Making such products didn't take long, and the end result was indeed quite shocking. No one, be it in her faction or in the opposing faction, no one couldn't prevent expressing their admiration towards these marvellous products.
She felt like she was getting control over the entire family back. And just before she'd celebrate such an important victory, she got the news about the movements of most of the forces in the city against William.
[Don't tell me you are in the market!] The first thing she did was to take out William's Message Paper and send this urgent message over.
"I'm there right now. Why? Do you need something from here?" not realising that a disaster was approaching him, William responded in such a carefree way.
[Run!] but the next thing that he heard was for her urgent and scared scream, [Lots of dark gold masters, even at the pinnacle, are heading towards you right now! Run! Run for your life!]
"Sh*t! Where are they now?"
"Consider them at your doorsteps! No time for that, just run!"
William realised at last how bad his situation was. He could fight early-stage dark gold masters, but not those at high stage and at the pinnacle.
He didn't even think about asking for help from her. From the sheer number of forces moving against him, he knew this was a sizable force that no one could stop.
And listening to her advice wasn't going to help at all. If they were on the move, then they were already surrounding this place. Running away wouldn't help, and that was why he thought about something different.
"There is just one way to save the day," William didn't hesitate for one second. He grabbed the goods he just bought. Stored them in his rings, paid lots of crystals without even counting any, turned towards one direction, and started to run towards it. He was running like his life depended entirely on this. And it truly was.
Just less than a minute, he spotted many shadows moving fast in the far distance. They seemed to have mistaken his intentions, seemingly moving to surround the entire market exits, fearing he might run away from here. But that wasn't what he really intended to do.
In fact, he went directly towards the depths of this place. As he ran there, these shadows started to close in the net, getting closer to him, before they finally reached the heart of the market.
"What are you talking about? He simply vanished in thin air?!!" away from here, and in a balcony of the main building of the Vancouf family at the portal area, Richard stood by Rick's side, while watching the face of Larry getting red out of rage.
"What happened?" Richard calmly asked, acting more as a seasoned leader than a puppet.
"They surrounded the entire market, and he went to the heart of it. But when they went there, looked for him, they found no trace of that kid anywhere at all!" Larry was more enraged than surprised by this. He seemed to think that the teams he sent were simply incompetent.
"Hmm…" Richard looked at Rick, and the latter shrugged as if he was saying: I warned you.
"If not for those forces to send their teams… Like this we couldn't control many places… He must have made a run through one of the areas they guarded," Larry was now throwing the blame over the other forces who rushed to the market to get a bite at William.
"No, he didn't run away using this way," Richard's eyes shone brightly before turning towards Larry, "the centre of the market has that merchant group's place, the one that William used before to access the Lost City, right?"
"No way! Do you mean…" Larry looked in disbelief towards Richard, and the latter simply nodded.
"If it was me, then this would be the safest place I'll select to hide at," Richard smiled, "we got ourselves an interesting foe indeed. He is now inside the Lost City, without any way to run. Just send the teams to the Lost City and inform our people there to go and catch him."
eαglesnᴏνel "What if…"
"No, he needs access to leave the city. The doors at the corridor won't open from inside. He has no way to get out of there now. And about our side, to open that door for him, he has to wait for Lara to do it."
"Deal with her then," Rick finally said, "make sure she won't intervene."
"Leave her to me," Richard evilly smirked, while Larry started to relay orders. From the side, Rick watched all this while feeling more excited about getting his revenge over William.
In fact, his master didn't ask him to kill William here. His orders were strictly the opposite. His master wanted to grab William and torture him a little, to vent his deep hatred out first.
Rick wanted to impress his new master. But in front of the enemy who made him suffer all this, he couldn't control himself. Aas for the blame, if his master wanted to blame anyone, then Rick got Richard as the perfect scapegoat for him. So, he remained silently watching.
Larry relayed the orders, not only to the family's teams, but also to other forces teams. He wanted to organise their efforts this time, to not end up antagonising and hindering each other, giving William a chance to escape again.
As for Richard, he went out, looking for Lara to keep her busy.
"Just hang in there, I'm coming right now to get you out!"
Inside her room, Lara received the distressing news from William. She was surprised by his sharp wits and the brilliant solution he thought about.
Instead of clashing head on with all the scary forces coming at him, William instead selected a very unexpected route of escape. When she heard about where he went, she couldn't help but get overwhelmed with excitement. She even laughed for a minute or so, imagining the despicable faces of different forces' leaders when they'd get the news.
