Chapter 227: If (5)
As soon as martial law was declared, Hunters poured out onto Babylon's streets.
“Kill all intruders!”
The Hunters were wearing black uniforms, the symbol of the Black Dragon Guild, but they weren’t the guild’s reconnaissance or stage clear team. The Hunters that lined up in the plaza were from teams that specialized in resolving conflicts and exterminating threats. They were Hunters of the Tower, but not trained to actually climb the Tower.
“Anyone who cannot present a resident card will be killed, regardless of their reasoning! Those whose resident cards were issued less than a week ago will also be killed!”
“Our guild leader was attacked!”
“This is war!”
“All defiants will be exterminated!”
Gunshots rang out all over the plaza. At the Babel Tower, the production and storage of firearms was strictly controlled. Making a gun without authorization was a crime punishable by death. However, major guilds were excepted from this rule and were always prepared to pick up their weapons and wage war.
The Watchmen League also pulled out their guns and aimed them at the Black Dragon Guild’s suppression team.
“Did the Black Dragon go nuts?! What do those guys think they’re doing?”
“Get out of the way! We must carry out the guild leader’s order!”
