Chapter 173 Boxing Champion
"I thought the so-called underground boxing ring should be well-established..."
Annan, who came to see the fun today, had to say that he was a little disappointed.
This so-called underground boxing ring, where many people gathered, was actually an open space hidden behind a garbage dump that had been simply cleared.
Although you can't smell the stench of a garbage dump here, seeing this kind of environment is a bit disappointing.
"I thought it would be like the comics I read in my previous life, with complete equipment and facilities, but it seems I overthought it."
Annan, who blended into the crowd very naturally, glanced openly at the direction of the protagonist of this boxing match.
Roderick, who had been specially dressed up, looked completely incompatible with the venue. However, the appearance of the leader of the largest faction of the Coulier Gang beside him was actually just as good as before.
This guy with a big bald head and dressed in gold and silver who looks like a rapper is the current leader of the most powerful faction of the Coulier Gang, and his name is Eero.
The two gang bosses were surrounded by many younger brothers supporting the scene, but in terms of momentum, Roderick, who had fewer people, was still a bit weaker.
This is something that can't be helped. Although Roderick, who inherited the entire family property, is very rich, there are not many people who are willing to follow him, and the number of new people joining is also small.
Hank, the middle-aged gangster who Annan had met before and was not very popular, was now standing beside Roderick to supplement his numbers. If it had been in the past, the Nares gang would never have found this kind of gangster to stand beside him. Beside the boss.
"In short, it's a matter of momentum. Even if you are a gangster, you still have to look at your face. This is really the reality of this world."
Annan held a cigarette in his mouth and took two gentle bites.
Sweet and delicious.
What was in his mouth was actually cigarette candy.
"The competition should be about to start. I don't know what kind of medicine is in this challenge."
Annan heard a noise from the crowd in his ears. He immediately turned his head and saw representatives of the gangs on both sides appearing at that moment.
Shirtless Caleb. Ruth, with a serious face and quite imposing manner, walked out of the stilt house nearby.
This former boxing champion in underground boxing matches does not need anyone to follow him. He is full of the aura of a beast, which is enough to put pressure on people.
"The former Coulier Gang underground boxing champion?"
Annan naturally knew the past of this former underground boxing champion.
According to his own account, he once stayed in the Coulier Gang fighting arena as a thug.
Caleb. Russ was born very strong. Even if he didn't know any formal boxing methods, he was still very strong just relying on instinct and physical ability.
Coupled with his unknown bloodline of dark creatures, it is difficult for ordinary people to beat him, let alone in underground boxing matches with varying quality.
The Coulier Gang has been operating this kind of underground boxing ring for a long time, and uses it to make money through gambling. An underground boxing champion with a winning streak can be said to be a golden sign.
As long as this sign is still obedient.
Once, Caleb. Ruth was asked by his boss at the time to lose a game, and to lose in such a way that no one else could see it. He agreed without thinking.
The so-called champion or winner's pride, Caleb. Ruth didn't have any of these things in his mind. Since it was the boss's order, he had no choice but to listen.
But, something unexpected happened.
Caleb, who originally tried hard to lose to his opponent. Russ, probably due to the real fire relationship and some stimulation from his opponents, the beastly nature of the orc in him was unconsciously aroused, making him impulsive and completely forgetting the boss's instructions.
The final result was that he defeated his opponent and severely injured him, almost killing him on the spot.
This kind of result that was different from expectations was naturally unlikely to make the boss of the Coulier Gang happy at the time. It would be better to say that the boss was quite angry.
It is said that he bet a lot of money with others in this game and cooperated well with some people. If such an unsatisfactory situation occurs, it will certainly make him furious.
After that remarkable game ended, Caleb. Of course, Ruth was punished immediately, but at that time, the animal nature in his body had not yet completely calmed down, so he resisted like an out-of-control man.
Caleb. Ruth seemed to have almost jumped on the boss. If he had succeeded, he would probably have broken the boss's neck with both hands.
But he failed. He was shot and stopped by the guard of the boss on the side. Then, when he woke up a little, he knew that he had made a big mistake. However, these things could not be explained. The only way he could think of was to escape quickly.
At that time, he didn't know the existence of the orc blood in his body, and he didn't know what he did to be so bold as to disobey the order.
Then, while on the run, Caleb. Ruth meets Veronica by chance.
Veronica discovers Caleb. When he was Ruth, part of this man's body had turned into a half-animal due to the power of dark creatures that he couldn't control well. If he had met other people at that time, he would probably have been rounded up by the police's magic department. .
It can only be said that everything is luck. Veronica took in and accepted Caleb. Russ informed him of the bloodline of the dark creature that he did not know, and then settled the matter with the Coulier Gang through his connections with the Nares Gang.
In order to help Caleb. Ruth paid a lot at that time, and because of this, Caleb. Ruth was extremely grateful to this woman.
"Caleb Russ has been exercising continuously to retain his strength, but it's true that he hasn't fought in this kind of competition for a long time, and I don't know how he will compare with the current underground boxing champions."
Annan turned his attention to the opponents from the Coulier gang.
Caleb, who is nearly two meters tall. Russ was already quite tall and strong, but the underground boxing champion of the Coulier Gang was as strong as a bear.
When he saw the other party for the first time, the first thought that came to Annan's mind was that the other party might be a dark creature, or had been transformed by black magic. However, after looking at it for a few more times, he had no inspiration at all. reaction.
In other words, it is very likely that this person is really just gifted.
"Well, this person's facial features and expression, and his attitude...could he be mentally retarded?"
After Annan observed the incredibly strong man who looked like a black bear for a while, he probably understood what was going on.
Probably in order to take care of this mentally disabled person, there are always people around him to take care of him.
Those people are not little brothers, they are nannies.
Having said that, apart from the issue of intelligence, the opponent's physique is still too unusual.
"Is it a natural deformity? Or is it due to the use of acquired drugs? It's fine, though."
Annan didn't know how the other party fell to this point, but he didn't feel sorry for the other party. He just simply felt that the gangs here were really made up of a bunch of bastards.
"Ha, are you fighting a guy who has muscles all over his body but no brains? This is really an underground boxing match that is quite harsh in all aspects."
