The Invisible Mogul novel Chapter 1399

Shortly after, even that image disappeared, and it was then when the Mackusion’s glow slowly retracted before eventually falling back into Gerald’s palm.

“…Miss Lockland, have you any idea what the Mackusion was trying to reveal based on what it showed us earlier? Could something terrible have befallen those who participated in the pledge of the holy water…?” asked Gerald rather anxiously.

“I have a feeling that seems to be the case… Regardless, not only did the Mackusion reveal that the journey of the participants of the pledge of the holy water was anything but smooth, it also displayed Liemis’s tomb as well as your family’s manor. From what I can assume, it’s predicting that the two places aren’t at peace and something is very likely going to happen soon!” replied Zyla.

“…What? Then there’s no time to waste! Let’s head over to those places to investigate immediately” said the shocked Gerald immediately.

“Indeed! Speaking of which, now that you have the Mackusion on hand, do take proper care of it, Gerald. Remember, it’ll help you heal your Dehlere Foundation! With that in mind, please start relying on it whenever you come face to face with strong enemies, even if you think you’re able to go against them without the Mackusion’s help!” replied Zyla in concern.

“Don’t worry, I already understand that, Zyla. Whatever the case is, the important thing now is for us to head to Liemis’s tomb as well as the Crawford Manor. Aside from that, I also wish to head to where the pledge of the holy water is being held to look for my grandpa. Though I tried as best as I could to locate him on the screen earlier, I wasn’t able to find his corpse at all! That means he could still be alive!” said Gerald with a slight frown.

Nodding in response, Zyla then replied, “Indeed. Let’s head off then!”

Though there was no time to linger there for long, Gerald was well aware that there were still a few divine artifacts in there that he had yet to properly investigate. With that in mind, he was prepared to seal the miracle with a formation—once they got out—so that he could have a better look at those artifacts in the future.

Nearing the tomb’s entrance, Gerald saw that night had fallen outside. Just as they were about to step out, however, Gerald suddenly paused before saying, “Speaking of which… Those from the Xanthos family had placed an extremely strong poison right outside the cave while all of you were inside… While I’ve used a formation to isolate it, you probably won’t be able to resist such potent poison…”

Following that, he gently tapped Rosie’s, Jasmine’s, and Monica’s shoulders, effectively sealing their acupuncture points.

With that done, he then safely led them out of the cave.

As was expected, those from the Xanthos family had been lying in wait for them not too far from the mouth of the cave. There were over a hundred of them, and all of them were armed with guns.
