Lancelot crossed his arms in defense, intending to take the punch head-on.
Normally, blocking this punch with both hands would be enough.
But Gu Ran's punch was not so simple.
It's a fist imbued with chakra, Cherry Blossom Rush!
Bang!
Lancelot, like a kite with a broken string, suddenly began to retreat rapidly.
His legs, which were standing on the ground, kept scraping against the ground. He had retreated nearly ten meters before he could stand still!
The moment Lancelot was struck by Gu Ran's fist, he felt his hands, which he was using for defense, go numb, as if they were about to lose all feeling.
He has an A-grade bloodline, and his physical attributes far surpass those of others. Even when fighting against Chu Zihang, he did not feel such formidable power.
Taking advantage of the moment he retreated, Gu Ran immediately moved forward at an astonishing speed, closing in on Lancelot, and then used a hand chop thrust to stab at Lancelot's left upper arm.
Lancelot, unaware of Gu Ran's intentions, assumed it was Gu Ran's mistake and seized the opportunity to move closer, preparing to deliver an elbow strike to Gu Ran.
But he suddenly felt a pain in his arm; the skin on his arm had been cut open.
This is because Gu Ran just used the Chakra Scalpel!
Lancelot's elbow strike didn't land properly because Gu Ran was prepared and dodged his close-range attack.
Then he changed tactics and delivered another Shadow Dance Leaf kick to Lancelot!
Lancelot reacted quickly, but dared not use his hand to block, and only dared to dodge to the side.
Gu Ran had been waiting for this moment. The instant Lancelot turned to the side, Gu Ran seized him from behind and grabbed him by the neck.
"You flatter me, senior." Gu Ran looked at Su Qian.
Susie raised her hand and announced the result.
Gu Ran immediately released Lancelot and took out a handkerchief to wipe the blood from his upper arm: "I'm sorry, senior, I accidentally lost control."
Lancelot wasn't angry; he just stared at his wound and asked, "What kind of move is that?"
"Wing Chun finger style." Gu Ran had already come up with an excuse.
Lancelot seemed to be deep in thought. He seemed to have seen the Wing Chun finger-pointing technique before, and it was indeed similar to Gu Ran's move back then.
But it doesn't seem to be that lethal, and it's not that sharp either.
I have no idea how he trained.
Lancelot asked again, "How...how can you be so strong? Did you use a spell?"
"No, I can't use Word Magic here, I don't know why." Gu Ran pretended to know nothing.
Susie then brought over the first-aid kit, treating Gu Ran like a complete novice, and explained, "There's a night watchman in the school, who is also the vice principal. His Word of Power is 'Commandment,' so everyone else's Word of Power won't work."
"Oh... then his range of words is quite large." Gu Ran nodded as if he understood, looking like an adorable baby.
"Because the school has an alchemical matrix, it amplifies the effect of the Word of Power."
At this moment, Susie was cleaning Lancelot's wound with disinfectant.
Lancelot stared at her face and said softly, "Thank you."
"It's nothing," Susie said.
Gu Ran laughed from the side, "I envy you, senior! If I had known I was injured too, I would have asked my senior sister to bandage me herself!"
Susie gave him an annoyed look: "You still haven't answered why you're so strong?"
Gu Ran raised his right fist: "By the way, have you two seniors seen Stephen Chow's 'New Fist of Fury'?"
Lancelot shook his head.
Susie said, "I've seen it."
Gu Ran laughed and said, "That explains it. My right hand is naturally strong! That's why I was worried that if I hurt my senior sister, she would cry for a long time."
Susie was still somewhat skeptical. She had already bandaged Lancelot's arm wound and then squeezed Lancelot's wrist.
"Hiss!" Lancelot immediately gasped, it hurt.
Susie then realized the seriousness of the problem: "Could it be a broken bone?"
Gu Ran was also taken aback.
I didn't use my full strength!
Since it was just a friendly spar, Gu Ran naturally held back, afraid that he might lose control and kill someone.
A-grade hybrids aren't that fragile, are they?
“I can’t feel the skin and muscles around my wrist, but I can still move my hand, so it shouldn’t be a fracture,” Lancelot said.
"Just to be on the safe side, let's go to the school clinic and get an X-ray," Susie said.
The two quickly took Lancelot to the school clinic for an X-ray examination.
My bone is fractured.
A bone fracture is a crack in the bone, which is also a type of fracture, but it is not as serious as a displaced (broken) fracture.
Lancelot has a crack of about 5 millimeters in each of his arm bones.
"It's not a big problem. At first, you couldn't feel your hands because of poor blood circulation. You should be able to feel them now. As for the fracture, it will heal in a few days." The school doctor put triangular bandages on Lancelot's hands and used splints to immobilize them.
The school doctor continued, "Supplement your diet with calcium and protein. With your mixed-race constitution, you should be able to remove the splint in a few days, but be careful not to cause further injury."
“Okay,” Lancelot replied.
The three left the infirmary, and Gu Ran said somewhat embarrassedly, "I'm sorry, senior, I wasn't paying attention."
"Do not blame you."
At that time, Lancelot underestimated the power of Gu Ran's punch, and instead of deflecting the force, he chose to take it head-on.
That's how he got injured.
If he had known that Gu Ran's right hand was so strong, he wouldn't have taken the hit head-on.
Chapter 102 Freshman Lunch
In fact, when Lancelot recalled Gu Ran's punch more carefully, the power was not actually that bad. It was just that his fist was particularly hard, like swinging a giant iron sledgehammer, capable of cracking the ground.
The punch landed so hard that it numbed the veins in his hand.
Gu Ran could use the Palm Healing Technique to heal Lancelot at this time, which would promote his recovery.
However, Lancelot had already been to the infirmary, and further treatment would easily expose his true strength and attract attention.
He doesn't want to be in the spotlight yet.
The three returned to the Lionheart Society's territory.
Lancelot looked at Gu Ran and said, "Gu Ran, I invite you to join the Lionheart Society."
"If I join the Lionheart Society, will I have to fight every day?" Gu Ran asked.
Susie laughed and said, "We just wanted to test your abilities and see if you were worth recruiting. It's not like we want to fight every day."
“Senior sister, you weren’t like this when you were provoking me just now,” Gu Ran sighed. “No wonder they say women are fickle. You shot Nuonuo yesterday during the day, you didn’t end up sleeping with her in bed last night, did you?”
Susie paused for a moment, then blushed and asked, "How did you know?"
She really did sleep with Nuonuo in her arms last night.
Susie and Nono often clash over their positions due to the conflict between the Lionheart Society and the Student Council.
But once they get back to the dorm, they make up like best friends again.
"Hmm, it's all based on guessing and imagination..." Gu Ran stared at Su Qian's beautiful face, then suddenly thought of Nuonuo, and then imagined what it was like when they soaked in the hot spring together.
"Hey, what you're thinking about right now isn't anything good!" At that moment, a girl with red hair and a hot figure walked over.
It was Nono.
Nono looked into Gu Ran's eyes and stared for a while: "It seems you really like reading yuri comics... I should go find Norma and check your browser history when I get the chance."
"No, I just think it's nice for girls to be like this!" Gu Ran said, quoting a famous line from Tsumugi-sama in K-On!.
However, it seemed that no one present understood it; only Lu Mingfei had seen it with him on the plane.
Nono then looked at Lancelot, whose hand was wrapped in bandages: "Oh, you're injured? Got beaten up? But... seeing that you're injured... you seem pretty happy about it... You're not a masochist, are you?"
"Ew~" Gu Ran made a disgusted sound in cooperation.
Lancelot was slightly embarrassed, his eyelids lowered, and he glanced at Susie out of the corner of his eye.
"Oh~" Nono let out a long sound to indicate that she understood, and then looked at her best friend.
Susie didn't say anything extra, only telling Lancelot to take care of himself, just like a regular friend would.
Nono didn't say anything sarcastic like, "You should take care of him so he can recover faster."
Gu Ran silently thought to herself: The interpersonal relationships in the Lionheart Society are really complicated. She likes him, but he doesn't like her. Then he likes her, but she doesn't like him.
He packed his things and prepared to leave this place of trouble.
Nuonuo looked at Gu Ran, who was about to run away, and said, "What, you're leaving after just meeting me once? We know each other, you didn't even say hello when you came to school!"
"I'm rushing to lunch. It's a welcome lunch for new students today, and I'd seem out of place if I didn't go." Gu Ran glanced at the sun in the sky; it was almost noon.
Nono was supposed to be proctoring the 3E exam today, and since she's already here, it means the exam is over.
The new students gradually gathered at the canteen.
Nono spread her hands in front of him.
Gu Ran stared at her in confusion.
“A gift,” Nono said. “I saw the gift you gave to Professor Guderian today. Judging from your eyes, I think I got one too.”
"Do you think I'm Santa Claus, carrying presents with me all the time?" Gu Ran said irritably. "I'll give them to you when we get back!"
Before he came to Kassel College, he did prepare a gift for Nono as a way of thanking her for her help.
Chu Zihang also had one, because he had long planned to have his senior brother teach him swordsmanship.
