Chapter 279: Questioning

On the morning of the first day of the public trial, the situation almost turned into an absurd farce.

If the presiding judge was not the strict and dignified King of Kul Tiras, if he were replaced by another person, he might really be squeezed out of the power by Baron Rivendell, so that he would lose face in front of the nobles of the Seven Kingdoms of the Terran Race.

What's more, it made the Kingdom of Quel'Salas and the entire alliance see the joke!

After all, Prince Kael'thas is in the royal city of Lordaeron, and he will participate in this public trial in some capacity; And the dwarves and gnomes, though they refused to attend, refused to appear in court, and refused to make unfounded accusations, but they cared more than anyone about the final outcome of the public trial.

Lunch adjournment.

The royal family of Minethil prepared free, sumptuous and unlimited food and drink, and in addition to the solemn and solemn atmosphere based on the mourning of Sir Lothar, it could actually be regarded as a banquet-like aristocratic event.

"I'm laughing at it! Ha! A little nobleman who relied on the Rivendell family, holding a plate full of fresh and delicious food in his left hand, holding a fork in his right hand, and the back of his hand half-covering the corners of his mouth, said with a little presumptuous disdain.

"You can say it out loud, if you have the guts." So said his companion, Lieutenant Blanco.

The smile on this little Xungui's face immediately froze, and he said in annoyance: "What do you mean?!" I'm sorry for the Baron! ”

"You're here to hold the Baron's grievances? Heh, do you have what it takes? ”

"You!"

"Alright, Jill, let's be safe! You don't look at the people around you! Blanco abruptly accentuated.

"What the hell do you mean?!"

Blanco put down his plate and was very helpless at his companion's stupidity: "You have to know, Jill, at a time like this, there is a price to pay for saying the wrong thing!" Moreover, haven't you noticed that even His Majesty cannot speak freely during the course of the trial? ”

Jill still looked indignant.

"What's more, Lord Baron and His Majesty Dalein have a relationship, don't look at the fact that the two of them did not give in to each other in the trial, and they had a lot of trouble, but it was all to find out the truth, in order to give an explanation to all those who love Sir Dai Lothar."

Jill seemed to understand and listen, and a cold sweat was left on his forehead.

"But you are sarcastic and mocking His Majesty Dalin here, huh...... Honestly, Jill, do you really have the strength and confidence to fight against the King of Kul Tiras? After saying this, Blanco picked up the plate again, "Hurry up, the main event must be still behind, don't delay." ”

It's just that Jill is still in the mood to eat again, he didn't lower his volume just now, and now he turns his head to look around, for fear that someone will hit his little report.

At the same time, it is still an inconspicuous corner.

"Goo...... The thief is a good department! "The big fat man Malvern has an amazing amount of food, and the speed of eating is even more terrifying!

In contrast, Siegel's eating demeanor is much more elegant, full of Terran aristocratic demeanor. And he just glanced at the mountain of food in front of Marvin, and he didn't want to bother anymore.

Malvin didn't mind too much, he finished eating a whole salt-baked chicken and poured a large sip of white wine before he sincerely sighed: "Burp...... Uh, I suspect I've been getting fat lately, and the food in the Terran Kingdom is so good. ”

When Siegel heard this, he showed a look of remembrance, remembering the first meal he had eaten after leaving the cave with Os, the sea and land banquet of the Dalaran Heroes' House.

"What are you thinking?" Malvern kept moving.

Siegel didn't bother to answer, thinking about his own thoughts.

But then again, there were times when he himself was very confused, and it was unbelievable that he could walk with a bronze dragon unharmed and live in peace these days!

Malvin was not unhappy about Siegel's unfriendly attitude, because he had experienced so many things with Os, so he was able to be tolerant and calm towards the arrogant, indifferent, or inferior and pitiful Siegel.

After a few minutes, Marven finished the food on his plate, stood up and came back with a lot of new food, and played the image of the greedy big fat nobleman to the fullest, but the truth was that it was just the normal amount of food for an adult dragon.

He sat down, the fluffy sofa sinking heavily, and suddenly tilted his head again and asked, "Eh, Ao...... Uh, what's your name? West......? Siegel? Siegel, you say, why is that sword gone? Didn't Oss take it with him? ”

All of Siegel's movements, including his heartbeat, suddenly stopped for a second! Immediately after, his eyes narrowed, his expression was cold, the whites of his eyes were bright yellow, his pupils were red, and he glared at Marven viciously: "What are you doing with that damn sword!" ”

Marven replied indifferently: "It was just when I was choosing a meal just now that I saw a person's saber and remembered it." What's wrong? Are you still scared? ”

Siegel was reminded of these words, and the image of the birth of the Divine Will Galakron Dragon Slayer flashed in his mind. He put the plate down and cursed at Malvin, "You're not afraid? Hum! Then next time, you'll stick your stupid head under the edge of that sword and give it a try! ”

"Hmph, you can't scare me." Malvin won't admit that he had a shudder.

The lunch break flies by.

At two o'clock in the afternoon, the public trial resumed on time, and the nobles present at the meeting had already returned to their respective seats.

However, although the way of dealing with and behaving is slightly different, Oss's father, Baron Heiko Gariters, maintains the same position as Baron Rivendell, that is, to actively question the doubts imposed on him!

"Lord Garithar will conquer the world."

The presiding judge, Dai Lin, repeated this sentence with a blank face, without glancing at Oss who was standing beside him: "So, Your Excellency Baron Heiko Garithars, may I ask if the Lord Garithars emphasized in this declaration is you?" Or, isn't it your son, Osmar Garithasus? ”

"Neither." Baron Heiko replied calmly and crisply. Oss's mother, Mrs. Natalie, clutched her husband's one-arm tightly.

"Your answer is not honest, Your Excellency, there is only one and only one surname of Gallisus in all known and documented high societies, low societies, and uncivilized civilizations formed by savage creatures!"

Baron Heiko did not speak.

Dai Lin remained expressionless at all times, his eyes and facial muscles did not change in the slightest from beginning to end: "Please answer, Your Excellency. ”

In the auditorium, Gianna, who was accompanied by Grand Duke Leoric von Zeldiger, could not see what her father was thinking. She gently touched her brother who was sitting on the other side with her elbow and asked in a low voice, "Look at my father's expression now, is there something wrong or nothing?" ”

Prince Gibson's fate also belonged to the one who was changed, and the fluttering wings of the butterfly saved him from the Second Orc War. In the face of his sister's questioning, he smiled and replied in a low voice: "Although I spend more time with my father, I ...... To be honest, when I was with my father, I didn't dare to look up at his face......"

"Hush." Gianna gave a slight criticism.

In the council hall, Baron Heiko in turn shook his wife's cold hands.

"Okay." Seeing Baron Heik's non-answer, Daillin asked instead, "Garinoff Princip, do you know this person?" ”

"Yes." Baron Heiko behaved very crisply again.

"Who is he?"

"A former Lord of Blackwood."

"Why the Lord of Former Blackwood?"

"I, everybody, thought Princip was dead in battle. And he traveled south to Fort Riptide in his personal name to participate in the prisoner reception and ogre naturalization ceremony, without our knowledge. ”

"Please elaborate."

"Four months ago, the orcs and forest trolls attacked East Dalloon Mill, and in the battle of Blackwood, more than sixty percent of the soldiers and civilians of Blackwood were damaged, including Lord Gavrino Princip, who served as a garrison officer."

"Where are the remains? Has it been buried? ”

"There are no bodies."

"Why?"

When asked, Baron Heiko put his arm half-around his wife, and he looked around, his gaze sweeping over the faces of one king after another.

"Excuse me, Your Excellency."

Finally, Baron Heiko glanced at his son, his friend Ilala, and his wife in his arms, and asked without answering: "Suppose one day, Lord Inquisitor, you are assassinated at a banquet, and the assailant shouts after the assassination, 'Your Majesty Gibson will lead Kul Tiras to conquer the world!'" At that time, will His Highness Gibson also have to undergo a public trial as the two of us are now? ”

In the council hall, all the kings and their wives could hold their expressions, look at their noses and noses, and sit back and wait for Dai Lin, who was the presiding judge, to deal with it with full authority.

In the auditorium, all the nobles who recognized Prince Gibson Proudmore looked over in unison. Being stared at by hundreds of pairs of eyes at the same time, Prince Gibson's pretty and tender face suddenly became extremely stiff.

"Brother, will you do this? Replacing his father as the king of Kul Tiras? Gianna asked deliberately and innocently.

"Nope! How...... How could it be! Gibson was startled, he didn't even see that Gianna was making fun of him, and hurriedly stood up and explained loudly, "I never thought of doing this!" The father is the king of Kul Tiras! The Greatest King! ”

Gianna was completely embarrassed......

She closed her eyes and lowered her head, and raised her little hand against her forehead, quite out of sight and out of mind.

Grand Duke Leorik hurriedly stood up, he first pushed Prince Gibson back to his seat, then bowed slightly to the nobles of the Seven Kingdoms, pointed to the council hall, and sat down again.

"I declareβ€”"

Dahlin resisted the urge to reprimand his son, more angry than being questioned by Baron Rivendell and Baron Heiko in court, and announced in one breath: "Tomorrow morning at nine o'clock, the public trial will continue!" Guards, assist the four Speakers in bringing the suspect Osmar Garissus back to the Black Iron Forbidden Chamber! ”

"Leave the court!"
