532 Overlord’s momentum
When the old man who was standing in front of Zhao Xu saw this, he started panting heavily. He was trying to calm himself down.
He looked at the patrol member beside him with a look of help and found that the other party was more or less flustered.
He instantly realized that if this dragged on, the whole situation would be under the control of this mysterious man. At that time, more patrols would intervene, and he would not be able to cover it up.
The old man immediately shot a look at the two strong men behind Zhao Xu and shouted, ” “A Wanderer like you, who has mastered one or two cantrips, dares to impersonate a noble Lord mage?”
The moment the construction of the wizard Association’s base in Starfall town started, be it the huge investment in financial and human resources, or the fact that the place had gradually become another central point outside of the mining area, the residents had basically witnessed the influence of the ” wizard Association ” that was very deep.
Or rather, it made them realize that a mage wasn’t just a lame character who could only cast one or two spells a day.
The drunkard in the tavern who couldn’t afford to pay was a warrior, and the commander in the capital far away was also a warrior. They couldn’t be compared.
After the old man shouted this, he grabbed the four corners of the table cloth on the ground and cursed. He didn’t care about the loss of liquid from the broken bottles. He just grabbed them and carried them on his back, ready to leave.
At that moment, the old man’s spy took out a dagger and said to Zhao Xu quietly, ” “If you know what’s good for you, then don’t cause trouble.”
At the same time, he swung his dagger and tried to stab Zhao Xu’s waist.
that was where a man’s kidney was located. anyone who was stabbed there would not have a good life for the rest of their life.
The other one opened up his arms and was about to strangle Zhao Xu so that he wouldn’t waste any more time.
Zhao Xu saw that the few of them were still trying to close the lid of the boiling water kettle clumsily, not caring that their hands would be scalded.
He spoke in a weak voice that only the two brawny men behind him could hear, ” although I’m a Lord, it doesn’t mean that I can kill and take lives in this territory.
“But it’s not something you can offend.”
As he spoke, Zhao Xu Ran straight towards the man with the dagger. This reaction almost gave the other party a shock, and they thought that he was trying to scam them.
However, the next second, his face turned pale.
He looked at the dagger in his hand. The tip of the dagger, which had been sharpened day and night since he obtained it, had actually been swept away in the air.
Force field Armor!
An ability that only official mages had!
The other party was definitely not a Wanderer who only knew how to use magic tricks!
“Ah!”
At this moment, the other brawny man who was trying to strangle Zhao Xu suddenly realized that he had been so confident in his ability to grab the shoulders of countless travelers, but he had been grabbed by this mysterious man just like that.
He didn’t move.
“Zila.”
The next moment, the sound of bones cracking could be heard.
“Don’t always rely on your strength to bully others. That’s just because you haven’t met a stronger existence.”
Right now, Zhao Xu’s strength was far greater than that of an ordinary ancient Golden Dragon, so he had the right to say ” chicken soup “.
But before he could finish his chit-chat, the two patrolling team members saw the two brawny men who were trying to control Zhao Xu suddenly collapse.
There wasn’t even the mysterious light that represented magic.
stop, lie down, raise your hands, and cover your head. Immediately, the leader of the patrol team shouted nervously, saying words that even the town’s players would not listen to.
biu—at the same time, his team members also blew the whistle that was calling for help.
It was one thing to make sense, but the arrest and the conflict with the patrol team were two different things.
Even if it made sense, it would also not.
The old man, who had already retreated three or four body lengths, also looked at this scene with satisfaction. He realized that his idea had come true, and it was all thanks to the cooperation of this young man.
he had to teach his opponent a lesson. sometimes, fists didn’t mean everything.
There were also adventurers in the crowd, and a few old foxes who had been wandering around for many years saw the internal cause and also taught their teammates how to deal with this situation.
of course, we’ll kill them in the wild, but in the city, you have to follow the rules. Even if you’re a chaotic and evil villain, you have to act in this invisible order, and you can even make use of it.
“Should I just surrender?”
“Will it make you lose a piece of meat? We are still able to walk on this land. Arthur’s light of justice has never disappeared. When there are more people, you can just make things clear. Starfall town is still under the rule of the northern Alliance. Otherwise, why would that deceiving old man run away?”
“But this is too depressing.”
“That’s fine. If you can defeat all the powerhouses in this town, then you can play with them. however, you’ll have to deal with the experts from the big cities. if you fight them, they’ll be experts from the capital, olu.”
The senior adventurer saw that he had attracted the attention of the surrounding people and was even more satisfied.”when the time comes, your right and wrong will be a small matter. You’ve slapped the Alliance’s face, that’s a big deal.”
“It’s not that bad, right?” The female adventurer beside him found it hard to understand. the Alliance is so free? ”
“Naïve. It’s precisely because everyone is busy that the first troublemaker who jumps out will firmly counterattack. Otherwise, they’ll all run to their deaths in the future. After this man makes a big scene, unless we can’t find out where he came from, it’ll be hard for him to appear in the Alliance openly.”
“Don’t listen to his nonsense.” The team leader couldn’t stand it either. the Alliance has many enemies that they haven’t dealt with. The situation he described is only caused by casualties from both sides. it’s more likely that this man defeated the patrol team and the town’s higher-ups came to settle it, or he couldn’t win and broke out.”
“At that time, the sky will be high and the birds will be free. Who knows what the other party’s identity is? That’s why it’s more important for you to train your strength. When you’re strong, you’ll have more than enough room to advance and retreat.”
Looking at his captain’s rebuttal, the 40-year-old adventurer who was used to seeing things said unhappily, ” little girl, the captain is still looking at the problem with his old way of thinking.
“That was then and this is now. If our Starfall town was just an ordinary town, then naturally, this method wouldn’t be a problem. Otherwise, there wouldn’t be so many unsolved cases in the world. However, the Starfall town right now is a miraculous place that has been blessed by the light of magic.”
as long as the town that has been slapped in the face asks for help from our nominal ‘Lord’ and puts the town’s interests first, the other party, as a powerful fourth-circle wizard, will naturally help. Where can you escape to if you rely on the spells of the mages?”
After half a month, the new adventurer’s expression was conflicted.
she had already understood that the ‘ray of frost’ that the player mages used to barely put out the fire or the ‘stun’ that made people dizzy were not the ‘true strength’ of mages.
“This is the terrifying part of the combination of mages and violence. Haven’t you noticed that the hooligans in the town have been more cautious recently?” The 40-year-old adventurer touched his well-kept mustache. the mage who stayed on the wooden tower of the station has a ‘creature positioning spell’ that can track people.
“Then what should we do?” The young adventurer was also a little sad.
she didn’t expect an adventurer who couldn’t stand fake potions to be so angry. even if it had been proven, it wouldn’t end well for him.
” well, the best outcome is that he has a relationship with the town’s officials. ”
as long as you’re giving face to this town, others will naturally protect you.
The captain beside him said in an annoyed tone, ” “Don’t listen to him. He’s just taking them in.”
At the same time, the players at the side were also watching this scene with great interest, thinking about the right time for them to intervene.
“Captain, it seems that this person is a true mage. Should we recruit him?” A warrior wearing half-body armor said in a low voice.
“Let’s keep observing.” the warrior who was called the captain was a woman, but she had a scar on her chin. ” these mages are usually arrogant. if we don’t let them suffer some setbacks, we won’t even have the chance to bargain. ”
hehe, I didn’t expect that we would have the chance to see such a conflict drama when we’re passing by Starfall town. The Rogue, who was also using sharp blades to practice his skills, said with satisfaction, ” maybe we can add another member to our fifth flash.
Everyone present did not think much of the mysterious man in front of them.
Following the sound of the whistle, several nearby patrol teams slowly came over to help.
Compared to the other poor squads, the patrols of Starfall town had started to change into their standard inlaid leather armor.
It wouldn’t affect their mobility too much, and it could also provide sufficient defense.
“Drop your weapons and explain to them.” An audience member who couldn’t stand it said.
“What’s going on?” The patrol Leader of the nearby area scolded Zhao Xu. Immediately, the members who had been confronting Zhao Xu at the start immediately went over and whispered into his ear.
After hearing the exaggerated description, Patrol Captain Jeff’s brows raised a little, but he looked at the mysterious man in front of him with a more serious expression.
Even though Zhao Xu was wearing a full set of robes, as more and more wizard players started wearing them, the quality of the robes had dropped by quite a bit.
Moreover, that ” Midsummer ” from Starfall town was a player mage. Even if the person before him was a true mage wearing a mage’s robe, the interests of both parties might not necessarily be the same.
Especially since there would be a Big Shot coming to the town today, he didn’t want to cause any trouble.
after some consideration, jeff had already considered the gains and losses of the whole process.
From the material of the robe, he realized that it was not a fake.
However, he was not that worried.
if the man in front of him was really a wizard who had surpassed the third circle and was one of those ” nobles “, he would have been bossing them around a long time ago, or he wouldn’t be so poor that he couldn’t even afford a servant.
The situation should still be within his control.
it would be best if he didn’t ask her.
Sometimes, if he didn’t know or confirm it, he didn’t need to make a ” corresponding ” action.
Because of this, the patrol Leader glared at his men angrily and said to Zhao Xu, ” “since you didn’t suffer any losses, you may leave.”
“As expected.” A sentence suddenly emerged from the crowd.
those who had lived at the bottom of the society understood that most of the time, if a swindler could deceive passers-by on a piece of land in broad daylight, it meant that they had a backer.
If they really provoked the other party and the other party reported the case, these backers behind the scenes could also come out and fight 50 big shots each, saying that there were no substantial losses and dismissing both parties.
There wasn’t even any basic detention, which made it convenient for these scammers to save time and quickly find the next lamb to slaughter.
“I actually guessed wrong.” The veteran adventurer shook his head. I don’t think so. The Midsummer Lord has only been here for less than a month, and he’s already making the entire Starfall town clear? I suspect that something is up, and the other party might be able to tell that he is a true mage.”
Zhao Xu couldn’t help but laugh as he said, ” that old man still has my 300 gold coins coupon in his hand.
“According to the laws of Starfall town, a fraud that exceeds 5 gold coins has to be filed and pursued. This matter can no longer be explained as a ‘misunderstanding’. You must give me a conclusion from the arbitration.”
as soon as he said that, everyone suddenly realized that the old man who thought he had obtained the 300 gold coins had become the “evidence” that he had to face.
At this moment, Zhao Xu was looking at the patrol Leader who had just rushed over with a slightly provocative gaze.
When he first came to the town, he was surrounded. That was his identity.
He had another identity now.
And this team leader seemed to have seen through Zhao Xu’s mocking gaze and realized that his intentions had been exposed. He immediately became angry.
He really didn’t know what was good for him. If it wasn’t for the arrival of an important figure, he didn’t want to cause trouble. Otherwise, he would definitely skin the other party.
He estimated the other party’s age and didn’t look like a powerful mage at all. As for mage players who didn’t have age-related attributes, he didn’t need to be afraid of them.
However, the situation was more pressing than the person. Realizing that they needed to see the truth, the patrol Captain Jeff lowered his head slightly. are you a third-circle mage, Sir? ”
At this point, he wasn’t afraid that the other party would lie. In fact, it would be even better if he did. In the past, when Starfall town pretended to be a mage, the lofty Emperor couldn’t do anything about it.
Right now, there was an important figure standing on top of the tower.
“No.” Zhao Xu shook his head.
Suddenly, the hearts of all the players who had been anticipating a conflict sank.
If he wasn’t a third-circle mage, then it was even more impossible to estimate the player’s strength.
As for the residents of Arthur, at their age, they should be studying in a Magic Academy.
Those who were able to come out for an adventure were not of a high level.
Compared to other professions, mages were more dependent on age.
Except for geniuses and some of their benefactors.
After making sure that he didn’t mishear, the patrol Captain raised his chin. a second-circle mage? ”
“Not really,” Zhao Xu continued to shake his head.
Immediately, everyone’s anger dissipated.
“There’s no more fun to watch.”
“If they were players, they might be able to call their companions to turn the tables.”
“what’s wrong? isn’t this sorcerer a reasonable person?”
scammers are with these people. They work for both the black and white. What’s the use of reasoning with them? ”
“isn’t there still a good god’s temple?”
“But there’s no temple in Starfall town. You might not be able to explain the logic of a big city in a small town. Not to mention, going to the big city is also full of twists and turns.”
As for some of the more capable adventurers, they looked at this with a hint of numbness. To them, young people would only grow up if they hit a wall.
Now that he knew how strong Zhao Xu was, the patrol Leader felt like he didn’t need to ask any more questions. Whether he was a first circle or an apprentice, it didn’t make a difference.
He raised his eyes slightly. since you want the verdict, come with us to the security Office.
As he spoke, he glanced at the two brawny men who had attacked Zhao Xu. take them away as well. In Starfall town, you have to ‘compensate’ for any injuries you cause.
Meanwhile, Zhao Xu was looking at the series of cases with great interest.
As expected, the atmosphere was not much different from that of his previous life.
“that’s a separate matter. you can collect the most basic evidence at the scene first, including these witnesses.”
As he spoke, Zhao Xu turned around and looked at the crowd of people who had been watching from the start. However, the commoners all subconsciously moved back a little, and only the players continued to stand there resolutely, not worried at all that they would become witnesses.
“Then why did you drag us to your Security Office without asking for any details?” Zhao Xu asked in return.
He knew the entire law and order better than the man in front of him.
Immediately, the captain, Jeff, who tried to be nice, said angrily, ” am I the one handling the case, or are you? ”
“Arrest him, and be ruthless once he’s captured!”
zhao xu smiled.
He had already taken control of the security of Starfall town.
From the beginning to the end, Zhao Xu acted like he was working. He didn’t look like he was bullying anyone and just tactfully asked for an ” explanation “.
Therefore, he was still being bullied in such a situation.
Then, it wasn’t the people in front of him who wanted to give him an explanation.
It was the management of Starfall town who wanted to give him an explanation.
the patrol leader gave the order, and the dozen or so patrol members around him all pounced towards zhao xu with fierce looks on their faces.
The surrounding players couldn’t stand it, but they didn’t attack. They only cursed.
Being a witness was one thing, but arresting him was another.
Having seen the power of public office in a civilized society, they knew better that if they acted rashly, they would also be in a disadvantageous situation.
Public power had always been a double-edged sword. Every time he overused his trust, it would make the enemy blunt, and in the end, only the sharp side would be left for himself.
Then, order was restored.
But Zhao Xu didn’t rashly cast any spells to control the team members that were pouncing at him.
A simple “cobweb” or “Stinking Cloud” was enough to put everyone in a life-and-death dilemma.
Zhao Xu immediately raised his staff and pointed it at the smoke grenade on the patrol leader’s waist. In an instant, a ray of hot light shot out.
Patrol Captain Jeff didn’t expect that the other party would dare to attack him. As he shouted, ” rebel! , he turned sideways and prepared to Dodge.
He recalled the mages ‘ray spells in his mind and couldn’t help but worry about what kind of spells he had been hit by.
However, the next moment, he realized that the signal flare under his waist had been ignited and was burning.
Suddenly, a blue-purple mist floated into the sky.
Countless warning whistles were raised one after another.
Jeff didn’t expect the signal smoke bomb, which he had to pull the safety to activate, to be so easily ignited by the enemy. While fearing the serious consequences of summoning the entire town’s power, he also became more angry at the mysterious man.
“Hurry up and knock him down,” he shouted.
however, his patrolman realized that no matter how he tried to stab his weapon, it would coincidentally slide to the side.
No one got it.
Suddenly, smoke billowed in the distance, and the elite team that had been guarding the mine arrived. Cage, the sheriff of the town, was sitting beside him.
When the patrol Captain, Jeff, saw the two of them, he was even more overjoyed. Sir, there’s a mage here who’s violently resisting the law. He’s treating our Security Bureau like nothing and refuses to be investigated.
In the face of this, Zhao Xu just gently took off his hood.
Instantly, the expressions of the two high-ranking personnel of the small town changed drastically.
Immediately, cage, the sheriff, got off his horse and walked forward quickly. Jeff was about to approach him, but was pushed away again.
Under everyone’s gaze, the sheriff bent down and said in a humble tone,
“Glory to the Alliance. Greetings, my Lord.”
532 Overlord’s momentum
When the old man who was standing in front of Zhao Xu saw this, he started panting heavily. He was trying to calm himself down.
He looked at the patrol member beside him with a look of help and found that the other party was more or less flustered.
He instantly realized that if this dragged on, the whole situation would be under the control of this mysterious man. At that time, more patrols would intervene, and he would not be able to cover it up.
The old man immediately shot a look at the two strong men behind Zhao Xu and shouted, ” “A Wanderer like you, who has mastered one or two cantrips, dares to impersonate a noble Lord mage?”

The other one opened up his arms and was about to strangle Zhao Xu so that he wouldn’t waste any more time.
Zhao Xu saw that the few of them were still trying to close the lid of the boiling water kettle clumsily, not caring that their hands would be scalded.
He spoke in a weak voice that only the two brawny men behind him could hear, ” although I’m a Lord, it doesn’t mean that I can kill and take lives in this territory.

“No.” Zhao Xu shook his head.
Suddenly, the hearts of all the players who had been anticipating a conflict sank.
If he wasn’t a third-circle mage, then it was even more impossible to estimate the player’s strength.
As for the residents of Arthur, at their age, they should be studying in a Magic Academy.
Those who were able to come out for an adventure were not of a high level.
Compared to other professions, mages were more dependent on age.
Except for geniuses and some of their benefactors.
After making sure that he didn’t mishear, the patrol Captain raised his chin. a second-circle mage? ”
“Not really,” Zhao Xu continued to shake his head.
Immediately, everyone’s anger dissipated.
“There’s no more fun to watch.”
“If they were players, they might be able to call their companions to turn the tables.”
“what’s wrong? isn’t this sorcerer a reasonable person?”
scammers are with these people. They work for both the black and white. What’s the use of reasoning with them? ”
“isn’t there still a good god’s temple?”
“But there’s no temple in Starfall town. You might not be able to explain the logic of a big city in a small town. Not to mention, going to the big city is also full of twists and turns.”
As for some of the more capable adventurers, they looked at this with a hint of numbness. To them, young people would only grow up if they hit a wall.
Now that he knew how strong Zhao Xu was, the patrol Leader felt like he didn’t need to ask any more questions. Whether he was a first circle or an apprentice, it didn’t make a difference.
He raised his eyes slightly. since you want the verdict, come with us to the security Office.
As he spoke, he glanced at the two brawny men who had attacked Zhao Xu. take them away as well. In Starfall town, you have to ‘compensate’ for any injuries you cause.
Meanwhile, Zhao Xu was looking at the series of cases with great interest.
As expected, the atmosphere was not much different from that of his previous life.
“that’s a separate matter. you can collect the most basic evidence at the scene first, including these witnesses.”
As he spoke, Zhao Xu turned around and looked at the crowd of people who had been watching from the start. However, the commoners all subconsciously moved back a little, and only the players continued to stand there resolutely, not worried at all that they would become witnesses.
“Then why did you drag us to your Security Office without asking for any details?” Zhao Xu asked in return.
He knew the entire law and order better than the man in front of him.
Immediately, the captain, Jeff, who tried to be nice, said angrily, ” am I the one handling the case, or are you? ”
“Arrest him, and be ruthless once he’s captured!”
zhao xu smiled.
He had already taken control of the security of Starfall town.
From the beginning to the end, Zhao Xu acted like he was working. He didn’t look like he was bullying anyone and just tactfully asked for an ” explanation “.
Therefore, he was still being bullied in such a situation.
Then, it wasn’t the people in front of him who wanted to give him an explanation.
It was the management of Starfall town who wanted to give him an explanation.
the patrol leader gave the order, and the dozen or so patrol members around him all pounced towards zhao xu with fierce looks on their faces.
The surrounding players couldn’t stand it, but they didn’t attack. They only cursed.
Being a witness was one thing, but arresting him was another.
Having seen the power of public office in a civilized society, they knew better that if they acted rashly, they would also be in a disadvantageous situation.
Public power had always been a double-edged sword. Every time he overused his trust, it would make the enemy blunt, and in the end, only the sharp side would be left for himself.
Then, order was restored.
But Zhao Xu didn’t rashly cast any spells to control the team members that were pouncing at him.
A simple “cobweb” or “Stinking Cloud” was enough to put everyone in a life-and-death dilemma.
Zhao Xu immediately raised his staff and pointed it at the smoke grenade on the patrol leader’s waist. In an instant, a ray of hot light shot out.
Patrol Captain Jeff didn’t expect that the other party would dare to attack him. As he shouted, ” rebel! , he turned sideways and prepared to Dodge.
He recalled the mages ‘ray spells in his mind and couldn’t help but worry about what kind of spells he had been hit by.
However, the next moment, he realized that the signal flare under his waist had been ignited and was burning.
Suddenly, a blue-purple mist floated into the sky.
Countless warning whistles were raised one after another.
Jeff didn’t expect the signal smoke bomb, which he had to pull the safety to activate, to be so easily ignited by the enemy. While fearing the serious consequences of summoning the entire town’s power, he also became more angry at the mysterious man.
“Hurry up and knock him down,” he shouted.
however, his patrolman realized that no matter how he tried to stab his weapon, it would coincidentally slide to the side.
No one got it.
Suddenly, smoke billowed in the distance, and the elite team that had been guarding the mine arrived. Cage, the sheriff of the town, was sitting beside him.
When the patrol Captain, Jeff, saw the two of them, he was even more overjoyed. Sir, there’s a mage here who’s violently resisting the law. He’s treating our Security Bureau like nothing and refuses to be investigated.
In the face of this, Zhao Xu just gently took off his hood.
Instantly, the expressions of the two high-ranking personnel of the small town changed drastically.
Immediately, cage, the sheriff, got off his horse and walked forward quickly. Jeff was about to approach him, but was pushed away again.
Under everyone’s gaze, the sheriff bent down and said in a humble tone,
“Glory to the Alliance. Greetings, my Lord.”
