A group following the Sheriff consisted of over twenty people, with almost everyone being around 1.8 ters tall, extrely muscular.
They were wearing black armor, the surface of which was engraved with complex magic runes, clearly indicating they were Magic Knights. Even when arriving on foot without warhorses, they possessed powerful combat abilities and could call for additional squad support at any ti, sufficient to resolve most situations.
Furthermore, it’s worth ntioning that the expressions of these Magic Knights were very wooden, almost to the point of being dazed.
Among the crowd, Ma Qiu glanced over and imdiately identified them as warriors of the Spark Clan.
Indeed, warriors of the Spark Clan.
It is said that the warriors of the Spark Clan co from the deepest part of the North Wilderness, having been forced to leave their holand due to a lack of food and co to Shalin. These people possess the bloodline of legendary war gods, revering ancestors who died bravely in battle and are extrely martial. They are normally silent and taciturn, but almost crazed and fearless in battle, being both the most reliable partners and the most terrifying enemies, depending on which side you’re on.
About three years ago, the Spark Clan first arrived in Shalin. Initially small in number, once the first batch stabilized, they began calling more and more compatriots from the North Wilderness to join the military.
Today, the Spark Clan may not constitute a large portion of Shalin’s population, but due to their stiff, wooden character and brave, ferocious combat thods, they have beco a hallmark of Shalin’s military.
Seeing the Spark Clan’s Magic Knights co forth, Ma Qiu imdiately realized the situation was completely secure, safely watching the drama unfold.
He watched as the Sheriff leading the Spark Clan’s Magic Knights walked nearby and asked in a cool voice, "What happened here? Can anyone tell ?"
"Sheriff Rum, right." The man in the dark green robe spoke, looking at the Sheriff and saying, "My na is Bo Wen, I am a lecturer at Atlantis University’s Faculty of Biology, just passing by. When I was walking nearby earlier, I suddenly saw an extraordinary power battle erupt, and to prevent civilians from getting hurt, I quickly intervened."
"Afterward, I learned that these four ’Judgnt Court’ people ca from Shaya." The man in the dark green robe pointed at four n in gray clothes.
"The reason they ca from Shaya to Atlantis was to capture him." The man in the dark green robe pointed again at the small stall owner Eric, "Judging by the looks of it, the capture attempt didn’t go smoothly and resulted in a battle.
The general situation should be like this. Honestly, it has nothing to do with , I just stepped in out of a desire to help. For specific details, please ask both parties to clarify. As for , I have a class to attend soon, so if there’s no problem, can I leave for now? Of course, if anything cos up later, you can go to the school and inquiry further."
Having listened to the man in the dark green robe, Sheriff Rum blinked and looked at the small stall owner Eric and the four n in gray, asking, "Is what he said true?"
"True," the stall owner nodded.
The four n in gray, however, remained silent.
"Then it seems... it should be true." Sheriff Rum pondered for a mont, looked at the man in the dark green robe and said formally, "In that case, Lecturer Bo Wen, you are free to go. Thank you for your intervention; otherwise, today could have resulted in a major casualty incident."
"You’re welco. It’s what I should do." The man in the dark green robe politely replied, not lingering any further due to obviously being in a rush and quickly departed.
After the man in the dark green robe left, Sheriff Rum glanced at the stall owner Eric and the four n in gray, saying, "As I said earlier, if Lecturer Bo Wen hadn’t intervened today, a major casualty incident might have occurred. So regardless of your reasons, I ask that you all co to the Security Court and thoroughly explain the events, after which punishnt will be determined based on the actual situation."
"Alright, I accept." The stall owner Eric responded cooperatively.
The four n in gray were not as straightforward. The bald man frowned, squinting at Sheriff Rum and asked, "What do you an? I brought people to capture a criminal and you, Atlantis City, not only don’t assist but also want to interrogate ? Is Atlantis City really still Alliance territory?"
"Please understand one thing, being asked to go to the Security Court is because you engaged in extraordinary power combat in a public place. Your attempt to capture a criminal is another matter. If the criminal you’re trying to capture indeed violated serious laws, then submit a joint capture application to our Departnt of Law or Efficiency Departnt. Once approved, we will assist in capturing and sending the criminal to Shaya for punishnt. But this can only proceed upon completing the first issue," Sheriff Rum stated seriously.
"Now, please cooperate and co with to the Security Court to resolve the first matter." Sheriff Rum paused and added.
The bald man raised his eyebrows slightly, sowhat provocatively saying, "What if I don’t cooperate, what can you do to ?"
"I..." Sheriff Rum looked the bald man over seriously and smiled, "Actually, I can’t do anything to you. After all, you possess extraordinary power, and I am just an ordinary person."
"Smart choice." The bald man said coldly.
"I certainly know what’s best." Sheriff Rum said as he retreated, "I am just a low-level employee hired by the Departnt of Law, earning a salary that’s neither high nor low, barely enough to support my family, but not worth dying for. However, while I won’t do anything to you, it doesn’t an they won’t."
Sheriff Rum had retreated behind the Spark Clan’s Magic Knights, and pointed to the Spark people in front of him, loudly declaring, "They belong to the Safety Departnt, earn more than , have better benefits, so usually it’s them who handle life-risking matters. So..."
"Gentlen, please!" Sheriff Rum said clearly.
"Understand." The Spark Clan mbers rumbled in response, and together stepped forward toward the bald man.
The bald man’s eyes widened slightly, watching the approaching Spark people, his brows deeply furrowed: "What, you dare to lay hands on !"
"Boom!"
The answer to the bald man was a heavy punch with a purple glow, fiercely hitting his face.
The bald man’s face was grave, yet not panicked, he stepped back and his whole body emitted a milky white glow, swinging a punch, attempting to connect.
However, before the fists could touch, the bald man’s body swayed and fell to the ground—two other Spark Clan mbers had maneuvered to the sides of the bald man, silently launching an attack.
"You dare to ambush and fight with overwhelming numbers!" The bald man was furious.
"Swipe!"
Before the bald man could finish, an unending swarm of Spark Clan mbers rushed forth.
"Boom boom!"
"You dare..."
"Boom boom boom boom!"
"You shaless..."
"Boom boom boom boom boom boom!"
...
Approximately ten seconds later.
The battered and bruised bald man was firmly pinned to the ground, with as many as seven Spark Clan mbers pressing down on him. Given the Spark Clan’s size and the armor they wore, it was akin to having a small mountain on him, completely stripping him of any chance to resist.
As for the remaining dozen or so Spark Clan mbers, they stood nearby, expressionless, watching the other three companions of the bald man.
The bald man, trapped under the weight, weakly called for help, "You... help !"
His three companions, upon hearing his plea, glanced at him and then at the slowly closing in, ready to strike Spark Clan mbers. They exchanged a look, and the next mont, decisively raised their hands.
"We surrender."
The bald man: "..."
