Chapter 1158

Gerald Crawford:The Secretly Rich Man Novel (Invisible or Poorest) Chapter 1158 The entire palace was now shaking vigorously, and it felt as though the heavens were about to cometumbling down while the earth seemed ready to rend open!

As all this happened, the crystal coffin slowly began descending, supported by Gerald in one of hishands.

While Gerald had anticipated for at least this much to happen… He hadn’t expected the life gate to notopen! Instead, it simply seemed to be shaking violently!

Amidst the chaos, even the iron chains that were wrapped around the giant black coffin beganquivering in place…

It was at that moment when something truly peculiar happened.

Both of them saw the iron chains—tying the black coffin shut—starting to break apart. At the sametime, the crystal coffin almost appeared like it wanted to fly out of this place! As if all that wasn’tenough, Dead Annies suddenly began growing rapidly on all the surrounding walls!

“It… It’s the Dead Annies again!” shouted Chester, now extremely frightened.

It didn’t take long for the flowers to fill the entire place, and it was around then when a lot of pollenbegan emerging.

As a result, the dizziness instantly returned.

Before both of them could even think about how to react next, one of the palace’s walls came crashingopen, sending seawater rushing rapidly into the structure!

Despite his entire body already trembling in great pain, Gerald still grabbed onto the eternal coffin astightly as he could.

Moments later, the stone pillars within the palace began collapsing, sending chunks of the brokenpillars all over the place!

By then, Gerald’s legs had already given in—due to the effects of the Dead Annies—and he was nowkneeling as he watched as Chester got hit by one of the pillar chunks.

“S-sir!” shouted the injured Chester as he began crawling over to support Gerald.

However, a massive gush of seawater prevented him from even getting close!

As seawater filled the entire palace, Gerald found himself slowly blacking out. The Dead Annies hadalready taken their toll on him, and he could no longer endure all the pain.

Seconds before he went completely unconscious, the large black coffin caught his eye again. By thispoint, all its chains had already been broken and the coffin’s lid had now slid open. Following that, ablack and dense light shot out of it…!

Meanwhile, it was late night above sea and the Crawford family fleet was still waiting for Gerald toreturn.

While the ocean had been relatively calm before, the ships instantly began bobbing up and down ratherdangerously as the ocean’s waves went wild and thunder and lightning began crashing and striking outof nowhere!

With the addition of sudden strong gales that hadn’t been present just seconds ago, all the ships weretruly in danger of getting overturned! It was almost as though a tsunami was imminent…

“How’s the situation? Is Mr. Crawford still down there? All this seems to be happening due to themovement of secret currents under the sea! Can anyone tell what’s going on down there?!” shoutedseveral of the Crawford family’s bodyguards anxiously.

“All the other ships have lost signal on him! The radars are all being disrupted as well!” shouted one ofthe men operating the ship.

The moment his sentence ended, a black light shot out of the ocean, towering into the sky!

“…What the hell is that…?”

All the bodyguards standing on deck found themselves staring wide-eyed as the black light flew highinto the sky… before beginning to fall in a certain direction like some kind of meteor!

“…That… Couldn’t have just happened, right…?” asked one of the guards, completely flabbergasted.

“We all saw it! It wasn’t just your imagination!”

“Hold on. Everyone, quick! There’s a signal again! We’re connected with Mr. Crawford again!” shoutedanother one of the guards excitedly.novelbin

As the ocean gale grew more and more powerful, the unconscious Gerald simply floated in the sea withthe eternal coffin wrapped tightly in his arms.

While his mind had long gone blank—due to the overwhelming pain—and he was no longer in controlof his body, his wish to cling onto the eternal coffin persevered above all else…

The next time his eyes reopened, Gerald found that he was lying on a bed. Unsure of how long he hadeven passed out, he thought to himself, ‘…I… I actually survived…?’

“…G-Gerald…? You… You’re finally awake!” shouted a voice from right beside him.

Turning to look to his side, Gerald saw that Jasmine was the one who had cried out. It appeared thatshe had been waiting by his side this entire time, and the fact that he was now finally awake was suchgreat news to her that she couldn’t hold her tears back.

Not long after, Lord Fenderson, Joshua, and several other top-notch bodyguards rushed in as wellwhile shouting, “You’re finally awake, Mr. Crawford!”

Looking at them, Gerald then asked, “…How… long have I been unconscious…?”

“You’ve been unconscious for about a month and a half now!” replied one of the worried bodyguards.

“…What? A month and a half?! Actually, hold on, where’s the eternal coffin?” exclaimed Gerald, hiseyes widened in shock.

Hearing his question, the bodyguard then quickly said, “…Well, we had been planning to tell you aboutthis as soon as you woke up… You see, while it’s true that you managed to bring it back… Actually, it’seasier to explain if you go take a look at the situation yourself…”
