My Cell Prison

Chapter 556: 556
 

[Symbol: Stone Wall]

Han Dong holds a piece of paper in his hand, on which a stone wall symbol is drawn.

He immediately looks at his mates to see if anyone got the same symbol. Han Dong doesn’t want to clash head-on with his teammates as of now, of course, unless it’s Mia and Winry.

But if run into Abe and Dumps early, that’d be a headache.

The symbols drawn by the rest of the team are:

[Symbol: Flame]

[Symbol: Radiance]

[Symbol: Lake]

[Symbol: Gale]

“All different… This probability is a bit small? Was it on purpose, or are we really that lucky?”

This also implies that the opponents of his team are the five strangers on the opposing side.

Observer Alonso announces:

“The draw has ended, and matches in the final are as follows!”

Abe Rhein (Hundred Beasts) versus Brian Greenlanzy (Weapon Master), setting: Fire Mountain.

Dumps Martin (Magician) versus Iguava Masalaqi (The Undead), setting: Mirror Lake.

Winry Austin (Blacksmith) versus Sean Naberis (Demon), setting: Cathedral of Light.

Mia Seminovich (Spider) versus Guli Chalidu (??), setting: Cloud Realm.

Valen Nicholas (Crow) versus Diana Epsilon (Black Rose), setting: Stone City.

Upon hearing such draw results, Mia was shocked, a streak of dread flashing in her eyes.

She’s not foolish at all; she pays more attention to the opponents in the finals than anyone else.

All top 10 players are strong.

But amongst the strong, there still exist disparities. The Guli Chalidu that Mia happened to draw in the Finals, there’s a good chance he’s ranked ‘high’ amongst the strong.

“Why is my man paired with that seductive bitch!? No… I want to do a switch!”

Mia seems to be jealous by the words she’s saying. She doesn’t want Han Dong to fight against that underground female student… Yet, under the disguise of jealousy, she really wants to switch opponents.

Of course, Han Dong can discern the real issue behind Mia’s terrible acting.

Moreover, with the draw having been decided, naturally, no switches could be allowed.

A hand is draped across Mia’s shoulder:

“Mia… You’ve already made it to the top 10.

The following matches don’t need to go all out. If you sense the opponent is unusual or dangerous, forfeit immediately… Understand?”

“Oh…”

Mia nods slightly.

His concern makes her cheeks blush a genuine shade of pink.

“You better not lose either. That shameless woman seems rather formidable.”

“Okay.”

The contests will proceed in the sequence announced by the referee, Alonso.

Abe is still the first one out, up against the Weapon Master Brian from the Crusader Department, who carries a Weapon Spectrum.

Dumps quietly warns:

“Captain Abe, although this student didn’t shine particularly bright in the semifinals, you should still be cautious… Dawu, the berserker who trained with us before, scored lower than him in overall assessment.

It seems he was born into a family of weapons, and has been receiving training within his family since he was young, only joining the Knight Academy last year.

He is the cream of the crop among this year’s Crusaders.”

“Okay.”

Abe’s character means he never looks down upon any opponent.

Adjusting the Beast Bone Ring on his left finger a bit, Abe and Brian stay on the Original Stone Stage; the other graduates temporarily exit.

At that moment, the four mysterious councillors magically appear at the four corners of the stage.

They initiated the secret art together, triggering changes in the original stone.

A heat wave swiftly swept through the entire colosseum, the once unremarkable stage quickly transforming into a volcanic region teeming with molten lava.

The upcoming match will take place in such an environment.

The four council members remained standing in the corners of the stage, perhaps securing the “Original Stone Scenery”, or perhaps they had other objectives.

Han Dong stared at the four council members, their faces hidden within their hoods, feeling very uncomfortable.

The finale of the tournament officially commenced.

Speaking of physique, Brian was taller than Abe, his bronze body of one meter and nine showing that he had consistently trained his body… From the age of three, Brian’s family had established the perfect strength training program for him.

Only a perfect body can perfectly wield all sorts of weapons.

Adequately trained in a family of weapon enthusiasts, he was recognized by his family last year, and transferred to the National Royal Academy of Knights – The Crusaders, immediately scoring first in the cross evaluation test at the end of the term.

As for the “Weapon Spectrum”, it was a storage space given to him by his family.

Every time Brian entered the Fate Space, he would garner various types of Fate Weapons as much as possible… at the same time, he would buy quality materials from the market using his family wealth for weapon manufacturing.

“Weapon Spectrum,” unleash.

At present.

A heavy round shield and a black iron dragon patterned javelin were held in Brian’s hands.

A crescent moon curved blade and a short sword were crossed over his back.

[Talent Tree – Weapon Master]

That’s right… Brian’s Talent Tree had a steel-like texture; various basic weapons hung from the branches, proficient in combat and various other skills, he could deal with any type of combat or emergencies.

“Abe Rhein… Kaimon Rhein’s grandson, recognized as the first among the students at the Knight Academy this year.

I have always been studying you through various pieces of information… I have also been honing my skills to deal with beasts by killing various exotic beasts in the Fate Space and outside the city.

Come, let me experience the power of the Hundred Beasts.”Nôv(el)B\\jnn

Hum…

All of a sudden.

An Abe, faster than Brian’s comprehension.

Than the semi-finals was more rapid, transformed into a black panther and disappeared from his original position in an instant, lightly leaps on the rocks bypassed by the lava, quickly approaching Brian.

“So fast!!!”

Momentarily, his well-honed muscles reacted and he swung his round shield, aiming to block and repel the charging Abe.

However…

As Abe was too fast, Brian missed the perfect timing to block.

Panther-Bear switch.

The attributes of speed and power were reversed in an instant.

Facing Brian’s shield attack, Abe directly confronted it with the “Bear’s Power Palm”, not showing any signs of fear… However, this time’s Bear Palm seemed a bit different than before.

“Dragon?”

Some sharp-eyed viewers could vaguely see a bit of the dragon’s silhouette within the beast transformation aura.

The arms, which had grown to twice their original size due to the bear posture, also exhibited the emergence of “dragon tendon muscles” and “dragon scale outlines”… The power was maximized.

Boom!

Crack, crack, crack…

The well-crafted fate round shield was directly shattered by Abe’s palm.

Brian’s arm tendons and bones were completely broken, even two of the ribs adjoining his arm had snapped.

The impact given by the bear paw, transferred through ‘Round Shield’ → ‘Arm’ → ‘Body Trunk’.

In one breath.

Brian was ‘uprooted’ by this impact, his whole body flying straight towards the lava zone… The impact was so strong that even Brian’s head was in a daze, incapable of any reaction.

Just as he was about to fall in.

Abe leaped into the air, delivering another kick to send him out of the ring.

The first match, Abe Rhein victorious!
