Capítulo 38: Order of secret Gladiators...
Lenny noticed the blockade around him from the corner of his eyes.
The moment he did, his knees curved a little, and he shifted his center of gravity.
If this was going to be a trap, then he was going to be ready for a fight.
He clenched his fist as his mind raced for solutions on how he was going to attack.
E4004 licked her lips as she stared at him like a piece of candy.
"Wait!!!" E7007 immediately mediated, "I did not mean that kind of gift!" He turned to her, "I'm bringing him to the order."
"Huh!" she raised a brow at him, "Are you sure?"
"Yes!" E7007 nodded. "But I want you to appraise him first."
This time around, Lenny was the one who raised his brow.
E4004 nodded at E7007 and stood up. She was several times the size of Lenny, and it was a bit awkward to watch, but she did it anyway.
She grabbed him by the hand as she took a knee.
And then she made a cut on her palm, and then she dropped bits of her blood on his hand.
Slowly, the blood changed color.
Immediately, Lenny got an alert from the system.
<Host's Body being Invaded!>
<Defend or allow?>
Lenny got the alert. He did not know what E4004 was doing, but he was not one to allow his privacy to be invaded.
"Defend!" he commanded in his mind.
The blood on his wrist glowed a little, and then it stopped.
E4004 frowned.
E7007 saw her frown and asked, "What's wrong?"
"Nothing!"
"Huh!?"
"I mean, nothing is coming up!"
Lenny used Surveyor on E4004 and discovered her ability.
<Name> E4004
<Race> Half-born
<Level=5>
<Rank=Nil>
<Strength=94>
<Agility=60>
<HP 35/35>
<Exp 90/100>
<Ability= ORIGINS>
She had an ability that could let her trace the origins of organic creatures.
This ability looked like it was just for appraisal, but it was not. For instance, she could tell the type of demon parent that a half-born had, and she could even push her ability further to know the weakness or weak points on the body of an organic creature.
This was a very useful ability.
However, Lenny was not going to let her use it on him.
This was not the first time he blocked an ability that was used on him. He had also blocked E666's seduction of him.
"I can't trace his origin!"
E7007 frowned a bit as he lowered his jaw. And then he smiled.
"Good!" he muttered.
She saw the expression on his face and truly could not understand what he was thinking.
Just then, the burly woman who acted as a defense for the territory approached. "E4004, it's time. The others have already gone."
E7007 smiled, "Perfect! we were planning on taking him there anyway."
"There?" Lenny asked.
"Yes! We are taking you to meet the Order!"
They were led to a particular corner of the cell by the women of the Cowhed crew. Suddenly they formed a circle.
E4004 removed the rag of clothes on the ground, which revealed a stone slab.
She dug her hands into the hole and peeled out the slab. From the way her veins puffed out, Lenny could tell that it was very heavy.
A dark passage was revealed underneath it.
E7007 jumped into the hole. Pocket followed.
Lenny paused and was a bit skeptical, but he too jumped in and followed along.
E4004 also jumped in and followed along.
Behind her, the burly woman in charge of watching after the territory closed the hole with the slab
It was dark at first, but the further they walked, the brighter it became.
Lenny could see that the walls seemed to be covered by mushrooms that glowed green in the dark.
"Avoid the mushrooms as much as possible. They look pretty but are actually quite poisonous."
Lenny avoided the mushrooms, and soon the passage led to what looked like a large cavern.
Just before they entered the Cavern, E7007 shifted a stone on the wall aside and brought out roughly made sack masks. He handed the masks to all of them, and they advanced inside.
In the cave, there were bigger mushrooms all over the place, which made it much brighter. Some mushrooms even grew from the ceiling down.
But that was not all. There were people here.
To be precise, there were gladiators here.
Lenny did not need anyone to tell him before he understood that this was a secret meeting place.
In his former life, he had done enough missions to understand such an environment.
But that was not all. He noticed that these gladiators were of all classes.
This was easily noticed by the tags on their chests.
There were gladiators from the D class all the way to the A class.
However, everyone had masks on their faces, and only their bodies were revealed.
Even though it looked like they were not orderly, Lenny could tell that they were.
Those in their individual classes stayed together.
Everyone surrounded a very big, glowing mushroom that looked more like an altar than a chair. Some gladiators sat while others stood.
Some conversed with one another. However, it was in a low tone.
They had only entered and joined behind in a while when a very curvy gladiator lady stepped forward with a huge stick in hand. She stood before the altar.
The session for today's order will now begin.
She slammed the stick on the ground, and it echoed on the walls: "All rise and welcome the Order Master!"
Everyone immediately stood up.
A person that was completely covered from head to toe in ragged clothes was slowly ushered into the room by three other bare-chested gladiators.
Lenny had not even seen where he had appeared from, but the moment he entered the room, the entire atmosphere changed.
Lenny had always been sensitive to power. What he felt from this person was so terrible that it made the hair on his skin stand in alert.
Only the person's entrance caused the glowing mushrooms in the room to fluctuate in brightness a little.
Even with all four Cerberuses combined, Lenny did not feel this much terror. In fact, he could tell that their power would be nothing in this man's presence.
This was a terrifying person.
The person walked all the way to the Big Glowing Mushroom. And then he sat on it.
This was the same mushroom that E7007 advised not to so much as touch because it was poisoned.
The man waved his hand to the female gladiator and said, "The first case of the session: Escaping the Arena!"
