Chapter 597: Chapter 597: See the Living, See the Dead_1

The characters on the bracelet shone and flashed, unleashing a force that directly attacked Ethan Smith’s divine sense, making it extremely difficult for him to get up.

Dudley Lynch sneered continuously, seizing the opportunity to step towards Ethan Smith again.

With the aid of the black energy, Dudley Lynch grabbed Ethan Smith’s neck and relentlessly pounded into him.

One punch, two punches, three punches! Ethan Smith was almost powerless to fight back!

Seeing this scene, the onlookers couldn’t help but be surprised.

Just a moment ago, Dudley Lynch was being overwhelmed—how did the situation reverse so quickly?

“Captain Richards triggered Ethan’s bracelet,” Daphne Green murmured softly.

Hearing this, the crowd suddenly understood.

Ricardo Bowman looked slightly taken aback and said, “Isn’t this a bit despicable?”

“I don’t find it despicable—he’s just a lowly reptile with an inflated reputation,” Blaise Rhodes snorted coldly from the side.

“Indeed, Ethan Smith may have some ability, but there’s no need to overpraise him,” Darnell Bradley also nodded slightly.

At this point, Daphne Green laughed and said, “I have a different opinion.”

“Oh?” The crowd turned to Daphne Green.

Daphne Green smiled and said, “I think Ethan Smith’s skill may not be inferior to ours.”

“Hmph, Miss Green, you seem to hold Ethan Smith in too high regard,” Blaise grumbled displeasedly.

“Even if he has some strength, what can he do in such adversity? He can only fall and has no future to speak of.”

Daphne Green laughed and said, “The more one grows in adversity, the more immeasurable their future becomes.”

This immediately aroused the dissatisfaction of the crowd, but they couldn’t find any words to refute.

Not far away, Dudley Lynch single-handedly held Ethan Smith’s neck, black energy gathering in his hand.

The black energy transformed into a sharp blade, aimed straight at Ethan Smith’s vital point!

“Ethan Smith, I admit your skills are superior to mine,” Dudley Lynch said sinisterly.

“However, it’s a pity that the world has never been ruled by strength alone! The unruly often die the fastest!”

As he spoke, the sharp dagger in Dudley Lynch’s hand suddenly stabbed forward!

“Boom!”

However, at this moment, Ethan Smith fiercely endured the pain, shook his body, and directly sent Dudley Lynch flying!

“Huh?” A frown creased Jordan Richards’ brow as he couldn’t help but scoff, “He can still resist?”

Immediately after, an icy coldness flashed across Jordan Richards’ face.

He said sinisterly, “It seems I need to increase the intensity…”

After speaking, the power of the bracelet surged once more as Jordan Richards muttered under his breath!

“Aaah!!!”

This time, Ethan Smith suddenly roared in pain, his head thrown back!

Every inch of his body seemed to have been pierced by sharp blades, and a heavy feeling came from his chest!

Even his divine sense experienced wave after wave of needle-like pain!

This intense pain caused Ethan Smith to collapse to the ground with a thud.

Ethan Smith clenched his teeth tightly, trying to force himself to get up, but all his strength seemed to have been drained and he could hardly stand!

Not far away, Dudley Lynch wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth. He slowly stood up and said coldly, “If you don’t die, I, Dudley Lynch, will never have a chance to get ahead!”

As his words fell, Dudley Lynch’s figure vanished suddenly, and in the next second, he appeared in front of Ethan Smith!

“Ethan Smith, die for me!”

Along with Dudley Lynch’s roar, he thrust the sharp blade straight at Ethan Smith’s chest!

“Plop!”

The dagger pierced through Ethan’s flesh, and a mouthful of blood spurted out immediately!

Dudley Lynch sneered, “Ethan Smith, I won’t give you another chance. This time… I’ll kill you directly!”

They saw Dudley Lynch’s body shine brightly as if brewing some kind of powerful attack.Afterward, those black rays turned into one small ball after another.

These small balls were like bombs, containing extremely terrifying power.

“Ethan Smith, I know that your physical strength is unmatched. This move is specially prepared for you.” Dudley Lynch sneered.

“Under this technique, even the hardest flesh and blood will be blown through!”

“Come on, let me see just how strong your chaotic body actually is!”

Dudley Lynch spread his palm, and the black balls immediately shot out towards Ethan Smith like a torrential rain!

“Boom!”

Countless black balls exploded on Ethan Smith’s body!

The terrifying shockwave instantly swept around the surroundings!

In an instant, even the sea water nearby was evaporated!

Dudley Lynch quickly retreated as to not be affected by the shockwave!

People nearby fled in all directions, standing tens of meters away!

Jordan Richards squinted his eyes and said coldly, “This power, even the Black Gold Stone may not be able to withstand, let alone Ethan Smith.”

Everyone stared at the center of the explosion.

They also wanted to know if Ethan Smith could survive under this huge explosion!

Finally, the smoke slowly cleared, and a silhouette appeared before everyone.

They saw him covered in blood, his body almost shattered, with crystal-white bones exposed, looking extremely horrifying!

His body was already full of scars, blood covering his face, hardly recognizable as human.

“He didn’t die?” Dudley Lynch raised an eyebrow and sneered, “It’s no wonder it’s a chaotic body, and it didn’t die.”

Ethan Smith gasped for breath, his face ferocious, severely injured, and his aura extremely weak.

Dudley Lynch walked step by step towards Ethan Smith, looking down at him condescendingly and sneering, “Ethan Smith, it’s time to send you on your way.”

Dudley Lynch’s palm erupted with black light, aimed directly at Ethan Smith’s chest.

“Die!” Dudley Lynch roared, and the black light instantly smashed into Ethan Smith!

In an instant, Ethan Smith’s body was directly blown hundreds of meters away! Then, he fell heavily into the sea, stirring up huge waves!

“It’s over.” Dudley Lynch said with a faint smile.

He walked over to Jordan Richards and said with a smile, “Captain Richards, I didn’t mean to hit him so hard, I’m sorry.”

Jordan Richards glanced at Dudley Lynch, then said coldly, “The competition itself is risky, no need to worry.”

Dudley Lynch leaned forward in gratitude, “Thank you, Captain Richards.”

Jordan Richards didn’t say anything else and walked away.

All fell silent, and the many martial artists from the lower levels stood on the beach, gazing quietly.

They were waiting for a miracle.

But in the blink of an eye, the sky darkened, and the sea was calm with no trace of anyone.

“Ethan Smith…did he just die like that?” Frederick Cohen clenched his fists, his face full of anger.

The others remained silent, but their faces held a sense of sorrow.

Without Ethan Smith, the martial artists from the lower levels would naturally be even less valued.

Not far away, Jordan Richards was also watching the water.

“Captain Richards, can I join the Capital City Martial Arts Association now?” Dudley Lynch asked with a faint smile.

Jordan Richards glanced at him and snorted coldly, “Who told you to knock him into the seabed?”

Dudley Lynch was stunned and said with a smile, “Captain Richards, what do you mean by that?”

Jordan Richards said coldly, “Alive you must see the person, dead you must see the body! Dudley Lynch, you must find Ethan Smith’s body for me!”

Dudley Lynch laughed, “Mr. Richards, are you being a bit too cautious? I have great confidence in myself. I believe that no one could survive under this bombardment.”

“Shut up! Just go if I tell you to, what’s with all the nonsense!” Jordan Richards said coldly.

His expression was extremely ugly because the real treasure of this trial was under this island!
