All Chapters of Winner Takes All: Chapter 491 - Chapter 500

"You can think of the 1st district's leader as… a special case even when it comes to our prison."Barette gradually lowered his voice as his eyes seemed to have lost their light. He chuckled and continued, "Austin, can you imagine an inmate being treated even better than the chief warden in this prison?"Austin felt as if a storm was raging within his heart.He tried his best to suppress his fear, but his fists were so tightly clenched that veins were popping out of his skin.Would an inmate still be considered an inmate if he was treated even better than the wardens?The self-mockery on Barette's face became even more apparent as he continued, "The leader of the 1st district has held onto the throne for two decades by overwhelming power alone. He had gained more authority than that of the chief warden over time. But then again, he could not freely enter and exit the prison."He's probably the only inmate that could achieve such a level of… 'Freedom.' And he's also basically the

A satisfied smile appeared on Austin's face as he ended the phone call.He took a deep breath as he finally let out all of the pressure that he had accumulated within his mind and body. "As long as I make it to the 15th… I'll finally become Austin Campbell! All of the Pearson family's efforts will finally be worth it!"His soft murmur echoed across his hospital ward.Meanwhile, Cecily and the others had not yet left the hospital after leaving Austin's room.They had taken a detour to visit Vincent in another hospital ward.Cecily entered Vincent's ward to find an empty room with a messy desk. "You really hurt Yannis' feelings, you know?"Vincent had both his hands on the back of his head as he nonchalantly replied, "So what? Makes it easier for both of us, anyway. Guess it's karma for her being so nice to a murderer like me."Cecily was left speechless, while Dahlia and Aldus were both shaking their heads.Ezra smiled and scolded, "You brat, I know what's really on your mind."

The surveillance room felt as if it had frozen over.Everyone, including Brian, seemed extremely stern in the presence of the sudden visitor.In front of Brian was a man dressed in a black robe.A huge hood covered his face, revealing only his chin with a bit of stubble.Noticing the silence, the robed man prompted an answer. "Hmm?"Brian immediately responded, "I'm afraid it would be difficult for him to make it."He had lowered his head out of respect as he spoke.Brian could tell that Austin went into the fight with the 8th district's leader with the knowledge of his opponent's weaknesses beforehand.Austin had only won two matches at this moment, and defeating the rest of his seven opponents would not be as easy as simply learning about their weaknesses—let alone the final opponent who was standing in front of Brian right now.The first two deathmatches had been favorable for Austin after he realized his opponents' weaknesses.As the deathmatches went on, the rest of the

Austin looked up at Brian with astonishment.He wondered why Brian would help him make it out of The Grave Prison.Brian smiled as he could tell what Austin was thinking about. "Don't be surprised. I just owe Aldus one, now we're even."Austin pursed his lips, still confused about the sudden interaction. He had always been curious about the relationship between Aldus and Brian.He could only wonder why Brian had complete knowledge about how Aldus fought, as well as why Brian had decided to help him cheat in the deathmatch."Thank you," Austin decided to think about such questions another day as he headed toward the 7th district.He took a look at the gift from Brian as he walked.He immediately frowned when he realized that Brian had given him a mirror.Austin was utterly confused as he stared at the mirror in his hand.It was something that was not allowed within the prison because it could easily be used as a lethal weapon."Is Brian telling me to kill Anaconda with this?"

Anaconda laughed at Austin. "Are you implying that I'm stupid enough to look up at the lights to blind myself?"Austin smiled as he realized why Brian had given him a small mirror.He took a few deep breaths as he slowly took on a fighting stance while enduring the severe pain from his broken ribs.Anaconda seemed to be already bored of the fight as he let out a sigh before sticking out his tongue once more. "How pointless. I thought you would have been a challenge when I heard that you defeated Barette. I guess I overestimated both of you."At the same time, Austin used up all of his strength to rush toward Anaconda.Anaconda was taken by surprise as he never expected Austin to make such a proactive move."Now die!" He raised his arms as he rushed toward Austin to launch another barrage of attacks.Even though Austin was already guarding himself, two powerful strikes from Anaconda had still managed to make him stagger.The slight pause in his movements had caused him to lose a
