Chapter 166: Invitation to Observe Punishment

No one can make a mistake without paying for it, especially civilians.

The generous Duke of York granted the right to hang thugs caught in the riots.

As the honorary sheriff of the Rubble District, Extraordinary receives an invitation from Sheriff James Benson.

Hanging is the most common punishment used on the mainland, one is to ensure the safety of the prisoner, and the other is to show the greatest respect for the deceased.

A total of 50 of the most vicious thugs were executed.

As the senior officials of the Sheriff's Department announced the crimes of the fifty thugs kneeling at the scene one by one, the gallows were pulled up after a single gunshot.

"Hang them, burn them!"

The city guards held the surging crowd around the execution ground with spears in hand.

For a time, there were old and weak, men and women.

Weeping and wailing, angry scolding rang out all around.

According to Sheriff James, Extraordinary knew that the bodies of these people would be exposed for three days after being hanged, and that relatives would take them away after three days.

The chieftain would be treated better, and the noose around his neck would be hung on the walls of the outer and inner cities until his body was pecked clean by various birds.

"Execution!"

At noon, with the order of the sheriff with a black veil, the executioner, covered with black gauze, pulled down the winch in his hand.

"Bang!"

A row of ten thugs, at the moment of falling, swings back and forth like a broken sack on a rope.

Several thugs struggled with their bound limbs, and after a dozen seconds, they came to a standstill.

Prominent red eyeballs, drooling tongues.

This is also the first time I have seen such a scene, and I can't bear it, so I cast my eyes on the remaining kneeling thugs.

"What's the matter, doesn't it look uncomfortable?"

Sheriff James on the side calmly commented on the extraordinary, and handed over an orange.

"Put it on your nostrils and smell it, maybe it will make you feel better!"

Nodding gratefully at James, he has also killed extraordinary people, but it's not as simple as that.

I can't say what I felt in a specific way, but the thug hanging on the gallows was blown up by the wind, like a ragdoll washed and drained.

"The gods teach us to respect life, not to show mercy to such criminals. ”

"You know that this riot, with less than a thousand rioters, caused nearly 10,000 civilian casualties. ”

"There was only one gas manufacturing plant, and the explosion caused by the thugs who infiltrated it killed 200 people in the entire front-line factory at a time!"

Trying to squeeze out a smile, Extraordinary also knew that this was James's kind persuasion, but, strictly speaking, Extraordinary has only been in this world for half a year.

His three views do not allow him to be indifferent.

The two of them are on the arrow tower in front of the Grand Duke's Mansion, the two arrow towers on the left and right of the gate are connected together, and a large platform is full of big people with heads and faces in the inner city, and the extraordinary seats are still particularly backward.

After the execution, the people who came to watch the execution were arranged to have lunch in the ducal palace.

Seeing the extraordinary being invited by the Grand Duke, James paused for a few seconds and followed the flow to the restaurant.

Familiar paths, familiar environments, there are no traces of destruction inside and outside the entire Grand Duke's Mansion.

The butler led Extraordinary to the outside of the duke's study, made a gesture of please, and left.

Pushing the door in, before Extraordinary could adjust to the light and darkness in the room, a figure rushed into Extraordinary's arms.

"Brother Cordo Extraordinary, it's great that you're okay!"

The unashamed Grand Duke sat behind his desk, on either side of the table where Uvana and Adams stood on one side.

This bear hug that welcomes you is undoubtedly Trunks.

Reaching out to rub Trunks' hair, Extraordinary walked over to the table and bowed.

"Extraordinary, no need to be polite. Let me introduce you, Adams, my firstborn!"

The two saluted each other, and their extraordinary expressions were very strange, but they were not understood by the three people beside them.

Adams, who had been knocked on the ground a few times, didn't know that one of the initiators was in front of him, and if he did, his expression lit up.

"Father, you won't stop me from following Big Brother Extraordinary to the Academy of Magic this time!"

The Grand Duke smiled and nodded, and then left only the extraordinary, and the trio saluted and left.

Seeing that the door was shut, the Grand Duke of York stretched out his hand and motioned for Extraordinary to sit opposite.

"I've heard the battle at the top of Berman Tower, Master Samuel Walker, and the boy Percy has been clamoring to see you!"

After a pause, the Grand Duke of York took the shredded tobacco from the pipe tray on the table and compacted it into the pipe.

"Smack"

Before the Grand Duke could pick up the fire box, flames erupted from his fingers and he pestleed.

"Some?"

Putting on the flame and lighting the fire, the Grand Duke pushed over the cigarette tray and gave it a look.

There is also a small sparkling pipe on the tray.

Looking at the delicate and precious little pipe, if you get started with it, although the Grand Duke will not say anything, there will be a trace of unhappiness in the bottom of my heart.

"Thank you, Archduke, bring yourself, bring yourself!"

As he spoke, a box of cigarettes appeared in Extraordinary's hand.

The exquisite mahogany and the locks made of pure gold and gemstones attracted the attention of the Grand Duke just by their appearance.

"Mistake, mistake!" Although there is reluctance in my heart, the extraordinary thing that usually pretends to be thirteen can only be cut off.

"Would you like one?"

refused the extraordinary respect, but then saw that the cigarette in the extraordinary hand was only lit until one was smoked.

"This cigarette doesn't have to be lit as often?"

Again, the Grand Duke did not refuse.

saw an old man and a young man, two smoking guns swallowing clouds and spitting smoke, and a small cigarette instantly pulled in a lot of feelings between the two.

This kind of interpersonal communication is really not too simple for extraordinary.

"Trunks is up to you!"

It was very easy to talk about Yorkshire events and the operation of the Extraordinary Chamber of Commerce, and when the Grand Duke suddenly said something serious, Extraordinary straightened his back.

"This, Grand Duke, do you know that in the second half of the year, there will be a duel competition between the four academies of the Magic Academy, right?"

There is also competition between the four institutions of higher learning in Yorktown, and only through competition can they be divided into the best and attract more talented students.

The tone is very light, but the words spoken are a little heavy.

For the sake of Trunks' safety, the only people in the Academy of Magic knew his identity were Dean Leslie and the Extraordinary two.

This is all secondary, the key is the evaluation of the four academies in the second half of the year, and the magic battle is a major item, and all magic apprentices will participate in it.

There are accidents every year, and as an insurer, he knows better than the old man in front of him.

"There's no way around it, isn't it? too much about protection is pushing the child into the abyss!"

About the Archduke's eldest son, Adams, Extraordinary has learned a little through Anthony.

The two lives are extraordinary, of course, I know that the youngest in every family is the one that my parents love the most.

With the endorsement of the Duke, it was very easy for the extraordinary to go.

With Trunks' example, Uvana is even more interested in sparring with Extraordinary.

It wasn't until a date was agreed with the eldest lady that Uvana let Extraordinary leave with Trunks.
