Gerald Crawford:The Secretly Rich Man (Invisible or Poorest) Chapter 1176
Upon successfully escaping Montholm Island, Gerald immediately took the sea path toward Langvern Mountain in
Halimark City.
However, it wasn’t long after before he realized that someone had locked onto his aura! No matter how much he
attempted to get rid of the person who was tracking him down, he simply failed to do so!
‘Is it truly God’s will that I won’t ever be able to find Mila and Second uncle…?’ Gerald thought to himself rather
anxiously.
What sort of immense supernatural power did Queena even possess…? Quite honestly, she was probably the only
other true top master whom Gerald had ever met aside from Finnley. How absolutely terrifying!
Despite knowing how stacked the odds were against him, Gerald persevered on, willingly exhausting what little
strength he had left as long as there still existed a glimmer of hope.
It was around three in the morning when Gerald finally arrived at the foot of Langvern Mountain.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtBy then, the person who had locked onto his aura was also feeling much closer than she was before. Knowing that
she could very well catch up to him soon if he continued loitering around any longer, Gerald immediately began
dashing up the mountain.
However, the second he arrived at Langvern Church, he was left completely astonished. The entire church was
empty!
Due to how dusty the area was, Gerald felt that it was safe to assume that everyone who used to partake in the
activities here had long evacuated the building. Not wanting to give up without trying, Gerald tried to locate any
traces of auras within the church. To his dismay, he couldn’t detect a single soul inside aside from his.
“…How could this be…!” said Gerald to himself, looking slightly lost and desolate as he stood in the room in the
back that Ghost had once led him to.
His current situation was similar to a setting where he had just managed to start a fire after much difficulty.
However, before he could even begin warming himself, someone had doused a basin of cold water all over it.
In other words, after going through so much, this was a visualization of how disheartened Gerald was now feeling.
What still surprised Gerald most, however, was finding out that Ghost and the others had left so suddenly. Why had
they left in the first place…?
At that moment, a child-like voice could suddenly be heard calling out, “Gerald… Gerald…”
Getting on high alert almost immediately, Gerald realized that the voice calling his name was coming from the living
room. However, even after searching the place with his mind, he couldn’t detect any forms of life anywhere…
“Gerald… Gerald…” repeated the soft, child-like voice again as the squeaking of what sounded like wheels could be
heard.
To Gerald’s astonishment, he watched as a loose plank suddenly began shifting… Seconds later, a small robot of
sorts—that seemed to have been made with a single bamboo stalk—slowly made its way toward him.
Though it was seemingly made completely out of bamboo, the robot itself had a unique appearance that resembled
a very lifelike young girl—somewhere around the age of five—who had two ‘braids’.
Its eyes glowing green, it looked at Gerald before calling out, “Gerald…”
“…Yes?”
“So you’re finally here! I’ve been waiting for you for so long that I’m already close to running out of batteries!”
replied the little robot.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm“What? You were waiting for me? Could you actually have consciousness?” asked Gerald in surprise.
“Of course I do! Master Ghost was the one who had left me here to wait for you, you know? I’m his most special
and mysterious piece of work! In fact, I’m even more intelligent compared to most computers! You can call me
Zenny!”
“…A pleasure to meet you, Zenny. From what you’ve said, I’m assuming that Master Ghost had already predicted
that I’d come here… Did he have a message for me?” asked Gerald.
“Indeed! You see, during your last visit, Master Ghost had requested to predict your fate. However, since you
refused his offer, Master Ghost couldn’t exactly force the reading on you. As a result, once you left, Master Ghost
secretly read your fate by using the Nine Dragons Divination Technique through the use of palm prints that you had
left behind. After getting to know everything that would happen, he realized that what was going to happen next
would most likely affect the lives of at least a hundred people within the church. As a result, Master Ghost and the
others had already left a long time ago. However, he left me behind so that I could pass on a few messages to you!
He really hopes that his words will help you get through your current crisis!” explained Zenny.
“How truly thoughtful of him… I admit now that I may have been a bit too self-righteous and arrogant back then…
Regardless, what did Master Ghost wish to tell me, Zenny?”
