Domination System

Chapter 75

"Get me what you can find on the Lin Sect" Lord plato ordered his personal assistant. The Lin sect was both well known and unknown. Everyone knew who they were and their capabilities but anything further than that was a massive brick wall. And since the sect hardly participated in anything major, no one had bothered to find out anything on them...but, that just changed today.

"Yes, Azariel" the personal assistant bowed a bit. Unlike the other, he had a relationship with Lord plato that ran back tens of years ago. He had no need for formalities when addressing someone he had know for decades. He was there for all three of Lord plato's children births.

Lord plato nodded his head and took a bottle of wine from the storage. He couldn't stomach seeing his son in that condition. His wife was a little more hard hearted than he was so she had stayed back to keep watching. But him...he couldn't afford lose asmodieus, not like he lost the first....

.....

The rush was real. Bloodthirsty folks roamed about the white space, thirsty for kills. It remained about one hour and some minutes before the challenge ended. They had to rank up points before that time came. And the only way to rank up points? KILL!

....

Lin xue looked at asmodieus with greedy eyes. This man lay helpless right beside him with a relatively sizeable amount of points which was pretty tempting to the average candidate, Lin xue included.

He knew asmodieus wasn't waking anytime soon. The challenge would probably be over before he'd regain consciousness and healing fully would take even longer.

'The best option would just be to do away with him as quickly as I can' Lin xue thought as he held his pocket knife and inched closer to asmodieus's neck, his hands shivering. His eyes were full on devilish as he stared at the sleeping man. One could only restrain so much....

The knife pierced the sky smooth skin just enough to draw out some small drops of blood. Asmodieus' eyes squinted in response to the sudden stimuli.

Seeing that, Lin xue's hands suddenly stopped moving as he blinked multiple times. He dropped the knife and looked at his hands as his eyes teared up. He just couldn't do it...he couldn't take his life so.

....

As soon as Lord Lee saw Lin xue's intent to kill asmodieus his eyes brightened up. The time had come, this man would experience the same pain he felt.

"C'mon do it...c'mon" Lord Lee whispered with his hands crossed in front of his face.

"Fool!" Lord Lee exasperated throwing his hands up in the air. The Lin sect had failed to kill asmodieus!

....

Lin xue fixed his dressing and made sure his weapons were well placed. He couldn't find any proper shelter for asmodieus as everywhere was white empty space, it was hard even finding any walls. So he just brought out a tent from his storage ring and placed asmodieus in it. He had to get some kills to add to his points.

Taking one last look at the bruised man, Lin xue gave off an air of determination then vanished.

....

Justin lay helplessly on the white floor with no visible protection. The hole in his side had long since closed and there were no visible signs of any injuries on his body. But even with that, he still wasn't conscious.

Suddenly the sound of footsteps could be heard as a large man's frame cast a shadow on Justin. The weapon in his hand twice larger than a man's head and twice heavier than a man's body. He took in deep breath as he stared at the unconscious man with the number hundred and twenty right above his head.

Bending down, the man slowly picked Justin up on his shoulders. Thankfully, a wall was nearby so he carried him over there and placed him. His couldn't find his storage ring when he entered the dimension so he couldn't bring up a shelter. Although, some other had theirs on them, it seemed like the dimension displaced people's storage ring on a random.

He had no idea what had happened here. The black and red fluids scattered about the floor were signs of a battle. He had tried to interfere earlier but it was like there was this invisible forcefield separating the light from the dark so he couldn't crossover. When he finally could, all he could see was Justin alone.

He had no worries of gaining more points since he had made up by killing some unfortunates along the way when Justin was still battling.

*One hour left till Challenge ends.

00:59:58* A voice suddenly rang around the whole dimension making the blood thirsty even thirstier.

Eyes literally got blood red as people attacked people risking their lives like canon fodder. This was an opportunity they couldn't miss. No one was wiling to wait another ten years just to have a slim chance of participating again.

....

Blood curdling screams were heard in some places as people violently dropped dead. A fan sliced through their neck, beheading them straight away.

Lin xue was filled with rage, these people only served as a means of acting out that rage. They were in the right place at the wrong time.

Some fled, some stayed behind to fight, some pleaded, but one thing was constant...all died.

....

*00:00:1...Stage one Challenge one ended.

Records: Two hundred and five dead, Three Hundred and fifty-two alive, One hundred and ten eliminated. Total surviving candidates: One hundred and forty-two.

CONGRATULATIONS TO ALL ONE HUNDRED AND FORTY-TWO CANDIDATES. YOU HAVE SUCCESSFULLY MADE IT THROUGH TO STAGE ONE CHALLENGE TWO: HUNTER'S GATHERING.

THERE WILL BE A REST PERIOD OF TWO HOURS.

REST PERIOD STARTING IN 3...2...1....

REST PERIOD HAS BEGUN

01:59:59*

The numbers were the numbers of all present in in the zugan dimension. They were mixed up even though they came from different cities.

Sighs were released as some people collapsed to the floor. They had finally been relieved of the pressure.

Some broke into tears as they slowly disappeared from the eyes of everyone leaving black dust behind. Set on making their appearance outside the zugan dimension once more. They had been eliminated.

....

Lin xue closed up his fan and tucked it into its holding. He had gone up to fifty one points during his rampage earning him a straight qualifier into the next challenge.

He went into the tent with a pill in his hand. He had gotten that from the storage ring of one he had killed. He recognised it as a health stabilising pull so he intended to feed it to asmodieus.

"Asmodieus?" the tent was empty! The mattress he had layed asmodieus on was neat, no one could even be seen there.

He began to panic. Could someone have killed him when he was gone? But there was no sign of blood in here, no sign of any killing...only dust....

"oh...." the light of realization hit him. There was an amount of dust on the mattress. Asmodieus had been eliminated. He just remembered now that asmodieus hadn't made it up to thirty points.

Lin xue gently relaxed on the mattress with his eyes closed, he needed some rest.

....

Outside the Zugan dimension

People were ejected from the portal in the air one after the other. These were the ones who had been eliminated from the first stage.

A guard from the plato house got ready to receive asmodieus. Asmodieus had been unconscious when he had disappeared from the dimension so he would vern much be unconscious as he came up. Given the height of the portal, it easy a death fall if one was unprepared especially someone still bruised up from his injuries.

Immediately asmodieus apeared, the guard stretched out his arm. He had a skill which soften the impact of forces coming at him. He normally used it as a defense technique but it was also really good for this type of situation.

Suddenly, a bubble covered the guard as he floated and in a moment he was out of the way and thrown far away from asmodieus.

Gasps of shock radiated from the crowd. They had all seen what had happened. Lord Lee had personally attacked that guard!

Asmodieus mother promptly reacted to the situation and she violently stood up and in a flash she was gone. A bright light object heading for the falling asmodieus, impacting in air and then redirecting to come to a balance smoothly on the ground.

Ariandel held asmodieus in her arms with her eyes directed at lord Lee. Motherly instinct overflowing from her being. Killing intent violently forming as she stared at him.

Lord Lee redirected his gaze like nothing had happened and kept focusing on the screen. This attack may not have succeeded...doesn't mean the next wouldn't.

....

Justin's eyes opened to the sight of a dimly lit place with the grounds covered by thick green fog.

"System?" he called

A white light illuminated the whole area dispersing the fog in the process. *Here I am*

"what the f**k?" immediately the system spoke the white light had appeared. What sort of occurrence was that?

*Do you wish to know the meaning of f**k?* the system asked.

"wait...did I say that out loud?" Justin asked in suspicion. He was pretty sure he never meant to say what he said out loud. Usually, the system wouldn't respond to his inner thoughts unless they were directly directed at it. But this time it just responded even though he wasn't referring to it directly.

*No. You are currently in the conscious unconscious state. Host has embodied his mind, leaving the physical body to rest. Hosts thoughts are his words*

"what the f**k are you saying?? what the f**k is conscious unconsciousness??" isn't this shittery rambling of the highest order?! "where are my legs? oh god...my di...where the f**k is my p***s??" from his waist down was nonexistent. He was just floating!

*....*

"Where the f**k is my p***s!!!!"
