Chapter 713 Strongest Venom
The mini underground fighting tournament was taking place in the middle of several hills. They had found a nice low point that covered the area well, but due to its tricky terrain, people had to do one of two things to get to the location.
One, either park their car on a flattened area, that wasn’t so much covered in grass and mud, and had a little gravel instead or, take their motorbikes. In most cases, a car was a great luxury for those in a tier 4 city in the first place, which was why most of the gang members opted for the latter choice.
However, one group of people had arrived by car, the Scavengers' daughters. After being told by Vixen, their guard, the sisters hurried to the vehicle and rushed off with their driver.
Due to the tough terrain they were driving relatively slow through the hills. The car hadn’t travelled far, when the driver had noticed the car tilting to one side, and struggling to go up the hill. The warning signals coming up on the dashboard had confirmed his suspicions.
“I’m sorry ladies, but it looks like we might have a flat tire.” The man nervously said.
“A flat tire, does that mean we're stuck here!” Vivi shouted as she pulled the shoulder of the driver.
Already the other daughters were exiting out of the car.
“Don’t worry, every car has a spare tire of sorts, or at least a repair kit.” Rence said. “Once the driver replaces the tire, then we can be on our way out.”
“If that’s the case, then we might as well head back, we can see what’s going on.” Vivi excitedly said, and was looking around to drag some of her sisters with her, but that’s when she noticed that they had already gone.
“Where did Dora, Imelda and Vere go?” Vivi asked. “Did they already head back without us, without even telling us. What’s wrong with them… ahhh, wait for me!”
It was then that Vivi had run off as well. The driver looked incredibly nervous, sweat running down his face. If anything happened to the daughters, or they were to go missing, then it would all be on his head, and he was pretty sure he wouldn't have a head left either.
Letting out a big sigh, he knew he could never catch up to them, or convince them to stay.
“Don’t worry, I will get them to come back.” Rence said. “You just focus on fixing the car.”
With that, none of the daughters were left by the car and the driver was left all on his own. Letting out another sigh, he rolled up his sleeves and felt like it was time to get to work.
“What the!” The driver rubbed his hands against the tire. “This isn’t just a normal puncture, it's a large hole in the side. Did someone slash the tires… but then wouldn't we have felt it pop? Either way, I wonder who did this?”

The tier 4 city didn't have many Altereds that were living in it. In fact many, including those that were in the gangs, thought no one had one, which was why the transformation of Vixen had come as a surprise, but to the onlookers it just cemented in their mind why the Scavengers were once again the top gang, and one that no one would attempt to betray.
Vixen’s arm had extended out, heading straight to Austin, the snake’s fangs opened wide and green liquid could be seen already coming out of the fangs. Sticking his hand out, Austin showed no fear as it bit down and ripped through his skin.
His face showed next to no expression of pain, even though some of the onlookers had winced, imagining that it had to feel like two knives going through one’s hand.
“Hahaha!” Vixen laughed. “You, you're just a big idiot aren’t you. Is your strong body the only thing you have? You might be able to handle a bit of pain, but you have no idea how strong my venom is.
“A king cobra can take out an adult sized elephant in a matter of hours, yet my Altered form is based off of an ancient snake whose venom is even more powerful. My guess is a human like you, you might only have a few seconds to live.”
“A few seconds is all I need!” Austin said. With his other hand he grabbed the neck of the snake which was Vixen’s arm.
Using his legs and positioning himself, he yanked on the arm pulling Vixen in. It was with such strength that he was unable to resist as his whole body went flying through the air, and was heading straight towards Austin who had his fist ready for him.
At the right time, his fist was let loose and smashed Vixen right in the face. One of the fangs on his mouth had broken and he was sent flying back as his body crashed into the cage.
Everyone was left speechless and stunned because it looked like a regular human had just beaten an Altered. It didn’t make sense, even if Austin was an Altered, surely he would have had to have transformed at least halfway into his form to beat an Altered like Vixen.
This was all because Austin’s Altered form was a little different compared to others. Altereds tended to have three types of transformations, their human form, their half Altered form where they still looked human with Altered features, and then a full Altered form, which would be more based on the beast they got their Altered forms on.
Of course, skilled Altereds could also just transform part of their bodies. For Austin though, his Altered form was based on a minotaur, something that in its full form was half human anyway. So if Austin wanted to draw out the power of his Altered form, just looked like a regular human.
Having crashed into the cage, Vixen was starting to get up off the ground.
“Oh, he is actually getting up. I guess he is quite strong after all.” Austin mumbled to himself looking at the wound on his hand. He was wondering how much the venom would actually affect him.
“Hey Big Mask!” The Shadow Fighter shouted. “We need to get out of here now, this is the perfect chance. I don’t think that guy on your shoulder is going to last much longer and more of them will be on the way! Follow me.”
The Shadow Fighter rushed ahead, and two gang members approached him, jumping up in the air, he did a split kick, hitting both of the attackers at the same time.
Seeing as this was the best option, Austin started to charge forward like a bull, and not a single person wished to get in their way. It didn’t take long before the two of them had escaped out of the cage, and stolen two motorbikes and were off.
Some thought about giving chase, but after seeing what happened to all the others that had attacked, including the Altered, they hesitated and it was too late by then.
Vixen had gotten up, his form reverting back to its usual self, he didn’t look to be hurt from the hit, or too bothered about them escaping.
“The Scavengers own everything in this city, they have nowhere to run.” Vixen said. “And if that doesn't work, we have a way to force them.”
Vixen ran from the cage and jumped in the air, his hand reached out and grabbed someone by the back of the neck, lifting them in the air. “You, you had come with them, so I’m going to guess you're their friend.”
In all the commotion, Vlad couldn't find a good opportunity to escape, and now he was in the hands of one of the strongest members of the Scavengers, and he was about to learn that the rumours about them were too kind.
