The Invisible Mogul novel Chapter 1769

“Indeed. Countless people have attempted to locate the casket of the first vampire ancestor in order to obtain the vampiric pearl within it…” replied Old Flint with a nod.

“The vampiric pearl? You came here looking for that, right?” asked Gerald.

“It is. The vampiric pearl is a treasure of the vampires that’ll allow me to obtain a new body!” explained Old Flint.

“…Alright, stand there and help me push the lid off!” ordered Gerald.

“Sure thing, Gerald!” replied Ray as he did as he was told…
