Chapter 590 A Big Move Against William



"I believe giving his head to our friend here is going to be nice, right?" Richard turned to the third man standing behind him. He was a young man, around twenty years old or something.

If William was here, he'd get shocked to recognise this man on the spot. It was Rick, the Aspire academy's headmaster's grandson, Sara's brother, the one who William marked as a traitor.

"I'm sure my master will be pleased with such a gift," unlike what Larry expected, Rick just agreed with Richard's idea.

"See? Let's proceed then," Richard showed a vicious expression on his face, "I want to see her face when her biggest support is gone."

"This kid is nothing," Larry was still not feeling like Richard. And that brought him a deep look from the latter.

Anyone watching these two right now would see how truly their relationship was. Richard wasn't the puppet Larry brought on stage to control as everyone guessed. In fact, the puppet was Larry.

"Don't underestimate him," Rick suddenly said, "I saw how he can make the impossible happen. Don't lower your guard, and don't send weaklings to take him down. Make sure he'll be killed once and for all."

The tone and attitude Rick spoke with proved how deep his hatred ran towards William. And he got the right to feel so. After all, and after he betrayed his family, his grandfather, and the academy, he ended up losing everything five years ago.

The big war that William started ended up engulfing everything related to dark forces in that region. Rick lost his future, and with it he had to find another dark force to follow.

Luckily for him, and in the middle of all this chaos and blank future, Rick found a dark master rallying everyone to him. He joined the new dark master. Many also joined this dark master, like lots of scattered dark forces who managed to survive the purge, in addition to the lots of traitors, the same as Rick.

The latter came here with one single mission, to turn William's life into hell. This was the desire of his new master, the same desire of Rick as well.

William didn't get that he was eyed by an old enemy, one that he never thought he'd come looking for him now. Since that great war, Rick vanished from the academy, didn't show his face again to his grandfather.

Lucas thought his grandson died in this war, and that made him a bit depressed. This was also part of his increasing demands for Sara to come and follow him to the new academy. He wasn't the headmaster there anymore, but Sara was the sole heir to his family right now.

William walked in the streets of the city without realising anything about the storm coming at him. He walked towards the market while thinking about the time he went there before.

His past visit there ended up with him stumbling across the Lost City. And without knowing it, he was also going to experience something grand in the market soon enough.

eαglesnᴏνel "I want Black Bamboo wood sticks, half a ton if you can get me that."

"I need the Silver Green Antical liquid, around one hundred barrels if you have them."

"I need Tigsten Brown Thorn ores, formed on the shape of rods…"

William didn't need to look for any special shop or stall like the previous time. He just walked around and kept ordering what he needed in big amounts. The weapon he wanted to make was something strong, but it needed lots of materials and complicated steps to make.

William didn't make any of such weapons himself before but watched a friend making these before. He still recalled what his friend did, and he was confident in his ability to mimic such a process perfectly fine.

In the outer world, such weapons might not be considered strong. However in this tiny world, and when using materials that came from the outer world, then it'd be deadly.

William was sure that all the materials appearing in the Lost City came from the outer world. It wasn't just because he saw them before, but also because of the presence of the interworld portal underneath the city.

These materials came from spatial cracks, ones that connected this tiny world with the outer one. That was why William was sure any of the recipes or blueprints he gave to Lara would yield amazing and shocking results.

To him, he knew the weapons he was going to make would all be quite scary and formidable.

William kept walking in the market, purchasing tons of materials. Soon news spread about someone who looked exactly like the one rumoured to be behind the current disaster affecting the city.

The merchants didn't care about any of that. They only cared about crystals, and William got tons of them. As for other forces and families, they started to rally their formidable masters, aiming to break the laws of the city and try to take William down.

It wasn't just Richard's assassins who were coming to hit William, but at least the forces of forty something forces in the entire city were heading towards him as well.

Such a grand movement was indeed easy to attract attention. And soon news spread to Lara, who was having her best day in a long time.

The scrolls William gave to her worked like magic. She insisted that only people from her faction would read these scrolls in detail and make everything mentioned there.

When others complained, she just told them to wait for the final products, and then they could purchase them at a big discount. Like this, they could examine the results of these scrolls, not the scrolls themselves. As for getting a glimpse at the scrolls, they'd better reach the seven heavens easier than doing that.

Of course, she knew part of her faction would sell the content in the scrolls they read. Yet it was also a good chance for her to filter her side, learn about where the allegiance of those surrounding her truly laid.
