When Tata, the War God, lured all the monsters near Silverlight Village, the monsters were so densely packed that there was no space to dodge, leaving him only to be beaten to death and resurrected back in Silver City Square.
Tata truly lanted the loss of experience from this death, all that practice was in vain.
Then Tata noticed sothing amiss in the city. Just as he was puzzled, his phone buzzed with a ssage; it was an invite code for Alpha’s darknet. Tata imdiately logged in.
Alpha said, "You did a good job, the box has been successfully brought into the city."
Tata let out a sigh of relief, "But I don’t have 5000 coins to teleport back, what do I do?"
Alpha said, "Go report to the Animal Protection Association in Silver City imdiately. You’re a Druid and can heal; when the plague breaks out, use your healing technique to earn so money and gain a lot of reputation. Once your reputation is high enough, you can even get a position at the Animal Protection Association in Silver City."
Tata asked, "But I’ve noticed city patrols distributing cigarettes and being on high alert. This seems too complicated?"
Alpha snorted coldly, "Actually, the mont the box was unearthed by players from the wreckage of the airship, the plague had already secretly begun. Even if there’s a defense in the city, the hundreds of core team players in the China District are the vectors themselves. Their first action will be to return to Silverlight Village, and when that happens, Silverlight Village will inevitably explode as well!"
Tata was excited, "Then the whole village will be weakened, and the groups in Silver City will continue their siege?"
Alpha laughed coldly, "We’ll see if they can seize the opportunity amidst the plague."
Tata sighed, "It’s a pity that the main force of our Tata Team is not in Silver City."
Alpha scoffed, "But isn’t it enough not to let the Chinese team have an easy ti?"
"That’s true."
"Then, let the show begin..."
...
Silver City’s Sea God Temple.
Sariel used the Eye of Omniscience to nervously monitor the box’s movents while mobilizing patrols to encircle the warehouse, and overseeing the distribution of cigarettes citywide, all the while monitoring the movents of the Chinese players.
Then watching the rmaids. The rmaid was still playing cards with Hubble and Barara, laughing heartily.
Sariel indeed saw through it; the rmaid wasn’t actually good at playing cards, but the two Astrologers were very adept at letting her win six out of ten tis.
But the box was already in the city. Even if the rmaid has so depth, she should show so reaction, right?
Sariel couldn’t help but remind, "Lord of the Divine Throne, I think soone smuggled unidentified items into the city! What do the two Astrologers think?"
Hubble smiled faintly, "I can feel the Lord of the Divine Throne’s imnse confidence; it’s a strength that overcos all difficulties."
Barara chuckled, "The Lord of the Divine Throne is wise and mighty."
The rmaid laughed heartily, "My confidence cos from winning gas! If you didn’t let win, I wouldn’t have this confidence, so—Sage, do whatever you see fit."
Though it seed frivolous, Sariel felt much more at ease and imdiately ordered the forces to close in.
But just as that happened, the warehouse window shattered, and the Pulan team stord out like the wind, catching the patrols off guard.
At the sa ti, those Chinese players began dragging and holding back patrols by force, instantly turning into outlaws!
Sariel laughed in anger, "If you love turning red that much, then enjoy your ti in jail!"
The next mont, green smoke erged from the warehouse window; it was indeed the plague!
In that instant, the city-wide alarm blared:
——Silver Glory City Announcent: Warning! An unidentified plague has appeared in the city, a red alert is declared, teleportation arrays are shut down!
——Silver Glory City Announcent: All citizens, please light the distributed cigarettes to guard against the plague and return ho imdiately to quarantine for further preventative asures.
——Silver Glory City Announcent: Wanted! Pulan for bringing an unidentified plague into the city, constituting the cri of spreading the plague!
Sariel was both nervous and excited; it was happening!
...
anwhile, Chun, who was resting and waiting for midnight, was bewildered upon seeing the world announcent!
What’s going on? How did Pulan carry the plague?
His phone buzzed, it was Zhou Qing, "Brother Chun, green smoke is coming from the warehouse, the box isn’t treasure at all! It’s the plague!"
Chun was dumbfounded, "You an, our super team from the China District went 200 kiloters outside the city to scour the airship wreckage for three days for nothing?"
Zhou Qing felt helpless, "Yes, it feels like a trap tailored for us. Delaying the leveling quest progress for three days aside, fortunately, the box was sent into the city by an NPC, otherwise our main team would have been wanted and jailed by now. Unknown if Brother Chun’s NPC is alright?"
Since Pulan was commanded by the rmaid, Chun wasn’t too worried, "It’s fine, don’t worry, just keep an eye on the situation for now."
"Alright, I’ll report any updates to Brother Chun."
Chun was still very puzzled; if it was really just to delay leveling, convict, and imprison, then the setup was too grand, using the entire Silver City as a pawn! But if the plan was so vast, what’s the point of deploying siege monsters? It felt redundant...
Just then, midnight arrived.

...
Chun was eager to know how much the profit-sharing for the bread that went up to 300 each by players would be, only to have his heart race wildly and breath seize instantly!
How much?
1.1 million!! Plus 100,000 from the cigarette sales!!
Holy Shit! Yesterday was just an inco of 6,000, and today it was 1.2 million!! These cigarettes actually have two formulas. The rmaid had also used the previous anti-plague formula, so she was already prepared for anti-plague asures with cigarettes sold throughout the city?
No wonder it felt unreasonable for Silver City to gamble itself; it turns out that the Ten Lords orchestrated this to let her sell cigarettes?! Wow, this is brilliant~~~~ Also, I must say, doing nothing myself but providing a copyright formula to earn a 10% dividend is truly worthy of the Ten Lords’ ga. They just love "there are no eternal products, only eternal brands"! Hmm, not a bad philosophy, I appreciate!
Amidst the euphoria, Aileen reminded, "Darling, it’s ti to wake up and have lunch."
Ah, true, even if beaten paralyzed by Beelzebub, eating is a must.
Right, let’s take a look at the rankings first.
Still in 11th place!
Thankfully, I haven’t been knocked off. Chun sighed in relief, but couldn’t help but gain a closer understanding of the shalessness of the Ten Lords. Who knows how many brand dividends they have?
