Jaxon accused, "The black market's rules forbid killing, except in self-defense. This person disregarded them, showing blatant disrespect! He looks down on the entire black market!"
Lan's face fell. Turning to Dustin, he exuded an intimidating aura. "Did your guards kill this person?" he interrogated.
Dustin remained silent.
Elisa cried out, "It's him! Many witnessed it! They're our witnesses! Captain Wilson, arrest and punish him!"
Lan glared at Elisa. "I know how to do my job," he said, waving a hand. Law enforcers surrounded Dustin.
"Say nothing, and you'll be sentenced to death," Lan said impatiently.
Dustin chuckled. "Do you recognize me?"
Lan scowled. "I'm impartial when enforcing the black market's rules, even with friends and family. If they break the rules, I won't spare them!" Elisa and Jaxon cheered their approval.
Dustin's face hardened. "It's an insult for Hell Hall to have degenerates like you," he said coldly, but with lethal intent.
Lan's eyes narrowed. Few dared speak of Hell Hall. "Arrest him!" he shouted.
The law enforcers advanced.
"Kill them," Dustin commanded. His Hell Guards swiftly attacked, killing all eight enforcers. Blood spilled as they fell. Dustin recognized their similarity to Lan.
The onlookers were shocked. Dustin had broken the rules, even killing law enforcers! But Elisa and Jaxon were pleased.
Lan's face froze. "You have a death wish? How dare you look down on Hell Hall?!" The name shocked everyone; Hell Hall's reputation was legendary.
"You're the one with the death wish," Dustin retorted coolly. His Hell Guards moved without further instruction.
With a swift strike, Lan was thrown to the ground. His face reddened with rage; his kneecap shattered, rendering him immobile. No one could believe it. Never before had anyone attacked and murdered law enforcers.
"You take bribes and twist the truth! Unforgivable crimes!" Dustin said, looking down at Lan. "Your crimes are punishable by death!"
A Hell Guard swiftly struck Lan's skull; his head cracked, and he fell dead, eyes wide in disbelief.
This exceeded everyone's expectations. Dustin hadn't merely broken the rules; he had utterly defied them. The shocked reactions of Elisa and Jaxon were almost incoherent. Who could have imagined Dustin's audacity in killing the law enforcers' captain?
