Awakening the War God novel Chapter 240

"At the basketball club-of Winner Takes All...!"

As Gabriel stood outside the place that Orion had mentioned as the underground boxing club, he furrowed his brows.

It was, surprisingly, a basketball club. The bright lights illuminated the area, and on a massive billboard, he spotted posters of Dragon Kingdom's basketball stars.

"This is supposed to be an underground boxing club, and they've gone all out with a basketball club facade," Gabriel commented, rather puzzled.

He glanced around and noticed that it had good acoustics, with a full parking lot dominated by luxurious cars, many of them sports cars preferred by the younger crowd.

Occasionally, hip youngsters entered the club with stylishly dressed, sultry ladies, showcasing their assets-in line with the club's theme.

"Are they here for sports or just some sort of game?" Gabriel muttered to himself as he followed the group of young people.

However, two security guards blocked his path once the young crowd had entered the club.

"This is a private club, no entry without a membership," the guard informed him, extending his hand with a disdainful look.

The guard's occupation seemed to have given him a sense of superiority.

"Uh... I'm a new boxer," Gabriel replied with a lighthearted laugh, trying to appear friendly.

"Boxer?" The guard appeared unconvinced. "Do you even know where you are? Besides, you look as skinny as a dog. Are you sure you're a boxer? Show me your pass, or else, not even a dog can get in."

Gabriel's expression darkened as the guard questioned his credentials. He responded coldly, "I don't have a pass, but I've got something that can serve as one."

The guard looked puzzled. "What's that?"

"It's a fist," Gabriel's gaze suddenly sharpened. He reached out with a claw-like hand and seized the guard who had been blocking his way.

With a sudden twist, Gabriel snapped the guard's arm.

The guard screamed in pain as Gabriel's punch landed heavily on his mouth, causing him to bleed profusely and lose several teeth.

The other guard, witnessing this, went pale with shock.

In a hurry, he grabbed his walkie-talkie and called out, "There's trouble at the entrance... trouble at the entrance..."

His words were cut short as Gabriel sent him flying with a powerful kick to the stomach.

"Noisy," Gabriel muttered, his face still as cold as ice, as he confronted the guard with the bleeding mouth.

He grabbed the guard's hair, his voice icy as he asked, "Who were you calling a dog just now? Your condescending attitude at the entrance was truly bewildering."

Gabriel had initially planned to blend in or scale the wall if necessary. But the guard's offensive words left him no choice but to take action.

At this moment, another group of security personnel rushed out through the club's entrance.

The leader, a man in a suit, looked at the two guards lying on the ground and his expression turned dark.

"You've lost your mind. Do you realize where you are? This is no place for such trouble," the man in the suit said, his voice full of disdain.

"I had no idea," Gabriel replied with a cold gaze, still holding his breath. If the man provoked him further, he wouldn't mind fighting his way inside.

The man in the suit recognized that Gabriel was no ordinary troublemaker, but looking at his subordinates who had been beaten, he decided to take a tougher stance.

"You truly have no understanding of the situation. Get him!"

With his command, seven other men in black suits immediately charged at Gabriel.

"Let's warm up a bit before we go crow hunting," Gabriel's gaze turned icy as he tightened his right fist. His fingers let out a satisfying crack.
