Chapter 591: Result of the Trial—Capital Punishment

Time sped up more than eight hundred days in the hut, and less than nine days had passed in the outside world.

When Gu Ding walked out of the cultivation tower with a big grin, Brim, the Golden Armor Keeper, suddenly opened his eyes and looked at Gu Ding. "Come with us."

Gooding put his hands in his trouser pockets and nodded nonchalantly.

This made some of the people around who were originally waiting to watch the show a little annoyed, they originally thought that Guding would come up and question the motives of several rank keepers, and then after a fight, they would be captured by the rank keepers. Unexpectedly, Guding was so cooperative, and he didn't even raise a question.

Brim stood up and raised a frown, "Do you know what we're here for?" ”

"It should be that Carothers guy is dead, and I can't think of any other reason to lead the Guardian of the Golden Armor to come forward." Of course, Gooding won't say, I already knew Carothers was dead, and I saw you waiting outside. Although he doesn't like to lie, he is even more reluctant to expose the existence of the Sea Emperor.

"In the gates of purgatory, murder is a felony without a life and death agreement. I will take you to trial now, and don't try to escape, you can't escape in my hands, although your strength has improved a lot lately. ”

Speaking of this, Brim's gaze swept over Guding, and he could see at a glance that Guding's strength had risen significantly, and he was also a little surprised in his heart. After all, it had been less than ten days since Gu Ding entered the cultivation tower, and as far as he knew, Gu Ding had entered the first layer of the cultivation tower, and there was no time to accelerate the effect.

Gooding nodded, and galloped away with the three Rank Keepers.

To prevent him from escaping, Brim led the way, followed by two silver-armored guards. In a triangular shape, it covers him.

Gooding didn't even think about escaping, no matter how he did. It's still in the gates of purgatory. Moreover, the strength of the three rank keepers is stronger than himself, and he will be captured if he can't escape far, so there is no need for that at all. So, honestly followed behind Brim.

But what made him feel strange was that the direction that the golden-armored rank-keeper was heading to was the cafeteria.

And when he stopped. It also happens to be at the entrance of the cafeteria.

"Take me to the cafeteria? What is the meaning? Gooding was a little puzzled.

"Come in with me." Brim waved at Gooding and stepped into the cafeteria.

Gooding and two other Rank Keepers immediately followed.

At this time, there were already many people sitting in the cafeteria, and when they saw Guding's entry, many people looked at him.

Gooding looked up into the distance, and the innermost part of the cafeteria had been cleared out, and a large silver table was placed. A woman sat in the middle, flanked by gold-armored guards. There were seventeen of them, and apparently with the man he had brought with him, eighteen of the orderkeepers had already arrived.

Brim found his place to sit down, and Gooding was taken to a chair on the other side of the table by the two silver-armored guards.

Behind Guding, there was a crowd of onlookers, many reservists in silver and black armor, and many prisoners in black and white striped clothes. This battle made Guding a little speechless.

"I'm Warden Victoria. The trial is taking place here today in order to make the entire trial process transparent. It also guarantees absolute fairness and fairness. Victoria wore a black dress with a grim expression, and as soon as she spoke, the entire cafeteria suddenly fell silent.

In the cafeteria, many people heard about the trial and came one after another. But they were all quiet and sat in the back row, without making a sound to interfere.

"The case of the prisoner Gooding, who ignored the rules of competition in the arena and beat Carroses to death, is now on trial!" Victoria gave the order. "The Rank Keeper begins to ask questions!"

The gold-armored guard sitting on the far left was the first to stand up, "Gooding, did you deliberately interrupt Carothers' admission of defeat during the competition, covering the opponent's mouth, and smashing the opponent's jaw so that he could not speak?" ”

"That's right." Gooding did not deny that he did such a thing, and that it was monitored in the arena. Even if he denies it, when he calls up the surveillance, he will know what the facts are.

At this moment, the first man sat down, and the second gold-armored keeper stood up again, and the man's position was on Victoria's left-hand side, next to Victoria.

"Gooding, are you still attacking after Carothers lost consciousness?"

"That's right, but since the referee didn't call a stop, I don't have to stop, right?" There is some truth in Gooding's words.

"In the arena, the referee may also have his vision impaired and affect his judgment, so the competitor should take the initiative to stop and let the referee make a judgment after the opponent loses consciousness. And you know that the other party is unconscious, but you are still continuing to attack, does it mean that you had a subjective intention to attack at that time? ”

"Let's just say that as many punches he punches me, I'll return as many punches, and of course I won't stop because he's unconscious." Gooding did not deny this either.

The second man nodded at Victoria and sat down as well.

The third person to ask the question was Belinda, who stood up and looked at Gooding, "Gooding, do you have any thoughts about killing Carothers?" ”

"No, I know though, that guy is a scumbag. But in the arena, it's a place to learn. The reason why I threw so many punches was just to fight him back. Whether or not he will survive is not in my consideration. You can watch the video of the battle, and I said at the time that it was up to him whether he survived or not. Gooding said, projecting the video that the Sea Emperor had intercepted.

There is an original sentence in that video that Gooding said: "You just punched me more than 3 million punches, fair trade, and I will return you the same number of punches." As for whether you survive or not, it's up to your luck. ”

After watching this video, Belinda also nodded and sat down.

After that, several more of the rank keepers also asked a few innocuous questions.

The questioning process took more than half an hour, and seeing that no one had any other questions, Victoria spoke again, "Now ask the prisoner to make his own statement, and then we will vote on whether he is guilty or not." ”

Gooding also stood up again, "First of all, I don't have the subjective will to kill Carothers, which you should have seen in the video. Secondly, Carothers was not killed by me directly in the ring, but died because the treatment did not work. So, I personally believe that I am sinless myself. ”

"Alright, let's start voting and decide whether we are guilty or not." Victoria nodded, and instead looked at the Rank Keepers on either side.

After a while, the verdict of the nineteen people came out, and only Victoria, Belinda and Brim chose not guilty, and the remaining sixteen people all chose to be guilty.

Sixteen were found guilty and three were found innocent. The warden had ten votes, so the trial votes were sixteen for guilt and twelve for innocence, and the final verdict was guilty! Victoria gave the verdict with a blank face.

The crowd immediately chatted.

"The wardens are all on Gooding's side, but they are still guilty......"

"The warden was willing to help, but he still didn't."

"I don't know what kind of punishment Gooding will receive."

……

"Now that the verdict has been handed down as guilty, the trial has been suspended, and I and several of the order-keepers need time to discuss how to punish them. The punishment result will be announced in the afternoon! After Victoria finished speaking, she took the eighteen order-keepers and took the elevator to the ninth floor of the cafeteria.

I chose a room and rushed in.

Gooding had long expected this outcome, and he was more surprised that someone had just chosen not guilty, and Victoria turned out to be his own.

But the next question to consider is how long you will be confined in confinement, according to what the Sea Emperor said, that confined space is not a simple place. If he couldn't practice for hundreds of years, it would indeed be a real torture for him. He could only hope that the sentence would be shorter.

However, the specific duration of confinement will be not up to Gooding to decide, so he ordered a few dishes very relieved and ate slowly.

Seeing that everyone around was speechless for a while.

"This guy is about to be confined and is still so calm."

"I guess he doesn't know how horrible it is to be locked up."

……

On the ninth floor of the cafeteria, nineteen people sat in a circle.

"How long do you think it's better to be sentenced to this confinement?" Victoria's gaze swept over the eighteen gold-armored guards.

"At most, he is a manslaughter who is too heavy, and he has no intention of killing, so he can only be regarded as a small mistake, and I have built it for ten years."

"Ten years? In the past, the minimum confinement time was 100 years, so we can't break this minimum because of him, right? I think that at least 100 years is the lowest bottom line to be guaranteed. ”

"I also built yì a hundred years ......"

"A hundred years, it can't be lower, otherwise others will think that we are doing privileges for Gooding."

……

"Since everyone said so, then it was decided, a fine of one million points, and a hundred years of confinement......" As soon as Victoria's voice fell, three figures suddenly appeared.

"Warden Chief, Gu Ding's incident this time, let's pronounce the death penalty." A voice suddenly rang out.

"Lord Commander!" Eighteen golden-armored guards stood up almost simultaneously and bowed to the three of them.

"Lord, isn't that right?" Victoria also felt a little embarrassed, after all, she was still more optimistic about Gooding, and Gooding and Reed were good friends, and Reed and his master were old friends.

"You guys go out first, we have something to say to the warden." Baigrave said with a wave of his hand.

Eighteen orderkeepers bowed and left the room one after another.

"Gooding's situation is very special, and the three of us have thought about it for a long time before making this decision. What we mean by capital punishment is not a direct execution, but a preparation to open the death mode of the confined space, in which he can fight ......" (to be continued......
