Invisible Rich (The Invisible Rich Man 2)

Chapter 1091

Concentrating all his energy into one strike, the sound of an explosion could be heard as Christopher launched himself towards Gerald with an attack aimed at the young man's chest!

A few seconds before his attack collided with Gerald, a loud buzzing sound was heard. Only when his fists arrived several inches before his target did Christopher realize a split second too late that all of his strength was suddenly drained by the mysterious force.

Knowing that he would not be able to stop the momentum of his punch in time, Christopher immediately tried to intensify his strength again.

However, when his fists finally collided with Gerald's chest, he quickly realized that the amount of force he unleashed was only proportional to the newborn's strength.

As if that wasn't confusing enough, Christopher found himself flying backwards, unable to regain control of his movements! It felt similar to falling from a steep mountain, and before the old man realized it, he had fallen hard to the ground!

“B-how... How is this possible?!” erang Christopher in great disbelief as he sat weakly on the ground, his eyes wide open.

The old man was now holding onto his numb left arm that felt almost broken.

How did this happen? It had only been ten days since they last fought!

Back then, Gerald could only get out alive with the help of a strange swordplay. Christopher is well aware that he can kill Gerald there and then as long as he's a little more alert, and he's sure Gerald understands that, too.

In short, the only reason Gerald won the battle was because of his sneak attack.

Knowing that Gerald has no other tricks, Christopher chooses to wait for Gerald to appear again. If everything went according to plan, he would kill the young man once that happened.

Afterwards, Christopher will tell Daryl that he has a grandchild before threatening to kill Gerald if Daryl refuses to tell him the secrets of the ancient tomb. Once he gets the information he needs, Christopher will then throw Gerald's corpse in front of Dylan!

The thought of how desperate Daryl would look at the moment brought endless excitement for Christopher as he was still waiting for Gerald.

It was a simple plan that—if everything went smoothly— would make Christopher get the secret of an ancient tomb for his own family.

"Oh? Do you still have plans to kill me?” gerald asked, smiling coldly.

“It.... This is not logical! How can you be this strong in such a short time? There is no way you can undergo that much training in just ten days!” christopher shouted in surprise.

“Consider me lucky!” answer Gerald.

"…What? Could it be the secret of an ancient tomb? Is it really capable of making others this strong? ” says Christopher, dumbfounded.

However, soon after, the old man's eyes became sharp as he took out a handful of sand before throwing it straight into Gerald's face!

Immediately standing, Christopher then jumped from where he was standing, aiming a kick at Gerald's chest!

As his feet hit his target, the sound of another explosion could be heard. This time, however, white smoke began to gush out from where Christopher's kick landed, completely enveloping the old man's body!

Before Christopher had time to question what had just happened, the white smoke surrounding him—no matter how— exploded, making his body fly in the opposite direction once again! The power itself was similar to standing in front of an exploding kettle, and it wasn't long before Christopher felt his back hit the rock wall of the mountain.

As the old man fell to the ground, a huge indentation was revealed where he was thrown. Now coughing up blood, Christopher raised his head to look at Gerald, feeling completely stunned.

“What... What exactly is the secret of the ancient tomb?! By God! How can knowledge of its secrets increase one's inner strength and training to such a frightening amount in just ten days ?! ”

Christopher had no doubt that he had managed to land the kick early. Thinking that Gerald's inner strength alone had managed to resist the impact, resulted in the old man being injured instead!

To achieve such a feat, Gerald's inner strength needs to surpass Christopher's. From the old man's personal experience just a moment ago, he estimated that Gerald's inner strength must be at least ten times stronger than hiss in order for him to be able to get this injured.

“If you had just left, I would have let go, you know? Still, since you killed people like flies and you even waited for me for so long here, I guess I really can't let you continue living!” gerald said, his cold gaze alone gave the old man a creepy spine.
