Heiress Unmasked: Shaking the World With Geomancy novel Chapter 1544

The familiar golden light pierced through the gray smoke, casting a radiant glow around Benjamin.

Shannon realized that just after Adeela had initiated the chant to activate The Rift with the combined voices of millions, Benjamin had sensed something amiss. He immediately grabbed Kai to rush over.

Coincidentally, Thalia was also on her way and hopped onto a wyrm to join them.

Rhodes happened to be nearby and, seeing Kai flying overhead, he hurriedly followed suit, puffing along as he chased after him.

Lexie and Mike, originally on campus, immediately sensed the trouble. Without hesitation, they had Heston teleport them directly to the scene.

By the time they arrived, Albern and the lecturers had already seen the updates from the livestream and were working on a way to contact the external mystic community.

Whatever the Black Smoke Organization intended to do next, they were determined not to let them succeed.

"I had Skylar stay behind to watch over our family and Sylvia at home." Thalia added, "Also, Sylvia has recovered her face."

Shannon wasn't particularly surprised by the outcome, for she and Thalia had only managed to develop the most basic form of face swap without a complete solution for its permanent reversion.

On top of that, the restoration could only last for ten minutes.

At first, she had only planned to use those ten minutes to expose Maya's true identity. Once she got her back to the Special Security Agency, she would have more time to work on a permanent method to undo the face swap.

But now, it seemed like there was no time to worry about that.

Noticing her strange expression, Benjamin stepped forward and stroked the Bentrix Stone hanging around Shannon's neck.

When the livestream was still ongoing, Benjamin had heard what Adeela had said earlier.

Shannon only felt a faint golden light seeping into her body from the Bentrix Stone in her chest. The chaotic supernatural strength within her seemed to calm down, though the force still guided by the array remained but was no longer as restrictive as before.

She had just discovered this method while dealing with Adeela—being able to channel the supernatural power into a talisman to draw it out. Though she couldn't completely eliminate that power, at least it wouldn't be as deeply influenced by the array.

With Adeela already under control, the Black Smoke Organization, lurking behind the scenes and attempting to seize Seastone's fortune, would inevitably make their appearance. After all, the cat was out of the bag.

She had to prepare herself before they showed their hand. What method would they use to steal such immense fortune?

As Shannon pondered, the staff who had been diligently filming and observing the program suddenly collapsed, one after another.

Meanwhile, the livestream audience, who had been filled with panic due to the loss of communication with the outside world, began to regain their composure after hearing Shannon's explanation.

With the help of these strong allies, their anxiety eased significantly. However, just as their hearts were finally settling, the situation took a sudden turn.

Several staff members collapsed without warning. Even people around them started to drop one after another, with no apparent reason behind their sudden collapse.
