Chapter 917 An Intense Heat A great intense heat could be felt from the ground and in the air, even though the citizens weren’t too close; watching from behind the barrier of cars that had been built. Through their shoes, it felt hot to the touch, burning them if they didn’t lift their feet. At the same time, a blazing heavy heat surrounded all around them. Naturally, everyone started to move back to avoid the build up of heat everywhere. At the same time, Clem and Ash had taken the helicopter and rose up in the air again. Thankfully, with their camera, they were able to zoom in and still get a view of the situation that was taking place down below. “What is this feeling.” Kai thought, getting up from the floor. Innu and Blake had managed to recover somewhat, not enough to fight, but enough to get up and walk on their own. They could hear the words of everyone from before, so they knew Gary was there. As everyone moved back from the heat, the Howlers members, Blake, and Innu all stayed closer, taking the heat, wishing the view what was going to happen with their own eyes. “Kai… he can do it right… Gary can win this.” Innu asked. “Of course he can.” Kai answered. “You know, from time to time, when we get new members, they ask me a question. Why aren’t I the leader, why is someone like Gary the leader instead of me…” Interrupted his talk, they saw a mass amount of flames erupt from the crater created on the street. Rocks were flung to the side and had come crashing down. Now standing in the centre, they could see Sin’s body standing strong. Despite all the times he had been hit, he was still able to stand, and he didn't look like his body was hurt at all, in fact, there was once again another change in Sin’s appearance. The wings had subsided in size, but they were burning brighter than ever on his back. They were glowing as if made of a pure single flame, moving as he breathed. The red feathers that covered his body, now had gone right up to his shoulders and part of his chest. His entire body was covered in the red flame feathers, apart from a small part on his chest, and his face that was still visibly human. The intense heat, that all of them could feel, it was coming directly off Sin’s body. “I guess his name of his gang isn’t just for show.” Blake said. “Just like a phoenix, every time this guy gets beaten or taken down he is rising again, and each time he’s rising even stronger.” “And how is Gary meant to beat someone who can’t die, and if anything, is getting stronger every time.” Innu asked back. “Stop saying sh*t.” Midwak commneted. “You guys aren’t even the ones fighting, and yet you're talking like this, and you're forgetting something, does Gary look like he’s hurt either?” [Gary Dem] [954/1000 HP] With Gary’s endurance at its maximum after defeating the Warden, and with his health increase, he wasn’t exactly the easiest person to kill either. Sin then looked at Gary. “I can’t believe, of all people it’s come to this, I thought I would only use this on the other Kings.” Right after finishing his sentence, Sin dashed forward and flames intensely pushed from his wings. He moved increadly fast and was right in front of Gary, but Gary was fast as well. He swung his arm for a punch with his strength and so did Sin, the two collided and a tunnel of flames erupted from behind Sin’s flames. His wings started to flap forward and Gary was being pushed back along the ground. Pulling away from the struggle, Gary then threw a strike at Sin’s side, it was a clean hit, hitting him and sending him away in the air, but quickly Sin had regathered himself with his wings. He started to dash through the air, flying at a fast speed and changing his path rather than coming straight forward, and now Sin was the one who struck Gary on his side. Gary had blocked the hit, but he saw that his HP still went down. [-4 HP] After blocking the hit, Sin continued to throw hit after hit at the fast speed. With each hit, a large tunnel of flames could be seen erupting in the air. It was a wild sight to see. To everyone watching, those on the camera did not look like a battle between two Altered, it looked like a battle between gods. Only then they could comprehend what they were witnessing with large flames coming out with each individual hit. Then, Sin pulled back, and out from his hands, quick fire balls had hit Gary one after the other. He blocked them with his guard once more. [-2 HP] [-2 HP] [-2 HP] [-2 HP] “Arghh!” Gary shouted. [Lethal Pounce] Quickly he dashed from side to side to side, and then kicked Sin right on his head, it felt like a solid hit, and Sin was sent back across the street, his body crashing into multiple cars until he had eventually stopped. “Haha, hahaha! Are you like me? Will you not die as well!” Sin was impressed, so many flames, so many powerful hits, and yet Gary still didn’t fall. However, Gary wasn’t so happy, because during the fight at hand, he had seen a message pop up. As Sin walked closer and the intense heat grew, the message had popped up again. [The intense heat is affecting you severely] [Your HP will gradually decrease] [Your Energy will gradually decrease] [HP 908/1000] 𝚏𝕣𝕖𝚎𝚠𝚎𝚋𝚗𝐨𝐯𝕖𝕝.𝕔𝐨𝕞 [Energy 640/1000] ‘I might not die in this fight, but if I run out of energy, I’m as good as dead.’
