211 210: Assemble
(Three minutes later)
"What's taking them so long?"
Corey who was standing close to the railing of the bridge, mumbled as he threw a small stone to the red sea of death.
Plop
Corey watched as the stone sank into the red sea with a bored expression. He picked up another stone and just as he was about to throw about it, he heard the sound of a vehicle and he furrowed his brows.
"Another one?"
Corey grabbed his battle axe which was beside him, then he turned to the source of the sound with a cold look in his eyes.
He tightened the grip on his battle axe, but a few seconds later, a baffled expression appeared in his eyes.
He rubbed his eyes a few times, but no matter how much he rubbed his eyes, what he saw did not change.
"The hell is this?"
Corey spoke with a baffled tone as he gazed at the most bizarre vehicle he had ever seen, but despite the amount of shock and curiosity he currently had, he reeled it in and took a battle stance as he waited for the bizarre vehicle which was moving at an extremely fast speed to appear in front of him.
A few seconds later, the bizarre vehicle got closer to Corey and Corey's grip on his battle axe tightened and just as Corey prepared to use 'Super Jump', he noticed the speed of the vehicle decrease, though with its previous speed, the vehicle's current speed did not put Corey at ease at all.
Screech!
Skid marks formed on the road as the vehicle turned to its side as it got closer to Corey.
A calculating glint formed in Corey's eyes as he looked at the incoming vehicle, and two seconds later, Corey decided to use his Eyes of Omniscience.
His eyes turned white for two seconds, and a second later, his eyes reverted back to normal. Corey shook his head with a tired expression while returning his battle axe to his Tri-Pupil Eyes.
'What in the world is Divine doing?'
Just as Corey had this thought while folding his arms, the screeching sound of the vehicle got louder and as it did, the vehicle got closer and closer to Corey.
Despite the distance between Corey and the bizarre vehicle reducing drastically, Corey had a calm expression while looking at the bizarre vehicle with raised brows and provoking eyes.
The image of the bizarre vehicle reflected in Corey's pupils as the distance between the two of them reduced from meters to inches.
And from inches to a centimeter, and from a centimeter to… Corey's body.
'Shit…'
Corey's eyes widened as he felt the vehicle slam unto him, and in the next second, his vision spun and he felt his body fly above the ground before hitting the ground and rolling at least five times.
"Oh fuck."
Corey cursed after spitting out a mouthful of blood. He wiped off the blood on his lips then he looked at the bizarre vehicle with a glint of vengeance in his eyes.
"Hahahaha! That's for hanging up on me and rejecting my call five times kid. Did you think I wouldn't have my revenge?"
A familiar voice filled with glee flowed into Corey's ears as he stood. He glanced at the bizarre vehicle and he saw a familiar figure get down from the bizarre vehicle with a wide smile on his handsome face.
"Divine."
Corey spoke while gritting his teeth.
"Hmm?"
Divine raised his brows and with a light smile, he spoke while cracking his knuckles.
"What did you call me ki-"
BAM!
Crack
Corey winced then a few seconds later, he whistled and a soft chuckle escaped his lips as he gazed at a frozen Divine.
"That'll definitely hurt."
"How dare you hit him with the car?! What if he had died?!"
A loud voice filled with rage resounded in the surrounding, and Corey's gaze shifted from the pain frozen Divine to a flared up beautiful red-haired female.
The air around the red-haired female emitted an intense aura of anger, the veins on her arms and head throbbed as she clenched her fists while looking at Divine who was now on the floor.
"You should really calm down with the captain's family jewels Rosa. You'll make the captain impotent at this rate."
A voice filled with an amused tone rang out and Corey's gaze moved to the source, Fatty Black Bonez.
Fatty Black Bonez held a cigar in his left hand which was filled with different rings. He looked at his captain and seeing his captain holding his balls with a pained expression, he shook his head.
Just as he shook his head, he felt a chill creep up in his spine and with a wary light in his eyes, he looked at Rosa who was staring at him with a chilly light in her red eyes.
"You know what. Do what you want. Who am I to tell you what to do? I'm in the car if you need me… Though I hope you wouldn't"
With his last sentence spoken as a whisper, Fatty Black Bonez quickly moved into their car with his lips twitching.
Rosa gazed at the cowardly Fatty, and although the urge to teach Fatty a lesson for speaking appeared in her heart, she decided to deal with their captain for hurting her crush.
Just as she was about to take a step forward, she felt a hand grab her elbow from behind. Feeling the hand on her elbow, she frowned and was about to attack the person that would dare touch her while she was angry, but then a calm voice flowed into her ears.
"It's okay Rosa. Thank you for teaching him a lesson."
A slight blush formed on her cheeks as the voice which she could not get out of her head no matter how much she tried… okay she didn't try at all.
But still, the deepness and masculinity in the voice made her knees go weak. All the anger she had, dissipated and she gave a meek nod in response to Corey's voice.
No. Sorry, words.
Corey had a small smile on his lips seeing Rosa's response. He released his hand from her arm, much to Rosa's disappointment. He walked towards Divine who was laying flat on the floor with his back while looking at the sky with a blank gaze.
"Hey Cap? Time is going, so can we like, start going now?"
Corey spoke with a light smile and Divine looked at Corey with a blank gaze for a few seconds before nodding his head.
Corey's smile widened a little, then he stretched out his hand and spoke:
"Truce?"
Divine gazed at Corey's outstretched hand, and without saying anything, he nodded and grabbed Corey's hand.
Corey pulled up Divine and Divine winced. Corey chuckled, then he patted Divine on his back.
"Don't worry. You'll be fine cap."
Corey chuckled once again, then his gaze shifted to what he was truly interested in- Their bizarre vehicle.
"Why does our car look like that Captain?"
Corey questioned as he left Divine and walked closer to the car.
"What's wrong with the car's appearance. It looks sexy and cool."
Divine replied with a baffled tone, and Corey gazed at him with a raise of his brows.
"You don't see anything wrong with the car's appearance? The car looks like a damn porcupine."
Corey said as he looked at the car which had sharp and pointed edges. Its color was mainly black while having a few parts painted red.
Divine shook his head and spoke:
"You don't know anything about art kid. Sure, the car has sharp and pointed edges, the car doesn't look like a porcupine. It looks more like a wolf. The name of the car is Racing Wolf."
Hearing Divine's words, Corey observed the car and just like Divine said, the car looked like wolf with its fur standing straight.
'The car is actually cool. But couldn't he have found something… simpler?'
Just as Corey had this thought, Divine's voice flowed into his ears.
"What took you so long by the way? We all thought you were dead."
Corey looked at Divine, then he looked at a certain part of the bridge.
"Had to deal with something."
Divine raised his brows in confusion hearing Corey's words. He followed Corey's line of sight and the image of three destroyed vehicles and ten corpses appeared in his pupils.
"You were fighting all these people?"
Divine asked with a curious tone and Corey nodded. A thought appeared in Corey's mind then he looked at Divine with a confused light in his eyes.
"Why is it that the number of contestants I'm seeing is extremely small. While I was waiting for you, a group came from the far end of the bridge and attacked me. Where in the world were all of you when you called me?"
One of the things Corey had always been confused about was that he did not see Divine, Rosa and Fatty Black Bonez when he was up in the air.
After killing the group of six that attacked him, more people dropped unto the bridge from the sky and to Corey's surprise, a vehicle containing four people came from the far end of the bridge and after a brief and stupid conversation, he got into a fight with the group and he eventually killed the entire group, adding four more corpses to the previous six corpses.
As for the remaining two vehicles, they were owned by the first group of six.
After killing the group of four, Corey was confused on the locations of the contestants of the death race.
"Ohh. About that. Turns out that the clown played me."
"What do you mean?"
Corey raised his brows in confusion and a dry chuckle which contained a tinge of rage escaped Divine's lips.
"Let's enter racing wolf for now and race. I'll explain to you as we drive."
