<h4>Chapter 190: Prison Bully Breid</h4>
“Breid...” Recognizing the voice at once, Thorso immediately withdrew from his fight with Gu Ding. He looked warily in the direction of the man. What he saw next was all the more disturbing when he noticed Breid was not alone. There were twelve powerhouses standing behind him.
Breid looked like he was in his early twenties; he was handsome, sickly pale, and thin. He looked like a harmless homebody who did not like going out much and was somewhat malnourished. No one would have thought that Breid, with his looks, was the real bully of Leoben Prison.
He was already a Rank-13 powerhouse before he was arrested. He was a monster powerhouse capable of destroying demigods and had a bounty of up to 70 billion Universe Credits. Each time he appeared, he would attract the higher-ups of Faye Cosmic Nation’s Army, causing them to pour out in full force. After his arrest, he was sentenced to five thousand years of prison by the federal court. Five thousand years was the limit of a demigod’s age, which meant that even if he became a demigod, he would remain in prison until he died of old age.
The twelve people behind him were bullies who ruled over the prison. Each of them was a Peak Rank-13 powerhouse. Even with the effects of the Magical Imprison Chain, they had far more sinisterbat effectiveness than others. The twelve, all of whom Breid had overpowered and made as his men were unquestionably loyal. It has to be said that even thest member who came to serve him had been with him for more than 200 years.
“Why, it’s Lord Warden. Long time no see,” Breid said cheerfully. He did not think that anyone on the could stop him from leaving, so he was not in a hurry.
Thorso did not respond to Breid’s greeting. Instead, he looked at Gu Ding who was not far away. “Do you know what you’ve done? There were more than eighty-eight thousand prisoners in this prison, all of whom are powerhouses that are Rank-10 and above. More than six thousand of them are of Rank-12 and above while more than two hundred of them are Rank-13. Do you know how much damage they’ll cause if they get out of prison?”
Gu Ding was speechless. He only wanted to leave the but ended up making such a big fuss.
“I was wondering why there were people escaping in front of us. It turned out that thisd set us free.” Breid’s eyes fell on Gu Ding and looked closely at him. “Would thisd be interested in joining us? You look like you have a lot of talent. Our crew has a lot of fighters but weck talented people like you.”
“Sorry, I’m not interested.” Gu Ding simply rejected him. He was far away from them, but he could smell great dangering from them. They must have been infused with long-term killings.
“No one can say no to our boss.” A scar-faced man behind Breid stepped forward. Nevertheless, Breid held out his hand to stop him.
“Cecil, we’re outside the prison. We’ll have to change some rules once we get out. Thisd gave us freedom, and we owe him one. What did I tell you earlier?” Breid nced sideways at scar-face.
“We will take vengeance and repay those who’ve been kind!” Cecil’s eyes fell on Gu Ding, and the murderous aura from before finally dissipated.
“You’ve given us freedom,d. We can grant you one condition for free.” Breid ignored Thorso’s presencepletely. “Tell me, what do you want?”
“I don’t need anything.” Gu Ding refused, and as he looked at Breid, Neptune sent him information about thetter and the members behind him. Gu Ding knew that they were people who valued human life as worthless. They were essentially the same as the Dark Sectors, and Gu Ding had no interest in working with them.
“Don’t you want to get out?” Judging from Gu Ding’s expression, Breid could tell that he was not impressed with his crew. He was probably an Interster Pirate too, but he seemed to have different ideas.
“I can get out myself,” Gu Ding said and looked at Thorso. If Thorso had stopped him, it would have made it very difficult for him to escape.
Breid seemed to realize something. He leaped and appeared between Gu Ding and Thorso. “You may go now,d. I have some business to settle with Lord Warden.”
Gu Ding was reluctant to owe Breid anything. However, considering that he had set them free earlier, he probably did not owe them anything. Gu Ding applied some force on his legs and sprang wildly toward the door.
The chains in Thorso’s hands began to twist again, trying to intercept Gu Ding. At that moment, Breid made a move without warning. He seemingly reached out his left hand slowly, and the chain that was after Gu Ding halted abruptly. Breid seemed to have no trouble holding the chain with the index and middle finger of his left hand.
By that time, Gu Ding had already bolted out of the prison gates and madly ran off in the distance. Hence, he did not witness the shocking scene. Gu Ding was aware of the horrors of Thorso chains, and without Neptune to unlock them, he had no powers to break free.
Breid managed to defuse that very sinister chain with two fingers, but then, something even more horrifying happened. Breid put a little force into his two fingers, and the chain broke into pieces before it disappeared in mid-air.
“Eh? !” Breid was a little surprised when he saw this happen. “The chain isn’t real? Nor is it made with your Righteous Force, surely it doesn’t...”
Just as Breid was about to guess the answer, a ck chain appeared in Thorso’s hand. At the end of the chain was a ball-shaped sphere that was the size of a fist.
“It seems like I was right in my conjecture that the chain from before was only a derivative of a demigod item. No wonder you were able to contend against demigods for more than ten minutes as a Rank-12. I thought you were a monster too, but now, I think I overestimated you.” Breid smiled with a hint of disdain.
“Breid, I know you’re a 1-star monster who can fight across threerge ranks, and I admit that there are only a handful of monsters in Faye Cosmic Nation. However, in Cosmic Sea, your talent is only considered excellent and not the best. At the very least, that young man’s Monster Ranking is beyond your imagination.” Thorso knew that Breid had always been conceited about his own strength.
“That young man? You mean thed? He doesn’t look like a teenager.” Breid’s interest in Gu Ding grew stronger. “Is he the legendary 5-star monster who can fight across sevenrge ranks?”
“He disguised his appearance. He’s really only a fifteen-year-old boy. Based on our spections, if we calcted only hisbat effectiveness, he can cross sixrge ranks inbat and can be considered a 4-star monster. However, if you include his taboo energy, he’s the king of monsters–a 7-star monster powerhouse!” Thorso’s statementpletely stunned Breid. “7-star monster powerhouses have unbelievably sinister luck in this world and have the secret blessings of deities. That’s why I didn’t go all out on him because I knew I wouldn’t be able to kill him.”
Breid gulped and his fingers began to tremble. Having been stimted, shback images began to surface from his memory.
In the images, a teenager, who looked like he was sixteen or seventeen years old, was pointing between his eyebrows with one finger. At that moment, he felt his body unable to move at all. Not to mention, he could clearly feel death approaching.
“How weak! I’m only a Rank-8 and he’s a Rank-10. He can’t even take an ordinary move or dodge.” The teenager eventually did not kill him.
“You’re a 5-star monster king, and he’s just an ordinary 1-star monster. You could at least wait for him to be fourrge ranks higher than you before expecting him to have the ability to fight you.” A girl holding an umbre slowly stepped forward.
“Unfortunately, there haven’t been any 7-star monster kings for nearly one hundred thousand years. I really look forward to a confrontation with him. Even if I end up being defeated, it would also be some kind of glory.” The young man’s eyes sparkled with a ming fighting spirit.
Breid slowly closed his eyes and took several deep breaths to calm himself down. He clearly remembered the time when he encountered a 5-star monster. It was because of that incident that he left Cosmic Sea and returned to Faye Cosmic Nation.
“Breid, you’re wrong about two more things,” Thorso continued.
“First, I did not have this demigod item when I intercepted the demigod. The distance between a Rank-13 and a demigod isparable to the difference inbat effectiveness of tworge ranks. Not to mention, I was only a Rank-12 Gene Body back then. I had no idea that there was such a thing as a Monster Ranking before the battle that spanned threerge ranks. It wasn’t until after the fight that I was told by my superior that I was a 1-star monster. It was also after that fight that I was specially trained by the Federal Government to be the warden of this prison.”
“Second, the chain in my hands is not a demigod-item but an iplete god item. Nevertheless, even if it is iplete, its powers are nothing a demigod-item canpare to.
“Therefore, no one shall escape from this prison today! Even a true demigod can only be suppressed by me!” The corners of Thorso’s mouth slightly curled. Then, his ck chain struck out wildly and instantly turned into a huge. It wrapped around the thirteen people at the same time.
Outside the prison, Gu Ding had run far enough. Since Thorso had not caught up with him, it suggested that Breid had stopped him. Looking around, Gu Ding saw a bathroom and darted toward it immediately.
After entering the cubicle and locking the door behind him, Gu Ding tore off his human-skin mask and reced it with another one that looked like a student’s. He then changed his wig, clothes, socks, and shoes. He even used some color-changing eye drops to dye his iris blue.
Gu Ding left the cubicle and looked in the mirror. Seeing nothing out of ce, he left the bathroom and headed for the port.
