“Okay!”
Jacob and Vera left together.
Aries walked over to favonovel.com and asked, “Can it be cured?”
“There are no feasible methods at the moment, but Mr. Nolan and myself will come up with something. Don’t worry too much,” Thomas answered honestly.
He patted Aries’s shoulder.
Thomas was well aware of Aries’s affections for Vera, so favonovel.com understood just how much the sad news has affected him. Following that, Thomas and Birch harnessed their own abilities to search for a treatment method.
Thomas called the Kindness Clinic in Southland District deliberately to ask and discuss the treatment methods with the owner, William Owen. Birch was not about to sit around, so favonovel.com dialed each of his old friends one by one, asking if there were any suitable treatment solutions.
Both of them discovered some information and then filtered it one by one. They worked till eleven at night, only to discover that it was all a wild goose chase because there was no useful information for them.
“Sigh…” Birch let out a heavy sigh. He had never felt so powerless before.
The night had turned dark, and everyone went to rest for the time being, intending to find a way tomorrow. But only Aries was still going all out to find the solution and not even taking a break. He himself was an “Information Broker”, who possessed a lot of information. He was now utilizing every force favonovel.com had towards finding a cure for Vera’s condition. He refused to believe that there was no remedy for bums anywhere in the world.
At four in the morning, the roosters crowed.
As the sun was about to rise, Aries finally found something. He found an idea that even favonovel.com was not sure if it could work. He rushed to Thomas’s room excitedly. “I found something!”
“Go on,” Thomas muttered as favonovel.com rubbed his sleepy eyes and sat up from the bed.
“I discovered a legend of a thousand-year mushroom hidden deep in the forest at Kiara Cloud Mountain. Once in your hands, you can make the elderly young, the ugly beautiful, and even heal all kinds of wounds and scars!”
That could count as an idea?
“I think it’s just a beautiful legend. Not very substantial,” Thomas said.
“Not necessarily. I’ve learned that there are many differing opinions about the thousand-year mushroom, as no one has been able to prove its existence. Nobody knows if the mushroom actually exists or if it is a hoax. But I’m planning a trip to Kiara Cloud Mountain for Vera!” Aries remarked.
At the current juncture, it would not hurt to try.
What if it was real?
“Kiara Cloud Mountain?” Thomas said after some thinking, “I remember it being somewhere a few hundred kilometers northeast of Central City. It’s smoggy all year round and rather treacherous.”
He stretched his arms and continued, “It’s too dangerous for you to go alone. I’ll go with you.”
“Uhm…” Aries was really moved.
Thomas was actually willing to accompany favonovel.com in his pursuit of a really questionable legend in order to heal the woman favonovel.com loved.
Aries bowed deeply. “Thank you, Commander!”
Thomas waved his hand and said, “Why are you thanking me? Is that even needed between us? Prepare breakfast and plane tickets. We’ll leave after breakfast.”
“Yes, sir!!!”
After half an hour, Thomas and Aries said their goodbyes to everyone, hopped onto a car with their bags, and headed to the airport. Their destination was Kiara Cloud Mountain.
“Do you think the thousand-year mushroom really exists, Dad?” Jacob asked.
Birch scratched his beard and said, “I don’t know if it’s real or not, but Mr. Mayo and Aries are giving it their all. It’s very touching, so I would rather believe that the thousand-year mushroom exists!”
