“This is strange...” Jared furrowed his brows.
“Why did Mr. Sanders give us a Wordless Tome? He didn't let us know how...” Melanie was perplexed.
“I'm sure he has reasons for giving me this book. If he didn't tell me how I should decrypt it, then he must have thought I have my ways of reading it.”
Jared's admiration for Arthur was endless, not just because he helped him. But because he felt that Arthur was a knowledgeable person who knew and understood everything under the stars.
“Jared, do you think you need to use your blood to connect to Wordless Tome to decrypt it?” Josephine questioned then.
Hearing her words, Jared quickly bit his finger and smeared a few drops of blood on Wordless Tome.
As expected, the book absorbed Jared's blood instantly before it emitted a glow.
A drawing slowly became apparent on the first page of Wordless Tome. Multiple scarlet-colored blood stripes appeared, revealing a map on it.
Renee exclaimed excitedly after seeing the book's changes. “Yay! Finally. Now I can see the book's content!”
Jared didn't stop to look at the map first, though. He flipped to other pages, dropping his blood onto them.
However, Wordless Tome didn't react to his blood this time, as the pages remained empty.
Jared and the rest froze, noticing how Wordless Tome was unresponsive. They thought they had found the correct way to unlock the book's contents. Yet, only one page of helpful information was all they got.
Josephine spoke up, “Let's take a look at the map. Maybe the way to unlocking its content is hidden in the map.”
