“You said Laga was dead. So why am I seeing him with those people right now?” Paul asked without taking his eyes off Laga.Kenta blinked several times, making sure what he was seeing wasn't a hallucination.“You...” Paul suddenly fell silent when he saw the shock on Kenta's face. He wanted to beat the teenager for lying to him. However, seeing the archer's expression made him realize that Kenta was just as shocked as he was.“You lied to me?” Paul asked while repeatedly slapping his own cheeks. “Or were you the one who got tricked by those three damn prisoners?”“He... really is Laga.” Kenta chuckled softly. “I'm sure those three prisoners were telling the truth when that bastard Laga threw himself into the poisonous ravine. They must've thought he died because there was no way he could've survived. But...”“Laga actually survived.” Paul jumped around excitedly. “I'm so damn happy right now. I'm going to—”“Damn it, what are you going to do, idiot?” Kenta grabbed Paul's arm. “Are you

[01 Hour 00 Minutes 00 Seconds][One hour remains before the First Harvest ends.]The announcement echoed throughout the main area, booming like thunder on a clear day.In only a short while, dozens of small whirlwinds transformed into raging tornadoes that swept across the entire area.Several prisoners were knocked off their feet and began getting pulled into the wind. Others ran for their lives, fought over places to hide, or simply froze in place as if waiting for death to come.A whirlwind appeared near Laga, growing larger with every passing second. The wind began pulling in anything within its reach.Laga, Logan, Derry, and Ale immediately moved away.Unfortunately, the whirlwind continued growing and suddenly began moving.Laga was gradually pulled toward the tornado. Just as his body was about to be lifted off the ground, a strand of hair wrapped around him.“Damn it, we need to find a tree or building that's still sturdy enough to shelter us!” Derry shouted as he wrapped str

Logan immediately pulled his hand back. “I'm afraid you'll cry if I shoot you. That little knife is your pride, isn't it?”“This little knife is far more useful than a pistol that keeps running out of bullets whenever things get serious,” the prisoner replied.The black smoke began to disappear, revealing several prisoners in front of Laga, Logan, and Derry more clearly.“You guys...” Derry let out a long sigh. “I hate to admit it, but I've never been this happy to see you. Especially you, Fatso. Damn, you're still as fat as ever.”Don, Susan, and Boma were not far from Laga, Logan, and Derry. They were all lying flat on the ground to avoid enemy attacks.“So you're still alive, Old Man,” Susan said, rolling her eyes. “I'm still pissed off that you kicked me out.”Susan had actually gone back to look for Logan after defeating several female prisoners who had tried to attack her. She had seen Logan fighting a prisoner inside one of the rooms. She had to admit that the prisoner fighting

The orange-red roots quickly swallowed the corpses of the prisoners. The skull clock continued counting down. The moonlight began to fade. Explosions echoed from various directions, followed by screams and the sounds of objects crashing to the ground.“Damn, I have a bad feeling about this,” Derry said as he surveyed their surroundings. “We're in an open area without a single living prisoner around. This place...”Susan interrupted, “This place is deserted, which makes it perfect for hiding and resting. But I have to agree with you, Weird Hair. This place looks more like a graveyard for prisoners.”Laga and everyone else carefully observed their surroundings, moving slowly as they peered through gaps between building debris, roots, and tree trunks.Laga muttered, “There are only a few piles of building debris, fallen trees, and large roots sticking out of the ground. There are still several places that could be used as hiding spots. But the reason this place is deserted is because...”

“You bastard!”The Sword-Handed Prisoner shouted as he collapsed to the ground. His vision began to blur, and he started losing control of his body. Images from the battle in this unfamiliar area kept flashing through his mind, mixing with disgusting memories from his past.Logan and Don cautiously approached the Sword-Handed Prisoner, ready to attack. At the same time, Ale, Derry, and Susan were busy trying to stop the Cobra Prisoner from escaping, while Tonny treated Boma's wounds as quickly as possible.Laga followed the movement of a prisoner until he finally lost sight of him.“I only saw his core coin count, the last two digits of the code on his back, and...”“I won't die!”Laga immediately turned toward the Sword-Handed Prisoner, who had suddenly gotten back to his feet. Laga took several steps backward and hid behind some debris, preparing to fire.Logan and Don immediately leaped away.Derry, Ale, Susan, Boma, and Tonny instantly shifted their attention from the Cobra Prison
