The Truth of Magic

Chapter 532: The Power of the Lord

Seeing this scene, the old man standing facing Zhao Xu panted heavily, trying to calm himself down in this way.

He looked at the patrol team beside him with rescue eyes, and found that the other party was somewhat panicked.

In an instant, he realized that if this dragged on, the whole situation might be under the control of this mysterious man. At that time, more small town patrols would intervene, and he would not be able to cover it up.

Immediately after the old man winked at the two strong men behind Zhao Xu, he shouted, "You wanderer who has mastered one or two tricks, how dare you pretend to be a noble mage?"

With the start of the construction of the Mage Association resident in Falling Star Town, whether it is the huge investment in financial resources and manpower, or watching that place gradually become another center point outside the mining area, the residents have basically seen it. The in-depth influence of the "Mage Association".

In other words, let them start to realize that "Mage" is not just the lame character of the player who can only throw a spell or two a day.

The drunkard in the tavern who can't pay is a soldier, and the commander who is far away in the capital is also a soldier, which is very different.

And after the old man yelled this sentence, he grabbed the four corners of the tablecloth on the floor cursingly, and didn't care about the loss of the liquid that leaked from the broken bottles, just grabbed it on his back and prepared to leave.

At that time, the old man's internal response took out a dagger on the spot, and said quietly to Zhao Xu, "If you are interested, don't cause trouble."

At the same time, he swung his dagger and stabbed forward, trying to touch Zhao Xu's waist.

It is where the kidneys of men are located. Whoever gets stabbed will have a hard time for the rest of his life.

The other opened his arms, ready to strangle Zhao Xu and tell him to stop talking nonsense.

Zhao Xu saw that several people were still trying to press the lid of the boiling kettle lamely, and didn't care that they would burn their hands.

He said in a weak voice that only the two strong men behind him could hear, "Although I am a lord, it does not mean that I can kill and seize this territory."

"But it's not something you can offend."

As he spoke, Zhao Xu went straight and bumped into the man carrying the dagger. This reaction almost startled him, and he thought it was some kind of reverse touch.

But in the next second, his face instantly turned pale.

He saw the dagger in his hand just like this, the sharp point that had been sharpened day and night since he got it, unexpectedly curled through the void.

Force field armor!

An ability that only official mages possess!

The other party will definitely not be the kind of homeless person who can only use tricks!

"ah!"

At this time, another strong man who was trying to tighten Zhao Xu's grip suddenly realized that he had pinched the arms of countless travelers with great confidence, and was just caught by this mysterious man.

like a statue.

"Zi la."

The next moment, the sound of bone cracking came.

"Don't always rely on your strength to bully people, it's just that you haven't met a stronger existence."

At this moment, Zhao Xu, whose strength surpassed that of ordinary ancient golden dragons, also possessed a kind of "chicken soup" qualification.

It's just that before he finished talking, the two patrolling members fell down inexplicably when they saw two strong men trying to control Zhao Xu.

Not even the mysterious radiance that represented magic just now.

"Stop, lie on the ground, raise your hands, and hold your head." The patrol team leader suddenly shouted nervously, saying words that players in the small town are not likely to listen to.

"biu—" At the same time, his team members blew their whistles for help.

Justification is one thing, arrests and patrol conflicts are quite another.

Even makes sense and doesn't make sense.

And the old man who had withdrawn from three or four positions also watched this scene with satisfaction, and realized that his idea had come true, thanks to the young man's cooperation.

He has to teach his opponents a lesson that sometimes fists aren't everything.

There are also adventurers among the crowds watching around, and the old fritters who have been wandering around for many years have seen the internal cause of this, and they also taught their teammates how to deal with such a situation by the way.

"In the wild, we naturally took out our knives and hacked, but in the city, you have to abide by the rules of the city. Even if you are a chaotic and evil villain, you have to act in this invisible order, and you can even take advantage of it. "

"Is it possible that he should be caught without a fight?"

"It will make you lose a piece of meat? We can still walk on this land, and Arthur's brilliance of justice has never disappeared. When there are more people, you can just explain the truth. This town of Falling Star is still Under the Northern League. Why else would the old liar run away?"

"But it's too embarrassing."

"That's okay. If you have the ability to crush the strong men in this small town, then you can play with you naturally. But next, you will deal with the strong men from the big city, and even if you beat them again, it will be from the capital city of Olu the strong."

Speaking of this, the senior adventurer saw that he had already attracted the attention of the surroundings, and explained with satisfaction: "At that time, your right or wrong will be a trivial matter. If you slap the alliance in the face, that will be a major matter. "

"Isn't it?" The female adventurer beside him couldn't understand, "Is the alliance so free?"

"Naive, it's because everyone is very busy, so the first stabbing head that jumps out will be resolutely counterattacked, otherwise they will all run away to die in the future. After this man makes a big fuss, unless he can't find out where he came from, he will It is difficult to appear in the league openly."

"Don't listen to his nonsense." The captain of this team couldn't see it, "there are many enemies that the alliance has not solved, and the situation he said is only caused by the two sides getting angry. It is more likely that this man defeated The patrol team, and then the town's high-level executives came forward to settle it, or he couldn't break out of the siege."

"At that time, the sky will be high and the bird will be broad. Who knows the identity of the other party. So it is true that you should hone your own strength. If you are strong, you will have this kind of leeway."

Seeing his captain's rebuttal, the forty-year-old adventurer who was used to wind and waves refused to accept, "Chicken, this is the captain who still looks at things in the old way."

"At this time and at that time, if our Falling Star Town is an ordinary town, then naturally this method will be no problem. Otherwise, there will not be so many unsolved cases in the world. But the current Falling Star Town, but the magic A miraculous place where light descends."

"The town that has been slapped in the face, as long as we ask for help from our nominal 'lord', the interests of the town are the most important, and the opponent, as a powerful four-ring mage, will naturally take action. Relying on the spells of the mages, you can still Where did you escape to?"

After more than half a month of hearing and seeing, the new adventurer's expression became tangled.

She already understood that the "freezing ray" that barely extinguished the fire used by the player mages, or the "stunning technique" that made people dizzy for a while, were not the "true strength" of the mages.

"This is the frightening thing about the integration of mages and violent classes. Haven't you noticed that those hooligans in the town have been more cautious recently?" The 40-year-old adventurer touched his baby He must have a shiny mustache, "Master Mage staying on the wooden tower in that resident has a 'biological location' that can be tracked."

"Then what should I do?" The young girl adventurer was also a little sad.

She didn't expect that an adventurer who couldn't see the counterfeit medicine and made a noise, even if it had been proved, would have no good fruit.

"Well, the best result is that he has something to do with the officials of this small town."

"As long as you are the face of this town, others will naturally protect you."

On the other hand, the captain said angrily: "Don't listen to what he said in a cloud, it's just recruiting."

At the same time, the players next to him watched the scene with great interest, thinking about the right time for them to intervene.

"Captain, it looks like this is a real mage, do you want to recruit him?" A half-armored soldier said in a low voice.

"Observe and observe." The soldier known as the captain is actually a woman, but she still has a disfiguring scar on her chin. There is no chance of bargaining.”

"Hey, I didn't expect that we would have the opportunity to see this kind of conflict drama when we passed by Falling Star Town." The rogue who was also training his skills with a sharp unsupported blade said with satisfaction, "Maybe our Fifth Blight can add more a member."

Everyone present did not pay much attention to the mysterious man in front of them.

With the sound of the whistle, several nearby patrolling teams slowly came to support them.

Compared with other impoverished squads, the patrol members in Falling Star Town have all started to wear standard inlaid leather armor.

It will not affect their mobility too much, and it can provide enough defense.

"Put down your weapons and explain to them," said a spectator who couldn't see.

"What's going on?" The patrol captain in the nearby area scolded, and the members who had confronted Zhao Xu at the beginning immediately leaned over and whispered in his ear.

Following a detailed description, the patrol captain Jeff raised his brows a little, but looked more seriously at the mysterious man in front of him.

Although Zhao Xu was wearing a robe, the gold content of the robe has dropped a lot as the robe has been overwhelmed by player mages.

Besides, the "Zhong Xia" in Falling Star Town is a player mage, even if the person in front of him wearing a robe is a real mage, the interests of both sides may not necessarily be the same.

Especially since there will be big people coming to the town today, he doesn't want troubles to arise.

After some consideration, Jeff has already considered the benefits and losses of the whole process.

Through the material of the robe, he realized that it might not be a fake clothing.

But he wasn't that worried.

If the man in front of him is really a sorcerer who has surpassed the third ring and belongs to that kind of "noble person", he would have already acted arrogantly, or he would not be so poor that he can't even afford a servant.

The situation should still be within his controllable range.

He'd better not ask each other.

Sometimes, if he doesn't know or confirm, he doesn't need to take "corresponding" measures.

So the patrol captain glanced at his subordinates angrily, and said to Zhao Xu, "Since you have nothing to lose, then go away."

"As expected." This sentence suddenly came out of the crowd.

Having lived at the bottom, I understand that in many cases, the fact that liars are able to deceive passers-by openly on a piece of land means that they have a backer behind them.

Really provoked the other party to be reported to the police, and these backers behind the scenes could also lick their faces, hit 50 boards each, and dismiss both parties without causing any real losses.

There is no basic detention, so that these scammers can save time and hurry to find the next lamb to slaughter.

"They all guessed wrong." The senior adventurer shook his head, "It's not possible, that Midsummer lord has only been here for less than a month, and let the entire Falling Star Town He Qinghaiyan? I suspect that something is wrong. It’s not good for the other party to see that this is a real mage.”

But Zhao Xu couldn't help laughing and said, "The old man still holds my three hundred gold coin exchange voucher in his hand."

"According to the laws of Falling Star Town, any fraud over 5 gold coins must be filed and pursued. This matter can no longer be explained by 'misunderstanding'. You must give me an arbitration result."

As soon as these words came out, everyone suddenly realized that the old man felt that he had harvested the three hundred gold coins, but it became the "evidence" he needed to face.

At this time, Zhao Xu looked at the patrol captain who rushed over with a slightly provocative look.

When he first came to the town that day, he was besieged, that was a kind of status.

Now he has another identity.

And the captain seemed to see Zhao Xu's sarcasm from his sneering eyes, and when he realized that his intentions had been exposed, he immediately became annoyed.

If he really didn't know good from bad, he didn't want to cause trouble unless some important person came, otherwise he would have to take the other party's skin off.

Taking a look at the other party's age, no matter how he looked at it, he would not be that kind of powerful mage. As for player mages who were not linked to age, there was no one he needed to be afraid of.

It's just that the situation is stronger than others, and the patrol captain Jeff, who realized that he needed to see the truth, lowered his head slightly, "Your Excellency is a three-ring mage?"

At this moment, he was not afraid that the other party would lie, and it was even better if he lied. Emperor Shan Gao, who used to pretend that he was a sorcerer in Falling Star Town, was far beyond his control.

Now, there is a great man standing on the tower.

"No." Zhao Xu shook his head.

Immediately, the hearts of all the players who were looking forward to the excitement of the conflict sank.

If it is not a three-ring mage, it is even more impossible for the player to estimate upwards.

As for the residents of Arthur, at his age, he should study his knowledge in the Academy of Magic.

Those who can come out to take risks can't go anywhere.

Mage, compared to other professions, is more dependent on age.

Except for geniuses and certain patrons.

After confirming that he didn't hear anything wrong, the patrol captain Jeff raised his chin lightly, "Second ring mage?"

"No." Zhao Xu continued to shake his head.

Immediately, all the people present seemed to be relieved.

"It's not exciting to watch."

"If it's a player, maybe you can call your companions to come back and make a comeback."

"What's wrong? Doesn't this mage hold the truth?"

"Liars and these people are in the same group, and black and white take all. You can use reason?"

"Isn't there still a temple of the good god?"

"But Falling Star Town doesn't have a temple. You may not be able to understand the principles of a big city in a small town. Not to mention, there are many twists and turns when you go to a big city."

As for some capable adventurers, they looked at this with a trace of numbness. For them, young people only grow up when they hit the wall.

Jeff, the patrol captain who knew Zhao Xu's strength, already felt that he didn't need to ask any more questions. There was no difference between a ring and an apprentice.

He raised his eyes slightly, "Since you want to make a verdict, you should all go with us to the Public Security Department."

As he spoke, he glanced at Zhao Xu and attacked Zhao Xu, but he was sent to the two strong men, "Take them away too. In our town of Falling Star, you have to 'compensate' for hurting people."

Zhao Xu, on the other hand, looked at this series of cases with great interest.

Sure enough, the atmosphere was not much different from his previous life.

"It's one size fits all. You can collect the most basic evidence at the scene first, including these witnesses."

Speaking of which, Zhao Xu turned around and looked at the crowd who had been watching from the beginning, but the civilians unconsciously moved back, and only the players continued to stand resolutely, without any worries about acting as witnesses.

"Then why did you have to drag us to your security office without asking a single detail at the scene?" Zhao Xu asked back.

He understands the entire law and order principles better than the man in front of him.

Immediately, the self-conscious captain Jeff said angrily, "Is it me who handles the case, or you?"

"Arrest him, and the arrest will be ruthless!"

In an instant, Zhao Xu smiled slightly.

The public security jurisdiction of Falling Star Town has been taken by him.

From the beginning to the end, Zhao Xu behaved in a business-like manner, and did not appear to be bullying. He kept asking for an "explanation" tactfully.

Therefore, in this situation, he was still bullied like this.

Then it's not that the people in front of him want to give him an explanation.

It was the management of "Falling Star Town" who wanted to give him an explanation.

The patrol captain gave an order, and dozens of patrol members around rushed towards Zhao Xu with a fierce look on their faces.

The surrounding players didn't see it, but they didn't do anything because of it, they just yelled and scolded a few times.

Testifying is one thing, arresting is another.

People who have experienced public power in a civilized society know better that if they act rashly, they will also be in a disadvantageous situation.

Public power has always been a double-edged sword. Every time it overdraws its trust, it will blunt its side to the enemy, and in the end only the sharp side is left facing itself.

Then everything restarts.

However, Zhao Xu did not rashly use any spells to control the rushing team members in front of him.

His simple "spider web technique" or "smelly cloud technique" can put everyone in a dilemma.

Zhao Xu straightly raised his staff and pointed at the smoke bomb on the patrol captain's waist from a distance, and a hot ray shot away in an instant.

The patrol captain Jeff didn't expect that the other party would dare to attack him, and while shouting "reverse", he turned sideways and prepared to dodge.

He went back to the ray spells of the mages in his mind, and couldn't help but worry about which kind he was getting.

It was only the next moment that he realized that the fuse of the signal bomb under his waist had been ignited, and it was blazing.

Suddenly, a blue-purple smoke floated towards the sky.

Countless warning whistles came and went.

Unexpectedly, the signal smoke bomb that he had to open the insurance to activate was so easily ignited by the enemy. While Jeff was afraid of the serious consequences of calling the power of the entire town, he became even more angry with this mysterious man.

"Knock him down," he yelled.

However, the patrol members under him found that no matter how they stabbed the weapon in their hands, they would glide to the side in a very coincidental manner.

No one hit.

Suddenly, thick smoke billowed in the distance, and the elite team originally stationed in the mining area also arrived. Sitting beside him was Cage, the current sheriff of the town.

The patrol captain Jeff saw the two of them, and he was overjoyed and said, "Sir, there is a mage who is violently resisting the law. He treats our security department as nothing and refuses to accept investigation."

Facing this scene, Zhao Xu gently took off his hood.

In an instant, the faces of the two high-level officials in the small town also changed drastically.

Immediately, Sheriff Cage bowed off his horse and walked forward quickly, but Jeff was about to get close to him, but was pushed away again.

Gathering the gazes of everyone present, the magistrate bent down and said in a humble tone——

"Glory to the Alliance. Greetings to you, my lord."

This chapter is 5400, almost two chapters, I will make it up tonight.
