Chapter 214: Trial
Of course, the words of the person in charge of the communication must be more tactful, which roughly translates to this meaning.
Shen Yan looked a little embarrassed...... As the saying goes, "you don't kill people too much", which does seem to be a bit excessive. He is a person who eats soft rather than hard, and the other party's low posture really hit his weakness. knows that the other party is not a good person, but it is not good to continue to tear his face at this time.
Erebeth is much gentler at home than at the post, and after living with his younger brother, he can even cook, so he naturally helps to play a round and says, "It's okay, Xie Ding will seem, huh...... People mature. β
It's simply an unprincipled cover-up.
The messenger really wanted to cry now, and said in his heart that the news I inquired about was really right, this is a pet brother madman...... But are you too indifferent to foreign affairs, Your Excellency?
"We Ambassadors...... It's a woman. β
*****
The ambassador Luskan sent to Neverwinter this time, Toleo, was also a disciple of the Fifth Tower's master, Kurigarius, a woman who liked to wear a costume full of feathers.
This made Shen Yan seriously doubt her purpose for coming to Neverwinter, and even the identity of this ambassador was fake.
This woman was hit in the head by a rotten egg flying when she went out one of them.
Because the smell was so stinky, she went back and washed her hair like crazy, almost washing herself bald......
And Shen Yan took the opportunity to sneak into the embassy, and like Ethan Hunt, he hung Weiya and looked through the woman's diary, hmm...... So she rolled over the sheets with fifty men? This is the plot of Fifty Shades of Grey!
The story really comes from life.
Shen Yan sighed and left after reading it, leaving no footprints in the room.
Therefore, when the female university uses time back - to see a person who looks like "Spider-Man", acts like "Spider-Man", and has "Spider-Man" written on his clothes, hanging on the roof and peeking at the love she writes, the whole person is going crazy.
The old lady's little girlish heart!
Blame that Arthur for everything, the old lady wants to crush him to pieces!
Once the country has no bottom line, it can do anything.
This time, Toleo came completely prepared - she first instructed Arthur, the protagonist who made people to disguise himself as the second generation, to massacre Amber, a small village on the border between the two countries, and deliberately omitted one or two survivors who had seen Arthur's face.
She then takes the survivors to Neverwinter, where she testifies to Lord Nasher in the presence of Tyr that Arthur is the one responsible for the massacre!
I have to say that this wave of operations makes people think out.
Does Nasher care if a border village lives or dies? Not necessarily, because that kind of village neither pays him taxes nor owes allegiance to him. In fact, it was the village of Luskan. But he had to act like he cared, and even had to accept Luskan's flawed "evidence" β because it wasn't the evidence or sympathy that really worked, but the threat of war that Luskan had issued.
Neverwinter has been at peace for twenty years, and everyone from the lord to the civilians doesn't want to fight, so most of the time they have to accept the war blackmail of Luskan...... It seems that this time it will be the same.
If the normal process continues, Arthur will have to face a grossly unfair trial in front of the statue of Tyr.
Don't think that this won't happen, it's entirely possible...... After all, Tyre's teachings upheld the law rather than justice, and he upheld precisely the laws in force, which were extremely inclined to the aristocracy. In this legal system, the nobility could wantonly slander, distort, and fabricate evidence to murder commoners without paying any price. Civilians can only try to justify themselves under this unjust law, and the chances of success are slim to none.
So even if Arthur had won the trial by intriguing the audience with great skill and eloquence to 20 o'clock beforehand, and reading the file 50 times, he would have had to accept another unjust outcomeβhe had to be handed over to Luskan despite his acquittal.
There's no way Neverwinter could go to war with Luskan for him.
Eventually, Arthur's friend found a hidden letter of the law and appealed to ask Arthur to vindicate his innocence through a duel before the gods......
*****
Arthur is an archer who allows him to duel people in a confined space with almost zero chance of winning!
Shen Yan also did not plan to replace Arthur in the name of his friend.
No, it should be said that he can't get to this point at all - because of the real Arthur, he has neither 20 points of eloquence nor can he read the file 50 times, so he can't even win the court trial!
So, when Arthur stood in the courtroom with a heavy head, he was attacked by the words of the female ambassador Toleo, and he was about to be defeated.
All that left in his mind was the words that Shen Yan suddenly appeared and confessed to him last night: "Summons witnesses, my friend." The only chance you have to win is to call witnesses! β
"I, I'm going to call witnesses." Arthur said weakly.
"Hahaha~~~ I don't know what other witnesses I don't know!" Ambassador Toleo let out a shrill laugh that echoed through the hall.
Everyone in the courtroom was furious, half of the people present knew that Arthur was innocent, and the other half could guess that it was Luskan's conspiracy, but it was all useless...... Under Tyr's gaze, everything must be done in the name of the law!
At this moment, the door of the judgment hall was pushed open, and a strong backlight shone in through the door.
A tall figure appeared inside the door, and the audience in the courtroom suddenly fell silent, and then a landslide and tsunami sound erupted!
Countless scolding, scolding, and screaming are mixed together, and they converge into a huge wave that overturns everything!
Because no one could have imagined that the person who appeared at the door of the judgment hall at this moment turned out to be an orc! An old, but still strong, orc! His naked upper body was scarred, and the horns on his head were broken in half, and he still looked fierce!
The old orc's glance made many noble women scream and faint......
Orcs are the common enemies of the Northlands, and they can be found guilty without trial! But this is the witness that Arthur is going to call?
"Why did the orcs appear in this sacred court? Is this also the law of Neverwinter? The ambassador screamed, as angry as everyone else.
"Because he's a witness!" Erebeth stepped out from behind the orcs, and his words were like a bucket of ice water, dousing the raging anger in the hall. "Now, orcs, I'll give you a chance to tell the truth...... Before I cut off your head. β
The hall was silent, and everyone knew the hatred that Inquisitor Erebeth hated for the orcs. They had no doubt that Erebeth would draw his sword and cut off the orc's head, and the orc was doomed...... Well, now they're interested in hearing what the orcs have to say.
"I didn't want to leave alive," the old orc said calmly, "I'm standing here today just to tell you the truth about these stupid weak chickens!" β
"What the truth ......" whispered from below.
"I'm against it!" The female ambassador subconsciously guessed that this truth was definitely not in her favor, and the situation beyond her grasp made her a little angry, "Get him out!" This has nothing to do with the Amber tragedy! β
"The opposition is invalid, and I want to hear what he has to say." The judge said, hammering. "Orc, do you have anything to do with the tragedy that happened in Amber? Answer my question now! β
"Of course, no one knows better than me what is happening," the old orc looked around with contemptuous eyes, "because I did the slaughter of Amber!" I cut off the heads of those people one by one! β
"Boom-"
The courtroom has completely blown up!
The judge desperately hammered, the female ambassador kept screaming, and the guards suppressed it...... It was not easy to calm down the boiling crowd. But there are still many people who are roaring angrily, "Kill him, kill that orc, and break him into thousands of pieces!" β
"Silence! Quiet! β
"Orc, can you be responsible for what you say? Maybe I'm too demanding for a beast, but how can you prove you're telling the truth......" the judge asked aloud.
Arthur was just accused of slaughtering Amber's people earlier, and an orc jumped out to confess his guilt on the back foot, what a coincidence! What's more, he doesn't believe that Lu Kansi can't even do a good job of planting!
What he hoped more now was that Luskan had hired this orc to commit the crime of massacre, so that he could help the good young man over there get away with it. But it is also not easy to prove this, because it is impossible for Luskan to leave obvious evidence of guilt.
"How to prove it? Tyre is there watching with his blind eyes, and you can ask him. β
"Blasphemy! This is gross blasphemy! "The judges were mad, but ...... That's not a good idea. "I ask for a magic spell to prove if he's lying!"
*****
"Lord, Tyr, gaze your gaze here and give a just verdict on what is before you...... Excuse me, is it the orcs standing here who caused the murder of Amber? β
Tyre was silent......
Because the countless lines of fate converge here, regarding the law and the fair judgment, Tyre cast his eyes here early, and it can be said that he watched the whole trial process.
Did the orcs cause Amber's bloodbath?
"Yes." That's Tyr's answer.
The trial is over!
β¦β¦
Surrounded by frustration, Toleo, the female ambassador, walked out of the courtroom amid the laughter of the crowd. The orcs were taken down, Arthur was acquitted in court, and she was devastated......
Looking at that back, Torio couldn't understand why Tyr was helping with the perjury - everyone guessed that Luskan had hired orcs to slaughter Amber, but she knew it wasn't! It was a summoned demon slaughter, and it had nothing to do with orcs.
So even if Tyr pointed out on the spot that she was behind it, Toleo wouldn't have felt so shocked, but the God of Law would actually help with perjury? Oh my God, her worldview is going to be shattered!
Tyre didn't explain.
Because that question should be the answerβthe old orcs did cause Amber's bloodbath......
But thirty years ago!
No one ever said that Amber was slaughtered only once......
