Return of the Crowned Heiress novel Chapter 710

Sure enough, just as that thought crossed Felicia's mind, the same crew member who had previously shouted to steer the ship away let out another cry of alarm.

"What's going on? All the navigation systems just failed! The radar is down too!"

Maurice's men instinctively checked their own devices—phones, communication tools, everything. But every screen was filled with static and unreadable symbols. Nothing worked.

It was exactly like what had happened when they first stepped into the rainforest.

Felicia remained calm, reassuring them, "Don't panic. The storm won't affect us."

Stanley looked surprised. He almost asked how she knew that, but instead, he wisely chose to keep his mouth shut. He also signaled the panicked crew members to quiet down and stop making a fuss.

Meanwhile, Stephan stood beside Felicia, holding a sleek black umbrella over her head and shielding her from most of the rain.

Neither of them moved from the observation deck. Though their shoes and pant legs were already drenched, they stood firm as they gazed at the massive swirling vortex in the distance.

The wind howled, the rain poured, and another bolt of lightning split through the night sky, casting a sudden, brilliant reflection across the sea.

Felicia's heart pounded violently in her chest. She instinctively grabbed Stephan's hand. "Look there! Doesn't that look like the outline of a unicorn?"

She pointed toward the swirling storm, tracing the shape with her fingers.

Stephan followed her gaze and saw it too.

It was a breathtaking sight—an extraordinary phenomenon. The interplay between the sky's lightning and the ocean's storm had created an unmistakable image. Within the raging whirlpool, the shape of a unicorn flickered in and out of sight like an ethereal illusion.

And then, almost as if responding to the appearance of the mythical symbol, the storm suddenly stopped.

The thick, churning clouds dispersed, revealing the moon in its full, luminous glow. The night sky, once consumed by chaos, was now crystal clear. Countless stars twinkled above, shining brilliantly.

Below, the sea, bathed in moonlight, calmed as the dark vortex and the fog from the rainstorm began to fade away. In that instant—before everyone's eyes—an island emerged.

Even though they had expected it, the sight still sent a chill down their spines.

Maurice's men gasped in disbelief, their eyes wide with shock.
