Chapter 873

(Unedited)

…

The Stonebreaker family in the dwarven kingdom holds the most power and control in the kingdom and it has suppressed most of the noble families within. So the nobles have a deep resentment towards them but could not make their move because of the king\'s strength.

The politics within the kingdom is stable on the surface, but many knew of the turmoil happening underneath. But most of the dwarves are simple being who likes to craft things and enjoy the simple pleasures of life. They did not want to bother with politics and the views of the nobles.

Hence the throne is uncontested until now.

The king carefully listens to the report of the general and the plan to capture the human and take the technology for themselves.

Everything looks well thought of that the king and some of the high minister jus listen to the general and their plan.

After the emergency meeting ended, Hoodwig was called by the king.

The commanders and generals who pass by him, showed sneers on their faces while looking at Hoodwig. But the dwarf did not mind them, he was too worried about the partnership with the humans and those fools\' plan that he wanted to persuade the king.

…

Inside the private study room of the king

"Your majesty… we should not be impulsive and attack that human without any prior investigation."

"Hoodwig my old friend… This matter… Just let the soldiers handle it. I think they are capable enough."

"But your majesty…"

The king just raised his hand to stop his friend.

"We\'ve been friends for a long time and I already know of your concern. But… remember, the human is still an outsider and we must on our own people. I just could not put my trust in an outsider right now especially towards humans… I have seen the things he could offer, and I know of their worth, but… the thoughts of my people come first…" the king stubbornly said.

Hoodwig could not help but give a deep sigh. He wanted to stop this, but this is the best he could do. The king has already made up his mind and it seems that he would support the soldiers. With a deep bow, Hoodwig left the private study room.

Upon leaving, the space beside the king suddenly rippled. Then a small figure that looks like a half-elf and half-dwarf spears. His clothes are all black and only his head with fair white skin is exposed.

"Your majesty…" the figure bowed and then whispered something in the king\'s ears.

The king nodded his head and then leaned forward on his seat. He put together his hands and each of his fingers meets each other in a form of contemplation.

"I can\'t wait what would happen next… Hehe…" the king muttered as the entire room was enveloped with a chilling aura.

…

Meanwhile, inside the prison, Loom who was supposed to be infected and is lying on the ground suddenly stood up. The little squirrel is in front of her and sitting in a relaxed position on the hay-covered prison ground.

Loom carefully fixed the intercom on her ears and then press on it.

"Master Shin, what… what is happening?" she said in a low voice.

\'It seems that we have fallen into a conspiracy. Don\'t worry about your mother. She is safe with me… Now, I want you to follow what I am going to say…\'

Shin Jiao gave a couple of instructions to Loom as she nodded her head in agreement. Although she is not clear what is really going on in the dwarven kingdom, yet she did not care. All she ever wanted is her mother\'s safety and everything else is trivial.

On the other hand, Shin Jiao and Warkita are inside a dilapidated house. Warkita is already able to move, though still weak, but she is already fine after the treatment.

Right now, she is wearing a special suit that covers her whole body as she still emits some of the bacteria being extracted by her pores. The suit is a simple hazmat suit that would absorb the poison exiting her body.

"We have to stay here until you are fully able to free yourself of the poison from your body." Shin Jiao said while checking her pulse.

"Until when? I\'m worried about my daughter." She said while helplessly lying on the wooden bed.

"Don\'t worry about Loom. I have already given her some instruction." Shin Jiao assured her.

Warkita did not say anything and just kept her silence.

She turns her attention to the side and then suddenly thought of how she was poisoned. She was deeply hurt by what Holdorf has done to her. She has been suspecting Holdorf for a long while now because of how he sometimes would look at Loom.

She has deemed it as an affection of an uncle to his niece. However, deep inside of her, she knew that it was different.

But what baffled her is the reason why a slow-acting poison? She truly could not understand that part situation.

Why kill her? He could have told her what he wanted, but no. He would rather scheme and kill her just to get Loom. That part is hard for her to understand.

"Sigh… It is really hard to understand a person\'s heart," she muttered.

Shin Jiao on the side just showed a faint smile. He is too familiar with that thought.

The woman he loves chose to be without him for eternity. He has experienced friends turning their backs on him for selfish reasons. So he could empathize with Warkita and her feelings right now.

As the two stayed inside the house, Shin Jiao could see outside the ruckus that is happening. The soldiers seem to be checking every house in the city.

But since the dilapidated house is covered with a camouflage array, all the soldiers could see is an empty broken house.

He watches as the soldiers passed by them.

Right at this moment, Shin Jiao suddenly saw 2 dwarven kids walking towards the dilapidated house. He squinted upon seeing the kids who seem to be sneaking around.

They seem to hide from the soldiers or hide and seek while watching the soldiers on the street.

He knows that if these children are found then there is a possibility that the house and its array would also be discovered.

The camouflage array is a simple array that would hide their presence or change its surrounding to conform with what the array master want it to project. However, there are also many downsides to the camouflage array.

One of them is the ability of the array to fully change its surroundings. Unlike trapping camouflage arrays that could disorient and change the perception of trapped, camouflage arrays are on for visual changes.

Although it has its weakness, camouflage arrays are easy to set up. Shi Jiao right now is even using an array disk to set the camouflage array up. Simple, fast, and easy, unlike trapping camouflage arrays which would take time to set up.

So while looking at the two children, Shin Jiao could not help but feel a bit anxious. Right at this moment, he does not want to cause too much of a ruckus while his plan is yet to blow in fruition.

He could already tell that his plan has already spread throughout the soldiers and even some of the citizens in the dwarven kingdom is also affected by it.

They wanted to use a biological weapon to scare their own people and then extend an olive branch to help them to push the blame to the human. If this is their plan, then why doesn\'t he play along with them? This time, he would use their own tricks against them. Let\'s see who would suffer the consequences of their own actions.

Seeing that the children are still approaching, Shin Jiao did not have a choice but to act immediately before they could be discovered.

On the other hand, a dwarven soldier suddenly turns his attention towards the side and then saw the two sneaking kids. He did not make his move and just watched the two who think they are unnoticed by the soldiers on the street.

Suddenly the two kids darted towards the dilapidated house at their fastest speed. They did not want to be caught by the soldiers as they knew what would happen to them if the soldiers catch them.

According to their parents, the soldiers would whip them many times, burn their skin, and then kick them out of the city.

The children knew that outside of the city there are monsters lurking in the darkness. The way their parents describe the cruelty of the soldiers made the children truly afraid of them.

And so, the two who wanted to go home did not think twice and immediately ran to the dilapidated house.

"Little brother, run faster, we are almost home." The one which looks older said while turning his attention to the one following behind him.

However, when he turns around, his expression immediately changed.
