Gerald Crawford:The Secretly Rich Man (Invisible or Poorest) Chapter 1071
Surprised, everyone immediately began gathering around the screaming girls as they asked, “What happened?!”
However, the answer to that question was immediately made clear the moment they looked in the direction the
screaming girls were staring wide-eyed at.
Lying on the dune were two dead bodies! Under the moonlight, the corpses looked like they had been sucked dry,
with their skin clinging on tightly to their torsos after having all their internal fluids sucked out.
“Those… Those are Minnie and Juan!” cried out someone from within the search party who recognized the clothes
the corpses were wearing.
“How could this have happened…? It’s only been half an hour!” said Professor Yale.
Though the professor had a lot of experience in his field, he couldn’t help but feel that the current turn of events
was absolutely incredulous. The sight of the two dead bodies alone made his hair stand on end!
“…It’s… It’s the Capra Nanny… She’s here!” stuttered the Master of the Desert in horror before gulping.
Hearing that, everyone grew even more frightened, prompting them to huddle closely together.

Meanwhile, the Master of the Desert—who was now already kneeling—began praying, “We’re just passing by, Capra
Nanny! We have no other intentions, please forgive us!”
Hearing that, everyone else immediately began mimicking his actions, repeating the exact same words that the
bearded man used.
Gerald, however, simply walked over to the two corpses and after taking a look, he said, “What Capra Nanny? This
was done by a mere beast!”
“…W-what did you say? Nonsense! You’re just a young lad who doesn’t know any better! You’d best watch your
tongue or you’re going to be the first person Capra Nanny kills!” reprimanded the Master of the Desert in return,
clearly feeling that Gerald’s words were too careless.
“Watch your tongue or you’re going to be the first person Capra Nanny kills~!”
As soon as the Master of the Desert said that, a faint voice—that almost blended seamlessly with the wind and sand
—was heard
Everyone listened in horror as the sinister-sounding, childlike voice was repeated. The fact that all this was
happening under the night sky only served to make the atmosphere feel even more surreal.
At that moment, Professor Yale and the others held on to their breaths as they stared wide-eyed behind Gerald.
“B-big brother! Careful! Something’s behind you!” warned both Giya and Meredith as they simultaneously stood up,
immense fear in their voices.
Gerald already had a good hunch of what that ‘something’ was. He had already bumped into her earlier, and after
turning around to glare at the monster, his guess turned out to be right.
The monster itself had green eyes and messy hair, and it was currently crawling out from a dune. Standing upright,
she looked similar to a human at first glance. Closer inspection, however, anyone would definitely know that she
was anything but.
Still repeating the same line from before, Capra Nanny began slowly crawling toward Gerald with her long tongue—
which was filled with rows of barbs on it and was occasionally dragged across the sand—hanging out.
“C-Capra Nanny!” stuttered the Master of the Desert in fright as he instantly began kowtowing before her.
“I’ve been looking for you for an entire night and day, you know? So you’ve finally decided to show yourself again!”
shouted Gerald, coldly.

long after, he discovered the existence of Capra Nanny.
Under normal circumstances, Gerald would’ve just walked past it so that he could be on his way. However, these
weren’t normal circumstances. After all, Giya and her group were still behind him.
Gerald had feared for Giya’s safety since for one, the beast seemed to prefer attacking tourists. Secondly, he could
also tell that the beast wasn’t something ordinary people could deal with easily. With that in mind, he could only
turn back around to look for Giya.
When the beast finally realized who Gerald was, rage filled its green eyes as green saliva dripped from her gaping
mouth.
“Leave! All of you! I’ll deal with her!” ordered Gerald as he turned around to look at Professor Yale and the others.
While Professor Yale and the others instantly nodded, Wynn himself took out a pistol from his pocket before saying,
“It’s just a beast, isn’t it? What are all of you so afraid of? Worry not, Giya! I’ll protect you! Watch me kill her!”
Being the egoist that he was, Wynn was definitely not letting his rival steal his spotlight. With that, he took aim at
the monster and pulled the trigger!
Though the bullet hit its mark, Capra Nanny was barely fazed by the attack.
