Chapter 813: Power
After Count Luke showed such strength, even the nobles of Dunno, who were slow to react, felt that things were not going well.
Now someone immediately jumped out to accuse Congressman William :
"Sir William has really gone too far. He has no respect for us at all."
"Yes, cooperation between the two sides must be based on mutual respect."
"Equality, mutual benefit, win-win cooperation."
“…”
But at this time, Luke did not express any loyalty to the nobles. He just held out his hand to William with an indifferent expression.
"Give us the title deed. We want to take it back."
Although he was completely suppressed by Count Luke, since the other party did not attack him again, William, as a mage, reacted quickly. This was due to his identity as a representative of the Mages Guild and a member of the Calais Council.
He immediately took out the photo stone and said
"Your Excellency, I have recorded the whole process with magic. This matter..."
Bang!
Luke bent his finger and the photo stone exploded out of thin air.
"What is a photo stone?"
Looking at the photo stone powder in his hand, William was also trembling all over.
There was anger, but also a hint of fear.
What a fierce energy!
The other party's mastery of breathing techniques has reached a very advanced level!
But he still took a deep breath and said
"The title deed to the Mage Tower is the property of the Mage Guild. We paid for it."
"You were deceived by Sente. You can go find him. It doesn't matter if you don't take the deed. I am the Lord of the East Land. I will scrap the original copy and make a new one. Mage Sente participated in the rebellion. The Mage Tower will be reclaimed and confiscated and given to Mage Wang Yi."
Luke started reading it directly, and the clerk who came over also started recording it quickly.
"You are being unreasonable and robbing people by force!"
William came out with the title deed, his face full of indignation.
"Reason? Do you deserve it?"
Luke sneered, which made William feel extremely embarrassed, but he seemed very calm at this moment.
This time I really didn't expect the result to be like this.
I had originally wanted to come here and play the 'art of compromise' with Luke.
Relying on the nobles of Donno City that they had won over, relying on the land deeds in their hands, and relying on the results of this Mage Guild assessment, it can be said that they had already occupied all the innate advantages.
But all of this became worthless after the other party broke it with brute force !
The nobles who sensed something was wrong switched sides on the spot and became loyal subjects again.
The golden tiger was beaten to death with one blow, the photo stone was shattered, and the title deed was not recognized. There was absolutely no way out!
This man doesn't look like a lord at all, he doesn't look like a noble at all!
If you don't know how to compromise, how can you balance this huge territory? Relying solely on force will not work!
"Senator William, I see that your face is dark, and I'm afraid you are not in good health. If you die suddenly in our Dunno City, please don't slander us."
Luke's words made William's face turn red, but he kept all the subsequent words in his stomach and dared not say any more.
The Earl of Flame seemed to be acting rashly this time, but he had already used the best excuses at the very beginning.
That was the previous assassination incident!
Does the result of torture matter? Does torture matter?
That's what he said anyway.
Even if he acted a little too radically, the Calais Federation would not really go to war with the Principality of Kerton over this matter.
The Calais Federation has a great influence, and in fact it controls many areas of the economy in disguised form.
But his performance so far has been considered as "peace-loving".
If there is a direct conflict with the Principality of Croton, Calais will definitely win, but in fact it will lose more.
What would other people think? No matter how strong Calais was, he couldn't defeat them all...
"Just because you are worried about losses, you are hesitant and timid. After all, this is the mindset of a businessman. Haha, after all, you are just a group of businessmen."
Luke walked up to William, whose face was flushed, took the deed back with disdain, and then threw it in the direction of Wang Yi.
Wang Yi also raised his hand to catch the deed and said
"I'll trouble you, Your Excellency, with the subsequent change procedures."
Wang Yi sensed some changes in Luke's mood, and a smile appeared on his face. He casually reminded
"Being suppressed for too long is sometimes not a good thing for an individual..."
At the last dinner, Wang Yi discovered that Luke was not keen on power. Most likely, this lord of the East was forced to come here. After all, there were only three great knights in the Principality of Kedun, and he was the younger brother of the current Grand Duke. For the sake of the principality, the family, and his brother, he had to bite the bullet and come here.
Luke had been suppressing himself for a long time, compromising with the nobles, doing all kinds of shit, for the sake of the overall situation, for the sake of his relatives.
Legend is a very critical stage, and it requires a very high level of mind.
If he continues to be so busy with mundane affairs, his chances of making a breakthrough will probably become smaller and smaller.
And this time, it was the same group of nobles who had made him compromise before who came to support the Calais MPs for the sake of their own interests. Just for the airship dock, Luke finally made up his mind.
This is actually a kind of liberation.
For him personally, it was a spiritual transformation...
Luke was also thinking about his change at this time. After hearing Wang Yi's reminder, he nodded.
"Thanks."
Then he asked
"Do you have any other requests from them? If you still want the president of the Mages Guild, I will let him take another test. If you don't want him, then you don't need the president of the Mages Guild. There will be no Mages Guild in Dunno City in the future."
Luke made the decision directly for William, and did not allow William the right to refuse. As long as Wang Yi nodded, he would continue with the "assessment" and pass it!
If you don't want to be shameless, then I won't give it to you...
"I don't like the trouble anyway, so I just need this Mage Tower. However, I am somewhat interested in the blood of the barbarians, so I need a test material with the best high-level knight's physique..."
Even Count Luke was stunned by Wang Yi's casual words.
William said directly
“You dare!”
In response, Wang Yi just sneered.
"I'm just letting you know. I'll get the materials myself, so I won't bother you."
As he spoke, several chains appeared out of thin air outside the Mage Tower and pierced through the golden tiger that was still lying on the ground.
The sudden groan seemed to prove that this guy had woken up.
Although many bones in his body were broken and he suffered considerable injuries.
But at this time he still began to struggle violently, roaring continuously.
But no matter how he struggled, the chain became tighter and tighter, and finally pulled directly into the sky.
It’s the experimental floor of the Mage Tower!
It was pulled directly in through the window, and then stopped moving.
Luke's face looked a little weird at this moment.
He already thought that he had been quite arrogant before, which was completely different from his previous style.
But I didn't expect that there was someone even more arrogant here.
Just keep the person here!
However, although Luke, who had just made up his mind, was surprised, he did not stop it, but smiled heartily.
"We were only notified that the examiners from the Mage Guild would come. It is reasonable that a barbarian who casually hurt people sneaked into the city and was captured and suppressed."
As the Lord of the East and the Master of the City of Dunnor, Earl Luke directly completed the characterization of this matter.
"You can't do this! Let go of Jin Hu! Can't we just leave?!"
William spoke quickly.
Jin Hu is his good friend, he can't just watch him fall into the devil's den!
He knew best the nature of mages. Even he had tricked Jin Hu into losing several tubes of blood. If he was really caught by other mages and used as experimental material, the consequences would be disastrous!
Death is sometimes a relief...
"I wouldn't mind having one more material for a high-level wizard's experiment."
Wang Yi glanced back at William and said in a strange tone
"Shouldn't good friends be together and neat and tidy?"
These words made William's pupils shrink.
Even the nobles present felt their scalps tingling.
It's over.
The Earl suddenly stopped pretending, and now there is a wizard who captures people for experiments at will. How is he supposed to live in the future?
