268 Public Trial Holy Warrior, how nice it would be if you were a holy warrior
"Judgment! Judgment!"
The tidal wave of 10,000 shouts suppressed the boiling anger in the hearts of the holy warriors, giving them a new understanding of their own image in the minds of the people, and a clearer sense of what kind of power Cheyenne was facing.
Gronia felt that except for the vow she made by holding the scale of Tyr, it was difficult for the justice she believed in her heart to remain firm in the face of such a wave.
At this time, let her shout to 10,000 people, "I am a holy warrior, you have no right to judge", "Anything I have done is worthy of my heart, I am practicing justice", she couldn't do it at all.
"Power...... It turns out that this is the power ......."
She understood why Cheyenne would give in, even if it was a legend, in the face of the cry of ten thousand people, the crusade of ten thousand people, would retreat.
As for what kind of righteous division, Duke Prell, this devil is not for Cheyenne and the Holy Warriors at all, but for these people. It was the Paladins who were luring them to persecute the Holy Warriors, threatening Cheyenne with their cries.
If Cheyenne still wants to continue to build Cheyendia on the Fallen Plateau, and if Cheyendia wants to make Cheyendia a peaceful home for the holy warriors, he can't ignore such a call. Let everyone on the Godfall Plateau denounce the holy warriors, and let the holy warriors become the public enemies of the people and adventurers, such a consequence that Cheyenne can't afford.
Gronia's gaze at Richie was extremely complicated: "The devil ......"
At the beginning of the trial, according to the "law of simplicity", Li Qi's side was the plaintiff, the paladin was the defendant, and the tens of thousands of people in the audience were judges. This is a law established back in the age of elves, when humans were still primitive tribes, and the paladins could not oppose it.
The accusations and evidence in the first half are unusually concise and efficient, after all, the incident is complete and clear, and it is irrefutable.
Fourteen paladins, including Jenny, Gronia, and Mayne, invaded Beta, killing four and wounding twelve.
The camera recorded the entire process, as well as the full statements of the victims and witnesses, and the evidence was not enough to put the case in the coffin, enough to press several layers of horseshoe.
To people's surprise, it was actually three girls of different sizes who stopped the paladin from continuing to commit murder. When they came to the stage one by one and stated the incident as witnesses, the atmosphere at the scene was much more lively. The scene of the trial, which should have been solemn and solemn, rang out with laughter, applause and applause from time to time.
"I was dancing happily, these paladins suddenly mixed in and shouted and shouted to kill, and when I went to stop them, they actually did something to me!"
The silver-haired, blue-eyed, unusually sweet little girl pointed to her nose and said in an unbelievable tone, "I'm only thirteen years old!
The "judges" laughed, but the paladin turned blue, you are demonstrating, you must be demonstrating!
In the video you just played, you wield a thick and long light whip, and with one whip, you will pour down a paladin! And then you say that you are thirteen years old and underage, so the paladin is very cruel? Who is the cruelty!?
The little girl with pale blond hair and silver eyes came to the stage, only a hat brim higher than the silver-haired girl just now. She summoned a parrot, which landed on her shoulder, sending a surging sound over the megaphone, making everyone dizzy.
"They rushed in and shouted to free the slaves, the redhead knocked down our counselor first, we wanted to catch them, ask about the situation, and they shouted to destroy the evil and start killing. The redhead still wanted to fly me, and I was careful not to blow up her clothes and flesh, but she still didn't need to smash into the wall and fainted, and then I didn't dare to do it, for fear of hurting more people...... Here's how it happened...... Richie told me to tell the truth, only tell the truth, tell the whole truth, don't say anything else, I should have done it, right? That redhead is really a weak chicken...... quack quack ......"
The little girl grabbed the parrot by the beak, sent it away with a spell, and went off the stage with a red face.
Laughter and applause rang out at the same time, and Gronia felt extremely ashamed on the stage, and her head was lowered. But in this way, the flaming red hair was even more eye-catching, and the voice of "It's her" pierced Gronya's heart like a knife.
After that, a tall and hot girl came to the stage, with black hair mixed with white hair, and the dress of hot pants and a small vest, which made her look extremely eye-catching.
She yawned lazily and said, "Didn't you take a picture of what happened?" ”
After saying that, she walked off the stage, leaving the audience and the paladins confused.
Who are you, and what does it have to do with this?
Seeing that she was about to step down, she realized something: "Oh, I forgot to say, I am the wolf in the mirage." ”
It took a while for her to come to their senses.
That tall and ferocious, taking up most of the picture of the mirage, knocked down a holy warrior with one paw, and swept down seven or eight holy warriors with one tail, and the black-backed white wolf with one tail!?
Cheyenne's pupils shrank, and Nama and the others stared at the white-haired wolf girl with resentment. It was because of this guy that Jenny didn't run out of any of them, and it was the ranger who was their guide who ran back to Shaandia to report the news.
Mayne glanced at Jenny, who was still injured next to him and was wrapped like a dumpling, and muttered, "It's terrible......"
After the statement of the incident, as the defense of the defense, Cheyenne first checked the camera.
With the power of legend, feeling the extraordinary power fluctuations in the recording chip is enough to tell whether it has been edited and processed after the fact.
After several cameras examined it, Cheyenne nodded, acknowledging that the footage captured by the cameras was accurate.
He then questioned several of the injured who testified, including the first youth to be sent flying by Gronia, who was a counselor at the Beta City immigrant study class.
He then chatted with the trainees who testified and confirmed their identities. Among the cadets were indentured slaves from the first term, as well as veterans from Hadlang.
"There is no problem with the facts you presented, the paladins of Chaandia did cause the deaths and injuries of innocent people......"
Cheyenne began to defend: "But there is a reason for the whole thing, the paladins did not deliberately hurt people, their actions to free the slaves were just and legal. ”
Li Qi said with a happy face: "Free the slaves? Do you mean those indentured slaves? Could it be that your holy warriors in Xia Andia also regard the liberation of all slaves and the destruction of slavery as justice? That's great! This is also the divine will of my lord Lady Crimson!"
Cheyenne's cheeks twitched: "I mean, it's just to free illegal slaves. These slaves of yours were taken from the Holy Light Castle, whether it is a simple law or a written law, this kind of thing is illegal. ”
There was a loud shout from the audience, it was the students of the first phase, and they were immediately excited when they heard that the holy warriors denied their identity.
"Holy Warrior, you turned out to be the lackeys of the Holy Light Castle!"
"Do you want to send us back to the Holy Light Castle to continue digging up the fragments of the corpses, are you going to let us die?"
"It is the Duke who will really save us! in a few days we will finish our studies and we will no longer be indentured slaves!"
Li Qi shook his head and said: "Cheyenne, your understanding of natural law is not thorough enough, what is natural law? What is right and what is wrong, conscience has its own answer. ”
"These slaves were threatened with death in the Citadel of Light, and I rescued them and made a one-month slave contract with them, teaching them how to fend for themselves in Beta. ”
Richie's tone became awe-inspiring: "In ancient times, human beings did not have slaves, and the blood brought human beings together as tribes, united and helped each other, and struggled to survive. Paladin!Throw aside the laws and conventions that have evolved since then because of human greed, ask your conscience, and then look at me and tell me your ruling, whether what I am doing is good or not!?"
Cheyenne was silent for a moment and sighed, "In my life, I have never been taught like today......
"But it's still a misunderstanding," he said. ”
"Misunderstandings can be resolved, injuries can be recovered, but lost lives are irretrievable. ”
Li Qi sneered: "If you can resurrect the four dead, I believe everyone will take it as a misunderstanding, can you?"
Cheyenne opened her mouth, as if she wanted to say yes, but shook her head heavily.
In the directory of the Chamber of Commerce, resurrecting a person gets a legendary soul plus a million gold bushels. By extension, even if Cheyenne will resurrect the technique, the price will inevitably be extremely high.
"Of course, based on the murderer's statement and everyone's understanding of the holy knight, this is indeed a misunderstanding, and the punishment can be appropriately mitigated. ”
Li Qi also decided to take a step back, after all, what he had to insist on in the last link, he had to force Cheyenne to give in.
The corners of Cheyenne's eyes jumped, and she suddenly "transmitted" to Li Qi: "According to the most simple law, as long as the loss is sufficiently compensated, the punishment can be mitigated to the greatest extent. ”
"I approve of this", Li Qi was not very sorry for himself, and at the same time was slightly surprised, Cheyenne really knows how to be flexible, does she want to give herself benefits?
"The little red-haired girl, named Gronia, has royal blood of Aranis, and she has made a vow to overthrow Queen Aurora and restore Alanis. ”
At this time, Cheyenne's faint smile seemed very treacherous: "She was looking for help everywhere, and she found Cheyendia." If you give her to Queen Dawning, I believe it will definitely benefit your cause. ”
Li Qi looked at the red-haired girl with her head hanging out of the corner of her eye, and said in her heart that it was really so, no wonder it was so familiar. When Aurora filmed "Theresia and Freya", because red hair was a symbol of Alanis's royal bloodline, Aurora's makeup had a unique style, which impressed him very much.
In an instant, he was full of pity for the red-haired girl, girl, do you know that Uncle Cheyenne, whom you admire, is about to sell you?
Li Qi said in a resolute tone: "Don't tempt me, holy warrior, I am seeking justice for the dead and wounded, not for my own personal gain. ”
Cheyenne smiled and didn't care, it seemed that she was really testing Li Qi just now, or she just wanted to dig a hole for Li Qi.
He said with emotion: "I'm in the Duke...... No, on His Majesty, he also saw the heart of justice that belonged to the Holy Warrior. If you're a paladin, that's great. ”
"If the paladin can find a way and return to reason, I will take your words as a compliment", Li Qi couldn't help but sarcastically repeated.
"So ......"
"So ......"
The two said in unison: "Let's talk about punishment." ”
The bargaining session opens, and Richie's price is that the two paladins who killed people, one named Jenny and the other named Ralph, will be executed. The other six wounded persons shall be punished with different punishments ranging from 10 to 30 lashes, depending on the number of injuries and the severity of the injuries. There were also six paladins who just didn't have time to make a move, each with five lashes of warning.
Cheyenne's price was a murderous paladin, a severed arm, and thirty lashes. The other paladins were all given ten lashes, and Cheandia gave adequate compensation to the wounded.
Since it was a bargain, Li Qi would not bite his own price.
"The one named Ralph, who only killed one person, still shot in a panic. The deceased died of his injuries, not on the spot, and can be pardoned and punished according to your conditions, but the one named Jenny ......"
Li Qi looked at the young holy warrior, and his tone was very resolute: "He killed three people, he shot ruthlessly, the dead were all killed with one blow, he must die!"
Cheyenne also looked at Jenny, the scene of Jeni's murder in the mirage just now was very clear, and the legendary paladin said with difficulty: "Even according to the canons of the holy warrior, he must die, so it's up to us to ......"
"No!"
Li Qi's tone was further aggravated: "He must be executed in the manner of Beta, not by your holy warriors." ”
Looking directly at Cheyenne, even if the anger in the other party's eyes boiled, Li Qi did not flinch: "When you holy warriors find the right path and protect the path of the highest goodness recognized by the people, then execute in the name of justice in front of the people!"
"You also said that the current Godfall Plateau is a land of lawlessness. Since it is a land of lawlessness, there is no true holy warrior! I will not let you execute him with your own hands to declare that you still hold on to justice!"
The two looked at each other for a long time, and Li Qi's tone softened slightly: "He will die quickly, and it won't be too painful." ”
Cheyenne let out a long sigh and avoided Richie's gaze, apparently acquiescing.
