Chapter 63: Encounter Under the Inverted Waterfall! (Asking for follow-up reading!!)

One punch.

One punch.

Another punch.

Hawk, standing under the waterfall, while using his pure physical body to resist the washing of the waterfall water, firmly threw his punches under the resistance of the waterfall water.

Every time he threw a punch, the cross-section of the water flow that came into contact with his fist would have a brief pause of less than an instant.

But...

Not enough!

What he wanted wasn't for the waterfall water to pause for his fist.

What he wanted was for this waterfall water to tremble under his fist, and even, to flow backward for it.

Hawk felt his requirements weren't high.

After all, this waterfall in front of him wasn't the Lushan Waterfall; if he were to compare this waterfall to the Lushan Waterfall, it probably wasn't even one-tenth as magnificent as the Lushan Waterfall.

So, was this excessive?

This wasn't excessive.

But clearly, this idea of his still made the waterfall in front of him angry.

What level do you think you are to make me flow backward.

Do you think you are Poseidon, the Sea King?

And even if it were Poseidon, the Sea King, it wouldn't work; he is the Sea King, he manages seawater, and he can manage my freshwater waterfall?

So...

The waterfall was angry; under Hawk's persistent punch after punch, the speed of the water flow increased at a speed almost visible to the naked eye.

Hawk felt the waterfall that was now angry, and was expressionless.

But in the Little Universe, the Phoenix constellation star map, which had been completely lit up, a fire phoenix was slowly emerging with its figure.

He decided.

When the waterfall in front of him flows backward, he will leave.

Although there were only a few days left until school started.

But it didn't matter.

Still the same sentence.

He was an orphan, and it was estimated that even if he didn't go to school after school started, no one would care about him.

But that was also good.

No one cared about him, and he didn't have anyone he needed to care about.

So...

The fighting spirit in Hawk's eyes was burning fiercely.

"Come on!"

The waterfall was completely angry; under this provocation from Hawk, the water flow became even more urgent and violent.

"Rumble!"

"... Thunder?"

Gwen, who was at the northernmost edge of Cunningham Falls State Park, which could be considered as having just entered the nature protection forest, listened to the rumbling sound coming from afar and looked up subconsciously.

But the primeval trees that covered the sky blocked the sky, and only the sunlight spilled in through the gaps in the leaves, but the mottled light spots added a touch of eeriness to this already quiet forest.

Gwen, seeing that she couldn't see the sky, withdrew her gaze.

Gwen, wearing a conspicuous white windbreaker and a pair of outdoor sports shoes, took out her phone, lit up the screen, and looked at a positioning map that appeared on the screen.

Before her eyes.

Two light spots, although separated by a long distance, were looming and could already be displayed on the same screen.

One of them showed Gwen's current location.

The other...

Gwen took a deep breath, grabbed the hiking stick she bought after arriving in Thurmont yesterday afternoon, cheered herself up in her heart, and lifted her feet again to walk toward the positioning direction of the other light spot.

At first, Gwen thought Hawk's phone was just stolen and didn't take it to heart.

After all, she was also busy with her summer job.

But the next day, Dr. Connors suddenly asked if she had given that gift to Hawk, which made Gwen feel a bit strange, so she went to Hawk's new apartment again after work.

As a result...

The envelope she had placed on the sofa at the time was still lying quietly on the sofa, not having moved at all.

Don't know why, Gwen suddenly felt her heart panic for a moment at that moment.

She immediately called her father, George, hoping her father could see if he could find Hawk through the New York Police Department.

George didn't take it to heart at first, but looking at Gwen, who was full of worry, he thought about it and still greeted his colleagues at the Queens precinct.

His jurisdiction was in Manhattan, and while he could check for missing persons across the Queens precinct, he still had to greet his colleagues at the Queens precinct.

The result was that there was no such person.

Hawk seemed to have evaporated from the world.

And Hawk didn't have a credit card, nor did he have a driver's license, and besides, his phone was now powered off, so he couldn't be found.

To put it bluntly, Hawk was very much like a transparent person living in modern life.

No family.

No social life.

Even without a single friend, the colleagues at the Queens precinct, even after filing a case, didn't know where to start the investigation.

Because no one could provide where Hawk last appeared, and even when asking a few of Hawk's classmates, no one cared to ask what happened to Hawk.

Uh...

Except for Gwen.

Until the day before yesterday, George, who had just returned home, looked at his daughter, who had been coming home later than him for these days and had been searching for Hawk's traces outside, and finally couldn't help but ask the question he had always wanted to ask: "Gwen, do you like this Hawk?"

Gwen, who had just returned from a certain cemetery in Queens, listened to this sentence from George, was stunned for a moment, and then gave an answer.

"Dad, Hawk and I are just friends."

"..."

By the time George came back to his senses, Gwen had already run upstairs.

George blinked his eyes and couldn't help but look at his wife, Helen, who was standing on the side and hadn't spoken all along.

"Friends? Do you believe that?"

"Whether I believe it or not is not important."

Helen, who had always been a virtuous wife and mother, smiled at Gwen's back as she went upstairs, and then said to George: "But I know, you can't keep your daughter."

George was dumbfounded.

And Gwen, who returned to her room and threw herself directly on the bed, thinking of Hawk, who had been missing for more than ten days, just when she had a feeling she couldn't describe, her phone suddenly rang.

Gwen lit it up casually and glanced at it.

The next second.

She sat up from the bed abruptly.

This message wasn't some spam text, but another remote login information sent by her phone account.

Gwen hurriedly clicked on the text message link.

This time the signal was no longer a rough range, but precise to a specific location.

Maryland, Cunningham Falls State Park, under a waterfall.

This was also the reason why Gwen appeared here.

Very quickly.

As the sound of water flow got closer, Gwen, who was already covered in sweat, felt her spirit become more and more bright, and even quickened her pace.

And under the waterfall.

Hawk, after finishing the nine thousand nine hundred and ninety-ninth punch, withdrew his fist and threw the last punch, the phoenix phantom behind him was like substance.

The next second.

Hawk threw his ten thousandth punch, and the fire phoenix phantom behind him spread its wings and flew high!

"Chirp!"

"Flow backward for me!"

"Boom!"

The waterfall in front of him was no longer flying down three thousand feet, but a raging dragon raising its head, rolling back the heavenly river!

At this moment, time was like it had stopped.

But a clear voice passed through the stopped time and appeared in Hawk's ear.

Voice.

Clear.

Trembling.

"Hawk!!"
