Chapter 1007: 313. Noland does good deeds_3

This situation was very different from that of the other laborers.

The completeness of other laborers’ memory fragments ranged only from 1% to 5%, while Xander’s was as high as 50%.

Xander also had a companion named Evelyn Thatcher.

Day after day, they waited for help from Baldur’s Gate, but it never came.

Instead, the City of Exiles welcomed a few important figures of mysterious origins.

These important figures resided in the Upper City Area and never showed themselves in the Lower Town.

Yet all the magic materials they required were gathered by the laborers of the Lower Town.

With their arrival, the daily workload of the laborers increased exponentially. It was only when they left that the laborers’ workload returned to normal.

This was how Xander and Evelyn Thatcher deduced that important persons had arrived in the town.

“Important figures… hmm, could they be that group of Black Robes appearing in Xander’s memory fragments?”

Noland Lee rubbed his chin, his gaze flickering:

“A group of Black Robes wielding Death Magic visiting the City of Exiles and using detection spells to pick out the laborers they want.

“My intuition tells me they are selecting subjects for a Magic Experiment.

“Evelyn Thatcher meets the experiment’s criteria; she was taken away by the Supervisor, while those like Xander, who do not meet the criteria, were sent out of the city right under my nose to construct a Magic Barrier. They are using the laborers unfit for experiments as cannon fodder…”

Due to the ethical education he received before crossing over, Noland Lee had a favorable impression of those who clung to the desire to survive in dire circumstances.

He did not mind lending a hand to Xander and Evelyn Thatcher.

If possible, he would help Xander return to Ground Level.

As for Evelyn Thatcher… her fate was in the hands of the heavens.
