The basin's terrain is an obstacle that any operation must confront.
The village occupied by the Green-Eyed People, or rather, its transit warehouse for "logistics," is located in a dense forest.
Observing that place from a distance is by no means an easy task.
However, Aaron would absolutely not agree to go there to observe the situation.
Assuming that Lola is indeed leading that group of green-eyed people, then being within Lola's line of sight is extremely dangerous.
Therefore, Aaron considered building a simple wooden platform on the hillside so that he could have a view of the situation over there.
After he gave his orders, his men actually did as he instructed.
Knights are all proud and stubborn rough men; they would never willingly submit to Aaron, this seemingly weak and mysterious man.
Aaron was worried they would cause trouble, but thankfully they didn't.
It's easy to imagine that Duke Lopez must have put pressure on these two knights.
Things went smoothly, and the platform was completed in just two days.
It has to be said, that group of green-eyed people were truly a rabble.
They did not patrol the surrounding area at all, so they did not interfere with Aaron's construction of facilities not far from the warehouse. Aaron then ordered a small squad of infantry to attack the warehouse.
Aaron, on the other hand, climbed onto the high platform, intending to see firsthand how the rioters would respond.
A group of fully armed soldiers rushed out, brandishing their weapons and launching a counterattack.
But it was quickly suppressed.
But just then, a purple light screen suddenly appeared over there, and then all the soldiers Aaron sent out were cut in two.
By the time the remaining soldiers realized something was wrong, it was too late.
In the end, the entire army was wiped out.
Gael and Horn, who were watching from the high platform with Aaron, both gaped wide at the sight.
Aaron was equally surprised, but for a slightly different reason.
He was absolutely certain that it was the Realm of Clouds!
In other words, the one leading the Green-Eyed People is indeed Lola!
This makes things complicated.
Aaron quickly snapped out of his reverie, not wasting any emotion on the sacrifices of those soldiers.
"Let's go back to town first—"
After giving the order, Aaron led everyone away from the platform.
Soon, he returned to the town with his men. Because Aaron was a member of the Lopez family, the town's lord gave him a lot of face.
Aaron was therefore free to use the lord's study and used it as a battle hall.
He gazed at the map of the area, sensing the uneasy looks from the others in the study, and fell into deep thought.
Now Aaron finally understood why that group of rioters, who had absolutely no discipline or planning and were quite unprofessional, kept failing in the basin and had to rely on experts from the local community.
If that's Laura, then everything makes sense.
Of Aaron's students, Laura was arguably the most talented.
Although she has not yet fully mastered "The Knot of the Cloud Realm," this forbidden book is inherently difficult to master.
Moreover, she is very meticulous about details, but since taking a break, Laura has basically not encountered any major bottlenecks.
Henry was the least talented; that blockhead was truly a case of Aaron feeding him the extraordinary.
When he left the library, he had only learned a little bit, which was enough to barely begin self-study.
Henry's illiteracy may be an obstacle, but when Laura first arrived, she couldn't even speak!
Fortunately, Henry was a diligent man, and he eventually mastered the forbidden enchanted book.
Through his observation, Aaron discovered that Laura's current grasp of the Xia Realm far exceeds the level indicated in the "Borrowing Record of Forbidden Books".
Perhaps it was that wizard named Loloti who taught Lola witchcraft, allowing her to better utilize the Radiant Realm.
If that's the case, even if Aaron himself masters the "Knot of the Clouds" in the future, the effect might not be as good as Lola's.
Therefore, it is unlikely that second- or third-rate generals or warriors would be able to defeat Lola.
However, when facing the Xia Realm, numbers offer absolutely no advantage.
They were lucky to receive Aaron's help, but it was also Laura's misfortune.
But things get tricky precisely because the other person is Lola.
With this doll-like body, if it were to actually fight Lola head-on, it probably wouldn't even be able to touch her.
In other words, victory is impossible.
However, if all that's needed is to deal with Lola and kill her, Aaron can do that right now.
The curse that Brianna left for Aaron is a top-tier power that can affect a single target.
Furthermore, Aaron's top-notch understanding of this book allows him to unleash its full potential.
If Aaron wanted to, Laura would surely die.
But he would never kill Lola Aaron unless absolutely necessary.
It's even less likely that he would hurt Lola for the sake of an outsider.
He couldn't win in a fight, and he couldn't kill anyone, which is why Aaron was so troubled by the situation.
However, as one of the people who knows Lola best, Aaron has more than just fighting and killing to defeat her.
Aaron chuckled inwardly. Well, even though Lola had thrown a tantrum at him last time, Aaron still didn't mind teaching her another lesson.
And by the way, teach him a lesson too.
Aaron gazed at the map, and a plan gradually took shape in his mind.
Annie always listened with great interest when Aaron taught grammar to the two girls in the library.
This is what Aaron likes most about Anne. When she's being naughty, she really drives Aaron crazy, but when it's time to be serious, Anne never slacks off.
Lola, however, kept spacing out, her green eyes wide open, thinking Aaron couldn't tell.
Now, she should also experience the consequences of not paying attention in class.
But Aaron could also guess that, given Lola's personality, would she really cause such a big commotion and lead the green-eyed people in a rebellion?
Aaron felt that someone must be guiding Lola behind the scenes.
Well, I hope she wasn't being used or manipulated.
So the first step is to figure out that person's thinking habits.
This means that Aaron needs to give Laura some more wins.
Aaron then raised his head and said to everyone:
"The enemy is powerful; you must strictly follow my orders—"
Afterwards, Aaron told everyone in front of him about his plan.
After giving all the instructions, Aaron returned to the luxurious room that the town lord had arranged for him.
In any battle, both sides must resort to any means to achieve victory.
But the opponent is Lola after all. If she loses without understanding why, she might be dissatisfied.
So Aaron lay down on the bed.
He soon woke up in the library.
Aaron came to the library rooftop and looked at the Anchor Point of the Cloud Realm that Laura had left there.
A curse gradually took shape in Aaron's palm.
"Lola, if you don't understand that this is a hint, and that your opponent is me, then you're going to suffer for nothing—"
The curse burrowed into the ground and sped towards the basin.
