Chapter 377 The Dominant Viscount Symons (1)
In the blink of an eye, Millfall was on alert!
As some of those involved in the auction earlier left town and took their battles to the nearby forests, several trouble spots sprang up around the town.
The royal laws forbade such things, but in a city where there were currently no 3rd-stage soldiers, and many of those interested in obtaining valuable resources for free were Mages, it wasn't possible that no one would dare to disobey the local laws.
Would there be any punishment for such actions? That would depend on the soldiers, the witnesses, and the general interest in punishing offenders.
It wouldn't be easy for mere Acolytes under Nova's command to do this to Mages!
Given the local situation and the number of outside powers with members in Millfall at the moment, hardly any interested parties gave any thought to the laws of the realm tonight.
As soon as the last winners of the auction rounds left the local theater building, those interested in alternative ways to obtain valuable resources began their respective pursuits until the first clashes began!
At least three clashes were going on around Millfall now, while most of the experts in the city today began to take on Viscount Symons!
After leaving the theater with his group, he hadn't gotten far enough to reach his estate. As he was about to arrive at the mansion, some Low-level Mages surrounded his group and "politely" asked him to hand over his belongings.
They were all obviously wearing masks on their faces and were dressed so inconspicuously that it would be impossible to tell who they really were just by looking at them. nOvE/lb-In
An attacker could be identified by his magical fluctuation. However, for wealthy nobles like these individuals who were interested in taking action against the Viscount, this was not something that could be used against them in a court of law.
More concrete evidence would be required for someone of influence to be seriously considered guilty!
It wasn't a fair world, and even if a soldier testified at a Martial Court, their testimony would be discredited if they weren't provided with evidence other than the suspect's aura.
That's why it was enough for these people acting tonight to hide their appearance!
Viscount Symons found himself next to his men, Marcus and his wife, surrounded by the many people interested in the three resources he had collected that evening. But even though many Mages had their eyes on him, he didn't feel pressured enough.
"I'll give you a chance to return where you came from and pretend this didn't happen." The Viscount said as he took a step towards his estate.
"Not so fast!" One of the Mages said in an aggressive tone. "We are not joking. Hand over your belongings, or we'll have to take your life!"
"Take my life? With just you?" The Viscount asked in a teasing tone, feeling that these people were real clowns.
Before advancing to the Mid-level, he would have reconsidered his words when dealing with a group like this. But now, he was confident he could defeat such opponents even if he fought without allies!
The men surrounding the Viscount knew how strong he was but didn't want to give up the valuable items in the blond man's spatial ring.
After his words, all those interested in the three items the Viscount had purchased tonight stepped forward, transferring more of their mana into their Magic Gems, making their pentagrams appear from their bodies.
