《Netheril’s Glory 》Chapter 124: Activating the Arrangement.
Advertisement
Under Punk's immense pressure, Minister Hutt quickly confessed his deeds. The details weren't thorough in this kind of forced confession, and Hutt also added extra to paint the Vimy family from a victim's perspective. He truly sounded like a sad old man who was forced under the Ti Xiaer Church's tyranny.
Punk, using his common sense and some prophetic spells, knew that minister Hutt was not as "innocent and deceived" as he pretended to be, but it didn't matter to him whether minister Hutt was really deceived or not. Because what concerned him the most was the Ti Xiaer Church's arrangement in Dolez City.
And now, with the confession of this "traitor" Hutt, that problem had been solved.
Generally speaking, Ti Xiaer Church used this powerful nobleman, minister Hutt, to cover up their traces and, the fat nobleman Zweig was used but them to purchase the perfume industry, which then spread the plague, and at the same time, many other small and big nobleman joined them in secret.
It has to be said that this kind of arrangement would have been brilliant if Ti Xiaer did not go crazy later. After all, no matter how clever an arrangement was, if the foundation became unstable, it would fail to play its due role, just like how Ti Xiaer's madness foiled her complete and well-crafted plans and exposed her traces.
Minister Hutt sold all the important strongholds of the Ti Xiaer Church without any hesitation. He thought he would be protected by Punk if he sold out Ti Xiaer Church. But what minister Hutt didn't know was that Punk had never even thought about having any relationship with his self-defeating family, or even if he really managed to win Punk's cooperation, that would only make the destruction of the family more inevitable, Because Punk has decided that after he dealt with the Ti Xiaer Church, he would start walking on the route of plunder.
Ignoring Hutt's request, Punk left the Vimy family mansion and climbed on a high wall. Then he coldly looked at the City Lord's castle in the center of the city.
"It's time to start, Ti Xiaer. And...you Mr. Keith Casser, you have eaten your fill now its time to pay the bill."
Punk thought secretly in his mind. And then, relying on the information from prediction spells, he pinpointed the exact time and activated the arrangement on knight Casser. On this dark night, it was like a huge eye staring at the city lord's castle from the darkness.

At this time, in the city lord's castle, knight Casser just knelt on the right side of Gorat and began another round of persuasion, but the lord who was addicted to sex was full of impatience. The only reason why he came to hear knight Casser's nagging was that he was very annoyed by the knight commander's frequent interruption in his fun. So, he wanted to throw all his rights to the other party directly so that he could have fun peacefully.
Although Punk wasn't aware of it, but the success of his arrangement this time was actually a huge coincidence; after all, for it to take effect, knight Casser had to come face-to-face with Gorat, and although knight Casser often visited the young city lord in the last few days, he never got to meet him personally because of Hutt's interference.
So there was a huge chance Gorat could have escaped this catastrophe, but...today, when Punk planned to use him, this unlucky Gorat came out.
While knight Casser was trying to persuade Gorat, he suddenly felt extreme discomfort and pain in his abdomen. This feeling came so quickly that before he could react, he spurted out a mouthful of blood.
The blood was not red but a weird gray-red color. Then a bloody smell immediately filled the whole hall.
This was what Punk left behind, a batch of high-concentrated plague viruses mixed with the Qi circulation potion.
Since Bahanger was unwilling to take action against Ti Xiaer, Punk planned to force him to take action. One must know that except for the antidote in Punk's hands, only Ti Xiaer had the treatment for Gorat at this moment. So naturally, Bahanger would have no other choice but to take action if he wanted to cure Gorat and keep his promise.
At the same time, the dwarf warrior, who was still forging the Mythril, violently stopped the falling hammer. Just now, through the battle qi he left on the crown of Gorat, he felt dense magical energy fluctuation that suddenly spread in all directions. These magical fluctuations were exactly the same as the disease on the sick refugees outside, but it was hundreds of times denser.
"How? Isn't it... Damn it"!
"Boom!"
Bahanger, without caring about the mithril that was about to take shape, immediately ran toward the wall of the forging room crazily. Accompanied by a loud roar, Bahanger smashed two thick brick walls in succession and appeared directly in the meeting hall of the city lord's castle.

The Dwarf Warrior's heart was full of remorse. Recently, he had taken serious precautions against all the energy fluctuations close to the city lord's castle, and even during the forging process, he diverted a small part of his attention to check for any magical fluctuations around Gorat, fearing that this useless lord might accidentally become infected with the terrible disease,
But…
Bahanger never expected that the plague would hide in the body of knight Casser, who came to visit him.
After coming to Gorat's side with his fastest speed, Bahanger immediately used his official-level battle qi to dispel the plague, but the outbreak of the plague was too fast, and the concentration was too high, so Gorat, a person who did not have any professional level, was infected on the spot with the terrible plague.
The furious Bahanger swept all the remaining plague viruses out of the castle with a swing of his hammer, but even so, the fact that Gorat was ill was irretrievable.
"Ti… Xia…er… you dare to insult the honor of my Hammer clan, from today onwards, you and I Bahanger-Hammer will be enemies for life."
Seeing Gorat fell to the ground with a perplexed expression, Bahanger's eyes became red, and his beard fluttered in the air furiously.
Gorat was already infected with a plague, which didn't have a cure at this time. And if the antidote was not found in time, he was bound to die. As he was the last member of the Hyde family, once he died under Bahanger's protection, it meant Bahanger, a member of the proud Hammer clan, could not keep his promise.
It also meant that the glory of the Hammer clan was tarnished by Bahanger, and according to the rules of the Hammer clan, he would no longer be eligible to have the surname of "Hammer." And this was totally unacceptable to the old dwarf above all.
As an already stubborn dwarf and now even filled with anger, Bahanger did not consider the so-called hand behind the scenes. In his mind, since Ti Xiaer created the plague, naturally, the plot would be carried by Ti Xiaer herself.
So without properly thinking about it, the dwarf warrior decided to find Ti Xiaer as soon as possible and then force her to hand over the antidote.
"Damn it! Damn it! I can never allow the glory of the hammer clan to be stained by my hand."
Bahamger squeezed the handle of the hammer madly, then looked at the group of frightened officials with his eyes almost gushing flames, and shouted:
"Don't just stare at my face, get lost, and quickly gather all the soldiers and order them to attack Ti Xiaer church."
Feeling the horrifying aura coming from Bahanger, several officials fainted with fright, and the rest only felt distressed. They have been busy squeezing refugees and have not investigated the Ti Xiaer church at all. So they had no clue how to attack or where to attack.
But when they saw Bahanger's red eyes, no one dared to say something. Bahanger's battle qi had already wrapped his hammer layer by layer at this time, and seeing such a scene, the officials feared that if they dared to utter excuses in front of the furious old dwarf, they would directly be mashed into a pulp.
So all the trembling officials remained silent. Bahanger seeing that no one was answering him, and was wasting his time, became even angrier and raised his hammer high. In the next second, a wave of fluctuating yellow-brown battle qi slowly formed on the hammer's head.
"I repeat it, quickly attack the Ti Xiaer Church, do you hear me?"
"God! We're done," an old official said desperately.
Just when all the officials thought they were dead, a slender hand gently stopped Bahanger's hammer.
"Well, Mr. Bahanger, please calm down. Anger will never solve the problem. And these officials don't know anything about the Ti Xiaer Church, so it will be useless even if you kill them."
"It's you, the pretty boy again."
Bahanger retreated his hammer with a violent shake and then roared loudly at Kang Kai's handsome face. His spits splashed around at the speed of bullets.
"I don't want to hear useless excuses. If you can't tell me where to find Ti Xiaer Church, I will fight with you today."
Seeing Bahanger's fire-spewing eyes and the condensing battle qi, Kang Kai knew that the almost irrational dwarf in front of him was not joking, but he did not have any expression of fear. He just sighed lightly and slowly said:
"Although I don't know. But...I think I know someone who knows."

Dreams or Another World - Not a Zero (Update 09/19/21)
(Updated 09/19/21) Hello and welcome. If you made it this far and the book title sounds interesting, I'm hoping you'll read a few chapters. Here's a sample from chapter 1 of "Dreams or Another World - Not a Zero."Slowly starting to wake up, I become aware. It's like coming out of a fog.Head hurts.Body hurts.There's a conversation in the room. This isn't my bed. Someone is touching my arm. I crack my eyes to look. She doesn't notice. Is she praying for me? Her hands do feel good…do feel... Slipping back unconscious, my eyes slowly close. I didn't notice the soft green glow under Jenn’s hands.*******************"It does look like he saved them or at least stalled them long enough for us to get there." says the man dressed more like a park ranger than an officer of the law. "I did think he was part of it at first" he continues "but the evidence shows he wasn't there and they were certainly fighting on that back road where we found them""I don't care who he is." says a woman as she enters the room. "He saved and protected my Jenn. I will make sure there's not a mark or a scar on him before he leaves". As she continues the few steps over to the men speaking, even though dressed simply in common clothes, there is no doubt the race of elves is in her heritage. The grace and lines of her form. The elegance and lightness of her step. She glances at her daughter, still watching over the young man in the bed. "Do we know who he is yet?" she asks no one in particular."Not yet dear" a man in a white coat responds. A handsome middle-aged man. Fit, but not that of a fighter or ranger. "I asked Talon to bring another identification stone with him. I was hoping ours was just broke, but it's reading the same.""What do you think is wrong?" Talon asks."I'm thinking we just have to wait until he recovers. I have heard of cases where the stone didn't work. Powerful spells can hide or wipe a person clean. I doubt he's a spy or a criminal. Spells like that are just too high level if, they're used at all. My best guess is, there is just some disconnect with him being unconscious. When he wakes, we can ask him or use the stone again then."I find myself waking up in a hospital bed. The attending Doctor finds it odd that he cannot identify my class. An Officer says I’m a Hero for saving a girl from being kidnapped, but he’s asking too many questions for my liking. I know an accusing tone when I hear it. I don’t remember any of it and I need to find my way home.Author’s notes. Original work. First draft and update of chapters 1-16. Inspired by various fantasy games and books. Written with a focus on character development and interaction. Combat, progression, leveling, classes, but no numbers or stats. I’ll try to keep the language clean, PG-13, no smut. I’m in the US, writing in English. Almost fifty chapters are completed as I pen this introduction. I intend to complete this story or at least bring it to a proper ending. I have a destination in mind. I find as I write, doors and ideas open, while others close and are discarded. The tentative release schedule will be once a week. I'm new to creating. My apologies now while I learn. I have not settled on a book cover or artwork, still looking for something that fits. Registered & Protected #20VjeKDv2U6nynW6
