Chapter 167 Rhine
Chapter 167 Rhine
"You brat! It's you again! I'm going to break your legs today! Get him!"
The blond-haired man clearly knew the red-haired boy and they seemed to have some past grudges against him, so a group of thugs rushed over.
The red-haired boy remained calm, seemingly unfazed.
A fast runner had already arrived, and threw a punch. The fist, the size of a sandbag, was about to smash into the boy's face.
A smile appeared on the man's face, but it only lasted for a second. He stepped on a rotten vegetable leaf with one foot. He had used all his strength in that punch, and with that slip, he lost his balance and fell face-first to the ground, knocking out two of his front teeth.
The red-haired boy kicked the person who was lying in front of him groaning.
"You can't even stand properly, yet you're trying to fight! Go back and train for another two years!"
The man lying on the ground grew angrier and angrier. He didn't know where the strength came from, but he suddenly stood up by pushing himself up with his hands. Just then, someone behind him arrived, and the top of his head made intimate contact with the newcomer's chin, resulting in two more cries of pain.
"Are you blind? Why did you suddenly stand up?!"
"I'm blind? You came from behind! You're saying I'm blind? Are you looking for trouble!"
The blond-haired man's lips twitched. The fight hadn't even started yet, and his side was already about to start fighting.
"Damn it! You two shut up!"
Suddenly, an invisible wave emanated from the blond-haired man and spread outwards. The two men trembled simultaneously and immediately shut their mouths.
The civilians watching around shuddered, a sense of fear rising inexplicably in their hearts, and they all subconsciously took a step back.
Looking at the reactions of those around him, the blond-haired man was quite pleased. That's right, this was his awakened skill 'Intimidation'. After activating the skill, he could instill fear in people of lower levels than himself. Although the effect of this skill was rather weak, it was still very useful in front of ordinary people, and basically no one dared to resist him.
"If we don't catch this brat today, I'll show you what's what!"
The others didn't dare to be negligent and rushed over.
The red-haired boy dodged awkwardly but didn't forget to make a few sarcastic remarks. Every time he was about to be caught, some unexpected event would occur, allowing him to escape by chance.
Diana took out an apple, took a bite, and then handed another apple to Jenny.
"What a closely fought battle!"
From the moment the red-haired boy appeared, Jenny's gaze never left him.
"Rhine!"
Images from deep within my memory resurfaced.
A little girl was kneeling on the ground, wiping away tears. Three boys were standing around her.
"What a crybaby!"
A boy threw his patched rag doll on the ground and stomped on it twice.
"I thought it was some kind of treasure! As expected, Ma Zi's stuff is just as ugly!"
The little girl tried to pick up the doll in front of her, but was kicked far away.
"Hahaha! I'll crawl over and pick it up and give it back to you!"
Large tears slid down her cheeks. Just as the little girl was about to crawl over, a childish voice rang out.
"Stop! Let that girl go!"
Immediately afterwards, a figure rushed over and punched the boy in the face, followed by curses and the sounds of fighting.
The little girl hugged her head tightly. After a long time, the surrounding noise disappeared, and footsteps gradually approached. Her body began to tremble again.
"It's alright! I've chased them away!"
The little girl slowly opened her eyes. In front of her was the rag doll her mother had made for her. She took the doll and looked up at it.
It was a boy with striking red hair, which was now very messy, and there was a trace of blood on the corner of his mouth.
The boy wiped his nose and smiled.
"If they bully you again, come find me! My name is Rhine, a champion of justice!"

"Jenny? Hey~ Jenny!"
Jenny snapped back to reality, and Diana was waving in front of her.
"W-what's wrong, Anna?!"
Diana took a bite of her apple, her face darting suspiciously between the red-haired boy and Jenny. 'Oh no! Could Jenny have fallen for this boy?'
Rhine was still dealing with the group when he glanced at Diana and nearly coughed up blood. "What's wrong with these two? I'm holding these people off, and instead of leaving, they're just watching the drama unfold!"
Rhine shook off the others and ran in that direction, grabbing one of them and running into the alley.
"Follow up quickly!"
Diana froze for a second, then exclaimed, "Holy crap! This is outright robbery!"
Diana popped the half-eaten apple into her mouth and followed.
"Damn it! You bunch of useless trash! Chase after them!"
Huang Mao was very frustrated. This kid was like an eel, always managing to escape. Even when he caught him, all sorts of unexpected things would happen.
"It's really evil!"
