Chapter 860 A Big Power UP
Chapter 860 A Big Power UP
The final plan that Carter had, to try and turn those who had allied up against each other, had failed. Carter already knew about Ice’s past; there wasn’t much he could do with that.
He was one of the few prisoners who knew what they had done. Through the extent of his own powers in a clash, he had killed those around him that had no involvement. He wanted to stay in the prison, but he suddenly had a change of heart.
Then, there was Blackjack, the first man Carter was unable to get any information about, so he only had Gary, and now even that hadn’t worked.
“What were you going to do?” Gary asked as he moved forward. “I bet if I was in here, and the Phoenix Gang wasn’t already targeting me, you would threaten my friends, my family, that are on the outside.”
“You are a cruel person in this place; those that are already trapped, you force them to do your bidding by trapping them even more in this place. I can safely say that you are a person that I don’t mind getting rid of.”
Gary no longer walked forward and instead exploded from his feet forward, and grabbed Carter right by his head and lifted him out of his seat; he could feel his entire body shaking.
“You’re making the wrong decision, I can-”
Before Carter could finish his sentence, Gary had ripped out the side of his throat, killing him on the spot, and right then, while his back was turned away, he started to eat part of his body bit by bit.
‘I have to get stronger, I have to consume other Altered to get out of this place, I have to defeat the Warden, there is no time now, I have to do it.’ With these thoughts in his head, Gary continued to bite away.
It wasn’t the first time he had to resort to doing this; he had done it with the fight against Midwak as well. Each time, it was getting slightly easier, and that was what was worrying him slightly — that he was losing his humanity. But to get out of this place, he needed to get rid of it all.
After finishing consuming Carter, he stood up from where he was, and the prisoners that could still move took a step back. As if possessed and focused, Gary looked at the next body that was on the ground, a victim from his own slaughter, and he went over doing the same. Nôv(el)B\\jnn
‘If the body and person are already dead… then they need to at least be of some use.’
The prisoners had to look away, and every bone in their body was shaking at the sight they were seeing. An Altered that was consuming people, one that was eating their own; they didn’t know such a thing existed.
“Why is he eating them… they're already dead, right… Does he have to go that far? Can’t he at least let their bodies be buried?”
“Crap, crap, why did we go along with what they said; I didn’t know we were going to go up against monsters!” another prisoner spoke.
Not only were they witnessing what Gary was doing in front of them, news was spreading of the deaths of the North and South group leaders; the only one left alive was Stinger, and he had no intention to fight.
At the same time, Gary, with his quick digestion, strong teeth, and will to just swallow and move forward, had consumed all of the dead that were left on the ground. Without releasing it, he had even gone over to the center and then to the other side.
Consuming those which Ice had killed as well as what Blackjack had killed. The only thing that had stopped him and made him realize what had happened was actually the ding from the system.
[You have completed all Bonus optional objectives]
[Consume those which you have killed, waste not want not!]
[Total amount of Pawn points earned: 25]
[Current amount of pawn points: 32]
[You have leveled up!]
[You have leveled up!]
[You have leveled up!]
[Current level 36 >>> 39]
[3 stat points gained]
[Total number of stat points available 5 stat points]
[Your stats have improved]
[Strength 75 >>>> 85]
[Dexterity 66 >>> 81]
[Endurance 74 >>> 88]
[Congratulations your body has grown very well! Pawn points can no longer be used on standard Stats.]
[Pawn points can still be used on the following Stats. (Health) (Energy)]
After all of the messages were done, Gary couldn’t help but look at what had happened. It was the first time he had such an increase in everything that he had. His stats had increased due to him consuming the others.
As time went on, it took more and more stronger Altered to increase his stats, but the sheer amount he had defeated and consumed was quite a lot, and they weren’t regular Altered by any means.
To top it off, he had also increased his level, which had required a large amount of exp points.
‘But what do I do with all of these pawn points; at the moment, there’s no need to increase my current grade from Rook to Queen. The quest of getting out of here will give me that anyway.’
‘The skills now require an incredibly large amount of pawn points to level them up, so I would be better off using them on health and energy. But those two are already high… is there a need to increase them a lot?’
Then, looking through everything his system had to offer, he realized that there was something he could use his stat points on. The system allowed him to use it on things other than himself.
‘Right now, I’m not there with you… but maybe, I can help you all out somehow even though I’m not there.’ Gary’s eyes were focused as he brought up the screen in front of him.
Meanwhile, Ice, Blackjack, and everyone around were wondering just what he was staring at in the air so hard.
