Chapter 462 The Terrifying Fortune

Brandon appeared solemn. “Material possessions are not the most important thing in this small country. The true treasure of this land is said to be a stone that fell from the sky.”

Freya nodded, her curiosity piqued. “A meteorite? Meteorites aren’t typically considered valuable, right?”

As she examined “The Compendium of Medical Wisdom,” a book from the Middle Ages, the gold thread pattern tucked inside remained intact. This suggested that ancient craftsmen attached immense. importance to it.

He smiled, adding depth to the tale. “It might be a meteorite, but it’s said to be an incredibly dazzling stone, shimmering with many colors.”

As she listened, it increasingly sounded like a myth. “And then?”

“Legend has it that this stone can cure all diseases. The king of this small country owned the stone and lived for over a hundred years.”

Brandon chuckled, emphasizing the remarkable nature of the story. “In an era where the average lifespan was forty to fifty years, this is nothing short of legendary.”

Freya laughed skeptically. “Why would anyone believe in such a legend?”

He pointed to the sketches she had copied, deepening the mystery. “It may be a legend, but when you see these sketches, do you still think it’s merely a myth?”

Internet rumors about meteorites curing diseases have circulated for years. No matter how skeptical she was, she couldn’t help but suspect that the museum curator might have fabricated the story.

Freya asked, her doubts persisting, “What about this pattern?”

Brandon nodded, providing further context. “It’s said that this treasure brought calamity to the small country and attracted the attention of a larger nation. To aid future generations in finding it, the ruler of the small country left behind these patterns.”
