Gerald Crawford:The Secretly Rich Man (Invisible or Poorest) Chapter 1300

There was no way in hell that Gerald was going to be able to dodge that attack. A split second later, Gerald found

himself flying backward as every inch of his body throbbed in immense pain! Soaring on, Gerald could taste

something sweet in his mouth before vomiting blood briefly after!

Eventually falling to the ground, Gerald ended up rolling several times before eventually coming to a stop. If he had

to describe what he was currently feeling, it almost seemed like all his internal organs had shifted from their initial

positions from that one punch.

Even so, this was no time for him to wallow in pain. Attempting to gather his inner strength, Gerald quickly realized

that he couldn’t do so due to how terribly he had been injured!

‘Is this truly my end? Will I be defeated here in Qerton City? Jade pendant, if you’re there, please lend me your

aid…!’

Though Gerald had hoped that the jade pendant would save his life since he was now in such critical condition—just

like the previous time it had activated—he found, to his dismay, that no matter how much he cried out to it, it

simply didn’t respond!

Soon enough, Hogan was right in front of him again, a frigid expression on his face. Easily lifting the injured Gerald

up, Hogan then said in a chilling voice, “So you attempted to kill me, huh? Then it’s only fair for me to torture you in

return before I bring you back to master and Lady Gunter!”

With that, he tossed Gerald again without warning! Finding himself flying backward once more, Gerald felt as his

now-limp body crashed into tree after tree, leaving a trail of tumbled tree trunks before him! By the time Gerald’s

body finally stopped—after breaking at least eight study-looking trees—he felt as though all his bones had already

turned to dust as he slowly lost consciousness from all the pain.

Hogan, however, was far from done.

To him, as long as Gerald could still breathe and he was successfully delivered to the King of Judgement Portal,

Hogan’s task would still be considered to be a success. As for why he was so keen on torturing Gerald, it was

because Gerald had attempted to kill him earlier. Due to that, Gerald was essentially his enemy now.

With that in mind, Hogan then began smashing his fists into Gerald’s stomach, ruining all his internal organs!

Following that, he also made sure to smash all four of Gerald’s limbs by stepping on them!

Gerald himself kept waking up due to the immense pain before falling unconscious again. It was truly a living hell

for him, and Gerald didn’t even have the means to fight back anymore.

Eventually, Hogan stepped on Gerald’s stomach, forcing the injured youth to vomit what little blood remained in his

body. Watching as Hogan lifted his hand, Gerald was conscious enough to realize that he was aiming his iron claws

right for his chest!

At the very last moment, Gerald managed to wiggle just enough for the iron claws to avoid his chest. However, they

still managed to pierce deep into Gerald’s left shoulder!

‘You f*cker…!’ Gerald thought to himself as surges of immense pain filled every inch of his body. Now completely

dazed, Gerald was in too much pain to remain conscious, but at the same time, the pain also kept him awake.

Smiling coldly as he watched Gerald’s lips turn dark, Hogan knew that the poison was taking effect.

At that moment, he suddenly began hearing ‘swooshing’ sounds. If Hogan had to describe it, it almost seemed as

though near-countless arrows had just been shot.

Straightening his body, Hogan then stopped torturing Gerald for a second before looking around while asking in a

wrath-filled voice, “…Who goes there?”

In response, however, the sound he had initially heard only seemed to get louder.

It was then when Hogan finally saw it. Eyes widened, Hogan watched a ray of light fell from the sky at extremely

high speeds… And it looked like it was heading straight for him! In a way, it almost seemed like a meteor that was

intent on landing on him.

From where he stood, Hogan could sense that the ray of light was capable of ripping apart even space, and that

fact alone was enough to cause panic to arise within him.

‘That… That thing’s dangerous!’ Hogan thought to himself as he immediately began taking a few steps backward,

not even bothering about Gerald anymore.

In fact, he was so terrified that he actually tripped and fell on his buttocks before quickly getting up again and

dashing away! When he turned back to check on the light, however, his eyes instantly widened to the point where it

almost felt like his eyeballs were going to pop out.

The ray of light was homing in on him! No matter where he ran, the light simply continued following him around! It

was almost as though the ray of light had eyes or something!

Hogan knew he couldn’t keep running forever, so he dragged his—now-heavy—body to a large tree, hoping that by

taking cover, the ray of light would somehow miss him.

Alas, that did little to help him as the ray of light blasted right through the tree and right into his back! Howling in

pain, Hogan felt almost disgusted by how badly he wanted to leave this place as he was sent flying dozens of feet

away!

His entire body now as limp as a broken kite, he ended up tumbling onto the ground, but that wasn’t the end of his

pain yet. Hogan now realized that white smoke had been rising from his body from the moment the light had hit

him! Screaming in pain as he covered his chest, he noticed as black blood began oozing profusely out of his chest!

Even in so much pain, he knew that he couldn’t afford to linger around any longer. With that in mind, he forced

himself up before fleeing the area in the dark of night.

As for Gerald, well, he had watched all this happen though from an extremely blurry perspective. Trickles of blood

dripping from his open and foaming mouth, Gerald felt as the pain finally soothed enough for him to faint in peace.

Before his eyes shut, however, he watched as a middle-aged man—donning black clothes—quickly walked over to

him…
