Chapter 417 Clues
That night, after parting ways with Lola, Aaron immediately returned to the camp, where the Green-Eyed Man prisoners were being held together in one barracks.
Aaron immediately went to find a woman named Gillian.
Laura asked Aaron for Gillian.
She rarely made demands of Aaron; well, Anne, on the other hand, often flirted and flattered Aaron in exchange for some favors.
As for Lola, she was mostly too indifferent to desires.
Since it was Laura's request, Aaron felt he should help if he could.
Fortunately, Gillian survived.
She was a short woman; to be honest, people with green eyes are generally short.
Lola is considered tall among the green-eyed women.
Gillian is nowhere near as adorable as Lola, whose clear eyes make it obvious to everyone that she is innocent and naive.
In short, she was a woman with a very ordinary appearance.
But Lola must have some reason for protecting her.
Aaron led Gillian to the place he had arranged to meet Lola. The two embraced again before parting ways.
Before parting, Aaron told Laura that she could come back anytime she wanted to go home.
Lola nodded and said she would definitely go back someday.
But right now, there are still many things she hasn't figured out, and she's not mature enough. She wants to try her best to become a better person.
Aaron told her not to rush, that he could wait patiently.
Yes, Aaron is always very good at waiting.
Although Aaron won the battle in this incident.
But he had to admit that Lola had become a truly formidable opponent.
Once she has a more refined grasp of the Radiant Realm, her strength will likely leap forward even further.
Lola has matured a lot psychologically, but it seems she still needs more experience.
"And what about Annie?" Aaron couldn't help but wonder. "Is she doing well now?"
Many people have left the library, but Aaron's greatest concern is undoubtedly for Anne.
He watched Annie grow up from a tiny baby. Although he tried not to get too close to Annie, some things cannot be controlled by willpower.
In short, Aaron at least hoped that Anne could live the life she wanted.
Aaron didn't ask Laura what she was going to do next, and the two parted ways that night.
Aaron quickly quelled the slave riot.
After that, they immediately returned to the deserted bunker.
It took about ten days to get there. To be honest, the basin's terrain is really too complicated, and transportation is very inconvenient.
Despite the pleasant climate, economic development would be severely hampered.
This is why slavery was so prevalent in the basin.
Upon returning to the deserted castle, Aaron immediately reported back to Duke Lopez.
Lopez was shocked; the troops he had sent out this time had been almost completely wiped out!
Unbeknownst to him, Aaron had also mobilized a large number of local troops.
It could be said that this was a Pyrrhic victory.
Of course, if Aaron were to use his supernatural abilities, there would naturally be a less costly way to win.
However, he had no relation to the duke here and had no need to consider the man's interests.
Keep in mind, their opponent was Lola. They should be thankful that they were able to defeat Lola with only so many troops.
Based on Aaron's observations over this period, none of Duke Lopez's men can restrain Lola.
Despite Duke Lopez's dissatisfaction, Aaron had completed his mission and had to keep his promise.
Ha, he should be glad he didn't play any tricks; Aaron doesn't like being made fun of.
From that day on, Aaron began to research materials in the castle.
At night, Aaron also had to rest in his room in the castle.
The doll doesn't need to sleep, but Aaron needs to return to the library.
Right now, the library is quite lively.
At the same time, the atmosphere was very tense.
Dick remained unconscious, and Peggy's illness was not cured.
Harriet has had a very tough time these days.
She found several medical books from somewhere and began studying them whenever she had free time.
She also told Aaron that, for some reason, she felt the healing power had become much stronger.
Aaron knew the reason: the spices had unleashed her potential.
Through this experiment, Aaron clearly understood one thing.
The power contained in spices is connected to the entire supernatural system of this world.
It is no coincidence that spices from the New World possess these powers.
The ancient connection between the New World and the Eastern world must also be related to this secret.
In other words, what exactly gives spices their power?
Aaron felt that once he solved this mystery, he would likely come across a truth that would shock him.
The search for the lost chapters of the Emerald Record will inevitably bring Aaron closer to the truth.
That night, when Aaron woke up, he was surprised to learn that Dick had also woken up.
Harriet said, "He opened his eyes, but closed them again a few minutes later."
This is good news, indicating that Dick's injury is improving.
He is still too weak to maintain his condition for long.
Aaron asked Harriet, "How is he doing now?"
"He's much more stable than before, but he's still pale, probably because he still doesn't have enough blood."
Yes, it's because of insufficient nutrition.
Aaron has been instructing them to purchase more blood-nourishing foods these days, and it seems they need to intensify their efforts.
Peggy was the happiest of all; it was the first time Aaron had seen a smile on her face since she returned.
Even when working normally, they are more motivated.
This little girl really wears her heart on her sleeve!
However, Peggy has indeed learned a lot recently.
It's actually quite difficult to teach a young lady to take care of people and do chores.
The person in charge of teaching her was Cathy, since he was the one with the most free time right now.
But in terms of being spoiled, the two are actually about the same.
Aaron also hoped that Dick would wake up soon, as he wanted to figure something out.
What could have caused him to be injured like this?
If it's not a top-tier expert, then it's related to spices.
If it is the latter, Aaron must not turn a blind eye!
Dick is already able to open his eyes. It should take about half a month for him to recover enough to speak.
Aaron, who was in charge of guarding Dick at night, would always review the forbidden books in the library during this time.
Perhaps we can find clues about what happened before the Dragon Burning Disaster in the details that we have overlooked in the past.
Two days later, Aaron found a potentially useful clue in the library of the deserted fortress.
It was a book that had become damp and blackened, and the pages looked as if they would crumble at the slightest touch.
The events recorded in this book may have occurred before the Dragon Burning Disaster!
The book records that griffins once roamed the basin.
Warriors once rode griffins to fight against dragons.
The cradle that nurtures the griffin lies somewhere in the basin.
If Aaron wants to investigate the lost chapters hidden in the basin, perhaps he should start here!
