Chapter 185: Ming Canonical Punishment
Walking at the forefront of the team are twenty cultivators wearing crystal armor, whose strength is at least above the foundation building period, and then through the increase of crystal armor, it is like twenty torches that burn through the sky, swallowing powerful waves of spiritual power all the time.
Li Yao, the spiritual roots of these low-level cultivators, all sensed the extremely strong pressure, and their pores were instantly locked, and they didn't dare to release even a wisp of spiritual silk.
Such a strong killing intent was not deliberately done by others, but after a series of bloody battles with demon beasts in the dark underground, the divine soul was naturally shrouded in a layer of evil aura.
If you have experienced a hundred battles and killed more than 10,000 people, the evil qi can even be condensed and formed, and it can be used for battlefield killing, which is a hundred times sharper than the aura.
Although the crystal armor on the bodies of these cultivators was incomplete and stained with blood, most of the joints and delicate runes were corroded.
In Li Yao's eyes, he was still envious and jealous, and he couldn't wait to run over and pick up a set and put it on for himself.
Twenty Crystal Armored Monks swaggered and walked majestically, behind them were dozens of carts, demonic aura, and viscous liquid dripping from the gaps, which were filled with demon beast corpses.
This is only the first batch, and there are still a large number of demon beast corpses underground, and they must be disposed of as much as possible, otherwise the plague will be launched, which is not a joke.
After the convoy transporting the corpses of the demon beasts passed, the spar chariot dragged large iron cages, each of which was densely engraved with hundreds of rune arrays, and the base was also inlaid with countless spars, and the arc crackled and swam between the iron railings.
In the iron cage, there was a restless and powerful demon beast, and when they found themselves being watched by humans, they jumped even more violently, jumping up and down, struggling desperately.
But every time they touched the iron cage, they would attract a bolt of lightning, which made them grin their teeth, their scales stand on end, and the air was filled with a faint smell of burning.
"These are all demon generals, and a total of nineteen demon generals have been captured this time, it's really not easy!"
Zhao Tianchong said with a smile.
Li Yao looked intently and found that the demon generals who were locked in the iron cage were different from the low-level demon beasts at the level of demon soldiers, and most of them had some characteristics similar to human beings.
Their eyes, in particular, were palpable with horror, anger, hatred, and fierce murderous intent.
Some of these particularly fierce demon generals, even if they were struck by lightning again and again, cutting deep wounds that could be seen to the bone, they didn't care, and they still stared at the cultivators and soldiers around them.
As if he wanted to tear all mankind to pieces with a murderous gaze.
"Even such a fierce demon general can be captured, the fierceness of this underground battle is really unimaginable!"
Li Yao was amazed, and couldn't help but feel a little ashamed.
After reading the post on the forum just now, he was still proud, thinking that he could kill a seriously injured low-level demon general, which was already quite powerful.
It was only at this moment that he realized how big a gap there was between himself and the real master.
If he is allowed to go deep into the underground battlefield, he is afraid that he will not be able to survive even an hour, and he will be ground into pulp.
"It's still not strong enough!"
"Now I'm just a little famous in the Great Wilderness War Academy, and people are only optimistic about my potential."
"In the vast cultivation realm, I am still an insignificant little character, and I am not even qualified to participate in the underground war."
"To become stronger, I must do my best to become stronger, at least enter the foundation building period at a younger age than Ding Ling and Senior Brother Peng, before I am eligible to participate in the real Xiuzhen Realm War!"
Li Yao thought silently, and Lu Tieshan suddenly pushed him:
"The Demon King is here!"
Li Yao's spirits perked up, he stood on tiptoe, stretched his neck, and looked into the distance.
Before the Demon King could be seen, his sight was first taken away by an ugly man with a garlic nose and a bit like a poodle.
The man was not wearing crystal armor, but a loose linen robe, and his hands were tucked into wide sleeves.
The whole person is not visible, but it faintly exudes an aura that is more powerful than that of the crystal armor monks.
Especially in his caged sleeves, there seemed to be an incomparably terrifying blade hidden, even if Li Yao was still hundreds of meters away from him, he could feel the dangerous aura emanating from that blade.
"A sword?"
Judging from the faint outline on the outside of the sleeve, this person is using a magic weapon like a war knife.
Li Yao was studying the war knife recently, and his eyes couldn't help but focus on this person's sleeve, attracted by this hidden peerless battle knife.
His gaze only condensed for three seconds, and Li Yao suddenly felt his scalp explode, as if an invisible war knife shot out from this person's sleeve, slashing at him, unstoppable, and hitting him in the throat!
"Ahh
Li Yao couldn't help but let out a low groan, his figure staggered, he took two steps back, and almost fell off the hedron chariot.
Covering his throat with his hands, cold sweat oozed from his forehead, and the faint pain on his Adam's apple was so real, Li Yao had goosebumps, as if he had died once!
Zhao Tianchong and Lu Tieshan looked at him very strangely, and they didn't understand why Li Yao's soles suddenly became weak.
Hundreds of meters away, the garlic-nosed man sensed Li Yao's strange appearance, and glanced at him lightly, a hint of surprise flashed in his eyes.
"This person is Long Wenhui, the deputy leader of the Hundred Battles Sword Alliance, a famous demon beast hunter in the Great Wilderness, a strong man in the Dan Period, one of the peak combat forces of the Battle of Qingze City, and the Demon King was captured by him!"
Zhao Tianchong introduced.
"It turned out to be a strong man with a knot, no wonder his strength is so strong, but when he spied on him, it was like being slashed, and he couldn't resist it at all!"
Li Yao had palpitations, he knew that he was a strong man, how could he dare to peep into other people's blades?
Taking a deep breath and reinforcing his mind, Li Yao narrowed his eyes and looked behind Long Wenhui.
Behind Long Wenhui, two spar chariots were side by side, dragging a huge transparent cage, all the railings were made of crystal materials, not only were the dense runes engraved on the outside, but even the inside of the crystal were suspended countless miniature rune arrays, exuding unpredictable brilliance.
Inside the cage, Zhuo stood a humanoid monster more than two meters tall, covered with pale cyan scales, and a narrow tail growing behind him, with clearly distinguishable facial features, like a distorted human face, two horns rose into the sky, but the left one was broken by Qi root, flowing out of a pale golden liquid.
The palm and palm of the demon king's hands and feet were pierced by crystal spikes, fixed to the four sides of the cage with crystal chains, and two lilac sharp cones were deeply pierced into the shoulder blades, releasing lightning all the time.
Even Li Yao was a hundred meters away, and he could hear the "crackling" sound that erupted from the demon king's body.
There was no expression on the demon king's face, only the deepest part of his eyes, occasionally releasing an extremely ferocious starlight, slowly sweeping the audience, as if looking at a group of insignificant ants.
Suddenly, it glanced at Li Yao lightly.
Powerful! Terror! Brutal! Murderous!
These words suddenly came out of the depths of Li Yao's brain.
Despite being trapped by heavy shackles, this demon king still exuded an unbridled and domineering aura, which made Li Yao's spirit highly tense and gave birth to the idea of fighting to the death.
One can imagine how terrible this demon king would be once he went crazy if there were no heavy shackles.
"Didi!"
"Didi!"
"Didi!"
Li Yao's three miniature crystal brains sounded at the same time, and after glancing at them, the three of them invariably showed ecstatic expressions.
"The three of us have all been elected as representatives of the Great Wilderness War Academy!"
"This powerful and incomparable demon king will be slain by us!"
……
A temporary resettlement area on the outskirts of Qingze City, a sea of tents.
All the rescued citizens are housed here, waiting for the beast tide to end and return to the park.
This is also one of the reasons why the military is unable to use heavy firepower, and can only fight bloody battles street by street.
The vast wasteland is sparsely populated, the transportation is inconvenient, and all kinds of building materials are even more scarce to the extreme, and most of the infrastructure materials have to be transported from the interior, and it is very difficult to build a large city with a population of hundreds of thousands.
If the entire city were to be flattened with heavy firepower, not only would so many civilians not be properly housed, but reconstruction would be a protracted and huge project, and the cost would be astronomical.
During this time, humanity lost a permanent stronghold, and the consequences were immeasurable.
Therefore, the Federation Army is not willing to destroy a city that has been built with great difficulty for hundreds of years, and it is more convenient to rebuild it if it can retain some vitality and rebuild its homeland.
At this moment, the news of the victory was learned, and the entire temporary resettlement area was boiling.
From babbling children to crane-haired old men, everyone cheered and shouted the slogan "Long live the cultivators and the federal army".
Especially when the convoy escorting the demon clan captives slowly drove through the temporary resettlement area, the atmosphere was even more hot, and all the crowd applauded loudly, and their hands were swollen.
Many relatives died tragically in the outbreak of the beast tide, and the masses who had a deep hatred for the demon clan wanted to rush up despite a qiē, but were stopped by the soldiers:
"Don't worry, there will be a time for you to take revenge!"
Next to the temporary settlement, with the assistance of several cultivation sects, a simple war court that could accommodate 100,000 people was built in a matter of days.
For half a day, the seats were full, and the citizens whose relatives had died in the outbreak of the beast tide were arranged in the VIP seats, and the rest of the citizens were selected by drawing lots to determine the seats, and all the people who could not be arranged gathered outside the war court to watch the live broadcast through the huge light curtain in the sky.
Today, the Qingze City Special War Court will hold a public trial of one demon king and nineteen demon generals!
This is the practice of the Star Federation.
For demon soldiers and demon beasts that do not enter the stream, they are all treated as beasts, and if they are killed, they will be killed.
But when it comes to the level of demon generals, his wisdom is not inferior to that of humans, and he has also established a demon beast empire that has dominated the universe for tens of thousands of years, and he once regarded himself as the master of mankind.
This history of humiliation is unforgettable for mankind.
If you treat the high-level demon clan as a beast, it is tantamount to an insult to yourself.
Therefore, humanity defines the war between itself and the demon race as a battle for survival between two different civilizations.
When you reach the level of demon general or above, you are the commander of a hostile civilization, and once you are captured, you can enjoy the treatment of a war criminal, be tried by a war court, and be punished by a canonical sentence.
As for the outcome of the trial, there is always only one outcome.
Death penalty, carry out immediately!
Otherwise, the death penalty will be carried out jointly by both types of people.
First, they are low-level cultivators who personally participate in the war and have outstanding expressions on the battlefield.
The second is that there are civilians whose relatives died under the minions of demon beasts and have blood feuds with demon beasts.
For the ferocious demon generals, demon kings, and even demon emperors, death is not terrible.
It's like a high-level cultivator of the human race, when there is no way back, he will also die generously.
However, for a demon king with a respected status in the Blood Demon Realm, dying at the hands of a low-level cultivator or even a powerless civilian was undoubtedly a very humiliating thing.
And in the Star Glory Federation, even an insignificant ordinary worker has the opportunity to kill a demon king and avenge his family with his own hands, which is undoubtedly the best consolation and the greatest encouragement to the morale of all mankind!
Therefore, Li Yao gloriously became one of the 1,000 executioners.
It is equivalent to the human Yu Dan powerhouse, the incomparably strong demon king, who will die at the hands of him and nine hundred and ninety-nine compatriots! R1152
