The Secretly or invisible Rich Man Chapter 2493

"You jest, Mr. Greendrake. I truly am just here for the Yinblood pellets," replied Gerald in a monotonous tone.

"I'm glad to hear. Well, putting that aside, let's set up the formation that we initially planned as quickly as possible once we're inside the tomb!"

Following that order, the group then began making their way toward the tomb.. and soon enough, they found themselves standing in the main chamber.

Honestly, the inside of the general's tomb felt almost otherworldly.

The tomb itself had been built on a large mountain that was at least a few hundred meters tall and had a depth of approximately a thousand meters. Spacious didn't even begin describing this massive place. Regardless, in the center of the ring-shaped chamber, was a huge coffin with seventy-two massive stone monuments surrounding it.

According to Master Greendrake, the mystical angelic artifacts could be found in one of the rooms behind the stone monuments Either way, Master Greendrake was quick to order in

a stern tone, "Alright, let's get to it. We need to set up the sealing formation while we still can!"

Hearing that, all the experienced cultivators quickly began setting up the formation flags, just as planned. And shortly after, the spell was ready to be cast.

After murmuring some angelic scripts, a humongous iron chain materialized and quickly began floating toward the coffin to have it bound.

To everyone's horror, the now bound coffin suddenly began shaking violently! Had the headless general sensed their presence?!

"Oh god..!" muttered Hauk as his eyes fully widened..

Barely a second after Hauk said that, the iron chain snapped, instantly causing the chain to dematerialize and the coffin's lid shot out toward his direction.

While Hauk was too shocked to dodge it in time, Gerald was thankfully more alert. Pinching his fingers together, Gerald launched a Skysplit attack toward the lid, instantly snapping it in two! In the end, the two halves grazed Hauk's cheeks before finally bolting off into the distance.

"T-thank you for that, Mr. Crawford..!" muttered Hauk as he nodded at the boy.

Gerald, however, had his eyes glued on the coffin for there was a pair of legs sticking out of it! To everyone's horror, an ironclad corpse then slowly began getting out of the coffin..! Though the large sword in its hand was scary, the fact that the corpse was headless made the situation all the more terrifying!

The headless general was now standing before them! The headless general reeked of a devilish aura, and now that it was awake, the surrounding temperature instantly plummeted.

His face now drenched in sweat, Master Greendrake managed to yell, "A-activate the angelic formation.!"

As a refresher, Master Greendrake and three others were disciples of Sanchez, and they were here hoping to snatch the dragon internal pellet within this tomb.

Regardless, while the rest immediately got to work, far too terrified to question his orders, Gerald couldn't help but find this chain of events rather odd.

Master Greendrake, for one, was the main culprit of this thought.

For one, though Master Greendrake had said that he didn't know the secrets of the seventy-two mounds, he seemed to have a rather good understanding of this place. That aside, according to Finnley, the headless general was a corpse that had turned into a devil.

Master Greendrake should know this much, yet in the end, he still led so many experts over and even got them to prepare angelic formations to deal with the headless general.

The problem was, there was no way in hell that those from the Domiensch Realm would ever be able to fight against a devil with only an angelic formation..

Gerald was sure that Master Greendrake understood this.

With that in mind, why was Master Greendrake even bothering to do such a futile effort in the first place?

It was at that moment when a voice could be heard within Gerald's head, saying, 'You've noticed that something's wrong as well, Mr. Crawford?'

As it turned out, Yusra was currently communicating with him in secret using the sound transmission technique.

Either way, Gerald simply replied, 'I'm guessing you understand the situation now, Miss Quarrington?"

"I do. In fact, I've long felt that something was off with Master Greendrake! With that said, do

be careful," said Yusra in response.
