Professor Whitaker felt disoriented for a moment or two.
She felt the ground underneath her shift, and the world around her change. A faint gust of wind rustled her hair, and she suddenly arrived at a completely different place in the blink of an eye.
When she opened her eyes again, she found herself inside a sprawling vault with arched ceilings and dozens of thick pillars supporting it.
She looked around, perplexed.
Where… am I?
The participants around were also wondering the same.
This was a place that even Professor Whitaker had never visited before. Perhaps only Adam, and before him, the Headmaster, might have been here.
But the strange and mind-boggling thing about this place was… it was filled with gold!
Even the elderly woman, who was wealthy in her own right, had never seen such a quantity of wealth. There were mounds of gold coins, precious gems, and jewelry. Some were so massive, they almost formed small hills.
