Chapter 637: Chapter 22 Tax Resistance_3

Winters made a gesture—his left thumb pressing down on his ring finger, showing it to Colonel Moritz.

His gesture was the standard spellcasting hand sign used by the Alliance spellcasters.

Moritz stopped his movement, his brow furrowing even tighter.

Winters had stopped using hand signs for spellcasting, since he fought using only two spells and saw no need for gestures; he was now pursuing speed and explosive power.

Colonel Moritz had even less need for hand signs in his spellcasting, as he fought using only one spell.

Perhaps it was precisely this slight advantage in speed that had just saved Winters.

However, he was now uncertain whether the other party was indeed a spellcaster.

Seeing through Winters' thoughts, Moritz spoke gravely, "Don't fuss over it; if you killed him, you killed him. You did right—if error must be made, better to kill wrongly than give him a chance."

General Adams was doomed not to receive Captain Montaigne's reply.
