Chapter 1120: Chapter 954: Monkfish Bait

To find his fellow townsman, he would have to delve deep into D Zone, and only a few trusted managers knew the way to the deeper layers of the prison district.

These managers were called "Judges" by the inmates of D Zone. In this world where only the law of the jungle is revered, Judges often act as mediators, resolving conflicts and disputes when they arise.

Of course, the methods of mediation in the lawless zone are quite unique.

As Song Lan saw at that moment, he sat amidst the cheering crowd in the surrounding stands, barely able to discern that this was originally a large sports stadium, now transformed into a bloody and murderous gladiatorial arena.

When disputes were irreconcilable, both parties would enter the arena under the witness of the coiling coils, resolving matters in ways akin to those in primitive societies.

The victor would seize everything belonging to the loser, who would have to leave D Zone in shame, becoming a lowly C Zone slave amidst the laughter of other inmates.

However, even in D Zone, there were not many disputes worth risking everything to resolve, and the gladiatorial arena was mostly deserted. To stir things up, the Judge of D3 Block wracked his brain and came up with some interesting competition formats.

What Song Lan and Lu Xiang were watching was the recent highly watched King’s elimination match.

It was said that this event had attracted the attention of the rulers, with the victor getting the opportunity to be personally received by the rulers and earn the title of Judge.

The reason why the two of them were there was simple: one of the competing contestants was their old friend.

On this matter, both Song Lan and Lu Xiang’s judgments were wrong.

Mr. Emperor was neither held up at the airport security of the fourth area due to his lethal cyborg body nor was he instantly killed by some obscure character on his first day, ending up as a pathetic stepping stone to highlight the "extremely savage" inmates.

To describe his current status as being in the limelight would not be an overstatement.

Posters of him were everywhere in D3 Block, and the airship terminology had given him the title of "The Strongest Modified Person of the United Government." Since entering the prison, he had successively fought 18 matches, providing a shock to all inmates on behalf of the United Government with 18 victories and no losses.

Song Lan was genuinely happy for his old friend.

He had always felt that Mr. Emperor’s prowess was doubtless, it was just bad luck recently, encountering opponents who were beyond his level, that made it seem as though the strongest Six Stars rescuer of the United Government kept losing.

RT6’s evaluation of him was very objective.

Standing at the pinnacle of humanity, after undergoing cyborg modification, defeating opponents of the delta level was not a difficult task.

With a current record of 18 wins and no losses, it should be enough to change the views of those who suspected Emperor had become a comedian.

This time, Mr. Emperor’s opponent didn’t seem very strong.

A frail body, shivering, plainly mismatched with the rugged style of the entire prison, the fully mechanized Emperor towered over her like a small mountain.

With just one step forward from him, the frail girl was frightened into sitting on the ground, covering her face with her hands as if that was all she could do at the moment.

"Don’t kill me, I don’t want to, they forced me, I didn’t want to come here at all!"

The girl muttered to herself, lost in fear.

Lu Xiang, who had used his privileges to complete a scan, leaned in and explained softly to Song Lan, "The records show she’s an inmate from B Area, a former military industrial scientific research team leader, who has shown good behavior during her imprisonment and could apply to move to A Area just by keeping her head down for another month. She really shouldn’t be here."

This scene also caused doubts to arise in Song Lan, who had been feeling happy for his good friend Emperor.

If the opponents in those 18 victories were all weaklings, someone would definitely question the validity of the winning streak.

"Ms. Devin Hona, why are you here?"

Emperor obviously recognized the other party and stepped forward to ask.

Huona’s time in prison wasn’t long. Two years ago, she fell from power due to internal strife within the united military industry and was subsequently sent here by the opposing faction. However, for these corporate people, they should at least know some prison rules, like serving sentences obediently in B Area for three years before applying to spend the twilight years in A Area.

"It was them, someone broke into B Area, asking if we knew anything about you..."

"Who are they?"

"Stupid!"

Devin Hona’s voice suddenly changed, replaced by a shrill, piercing sound, "This is what you get for lacking vigilance!"

Between them, spikes emerged from the ground and pierced Emperor’s chest in a blink, and as the ground cracked open, the opponent in this match finally revealed his true form.

"Is this... thing a transformed human?"

Song Lan exclaimed from the stands.

As the ground of the gladiatorial arena collapsed, what appeared before them was a gaping abyssal maw, with inky tentacles in place of teeth, and the smell of blood and decay reaching all the way to the stands.

This ferocious monster clearly spoke human language.

Certainly, compared to this creature, those Aberrations corrupted by their belief in the Moon God of the Lunar Eclipse Sect seemed conservative in appearance. Although their faces and figures were distorted, at least they retained human contours. This creature, however, looked more like a species of devourer.
