Chapter 1398
The Secretly Rich Man
Gerald Crawford:The Secretly Rich Man Novel (Invisible or Poorest) Chapter 1398 As Gerald pondered on that statement for a while, he suddenly heard the other womenâwho had been standing silently at the side this entire timeâscream!
Peter himself was now looking immensely worried, and he immediately pointed at the screen before shouting, âGerald, look there!â
Turning to look at the screenâthat was still displaying Warhill IslandâGerald quickly realized that humans were now present. Of course, that wasnât the reason the girls were screaming.
The reason they were so terrified was because the people being displayed were nothing more than corpses who looked like they had died horrible deaths!
From what Gerald could estimate, there were about a hundred dead great mastersâwho had probably come from all over the place just to participate in the pledgeâat the catastrophic scene.
Looking at the sea of dead bodies, Geraldâs eyelids instantly began twitching rapidly as he thought, âGrandpaâ¦!â
He was right to be worried. After all, his grandfather had left for the pledge of the holy water quite recently.
As he scanned through the many corpsesâto see if his grandfather was one of themâGerald soon caught sight of Christopherâs dead body! From the looks of it, his chest seemed to have been broken by the force of a palm⦠The peculiar thing was, Gerald noticed that Christopherâs mirror was lying right next to his corpse!
Gerald distinctly remembered that he had placed his grandfather in charge of the divine artifact before they left for the pledge. With that in mind, how could it have returned to Christopherâs hands? The most shocking thing, however, was the fact that the artifact had been smashed to pieces!
âA-all of them are deadâ¦!â shouted Peter as he leaped over to where Gerald and Zyla were, an immensely shocked expression on his face.
As Gerald continued scanning through the screen to see if his grandfatherâs corpse was also present, the scene suddenly switched againâ¦
The screen was now displaying an area underground that Gerald was no stranger to. It was the place where the deity had been buried.
ââ¦What could the Mackusion be trying to tell meâ¦?â
Whatever the case was, there was an unsettling silence in the unchanging scene, prompting Gerald to ponder, âWhat on earth are you trying to tell meâ¦? Iâve already sealed this place, havenât Iâ¦?â
As Gerald continued wondering what all this meant, the screen soon switched to another display.
Before Gerald could even say a thing, he suddenly heard Peter shout, âThe Crawford Manor?!â
ââ¦Oh? You know where my house is, sirâ¦?â asked Gerald.
Hearing that, Peter simply grunted as he nodded. Following that, he turned to look at the screen again, his eyes squinted and seemingly deep in thought.
Gerald continued looking at the screen as well. In a way, the way the Mackusion was portraying his familyâs manor resembled the image of the ancient tomb from earlier. In other words, it was filled with an eerie silence and little to no changes could be detected within the Crawford familyâs spacious manor.
It wasnât long before the image switched yet again, this time displaying a vast and starry sky in the depths of spaceâ¦
Seemingly wandering aimlessly around, Gerald watched as the massive Sun League spaceship drifted into view⦠In a way, it almost felt like a ghost wandering around the universeâ¦
