The four hundred and fortieth eighth chapter power is in hand
The projectile penetrated the Sheriff's soul shield and hit the shoulder.
boom!
Minced meat and blood flew backwards, splashing on the faces of several soldiers. The Sheriff screamed, and his entire shoulder blade was smashed.
Downton swung his war hammer, blasted his shield, and hit him on the waist.
With the crisp sound of fractures, the Sheriff rolled out like a dead dog, his face covered in white hair and sweat from the pain.
The direct guards who rushed up were in bad luck. The abominations were not serious about their attacks. They hit them hard and turned them into a pile of rotten flesh, with blood dripping on the floor.
The remaining soldiers froze on the spot, and no one dared to charge.
The pungent smell of blood made the faces of the onlookers change. This was the Sheriff, the second most powerful figure in Morning Mist Town, and Downton actually killed him at will, without even giving him any face.
"Too domineering!"
An adventurer backed away, then quickly covered his mouth and shrank his neck, fearing that Downton would cause trouble.
"Colluded with wanted criminals, let the gang of robbers enter Morning Mist Town, and attempted to do evil to the townspeople. What else do you have to say?" Downton stood next to the Sheriff and kicked his head straight.
"Bah, I'm right, you wronged a good man!" The Sheriff spat on Downton's pants, stared at him fiercely, and retorted loudly, "I'm going to sue you in front of Duke Placido.
You bastard!"
"Then how do you explain these people?"
Downton let Abomination drag the scarred man over who fainted.
"I don't know." The Sheriff was lying. He hated Franz to death now. What kind of rubbish killer was he looking for? Not only did he not kill Downton, but he was also blamed for it.
"That is a dereliction of duty. As the mayor, I will temporarily remove your title of Sheriff." This is a great opportunity to eradicate dissidents. It would be foolish for Downton to let it go. "Someone, put them in a water prison."
, awaiting trial.”
"You don't have this right. Only the Duke of the West has the right to deal with me." The Sheriff became anxious and yelled. He knew what was going on in the dungeon. If he was locked up within three days, he would be tortured to death.
.
Downton raised his leg and slammed his military boot on the Sheriff's mouth, knocking back all his arguments, "What are you waiting for? Drag him away."
The soldiers looked at the officer whose lower cheek was broken, and they were all as silent as a chill. They didn't know what to do.
"Put down your weapons!" Downton glanced at the group of soldiers, "Or do you want to spend the night with him in the water cell?"
Boom! Boom!
The soldiers lost their weapons and chose to surrender. There was no other way, those haters were already eager to try, and they were worried that they would be beaten to death if they delayed a step further.
"Go and notify all security captains, whether they are on vacation or working, to gather at the mayor's hall before 2 p.m. If you are late, you will not come back again."
Downton ordered while frowning and looking at the messy ground.
"Mr. Mayor, you are busy. These are all trivial matters. I can find someone to clean them. You don't have to worry about it." The tavern owner was very discerning and ran over directly. His waist was slightly bent and he was very humble.
"I won't let you suffer. I will compensate for the broken items according to the price." Downton stood up and left, "In three days, go to the hall to ask my goblin butler for the money."
"My lord is wise, walk slowly!"
The boss was two positions behind and sent Downton as a gift. What he was thinking about was not the small amount of money, but regret. He is indeed a potential stock. If he had been firmer when he wanted to win over him, he would definitely be rewarded now.
, but it's not too late now.
Returning to the mayor's hall again, Downton found that the bathroom had been cleaned, especially the mayor's room, which was spotless, and some decorations full of Franz's imprint had been removed.
"Sir, are you satisfied?" A man came up and reported to Downton, "If you have any instructions, I will do it."
"Well, well done!"
Downton paid enough attention to the first guy who surrendered, so that more people would surrender.
The tavern owner was a sharp-eyed guy. He knew that Downton had not eaten well. Within half an hour, he asked the waitress to deliver ten tables of sumptuous meals, especially the mayor's lunch, which was definitely a luxury level in the small town and the price was not cheap.
Three hundred gold coins.
"Is this the taste of power?" Looking at those people whose attitudes changed drastically, Downton sighed, stopped thinking, and began to deal with official duties.
Fortunately, Homer, a great encyclopedia, was there to guide him, so that he would not be blinded.
The next morning, after receiving the news of Downton's return, Dofink rushed from the Dagger Mine without stopping. As soon as he entered the office, he saw the drastically changed boy working at his desk, next to a woman who had just put down her coffee.
"Mayor, drink it early. It's not good for your health if it gets cold." The woman posed. She wore a long skirt with a deliberately low neckline, revealing a large amount of breasts.
"knew!"
Downton didn't even raise his head.
The woman wanted to keep up her efforts, but when she saw someone coming in, she quickly buttoned up her collar, raised her chin and walked away like a proud swan.
For these townspeople, women who hold public office are full of superiority.
"I'm living a good life. I've only been the mayor for one day and someone is recommending himself for the pillow seat. What's wrong? I don't like it?" Dofink teased Downton.
"My lord?" Downton stood up, smiled and welcomed Dofink in, and shouted to the secretary outside, "Tea!"
"I heard that you beat the mayor and the sheriff half to death and put him in a water prison?" After sitting down, Dofink's tone was a little dissatisfied, "It's too reckless. Your foundation is not stable. If you are resisted,
It will definitely fail."
"Impossible, they will definitely not survive three days." When it fell into Jackson's hands, Downton estimated that they were sent to hell last night. "Don't worry, the evidence is conclusive, and no one can use their stories to hit me."
"Now that it's reached this level, are you going to confiscate your home?"
"Huh?" Downton was stunned.
"Evidence!" Dofink knocked on the table next to him, with a look of hatred on his face.
"Jackson, take the ogre guards and raid those two people's homes!"
Downton came to his senses. Despite Dofink's awe-inspiring words, the actual purpose was their family property. The two of them had been the first and second-in-command in Chenmist Town for more than ten years, and the wealth they accumulated was definitely not a small amount.
"Obey my master!"
Jackson roared and immediately led the team to set off.
"Sir, what's the matter with you coming here in such a hurry?" Downton said to himself that he was still not ruthless enough. Dofink was indeed an old man who had been in the political world, and his attacks were much more vicious, but that
The two guys did so many bad things and ransacked their homes, but he didn't feel any psychological pressure at all.
"Why did you offend Embir? After he came back from the lava secret realm, he immediately sent me a letter, scolding both of us, and saying that he would remove you from the position of mayor."
Dofink stared at Downton, finally able to take a closer look at him. After not seeing him for more than half a year, this boy became more handsome, and most importantly, he had more confidence, which made his temperament change drastically.
"I, Di Polo, this guy is definitely a killer of young girls and young women. He has eaten them all since they were young." Dofink sighed with emotion. Downton would never have to worry about food and drink in his life just because of his face. As long as he can show off his face,
Those lonely aristocratic ladies are definitely willing to keep him.
"I just didn't give him a leg up," Downton said casually.
Dofink was stunned for a moment. He originally wanted to say that this is what you should do, but looking at Downton's eyebrows with flying swords, he swallowed his words.
Although this young man is humble in his dealings with others, he is actually proud in his heart. It is indeed difficult for someone like Embir to willingly serve him.
"Forget it, we are just grasshoppers on the same rope now, I will try my best to mediate for you." Dofink sighed.
"Thank you for your care, sir. By the way, I got a hero-level monster's egg in the secret realm this time. I'm looking for someone to make it into a potion to enhance your physical fitness. Once it's completed, I will arrange for the butler to deliver it to you."
Although in the mine, Dofink's purpose of promoting him was more to defeat Doshaf, Downton remembered this kindness.
"Oh, thank you in advance." Dofink looked happy. The value of a gift of this level would not be less than 100,000, which was a generous gift considering his wealth.
After taking a sip of black tea, Dofink glanced at Downton and asked, "I heard that you not only got the Templar badge, but also became a junior potion master?"
When he first heard this information, Dofink almost beat his subordinate to death. This was too outrageous. Downton was a postman who had never studied much. How could he rely on a potion master? As for the knight status, it should be
Andrea, the officiant, was very helpful.
"That's right!"
Downton nodded matter-of-factly.
What Dofink originally wanted to say was immediately blocked in his mouth, and he looked at Downton stupidly. Although he knew that this young man would become successful, wasn't the process going too fast?
The two guards following Dofink were also dumbfounded. They stared at Downton blankly as if they were seeing a prehistoric beast. Is this something a civilian boy can do?
In the conversation that followed, Dofink was a little incoherent. He had not yet recovered from the shock. It was not until he left that he remembered one thing.
"Ballmer came to me to plead for mercy, and wanted you to let him go." Dofink smiled, "A post office clerk can be considered a small person."
"Okay, let him show up in front of me less in the future, otherwise I can't guarantee that he will do something extreme." Downton still complained about being dismissed. If it hadn't been for him, Du Lun wouldn't have risked his life.
Crow Ridge, as a result, his life and death in the underground city are unknown.
Ballmer, who was waiting for news at the entrance of the town, was relieved when he heard Dofink's reply, but he was also filled with anger. Why could that ant-like commoner become the mayor in the first place? He had to humble himself.
It's really frustrating to not ask for mercy but to hide from others when you see them.
Downton no longer took Ballmer seriously. After handling some urgent business, he returned to the capital and brought everyone back to Morning Mist Town, where he began to prepare for summoning the Fiery Nightmare and the Demonic Servants. (To be continued...
