Chapter 1012 Interrupted Skill? Before Gary had jumped down to the cage, before he had made a decision to punch Harvor, he knew the weight of his fists. It was the reason why he hadn’t jumped in sooner, because him being the leader of the Howlers meant his actions reflected on everyone in the Howlers and those that lived in Slough. He needed to think of the consequences of his fists. So, him being revealed in a place like this was always a possibility, and now that he had been seen, it just meant he needed to get things done. *[Partial transformation]* His legs started to change, and his shoes even expanded in size. Right after, Gary kicked off his feet, charging for Harvor once again. “If I have to take out another King because they think they can do whatever they want, then so be it!” *[Claw Drain]* Gary’s claws had extended as he swung his hands, swiping at Harvor. He hadn’t activated his fire attribute, only using his normal claws. Swinging them, they sliced through the air, hitting nothing. Even though Harvor had been hit several times before this, now his eyes were locked on and his hands slightly in front of him. Gary continued to swipe, but each of his attacks was missing. ‘I’m not slow, I’m far from being slow, especially after I consumed Sin, but he’s avoiding everything!’ Gary thought in shock. He didn’t understand it, but the more he looked at Harvor, it appeared as if the man didn’t even blink, watching every single little detail of Gary. ‘Then, I’ll do the one thing that did work!’ *[Lethal Pounce]* Gary’s knees bent slightly as he prepared for his speed to exponentially increase. Just as he burst from his feet, Harvor grabbed both of his arms, stopping Gary before he could even move. *[Lethal Pounce has been interrupted]* “What the?” As Gary saw this message, he was lifted into the air, and then Harvor slammed him right into the canvas. It was heavy, sinking them deeper into the floor just like the attack with Jayden. [-34] ‘That hurt even more than last time… and he stopped me before I could even perform Lethal Pounce, that’s never happened before!’ “I saw your fight with Sin, I saw your Altered form, it’s some type of wolf,” Harvor said. “But right now, you’re fighting like sh*t. What’s the matter, are you not fighting hard enough because your town isn’t on the line?” “Do you want me to send the whole One Gang to Slough and cause a rampage just like Sin did!” Harvor said as he went to punch his fist down right into the base of Gary’s stomach. Gary’s eyes glowed red, as he grabbed onto it with both of his hands, pushing back. “Now, I won’t feel so bad when I eat you up as well!” Gary said as he pushed with his legs and kicked Harvor off from his body. He quickly flipped himself back onto his feet with the momentum of his body, ready to go at Harvor again. --- The fighting on the outside hadn’t stopped either, as Austin was going full force against Apollo. Both of them had transformed into their Altered state. Austin’s upper body looked like that of a bull, his large nostrils flaring steam out from them. Meanwhile, Apollo’s body was mostly covered in fur, with his limbs being slightly larger than anything else. The two of them then charged at each other, grabbing hold of each other’s shoulders. They were grabbing at the back of the neck. It looked as if the two of them were in a wrestling match, each trying to get a better hold of the other, trying to push them down. “Do you need help?” Park said, as he avoided a swing from a strange tail of an Altered, then rushed in and delivered a strong punch across one of the gang member’s faces. “Just keep them off my back!” Austin said. “I want this to be a fair match!” “I didn’t realize that Gary had managed to find some strong friends on the outside!” Apollo said. “Hey!” Austin said as steam continued to grow from his nose. “Don’t speak Gary’s name like you know him. If you’re fighting on the other side, then pay attention!” Austin pushed his neck up, forcing Apollo’s hands down as he delivered an uppercut punch straight to Apollo’s head. He stumbled slightly before regaining his footing and charging in. As he did, he grabbed onto Austin’s waist. It was then that he lifted Austin in the air and performed a suplex, slamming the large minotaur Altered on the ground. Austin was hurt, but he was far from being out of the fight. “Why do we keep running into stronger and stronger people?” Austin said. --- Since Gary was going head-to-head with Harvor, Xin finally decided it was her time to make a move, and she rushed forward, heading right for the men holding onto Jayden. As she rushed forward, two of the Zodiacs noticed her coming toward them. As he saw Xin gliding across the room, one of the Zodiacs known as Roy lifted his leg, and it transformed into a triangle-like point, while having reptile scales on the end of them. Xin crashed right into the large foot, her whole body electrifying itself, but it seemed like Roy’s whole body was unaffected as Roy continued using his foot. “You should know me right, I’m ranked 8th in the AFC,” Roy claimed. “Xin, it’s not going to be so easy to take me out, and the guy next to me is JJ, ranked 12th. The One Gang is filled with the strongest and most skilled Altered; you will never get close to your brother!”ch out to me. If I’m not too busy, I tend to reply back.
