With a loud noise, the fist hit Brown on the face.
It was with such force, that it almost deformed half of Brown's face.
But no pain was revealed on his face.
On the contrary! He was smiling!
Jack was perplex.
He couldn't believe Brown, in that moment, he couldn't sense any of the murderous intentions he had before, not even the determination.
He was now gentle and easy going.
"Why didn't you duck?"
Jack's voice was trembling, this was his last hit.
A spent arrow’s last strike, with Brown's capability and his current state, he could have easily gone out of the way.
"Why would I?"
Brown smiled, his lips parted, "How is your father?"
Father?!
Jack felt a wave in his heart, then he stumbled a few steps back, "He is... he is fine."
In that second, he felt very confused.
Brown knew his father?
It was silent in the black hell.
What just happened was not expected at all.
Not only the prisoners, but even the guards were so shocked and speechless.
Was this really the noble Brown?
The person who dominated the Area No.1 chose to take the hit?
"Puh."
Brown exhaled, then he raised his hand to rub his painful cheek, and said, "You are not all too bad, it really hurts bad, this one you won."
What?!
Jack was trembling, and stared at Brown in surprise.
Then.
Brown raised his head to look at the surveillance camera.
Then raised his hand while everyone was staring at him, and showed his middle finger.
“Fuck!”
After he said that, he jumped off the arena.
"You're good!"
Brown walked away as he was cursing and laughing, "I didn't know that useless Patrick could bring out a son like you, why is he always so lucky?"
Was he complementing me, or was he cursing my father?
Jack was a little confused.
But he quickly realized something, he won!
And it was in such a strange way that he felt like in a dream, he won all trials!
With a loud sound, Jack let himself fall onto the arena, he was hurting all over, and weak, he didn't even have the strength to sit up again.
But on his face was a big and happy laughter.
"I can finally go home, and marry you!"
The last trial made the black hell break into turmoil.
After the shock wore off, all ten areas all suddenly broke into protest.
Even the dumbest person could see that in the fight between Jack and Brown, Brown had let Jack win.
This was unfair to all of the prisoners.
Why could Jack win all his fights and walk out of black hell?
Why would Brown let him win?
The black hell exploded.
The managers in the surveillance room all looked solemn and respectful, and dignified.
The prisoners in the black hell were all murderers.
Ever since this prison existed, they had built their stability on the constraint and counterbalance.
But now, after the fight between Jack and Brown, all the prisoners in the ten areas were furious.
The prison guards didn't know if they could handle this situation.
"Warden, you can't let this count! Otherwise the black hell will explode!"
"Sir, you need to make a decision now, Jack cannot leave black hell, if he does, we will never be able to use this fight as a warning sign!"
"Brown will ruin black hell with his actions!"
