Heroes' Prison Chapter 37

"They killed my mother, and I came here for revenge. Are you telling me you don’t play fair?" Huang Yi asked, looking at the Guard Captain.

"We’ve been more than fair," the Guard Captain said with a sense of righteousness. "All three of them said you stole their Spirit Cat, so it must be true. Now just hand it over, and we’ll leave your body intact. Isn’t that merciful enough?" He turned to the surrounding Half-Beast Players and asked, "Don’t you all agree?"

"Yes!" A Half-Beast Player chimed in, "Instakill, although you’ve contributed some National Honor Points, increasing our Attributes by 1%, it doesn’t even begin to atone for your oversight tonight! You’re a disgrace to us Chinese players! Not killing you would fail to appease the public’s anger! We must remove this blight for the people!"

"Yes! We must remove this blight for the people!" Several Half-Beast Players echoed in agreement.

At this point, Huang Yi fully understood that these Half-Beastmen were in cahoots; they were merely looking for an excuse to kill him and take his treasure. This was within his expectations; for the sake of treasure, there was nothing people would not do—it’s a flaw in human nature.

"Instakill, you may be strong, but we have so many people here, so many guards, you definitely can’t kill us all. You’re still well regarded among Chinese players, so just kill yourself now and save some face," a well-equipped player in the crowd persuaded. This player had not hidden his information, and being Level 35, he was considered one of the high-level players present.

"Instakill, you better run! If you’re killed by the Guard Captain, they probably won’t even find your body, and that would be even more embarrassing! With your current level, you won’t be able to get revenge by coming here; you’ll just be throwing your life away." A player of the Dwarf Race sincerely advised, not being a Half-Beast Player himself, he was able to view the situation more objectively.

"Instakill, as you can see, the Guard Captain’s judgment is fair and just. Hand over the treasure quickly; our patience has its limits," Chen Yuxi urged, brandishing his weapon.

Huang Yi shook his head. "Your judgment is nothing but a joke. Now, let me be the judge!" He stared at Chen Yuxi and the other two, and coldly said, "Chen Yuxi, Skull, Icy Greatsword, you three have committed a capital offense. I declare, you are condemned to death!"

As Huang Yi’s words fell, an immense thunderclap suddenly erupted in the sky, turning the bright starry night dim. The luminous moon and the colorful stars promptly vanished, replaced by an expanse of dark clouds.

The crowd was shaken, each person’s eyes widening in disbelief as they stared at the sky, shock written all over their faces.

They hadn’t expected a mere sentence from Huang Yi to change the colors of the heavens and earth!

With a "crack," a massive bolt of lightning, dazzlingly bright, struck down from the high heavens, turning the world a ghastly white. It was like a gleaming bayonet that had torn the sky apart, piercing through from another world!

The crowd trembled, as if witnessing the End of the World’s arrival, with the starry sky collapsing, the continents fracturing, living beings in torment, and all of creation facing a cataclysmic doomsday!

This was nothing short of Heaven’s Punishment, a divine retribution!

The enormous lightning bolt struck straight down towards Wind Forest Stronghold, splitting into four and striking Huang Yi, Chen Yuxi, Skull, and Icy Greatsword!

Immediately after, the four of them were pulled up, forcibly drawn into the high sky!

Everyone was stunned, gazing up at the four figures in the sky!

"Next, I will carry out your execution!" At that moment, Huang Yi’s voice came from the high skies, clearly resounding between heaven and earth, as if it was the will of the gods, proclaiming judgment upon all beings.

This was indeed Huang Yi’s Class Exclusive Skill—[Judgment]: it allowed him to judge an enemy, and after the judgment, he and the enemy would forcibly enter the Void Battlefield for a duel to the death, from which only the survivor could leave.

And at this moment, Huang Yi for the first time made use of his rare class—the [Judge], a magistrate who judges all living beings, a violent executioner. His words were the law, and violators would face his severe sanctions, entering a duel where the fight would not end until death!

The crowd on the ground stood motionless, gazing up at Huang Yi as if looking up to a Heavenly God incarnate. In that moment, everyone had forgotten the judgment that the Guard Captain had previously pronounced.

At this time, Chen Yuxi and his two companions were still in shock, not knowing what had happened, why the sky had suddenly undergone such drastic changes, and why they had suddenly been raised high into the air—they were completely dumbfounded!

No wonder, given that among the global 10 billion players, there were only slightly more than 5,000 rare class holders—an average of one out of every two million people. It was extremely difficult to witness the Class Exclusive Skill of [Judgment], which is so scarce; for them, this was the first time in their lives, and it was very likely the last time they would see an exclusive skill with their own eyes!

Just then, Huang Yi launched his attack!

Flames blazed upon his claws, accompanied by the dense clouds overhead, the thunderous flashes of lightning—it was as if he had transformed into a divine beast descending from the heavens, pouncing towards Chen Yuxi and his two companions!

"Pfft!" Huang Yi’s claw struck Skull’s neck!

Skull, being a frail mage, and having already lost a few levels and a few pieces of equipment was instakilled once again.

After Skull died, his body immediately fell from the sky, "Bang!" landing on the ground among the crowd, with his blood splashing onto the shocked faces of the people around him.

Just a moment ago, the person who had been alive and protected by the Chief Guard turned into a corpse before everyone’s eyes.

Huang Yi swiftly picked up a waist pendant that Skull had dropped and immediately chose to wear it!

This was his seventh piece of equipment!

The next moment, Huang Yi flashed in front of Chen Yuxi, grabbed his skull, and twisted with force!

"Crack," Chen Yuxi’s head was twisted a full circle, his face turned to his back, his neck bone brutally broken. His body fell down, landing heavily next to Skull’s corpse, shattering the stunned gazes of the people harshly.

Chen Yuxi’s death once again contributed a pair of bracers to Huang Yi!

Huang Yi put on the bracers, then turned his gaze towards the Icy Greatsword.

The Icy Greatsword immediately felt a bone-chilling cold and took several steps back in the void, his body trembling. Then, gritting his teeth, he hefted his great sword and rushed at Huang Yi, shouting as he charged, "Damn it, I’ll fight you to the death!"

Huang Yi dodged nimbly, avoiding the Icy Greatsword’s attack with ease, then slapped him on the neck. The red hot flames instantly surged up, igniting his hair and turning him into a man of fire.

"Ahh!" The Icy Greatsword screamed, quickly turning into a pile of ashes that scattered in the wind, leaving behind only a ring that Huang Yi snatched into his hand.
