Chapter 9: Nightmares of the Past 3

The old man said slowly: "Now, please ask the prosecutor to make a statement." Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info"

The soldier playing the lawyer took a step forward, and it seems that this soldier is not a simple mercenary. A knight, perhaps, but most knights in a town like Gerdo can't afford armor and can't be identified by what they wear.

Barron Miller and his demon-worshipping mage wife were in cahoots and sacrificed his son. We can tell from the objects in Mr. Barron's mansion that he and his wife were out-and-out demon worshippers. And the cause of his son's death is completely implausible. The Black Death has long since been extinct in the Empire, so why is your son sick? It's all a cover for your own evil rituals. ”

Barron's eyes darkened and he said, "Yes, the Black Death is long gone. Unless...... Someone poisoned ......"

Barron no longer had the luxury of surviving tonight, and he didn't expect the Gonzalez family to be so arrogant. It is easy for the other party to kill him, but the way to try through the Holy See is simple and fast, not only will his whole family be dead, but he will also be able to discredit his name from now on. Even if others knew the truth of the matter, they would only sigh at most, the Gonzalez family had a lot of means. It reminded him of an old saying: only the sword in your hand is real power.

The old man could only say, "Is there any evidence for your accusations?"

Darren stood up and said, "I have witnesses. ”

All eyes were focused on a young servant, who slowly walked onto the field. I was so nervous that I didn't notice that I was on a crutch, and I almost tripped when someone laughed.

Barron recognized him as his own servant, though he never knew his name. After suffering from this variable, it is consumable that he has also been imprisoned until now, and he was forced to come here to confess the crime that did not exist.

"He will identify his evil spells in your secret basement. Darren looked at the servant and asked, "Is that right?"

The servant was too young, perhaps less than 18 years old. I've been doing some coal delivery and garbage removal at Miller's house, and I've never seen this kind of scene. Now he only wants to go home, but he has long regarded Miller's house as his home since he was a servant in Barron Miller's house. However, that home was long gone, and he couldn't help but cry when he thought about it.

Barron looked at the child in front of him and said, "What's your name?"

The servant said, "Hogan...... Hogan Parker. ”

"Listen, Hogan...... Do what you have to do and wait for it to pass...... Everything will be fine. Barron said weakly.

Darren Gonzalez said impatiently, "Enough! Enough! Tell him about his crimes, and let him be burned to death." ”

"I see...... I see ......" Hogan whimpered, "Lord Barron, bring little Jim into the basement...... I haven't seen little Jim since. ”

The voices of the crowd began to be noisy, and Hogan heard someone shouting again: This liar should be burned to death!

There was some other invective, all of them from people who supported Barron.

Hogan closed his eyes, not daring to look back at the crowd.

"Servant, you also saw that they had a lot of ritual items in their basement, and because of these, you came to us to report Mr. Mayor!" Darren continued.

"That's right!" Hogan almost cried out, "I saw bloody skulls, bottles with eyeballs, vats of blood, and magic circles of six-pointed stars!"

Hogan cried and said. Later, my throat was hoarse, and I could only hear hoarse sobs.

Barron listened calmly to his testimony and prepared himself for his own inevitability.

The white-haired old man looked uncomfortable, so he said hastily: "I think our testimony is enough." Do you have any other evidence to provide, Lord Gonzalez?"

"I still have physical evidence, a lot of physical evidence. ”

Darren's men brought a large bag and dumped it all on the ground of the square. Among them are all props that are only used by mages, including wands, runes, and a workbench with a six-pointed star on it. With the appearance of these, the crowd has been sighing.

"Mrs. Miller, can you deny that these things belong to you?" asked Darren.

Lady Carol Miller is indeed a mage who studies summoning, and because this magic is often associated with demonic summoning, she has always hidden her identity, and only a few people know her mage's identity.

"I admit, I own these things. Mrs. Miller struggled to reply with the anti-magic handcuffs on her wrists, "But it has nothing to do with demonic summoning. ”

"If it doesn't matter, why would you hide your identity?" Darren asked, "God knows what happened in Riverdale? Is there a lying who wields her evil magic in the dead of night?"

Barron's daughter, who had been silent, began to weep, and the days of fear and torment had dried her tears. probably knew that his fate was going to end this night, and all he could do was cry.

"Burn this!" someone in the crowd shouted.

Barron shouted, "The child is innocent, let the child go!"

There was a round of inversion in the crowd, which hit Barron's heart one by one.

"You know the law. Demon worship, the whole family will die!" Darren said, and coaxed the crowd: "Do you want to see this little witch grow up and come back for revenge?"

The crowd echoed Darren Gonzalez's words.

"For our more stable future!" Darren enjoyed the madness of the people, "For the sake of our beautiful town, no demon will come to destroy." For the future of Gerdo!"

"For Gerdo!" shouted everyone.

Now people seem to be really possessed by something evil, because of excitement or fear, they are crazy to support people they don't know. So it is here and so it is the rest of the empire. The words of the people are now the blade of slaughter, only the person who wields it is different.

However, anyone would be afraid of Riverdale City on the Crimson Night of the Empire 107. In one night, 170,000 people were devoured by demons. The people took to the streets with anxiety and fear, demanding that the hidden dangers of demon worship be removed. Every night after that, it was as red as Riverdale that night.

Mrs. Miller ended up at the stake and shouted at the blind crowd:

"If you want a peaceful and stable future, I will give it to you...... I, Carol Miller, curse you, both the Holy Spirit and the Devil, testify for me. I curse this town to drown in an aura of peace, and for its inhabitants to go to hell when they die, and for their souls never to see the kingdom of God!

After saying this, the flames burning on the three of them instantly increased several times. The heat wave almost set fire to the surrounding buildings, and most of the people in the square lost their eyebrows or hair.

At the same time, Abel finds himself back in that calm and eerie town.
