269 The war between Beta and Cheandia has only just begun...... Is it?

When Richie announced the punishment, there was silence in the square for a moment, and then there was a surge of applause.

The holy warriors looked at Cheyenne in astonishment, they naturally would never accept such a verdict. Nama was even more tearful, if it weren't for Cheyenne stopping them with her gaze, and the red-clothed guards of Beta City were also blocking them, most of them would have rushed to the stage to grab people.

Gronya's face turned pale, and then she eased up to show that she was exactly the same.

Mayne was really frightened at this time, and hugged his arms and cried, "How can this be? I will scream so hard when I am whipped in front of so many people!"

Cheyenne waved the paladin to silence, and then he spoke. Everyone thought he was going to object, but they didn't expect that Li Qi and Cheyenne had already negotiated.

But Xia An's speech also stunned Li Qi.

"Everyone should know who I am, Cheyenne of Cheyendia, these holy warriors who have made mistakes, they all call me a mentor. ”

"I feel guilty for not doing my duty to teach them, causing irreparable damage to the innocent people of Beta City and tarnishing the justice of the Holy Warriors of Cheandia. ”

The words of the legendary paladin, without the need for a megaphone, echoed throughout the square, clearly reaching everyone's ears.

"Justice is a hard path of faith, and the holy warriors who embark on this path are burdened with too many expectations and too many harsh criticisms. Although the light of the god of justice shines on us, the paladin has been confused and has never found the right direction. ”

"I led the Paladins to establish Cheyendia on the Plateau of the Fallen Gods, hoping to find the right path. Our quest has just begun, and young people are always in a strong state of blood, and they cannot avoid being blinded by emotions and disturbing their beliefs. ”

"I am not begging you to forgive these holy warriors for their mistakes, but I want to illustrate the difficulty of the path to justice. Not everyone can be a holy warrior, and the divine light of justice of Longer is not something that everyone can carry. ”

"Some of these holy warriors who have committed mistakes have deviated from the path of justice and come to the brink of depravity!"

Cheyenne's words made the bodies of the holy warriors on the stage who were imprisoned in a circle of golden light tremble, except for two people, one was Jenny, who was expecting his mentor to save him, but he didn't expect such a response, which made him feel that his mentor had become extremely unfamiliar. The other was Gronia, tugging at the corners of her mouth slightly, as if sneering.

"I'm glad that most people still have room to save themselves, even in the face of misunderstandings, even if they may be harmed, they can restrain themselves and don't kill anyone. ”

"Erasing a life is an incomparably heavy thing for a paladin. Although the holy warriors have not yet fully seen the path of justice, the starting point of the path of justice, every holy warrior will not forget, otherwise he will deviate from the faith and become a degenerate, what is this starting point?"

Cheyenne scanned the square, everyone seemed to make eye contact with him, and his heart was subconsciously rolling.

"The starting point is to protect good and eradicate evil. No matter how much the holy warriors did something that caused everyone a headache, in their hearts, this was the most sacred law, otherwise, they would not be called holy warriors. ”

There was silence in the square, and a few people nodded at first, followed by countless others.

That's true, although the paladin has a strange temperament and is annoying, but when it comes to evil, the paladin is really more trustworthy than others.

Cheyenne continued: "Most of these holy warriors who are on trial can still stick to such a starting point, but some have abandoned the bottom line. ”

"Jenny Fontos!"

Cheyenne pointed to the young paladin: "What made you forget the creed of the paladin, killing civilians without a threat to their lives, without going through the necessary trial?

Jenny's mouth was open and closed, like a fish struggling on a board, but he couldn't say a word.

Although the paladin is arrogant and behaves perversely, he still has a bottom line. For example, there are three rules of murder: the threat to life, the necessary trial, and the detection of evil.

Of course, this law is also adapted to local conditions, and for the nobles, the church, and the adventurer, the balance of power makes the holy warriors abide by the law. For civilians, it is equivalent to no restraint, whether to stick to the law or not, it depends on the holy warrior himself.

"As the Mentor of the Holy Warrior of Cheandia, I declare that you will be stripped of your status as a Paladin of Jenny Fontos! From now on, you are just a murderer, no longer a Paladin!"

Cheyenne's righteous and awe-inspiring "verdict" made the square burst into cheers.

This guy is really going to get rid of it, so the attempt to use the public trial of the holy warrior to hit Xia Andia's reputation will be in vain.

Li Qi sighed secretly, it was impossible for him to stop a legendary paladin from speaking, and the other party's IQ had not dropped, so it was inevitable to use this trick. So such a goal was unrealistic from the beginning.

But it's nothing, as long as the citizens and adventurers of Beta City can see that in front of the Fei Gong, even the holy warriors can't do whatever they want in the name of justice. This main goal had been achieved when Cheyenne bowed her head and approved the trial of the Holy Warriors.

As for the competition between Beta City and Xia Andia on the Divine Fall Plateau, it is a long time to come, and there is no hurry.

"Mentor!?"

Jenny finally shouted, his cheeks twisted, and he said in despair: "Isn't justice in my heart? Isn't my decision a righteous judgment? I am a holy warrior! As long as I am a holy warrior, isn't the evil I consider evil to be evil!?"

Nama in the audience was not so excited, and whispered with tears: "Jenny......"

On the stage, Gronia sighed lowly, and secretly said that you are right, but whether you can make a move, what will be the consequences after making a move, you have to think about it, this is also your own lesson.

The sacrifice of the paladin must be worthwhile, and when the evil is too strong, the paladin must be good at preserving his strength and leaving him useful. Not only have you forgotten all the provisions of these canons, Jenny, but I have also done the same.

It's just that you're not lucky enough, if I hadn't been knocked unconscious by the little girl with the big sword, I would have ended up in the same fate as you.

Cheyenne said calmly: "Jenny Fangtos, when you break the law, you will no longer be a holy warrior!"

"No ——!"

Jenny cried out frantically, "Impossible! I'm a paladin! It's not up to you to decide whether I'm a paladin or not, it's up to Ronder to decide!" You see...... Look, everyone......"

He tried to gather divine power and use the Evil Destroying Slash, but his arm swung wildly, but no trace of golden divine light came out.

"My Righteous Force!Your Majesty Dragon!Why did you abandon me??Why did you ......?"

Jenny sat on the ground with straight eyes, on the verge of a nervous breakdown.

The holy warriors looked awe-inspiring, and the audience in the audience was also stunned. Sure enough, the paladin will turn away from his faith, and even if he does not fall, he will lose the favor of Longerde and no longer have the power of justice.

Li Qi noticed that Cheyenne's hand shrunk in his sleeve trembled slightly, in his perception, there was nothing surprising, just like a legendary paladin of civilians, but at this time, a layer of invisible divine power was shrouded around his body, vaguely expanding and contracting.

This guy actually came to the yin......

Jenny can't use his divine power, so naturally Cheyenne is the ghost. But there is no need for Li Qi to expose it, this is an unspeakable trouble for the holy knights.

The original holy warriors would also fall into depravity due to their abandonment from their beliefs and become strange beings such as black warriors. But after the division of the Dragon's will, no matter how evil the paladin did, as long as he firmly believed that it was righteous in his heart, he could still obtain the power of justice. Only those who are not strong-willed will collapse their faith and go to depravity.

It's not just a problem for the paladins, it's true for all clergy, and the power of faith can be distorted. Isn't Theresia's break with the Loyal Divine Court due to something like this?

Most people do not know the underlying principles of the power of faith, and they have the inherent impression that as long as they can obtain the power of the gods, it means that their faith is firm.

Cheyenne expelled Jenny from the paladin team and suppressed his righteous divine power, which perfectly separated Jenny from Cheyendia and the paladin, so that the execution of Jenny would have a minimal impact on the Cheandia paladin.

Cheyenne continued: "I have no objection to the decision, this is the punishment they deserve!"

Nama and the others were weak and supported each other so that they would not soften. On the stage, Gronia and the others were physically tense, although they would not be executed, but the whipping they were about to endure was not only whipping the body, but also whipping their dignity.

Cheyenne sighed again: "Today's trial will be very rare, I have learned a lot of things, and I would like to express my gratitude to everyone. ”

He nodded to Richie: "I would like to thank the Duke of Prell even more, he showed me justice from another angle, which inspired me a lot." ”

Li Qi smiled slightly and returned the salute, but his heart jumped, this beard is about to fight back!

Listen to Cheyenne say: "I hereby promise the duke and everyone that the holy warriors of Cheyendia will find a new path of justice. And this trial, I believe that not only me, but all the holy warriors of Xia Andia will also learn from it and re-examine their faith. ”

He raised his voice, letting every word fall heavily into people's hearts: "On behalf of all the holy warriors of Xia Andia, I apologize for this time and all the trouble and trouble caused to everyone before!"

"At the same time, on behalf of all the holy warriors of Cheandia, I promise you that we will continue to uphold justice and bring justice and peace to the lawless land of the Godfall Plateau. The Paladin will be the favorite companion of the good and the enemy that the evil will fear the most!"

"The Paladins are building Cheyendia into a place of the best kind, where everyone is safer, free, comfortable, and friendly to one another. In Ciandia, there will be no place for sin, and it will be the best home for everyone. ”

Cheyenne glanced at everyone and smiled confidently, "The Holy Warrior is fair and good at correcting mistakes. As long as it is indeed the fault of the holy warriors, even if it is openly tried like now, I, as the mentor of the holy warriors and as a legend, will uphold justice and never protect it!"

There was a roar of applause, followed by loud applause.

As a legend, he did not rely on strength to protect his own people, but was impartial and upright, and categorically expelled the holy warriors who deviated from their beliefs, and other holy warriors also received punishments. The holy warriors of Xia Andia are led by such people, and the future is bound to be bright, and the place of Xia Andia must also be a good place.

Li Qi took a deep look at Cheyenne, worthy of being an old man, and turned the matter of the public trial of the Holy Warrior into an advertisement for the Charian Saint Warrior!

In the earth world, how much advertising money will be paid for such a roadshow, at least thirty or fifty per head! This Cheyenne actually borrowed his own hands to make free publicity!

Cheyenne also replied with a deep gaze, although there was no provocation in the slightest, but what she said just now was aimed at Beta City.

Another war seems to have begun, a war for hearts and minds that will decide who will dominate the order of the Godfall Plateau between Beta City and Cheandia.

"Let's execute, then......"

Cheyenne sighed faintly: "I will watch without blinking." ”

On the high platform, Jenny knelt with his hands tied upside down, and a team of red-clad guards armed with magic spears fought behind him.

Li Qi casually ordered a guard: "You come to execute." ”

It was a trainee, and he had only mastered the zero-level Divine Soul Touch, and the magic spear was the only weapon he could use to compete with the transcendent.

The guard's face turned red, and he tried to restrain his excitement, but because he was too hard, the muzzle of the magic guide gun still flickered.

"The first public trial meeting in Beta City, the criminal Jenny Fangtos, killed three people, sentenced to execution, and immediately executed!"

Li Qi's sentence made tens of thousands of people feel extremely novel, and he was executed......

Confirming Richie's nod, the guard took a deep breath and pointed his gun at the back of Jenny's head, not resisting death, as he had done countless times of training, using a psychic touch.

Blue light burst out, and with a muffled pop, the bullet shot into the back of Jenny's head, splattering a cloud of blood.

The bullet did not penetrate his forehead, and the young paladin kept his head down and could not see his expression, and when the shot hit, his head shook and he fell forward, his body convulsing violently.

After about ten seconds, the convulsions stopped, and the two priests who were standing beside him, and the two priests in red clothes with white water pattern logos embroidered on the chest and back stepped forward. They turned Jenny's body over, one to check his breath and heartbeat, and the other to check the condition of his soul.

During the whole process, the other holy warriors either bowed their heads or turned their heads, only Xia quietly watched.

The priest announced: "Criminal Jenny Fontos, confirmed dead!"

Xia An's eyes flashed slightly, and the thousands of people in the audience also felt heavy.

Among these tens of thousands of people, most of them were adventurers from the Divine Fall Plateau, and death was a common thing for them. But even the most horrific death is not as dignified as it is now. They all felt an inexplicable force that permeated their hearts from the death of this holy warrior, suppressing all thoughts that would destroy this solemn atmosphere.

At this time, they couldn't tell what the essence of this power was, but they subconsciously felt that this beta city that had not yet opened, these red-clothed, and the red-clothed leader, Duke Prell, had brought order to the Divine Fall Plateau, a new order. The Divine Fall Plateau, from this day on, is completely different from before.

The death penalty was followed by the amputation of the hand of another murderer. Richie made another concession, but only a broken hand, not a broken arm. This is also a response to Cheyenne's willingness to reason with him and accept the result of the execution of the holy knight.

The paladin, who was younger than Jenny, had his right hand cut off with a single sword, and the knifeman picked up his right hand, which had been severed from his wrist, and handed it to him. As long as it is connected in time with divine magic, this hand can still be preserved, but it is far less flexible than before.

"No, the guru is right, I have deviated from my faith! This is the price I should pay! I will remember it for the rest of my life!"

The young man's expression was resolute and genuinely remorseful, and he won great favor from the people.

Then came the whipping, in which thirteen holy warriors knelt on a high platform, and the cardinal priest swung down the leather whip, and each of them was whipped between ten and thirty lashes, depending on the severity of the crime.

The crackling of whipping echoed through the square, and the paladins all bit their lipes tightly to keep themselves from shouting. Being whipped in front of thousands of people is already extremely humiliating, and if you cry out for pain, the shame seems to be stronger than urinating in public.

This scene made the audience feel emotional, when the holy warrior was executed just now, the ceremony was so solemn that people almost forgot that it was once a holy warrior. And now, everyone finally realizes that the Paladin is no longer a special existence.

As a result, someone still spoke up, it was a black-haired girl, who had been named by the Duke of Prell to ask questions, and was also called "bamboo pole legs". She whined a few times, not knowing whether it was too much pain or too much shame, and began to cry loudly.

At the end of the execution, Cheyenne was about to leave with the paladin, and Li Qi kindly said that Jenny's body had been put in a coffin and could be taken away immediately.

"No need......

Cheyenne said in a deep voice: "Please bury him here, he no longer belongs to Cheyendia." Also, please engrave the words on the tombstone: A holy warrior who deviates from the faith and kills innocents is not a true holy warrior. ”

"No problem......

Li Qi looked at Cheyenne and sighed, "You seem to have ignited your fighting spirit?"

Cheyenne paused for a moment and smiled tacitly: "That's right, I'm full of confidence in Cheyendia's future because I've found a new path." I'm sure it won't be long before Cheyendia becomes very prosperous, and I hope you'll come and visit me when the time comes. ”

"Can I interpret your words as a declaration of war by Cheandia against Beta?"

Li Qi smiled and said, "I mean, the war for the hearts and minds of the people of the Divine Fall Plateau?"

Cheyenne nodded: "Yes, that's true, don't be afraid." ”

Li Qi coughed embarrassedly: "This is troublesome, I thought that the arrival of these holy warriors before had already caused us to start this war, so ......"

He sighed, "I've already made a move, don't blame me for not declaring war." ”

Cheyenne's face gradually became solemn, and he didn't say anything, turned around and left, beckoned Nama and the others, and helped the holy warrior who had not yet recovered to get into the two-headed turtle car.

"Another ......"

Li Qi didn't let him go: "What about the forbidden rope you damaged? That's ...... Eight thousand four hundred gold bushels!"

Originally, I wanted to charge five copper bullet fees, but you escaped by using the trick of being a holy warrior to open criminals......

Cheyenne stumbled at his feet, and his tone was obviously ashamed and angry: "I will compensate you!
