Chapter 253 - Fist of Dominion.
*Creak*
From a stone wall, an outline of a door suddenly appeared.
The corridors were filled with Players that were anxious to register as a Gladiator, but not even one of them noticed the sudden appearance of a door.
The door slowly opened, and a bright light followed.
Still, the Players looked oblivious and continued walking back and forth in the corridors.
Some of them were going to register, and some went to get ready for their upcoming matches that started a few hours later.
A Player with short black hair and an above-average-looking face appeared from the open door.
His previous messy hair was long gone, and the prior exhaustion was wiped out from his face.
He looked relatively relaxed with a tinge of excitement still left.
On top of his head, a nametag floated that was glowing with a golden hue.
[Fist]
After he left the mysterious room, the door disappeared, and the previous stone wall reappeared.
The Players still had no idea that there was a door only a moment ago.
'Time to leave… I can't believe I actually received a Legacy Quest…' He clenched his hand into a fist and saw his future becoming much clearer.
After he started walking away, finally, Players saw him and his nametag.
They started pointing at him while whispering with their friends.
All of them had obvious greed deep inside their eyes and felt so jealous about Fist's luck.
But, all of them hope to get a similar prize, maybe an even better one!
They have no idea how astronomically small the chance of getting Legacy Quest as a reward was.
Fist's luck might seem incredible at the moment, but soon they all will understand how unbelievable it indeed was!
Fist kept walking with hands on his pockets, but soon he passed by two shady-looking individuals who weren't looking at him.
He didn't think it was strange because many Assassins believe that wearing mysterious dark-colored outfits is cool.
When Fist passed them, his senses started screaming in danger, and he couldn't react in time because it came out of nowhere.
*STAB*
One of the shady-looking figures unsheathed their daggers and stabbed it deep inside Fist's waist, piercing through the clothing, armory, flesh, and even bones!
Fist's eyes widened in shock, ''W-Why?'' He asked while blood flowed out from his mouth.
The shady-looking man grinned, ''For fun!''
''F-Fun?'' Fist's face paled, and he had never seen a crazy player like this one!
Who in their right mind would attack a fellow Player in a City where one wrong move can get them thrown into prison.
Another shady-looking person moved next to the Fist and touched his shoulder, ''Soul Suck!''
[Soul Suck Used!]
A terrifying scene happened that caused chills for everyone who saw it.
From Fist's avatar, an illusionary ball-like item was getting pulled out!
When it was pulled out, it looked like Fist's body was getting stretched.
His flesh was moving uncomfortably like his flesh was made out of gum!
[-99 HP!]
[-99 HP!]
Fist saw rows of notifications popping up before him, and his HP was almost instantly reduced by half.
''Enough!'' He screamed after understanding what was currently happening to him.
The shady-looking individuals were hellbent on killing him, but he wasn't planning to make it easy for them!
Out of nowhere, he grabbed the dagger and pulled it away from his flesh.
The shady-looking man looked surprised, but then Fist pulled his head back before smashing it in front of him!
*BAM!*
The shady-looking man was thrown at the stone wall by Fist's headbutt.
''Ahh!'' His nose broke with blue blood dripping down from his nose.
His friend looked surprised, but then he came face-to-face with Fist's own fist!
His friend couldn't even blink and was struck by the fist.
*SMACK!*
*BAM*
His body crashed onto the stone wall with a mouthful of saliva leaving his mouth.
Players around them noticed the scene.
The Guard saw it as well, but they didn't move an inch and didn't have any intention of stopping them.
The shady-looking guys gritted their teeth after their Assassination attempt failed, but they had no intention of giving up so quickly!
*SWOOSH*
Suddenly, both of them disappeared!
[Stealth Used!]
[Stealth Used!]
Fist widened his eyes in shock and anxiously looked around him.
But they didn't see nothing except a crowd of Players looking at him with amused gazes and stone walls.
But then, his senses started ringing!
It was like when he first got attacked; his senses were telling him to dodge!
Fist jumped to the side with the help of his senses and saw his previous spot being assaulted by a rain of daggers.
[Dagger Rain Used!]
In the stone ceiling, two shady-looking guys were hanging with their daggers dug inside the ceiling cracks.
They managed to barely keep hanging with the help of their daggers, but then they saw Fist's enraged eyes looking straight towards them!
''Not good, run!'' The shady-looking guy screamed and jumped out of the way before Fist could do anything.
Fist's right hand started glowing in crimson, making the environment hotter with each passing second.
''Fist of Crushing!'' His powerful scream echoed in the corridors, and he did a powerful uppercut!
The crimson light flew straight towards the ceiling from his fist, destroying it into pieces!
*BOOM*
*CRASH!*
The ceiling fell apart, sending broken stone around the corridor.
A dust cloud appeared around the crash site, making the previous stuffed air even stuffier.
*Cough*
The Players started coughing and tried to wave their hands to get rid of the dust.
''Haaahh… Haaahh…'' Fist wiped his sweat and looked around him, but the shady-looking guys were nowhere to be seen.
All the Players around him had no intention of helping; instead, they felt annoyed by Fist's presence because they were already jealous of his luck.
Inside their hearts, the desire to see Fist dead was sprouting.
Fist saw their eyes and felt enraged.
'You guys want me to die because of the luck I had? This is so unfair… You all are terrible!'
His left hand started glowing in light blue.
The temperature around the corridor became freezing cold.
The Players surprisingly felt the cold and wondered where the hell the sudden cold came from.
''You guys want me to die?!'' His shout was heard by everyone, ''Fine, but you guys will die as well!''
The Players looked surprised and saw Fist punching the stone ground.
''Fist of Dominion!''
*BAM!*
