Invisible Rich (The Invisible Rich Man 2)

Chapter 795

“...P-professor Shevall? Professor Shevall..?” call Mila in a soft tone.

"Hmm? What's up, Mila?” the professor asked while looking at him with a gentle look and a smile.

"A ... Such a symbol seems to have appeared on your neck ..."

Under different circumstances, Mila would just assume that the symbol was just rash from all the scratches of the professor. However, the symbol seemed too familiar to be considered rash.

"…A symbol? What might you be talking about, Mila?” professor Shevall asked as a bitter smile formed on his face.

It was then that Mila became convinced that it was not just a rash on the professor's neck. Instead, the symbol on his neck was one that he recognized.

It looked exactly like the sun symbol on his pendant!

“It... Looks exactly like the symbol on the pendant we received!” mila said, now more and more frightened.

Hearing that, the others present started to look at each other before each of them took out their own pendants from their pockets. All pendants look exactly the same.

"So it turns out everyone accepted it!" Molly.

Upon realizing that everyone was familiar with the symbol, Professor Shevall's expression immediately changed. Seizing the pendant from Mila's hand, she paid close attention to it before scanning the other pendant held by the other members of the investigation team.

Not long after, his face turned white like sheets.

“...Mila, is the symbol on my neck really similar to the one on the locket?” ask the professor who seemed to have just had the worst day of his life.

Not knowing what was happening, Mila could only nod small.

“Damn it! And here I thought that the symbol was only reserved for the most important members! I don't expect everyone here to have it! ”

“What exactly does that symbol symbol denote, professor? I received it yesterday by mail!”

Seeing how ominous Professor Shevall's expression was, the others were now as afraid as Mila. After all, even though there were many of them in the room, they were still at sea in the middle of the night. The scary atmosphere is inevitable.

“...What do you mean by that, Professor Shevall? What comes up?” ask mila.

“It... It's all my fault... I've put you all in danger! I'm sorry!" the professor replied while taking off his glasses, unable to control his emotions anymore.

“It... the symbol of the League of the Sun.. The symbol itself is called the Pact of Death. Well, I have to say three times now since it finally reappeared today! Unfortunately, everyone who had ever been recorded receiving the symbol had mysteriously disappeared within three days! It has been decades since I researched the incident yet I have never nearly unraveled the mystery! ” explains Professor Shevall, his expression is terrible.

Hearing what he said, everyone immediately found themselves trembling in fear. After all, the professor was very knowledgeable and he did not seem to be the type of person who would make such a joke from the start.

It did not help that his expression remained solemn during his strange explanation.

“Stop the investigation! We'll be back soon!” the professor ordered while standing up immediately.

Not long after someone ran to convey his orders, the same person walked into the room again before shouting, “P-professor Shevall! Something... Something went wrong...!”

"Explain!"

“Only... Please come out and see for yourself! It was right in front of the liner..” replied the man, now completely out of breath.

Professor Shevall then quickly led the members of the investigation team out of the conference room, taking them all to the deck of the ship.

Naturally, Mila and Molly followed the group, huddling together to maintain the composure of each other.

Upon arriving at the deck, everyone was instantly dumbfounded. Molly even found herself screaming as soon as she realized what was going on outside.

A huge vortex had formed in the sea, and the ship was headed straight for it! Up close, it looked exactly like a huge mouth, devouring everything that crossed its path.

Although the captain was clearly trying to steer the ship away from the menacing whirlpool, the ship could not win against the powerful force of the vortex.

"Go back to the cabin immediately!" the professor shouted just as a loud clashing sound rang out.
