Austin didn't resist.In fact, he wasn't even in the state to resist.Of course, he didn't have the intention to resist either.When a stray dog barely clinging to life wandered the streets, it wouldn't expect whether the one who might take it in was kind or evil.All Austin wanted was to stay alive!The roar of the powerful trucks filled his ears as it moved forward.Outside the window, there was a vast expanse of white snow.Yet inside the car, it was as warm as early spring.The fireplace emitted warmth.It gradually dispelled the cold from Austin's bodyMelodious music filled the air.There were at least a dozen burly men of various races. Holding glasses in their hands, they laughed and danced in the spacious area.The air was filled with the pungent scent of alcoholAlcohol could dispel the cold in a place like this.But Austin remained slumped in the corner.He didn't move or look around because he remembered the conversation these people had just had.He was a p
Austin's eye twitched uncontrollably.Brian's implications were clear to him now.He couldn't tolerate such compromisesBrian gently patted Austin's shoulder and got up to dance with his teammates.Suddenly, Austin asked, "Brian, are we really never getting out of here?""Mm-hmm," Brian replied.Unwillingly, Austin asked, "Has anyone ever successfully escaped?"It was just a simple question, but it made Brian pause in his tracks. His body trembled slightly.After a two-second pause, he suddenly lowered his voice."Ten years ago, someone did manage to escape. That's the only one I know of since I've been in charge."Then, Brian laughed."Of course, if you can escape The Grave Prison, we won't pursue you anymore. But kid, I advise you to stay put in The Grave Prison. Trying to escape is just asking for death!" Austin watched Brian's receding figure.A smile gradually formed at the corner of his lips.A determined gaze flashed across his dark eyes. He decided to live like
Under the escort of the patrol team, Austin staggered toward The Grave Prison.The warmth brought by the alcohol Brian had given him had dissipated by now.His limbs were stiff and numb.Despite this, his gaze remained firm as he looked at the looming prison. He was filled with a surge of determination."I have to stay alive. Since someone made it out alive 10 years ago, why can't I do it?"Mom, Cecily, Aldus, Ezra, wait for me. Wait for me to come home!"Grandma and the Redmonts, your schemes will surely fail. I will stand before you again."…Austin continuously reminded himself. As The Grave Prison loomed closer, the towering city enveloped Austin in its shadow.It felt as if the once-clear skies were being overshadowed by dark clouds.With a rumble, the heavy alloy gate slowly rose.It was nearly a meter thick!Obviously, those high walls and thick gates were not for wind protection. It was to prevent prisoners from escaping The Grave Prison."Brian, I didn't expect
It felt as if everyone would become tense upon entering The Grave Prison.There was light ahead."Kid, we're almost there. Remember, it's the survival of the fittest. Don't die too quickly because of your tolerance."Brian finally spoke, his tone heavy.Austin suddenly smiled.He looked at Brian with determination. "I will walk out of here."Brian was visibly shocked. He then shrugged and chuckled. "Although I know it's unlikely to happen, I believe in you."As they entered the bright area, Austin instinctively squinted.Before his vision could recover, he was greeted by a deafening roar of cheers."He's here! We have a newcomer! My goodness. How many years has it been?""Nashville, this fresh guy is mine tonight. You can't compete with me. He belongs to me!""Get lost! I have roamed the battlefield. I can give you decapitated heads, but I won't give you a person!"…Gradually, Austin's vision cleared.He frowned in confusion.He saw a number of cells. Each of them was q
"Fuck!" Nashville suddenly cursed, his expression fierce.He was the boss of this cell.He was the one who usually said such words to the others.How dare this newcomer challenge his authority?Instantly, Nashville charged furiously toward Austin like a tiger released from its cage.Bang!The sudden powerful attack sent Austin flying backwards.He crashed heavily into the cell wall.The next second, cheers erupted in the sector."Nashville, are you a pussy? You didn't even kill him.""Oh my god, Nashville just met his match! Watch out, Nashville. Don't lose your title as the bloodthirsty wolf.""Kill him, Nashville! Kill him!"The shouts, cheers, and taunts echoed back and forth.The entire sector seemed to be engulfed in revelry. Voices were roaring. After one successful strike, Nashville's fighting spirit soared. He triumphantly raised his fists and roared like a wild beast before the cell door.Austin's expression turned cold and stern. A killing intent flashed acros
The roar of the prisoners completely provoked Nashville.He was once a battlefield god. He had dominated the sands and left countless corpses in his wake.Yet now, he couldn't even kill a newcomer in this tiny prison cell."Go to hell!"Nashville's roar echoed through the cell as his massive body lunged forward. The muscles in his right arm bulged as he unleashed his deadliest punch.The punch carried a deafening buzz as it aimed to end Austin's life. In an instant, the entire sector fell silent.All the prisoners stared at them with anticipation.Meanwhile, Austin narrowed his eyes.He fixed his gaze on the incoming fist like a hawk.As Nashville's fist was about to land on him, his body shot forward like a taut bow. He narrowly dodged Nashville's punch by inches.Then, with a resounding thud, Austin forcefully struck Nashville's lower body with a punch.He delivered a decisive blow. "Ah!"Nashville's body trembled in agony as he let out a horrifying scream. He despera
Cecily knew that Austin wasn't short of money.This man was never stingy when it came to her and the people around him.But why would a guy who kept hitching rides from others suddenly buy a Bugatti Veyron?Even the most standard models cost at least 25 million dollars!Based on her understanding of Austin, although he was rich, he wouldn't simply splurge on unnecessary stuff.In fact, money was quite important to Austin.He might be generous to her and his close ones because they were more important to him than money.But when it came to himself, Austin was always tight-fisted. The confusion and doubts in Cecily's mind grew stronger.A loud roar echoed down the street as Cecily arrived at the company's entrance.Like a bolt of lightning, the Bugatti Veyron captured the attention of everyone on the street before finally stopping before Cecily."Cecily, how do you like my new car?"Austin got out of the car and gently opened the door for Cecily."It looks great."Cecily's
Vincent and Yannis could both afford to hire a caregiver.However, Yannis was worried that the caregiver might not be able to provide Vincent with proper care. So, she decided to take matters into her own hands.It was the first time in her life feeling this exhausted. Since she was young, she had been pampered by the Clarks. It was almost unbelievable that she was doing all the hands-on work.But, against all odds, Yannis did it!It was all because the person she was taking care of was Vincent. "Get out!"With a cold expression, Vincent put an end to Yannis' words.Yannis trembled, and her face fell.Finally, she put down the apple and fruit knife in her hand before forcing out a gentle smile. "Take care and rest well. I'll come see you again tomorrow." Vincent's expression remained indifferent as he watched Yannis leave, but he was struggling inside.As soon as the door closed, Vincent suddenly raised his hand and slapped himself."Damn it, I've messed up big time this
