Chapter 23: The Attack

In the woods.

Thulhu looked up at the sky. He saw some scattered stars and a bright moon.

The moon was different from the moon in his past life. The moon in this world was so big, at least two to three times bigger.

The size of the moon told him that he was now in a completely different world.

But it was still just as gorgeous!

Thulhu’s heart was touched by the moonlight. He then suddenly turned around and saw Donald walking toward him.

“You wanted to talk to me?” Donald asked.

“Yes, I want to talk to you!” Thulhu nodded. “I think there’s been a misunderstanding and we don’t have to solve it by fighting. We can solve it between the two of us, okay?”

“Between the two of us?” Donald smiled. “Good… as long as you join the club and become a trainer.”

Then the reputation of the club would be saved.

“A trainer? How much is the weekly salary?”

Thulhu immediately asked the question.

Donald looked a bit embarrassed, because he didn’t think Thulhu would accept this solution so easily. “Well… we’re a university club established out of interest. We receive funds from the university and some donations from time to time, but a trainer doesn’t have a salary, though you can charge for private training sessions…”

“I see. Then I don’t want to join,” Thulhu said straightforwardly.

He was rather busy. He didn’t have the time to teach free lessons.

He might have considered taking the job if the club offered a good salary, but it didn’t.

“Too bad…” Donald shrugged. “Then I’ll see you tomorrow!”

Donald was very confident. From their last fight, Donald was certain that Thulhu still wasn’t his match yet.

“Donald, I don’t think you’re getting the point!”

Thulhu took a deep breath. “I want to end this here, because I don’t want the club to be further humiliated!”

“Humiliated? You think you’ll win?” Donald lifted his eyebrows.

“Win or lose, you won’t know until you give it a try.” Thulhu took a deep breath again.

“Interesting!”

Wearing a white, loose combat uniform, Donald adopted a fighting stance.

“Why did you agree so fast?”

Thulhu felt it was strange that Donald had immediately accepted his challenge.

“You’re here for a reason. In the world of combat, there are other factors besides strength that decide victory!” Donald said seriously.

“Good. Ready!”

Thulhu stomped his feet and flashed in front of Donald. His hand chopping down, Thulhu yelled, “Tiger Style!”

The wind was blowing.

The momentum of his hand was unstoppable and ferocious, like a tiger jumping down!

Bang!

Donald blocked the attack with his arms and felt the great strength behind it. Taking a few steps back to neutralize the power, he looked at Thulhu, shocked. “You… you’ve changed…”

He remembered his fight with Thulhu the other day. In comparison, Thulhu’s strength was now much greater!

But it had only been a few days…

Maybe Andrea was right. In this world, there were geniuses, and Thulhu was one of them. And maybe… Thulhu was the one who could touch ‘that world’…?

All kinds of thoughts flashed through Donald’s mind.

The trainers in the club had told him how Thulhu had learned to fight.

When they told him that it only took Thulhu two days to learn the sets, Donald hadn’t believed them.

But now he had to believe it! A genius could progress at a speed that was fantastic and incredible to ordinary people!

The wind was blowing.

When Donald chose to defend, Thulhu dashed at Donald with his arms swinging fiercely.

“Crane Style!”

Thulhu launched a new round of attack!

Donald had to cover his head using his hands and arms. His muscles bulged again.

Thulhu felt like his fists were pounding an iron wall.

Whoosh! Bang!

The two figures jumped at each other before quickly springing apart. At that moment, Thulhu unleashed a side-kick in the air.

This was dangerous to do in a real fight. It was hard to keep your balance in the air, and would create an opening for the enemy.

But Thulhu was different!

His spirit value was 1.6. He could do the calculations very accurately.

Thulhu kicked Donald right in the chest. Donald’s body couldn’t help falling back at the formidable strength.

“You win…”

Donald gasped hard. After a couple of seconds, he finally accepted the result. He took a glance at the black footprint on his chest and looked very confused. “Are… are you an extraordinary? A [Soldier]?”

“Extraordinary Soldier? What do you mean?”

Thulhu hurriedly asked the question.

“Your kick… was slightly beyond the physical limits of a human being.” Donald patted his clothes and stood up. He didn’t feel depressed at all, and instead was rather excited, as his eyes shone with the thrill of discovery. “But now that I think about it, that strength wasn’t at the extraordinary level yet… But you’ve convinced me that there really are geniuses in this world!”

Deliberately or not, Donald dodged the topic of extraordinary power.

Geniuses? Well…

Without his attributes panel, Thulhu believed that Donald would have taught him a very impressive lesson.

“Are we still fighting together?” asked Thulhu.

“No… no!”

Donald hurriedly waved his hands.

Knowing the gap between their strengths, Donald had quickly given up on the fight tomorrow. He wasn’t going to humiliate himself!

Thulhu thought that it would take Donald some time to give up, but Donald made the decision way faster than he expected.

Thulhu’s face was still expressionless. “If you’re willing to pay me, I can lose the fight tomorrow.”

Donald was surprised, and the smile on his face disappeared. “Are you talking about cheating? Seriously?”

“I don’t see anything wrong with it…” said Thulhu.

Unfortunately, the plan to earn a fortune from the fight wouldn’t be happening. Thulhu nodded. “Since you don’t want to do it, then I won’t show up for the fight tomorrow.”

Besides solving this problem, Thulhu’s other reason for coming here was to earn XP.

He was already satisfied with his reward: [XP +20].

Defeating the president was indeed much more lucrative.

However, now that they were no longer enemies, a second fight naturally wasn’t going to happen.

Thulhu sighed inwardly.

And now it was time for him to leave.

The wind was blowing.

The wind was blowing violently.

Suddenly, the wind sent a chill through Thulhu and down his spine!

This feeling… This feeling! He wasn’t mistaken: It was the shadow murderer!

Thulhu’s eyebrows knitted tightly and he looked around, on high alert.

Leaves rustled.

Like liquid, a shadow flowed out of the woods and quickly merged with theirs.

Thulhu and Donald, who both knew how to fight well, only had the time to exchange looks, when some unknown power instantly froze them.

It was the murderer!

Thulhu couldn’t move, but he could think. He wondered why the shadow came out today. Was it because of Molly? Or was it because of his fight with Donald here in the woods?

The same thing had happened to him twice, but there was nothing Thulhu could do.

His desire for power burned furiously in his gut.

Not enough! It was far from enough!

Defeating a fight club was nothing!

In front of extraordinary power, his achievement was still nothing at all!

Thulhu needed power, much greater power!
