Chapter 861 Distributing Strength
There were a lot of decisions to make with the new stats and p.a.w.n points that Gary had managed to achieve, and it was best if he used them now because at any moment, he felt like something was coming.
The fight against Ice was far tougher than the fight against the North and the South leader, but all of this was for more to come.
‘First, I will allocate the stat points,’ Gary thought as he tapped his system, giving himself a few points in two areas.
The first was his endurance.
[Endurance 88 >>> 90]
‘The strength difference at every ten is increased, but as the numbers get higher, the difference isn’t felt as much. Either way, as I’m fighting tougher enemies like that of Ice, Endurance seems to be a big factor in getting hurt less.’
[Dexterity 82 >>> 85]
‘With that, rather than being able to hit harder, I need to be able to hit more and get my attacks in, so I’ll increase my dexterity.’
As for the p.a.w.n points, Gary then went ahead and used two of them on his health. Each p.a.w.n point at this stage only gave him an additional 10 HP, now giving him a total of 320 HP.
He didn’t have issues running out of energy during fights, but he had gotten quite low with his fight with Ice, so it made sense for him to increase that as well. Due to the current message, he could no longer use p.a.w.n points to increase his regular stats either.
Still, there was a reason why he had kept 30 p.a.w.n points because there was someone else he could use them for, the rest of the Werewolves on his team.
‘I can’t see their stats like I can do myself, but I know, from increasing Olivia’s rank to that of a Knight and Kai’s Bishop rank, the two of them were able to grow stronger. They surpa.s.sed the limit that their bodies were capable of, and it even allowed them to have an evolution.
‘With these points, I can do the same for the others, but the question is whose strength do I increase this time. I don’t know the situation outside, so I’m just going to have to gamble.’ Gary thought as he started tapping away.
‘I hope they"re not in a situation where this will affect them, and rather a situation where they need support!’ Gary thought, recalling the last time he had done something like this and the pain they had felt during that time.
With all said and done, Gary had made his decision, and now he could see that Ice and Blackjack had approached him while nearly all of the prisoners had cowered away, either into their cells or were peeking out of the hallways into the main area.
“You back with us?” Blackjack asked. “It felt like you were away for a moment, you know, away from us and all of this?”
The truth was Gary was too focused on the system and his decision-making. He was sure this was something that would be impossible to explain to others unless they wanted to think he was a madman, and there was no reason for him to explain either.
“So with everything going on, do you think this is enough to call out the Warden?” Gary asked.
Both Ice and Blackjack looked at the dead on the ground, the bones on the floor that still had parts of flesh on them from Gary’s carnage.
“If this isn’t enough, I don’t know what is,” Ice commented.
“It should be enough. Do you see the guards, or do you see any guards in here?” Blackjack answered.
Looking around, it was true, there were no guards; they had left and were observing elsewhere as soon as the fighting was getting out of hand.
“I’m sure the news has reached her.”
Blackjack was very right about his prediction. The guards had already run to inform the Warden, but she was currently out of the base slightly, having a meeting with some of the White Rose members.
She was never too far away, though, so it didn’t take her long to return. She had heard some of the news, but now she was getting an updated report in her office from the other guards.
“A large-scale fight involving 90 percent of the prison had occurred, ma"am,” the guard reported. “The three groups that we have been keeping an eye on, they seem to have teamed up, to try and eliminate three individuals.”
“They all teamed up to just eliminate three individuals, they must be quite the strong ones then,” the Warden replied.
“Indeed, we have identified the three individuals. The newcomer Gary Dem who had recently arrived, Robert Tonner, who goes by the name of Ice, and the man that we know nothing about apart from his name, Blackjack.”
When the last name was mentioned, the Warden’s eyes lit up for a moment.
“He has stayed really quiet since the last time I dealt with him, but he’s making a mess now as well? Report to me when the majority of the fighting is over; then I will come in and deal with it.” She waved her hand.
However, the guards were still there as they had more to report.
“Ma"am, the fighting between the prisoners already ended. Blackjack, Ice, and Gary Dem. The three of them managed to defeat the South and North leaders and eliminated over fifty percent of the prisoners.”
“Wait, what do you mean eliminated!” The Warden asked, slamming her hand on the desk.
“This wasn’t a simple fight, ma"am. What had occurred today was a bloodbath, caused by those three.”
After hearing those words, the Warden stood up from her seat.
“This is not something that I can just sit by. I have to deal with this matter properly and give out punishment.”
