Gerald Crawford:The Secretly Rich Man Novel (Invisible or Poorest) Chapter 1661

Now sitting by the riverside, Nori couldn’t help but ask, “…It’s strange that we haven’t come across any others even after walking around for so long, right…?”

“It truly is… It makes me wonder if we’re a little too far off from the others,” muttered Gerald—who was also finding the entire experience to be rather perplexing—in response.

The second his sentence ended, a blast of water suddenly shot out from the river… and the duo found themselves staring wide-eyed at the green dragon that had just leaped out of the water!

Now hovering in the air, the dragon glared at Nori and Gerald before releasing a mighty roar that resonated across the area!

Neither of them could have anticipated that such a creature was living in that river!

However, now wasn’t the time to ponder about that. After all, the green dragon suddenly began diving toward Gerald and Nori without warning!

“Watch yourself!” shouted Gerald as both he and Nori leaped to the side to avoid the attack!

While they were fortunate enough to dodge the attack, the fact that the area they had been sitting on had completely crumbled proved just how powerful the dragon was. Had they failed to avoid the attack, they would’ve surely died on the spot…

“Why the hell is there a dragon all of a sudden?! Aren’t we supposed to only be fighting against other people?!” asked the shocked Nori.

Based on the current turn of events, Gerald felt that the dragon was just another kind of magical challenge within this illusory space…

With that in mind, Gerald then shouted, “Go hide first, Nori! I’ll deal with the dragon!”

Following that, he summoned Jade Infused Blade and turned it into a sword. After tightening his stance, Gerald then began charging toward the dragon!

For a moment, the dragon almost appeared excited as it began diving toward Gerald as well!

“Slaying Surge of Turmoil!” roared Gerald as his aurablade flared red and flew toward the dragon, piercing right through it!

Roaring in pain, the dragon attempted to struggle for a while… until its eyes eventually turned grey and its massive body came crashing down into the river…

With the dragon now slaughtered, Gerald raised a brow when he saw that two shining items had appeared on the surface of the river.

Heading over to inspect them, the items stopped glowing once he got close enough. The first item was a jade charm whereas the second appeared to be a dragon egg…

After taking the two items for himself, Gerald then returned to Nori.

Now that things had calmed down, both of them began inspecting the two curious items. Neither of them had expected to be rewarded for slaying that dragon, and that only served to prove how magical this illusory space was…

A while later, Gerald slipped the jade charm into his pocket and carefully placed the dragon egg in his backpack.

Both of them had been unable to guess what those two items could be used for, so Gerald made a mental note to study them properly once the challenge was over. Whatever the case was, Gerald was sure that both of the items had to be extremely valuable, either in terms of usage or the fact that they could be hiding secrets within them…

Gerald’s train of thought was cut short when he suddenly heard Nori asking, “Come to think of it, what was that move you used earlier? It was super powerful!”

Nori could still remember how amazed she had felt when she saw Gerald’s red aurablade earlier…

“Well… Quite frankly, I have no idea either! It just sort of happened!” replied Gerald as he shrugged. He wasn’t bluffing when he said that.

After all, the one who had earlier launched the attack was Jade Infused Blade. With that in mind, it explained why Gerald wasn’t able to answer Nori’s question.

Regardless, both of them soon packed up and left the riverside…

It was about ten minutes later when both of them heard the clashes of a fierce battle…

Turning to look at Gerald, Nori then said, “It appears that there’s an intense fight happening up front! Let’s hurry over and have a look!”

Gerald agreed with Nori’s statement. After all, if the fighters were already battered, then there was definitely a chance that both of them could obtain something without any effort. What more, if the fighters were taking on something particularly dangerous, Gerald and Nori could always step in once they were taken out.

With that in mind, both of them then swiftly proceeded forward before masterfully concealing themselves behind a large rock.

Staring ahead at the small forest before them, both of them were greeted by the sight of several black-robed men attacking a youth in white clothes. Since the shoulder areas of his clothes were dyed red, it was only fair to assume that he had been injured there.

Despite his injuries and being severely outnumbered, the youth still fought vigilantly.

Even so, Gerald knew for a fact that the youth was fighting a losing battle. Then again, why were those four people so insistent on taking him down? There had to be a reason for their actions…

“Those four men are clearly bullying that poor youth, Gerald! Let’s step in and give him a hand!” grumbled Nori as she glared at the situation with resentful eyes.

Of course, Gerald saw no issue with that. It was a virtue to play the white knight, after all.

Meanwhile, in the forest itself, one of the black-robed men found himself sneering, “Come on Zelig! Stop playing so hard to get and give us your divine stone already!”

“Over my dead body!” scoffed Zelig in response, clearly still having quite a bit of fight left in him.

“If you insist!” roared the man in anger as he gestured for the other three to attack Zelig at the same time!

Seconds before Zelig was hit, a ray of golden light suddenly engulfed Zelig, shocking the other four men enough to momentarily retreat!

Following that, slight rustling could be heard, and the next thing everyone knew, two people were already standing guard before Zelig!

“How villainous for four of you to take on a single person!” scoffed Gerald as he stared at the four people with contemptuous eyes.

Hearing that, all four of them took turns exchanging glances with each other. They hadn’t expected to be interfered with halfway through what they were doing.

Shortly after, what seemed to be the leader of the group then glared at Gerald before warning, “Look, buddy. Beat it and leave us to our affairs. Otherwise, don’t blame me for killing you too!”

“Hah! I’d like to see you try!” retorted Gerald as his eyes suddenly began glinting murderously.

Before any of the black-robed men were even able to reply, Gerald tossed two secret technique talismans—that he had earlier hidden inside his sleeves—toward the men!

Appearing to burn up just inches away from the talismans’ targets, the duo that Gerald had attacked found themselves being engulfed in flames before they were even able to react! And just like that, the two black-robed men had been burned to death…

“…W-what…?!” shouted the two remaining men, momentarily unable to process what had just happened.

Quickly snapping out of it, the shocked leader of that group then shouted, “You… You’re a Talisman Master!”

To think that they would actually bump into a Talisman Master here of all places! With that in mind, the two men instantly attempted to bolt off.

‘Bold of you to even attempt escape!’ Gerald thought to himself. It was evident that they weren’t going to be leaving alive!

With that, Gerald then tossed another two secret technique talismans! Upon collision with the escaping duo’s bodies, were instantly ensnared by vines that appeared out of nowhere!

Fully bound, the duo flopped to the ground, utterly terrified as they watched Gerald slowly walk toward them.

Staring back at them, Gerald then casually said in a frigid tone, “Well then, thanks for giving us your divine stones!”

With that, Gerald summoned his sword before swiftly ending the remaining two men…

There was no mercy in his attack since Gerald was well aware that not being cruel to his enemies would mean that he was being cruel to himself…

Regardless, Gerald then took all four of their divine stones before slipping them into his pocket. Gerald now had five of them.

Either way, he then turned to look at Zelig before asking, “Are you alright?”

Shaking his head, Zelig then replied in a gratuitous voice, “I’m fine, thanks to you saving me! Also, where are my manners! My name is Zelig Lear!”

Upon hearing that, Nori found herself momentarily stunned.
