Gerald Crawford:The Secretly Rich Man Novel (Invisible or Poorest) Chapter 1403
“…Before that, why would you claim that he knows Gerald well…?” asked Zyla as she wiped her tears away while looking at the orb of green.
“It’s because he knew this place a little too well. You see, the formation Gerald used to seal the cave is the formation of the jade pendant, a formation that the God of Battle bestowed upon Gerald… While ordinary people would undoubtedly be unable to ever solve it, that old man had done so with great ease… What more, after slaughtering me, he used several methods to investigate the God of Battle’s corpse, mentioning Gerald’s name multiple times in the process… Aside from that, he also kept repeating the word ‘secret’, so I have a sneaking suspicion that he knows Gerald well!” explained the giant anaconda.
“Regardless, he didn’t seem to attain what he wanted, which prompted him to bring the eternal coffin away… Thankfully, it hadn’t dawned upon him at the time that I had rather strong soul power. It comes with living for over thousands of years. Whatever the case was, though my body perished, my soul remained, which is why I managed to see all this!” added the snake.
Hearing that, Gerald could only frown as he fell deep into thought.
Just as the snake had said, the formation had been embedded into his memories through the jade pendant… Seeing that knowledge of that wasn’t solving anything, he then thought about who knew about this place. Aside from Christopher, his grandfather, and the mysterious person who had led him here in the first place, there wasn’t anyone else that Gerald could think of. Speaking of that mysterious person, he had yet to appear before Gerald till this very day…
While he knew that something had happened for Christopher to die such a terrible death, Gerald wasn’t sure whether his grandfather—and the others who had headed to the pledge of the holy water with him—were still alive. Quite frankly, he didn’t even dare think about it. However, that did mean that his grandfather and Christopher were physically unable to be the culprits of this incident…
With that said, the mysterious person was the most likely person to have done all this…
‘…The mysterious person… It couldn’t be him, right…? It just wouldn’t make any sense! After all, he was the one who had led me to the eternal coffin… It must’ve been done out of goodwill, no…?’ Gerald thought to himself, remembering how the mysterious person had left him a clue when he had met a brick wall while investigating the Sun League back then.
With the help of his clue, Gerald was able to progress almost instantaneously that day…
