Chapter 1169: Reaction

The fruits in Sam’s hands made him feel surprised and excited at the same time, he looked at Noah and was about to ask something.

"Nope, I am not telling you anything regarding this. Even if you have a single clue, I am afraid you would remake it."

Sam was confused and said.

"Then why bother giving me these fruits? These are also a clue you know."

"Of course, I know. I just want to see you struggle a bit trying to make these but to no avail. That would be a great sight to see."

"What have I ever done to you?" Sam sighed and put the fruits away.

"Nothing." She just said and went back into the inn, Kumar shrugged at Sam and left after her. Sam could almost see smugness dripping out of his face.

He really doesn’t understand what is wrong with the rest of the players. Every single one of them could only think of ways to trouble him.

But when he looked at the fruits in his hand, he couldn’t help but feel a bit excited about taking on this challenge. He threw them into the storage and went back into the room after removing the formations.

The backyard looked like nothing happened here at all.

They are now waiting for the results.

Meanwhile, the Inner Disciple, who is the person in charge is looking at the withered fields hysterically.

He doesn’t know what to do. He just kept on yelling at the farmers and other people in charge to do something and find out what happened.

It took over an hour for him to calm down and he also realized that his life is at the stake and what the consequences should be and what his first action should be.

He immediately called the town administrators including the guards responsible for the safety and said.

"I want the whole town to be on lockdown. No one should be able to get out of the town, irrespective of their status, relations, and the money they had. The town should be on lockdown. And activate the communication jamming formation. No one should be able to contact anyone outside the city from within.

No one should be able to get even a single message out through other means of communication.

We and the rest of the world should have any contact whatsoever for the time being until I ordered otherwise."

Everyone was stunned. They didn’t expect that the young man who recently came here would have such absurd orders. They wanted to ask what is wrong, but when they looked at his cold gaze, they didn’t want to and just followed orders.

Anyway, if anything happens, the responsibility also falls on this young man. All they have to do is follow orders as they were supposed to do.

The personal attendant bowed slightly with a smile and said.

"It is a simple young master. All you have to do is salvage a bit of loss and claim that you apprehended the culprit in the middle of sabotaging your crops."

"Salvage a bit of loss? I don’t have anything left but withered herb stalks. What can I do with that?"

"Of course, you can do something. What if instead of coming for the main farm, the attacker came at the whole town? The herbs of the other people will also be destroyed and while you are investigating the issue, you found the traces of the attack on the main farm. You managed to stop it by slightly losing some herbs and also the herbs going down in their quality a bit.

But you would still be the person who managed to stop such a large-scale evil scheme of the Fiend tribe from succeeding and even caught the culprit.

Since the guards don’t bother with outing you on this, all you have to do is erase the evidence after the deed is done with their help and making this story sound completely legitimate."

The Inner disciple started thinking rapidly and the more thought, the more this idea made sense.

All he has to do is steal all the produce from other private farms in the town and claim that it is his produce and replace the product with withered stalks overnight while the farm owners are busy with something important without anyone guarding anything.

Then, he would ’catch’ the culprit and secure his position.

He immediately ran after the guards and met with the guard captain who is the person that threatened him earlier.

"I have a task for you. Go and capture Red."

"Red, the guy that operates the stealing and banditry in the surroundings?"

"Yes, capture him and bring him back. He is the culprit of this incident."

The Inner disciple said with a meaningful smile.

The guard captain looked at him disdainfully as he understood what he is planning, but he didn’t care too much about how he did and what he did as long as he lived up to his expectations. Only results matter.

But he still asked.

"Isn’t he someone who pays you the commission on time? If you turn on him, the situation with others will not be good."

He advised kindly for the young lady’s sake.

"What do you mean turning on him? He is the one who took bribes from the fiend tribe and tried to destroy the fields here. We are only catching him in action. Do not forget that."

With that, the inner disciple left without caring what the guard thought.Ñøv€l--ß1n hosted the premiere release of this chapter.
