Just right.

Antonio happened to be worried that he didn't find an opportunity to meddle in the affairs of the territory, isn't the matter of the Fidelitas Knight just a matter of charcoal in the snow?

Relying on the fact that he was the son of the baron, he offered to deal with the thieves in place of the unwell baron, wanting to get past the baron and kill him first.

The Knights of Fidlitas felt a little unruly.

But he also felt that Antonio was also the natural first heir to the territory in law anyway, and maybe he would have to run errands under him in the future.

So at his request, the captain of the knights sent a few of his men to help him gather thousands of townspeople, and help maintain order and publicly punish the criminals in the town center square.

For this moment.

Antonio took out his full set of equipment, the suit of paladin armor worn on his body, lined with the pale blonde curls inherited from the baron, looking extremely handsome and masculine.

......

"Silence, I, Antonio, in the name of my father, Baron Valen, I will judge this sinner in his place!"

He didn't pay attention to the mosquito-like whispers of the people below, and the various speculations about his identity and experience of the village girls and fools.

Antonio held the cowhide torture whip about 1 meter long in his right hand, and in his left hand held aloft the pure holy book of the golden seal that emitted a bright golden halo, and shouted loudly, "...... It's these scumbags who steal the life savings of the weak and old. It is these scum who have taken away the fruits of your hard work in raising your children, wives and children. These sinful people derive evil pleasure from people's suffering. Although he relied on the deception of lies to cover up this heinous sin, with the power given to me by God, I could see through his heart's extreme yearning for evil at a glance. “

As he spoke, he whipped the young "sinner" so hard that he cracked his skin and wailed in pain!

"Woo!"

But because of the sour jujube wood in his mouth, he couldn't howl out loud.

When has the country folk below seen such an incendiary, heart-wrenching and indignant speech?

I only felt that everything I had lost in my daily life, and all the toil and pain I had gained, was also related to this strange "thief" on the high platform, who was bound and kneeling on the cross and trembling, and some people who had nothing to do with it began to gradually burst into tears of excitement and hatred for this thief.

This made Antonio even more excited, and his voice grew higher and higher, until finally it became a hoarse howl, like an excited beast.

Until the blind people below also began to shout in response: "Kill him, kill this sinner!!"

"The only most holy, eternal and pure Lord, whose justice hangs over the boundless earth, lost lambs! Only the blood of this sinner can cleanse his sinful soul. If you obey Avarius, let His glory be scattered on the earth, and He will curse these sinners to death! “

"You must praise Avarius, and kill all sinners, and praise him with the blood of sinners!"

Antonio swung his long whip and struck the thief faster and faster, as if he were the most filthy and sinful person in the world, or the antagonist of the whole class of people!

Because the thief on trial was half-hung from a wooden frame with his hands cut back, the whip conveniently "took care" of his whole body.

Long wounds, pieced together like stripes on a zebra's body, spread all over the body and limbs!

"But that's not enough! The physical pain can be blinded by the devil, but the defilement of the soul needs to be cleansed by the Lord! I have decided to burn this child at the stake tomorrow to purify his soul!!"

Looking at the young thief who had passed out, Antonio immediately opened the situation in one fell swoop, shocked the people and spread the impression of the incomparable majesty of the Lord, and then immediately announced.

The group of people below was even more sensational.

People in this rural area haven't seen the death penalty for a long time!

......

Then.

Harrison at the bottom lacked a glimmer of light, could it be the influence of the golden canon in his hand?—— those people around the high platform were clearly caught in a kind of confusion control spell!

In fact.

Harrison had long since slipped into the crowd with a coarse cloth cloak on, but he hadn't been able to distinguish the canonical extended-range secondary hypnosis spell at first.

Therefore, I blessed myself with [Enhance Resistance], and I carefully slowly probed the edge of the range where the spell took effect, and the effect of this spell shrouded a radius of about 50 meters from the high platform, covering a range of thousands of people, and it was definitely a valuable religious ritual spell prop.

"If you want to preach to increase your influence, how can I let you do it, Antonio!"

So, Harrison clasped his hands, used his cloak to cover the aura of the spell he cast, and used the second-order [suggestion] to instruct an elderly woman in her forties and fifties with an unbearable face, and blurted out her 'heartfelt words' in a hoarse voice: "My lord, this is still a child! He's still a child~~~ can't kill him! Don't kill him!!"

"Shut up! Do you foolish woman want to be burned at the stake with this bandit! He is already a habitual offender, and when he grows up, he will be even more sinful! His soul must be purified in time, lest he fall into the abyss!"

When Antonio heard that someone dared to obstruct his murderous authority, he immediately blurted out in anger.

Under the raised platform.

Some of the townspeople who were watching from a distance were originally a little moved by compassion, but when they saw this holy warrior so furious, they immediately kept silent, wanting to stop their fights so as not to get into trouble.

Harrison looked.

Hurriedly cast a few more Level 0 [Illusion Techniques] in a row, and everyone only heard that there seemed to be more than a dozen people everywhere below, constantly supporting the elderly woman.

"He's an eighteen or nineteen-year-old child! He's still a child~!"

"Does that god like harsh punishments?!

"Why should we listen to a stranger? “

After all, the effectiveness of the [Secondary Hypnosis Spell] is limited, and it requires people to slowly accept the transformation of their minds without resistance.

When doubt takes root in people's hearts, it grows quickly and tenaciously in their hearts.

At this moment, even the other people who had been watching the execution silently from a distance began to buzz and whisper.

Antonio was only a paladin after all, not a professional spellcaster who could distinguish spells, nor a professional preacher who was best at demagoguery.

So in the end, even if he kept shouting loudly, he didn't suppress the protests below, and he didn't see that a large part of it was the effect of Harrison's spells.

Ultimately.

As a result, in the midst of the continuous protests of the "crowd", Antonio shook his hand and left with a grim face.
