The Secretly Rich Man

Gerald Crawford:The Secretly Rich Man Novel (Invisible or Poorest) Chapter 1081

Gerald had already memorized the map.

Therefore, it would not be difficult for Gerald to find the eternal coffin.

Gerald had a faint intuition in his heart that there might be a bigger secret hidden with the eternal coffin.

This world was not as simple as he thought it was.

Gerald felt that everything seemed to be even stranger especially after he had seen those murals.

How could he describe it?

It seemed as though two hands seemed to be secretly manipulating everything in the dark.

It was already very dangerous in the desert, and it would be even more dangerous as he got to the outlands of the desert.

Of course, Gerald, who was already a semi-master, did not take some of the beasts that he had encountered so far to heart.

As it got closer to the evening, Gerald had already reached the deepest part of the outlands.

He reached a place called Ullerwood.

It was not yellow sand everywhere now, but instead, it was filled with black sand.

Moreover, the wind was very strong here, and it seemed as though a gust of wind could break a human skeleton apart.

‘This is strange. Based on the mark on the map, the location of the eternal coffin should be at this spot, but this is just a piece of barren land!’

Gerald could not help but feel surprised.

‘The map could not possibly be wrong!’

Gerald endured the strong wind as he continued looking around.

Fortunately, Gerald found a deep and terrifying hole beside the mountain valley.

As expected, it should be here!

Gerald recalled the location of the map, and he could not help but feel a little pleased.

At this time, Gerald was about to go in and take a look.

Suddenly, a voice rang from above the mountain valley, startling Gerald.

“Young boy, I am truly very curious to find out why Daryl Crawford wants you to risk your life just to find this ancient tomb. What is so mysterious about it that the entire Crawford family is so interested in it? Could it be that there is some sort of treasure inside? Is that the reason why Daryl Crawford is working so hard for it?”

“Christopher Moldell!”

Who else could the old man above the mountain valley be if it was none other than Christopher Moldell?!

At this moment, Christopher jumped down from the top of the mountain valley, and he stood in front of Gerald with a joking smile on his face.

However, at this time, Christopher looked a little more haggard compared to the outstanding sage-like behavior that he had before. There were also bruises on his face.

“I have always felt very curious about the reason why your grandfather wanted to send you all the way to the North Desert. Luckily, I followed you here secretly. If it weren’t for this map, I wouldn’t have been able to arrive here one step ahead of you. However, there is some incomplete content on this map. What is it? Is it the secret of this ancient tomb?” Christopher asked as he frowned.

“You… what did you do to Giya and everyone else?!”

Gerald was so angry that his eyes flashed red in an instant.

This old fox had suffered a backlash the other day, and Gerald had taken advantage of that opportunity to slip away.

At first, Gerald had thought that the old fox had not caught up to him yet. That was the reason why Gerald had been wearing a mask in front of everyone else all the time—because he did not want to reveal his identity.

Unexpectedly, the old fox had already caught up to him.

Moreover, Gerald could have caused harm to Giya by handing the map over to her.

A murderous intent instantly stemmed up from within Gerald.

“Hahaha! Don’t worry, young boy. I did not do anything to them. Although I would usually use all kinds of means possible to get what I want, I do not need to use my strength against a few ordinary people. They are simply asleep at this time, and they will naturally wake up after sleeping for a day and night!” Christopher said as he laughed.

“The reason why I did not kill them is because I am giving you face. So, you’d better tell me the secrets in this ancient tomb before you die now! That way, I will not hurt any of your acquaintances, then. Otherwise, you can already guess how their fate will turn out to be!” Christopher said.

“You are so despicable even though you are a great master!”

“There is no other way. Since there is something in this world that I do not know of, but Daryl Crawford actually attached such great importance to, I will have to find out what it is so that I can get it! Okay, Gerald, that is all that I am going to say to you. So, why don’t you tell me whether you are going to speak up or not?”

At this time, the expression on Christopher’s face suddenly turned cold.

Gerald sneered. “The more you want to find out about it, all the more I will not reveal the truth to you, then. Besides, I would not feel any sadness if you were to kill anyone else after I die. So, are you honestly trying to threaten me with that?”

Gerald Crawford:The Secretly Rich Man Novel (Invisible or Poorest) Chapter 1082

“You brat! You are indeed very witty and eloquent, but let’s see how long you can carry on like that! I am going to kill you now!”

Christopher’s eyelids twitched slightly before he rushed forward to attack Gerald.

Gerald wanted to defend himself and avoid Christopher’s attack, but he was no match for Christopher at all.

Gerald was hit directly by Christopher’s punch, and he vomited blood in an instant.

“You will not be able to avoid my attacks! Okay, I will give you one last chance. I will spare your life if you tell me the truth now!” Christopher said coldly.

“Hahaha! Mr. Moldell, did you honestly think that I am a three-year-old kid you can trick so easily?” Gerald said as he wiped the blood off from the corner of his mouth.

“I think that you are really courting your death!”

Christopher was furious, and he lifted his palm as he struck a move, and Gerald’s entire body was lifted into the air.

After pulling Gerald’s body directly toward himself, Christopher struck him once again.

This time, there was white smoke coming out of Gerald’s back after he got hit, and he was instantly thrown about ten meters away.

Gerald was bleeding internally, and he spurted out a lot of blood.

“Are you going to say it… or are you not?” Christopher asked as he ground his teeth angrily.

“I am not going to say anything. I want you to feel impatient and anxious all the time!”

Gerald replied and smiled mockingly as he wiped the blood off his mouth. He could barely support his own body as he stood up.

“Do you honestly think that I will not kill you? I can kill you first before going to Daryl Crawford directly to ask him about it! You can die now!”

Christopher was further enraged and tried to pull Gerald toward himself using his left palm again.

However, this time, Gerald suddenly raised his eyes as he tried to get out of the suction force from Christopher’s wrist.

At the same time, he also drew out the Lightbane from his waist, and he prepared to use the water dripping skill that he had learned from the Dawnbreaker.

Why was it called the water dripping skill? This was because Gerald had come to an understanding and enlightenment that the water dripping skill matched the blade from the Lightbane perfectly. He could use offense as a defense, and the aura blade was getting higher and higher every layer, just like water dripping through rocks.

Therefore, this was called the water dripping skill.

At this moment, Gerald’s figure was very swift and violent as he counterattacked with unrestrained sword moves, piling up one after the other.

Christopher could only get busy avoiding the penetrating power of the Dawnbreaker right now.

However, when he turned around, the sword was already striking him.

Christopher panicked as he responded to the attack.

Yet, it seemed as though the short blade was alive, and it focused on attacking all of Christopher’s flaws instead.

Christopher’s eyes opened wider and wider in utter disbelief.

At this moment, he could not respond in time, and he got hit in the chest by the Lightbane.

He rolled over as he fell to the ground, and a bloodstain quickly spread on the ground.

“Mysterious mirror!”

Christopher was shocked, and as he shook his wrist slightly, the mysterious mirror quickly appeared in his hand.

As for Gerald, he turned around and went past Christopher as he ran directly into the cave.

This was because Gerald knew very well that the only reason why he had managed to strike Christopher earlier was simply because he had caught him by surprise. If he wanted to confront Christopher directly, there would simply be a very big gap between the both of them.

Gerald’s only glimmer of hope was to run into the cave.

This was Gerald’s plan when he had been enduring those two initial attacks.

Every movement had gone according to plan, and everything had happened all at once.

When Christopher finally got up from the ground with his eyes wide open, Gerald had already escaped into the cave.

Christopher muttered to himself in disbelief as he stared at Gerald’s back, “He truly has a special physique. He is surprisingly strong! I nearly lost to this young boy!”

At this time, Christopher suddenly raised his head with a spiteful expression on his face, “I cannot allow him to stay alive! Otherwise, the Moldell family will not be able to escape a calamity in just five years! I absolutely cannot allow him to live!”

Gerald Crawford:The Secretly Rich Man Novel (Invisible or Poorest) Chapter 1083

As he thought about it, Christopher was about to chase after Gerald.

Halfway through, he suddenly stopped in his tracks again.

Christopher touched his cheek that had been scratched, and he had a terrifying expression on his face at this time.

“Young brat, let me give you a word of advice. It would be better for you to come out of the cave obediently now. Otherwise, after you go into this cave, even if your strength increases greatly, you can forget about coming out of this cave alive!” Christopher shouted out loud as he stood at the entrance of the cave.

Not long after that, a faint voice came from within the cave saying, “Old man! That would still be better than getting killed by you outside!”

Christopher frowned. “Little b*stard! Don’t blame me for not reminding you if you were to die inside!”

It would indeed be very dangerous and risky to step into the cave. He was already a great master, and it could be said that he was invincible in this world. However, Christopher could not help but feel a lingering fear when he thought about the huge beast he had encountered in the cave just now.

This was the exact reason why he had wanted to investigate the matter thoroughly first.

He wanted to understand clearly whether it would be worth risking his life for the thing that was hidden within the cave.

If it was not worth it, Christopher would not take that risk!

This was precisely the reason why Christopher had waited for Gerald to appear.

‘That stinky brat will not be able to go too far. When the time comes, he will either run out of the cave or get killed inside the cave anyway. I should not be risking my life just because of this young brat. It would be better for me to just wait for him outside the cave. Either way, it would still be very advantageous for me!’ Christopher thought to himself.

After thinking that, Christopher immediately sat down by the entrance of the cave as he listened to the movements inside the cave.

On the other hand, Gerald initially thought that the sly old fox, Christopher, simply wanted to scare him so that he would come out of the cave.

However, as Gerald walked further into the cave, he could smell a strong odor coming from within the cave.

Gerald instantly felt that something was not right.

At this time, he suddenly recalled that Christopher had looked a little haggard when he had first seen him earlier.

He had even had some minor injuries on his face.

Since the old man knew that this was an extraordinary ancient tomb, according to his temper and characteristics, there would be absolutely no reason why he would refuse to come in to take a look for himself.

‘Could it be that there was something inside the cave that hurt him, and that was the reason why he did not dare to enter the cave to continue chasing after me?’

Gerald thought to himself as he continued walking in.

It was a very short and flat corridor.

Gerald could finally see some light after walking for quite some time.

A tall stone cave appeared in front of him, and it was pitch dark inside the cave.

Moreover, there seemed to be another two big holes in the innermost part of the cave.

The two big holes were as tall as a man.

What surprised Gerald was the fact that it seemed to be a completely different area within the big holes as bright green lights were shining from within it.

It was also because of the shining bright green light from these two holes that Gerald could see some conditions within the holes.

There were carved samurai statues on both sides of the holes. It was very majestic and solemn, and there were dozens of them.

‘Could this be the heavenly soldiers that descended from the sky as mentioned in the murals?’

‘Their dressing looks just like the clothing worn by the heavenly soldiers in the murals.’

‘So, could it be that the mysterious heavenly soldier was actually buried in the eternal coffin inside?’

Gerald thought to himself.

When Gerald saw the candlesticks around him, Gerald walked over to the candlesticks before he lit the oil lamps, one by one.

It was finally bright inside the stone cave.

Gerald finally saw everything inside the cave clearly at this time.

There were many bones scattered on the ground. Based on the equipment that they had brought with them, it seemed as though they were tomb robbers.
