Chapter 284 'Duel to the Death'!

"You bloody traitors! What are you doing?" Brody looked at his men with hatred, not expecting to be so obviously betrayed by these people.

He had founded the Scarlet Syndicate with some of these men. They had been through many difficult times together and had recently reached a good position.

But after their years of history together, they suddenly abandoned him... That would make anyone angry!

One of Brody's latest companions then opened his mouth. "Boss, Cesar has a 3rd-stage beast. What should we do? I'm sorry, but your situation now depends only on you. There's nothing we can do to help you."

One of Brody's oldest companions sighed and said. "You have known about the risks since we started this journey. If your agreement with Cesar was so fragile, I'm sorry. It was your mistake, but I will not die with you."

These were common criminals. They took risks in exchange for possible returns. But no return on the horizon could make them stand up to Cesar.

Cesar was a monster in his own right. At level 3, he was probably capable of killing them all single-handedly. But with a 3rd-stage beast on his side, the leader of the Mazzanti family was an even more formidable opponent for the leaders of the Scarlet Syndicate.

"You cowards! You'll rot in the underworld for this!" Brody shouted as he glared at the men.

But his words did not frighten any of the men. They weren't afraid of what would happen to them after they died. All that mattered was now, and right now, Brody had no chance of doing anything to them.

From these men's point of view, with Cesar looking for Brody's head and the 3rd-stage basilisk on the roof, the leader of the Scarlet Syndicate was already dead, and he would soon find this out!

Vicente watched Brody's situation in silence, seeing only the normal things that happen between criminals. But he didn't see his family as superior to these men. Maybe his men were more loyal to him because he always cultivated that in his house. But Vicente believed he could lose his supporters if he were in Brody's place.

After all, such groups were never 100% reliable. If you wanted to eliminate the risk of running into situations like this, you had to be strong and indispensable to the continuity of the group.

Brody wasn't such a person and naturally broke into a cold sweat when he saw nothing to stop Vicente from acting against him.

"Cesar! You'll pay for this! Threatening your leader will cause you to lose control of your elements!" Brody swung, feeling Vicente's magical fluctuation, noting how strong this young man had become in such a short time.

From what Brody felt, Vicente's magical fluctuation was more substantial than his own, even though the young man was only at level 3 Acolyte.

'What level is that bastard's talent?' Brody broke out in a cold sweat, seeing Vicente certainly had a talent superior to his own.

Vicente saw the fear in Brody's eyes as this man threatened him with the deal they had. "It won't reach me. I play by the rules, my dear leader. I act only for the good of the Scarlet Syndicate. The faction is limited under your leadership. With me in charge, we'll reach a truly relevant level!"

"Nonsense! You don't care about the Scarlet Syndicate!" Brody snapped, seeing that Cesar was disingenuous enough to say those words to his face.

Vicente laughed. "You made the rules of your faction, my leader. You did it to keep the power in your hands, right? You shouldn't complain now just because you failed." 

The deal between Vicente and Brody was essentially based on promises of returns from the Mazzanti family group and protection from the Scarlet Syndicate group. Other than that, only three lines in the contract talked about one side acting against the other.

Since Brody wanted to have room to act against Vicente if the young man proved dangerous to him, he was forced to leave room for Vice to act against him as long as he followed the rules of the Scarlet Syndicate and didn't act for the bad of the faction.

"Time to pay for the risks you took!" Vicente changed his tune and demonstrated his powers to the six men on the roof of the Scarlet Syndicate headquarters.

Brody's eyes widened as he saw Vicente's second pentagram and realized why this young man was so much stronger and had progressed so quickly.

He didn't know anything about what could happen when a 2nd stage magician was able to absorb a yellow pentagram. He wasn't a scholar. But when he saw it before him, he thought the whole explanation of Vicente's powers was related to such a magical essence.

"Shit!"

The other men were also shocked as they jumped back, feeling the effects of Vicente's powers on their bodies, even though the target was Brody, not them.

Meanwhile, they saw Brody's body begin to levitate under the influence of Vicente, who quickly altered the electromagnetic field around the man to prevent his escape.

Using his ability to manipulate metallic particles, Vicente formed several needles around Brody as the metals in the man's body flowed through his body as if they were liquids.

In an instant, two metal gauntlets covered his hands, preventing Brody from moving his mana through that part of his body.

"Let me go, you bastard!" Brody shouted as he felt how strong Cesar already was, able to completely subdue him even though he was 2 levels stronger.

"Brody, you're responsible for all of this," Vicente said as he floated more than 50 silver needles around Brody, waiting for the right moment to strike. "You forced me to join the Scarlet Syndicate, which got me into trouble with the Defiant Tyranny. So, this is for bringing trouble to my family."

As he finished saying these words, Vicente moved all his needles simultaneously, accelerating them so much that even the man's level 5 body could not withstand it.

In a single instant, Brody felt more than 30 needles penetrate his body and lodge inside him while the other needles passed through him.

"Aaaaaaagh!" He screamed in pain as he felt several of his organs pierced while the taste of blood surged through his mouth.

At the same time, dozens of places on his body began to bleed as he rapidly lost his strength.

How could someone like him withstand so many attacks at once?

Even if those needles were very thin, the damage caused to several of his vital organs would be enough to kill him in a few minutes. But with the needles inside him and under Vicente's control, he soon felt the worst sensation of his life, having his insides destroyed by his opponent.

Vicente moved his hands and formed something like a crusher with his metal inside Brody's body. Without mercy, he destroyed his opponent's heart, causing a lot of blood to flow from the wounds in this person's body, which would soon cause him to lose consciousness.

In this way, Scarlet Syndicate leader, Brody Wright, reached his limit and died at the hands of Vicente shortly after the young man returned from his hunt in The Rocky Gorge!

News of this incident would soon spread through Millfall, along with the triumphant return of Cesar Mazzanti and a 3rd-stage beast!
