Winner Takes All novel Chapter 68

Deafening cheers roared from the darkness. Nobody bothered about the misgivings in the cage. All they cared about was the violence, gore, and their bets. Many had a deep impression of Jack who wore the white mask because Jack had caused them to lose money during his last fight.

Outside the cage, Brent frowned and said with a deep voice, “Lone Wolf, aren’t there any restrictions at this Underground Fight Club?”

“Restrictions?” Lone Wolf was surprised.

Brent said, “Weapons!”

Boom!

Lone Wolf was shocked and looked at Devil in disbelief. He didn’t doubt what Brent said because Brent’s words were good enough for him. But… where was the weapon?

In the cage.

Jack tried to move his left arm. Although his arm wasn’t broken by Devil’s kick, the bone fracture caused sharp pains whenever he tried to move his left arm. It was obvious that he was unable to use his left arm for the rest of this fight.

He didn’t analyze how Devil was able to wear steel-tipped shoes for the fight. A place where even the people who had shady backgrounds cannot be depended on to enforce any rules.

Jack endeavored to breathe and compose himself. His eyes continued to lock on Devil like a falcon. This fight was far more vicious than when he fought Lone Wolf. Although he was repeatedly pinned down by Lone Wolf during the last fight, at least he still had full usage of all his limbs.

To lose the use of an arm in a deathmatch made him feel that he was a step closer to death. Furthermore, considering the track record of Devil, he seemed to be out to kill his opponents.

“Tsk tsk…” Under the lights, Devil laughed with an evil screech, “Your fighting instinct is the strongest I’ve ever seen!”

Jack was calm and slowly straighten himself and wiped away the sweat on his forehead.

“But you must die.” Before he finished saying, Devil’s right leg extended forward and the black robe made him look like a ghost flying towards Jack.

Whoosh with a rush of the air!

Jack felt that a shadow was rushing towards him. It was Devil’s whipping leg.

Jack didn’t dare to block directly and dived to dodge the kick. No matter how well-toned the muscles were, they were no match against the impact of a metallic object.

After sustaining a fracture by his initial kick, he would be a fool to exchange blows directly with Devil. Devil seemed to have anticipated this. Just as Jack dodged his kick, Devil’s left arm came swinging towards Jacks head.

Each of his moves aimed to kill.

Bang!

Jack’s right fist extended to counter Devil’s punch. The sharp pain radiated through his bones causing him to frown deeply and winced in pain. Devil didn’t retreat and continued with his attack. His right fist overcame Jack’s right block and went towards Jack’s chest.

Suddenly.

Fuck!

Under the bright lights, a dagger flicked out from the ring on Devil’s right middle finger. The cold blade glimmered under the lights.

“Fuck!”

Even when Jack continued to control his emotions, he couldn’t help but cursed loudly at this point.

Slash…

The dagger sliced through Jack’s vest and his skin to reveal a long bloody cut.

Roar! In the darkness, the crowd erupted in roars and cheers.

Jack panted rapidly in position and looked cautiously towards Devil while maintaining a cold expression. At that moment, he couldn’t be bothered about the wound on his chest. The radiating pain made him wince and his eyes twitched.

With steel-tipped shoes and a concealed ring dagger, no wonder he had an undefeated fight record. Jack suddenly realized. Even if Lone Wolf’s combat skills could get him a hundred percent winning rate, the rate of killing and maiming would not be as high as Devil’s!

He looked around the cold darkness. The thunderous and deafening cheers caused his breathing to tense up.

Death! This was death!

Compared to the fight with Lone Wolf, this fight with Devil gave Jack an intense feeling that he was facing death under disadvantaged and totally unfair circumstances.

He couldn’t help but feel his emotions fluctuating. “Calm down… you must maintain your cool…” Jack kept reminding himself and even intentionally bit the tip of his tongue until it bled. He did the same as the last fight but it was no longer effective now.
