I Carry a Game World With Me

Chapter 171: Chapter 159: Testing People’s Hearts, Calm Because I’m Invincible

Red Lizard had been around Thornwa for a very long time, and this was the first time he’d ever seen such a scrawny guy dare to step into the ring.

This was basically a freebie.

Hadona didn’t forget to translate for Lu Feng. "President Lu, this Red Lizard is asking if you’ve come up here to die!"

Hearing this, Lu Feng simply raised a hand and beckoned to Red Lizard, inviting him to make the first move.

It was an extremely provocative gesture.

As expected, Red Lizard was enraged. "Kid, you dare provoke me like that? What, you think you know kung fu or something?"

Hadona continued to translate. "President Lu, he says you’re provoking him. He’s asking if you really think you know kung fu."

Before he could even finish, Red Lizard was already throwing a punch at Lu Feng.

As the man with a four-win streak, he wasn’t about to go easy on this guy. It was pure stupidity for someone so weak to dare step into the ring in the first place.

Besides, after he dealt with this opponent, he wouldn’t even count it as his fifth straight win. There was no difficulty, no challenge. He would just fight someone else to earn his fifth victory.

Red Lizard was, indeed, very strong.

After all, no one who dared to step into this ring was weak.

And besides, he had a four-win streak.

But in Lu Feng’s eyes, his speed was far too slow.

After all, Lu Feng’s current base attributes were more than three times those of an ordinary person.

In that instant, Lu Feng threw a punch. It shot out, overtaking his opponent’s, and landed squarely on Red Lizard’s face first.

Red Lizard didn’t even have time to react. His head went fuzzy, and his entire body was sent flying sideways, rolling violently on the ground. For a good while, he couldn’t even get back up.

The surroundings suddenly fell silent. Everyone stared at Lu Feng in disbelief, unable to comprehend how such a scrawny body could unleash such terrifying power.

That was Red Lizard! How was he taken out in a single punch?

A moment later, a quiet uproar began to stir:

"Does... does he really... know kung fu?"

"How did he do that?"

"Simply unbelievable!"

"..."

Indeed, everyone was completely stunned.

Hadona was translating the crowd’s reactions for Lu Feng, but Lu Feng paid them no mind. He knew he hadn’t even used his special abilities, any of the skills from the game, or even his mecha weapons.

If he’d wanted to, he could have used any one of those things to instantly defeat Red Lizard.

It took Red Lizard a long time to catch his breath. His face, now black, blue, and swollen, was a mask of shock as he stared at Lu Feng.

He had stepped into the ring today aiming for a five-win streak. He never imagined he’d be knocked down with a single punch. The crucial part was, he hadn’t even been able to react.

His opponent’s power wasn’t just terrifying; his speed was too fast to follow.

Lu Feng looked at the stunned crowd, and not wanting to waste any more time, announced, "I’m looking to recruit a group of people. The pay will be based on the highest standards here. Anyone who wants to join, call his number."

As he spoke, he pointed to Hadona.

The burly men in the crowd hardly understood a word he said. Hadona translated for him again, then wrote his own phone number on the message board nearby.

Only then did everyone understand what was happening.

The man who had instantly defeated Red Lizard was actually here to recruit people—and at the highest pay rate, no less.

The uproar started up again!

Before long, news spread that a young man from Hua Country had instantly defeated Red Lizard in the ring and was recruiting people at the highest pay rate.

Just like that, Lu Feng’s name became known throughout Thornwa.

Moreover, he didn’t wait around; he left first.

He had already learned from Hadona that most of the people in the square were cannon-fodder level. Recruiting them would only serve to fill up the numbers, and they were quick to desert when things got tough.

If all those people swarmed them at once, it would be difficult to sort through them.

It was better to leave first and have people call Hadona. Then he could have Hadona and Black Snake distinguish the elites from the rest. This would prevent chaos and avoid recruiting more cannon fodder.

「Just one day later.」

Black Snake and Hadona had already helped him assemble a small team of a dozen or so men.

They were all elites, the kind of fighters who could hold their own in the Thornwa square.

When Lu Feng came out, he saw the men. Each one was a burly man, their bodies covered in muscle.

This wasn’t the stiff, showy muscle you get from a gym, but lean, healthy, and natural muscle.

Furthermore, these were all elite fighters confirmed by Hadona.

Just as Lu Feng was about to speak, a figure ran in, his face wrapped in gauze and ice packs to reduce the swelling.

It was none other than Red Lizard, the man he had taken out with a single punch.

"President Lu, I want to join your recruitment!" Red Lizard pleaded hurriedly as soon as he entered.

Hadona once again acted as the translator.

Lu Feng naturally didn’t refuse Red Lizard. It made no difference to him whether the man was sincere or not. He just needed some people to help with the legwork. He couldn’t be here for a weapons transaction and still have to do everything himself.

Besides, Red Lizard’s skills were excellent, far surpassing the average person. Recruiting him wasn’t a bad idea.

As for whether he would continue to use him in the future, that was a question for after the weapons deal.

Lu Feng then said, "Since you have all joined my recruitment, I’ll state my purpose. This time, I’m going to Dalat Town to trade weapons. Your pay will not be short-changed; it will absolutely be the highest rate. Black Snake, distribute their payment."

As he spoke, he took out a small bag and placed it on the table in front of him.

Hadona, of course, immediately translated.

Black Snake took the bag, curious as to what President Lu was going to use for payment. It clearly couldn’t be cash, since the bag couldn’t hold much money.

But the bag was surprisingly heavy.

When he opened the bag, a look of astonishment crossed his face. Inside were gleaming gold bars.
