Chapter 1534: Are You A Brewer With A Pharmacist Background?

"Tell me everything you know truthfully," Mag told Hannah solemnly.

"Then, that would be a very long story. According to what I know, my grandpa was hung up and beaten for an entire day and night by my great grandpa because he wet the bed…"

"Stop, stop, stop… I am talking about the intel on Ferdinand and the dungeon that holds him." Mag held his forehead as he felt a headache.

"Oh." Hannah pondered seriously for a while before saying, "Ferdinand is 23 years old this year. He looks rather adorable, and resembles his sister. He isn't as tall and bulky like normal orcs. He looks very lean, and has a pair of pinkish ears." Hannah swept her hair aside to reveal a pair of white beast ears underneath her hair as she perplexedly said, "Didn't they say only the royal females will have pinkish ears? See, even mine are white. His are actually pink."

"Mm-hmm." Mag nodded. This was basically in line with what he knew. He continued, "What about the dungeon?"

"The dungeon is situated right underneath the northern inner city wall. The entrance is at the 38th brick of the northern city wall. There are no guards on the exterior, but there are always four guards standing watch at all times inside.

"Apparently, this is a new secret dungeon that the new chief got his trusted subordinates to build on the night that he attacked the inner city. All those who are imprisoned there are the former chief's important relatives and loyal subordinates. Besides Ferdinand, his famously loving uncle and auntie are also held there," Hannah replied.

"Thank you very much for the information." Mag nodded. To obtain such difficult information in such minute detail showed that Hannah was indeed very talented as an informant.

"Then, when will we be taking action?" Hannah still continued to ask relentlessly.

"We will send special people to investigate the actual situation. The specific rescue plan and time are still not—"

Boom!

Before Mag could finish speaking, a loud bang suddenly sounded in the inner city. A fiery red flame rose upward after that, accompanied by heated battling sounds.

"Did those fools really decide to act on their plans?" Hannah looked toward the inner city. She didn't look very surprised at all.

"What plans and act?" Mag was a little stunned. Judging from the magic waves that just came over, it should be a magic done by at least one 9th-tier fire magic caster, which meant Camilla was not involved.

"They're the former chief's followers. Although Gary has been eradicating the orcs that are loyal to the former chief, some of them still managed to go into hiding. Furthermore, Gary has already let out the news that Ferdinand will be executed at tomorrow's conferring ceremony, which will end all the hopes and expectations for the former chief's followers. Hence, these people decided to break Ferdinand out and rescue him the night before." Hannah shrugged. "I heard about this two days ago from an old man. I didn't think they were serious."

"You should have mentioned such important information first." Mag frowned. Judging from the magic waves and battling sounds coming from the inner city, there should be quite a number of orcs taking part in this rescue mission. They most probably were the last batch of the former chief's loyal followers.

"I thought they were just talking about it casually. I didn't expect they would create such a big hoo-ha," Hannah said innocently.

Mag looked toward the inner city, and thought hard with furrowed brows before turning around to ask Hannah, "Are you providing the spirits and wines for tomorrow's banquet?"

"Yes. The spirits and wines specially supplied for the banquet are already prepared in the warehouse. Someone will be here to get them tomorrow morning." Hannah nodded.

"Is there a way to make the people who drink your alcohol get drunk easier or lower their power?"

After thinking for a while, Hannah answered, "If you want them to get drunk faster, I could add in a little confounding drug. While adding to the texture of the alcohol, it would get a normal person drunk with just one cup at the same time. Even a 10th-tier magic caster can't drink more than five cups of it. As for a potion that will lower one's power, among the few potions that I have researched and came up with currently, only the magical activity lowering drug can lower a magic caster's power obviously. However, it doesn't affect the orcs who depend on their strength."

"Are you a brewer with a pharmacist background?" Mag looked at Hannah with suspicion. Talkative water, a confounding drug, magical activity lowering drug… Were these things that a brewer should know?

"I researched and came up with all these things when I was bored while brewing the spirits and wines. After all, brewing is really very boring after a while." Hannah shrugged.

"In this case, add in a little of confounding drug into all the spirits and wines for the banquet, and add in a little of magical activity lowering drug for the spirits and wines intended for the main table," Mag instructed Hannah. He flicked a glance toward the inner city before saying, "We will postpone the mission of learning how to brew rum. I have to go and check out the situation in the inner city now."

"It only takes me 10 minutes to add in the drugs. Can you please bring me along to check out the situation in the inner city? I know the inner city very well too," Hannah said expectantly.

"No. It's very dangerous in the inner city now." Mag shook his head. He solemnly said to Hannah, "Comrade Old Sim, being a good informant, what is the first rule?"

Hannah's expression became solemn as she answered, "Obey the organization's orders at all times!"

"Very good. Execute your order!" Mag turned and walked to the door.

"Yes!" Hannah replied to Mag's retreating back with an excited glow in her eyes. "Yes, yes, yes. It's this feeling! I like this feeling where I'm part of the organization, and have to follow orders! I'm so excited!!"

"We already grasped the basic situation now. I just wonder if Ferdinand has been transferred in the past two days. Moreover, Gary decided to let out the news in advance, so most probably he is trying to catch all the remaining forces who oppose him on the night before the conferring ceremony," Mag said to Irina, who landed softly next to him, after leaving Hannah's small courtyard. "These orcs are most likely the last batch of orcs loyal to the former chief. If they all perish, then Connie and Ferdinand will have a very hard time at reestablishing a stable and strong political power."

"All these things are not important." Irina looked into Mag's eyes quizzically. "Say it. When did you join the Gray Temple? Furthermore, you seem to be doing very well. Did you come clean with Rolan about your identity?"

"My relationship with Gray Temple could be considered as a partnership. I only have an unofficial position, so I didn't join them formally. They increased my level of authority at the last minute before I came to the Falk Tribe." Mag shook his head. "As for my identity, I think Rolan and Michael are already suspecting me, but since they decided to play along, then we don't have to tell them the truth ourselves. Anyway, this will make things easier for all of us."

"These two old wily foxes. They're indeed not easily fooled." Irina pursed her lips. Her gaze landed on the inner city, and an expectant smile slowly appeared on her face. "If we want to save these fellows, then naturally we'll have to create something even bigger."
