Afterward, the old man didn’t spit out anything else and obediently finished drinking.
Nicholas Drake was watching the scene on the electronic screen, a subconscious smile tugging at the corner of his mouth.
There wasn’t a more beautiful sight in the world than this one.
Until the radiation source was found, these people would have to temporarily stay here.
Aubree Groove had Leandro Alvarez distribute food and water to them, making sure they drank their Chinese medicinal tea on time every day.
Afterwards, Aubree went back to the ship and locked herself in the warehouse, tirelessly researching amongst the piles of herbs day and night.
...
What was passed down by the ancestors was profound, traditional Chinese medicine was much deeper than western medicine.
Every kind of illness in the world could find its corresponding remedy.
Three days later, Victor didn’t find an opportunity to deal with Delan Sparrow, but trouble had come looking for him.
His men contracted a strange disease.
It started with skin lesions, quickly followed by rapid weight loss.
The wounds were horrifically deep, reaching the bone.
Moreover, it spread rapidly in the short span of three days, causing many of his men to fall ill.
Pirates did have doctors among them.
However, after examining the illnesses, the doctor shook his head.
It was a contagious disease. 𝙣𝙤𝒗𝙥𝒖𝒃.𝒄𝒐𝒎
These people needed to be isolated immediately.
Victor was upset upon hearing this.
“Isn’t this the same skin disease those savages had?
How could it be that contagious?
You quack doctor, if you can’t cure it, I’ll shoot you.”
Victor panicked after noticing a rash developing on himself.
The doctor was helpless, what could he do?
“The only solution now is to send them to the big cities for treatment, where they have advanced medical machinery.
Perhaps, they can be saved.
If they stay here, they can only wait for death.”
Victor immediately refuted this idea.
There was no way he could go to land.
He couldn’t afford the risk if their secrets were exposed.
“Boss, we have a problem.” Kennedy rushed in urgently.
Upon hearing of his men falling ill, Delan Sparrow’s brows knitted tightly together: “How could this happen?”
“Boss, I wanted to kill the savages back then, but you wouldn’t allow it.
Now look what’s happened, they’ve infected all our boys with their disease.
I’m going to kill them now.”
He was about to storm off resolutely.
“Hold your position.
What good would killing them do now?
It would only make the situation worse.”
“But…..”
“Have someone keep an eye on Miss Rintos.
Let’s see what she does next.”
Kennedy seemed to have an epiphany, his eyes widening: “They were all fine before she arrived.
As soon as she comes over, our men suddenly got infected.
Could she be behind this?
I want to kill her to avenge our brothers.”
Delan Sparrow threw a tea cup at him, fuming: “Why do you resort to violence at the drop of a hat?
Can’t you use your rusted brain for once?
Would killing her cure our brothers?”
Delan Sparrow shook his head: “I said it a long time ago, doing things this way would get us in trouble sooner or later.”
“I’ll find Allegro Kent, he won’t just ignore us.”
Delan Sparrow coldly stared at him: “If you want to die, go ahead.”
Kennedy hesitated: “What do you mean, boss?”
“Do you really think Allegro Kent cares whether we live or die?” Delan Sparrow asked casually.
“Why wouldn’t…..?” Kennedy suddenly fell silent.
He came over and sat down quietly.
After a long while, he said, “Boss, we were always ready to risk our necks in our line of work.
We’re all going to die sooner or later, but I don’t want to die like this.”
Delan Sparrow glanced at him: “I never knew you were afraid of death.”
“Boss, you were the one who brought me out of the village.
You’re my benefactor, I only listen to you.
Or else, let’s run.
We’ve made enough money, let’s flee to a place where nobody knows us and start a new life.”
“Naive, those people have eyes and ears everywhere.
Even if you flee to the ends of the earth, they can still kill you.”
“So, what…
Do we just stay here and wait for death?” Kennedy asked agitatedly.
“Of course not, we still have one chance.”
Kennedy immediately asked, “What is it?”
“The task I just assigned you.”
After a moment of surprise, Kennedy scoffed: “Are you talking about the blonde lass?
Boss, ever since you returned from Jimenez, you’ve become really soft.”
Delan Sparrow wasn’t affected by his mockery, raising the corner of his mouth: “I want to ask you, what happened with that missing cargo ship of the Rintos?”
Kennedy frowned and glanced at him: “I was the one who did it.”
Delan Sparrow shook his head: “You foolish man, by doing such a dumb thing, you’ve invited a plague upon us.”
