( Rocky’s POV )

As Rocky continued to make his way through the first floor of the prison, the scenes around him continued to get progressively more chaotic as time passed.

The prisoners that he had free’d at first, began freeing other prisoners in a chain-reaction that saw the entire first floor of the underground prison structure turn into a vicious pit of death.

Judging the danger, Rocky urged Buhara and Erin to stay close as he reduced the gap between his group and squad-leader AceKing to under five meters, bringing himself in the protective vicinity of the veteran tier5 warrior.

This proved to be a very wise decision by Rocky, as with the situation within the prison deteriorating every passing second and the mob getting out of control, there were many psychotic prisoners who tried to lunge towards the Elites and Rocky to try and snatch their weapons, prompting Rocky to retaliate in self-defense.

“ELITES! MOVE IT! THE SITUATION HERE HAS GONE MENTAL, LET’S GET TO LEVEL TWO BEFORE THESE LOONEY’S ABSOLUTELY LOSE THEIR SHIT” AceKing screamed on-top of his voice, as he instructed his men to hurry out of this floor as their job here was already done.

Responding to his command, the vanguard of the Elites increased their speed in moving through the prison floor, as they covered ground twice as fast as before, after AceKing urged them on.

( Meanwhile Perseus )

By the time Perseus made his way to the underground prison, the scene that greeted him was one of sheer pandemonium.

Mangled corpses of his prison guards were tied up against the prison bars, with their innards splattered everywhere.

If not for their uniforms, the state of their faces and bodies was so unrecognizable that Perseus would never have guessed that they were his men.

A very pungent smell of iron, blood and brain fluid attacked his nose, while the loud screams of pain and joy attacked his ear drums.

If he did not know for a fact that this was the basement of his palace, he would have genuinely doubted if he were in hell, as the current floor level one of the underground prison, looked no different than hell.

“Kyaa! Noble looking man! Die— die and give me your weapon” said a frail and injured looking prisoner as he lunged towards Perseus bare-handed after spotting him, however, the poor man was no match for Perseus who killed him before the man’s eyes could even blink.

“Filthy runt…” Perseus said, flaring his killing aura, as he walked into the chaotic prison to search for Rocky.

Goosebumps ran down the spines of every prisoner as Perseus passed from near them, as there was not one man who dared to attack him after feeling the strength of his killing aura.

Perseus, a tier5 warrior and a descendant of a demi-god bloodline had a terrifying presence about himself which compelled the prisoners to instinctively make way for him as he passed.

Perseus unhurriedly walked through the bloody corridor’s of Prison Level One alone, with nothing but a bloody sword in hand, yet there was not one prisoner that dared to attack him.

With how poorly his life had been going the past few days, Perseus was mentally frustrated to the point where he no longer had any fucks left to give.

Although he knew that walking through such a dangerous prison alone was probably not a good idea, especially when he was surrounded by madmen and criminals, Perseus felt so frustrated with life that he no longer hesitated before taking such decisions, as he simply did not care enough for his life anymore to hesitate in making them.

Anyone who dared look at him the wrong way, he simply slaughtered with a single swing of his blade, as he carried himself across the level one of the prison with the energy of a ‘End Game Boss’.

Unfortunately for him however, by the time that he made his way across the first floor, it seemed like Rocky and the Elites had already killed the guards to the second level and descended to the second floor and had blocked the entry to the second floor after themselves.

This made it difficult for Perseus to continue with his pursuit as he was forced to use his sword skills and carve open a path first.

( Meanwhile Rocky )

Rocky and the Elites were simply not aware about the fact that Perseus was personally chasing them, as by the time Perseus arrived at the first floor’s entrance, they had already made their way on-to the second floor, with the few mages in their group sealing the entrance to the second floor behind them shut with the use of massive Earth boulder spells that were molten using flame spells and rapidly cooled down using ice spells to create a perfect seal.

It was primarily done by the Elites to ensure that the lunatics on floor one did not follow their group into level two, however, it inadvertently served as a blockade for Perseus as well.

The second floor of the underground prison was much darker and being patrolled by stronger guards, which made fighting within feel like a much different atmosphere to Rocky and Crew.

Since the prison guards on this level were either tier3 or tier4 strength guards, Rocky, Erin and Buhara had to work in perfect synergy to try and take a guard down while ensuring that they did not commit a single mistake.

“Erin, debuff his speed. Buhara, try and see if you can bind him.

I’ll try and restrict him to one position” Rocky instructed, as he cautiously engaged a tier3 prison guard, who was slightly slower and weaker than him in terms of physical strength, but superior in terms of technique and expertise.

However, with Rocky being able to hold his ground and restricting his opponent to one spot, Erin was able to curse him with a debuff spell while Buhara was able to bind him using the spell [ Dark Bind ].

This combo opened up the way for Rocky to go for the decisive killing strike, as he managed to take down the guard as a result.

“Good job guys… on-to-the next one” Rocky said, as he moved his focus towards his next prey, when suddenly the entire second floor of the underground prison rumbled with powerful intensity.

“Rocky Yadav…. Death has come knocking for you–” said a powerful voice from near the entrance of the second floor, as Rocky turned to see Perseus for the first time in his life.
