He wasn't afraid of the Imperial Guard; even if he killed Sir Pierce, the Imperial Guard wouldn't do anything.
The real reason he hesitated was that Luo Tian was not far away, and killing a nobleman without Luo Tian's permission would be suspected of overstepping his bounds.
Pierce keenly sensed Qin's hesitation, believing it stemmed from Qin's fear of the Imperial Security Department, and quickly spoke up:
"I'm only here to investigate because I'm doing my duty. You have no right to punish me, demigod!"
"Oh? Your job?" Old Man Qin asked sarcastically, "Is your job to frame others at will?"
Pierce hurriedly and anxiously said:
"It was someone who reported it that I started to handle the case!"
Whether it's a false accusation or not, a conclusion can only be reached after the garrison headquarters has conducted a thorough investigation.
"Who is that person?"
Pierce immediately pointed to Liu Sha, who looked panicked in the distance, and shouted, "He's the one who reported you to me!"
Grandpa Qin's gaze fell on Liu Sha.
Liu Sha took a deep breath, barely suppressing the fear and anxiety in her heart.
Sir Pierce's betrayal was not unexpected, or rather, Sir Pierce was bound to back down after Qin revealed his demigod status.
A mere lord whose background is unknown even to a demigod cannot be expected to accomplish anything.
But... he, Liu Shake, is different from Sir Pierce!
He was a time traveler, and after the guild hall was established, he realized that the regent prince must have offered such good conditions because they, as time travelers, were of sufficient value.
The fact that a demigod in disguise is now acting as a security guard at the guild hall further confirms his suspicions.
With his head held high, meeting Qin's oppressive gaze directly, Liu Sha said loudly:
"So what if I reported it?"
Liu Sha's confident and fearless attitude made Grandpa Qin pause for a moment, and then he heard Liu Sha continue speaking:
"So what if you're a demigod? Don't forget who you are!"
"You're just a security guard at the guild hall; it was His Majesty the Regent who granted you the qualification to protect us time travelers!"
“We have long seen your reckless behavior in the guild hall, where you abused your position as a security guard to bully other transmigrators.”
This report is a warning to you!
Grandpa Qin was furious. Even with his good temper, he couldn't tolerate Liu Sha's provocation.
He raised his right hand and brought it down heavily on Liu Sha in front of him.
Feeling the terrifying force that seemed to crush him, Liu Sha, his eyes bloodshot, forced himself to stand firm and shouted:
"I am a member of the guild, a transmigrator valued by His Majesty the Regent. You, a mere demigod, dare to kill me?"
The descending hand suddenly stopped less than five centimeters from Liu Sha's forehead, and the aura that Qin Da Ye had been exuding froze.
Liu Sha, who had survived the ordeal, was panting heavily, and his smile became even brighter.
Since he had already angered this demigod and was bound to face retaliation, Liu Sha decided to take a gamble and use those words to test Grandpa Qin.
As he expected, the more cautious Grandpa Qin was, the more it confirmed his suspicions.
The regent's ideas had a far greater deterrent effect on others than they had imagined.
In this way, by using his identity as a time traveler from the guild hall, he will obtain benefits far beyond what others can imagine.
As long as the regent doesn't come forward to clarify, he can keep tearing this tiger skin off indefinitely.
But the Regent was always elusive, never intervening even during the six-month-long chaos in the capital. How could he possibly care about such a trivial matter between a mere demigod and a transmigrator?
Besides, even if he did notice, it wouldn't matter. Everything he said was true, without a single lie. Considering that the regent was from the same hometown as the transmigrator, he probably wouldn't notice his little attempt to take advantage of the situation.
While feeling smug, Liu Sha also felt a surge of resentment towards the Regent.
"He could elevate the transmigrator's status several levels with just one accurate word, but he was unwilling to relinquish even that tiny bit of power that was insignificant to him."
Do you think you can just give us a few rooms, some food, and a little money to get rid of us? Do you really think we're beggars?!
Some things you just have to fight for yourself!
Thinking of this, Liu Sha looked at Old Master Qin, whose face had turned pale, and said sarcastically:
"That guy who can't see the bigger picture, he's offended so many time travelers and he's still so self-righteous."
If I were you, I would choose to retire early to avoid being purged later after being dismissed!
After saying that, Liu Sha glanced contemptuously at Grandpa Qin and Sir Pierce, whose face was pale in the distance, and turned to leave.
Just as Liu Sha stepped out with his left foot, a fair hand, as if carved from beautiful jade, reached out from the void and gently pressed down on that proud head.
"Oh!"
His proud head was pressed completely into his chest cavity, even the frozen contemptuous expression was preserved intact, and steaming blood splattered everywhere.
The headless corpse swayed and fell to the ground like a puddle of mud, and everyone's attention turned to a calm-looking young man standing next to the corpse.
Despite the close proximity, not a single drop of the splattered blood landed on him, as if the filth was consciously avoiding him.
Almost all the time travelers recognized that the person who made the move was the same administrator who had registered their information when they entered the guild hall.
Slowly withdrawing his right hand, Luo Tian looked at Grandpa Qin with a slightly teasing expression and said:
"He once faced a demigod assassin head-on, but now he's been intimidated by a few words from some trash. It seems that Old Master Qin is truly getting old."
With a wry smile, Grandpa Qin bowed to Luo Tian and said:
"I'm sorry to have made you laugh, Mr. Luo."
Luo Tian's swift and decisive killing shocked everyone present, especially the few transmigrators in the crowd who were excited by Liu Sha's hype.
If Liu Sha had succeeded in building momentum, the status of transmigrators would undoubtedly have risen significantly, but Luo Tiange ruined it.
"You...you actually killed him?"
"Even if you are a manager, you do not have the right to kill members of the Transmigrators' Guild at will!"
"You will bear the wrath of His Majesty the Regent!"
Faced with the onslaught of accusations, Luo Tian wore a calm and collected smile, gently shaking his head with a hint of wistful admiration in his eyes:
"It seems that sometimes when you give too much, a group of dogs that were originally waiting to be slaughtered start to hope that they can become the masters."
But... a dog is still just a dog!
Looking at Grandpa Qin, Luo Tian waved his hand and casually said:
"Starting today, thoroughly investigate all time travelers in the entire guild hall."
Anyone who commits crimes or abuses their transmigrator identity for personal gain after entering the guild hall should be dealt with accordingly!
The time-traveler who had been watching the show instantly changed his expression, and someone immediately stepped forward to accuse him: "Who do you think you are?"
Grandpa Qin realized that Luo Tian was handing over the entire matter to him in a commanding manner, showing that he had no intention of hiding his identity. So he quickly asked respectfully:
"Your Majesty, what should be done with them?"
"Your Majesty, Your Majesty?"
Everyone stared wide-eyed at the gentle-smiling young man before them.
In the entire Great Yin Empire, only two people can be addressed in this way.
Excluding the empress, the identity of the young man before them was now quite clear.
Sir Pierce, who was standing nearby, suddenly felt his legs go weak and sat down on the ground with a thud.
His face was deathly pale as he stared intently at the young man, suddenly realizing why he couldn't find out the man's identity at the city hall.
That's because he was merely a newly promoted nobleman and had no right to access information about His Majesty the Regent.
The time travelers who had been discussing the matter realized the true identity of the administrator, and an eerie silence fell over the scene.
Under those fearful gazes, Luo Tian calmly uttered words that sent chills down the spines of the transmigrators:
"Killing them directly would be too wasteful; they are an excellent source of experience."
I've heard that the bio-battery technology in the Mechanical Empire is quite good. Why don't we just lock them all in nutrient tanks and turn them into bio-batteries? That way, we can save the guild some electricity.
"As long as you don't kill too many at once, you can do with them however you want."
Chapter 339 The Arrival of the Elf Queen! 4000
After dealing with the Transmigrators' Guild, Luo Tian had no desire to go back to work.
Anyway, I had almost finished today's daily experience quest while having breakfast with Grandpa Qin at the entrance, so I went straight home.
Luo Tian left directly, but the two orders he left behind caused a huge uproar throughout the capital.
Many powerful figures believed that a completely new class system was about to be formed, and that the time travelers who would have the political power in the future would be crushed by the regent's words, with no chance of turning the tables.
Those absurd speculations that the regent intended to use the influence radiating from the transmigrators to legitimately seize power in the empire also completely disappeared.
All the nobles could see that the time travelers' foolish behavior this time had completely ruined their future.
Perhaps time travelers will still be able to maintain certain special characteristics in the future, but it will be completely impossible for them to gain political influence based on their identity.
Compared to the insightful perspectives of the nobles, the behavior of the transmigrators inside the Transmigrators' Guild varied considerably.
The self-important transmigrators then realized with despair that the noble treatment they had enjoyed was nothing more than a single sentence from Luo Tian.
With just one sentence, Luo Tian could make many nobles fear contact with the transmigrators, cutting off their channels for advancement through nobility and politics. Naturally, he could also strip them of everything they currently enjoy with just one sentence.
Fear, unease, resentment, calmness, disdain... a variety of emotions appeared on the faces of the time travelers.
Of course, among the transmigrators, those who felt it most deeply were the ones who used the Regent's power and their transmigrator status to seek personal gain.
After Grandpa Qin personally identified each of the "rule-breaking" transmigrators, everyone felt fear.
Several alchemist saints arrived at the guild within ten minutes and spent less than two hours carving out a huge base underground.
The God of Machines issued a divine decree, ordering the demigod pope of the Machine Church in the distant Machine Empire to use a teleportation array to travel to the Great Yin Empire and personally handle the bio-battery that Luo Tian had mentioned.
Although this bio-battery is not a high-tech device, and even a beginner-level second-tier mechanical system superhuman could assemble it himself, the Mechanical Pope still chose to do it himself without hesitation.
Because the Mechanical Pope was well aware of what kind of opportunity this was, if it weren't for the fact that the God of Machines had a wide following in the Star World and needed to save face, he probably would have personally descended upon the capital immediately.
The current situation is simply due to Luo Tian's words.
