Chapter 405 Urgent Return
Aaron had just finished outlining the battle plan and returned to his room.
Suddenly, a deep blue light appeared inside his mask.
This means that someone has entered the library.
Aaron felt himself activating the power of illusion, instantly returning his soul to the library.
Aaron had long since become accustomed to this feeling of his soul being compressed and extracted.
Without hesitation, he quickly got out of bed and faced the direction of the library.
Fortunately, the person who came in was not a stranger, and Aaron's slightly nervous heart immediately relaxed.
He smiled and said to the people in front of him:
"Welcome back, Cathy, Harriet."
"Mr. Mosley," Cathy and Harriet greeted Aaron at the same time.
Aaron continued, "Since Sir Dick and Miss Peggy aren't with you, it means your plan has succeeded, and they've already left?"
When he asked the question, the two fell silent.
Aaron immediately realized, "Hmm? Has something gone wrong?"
Kathy took a step forward: "We did destroy the tower, and the knight fulfilled my request to him. We are now even."
“But,” Harriet added, “Sir Dick is also injured.”
Harriet's tone was rather heavy when she said this, which puzzled Aaron:
"Didn't you heal his injuries?"
"I can heal wounds, but I can't create blood out of thin air," Harriet replied.
Aaron immediately understood Dick's situation: "So, Knight Dick died from blood loss?"
"No," Harriet shook her head, "He's still alive. Cassie gave him her blood, but he's still on the verge of death."
Kathy saved Dick with her own blood? This was truly unexpected for Aaron.
He looked at Casey and found the boy's face was calm.
Ha! These three men are quite different now; they deserve to be looked at with new respect!
Previously, Kathy was extremely susceptible to external interference.
Both clarity and judgment can fluctuate greatly.
But does this mean that Kathy has learned to control her emotions and feelings?
In this way, Cathy's trip was not in vain.
Aaron immediately asked, "Where's Dick?"
“He’s outside,” Harriet replied. “He’s very weak right now, so sir, I’d like to ask you to help carry him in.”
Indeed, with Cathy's petite frame, she is not very reliable.
Aaron nodded and immediately followed Harriet outside the library.
A horse-drawn carriage was parked on the withered grass.
The autumn air enveloped Peggy, who was kneeling on the carriage floor, making her appear extremely melancholy.
Aaron went over and, together with Harriet, carried Dick into the house and placed him on Aaron's own bed.
Peggy stayed close by, but seemed afraid of causing trouble, and dared not say a word more than necessary.
Aaron immediately focused his attention on Dick. He took a knife from the drawer of the register and cut off the dirty clothes off Dick.
A foul stench filled the air, and large clumps of blood clumped onto Dick's body.
Aaron looked at Harriet: "You should keep the patient clean, otherwise the wound is prone to infection. Your healing power cannot cure all diseases."
"Thank you for your advice, sir," Harriet bowed. "However, I have no time to clean up, sir. Many accidents have happened on the plateau. We are afraid of our pursuers and dare not linger on the road. We should take advantage of every opportunity to get on our way."
It was then that Aaron noticed Harriet's dark circles under her eyes.
Aaron asked, "How long has it been since you slept?"
"Two days, or even longer," Harriet replied, "I need to drive the carriage."
With Dick seriously injured, the task of driving the carriage indeed fell to Harriet.
Kathy should be able to ride a horse, but driving a car is not a required skill for a "young master".
Aaron also guessed what Harriet had done to him:
"Don't rely too much on the power of 'Eternal Life,' especially when using it on yourself. It is indeed a gentle power, but too much of anything is bad, and excessive gentleness will bring disaster."
"yes...
Aaron examined Dick's wounds and found multiple sword wounds as well as injuries from beatings.
But the most shocking thing was definitely the injury to his abdomen.
Judging from the wound marks, his abdomen had been almost completely cut open.
The fact that the scars were so obvious indicates that the wounds had been there for quite some time when Harriet received treatment.
Seemingly sensing Aaron's thoughts, Harriet said:
"Sir, when I saw him, his intestines were almost completely—"
"It's leaking out?" Aaron nodded, guessing what Harriet hadn't finished saying. "Is Dick in any immediate danger?"
“He was never out of danger,” Harriet replied. “It’s a miracle he’s still alive—”
Upon hearing this, Aaron considered for a few seconds, then immediately said to Harriet:
"Leave this to us, you go and get some rest. Harriet, you need some sleep."
Harriet didn't try to be brave; she nodded and immediately returned to her bedroom.
Aaron looked at Cathy and Peggy, Cathy sitting far away waiting for him.
Peggy sat anxiously on the edge of the bed.
Her eyes were very red, which meant she must have been crying nonstop.
Is there really nothing she can do besides cry?
Aaron smiled and asked Peggy, "Miss, are you tired?"
Peggy looked at Aaron with a serious expression, then shook her head earnestly:
"I'm not tired! Sir, please save him! I'll do anything. If there's anything I can do to help, please let me know!"
"Then go and boil some water, Miss. We need to use warm water to wipe Sir Dick's body. If his wounds get infected, I'm afraid even a miracle won't be able to save him."
"I'll go right now!"
"The kitchen is over there—"
As soon as Aaron finished speaking, Peggy practically ran to carry out his orders.
Then Aaron checked Dick's pulse; it was faint and barely perceptible, indicating a very bad situation.
The situation was extremely dire. It could only be said that if Dick hadn't been incredibly lucky and hadn't been with Harriet, he would have had no chance of survival.
However, Aaron was very curious as to why Dick, who possessed the secrets of the dragon, had suffered such a serious injury.
Could it be that there is a powerful being on the plateau capable of breaking Dick's abilities, or is it related to spices?
This was no simple matter; Aaron needed to find out the truth. Just as he was thinking this, Peggy arrived carrying a bucket of boiling water.
Aaron smiled and explained, "I need warm water, miss. You'll need to bring another bucket of cold water. Oh, and get some salt from the kitchen."
"Salt-..-
Looking at Peggy's expression, Aaron realized that she was also a pampered person.
Aaron looked at Cassie: "Cassie, can you cook something?"
Kathy nodded: "What would you like to eat?"
"Keep it light, thin porridge and meat broth would be good, and add some spices."
Kathy nodded and headed towards the kitchen.
Seeing this, Peggy followed.
Aaron sent Cathy to the kitchen not just so he could identify "salt" for Peggy.
It was also for the purpose of utilizing spices.
The spices of this world possess unimaginable power.
Perhaps it can help Dick right now...
