Chapter 118: Ocean of Money
Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
Jordan sneered. He didn’t take these burly men in front of him seriously at all and was still holding William’s collar in one hand and standing still on the spot. He suddenly put his right leg forward and swept it, immediately kicking the six burly men in front of him far, far away. They then crashed on the ground after smashing through numerous poker tables.
Daniels’s pupils constricted. He couldn’t control himself any longer as he looked at everything in front of him in shock.
If Jordan had only sent one person flying away with a single kick, Daniels would find it reasonable, as that could be done easily by a strong person.
However, sending six six-foot-tall men flying with one kick and rendering them immobile was something beyond the abilities of an ordinary person!
Some of the henchmen who heard the commotion and hurried over were sent flying before they could even step close to Jordan.
Jordan looked as though he was taking a leisurely stroll, ignoring all the henchmen while walking along the way and dragging William, who seemed to be on the verge of peeing himself, to the elevator.
“Lucas, I’ll take this… person back with me.” Before leaving, Jordan didn’t forget to say goodbye to Lucas, and he almost called William a fool.
Lucas nodded indifferently.
When Jordan vanished in the elevator with William, Daniels and the surrounding crowd finally recovered from their shock
Daniels looked at Lucas with scruples and inquisitiveness. “Who are you?”
The young man with impressive combat skills is clearly this Lucas’s subordinate. He followed his instructions without any questions.
He was more like Lucas’s underling.
If an underling was already this terrifying, how frightening would Lucas be?
Lucas smiled indifferently. “Didn’t they already tell you? I’m just a live-in son-in-law.”

Lucas’s indifference made Daniels feel even more wary of him.
“Hey… your father-in-law borrowed money from us and hasn’t repaid it after more than ten days, but we only gave him a beating. That’s already showing him enough mercy. As long as you repay the money he owes with interest, I won’t hold it against you for injuring our men. How does that sound?”
Daniels’s words shocked everyone present.
The young man beside Lucas just now had injured more than ten burly henchmen of the Opulence and even caused a huge ruckus. Yet Daniels was willing to let go of it just like that.
“Don’t worry. We’ll talk things out one by one. I’ll pay you back what he owes,” Lucas said sneeringly.
Daniels could tell what Lucas was driving at. The money William owed would naturally be paid back, and likewise, Daniels would also have to give Lucas the explanation he wanted.
At the thought of this, Daniels couldn’t help but frown. Seems like this punk isn’t going to stop here!
Aston suddenly said, “Your father-in-law still owes me 380,000 dollars. Don’t forget.”
Lucas glanced at Aston. “Don’t worry. I’ll pay you every single cent.”
Although he did not know why Aston Brooke and Scarlet Wright appeared here, how they even became William’s debtor, and what their role was in the incident today, he knew clearly who to hold accountable and who to settle scores with.
Suddenly, the golden door swung open again, and a tall, gigantic, and burly man over two meters tall entered.
Many inhaled sharply and took a few steps back because the tall man was not to be trifled with.
If they were to provoke him, he could easily punch them dead!
With a solemn expression, Daniels looked at the man coming. He couldn’t recognize him, but he hoped that he wasn’t here to create trouble… Otherwise, Daniels wouldn’t be able to handle it alone.

To his surprise, after the burly man entered, he walked directly toward Lucas, bowed, said respectfully in front of everyone, “Mr. Gray, I’ve already prepared the money according to your instructions.”
Daniels’s pupils constricted again. Is this tall and burly man Lucas Gray’s underling too?
Lucas nodded and looked at Daniels again. “Have you thought about what explanation you’re going to give me?”
Daniels gritted his teeth. “Let’s compromise and give each other a way out instead of making things hard for each other. We’re not afraid of you. If things get out of hand, you’ll be at a disadvantage too! Since you’ve already brought the money, hurry up and pay it back!”
Lucas understood what he meant and nodded at Wade. “Bring the money.”
“Yes, Mr. Gray!” Wade acknowledged and grabbed his phone to make a call.
After Daniels heaved a sigh of relief and thought that Lucas had yielded, he suddenly heard a dull thud coming from above him, and then the entire floor started shaking violently.
“What’s going on?”
“Oh my god! Is it an earthquake?”
“Damn! Let’s hurry upstairs! If there’s really an earthquake, we’re going to be buried alive!”
“Hurry up and get out of the way! Let me go up first!”
All of a sudden, chaos broke out in the hall, and many people were fleeing to go upstairs. Some even took advantage of the chaos and shoved some chips into their arms.
Daniels was stunned as well, but he dared not force all these people in the hall to stay in place. After all, those who were here to play were all big shots, and if they were trapped in the basement, he wouldn’t be able to account for it.
Daniels hollered to get a few people to hurry up and check on the situation while having people escort these guests from the safety stairs quickly back to the lobby on the first floor.
However, when these people returned to the first floor and saw the lobby, everyone inhaled and widened their eyes in shock.
There was a truck in the middle of the spacious and luxurious lobby, blocking the entire exit.
The roll-up door of the truck opened, and a large pile of countless coins began to pour out from the truck.
The entire lobby turned into an ocean of glittering coins!

Mordheim: Servants of The Damned (A Warhammer Fantasy Fiction)
“The Great Library,” Stated the stranger with a pause. “You know of it?”“Of course I do. In the Merchant’s Quarter?”“Yes, in the Merchant’s Quarter. I have gathered that there is an… artefact of importance within its walls.” Slowly, the figure produced a rusted key from the furls of his robes and held it in a black-gloved hand. “This opens the door to its chambers. It is the grimoire of Gunnar von Krugenheim, and I believe that it would serve better in the world than locked away in a dusty room.” Behind the cursed walls of Mordheim, warbands and gangs of all stripes are embattled in constant wars for resources and power. The cursed city attracts throngs in the thousands, searching for treasures, artefacts, power, and sometimes all three. The Cult of the Hidden Brethren is no exception, and when an opportunity to extend their reach is discovered, the cultists are eager to take the opportunity. However, not all is set in stone, and soon the cultists discover that the lure of power alone may not be enough to give them the drive required to see their quest done... --- Mordheim: Servants of the Damned is a fanfiction set in the world of Warhammer Fantasy, which is not owned by me but by the company Games Workshop. I of course, lay claim to nothing in this story but the characters I have created, and the core events of the story itself. This is my first true foray into fantasy writing, let alone Warhammer Fantasy, therefore any feedback is welcome. (It should be noted as well, the cover art is merely an artwork I found online and is not mine, therefore I do not lay claim to that either.)
