Gerald Crawford:The Secretly Rich Man Novel (Invisible or Poorest) Chapter 936
“Hmm? A backpacker? Brat, if you know what’s good for you, leave this instance. If you don’t, I’ll only
be wasting a bullet on you!” said Leopold as he pointed a gun directly at the side of Gerald’s head.
In response, however, Gerald simply turned to look directly into Leopold’s eyes.
“The hell are you looking at, brat?” growled Leopold angrily.
“You know, though I’ve been wandering around for quite a while now, I must say that nobody’s actually
dared to point a gun directly at my forehead before!” replied Gerald with augh.
“A death wish? Be my guest!” roared Leopold as his finger moved to pull the trigger.
However, the next thing he knew, a ng of metal echoed throughout the cave.
It took Leopold a second to realize that the gun was no longer in his hand, and it was at that moment
when he knew he had f*cked up.
As cold sweat began trickling down Leopold’s forehead, everyone—including Whistler and his men—
was so stunned that they didn’t even dare to breathe.
After all, everyone had seen it happen. In that split second before the trigger was pulled, Gerald had
flicked a branch so precisely that it jammed the tip of Leopold’s gun!
As if that feat wasn’t amazing enough, thews of physics didn’t seem to apply to Gerald at all since
not only did the branch pierce through the gun, it actually embedded itself at least an inch into the
cave’s solid walls!
Leopold felt a faint trickle of blood flow down his cheek as he stared wide-eyed at his gun which was
now hanging loosely like an onion ring on a kebab stick.
By god! What kind of strength and speed even was that?!
If Gerald had only aimed the branch at his throat or chest, he would’ve been dead just like that!
“I-incredible!” stuttered Leopold as he gulped down hard.
“Since I’ll be staying the night here, please choose how you want this to go. You can either go outside
and fight me now, or leave us alone. What’s it going to be?” asked Gerald as he bit into his roasted
hare.
Narrowing his eyes in utter fear, Leopold immediately shouted, “We’ll withdraw!”
“Don Leopold?!”
“Withdraw I said!” roared Leopold as he waved his hand, signaling for his men to evacuate
immediately.
“There’s over a dozen of us here, Don Leopold! Why are we withdrawing?” asked one of his
subordinates immediately after stepping out of the cave.
“Hahaha! I’m assuming you haven’t heard of the case that befell Hansel’s men! Color me surprised
since the news has been circting heavily around the Heavenly City! Regardless, dozens of his men
were killed in a single night when all they were chasing after were three people!” replied Leopold.
“What? Dozens? And none of them made it out alive?”
“You heard me! And that isn’t even the most terrifying thing about the incident! Upon investigating, it
was found that all of them were killed with the same weapon before they could even pull the triggers to
their guns! And guess what, the weapon in question was a tree branch! Do you see where I’m going
with this? If dozens of armed men couldn’t deal with a single assant wielding a tree branch, what
makes you think our group will make it out alive if we don’t retreat?” exined Leopold, his forehead
still dripping with cold sweat.
Now understanding where Leopold wasing from, his subordinates immediately began hastening
their paces away from the area.

After all, Hansel was an extremely powerful big shot so his men were definitely no small fries. However,
to think that all of them were killed by a single person, and with only a single tree branch!
Judging from the strength, skill, and weapon of choice of the young man from earlier, all of them could
only wonder if he was the one who was responsible for killing off all of Hansel’s men.
Back inside the cave, Whistler stood up after some difficulty before saying, “I really didn’t know that
such a powerful and talented person could even exist on this! I go by Whistler Sankey! Thank
you for saving our lives, sir!” said Whistler, his voice filled with respect and gratitude.
Seeing that, his other men began doing the same as well.
“You’re all being way too polite. It was just a coincidence that I happened to save your lives. After all,
what happened earlier was merely self-defense,” replied Gerald as he shook his head.
“I see… Speaking of which, sir. You mentioned earlier that my wound shouldn’t be bandaged now. Why
was that?” asked Whistler.
Hearing that, Gerald looked at the wounded man.
He had honestly only saved them since he had seen how much those men valued their friendship. If
they were merely working as hired individuals who thought little about their brothers and only prioritized
taking down the enemy forces, Gerald wouldn’t even have bothered interfering with Leopold’s attack in
the first ce.
Shaking his head, Gerald then said, “…Lie down on your side. I’ll get that bullet out from you first
before we continue talking…”
