Operation: Cobra Is Back novel Chapter 67

Seeing this, the mockery on Roy's face became more and more obvious.

"Grandpa, I told you that he's fooling us. If he was really capable, how could he have left after I said a few words? Obviously, he has a guilty conscience!"

Edward sighed and looked at his grandson, then shook his head, "Roy, you're wrong. He doesn’t have a guilty conscience. He's being arrogant and doesn't want to be misunderstood like this!"

"If he is really an ordinary person, how could he possibly know that I have injured my internal organs because I have practiced the martial art passed down in the Brown family?"

Roy was slightly stunned, "So he is not a liar?"

"Of course he is not. You have offended him. You are too reckless. I hope your sister can persuade him back."

Roy mumbled and was actually quite doubtful with Duncan's statement in his mind.

He was practicing the martial art passed down in the Brown family, which was indeed a bit incomplete and had caused his internal injuries.

However, he did not believe Duncan's words. How could the internal injury be so serious that would cause him to die?

Meanwhile, Gladys had caught up with Duncan and stopped him.

"Duncan, don't go yet. I apologize for my brother!"

Duncan paused, glanced at her, and smiled, "There's no need for that. Don;t mention it!"

Gladys didn't believe him and said helplessly, "Don't be so petty. My brother is straightforward and has always spoken without thinking. I'll buy you dinner and apologize, okay?"

"No really."

Duncan was helpless. These days, even no one believed him when he told the truth.

Seeing that there was no anger on his face, Gladys felt a little relieved, but at the same time a little worried, and asked, "Duncan, is what you just said true?"

"Of course it's true. And that's the best-case scenario! You’d better go back and persuade your grandfather to give up his cultivation."

Duncan said and did not really want to engage with the Brown family anymore.

It was because when Roy had questioned him just now, Mr. Brown had not stopped him. This showed that Edward himself, in fact, did not quite believe in what he said either.

Since he didn't even believe him, why would he waste his time doing this laborious and unpleasant thing?

"Is it really that serious? I've actually practiced the martial art, and I show no strange symptoms."

Gladys was still a little unconvinced by Duncan's words.

Duncan shrugged his shoulders and said, "If you don't believe me, then forget it!"

"No, I believe you. Is there anything you can do to make it right?"

Gladys was anxious and hurriedly tugged on Duncan's arm.

Duncan frowned slightly and said, "As I said, unless you stop practicing or perfect the martial art. Otherwise, there is no other way."

Stop practicing? Perfect the martial art?

Gladys laughed bitterly in her heart. Her grandfather had always been obsessed with martial arts, and the Brown family's huge foundation had been built on the martial art. There was no way her grandfather would stop.

As for perfecting the martial art, that would be even more impossible.

Because a martial art had to be created by a great master of the martial arts who had combined his life's work.

It took a lot of effort to create a martial art. How could it be perfect just like that?

Besides, who could perfect the martial art?

A master in the Diamond Class or a master in the Master Class?

Gladys hesitated for a moment and asked, "Is there a third option besides these?"

Seeing that she really looked anxious about her grandfather's condition, Duncan felt compassionate and, after some thought, took a wooden box out of his pocket and said, "There is an elixir. It will save your grandfather's life. Take it."

Handing her the box, Duncan didn't wait for Gladys to react, but got into the car and left.

Gladys had mixed feelings as she watched Duncan leave, and clutched the wooden box. Her instincts told her that the box would definitely save her grandfather's life for once!

...

Duncan had by now returned to the Mysterious Midnight Bar, but what he didn't expect was to attract a few unexpected guests.

"Mr. Longman!"

Leo greeted Duncan as he straightened his back in Flora's office.

Leo, who had been defeated by Duncan, did not feel any resentment towards Duncan, but became more and more respectful towards him!

Because he was a soldier. The soldier had always admired the strong. Duncan had completely conquered him in terms of strength!

"What are you doing here?"

Duncan enquired curiously and looked at the middle-aged man behind Leo.

The middle-aged man was dressed in civilian clothes, but he had an intimidating aura about him, and at a glance, he knew that he was not weak. Although he was standing at the back, Duncan knew from the respectful manner in which he was treated by the few people present that he was clearly the most senior person.

"Mr. Longman, I have heard a lot about you. I have met you today and found that you are really outstanding!"

The middle-aged man had already greeted Duncan and extended his calloused hand to him.

Duncan's heart fluttered and he smiled as he shook his hand.

The moment he shook his hand, Duncan felt a huge force pressing down on him. He laughed in his heart, "You want to compete with me in terms of hand strength?”

He could feel his great power. If he hadn't reached Spirit practice III, he might have been outmatched.

But now ...

Duncan's lips curled up and he secretly exerted himself.

"Huh?"

The middle-aged man noticed it, and his eyes lit up as he looked at Duncan.

He had heard about Duncan from Leo, which was why he had made a special trip over here to test Duncan's strength.

Just now he had only used 30% of his strength, but he didn't expect Duncan to really be able to compete with him. Seeing Duncan's relaxed look, he said in his heart, "Not bad.”

But he didn't show any mercy and doubled his strength!

A slight sound of clicking came from the palms of the two men.

"Sir ..."

Seeing that the middle-aged man's face turned from white to red and blue veins stood out on his temples, Leo couldn't help but shout out in worry.

Slap!

The middle-aged man had withdrawn his hand and placed it on his back. His hand trembled slightly, but his face was unchanged in the slightest as he laughed loudly.

"Young man, you have great strength!"

"You too."

Duncan shrugged his shoulders and withdrew his hand.

The middle-aged man was a little depressed and looked at Duncan with growing surprise.

He had just used almost all his strength. Even a steel plate could have been crushed to pieces by him!

Not only was Duncan not injured by this, but he also didn't even change his face, which let him know that Duncan's strength was definitely not below his!

Moreover, Duncan was only in his twenties and very young. If he was nurtured, he could be another strong man in the military district!

However, this was obviously not the time to talk about it.

"Mr. Longman, on behalf of the JN City Military District, I would like to ask you to do me a favor!"

"What is it?" Duncan raised an eyebrow.

Adolph Fox took a deep breath and said, "Protect the Kent Group's Executive President, Alyssa!"
