"However, when Hafiz thought of Mr. Liang's orders, his eyes darkened. He clenched his teeth and said, "Even a four-star alchemist should pay the price for what he has done."
After that, Hafiz also felt that he didn't sound convincing enough. He quickly added, "Mr. Liang of the Wood Fragrance Trading also feels this way."
Devon frowned and said discontentedly, "Mr. Liang is only the manager of Wood Fragrance Trading. Since when did he get the authority to order the City Guards?"
Hafiz was stunned and didn't know how to answer.
After all, in Wood Fragrance City, everyone knew that Mr. Liang had a close relationship with Roche who was the vice president of the Alchemist Association.
Mr. Liang's words were sometimes even more powerful than the mayor's.
However, according to the rules, Mr. Liang was indeed not supposed to give orders to the City Guards.
Facing such a difficult situation, Hafiz looked at Mattham, the Junior Alchemy Master and asked for help, "Mr. Chiang, Mr. Liang did mention that you've got the clearer picture of this matter. He asked me to get some advice from you."
After saying that, everyone present changed their expressions and looked at Mattham.
After all, those standing there were all smart people, of course they could understand what Hafiz was trying to say.
He just wanted Mattham to express his point of view. After hearing from the Junior Alchemy Master, Devon wouldn't be able to continue opposing even if things do not go according to the rules.
After all, between a newly appointed four-star alchemist and a Junior Alchemy Master, it was obvious who everyone would support.
When Mattham heard Hafiz's words, he frowned slightly and did look slightly unhappy.
Of course he knew what Hafiz was trying to say. Normally, it would just be a piece of cake to help him by saying a few words or capturing someone, especially with his good relationship with Wood Fragrance Trading.
However, unfortunately, it was during the period of the Alchemist Association's examination, and there were many alchemists and candidates present. Moreover, Fade also passed the four-star alchemist assessment.
If he openly and directly supported Hafiz on such an occasion, it was likely that he would leave a bad impression on everyone.
Having these thoughts in his mind, Mattham didn't want to say anything.
However, at that moment, he saw Eva looking at Fade with concern in her eyes.
Suddenly, Mattham felt a burst of anger rising from the bottom of his heart and he looked at Fade coldly.
He said, "Although I'm an old acquaintance of
Mr. Liang, I can't support him in this matter."
As soon as he said that, everyone present was shocked. Hafiz and Tommie's expressions changed. They both became anxious and wanted to persuade him.
However, Mattham showed them a gesture of pressing down with both hands and continued speaking.
"The reason why I didn't support him is because what Mr. Qi said just now was right. Mr. Liang has no right to arrest Fade."
"Even if Mr. Chen did have some conflict with the Wood Fragrance Trading, Mr. Liang has no right to arrest anyone personally, because this is the City Guards' job."
"So, I have a suggestion. Mr. Huang can bring Mr. Chen back to the City Guards and investigate this matter carefully. They can handle and make a judgment according to the law."
Hafiz and Tommie, who had been very anxious earlier, started laughing after hearing Mattham's words.
The two of them couldn't wait to clap and cheer.
"No wonder you're a Junior Alchemy Master, such an intelligent mind you've got and your suggestion does sound like a great plan."
"Yes, I'm not here to arrest because of Mr. Liang's orders. I'm here in the name of the City Guards to investigate the case."
Having these thoughts, Hafiz looked at Fade seriously and said, "Mr. Chen, please cooperate and we need you to go back to the City Guards to assist our investigation."
As he spoke, Hafiz waved his hand and the guards surrounded him.
Seeing this situation, Devon showed a trace of anger on his face. Many alchemists and candidates began to whisper with each other.
Because everyone knew Hafiz was just using an excuse to arrest Fade.
The so-called assistance to the investigation was that Fade would still end up being accused by Mr. Liang after being arrested.
However, looking into the rules, Mattham's reason did make sense and no one was able to refute it.
Therefore, even Devon was in a dilemma.
As Hafiz got closer and closer, his right hand was already holding on to a weapon and was ready to fight at any time.
Devon was a little anxious yet helpless.
However, Devon was becoming
more anxious especially when he thought that Fade, who was such an alchemy genius, was likely to bę accused by them. He gritted his
En
teeth and walked towards Mattham.Contentt bel0ngs to N0ve/lDrâ/ma.O(r)g!
Devon stood in front of him and said, "Mr. Chiang, according to the rules of our Alchemist Association, outsiders are not allowed to enter and interfere with our examination before it is over."
"Mr. Huang, I believe this is not the right time!"
Many alchemists sighed and shook their heads after hearing Devon's words.
Everyone knew Matt ham's status within the Alchemist Association.
At that moment, Devon was risking his future as he challenged Mattham in public. He would probably have a hard time in the Alchemist Association in the future.
Mattham's eyebrows trembled slightly, and there was a flash of anger in his eyes.
However, he hid it very well. After a brief pause, he nodded and said, "Mr. Qi, you're right."
"However, this examination is almost over anyway."
"Mr. Huang, please wait for a moment. You can come back to deal with this after the examination is officially over."
After that, the association staff came to Eva and asked, "Miss Xu, do you want to continue the examination?"
Eva shook his head, "No, I don't think so."
After asking, Mattham showed a faint, proud smile and said, In that case, I can officially announce that this examination is over. Mr. Huang, you can deal with the official affairs right now."
"Thank you, Mr. Chiang!" Hafiz cupped his hands to thank Devon and then waved his hand, ready to Arrest Fade once again.
Devon looked helpless at that moment.
Although he knew that Mattham was targeting Fade, he couldn't find any fault with what they were doing, so he could only watch as they arrested
him.
The other alchemists also sighed and shook their heads. They sighed with emotion at the fact that the Alchemist Association was about to lose a potential genius.
But at that moment, Fade suddenly said something.
"Who said that the examination is over?"
Fade snorted coldly and asked, "I don't remember saying that I want to stop the examination, so why is it over?"
"You..." Hafiz was so angry that he almost wanted to curse.
However, he quickly calmed down, looked at Fade and laughed coldly, "Are you saying that you still want to participate in the five-star alchemist test?"
"Of course!" Fade nodded with a serious face."
