    Chapter 753


    Han’s eyes were frigid as he spoke.


    Within just one day and night, he had noticed the peculiarities of the wall.


    If possible, he wished to visit the site himself and investigate the secret of the wall.


    However, he had to stay vignt of Bernard at all times to prevent any harm from befalling Reign.


    So he asked Landon to investigate.


    “Don’t worry. I will find out what’s going on there,” Landon said in a deep voice.


    “Alright. I’ll leave it to you then. I’ll keep a close watch on Bernard, and if he initiates any action, I’ll


    respond immediately.” Han stated.


    “Be careful.


    “You too. Let me know if I can help.”


    “I will.”


    Han ended the call, polished off his hamburger, and resumed his surveince on Bernard.


    As long as he kept an eye on Bernard, he would definitely be able to save Reign.

    Moreover, if Bernard appeared to be normal, he could assume that Reign was temporarily out of


    danger.


    That was a stroke of good luck in the midst of misfortune!


    “You’re just putting on an act, aren’t you? Well, in that case, let’s see how long you can keep up the


    act,” Han murmured to himself.


    He fixed his gaze upon Bernard, and the longer he looked at him, the more inscrutable he appeared.


    Under the influence of Han’s soul control technique, Bernard was functioning perfectly. He was still


    able to go about his daily routine of working, resting, eating, and sleeping without any issues. That


    indicated his exceptional spiritual strength.


    Perhaps Bernard was just pretending to be hypnotized when he was hit by Han’s soul control. He


    wasn’t really hypnotized.


    Han thought, “It seems that his physical strength is, at best, that of a three–star General. However,


    his spiritual strength is so potent that even I am unable to subdue it.


    “He must be concealing his true strength. No doubt, he’s a peerless expert. It’s possible that he


    deliberately conceals his supposed three–star General cultivation level.”


    Han cast a frosty re at Bernard.


    At the same time, he couldn’t help but feel a hint of arousal.


    For the first time in years, he confronted an adversary that was impossible toprehend. He felt as


    though he had finally found his equal.


    He had not felt such a sense of danger for a long time!


    Engaging in a challenging battle with an adversary of equal or higher caliber would be beneficial. It


    would prevent his body from sumbing to rust./


    “Bernard, you look so normal. Did you notice that I was staring at you?” Han smiled.


    Bernard was a start man. He knew what he could and could not do.


    He would only act so normal if he knew that he was being targeted.


    As Han was musing over this, Bernard seemed to catch onto his thoughts. He opened the window


    and turned his gaze towards Han.


    Their eyes locked in a momentary gaze.


    Han’s body quaked violently. It was akin to the sensation of being fixated by a ferocious predator


    lurking in the shadows. Every hair on his body stood on end, and his skin was covered in goosebumps.


    How dangerous!


    Aprofound feeling of danger engulfed him, triggering his heart to race uncontrobly.


    “Impressive. It’s no surprise that he was able to deceive Rei. He’s quite cunning. Han murmured.


    This sense of danger could intimidate regr people.

    However, for a proficient expert like Han, the sensation of pert only fueled his excitement further


    Av a mercenary, he had once lived on the edge of death every day. Feeling a constant sense of perit


    was nothing out of the ordinary for him.


    Bernard appeared to have detested Han’s stare. He responded with a faint smile on his lips,


    subsequently shutting the window and returning to his affairs


    This is a provocation


    “Okay, in that case, we need to have a good conversation”


    Simrly. Han’s face contorted into a frigid sneer. He lit a cigarette before getting out of the car and


    walking toward Bernard’s castle with an icy stare.


    Knock Knock!


    Han arrived at the castle entrance and knocked on the door.


    Bang!


    The castle door abruptly swung open with a loud bang upon being knocked on.


    Han lit a cigarette and strode in with an impassive expression. He made his way directly to


    Bernard’s room.


    Upon his arrival, Bernard had already prepared a freshly brewed pot of coffee. He greeted Han with


    a smile, saying, “Mr. Jaber, I’ve been waiting for you.


    I have already made coffee. Please have a seat.”


    After that, he gestured for Han to take a seat on the sofa.


    Han took a seat on the couch that Bernard had gestured towards. He lifted the cup of coffee and


    inhaled its aroma, grinning in delight. It smells delicious.


    “I had no idea you were so enthusiastic about the culture of Longhard Kingdom. It seems that you know


    where to find the most excellent coffee beans.”


    “I’m d that you like it,” Bernard said.


    “If I’m not mistaken, you made coffee for Rei when she came to find you, didn’t you?” Han inquired.


    “Mr. Jaber, you are correct. I have a great fondness for the culture of Longhard Kingdom. Whenever I


    have visitors from the kingdom, I always make them coffee.”


    “So, you put Bewitching Fragrance in the coffee and knocked Rei out, right?”


    “Mr. Jaber, I am not sure I understand what you’re talking about.”


    “Do I have to be more straightforward?”


    Han’s lips curled into a cold smile as he said, “I know that you have added Bewitching Fragrance


    into the coffee. I can smell it, and you have used a considerable amount. The dosage is potent enough


    to put an elephant into a deep slumber.


    “But I’m very curious, how did you send her away after she fainted?”


    After hearing Han’s words, Bernard’s face darkened. “I still don’t understand what you’re talking


    about


    “Don’t you? Very well, let’s talk about the wall behind your office. I know there is a hidden passage and


    I suppose Rei was transferred from there, right?” Han stared at Bernard coldly.


    “Go on,” Bernard said with a grim expression.


    Han maintained aposed demeanor as he ced his coffee cup back on the table. “The wall


    isn’t made of gold, stone, or iron, but it’s tougher than every substance known to man.


    “Hence, this is novel material.


    “Half a century ago, a meteoritended in this area. While there was news of a resulting crater, there


    was no trace of the meteorite itself. This suggests that it was removed through highly secretive means.


    “You used it to construct that wall, didn’t you?


    “I reckon there’s a secret passage just outside that door of the meteorite. Perhaps, there’s even an


    elevator plunging straight down to the depths below.


    That’s how you took Rei away.


    “Mr. Dean, am I right?”


    Beard’s countenance grew even grimmer. He uttered in an icy tone, “Go on.”


    “Since you didn’t deny it, I must have been right.”
