Chapter 590: Chapter 590 A Demon Beast Core
As Hawk Thompson whispered the technique beneath his breath, everyone’s wrists suddenly blazed with glowing lights!
The symbols on the bracelets unleashed a thick wave of power that wrapped around everyone’s bodies!
In an instant, a crushing force slammed into their flesh!
Not only that, the force seemed capable of eating away at one’s spiritual awareness, making their minds buzz with endless noise!
"Ahhhh!!!"
Immediately, all the people on the bottom level felt like they were being crushed under massive weight, screaming without stop.
They collapsed to the ground, writhing around trying to ease their agony.
Even my face twisted in pain, but I stayed quiet, enduring the torture.
"Hmph, pathetic fools." Hawk Thompson crossed his arms behind his back, sneering over and over.
"This is what happens when you resist! Just a bunch of insects, thinking you’re special?"
I gritted my teeth, fury building in my chest as I watched everyone’s agonized faces.
I braced myself and, with the Golden Light in my hand, walked step by step toward Hawk Thompson!
"Huh?" Hawk raised an eyebrow and smirked, "No wonder you had the guts to break into the stairway to heaven, you can actually handle this?"
"Fuck you!" I bellowed in rage, pushing through the pain and balling my fist as I rushed toward Hawk Thompson!
But right now, my body was in crushing agony, leaving me with only a tenth of my strength—how could I possibly hurt Hawk Thompson?
Hawk lazily flicked his hand, directly smacking me and launching me through the air!
"You dare attack me?" Hawk stepped forward, moving toward me.
Power burst from his hand, a razor-sharp blade taking shape in his palm.
"Since you’re all so stubborn, I might as well just kill every one of you." Hawk’s eyes narrowed as he spoke.
"Captain Thompson."
Right then, Elena Green suddenly stepped forward.
She smiled and said, "Mr. Thompson, even if they’re wrong, that doesn’t mean they deserve to die. Your random killing will easily upset everyone."
Hawk’s eyebrows pulled together slightly, and just as he was about to speak, Wilbert Jaxon also approached.
"Miss Green is correct, Mr. Thompson, your behavior could easily make people think you’re getting personal revenge," Wilbert said with a slight smile.
Hawk’s frown deepened, he drew a long breath, then huffed quietly, and pulled back his power.
Everyone could finally breathe again, their faces white as paper.
Hawk, though, felt somewhat annoyed inside.
He’d originally figured he could do anything he wanted on this island, but he never expected these people weren’t as straightforward as he’d thought.
"Out of respect for Miss Green and Mr. Jaxon, I’ll let this slide," Hawk snorted coldly.
"Let me make this clear—on this island, you follow my commands. If this happens again, I won’t show mercy!"
With that, Hawk Thompson stormed off with a sweep of his sleeve.
Elena Green and Wilbert Jaxon came over to me and helped me up, smiling, "Are you okay?"
I wiped the sweat that had rolled down my forehead and shook my head, "I’m fine, thanks to both of you."
Elena laughed, "Mr. Raymond, you’re too polite. Even though we’re not the same type of people, nobody would support Hawk Thompson randomly killing innocent people."
"Exactly, even ancient kings had to come up with reasons to execute someone," Wilbert also chuckled.
I nodded and said nothing more.
I looked down at the bracelet on my wrist, and my expression couldn’t help but darken.
The bracelet’s power was completely beyond what I’d imagined, and fighting it was nearly impossible.
"If this keeps up, I’m afraid we’ll really be completely helpless." I took a deep breath.
Everyone’s faces looked grim. Even though they were from the lower class, weren’t they all chosen by heaven?
How could their proud hearts accept this kind of treatment?
"Mason Raymond, thank you," Bella Tad said as he walked up.
I looked at Bella Tad and smiled, "Honestly, you caught me off guard."
Bella Tad grunted, "What’s surprising about it? If I were stronger than Hawk Thompson, I would’ve killed him!"
As he spoke, Bella Tad clenched his fists, and a red glow flared around him again.
"By the way, that body of yours really is surprisingly unique," I commented after noticing the red aura.
Bella Tad nodded, "Yeah, I’ve been unusually tough since I was little. I thought it was weird too until someone said I had a holy body and brought me to start training."
"Holy body?" A flash of shock crossed my face!
Bella Tad actually had a holy body? This kind of build was among the best in the world!
"So... that red glow comes from your constitution?" I asked.
Bella Tad nodded.
"So this means it’s like my golden one," I thought to myself.
It also made me think of Conrad Schroeder’s body.
His body also had a holy body constitution, but there was no red glow.
Maybe it was because the holy body belonged to someone else.
After this incident, the groups were officially split.
Alberto Sean’s Capital City circle, and my ordinary circle.
Maybe because of my strength, the Capital City circle members didn’t come looking for trouble that night.
The next day.
Everyone gathered on the beach, waiting for Hawk Thompson’ orders.
Hawk Thompson looked over the group, saying coldly, "Since this is training, danger is unavoidable, and the most valuable resource on this island is demon beasts."
"As long as you kill a demon beast, you can get an inner core. All cores you collect must be turned over to me for distribution."
Hearing this, I couldn’t help but sneer.
Let Hawk Thompson distribute the cores? So the people in the lower circle would become laborers?
They were already being used in daily life, and now they were going to be used on the island too?
"How amusing," I sneered inside.
Hawk Thompson surveyed the group as he stood with his hands behind his back, as if muttering a technique to himself.
——
"Soul Attraction Technique, the Capital City Martial Arts Association can actually use this too." Walton Greer whispered quietly from the shadows.
Originally, Walton Greer had used the Soul Attraction Technique to call the Dragon Spirit, but Hawk Thompson’ Soul Attraction Technique was clearly more advanced.
As he recited the technique silently, the ocean suddenly churned with massive waves!
Then, a enormous demon beast roared to life!
This demon beast was at least ten meters tall and looked absolutely terrifying!
Not only that, its presence was extremely fierce; just one roar made the ground shake!
For a moment, everyone was frozen by the demon beast!
——
Hawk Thompson said coldly, "This is a demon beast. Kill it and you’ll get the inner core."
"A Demon Beast Core equals a golden core inside a Marquis!"
My eyes sharpened, my face suddenly showing a trace of excitement.
Equal to a Marquis’ golden core? So, if we hunted enough demon beasts, we’d have the chance to become Martial Saints?
