them to convince the others, just transforming part of their body and destroying the tablet counter or till, and the vendors quickly backed down.

However, in the middle of them ‘borrowing’ things from the vendors, they could see a mass exit from the arena of people.

Seeing this, with what they could carry with stolen bags and such from the venue, they placed the food and all of them headed back into the area.

Despite the mass exit, all of them had managed to return to each other. Olivia, Marie, and Park had regathered with Kai and started to head back to the arena.

“What do you think is happening? Why is everyone rushing out of the place?” Marie asked.

“It looks like Gary might have done what he needed to do,” Kai stated. “It appears he has pushed Harvor too much. Come on, let’s go!”

It didn’t take them long to enter one of the tunnels where people were exiting from, and they had returned to the stands. In front of them, Harvor was in his transformed state, with Gary in the center in his Full Werewolf form.

They could see fighting occurring on the bottom, with Dean and Daphne, along with Stanley who had transformed into his Altered state as well.

“Come on, we need to hurry to him. Man, let’s go!” Park said with a large backpack over him. He jumped over a few of the seats, going from the top of the stands to the center.

As he was making his way there, though, a lot of people were entering the empty stadium seats from the several openings that were scattered around, and all of the people were dressed in the purple and white colored uniforms.

They were the One Gang members, and quickly turning to see Kai and the others, they had transformed. It wasn’t just Kai, but they had also surrounded several of the White Rose members that had decided to stay as well.

Stanley, seeing this, had a smile on his face.

“It seems all of you have forgotten something quite important. Right now, you are in the One Gang’s territory. We own this city, we own the AFC. We have the entire gang at our disposal. You should know fighting away from home is incredibly difficult.”

“None of you will make it to the stage, which means Gary will lose.”

Several times, Harvor had rushed in an attempt to hit Gary, and with no choice, he had to use the Lethal Pounce move to avoid the attack. Gary’s energy was getting lower and lower, and there was something in his own mind that he was worried about.

“What’s wrong!” Harvor asked. “Where is all the bravery from before? All you’ve done is run away; you haven’t even tried to attack!”

It was Gary’s own fear in the back of his mind. The last time fighting Harvor in this state, a single hit had caused his Last Stand skill to activate. He was on death’s door, having passed out.

He was afraid of getting hit by Harvor. He needed Daphne, but he wouldn’t dare even jump to her side for fear of getting attacked from behind. Gary was stuck.

“You are really starting to annoy me!” Harvor said as he raised both hands, and golden particles started to gather in his dragon-like claws.

The particles gathered, creating a ball of energy in both of his hands. Harvor thrust each of them forward, and a large golden blast came out from his hands on either side of Gary, missing him completely.

The beams went far through the stands, destroying the seats, and the attack even continued outward from the stadium into the air. Both of them had completely missed Gary, but he was soon understanding why.

Harvor was pulling his hands together, and both of the beams were closing in toward Gary. Now there was no chance for him to escape.

‘Crap…I can’t do anything!’ Gary thought.

The only thing he could do was rush forward and head straight into the beam, almost running into his death sentence. As Gary was ready to charge forward, something landed right in front of him—someone.

“You lasted this long, which is a lot longer than I thought,” the man said. “From what I have seen, it seems like we might have a chance together. I hope you don’t make me regret my actions.”

The man in front of Gary held out both of his hands, and they started to transform. His arms grew in size, creating a hard casing of dark green-like shell. At the same time, Gary could see out from the back of the man—a long winding tail was breaking out.

From the back of the white clothes, what ripped out from behind was another shell, yet from the back of his head, dark scales could be seen, similar to that of Harvor, almost like that of a dragon.

Gary couldn’t see anything else as the beam of energy had consumed them.

“Stay behind me!” the voice said.

The beam of energy hit the man, consuming his body completely. Gary was unable to see anything until the attack had eventually stopped.

Harvor lowered his arms and started to grind his teeth.

“You're alive… who are you?” Harvor asked.

“Me?” The man said with a smile. “I am the Deputy Chief of the White Rose, Leon Chen. On the order of the White Rose, you, Harvor Ego, are to be taken in—dead or alive!”
