Infinite Divine Gears in the City

Chapter 6

“If you really need money, I still have some savings…”

“Don’t! Brother Xie, you earn just about the same as I do. Plus, you just got married and are going to have a child soon. You already have enough on your plate with the car and house loans. Don’t you dare try to pretend that it isn’t a big deal.”

Li Rui paused for a while and looked at him sincerely. “But I appreciate the thought.”

“Then… you better be more careful during the match. Just give up if you have to.”

“I understand, don’t worry.”

After dealing with Xie Guangyan, Li Rui took out his phone and started studying his opponent’s information.

[ID:AACFU27618736]

Nickname: Jaguar

Real Name: [Unknown]

Height: 198 cm

Weight: 83 Kg

Past record:

– Amateur Level: 21 wins 3 losses, 13 KOs, 2 kills.

– Professional Level: 13 wins 7 losses…

Upon looking at the record alone, this match was a suicide mission.

His opponent was already one of the best among the professional fighters; it would be a piece of cake for him to defeat Li Rui who was an amateur and still in high school.

But as he opened another file, Li Rui’s eyes turned cold. This was where he had gotten his confidence from and the reason why he had chosen to fight this guy.

The information from before this was only official data; you could only get a rough idea of your opponent.

This other set of information provided by Brother Lei even included his opponent’s favorite underwear color.

Jaguar’s real name was Howard Alsop and he was from California. He grew up in a black slum and was discovered by a coach as a teenager. After a few years of training under the system, he joined wrestling competitions, which were surprisingly the most popular thing in this world.

After looking at the dark circles under Howard’s eyes in the picture, Li Rui smirked.

What would happen to a poor man who suddenly earned a fortune?

Lots of sports stars had already given the answer to that question, and Howard Alsop was no exception.

Fancy cars, luxurious wine, luxurious spending, uncovered meetings…

Gradually, it seemed that these were no longer enough to excite him, and he turned his attention to the innocent people.

According to the information, Howard had been involved with a total of nine juvenile cases. The oldest was only fourteen, and the youngest was merely seven years old.

Two of the girls involved had even lost their lives.

This news had caused a major uproar in the United States.

But the lawyer that Howard had requested was a very powerful one, so in the end, he was declared ‘not guilty’ in court due to insufficient evidence.

Of course, ever since then, he had become a national figure that everyone hated.

As all of his assets had been completely used up to hire his lawyers, so he had resorted to participating in matches in other countries to earn a living.

None of these things were as terrible as the fact that he had started something that any sportsman should avoid — cocaine.

In just a few years time, he had shrunken from a muscular demon at a peak of 130kg to only 83kg. He was just like a stick that would fall when the wind blew.

The drug had already completely destroyed his body.

His strength had been progressively weakened, and he was no longer able to fight in the major competitions. Therefore, he was only left with these amateur-level competitions.

Li Rui slowly closed his eyes and recalled the opponent’s technical and tactical characteristics which helped him gain another touch of confidence.

Seize the opportunity…

Li Rui looked at his fist with killing intentions coming from his eyes.

He would never let these scumbags walk away alive.

He was helping the world get rid of its trash.

Time passed by quickly. Soon, the sun was setting, and the fitness center was gradually becoming livelier.

“Little Rui, Brother Lei is here already. He’s asking for you in his office.”

“Okay, thank you.”

After adjusting his condition, Li Rui walked toward the office and gently knocked on the door.

“Come in.”

A deep, thick male voice like a tiger growling came from inside. Li Rui pushed the door open and saw the man standing by the window.

He was at least 2 meters tall with an extremely buff body that was packed with muscles. The supposedly loose clothes that he was wearing had become tight. His arm was even thicker than Li Rui’s thigh. The tiny blood vessels were like snakes crawling all over his body as he moved. His entire figure screamed violence.

“Brother Lei!”

“Little Rui, you’re here! Have you completed all the formalities?”

“It’s done. Thank you, Brother Lei!”

“You don’t have to thank me; it was your choice. All I did was provide you with an opportunity. I hope that you don’t blame me for it in the future.”

The man turned around and looked at Li Rui with a trace of sympathy.

Li Rui is still a child. He should be carefree and happily spending his time in school. However, the cruel reality had forced him into the ring…

Wang Lei suddenly felt guilty.

“Brother Lei, I would never blame you! That’s stupid!”

Li Rui smiled as he gave him a punch. The atmosphere between them was more like brothers rather than subordinates.

Brother Lei shook his head and touched his chin. There were already stubbles even though he had just shaved this morning.

“By the way, how is Little Wei?”

“All thanks to the Old Ginseng and the nutritious fluids that you found, she’s better now.”

Li Rui gave a heartless smile.

Wang Lei thoughtfully glanced at him but did not further intervene.

“I’ve heard that there is a very powerful master in LongHu Mountain who has expertise in dealing with those dirty things. Once I know more about it, I’ll bring you guys there for a look.”

“Okay, thank you!”

Li Rui answered gratefully.

Although it would most likely be a scammer, as long as there was hope, he still wanted to try.

“It’s not a big deal, don’t worry about it.”

Wang Lei waved his hand and told Li Rui to sit on the sofa.

“Are you confident about the match tonight?”

“I guess.”

“Wow, someone is arrogant.”

Upon hearing these words, Li Rui felt a little dissatisfied.

Ever since he had entered into this world, although his system had not been fully activated, his soul had been far more mature than his peers since childhood.

Although he was only sixteen years old now, his body condition was even better than the NBA players in his previous world.

After gaining EXP after the first match, he had started developing Martial Arts, and he had always been curious about the hidden supernatural strength in him.

To use peerless skills for righteousness and justice!

Wasn’t it every guy’s dream to be a hero?

Ever since elementary school, he had been participating in amateur competitions for children and had even become the national champion in the Junior High Championship. He had been beating all of his opponents ever since he was a child, and this was the source of all of his self-confidence.

“What’s wrong? You’re not convinced?”

Wang Lei smiled.

“Yes, it’s true that your physique is the best among your peers, but this time, your opponents aren’t those little kids. He was a professional boxer before this!”

“Although his physical strength may not be as powerful as yours, his experience and skills are no joke when compared to someone like you who hasn’t even been in a professional ring before.”

“Plus, the most important thing is that he has seen blood whereas you’re just a small flower that has been growing in a glasshouse. This point alone is enough to wipe out all of your advantages.”

Li Rui then became speechless.

It was true. Li Rui had killed chickens, slaughtered cows, and had even hunted a wild boar with his bare hands just to activate the system.

He had already killed all sorts of mammals!

Other than… humans!
