Brich was the lord of Velinclone. Under the pressure of the Merlox Empire army, he chose to compromise and brought his entire family to surrender, along with him and the old nobles attached to him.
The Brich family, which has a strong family and has two mentor-level masters in charge, has always been the underground king of Welin. Even the city governor needs to watch his face before he acts.
The Brich family lost the income from their territory and suffered a big loss in business, which almost cost the entire family. Finally, he turned his attention to the city hall and used the city hall to help them make money.
Today, the wealth obtained by the Brich family through the hands of the city hall is even greater than that of the former territory, and there is no need to manage the territory. In addition, the empire is developing rapidly, and the Brich family is at the forefront.
Take this opportunity to soar.
The two mentor-level masters are disclosed to the public by the Blish family. In fact, they already have four mentor-level masters. Brich is already reaching the late stage of the mentor-level. At his age, it is not impossible to have the opportunity to reach the peak of the mentor-level, and even
Great mentor level realm.
In order to become a powerful master, Brixi will never allow anyone to disrupt the stable chain of interests of Welin Clone.
As for the people affected by the disaster, in his eyes, they were no more than animals.
Once it dies, it dies, and within a few years, a large number of new babies will appear.
Naturally, Brich would not let Hathaway put the hat on his head at will. This would affect the family's reputation in the local area. If the family's reputation was completely ruined and became the enemy of the people, there was no guarantee that they would not face difficulties from the garrison.
"Sir Hathaway, in order to provide disaster relief, major local families donated money and efforts. In your opinion, how did it turn out that you wanted the disaster to expand, or did you focus on the materials in the logistics warehouse and wanted local officials and nobles to take the blame?"
Brich suddenly became the guest.
Hathaway shouted calmly: "Last night, the special investigation team found a ledger, which recorded evidence of how city hall officials and local nobles secretly resold logistics warehouse materials and divided the spoils. The amounts and materials involved were shocking.
"
Blish never expected that Hathaway would move so quickly. As soon as they got the news, they rushed over at full speed, but they didn't expect that they would still be a step too late.
Brixi nodded to a magister next to him, and a blue barrier slowly rose, surrounding the entire city hall and square.
Seeing this scene, Hathaway shouted decisively: "If they want to jump over the wall, do it!"
The figure of Glock, who had been hiding in the dark, suddenly appeared behind an early-stage mentor-level master outside. He raised his knife and dropped it, his head flew up, and his blood spurted out like a fountain.
That was the patriarch of the Gudra family, Brixi's in-law. He had just broken through the mentor level two years ago, and Brixi had done a lot of work in this.
I don’t know how many resources were spent on cultivating a mentor-level master, but in the end, he was killed instantly without being of any use.
How could Blish not be angry, he struck at Glock with anger.
As a top assassin, Glock will choose to evacuate and look for opportunities again, no matter whether he kills with one hit or fails.
Rumble!
Brixi was angry and struck out with a palm, but killed most of the people in that direction.
Hathaway shouted angrily: "Brich, are you trying to drive out all the people in the barrier?"
A blue barrier has been formed, separating the inside and the outside into two worlds.
People inside can still see people outside, as clearly as transparent glass, but when people outside look into the barrier, they can only see a blue sky.
"Don't worry, Lord Hathaway, as long as everyone here dies, I will report it to the Governor's Mansion. Your attempt to covet supplies from the logistics warehouse was discovered by my family leader. My family leader led the local nobles to negotiate with you. In the end, a fierce battle broke out, and the wrong person will
You kill it, and then the account book will be in the hands of this family leader, and I can change the contents in it however I want."
Brixi's words completely panicked the people in the barrier.
Hathaway said three times in a row: "Okay, okay!"
"Open the door of the city hall and let people take shelter."
When Glock was about to take action again, a black shadow appeared in his place with a flash of light.
Clang!
A violent conflict broke out between two assassins walking in the dark.
Brixi smiled disdainfully and said: "I have long heard that halflings are good at sneaking up on assassins. When I saw them today, they are indeed well-deserved."
Glock failed in the ambush this time and instead of continuing to lurk, he retreated behind Hathaway.
At the same time, an assassin wrapped in a black tights appeared a few meters away to the right of Brich. However, his chest rose and fell rapidly, which showed that the battle just now put great pressure on him.
Brich also understood how difficult Glock was and decisively increased his reward.
"As long as Glock can be killed, the original reward will be doubled."
If such a mentor-level assassin is not dealt with as soon as possible, they will not dare to attack the city hall with all their strength.
Antonio directed the special investigation team to lead the people to evacuate into the city hall in an orderly manner. Brich did not stop this, but quietly waited for the people to evacuate into the city hall.
This is not to show mercy and not to deal with the onlookers, but to wait until all the people evacuate into the city hall. At that time, a small forbidden spell can be used to raze the city hall to the ground, easily and quickly.
"You don't think this is our strength!"
After Brixi laughed, she clapped her hands, and five more figures appeared in the crowd of nobles, each of them exuding a mentor-level aura.
In addition to the one person who died in the battle, there are ten mentor-level masters on their side, which is enough to crush the four Hathaways.
Seeing this scene, Hathaway could not remain calm. Four against five, they still had a chance of winning. After all, they came from the imperial capital, and their equipment was not comparable to that of these local nobles. Take Hathaway for example, Aslan was leaving
When she was there, she also gave him two pieces of legendary equipment for self-defense. Her actual combat effectiveness was no worse than that of a peak instructor-level master.
The other team members also have epic weapons at best, among them Antonio has a legendary cross sword given by Aslan.
If there are six people, they are still capable of fighting, but when the number of enemy instructor-level masters reaches ten, they have no chance of winning. When ten people surround four people, even if they exchange injuries for injuries, it will be difficult to pull the enemy back.
As long as they adopt siege tactics and cover each other, they can completely grind them to death here.
After assessing the strength of both sides, Hathaway made a decisive decision: "Retreat to the city hall, use the city hall's defensive magic circle to resist, and wait for reinforcements."
Blish had already anticipated that Hathaway would do this, and laughed heartily.
"Don't waste your efforts. Before I took action, I had already asked someone to place a magic wave isolation barrier around the Wellin clones to isolate your remote communications."
