When Thor and Mayor Elton Herrick walked out of the mayor's mansion side by side, Evan Semir's mood instantly dropped to a freezing point, because things had returned to his expectations, but towards the worst possible outcome.

Apparently, Thor's imp had convinced Mayor Elton to intervene in the situation.

Today's events may be spicy.

It didn't look like Elton was wearing swordsman armor, he just had a long sword hanging from his waist, and maybe he wasn't ready to do it himself. Of course, it is also possible that he did not pay attention to himself and his subordinates at all, and Ivan looked a little solemn.

Although it was customary to refer to Elton as an 'old man' on some private occasions, he was technically not too old in his late forties, at least not to the point where he could not lift a sword.

Many years ago, Elton came here as a third-order posture and cleared this chaotic place with a bloody and strong wrist, leaving the entire Grey Curtain Town with only one voice from now on.

After that, Elton suddenly retreated into the background, no longer pursuing the rise of personal strength, and from then on only devoted himself to management. And his third-order strength was placed there, and it just became a kind of deterrent.

However, if you want to talk about why there is a fault in the strength stratification of the second order in Gray Curtain Town, there is still a large part of the reason that comes from this old mayor.

The risk of death in the ranks is no secret to those who value strength.

People are often life-sparing, and those who can be successfully promoted from the first order to the second order are mostly outlaws who dare to fight or people who are desperate and have the will to die. It's just that even if they get lucky, they still have to live honestly in the rules of the game set by Mayor Elton.

This means that they still can't become rule-makers in the second order, and naturally they can't become the existence of the head snake.

As a result, the scattered second-order people left the frontier of Gray Curtain Town one after another, and went to a bigger place to seek greater development.

Maybe after many years, the lucky ones among them have the strength to be on an equal footing with Mayor Elton, and even reach a higher fourth order, but maybe with the broadening of their horizons, no one has ever returned to the remote little place of Grey Curtain Town.

This leads to at least in Grey Curtain Town, where Mayor Elton is king.

Slowly pulling out the long sword at his waist, Elton twisted his wrist and danced the blade in the air in a random circle, as if recalling the feeling he had felt. The surrounding mercenaries were even a little agitated in their breath, how many years had they not seen the old mayor of the third order take action in person.

Thor stood quietly beside the old mayor, his face fluctuating, and although the time had come to flip the table, he was only honestly acting as a temporary head of the Brotherhood.

Bow your head, be deceived, be despicable, poisoned, be brazen?

Thor had never cared, compared to Presia's terrible screams on that rainy night, compared to the tearing grief of waking up from nightmares in countless dark nights, these worldly gazes and orientations were too light, not even dust.

As Mayor Elton drew his sword, the guards and mercenaries at the gate of the mansion gathered around Evan and his group. It's not just them, the old butler had secretly given orders before, and the news was passed on layer by layer.

Those guys who had been hiding in the darkness and had been looking forward to it had also emerged from all directions at this moment, gathering towards Evan and the others from all directions.

In the blink of an eye, it has become a circle.

There were eight people in Evan's group, which seemed to be a lot, but in the current trend of closing in front of them, this group of people seemed to have turned into several reefs in the tide in an instant.

"Captain, the situation is out of control, let's cover you, you can go first after tearing the gap. One of his men admonished Ivan at his side.

The situation in front of him is obviously difficult to improve, but since they have eaten this bowl of rice, although the faces of the subordinates are solemn, no one has taken a step back.

In fact, his subordinates had advised Ivan to avoid it for the time being today and look for a better opportunity later, but Ivan refused.

It's not out of any conceit, in Evan's heart, others didn't even show up, and a group of people themselves dispersed. This is no longer evasion, this is an embarrassment running away with his tail between his legs, and the insults and sarcasm in it are something that Evan would rather die than accept.

Of course, in Evan 's heart, it is definitely impossible to go head-to-head with the third-order old mayor.

He just didn't believe that a little ghost like Thor could make old Elton willing to be a knife and completely tear his face with his own group of people to start a full-scale war through some words to provoke or lure.

There is no point in this kind of bloodshed, if old Elton only has such a pattern, then he is a headless idiot, and he can't have been hovering in the position of mayor for so many years.

So Evan was waiting, on the one hand, he was thinking quickly, delusionally trying to see the truth behind the whole fog, and at the same time waiting for a result.

Listening to the advice of his subordinates, Ivan pursed the corners of his mouth and shook his head slightly expressionlessly, then raised his hands and arched his hands to the strolling figure in the distance.

"Dear Lord Elton, we have no intention of offending, but today I have some old things to talk about with that little brother next to you, Saul Drake, about the whereabouts of my brother Barton Semuel, and I hope that Your Excellency Mayor will make it easier. ”

Looking at Evan's behavior, Town Elder Elton smiled and waved his hand.

"Brother Samir, I've heard of you, but I've only heard of you. I don't care where you are, get out of here!"

Hearing Elton's vicious expulsion, Ivan didn't have an angry look on his face, but he was relieved in his heart. Since the other party's ultimate goal is only to get rid of them, it means that the situation is still not out of control.

"Your Excellency, we are willing to give away the ring, we just want to talk to this little brother, and hope that Your Excellency the Mayor will give you a thin face. "Now that the situation has not reached a dead end, Evan is still trying to make his own judgment.

"I don't know what bullshit ring you're talking about, this little brother is my guest. As Elton's gaze froze, there was a loud sound of sword drawing around him.

Thor was in the center of the whirlpool, and although his face was calm, there was still a trace of nervousness in his heart. He knew very well that the most fatal point in the whole false story he had fabricated was the death of the head nun Melissa.

Evan doesn't know about the Brotherhood and thinks Melissa died in Presia's revenge. Elton, the old mayor, thinks that Melissa died in the Brotherhood's efforts to eliminate traitors, and is unaware of the series of events involved in Precia's death.

No matter how much both sides believe it, but at least on the surface, there is a problem of information asymmetry. If this matter is put on the table now, it will undoubtedly become the biggest variable, and it can collapse the whole illusion in an instant.

A smart person like Evan, if he were given a little more time and peace of mind, he might be able to find out this by combing things through the beginning. But now that Ivan is surrounded and oppressed, it is unlikely that he will be able to find this tiny thread in a short period of time.

Hearing Mayor Elton's answer, and seeing the posture of the other party's dead Protector, a gloom flashed in Ivan eyes, the result he waited for was obtained, and obviously there was no talk about it today.

Keeping his last polite salute, Ivan gave Thor a deep look, then waved to his men and prepared to leave.

However, as Evan and the others walked, Mayor Elton suddenly laughed again.

"I suddenly changed my mind again, and I think you'd better stay. ”

Hearing Elton's words, Evan's heart sank, and his eyes turned back with a hideous gaze.

Obviously, the situation is going in the direction he fears the most, and Thor not only said that he used the mayor Elton to make a knife, but also used it to kill a group of his own people.

Facing Ivan's furious gaze, Mayor Elton smiled unflinchingly.

"We need dead people to keep some secrets. ”

"Old Zamao, do you really think that a mere third-order can be unscrupulous? Just because you can't kill me, maybe my brothers and siblings will be left here, but I promise that you and your forces will be retributioned by me exponentially, do you really want to die?" Ivan glared at Elton and gritted his teeth.

"Captain!" Ivan and his men were clearly aware of their mortality, and their tones were somewhat resolute.

"Since you say so, then I can't keep you, because I don't like to keep a dog that hides in the dark and looks at me at all times. ”

As he spoke, Mayor Elton took a sudden step, apparently a prelude to the charge. However, before Elton's speed could be increased to the extreme, the anomaly occurred.

With a hideous and crazy smile on his face, Ivan quickly took out a magic scroll and tore it decisively, and then his figure became blurred and shaky, and the whole person disappeared in place.

"Tsk! It's a teleportation scroll! It's still a short distance, that's a rarity, and this kid is quite decisive. Elton paused and sighed with some emotion.

Evan was indeed decisive, otherwise when Elton was close to him with overwhelming third-order strength, he might not have a chance to tear the scroll.

Thor was stunned by the sudden scene in front of him, feeling both happy and a little troubled.

Fortunately, if Evan is wiped out by the hand of Mayor Elton according to the predetermined situation, then Thor himself will be ready to run away in at least two or three months.

Because he made up the story about the brotherhood, and he couldn't give the corresponding benefits to smooth out this favor.

Now that Ivan, the main target, has fled, this favor is not so heavy.

Sure enough, Elton, who had put his sword back into his waist, stepped back to Thor and whispered.

"I'll help you get rid of his men, but I hope we've never seen each other, and I don't know anything about the Brotherhood. "Mayor Elton said, as for the revenge of a second-order mercenary, he really didn't pay attention to it.

"Anyway, I still have to thank the mayor for his help, as for Evan, the traitor of the Brotherhood should be handed over to the Brotherhood to deal with itself. Thor bowed slightly, then turned and left.

There's nothing to watch at the scene of killing Ivan's men, and Thor is going to prepare for the troubles that lie ahead.
