Chapter 183 A Deadlock
“Casplant Caplan! Are you alright?”
When Sylvia saw that Casplan was lost in thought, she worried that he might have been affected by the Cosule Octagonal Nexus disk again.
“What’s wrong?” Casplan turned and asked,
“You startled me! I thought something happened to you again…” She let out a sigh of relief.
“Don’t worry. I just thought of someone who might be able to decipher this,” Caspian explained.
He wouldn’t fall for the same trap twice in the same place.
“Who? Do you know anyone skilled in this area?” Sylvia anked curiously.
It wouldn’t be a surprise if he knew someone capable of deciphering the Cosmic Octagonal
Nexus disk.
“You know this person too. It’s Willow,” he replied calmly.
In truth, he wasn’t sure if Willow knew the secrets involved.
“What? Willow knows how to decipher 11?” Sylvia anked in amazement.
In her mind, anyone versed in this field would have substantial knowledge. Willow didn’t seem like she possessed such knowledge.
“Yes. She mentioned that her grandfather once shared some of the mysteries in astronomy. with her. I need to ask her for specifics,” Casplan said.
“Willow is truly amazing. She’s beautiful and knowledgeable!” Sylvia praised.
Initially, she thought Willow wasn’t suitable for Casplan. But now, it seemed they were a good
match.
“Caspian’s wife has only heard about these matters. She’s not an expert. I find her a little unreliable,” Macy remarked sarcastically.
For some reason, she felt annoyed upon hearing people praise Willow.
She wondered if what she was feeling was jealousy.
“Macy! Mind your words. Is It appropriate to say this in front of Caspian?” Sylvia’s expression turned serious.
“What’s inappropriate about it? I’m just telling the truth,” Macy replied curtly.

She was just being honest that Willow wasn’t a professional in this field.
“Perhaps Macy has a point. We could hand over the photo of this star disk to a specialist in Diatoran to decipher,” Caspian suggested.
They couldn’t entirely depend on Willow alone.
Afterward, Sylvia took photos of the surrounding patterns.
With that, Caspian left the place with his Elite team.
This wasn’t a matter that could be rushed. They needed a specialist to decipher it.
After leaving Dragon’s Hill, Caspian went straight back to his villa. He wanted to consult Willow in person about the Cosmic Octagonal Nexus disk.
When she mentioned it before, he hadn’t taken it seriously. Yet, coincidentally, he remembered it today.
Willow was home earlier than usual today.
She was sitting on the sofa, engrossed in a book.
“Willow, what are you reading?” Caspian leaned over her as he was curious
When he lowered his head, he caught a faint fragrance coming from her.
“It’s a book passed down from my grandfather. It’s something you wouldn’t understand,” she replied.
Caspian took a glance at the book and noticed that it contained a lot of astronomical knowledge, including geographical secrets.
“Is this the Cosmic Octagonal Nexus constellation chart?” He pointed at a picture in the book.
The picture looked somewhat similar to the Cosmic Octagonal Nexus disk.
“How do you know that? Do you understand it too? I remember mentioning it to you before, but you didn’t seem interested then.” Willow was surprised after hearing his words.
“I don’t understand it. Do you?” Caspian asked tentatively.
“Of course, I do. My grandfather taught me a lot about this, and the book contains detailed records. An ordinary geomanger might not know as much as me!” she replied somewhat proudly.
Her grandfather was highly skilled in this area, and much of what was written in the book was based on his experiences./
“Really? Why does it sound like you’re boasting to me?” he teased.

He wanted to provoke her a little bit.
“I know about astronomy, geography, and metaphysics. There’s nothing that I don’t know about!” She huffed.
“Then let’s make a bet. I have a chart here. If you can decipher it, you can ask for anything and I’ll agree.”
“Really? Then I’ll have you give me a good message. I’ve been so tired at work lately,” Willow
said with a smile.
Her smile was brimming with confidence.
Then, Caspian took out his phone and opened the photo of the stone door.
The Cosmic Octagonal Nexus disk was visible on the door.
Moreover, the picture displayed the entire view of the disk.
When Willow saw the photo, her eyes widened, and she froze in place.
“Caspian, where did you get this picture from?” she exclaimed.
Although she only glanced at it, she could already tell there was a mystery hidden within it.
“Why? You can’t decipher it? Sylvia sent it to me, saying it’s some kind of decryption game,” Caspian said.
He didn’t tell her the truth as it would be hard to explain it to her.
“It’s not that I understand it, but this Cosmic Octagonal Nexus chart can’t be deciphered!
It’s a dead end! The east constellation, which symbolizes the Azure Dragon, is under attack. and is in a perilous situation.
“It’s impossible to decipher this at all! It’s a complete deadlock!” Willow analyzed.
She even suspected that Caspian was purposely making it difficult for her by choosing such a challenging chart for her to decode.
“That’s true. It does look like a deadlock right now. But I think if you look carefully, there might be a way to crack it,” Caspian said.
This chart was the key to open the stone door. An ordinary person wouldn’t be able to see its hidden secrets at a glance.
Otherwise, the door would have been opened long ago.
“There’s nothing to see. ‘It’s clear that this is a dead end. It’s impossible to crack. Did Slyvia miss something, or did she not capture everything completely?” Willow asked.
She was sure that this was a dead end. Otherwise, with her knowledge, she would definitely be

“Don’t rush. Take another look. Maybe you’ll discover some mysteries,” Caspian advised.
Under his persuasion, Willow carefully examined the photo again.
The next moment, she suddenly realized that this wasn’t a decoding game.
It was an ancient puzzle with history!
