---- Chapter 3200 Eric''s body stiffened, feeling a moment of shock and awe. Skr was dead just like that. This was a man from the Nieves family in the Sylvan Peaks; the very reason Eric had been hesitant to act was his fear of Skr''s formidable background Yet now, Andrew had killed him as easily as stepping on an ant Moreover, the severity of the situation went far beyond that. Killing was strictly forbidden within the Martial Tower. If a death urred without a legitimate reason, it would inevitably lead to a military tribunal.
Holtrien had countless martial artists, but none dared to openly defy or challenge the military, the nation''s most powerful institution. Even someone as notoriously arrogant as Julius still avoided the military when he came to Chetvine. Jerome stepped forward quickly and said gravely, "Andy, we should return to the Lloyd family estate first. This matter is bound to cause a storm. If we prepare ourselves before going to war with Guillermo, our chances of winning will be much better." Andrew shook his head. "It''s just one dead guy. There''s no need for any war. Besides, Guillermo is nothing.
He''s not worth calling it a war!" ---- That indifferent, dismissive tone even stunned Jerome. In his mind, Andrew was not somewless, arrogant fool who thought too highly of himself. So, why did he sound so reckless? Just then, someone noticed themotion inside. It was one of Skr''sckeys, and upon looking, he saw that Skr was dead. He immediately let out a terrified scream and ran. "Murder! There''s been a murder here! Someone,e quick!" In moments, the soldiers on duty were alerted. Following them came others who hade to the Martial Tower to train in martial arts.
Soon, the room where Andrew and his group were located was surrounded by people. Among the military personnel, the major leading them, Bryan Johnson, looked extremely grim. "Killing is not allowed in the Martial Tower. Damn it, why would you do such a thing? Take them all away for trial!" He recognized Skr, Lorenzo''s future son-inw and a member of the Sylvan Peaks'' Nieves family. And right now, Guillermo and the Sylvan Peaks'' Nieves family were on excellent terms, building their alliance. The death of an important figure like this meant huge trouble for ---- the military.
As his gaze fell on Andrew, Bryan''s fury intensified. Andrew raised a hand lightly and looked at Bryan. "I''m the one who killed him. You don''t need to take everyone; just take me." Bryan exploded with rage. "How dare you say something like that at a time like this! All three of you here on the scene areing with me. If you dare object, I will resort to extreme measures." A cold glint shed in Andrew''s eyes as his hand shot out. Before Bryan could even react, Andrew grabbed him by the cor and lifted him off the ground. "l1''m warning you, put me down! What do you think you''re doing?
Laying hands on a military officer within the Martial Tower? Even if you''re from a royal family, youlll face severe consequences!" The observing trainees and martial artists erupted in an uproar. Most of those present did not recognize Andrew, as they were primarily a new generation of martial artists who hade to the Martial Tower to hone their skills. They had not yet had the chance to learn about the legend from years past. @
