Chapter 632 Acting
Bernard was clearly giving it his all, his eyes filled with murderous intent. Flames burned on his fists, a result of him exerting his full power, with the friction igniting the air!
This indicated that his speed and strength had reached their peak. The power of this punch was even stronger than that of a mortar.
The tremendous force caused the entire cave to shake, and the shockwave swept in all directions, like a tsunami.
Wang Chao gritted his teeth and managed to support his body, dodging to the side.
Boom!
Bernard descended like a meteor, and his powerful punch left a crater in the ground, about a meter deep and ten meters wide.
The force of this punch was much stronger than that of a mortar shell.
The immense power made the entire cave tremble, and the shockwave swept in all directions.
Although Wang Chao avoided the hit, he was still like a lone boat in a raging sea, lifted off the ground by the shockwave.
"Dodged again? Let's see how many times you can dodge!" Bernard's eyes turned colder.
He rushed over like a wild beast and attacked Wang Chao again. His speed was lightning-fast as he arrived in front of Wang Chao.
Following that, his fist struck again.
This time, Wang Chao seemed unable to dodge any longer. He was hit hard, crashing into the mountain wall, causing it to crack.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtA lot of dust and debris fell on Wang Chao, making him look disheveled and miserable.
"Wang Chao, you're as good as dead!" Bernard saw Wang Chao's miserable appearance and his eyes filled with even more satisfaction and chilling killing intent.
He rushed over like a wild beast once again and struck Wang Chao's chest with a fierce punch.
Then, he continued to rain down punches on Wang Chao like a storm, treating him as a sandbag.
Each punch was stronger and fiercer than the previous one, forming waves of attacks.
Wang Chao was like a sandbag, taking the relentless beating, unable to fight back.
In the end, Bernard landed a punch that made Wang Chao spit out blood. His body was impaled through the mountain wall and flew into a room.
Bernard stopped at this point and looked at Wang Chao coldly through the hole in the wall. "I thought you were such a formidable expert, but I didn't expect you to be so weak."
Having said that, he looked at his own body with a hint of disgust.
At this moment, Wang Chao struggled to get up, wiping the blood from the corner of his mouth, and weakly asked, "You... you're not Bernard. Then, who are you?"
Bernard gave a cold smile and said, "I wasn't planning on telling you, but seeing that you are on the brink of death, I'll tell you the truth."
"First, I have no idea what you mean by 'taking over'."
"Second, my name is not Bernard; my real name is Firmin!"
"Firmin?" Wang Chao looked puzzled.
Firmin's eyes were cold as he said in a deep voice, "That's right, I'm a resident from Iceland, and my name is Firmin. I followed a great master since I was young and learned many extraordinary skills from him."
"My master was incredibly powerful and taught me a lot. Under his careful guidance, I spent more than thirty years cultivating my current level of strength."
"A Five-Star Great King-level expert!"
"With my cultivation level, I am highly regarded in any country. I can have anything I want—power, wealth, you name it."
"When I was in White Eagle Country, I even had relationships with many women. However, walking down the wrong path eventually leads to encounters with ghosts. I unintentionally got involved with the daughter of a high-ranking executive, who came from a prestigious family. As a result, I faced retaliation and attacks from that family."
"The high-ranking executive's family sent out a powerful expert, and I was no match for him. I could only escape and hide in the Bat Cave, living in fear, afraid of being found and killed by that family."
"But luckily, I happened to encounter Bernard falling into the cave."
"It was simply a gift from heaven!"
"I was worried about not having a place to hide from my enemies, and then Bernard fell into the cave by himself. I killed him and used a magical technique to change my appearance and body to look like Bernard. That's how I became Bernard!"
As he spoke, Firmin looked at his own massive arm muscles, and his eyes showed disgust. He had always been tall and had faced many scornful and different looks, which made him lack confidence and hate his height even more.
During the time he impersonated Bernard, it was the happiest period of his life. Bernard's 1.8-meter-tall body was the golden ratio physique that he admired the most. Moreover, Bernard came from a prestigious family, possessing power and background beyond imagination. During this time, he had managed to impersonate Bernard very convincingly and comfortably.
Now, to kill Wang Chao, he had to reveal his true identity. Only by exposing his true body could he fully unleash his strength. He stared at Wang Chao and continued, "You are also quite remarkable with your powerful hypnosis. I almost fell for it."
"However, my master is very skilled in hypnosis. He has trained me in this area since I was young and taught me how to counteract the hypnosis of skilled practitioners."
"Therefore, no matter how powerful your hypnosis is, I am immune to it!"
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm"Is that so?" Wang Chao suddenly realized.
He had originally thought it would be some kind of soul possession, which deceived him. He didn't expect it to be someone else's disguise. Firmin's strength and acting skills were too formidable, even fooling him.
Firmin reached out and drew a steel knife into his hand. He said in a deliberate manner, "Wang Chao, you fought me for so long before being defeated. You're incredibly strong, but someone about to die does not need to know so much."
Having uttered that, he stepped forward, walking toward Wang Chao, his eyes sharp as knives, and his expression ferocious.
At this moment, he had truly made up his mind to kill Wang Chao.
As long as he got rid of Wang Chao, everything would return to normal.
But at this moment, Wang Chao suddenly stood up, wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth, and his eyes became bright and spirited. His aura became even more formidable than before.
Where was the sign of grave injury?
He seemed completely unharmed!
Firmin paused his steps, his eyes filled with astonishment. "You!"
He had repeatedly struck Wang Chao with tremendous force, enough to crush steel, yet Wang Chao now appeared unscathed. How was this possible?
Wang Chao patted the dust off himself and said, "It's a bit difficult to get the truth from your mouth, so let's play along and act."
He had not fully understood Firmin's strength earlier and even thought that Firmin had not used his full power, leading him to believe that there might be a mysterious expert possessing Bernard's body, making it hard for him to fathom.
Now that Firmin had revealed everything, there was no need for him to keep pretending.
With a pause, his gaze suddenly turned cold as he stared at Firmin and uttered in a deliberate manner, "Now that I know your true identity, that's even better."
"Now, you can go to hell!"
