Gerald Crawford:The Secretly Rich Man Novel (Invisible or Poorest) Chapter 1071
Surprised, everyone immediately began gathering around the screaming girls as they asked, “What happened?!”

However, the answer to that question was immediately made clear the moment they looked in the direction the screaming girls were staring wide-eyed at.

Lying on the dune were two dead bodies! Under the moonlight, the corpses looked like they had been sucked dry, with their skin clinging on tightly to their torsos after having all their internal fluids sucked out.

“Those… Those are Minnie and Juan!” cried out someone from within the search party who recognized the clothes the corpses were wearing.

“How could this have happened…? It’s only been half an hour!” said Professor Yale.

Though the professor had a lot of experience in his field, he couldn’t help but feel that the current turn of events was absolutely incredulous. The sight of the two dead bodies alone made his hair stand on end!

“…It’s… It’s the Capra Nanny… She’s here!” stuttered the Master of the Desert in horror before gulping.

Hearing that, everyone grew even more frightened, prompting them to huddle closely together.

“Come to me, Giya! Stay by my side!” shouted Wynn, fear in his voice.

Meanwhile, the Master of the Desert—who was now already kneeling—began praying, “We’re just passing by, Capra Nanny! We have no other intentions, please forgive us!”

Hearing that, everyone else immediately began mimicking his actions, repeating the exact same words that the bearded man used.

Gerald, however, simply walked over to the two corpses and after taking a look, he said, “What Capra Nanny? This was done by a mere beast!”

“…W-what did you say? Nonsense! You’re just a young lad who doesn’t know any better! You’d best watch your tongue or you’re going to be the first person Capra Nanny kills!” reprimanded the Master of the Desert in return, clearly feeling that Gerald’s words were too careless.

“Watch your tongue or you’re going to be the first person Capra Nanny kills~!”

As soon as the Master of the Desert said that, a faint voice—that almost blended seamlessly with the wind and sand—was heard

Under normal circumstances, Gerald would’ve just walked past it so that he could be on his way. However, these weren’t normal circumstances. After all, Giya and her group were still behind him.

Gerald had feared for Giya’s safety since for one, the beast seemed to prefer attacking tourists. Secondly, he could also tell that the beast wasn’t something ordinary people could deal with easily. With that in mind, he could only turn back around to look for Giya.

When the beast finally realized who Gerald was, rage filled its green eyes as green saliva dripped from her gaping mouth.

“Leave! All of you! I’ll deal with her!” ordered Gerald as he turned around to look at Professor Yale and the others.

While Professor Yale and the others instantly nodded, Wynn himself took out a pistol from his pocket before saying, “It’s just a beast, isn’t it? What are all of you so afraid of? Worry not, Giya! I’ll protect you! Watch me kill her!”

Being the egoist that he was, Wynn was definitely not letting his rival steal his spotlight. With that, he took aim at the monster and pulled the trigger!

Though the bullet hit its mark, Capra Nanny was barely fazed by the attack.
