I seem to be an evil god

"I hope you will be more conscious and hand him over. There is a price to pay for offending the strong."

The entanglement between Vivian and Burke has made Liu Dao impatient. He now has a master-level expert at hand. There is no need to waste time in dealing with these novices who are not even professional level.

"Ha ha."

As soon as Liu Dao said his words, the surrounding atmosphere instantly turned cold. The sailors and workers all had a look of fear in their eyes, but Burke, the leader, suddenly laughed and stared at Liu with a mocking look. road.

"I don't know what you want to do, do you want to do something? Have you forgotten the master-level non-competition agreement? Master Vivian, don't forget who rules this city. Do you want to break the rules they set?"

Vivian frowned upon hearing this, and whispered in Liu Dao's ear that in order to prevent the market imbalance caused by force in commercial operations, the Noble Council, together with the Church of Light and the Demon Hunters Guild, issued a law.

This law prohibits military competition between two competing parties in the same industry. Once there is evidence that a strong person from Party A has caused harm to the personnel of Party B, then Party A will face the iron fist of justice from the Lion City.

Moreover, the judgment of the evidence is very vague, and even some far-fetched assumptions are allowed. This has resulted in the market atmosphere in the Lion City being always harmonious.

This kind of law that restricts the powerful is simply impossible to appear in ordinary cities. Often only capitals, large port cities, or land gateway cities will have such laws to protect the market.

The reason why the Lion City has such strange regulations is most likely determined by its political system. More than a dozen powerful families rule the city through a parliamentary system. Only within this political scope of mutual restraint can such regulations be introduced. A law that establishes rules.

After roughly understanding the situation, Liu Dao's face became ugly. Although this dock guild was nothing, it had a record at the Mining Department. This record was being held up proudly by President Burke at this time.

“How come these people who are making a living at sea have registrations from mining companies?”

Liu Dao asked Vivian in a low voice. Unexpectedly, the words were heard by Burke on the opposite side. The middle-aged president laughed and said in a slightly contemptuous tone: "There are also mineral deposits under the water. Our guild conducts mines every year." Isn’t it normal to have registration and qualifications to provide several tons of iron ore to Lion City?”

"Hahaha, this pretty boy probably doesn't know anything. I'm afraid he has never swum in his life."

"Haha, I might have had some experience swimming. After all, the bathtubs are so big now, so it's really possible for this little guy to turn over in it."

"Turn over! How?"

"Of course it's like we grilled salted fish!"

"Ha ha ha ha…"

As soon as President Burke finished speaking, the sailors around him started laughing skillfully. It seemed that more than one guest asked such questions, which made these ordinary joking sentences achieve the effect of making people laugh.

Liu Dao glanced around the field with a cold gaze. The last time he was ridiculed like this was when he faced the Church of Light. This unpleasant atmosphere had a great impact on Liu Dao, and a red light flashed in his left eye.

At this time, Vivian gently pulled Liu Dao from the side, gave him a calm look, and continued to speak to Burke.

"The non-compete agreement can indeed limit my actions, but do you really think about angering a master? Angry a master who can control summoned objects?"

Vivian's words made Burke feel cold all over. The sailors around him had not yet realized the meaning of these words. At this time, Vivian said in a calm tone:

"It's not safe in Bear City these days. It would be bad if some wild alien species came in and killed all the guild members."

"If someone is alive to report the crime, it will indeed activate the non-compete agreement, but if they are all dead, it is just an ordinary case."

The word killing stimulated everyone's hearts. Vivian's sneer spread throughout the hall, making everyone who laughed at Liu Dao shut their mouths.

"Master Vivian, why bother getting along with little people like us? We can barely be considered peers. Don't let a little conflict hurt our friendship."

Burke put on a smile at this time, and Liu Dao's expression suddenly relaxed, "Call out all the professionals in your guild. We have some small questions to ask them."

"Of course, of course."

President Burke agreed with a smile on his face, but Vivian beside Liu Dao was still frowning slightly. Liu Dao looked over in confusion, but Vivian just shook his head gently.

After a while, President Burke, who was sweating profusely, came back from behind. As soon as he opened the door, he shouted sorry to Liu Dao, and then explained that none of the professionals in the guild were here. The official explanation was that he had accepted the mission and went to sea.

Hearing this, Liu Dao's color instantly darkened, but President Burke looked as if he hadn't noticed. He still said sorry with a smile on his face, but he would not give in to Liu Dao's request to enter and search.

"Behind the hall are important secrets of our guild, and there are many tombs of our ancestors built in the back. If you have any questions, we can help you search them. If you two really want to go in, then just step on my body."

Liu Dao looked at the uncooperative President Burke angrily. Now Vivian's identity has become a restriction. The other party used the interests of the Smith Group and Vivian's reputation as a threat, and actually let the master Vivian Unable to advance or retreat.

It's too late to talk about revenge now. After all, Vivian is not the only master in the Army City. As long as you want to stay in the upper class circle, your personal reputation cannot be too bad.

In order to avoid being gossiped about later, Vivian will not be able to take action against the dock guild for at least two or three months. By then, the person who planted the mark will have long since run away. This will not do any good except attract a lot of criticism. .

"What conditions do you have, just tell me. We must find this professional today. This is related to the dignity of a master, even if he kills everyone, he will not hesitate."

Vivian's words made Burke's attitude calm down. He did have the idea of ​​​​keeping this brother at first. After all, the guild under him is not a big guild. Every professional can be said to be an important resource of the guild. To preserve nature, we must preserve it.

However, Vivian's words have already reached this point, and Burke really has no confidence in the casual revenge of a low-level master. At this point, he can only sell this unsightly brother at a good price.

President Burke was thinking about the conditions. Things happened suddenly today. He was not prepared to make any demands at all. Although the benefits given by a master were very comprehensive, but combined with the relationship between the two parties today, most of the terms and requirements required time. None of them are suitable.

So besides getting a tilt in resources, what other ways can we use to make a guild stronger?

President Burke was thinking hard, and then the corner of his eye suddenly caught sight of the Summoner's emblem on Vivian's clothes, and his eyes lit up instantly.

"Master Vivian, I have already thought of the conditions. I want you to... fight with me."
