"Master… This…" thanks to the violent explosions and rumbles, Thomas had to stop what he was doing. He turned to William, and the latter just motioned for him to continue.

"It's alright," William paused, "just keep doing your part, and leave the rest to me."

"Ok," Thomas didn't know what was going on here, but as long as William said it was alright, then it was.

He returned to using his technique, drawing what he was seeing, while William started a wide spree attack over the traps around.

From this moment onward, it was all deadly explosions and rumblings. And that made the entire audience outside excited, with few getting gloomy looks on their faces.

"He is still alive!" one of those standing outside couldn't help but murmur in low tone.

"It seems he knows what he is doing," another one next to him said, and three more nodded their heads.

"If that is true, then we shall kiss goodbye to all of our money," a nearby lady said in a slightly enraged tone.

"Who told you to bid on the wrong choice? Hahaha! You should have listened to me and placed your bids over this kid."

"Ben… You are just as despicable as this kid!" the six of them turned and looked at one old looking man, one with white hair and beard, the same dude William met before at the Lockheart impact.

"I just met him," Ben kept laughing, "and you didn't. So you should have listened to me."

"At least it's not all lost money," one of this group from the Lockheart impact said, "you will get more gains than all our losses, hahaha!"

"Who said I'm going to give you anything?" Ben's face changed at this moment. He didn't fear anyone else at the Lockheart impact, except for this dude who just spoke.

"If I said it's the impact's gains, then it is," that dude's eyes shone fiercely in bright purple light, making even Ben's body faintly tremble.

"Aside from that," that dude shifted his eyes away from Ben, returning to look at the distant territory that kept shaking and issuing such scary explosive sounds, "it seems you got a fine gem at last."

"Tsk! That kid is as sly as a real fox!"

"What does that even mean?" the lady in the group asked, while others looked at Ben in a weird way.

"Don't tell me you didn't rope him in!" that dude of purple eyes turned at Ben, and this time he looked much scarier than before.

"It's not my fault! That kid has a master on his back, a hellish mysterious lady that made him have such weird abilities."

"Interesting," the purple eyed leader of the impact shifted his eyes away from Ben after sizing him up and down twice, "at least he is free to get recruited."

"Don't…"

"What?" That dude didn't even turn to Ben anymore, while on his face a vicious smile appeared, "if you got the ability, try and fight me on him."

"..."

Ben wanted to argue and fight back, but this dude was someone he'd never try to even arouse his rage or something.

"And…" just when Ben sighed inwardly, accepting the fact that he lost William, and deciding to drop the plans he got to use William's team again to rope this kid, that leader added in an icy tone, "I want everything you know about this dude provided to me at once. Or else…"

"Fine," and when Ben heard this tone and felt the scary aura of this dude, he knew his chances were now blown in the wind.

William was busy dealing with the traps inside his territory. Even if he got what it took to deactivate and ruin every single trap there, it still cost him lots of spirit power.

After all, there were tons of traps here, and this territory was vast to begin with. So it was normal that after ten hours of diligent work, he and Thomas didn't clear more than fifteen percent of the entire territory!

"Let's take a break," William already got a droplet of elixir to replenish his spirit power. He wasn't lacking in spirit power, neither did Thomas. But the two were already hungry and exhausted.

Thomas was mentally exhausted more than William. He kept working and drawing, memorising the stars and design he spotted, while not taking a single moment of rest.

"I can keep doing this for a little more."

"It's not a life and death fight," William rolled his eyes, "besides, it'll look bad if we cleared all this in a single day! Let's go, we deserve to eat, and even have a nice nap."

"..."

Thomas felt William was joking with him. But when they went out there, and watched his master speak with Remy and others from the Refos group about going to sleep a little and take a rest, he knew William wasn't.

"I'm getting more impressed by your mindset," Remy chuckled as she realised what William tried to do. She even winked to him, before assigning a group of dark gold guards to accompany him and Thomas.

Since the two exitted the territory, they saw how crazy the situation outside was. People were fighting among each other to stand up front, as if they feared missing a great chance or something.

William saw all this and couldn't help but inwardly grin. The situation here just needed more fuel and it'd literally explode!

"Hahahaha, more people are coming, hahahaha!" and just as they passed through the dense layers of people around the territory, William couldn't help but laugh while watching the main and wide street being crowded as well.

He walked for close to half an hour, and yet people were still flooding the direction of his territory.

"Are we going to rest? For real?!" Thomas was still unable to absorb what his master was planning to do. Even till now, he thought at any moment, William would just turn around and ask for him to return back to the territory and continue working.

"Why not?" William shrugged, "we worked hard and deserve a bit of rest."

"But… We didn't bring Trevor with us!"

"That dude has to work for his living," William laughed, as he intentionally left Trevor to do the propaganda work.
