Chapter 885 Prison Break The Warden
Located underneath the main base of the White Rose headquarters was a prison designed to keep dangerous Altereds out from the outside world. No one had ever escaped before, and even if they managed to escape, they were surrounded by the White Rose agents.
Just the thought of such a thing seemed impossible. Yet, a single person, Gary, was determined to get out no matter what. He would do anything, and his system had even granted him a quest to do the impossible.
During his journey, he had met another who was determined to get out of this place, a man that went by the name of Blackjack. Later, they had recruited a new person to their group, one of the strongest Altereds in the prison, a Mythical type Altered that went by the name of Ice.
These three were a powerful force to be reckoned with, to the point where the other groups that had formed within the prison felt like they had no choice but to take them out.
Unfortunately for them, it didn’t work out well. Both leaders of the North and South groups were eliminated, only one leader remained which was Stinger, and after seeing what had occurred, he decided to stay out of it.
Gary, in his fight, was wild. As he defeated his opponents, he consumed them, pushing himself to grow stronger, and in turn, he had earned several pawn points, using them on his fellow teammates, hoping to help them in the fight.
After consuming the others, Gary was no weaker despite having fought for a long time, and if anything, he felt the strongest he had ever been for a while.
“Are you alright?” Blackjack asked, reuniting with his teammate. The other prisoners no longer wished to fight, they pushed themselves against the wall and didn’t charge in anymore.
The balance that was in the prison was ruined, and they were at a loss of what to do from this day onward, but Gary didn’t care about that because he was just looking forward and straight ahead at what was needed to do next.
‘I just got to take one down, I just have to take one more person down,’ Gary repeated in his head. ‘And after that, I need to rush to Slough as quickly as possible, I need to do what we can.’
However, Blackjack, his partner, didn’t have the same thoughts running through his head.
‘The Warden is impossible to beat, she’s just too strong, but during the fight, if Gary can get one good bite on her, then after some time has passed she will lose her Altered powers, that is the time to escape and the only time to escape.’
‘Maybe… with the three of us, we could beat the Warden, but then how would we progress further, the whole White Rose, and their squad captains, would be after us. We need to escape this prison with our full strength to get out of here.’
Meanwhile, Ice was just following Gary to see what type of person he was. How much he could achieve with his will of wishing to help his friends.
As they stared at the end of one hall, they saw the thick steel door open up on the second floor. Immediately, several guards came through dressed in black, with their Altered gear drawn.
They ran down the metal staircase that led to the second floor, and were lining up on either side. While the guards ran forward, they couldn’t help but look at the carnage, the amount of dead bodies, blood and wreckage the prison was in.
They had never seen it like this before.
“What is going on?” Gary asked. “Why aren’t the guards doing anything, I thought they would lunge at us!”
Going through the aftermath, was the tall Warden with a black beret on top of her head tilted to the side. Her tall body was seen stepping through, and slowly she walked down the stairs in her black-colored clothing.
Confidently, she walked down the stairs as if it was something she did every day, not even paying attention to the dead bodies.
“Why would they do anything, they are confident that they only need one person to deal with all of this,” Blackjack answered. “That’s how confident they are in this person, we need to be ready at all costs.”
Unlike Gary, both Ice and Blackjack had used a considerable amount of strength during their fight. They weren’t feeling stronger than before, so they were a little cautious.
“I never saw your fight against the Warden,” Ice answered. “Do you think you could give us some advice, what type of Altered even is she?”
Since Ice never had any intention of escaping the place and stayed in his cell most of the time, he hadn’t witnessed the event that made people wary of Blackjack. At the same time, he had no idea of the strength of the Warden and never cared to learn until today.
“That woman… is a Mythical Type Altered like you, one of the strongest types of Altered that exist, as you should know,” Blackjack answered.
“Look at you,” the Warden spoke, interrupting the conversation between the three. She was now standing in front of the other guards, and the prisoners had shifted to the other side of the prison, while Gary and his teammates were placed in the center of the room.
“Look at the mess you have created, I never thought that you would do this again, causing such a big mess, Blackjack, and this time it looks like you’ve rallied together some allies, but that won’t change a thing, because no one escapes my prison!” The Warden claimed.
Blackjack got ready as he prepared himself.
“This might not sound frightening but trust me she is the hardest opponent I have gone against, her Altered form is based on the Mythical creature known as the unicorn.”
