Fifty-eighth Sura Striker
"Your Majesty?!" Teemo was shocked, and for a moment, he suspected that he had a hearing problem. The expression on his face was like that of an innocent martyr.
"Guards, catch this traitor. Tessian commanded in a firm voice, and the soldiers looked at each other in confusion before proceeding to capture Teemo. For a moment, Teemo's left hand rested on the handle of the scimitar at his waist, but he finally didn't have the courage to pull it out of its sheath and let the soldiers tie him firmly with thick leather ropes.
The two soldiers, one on each side, grabbed Teemo's arm with one hand and pressed Teemo's shoulder with the other. "My lord, I did everything you said, I ......" the High Templar said as he struggled.
"Shut up. Coward. Tessian glanced contemptuously at Teemo, who was kneeling, and the look looked like a noxious reptile. "I'll explain this qiē well. He said to the Coral Witch.
Even Tessian's own supporters don't know what is happening at this moment. One by one, they became silent at the sight of Teemo being taken, their eyes full of doubt and shock.
Nefer watched the farce from the sidelines, her hands clasped to her chest. "The villains are killing each other, this scene is good. She didn't deliberately lower her voice when she said this, and many people around her heard it, and there was a burst of laughter.
If it was Teemo, he would definitely say something taunting about Nefer. Tessian, ignoring the dwarven gladiators, walked straight to the high platform of Timo's original Pen Fun Pavilion, and looked at everyone proudly. Camila followed step by step to the high platform, her breath unfathomable.
"Tyr has won!" Tessian didn't explain, but said something inexplicable. "Rejoice, Tyr has triumphed!"
Hearing his words, the people in the square remained motionless and did not understand what this meant, but Tessian did not confuse them for long, and then he began to state the reason for his previous absence.
"Citizens of Tyre, friends. The king said. "Today, another exciting piece of good news has befallen us, and we have won another hearty victory. In a precipitous pass thirty palesans away from the city, I, together with Rikaspasha, crushed five times as many mantis as our army!"
A voice of surprise rang out in the crowd.
"Rikas and you crushed the mantis army?" said Nefer, looking incredulous.
"Nefer, are you doubting the fighting power of Lord Rikas and our revolutionary team in Tyr?" Tessian said with his chin to Nefer. "Mantis people may seem terrible in the eyes of cowards, but they lack good weapons, proper staffing, and magical support. They don't have the courage of Lord Ricas, or my brilliant command. ”
And Rikas is not like some people, who are still stuck in factionalism even today. Ctesian said. "Didn't the day our new government come into existence say that no one should be treated unequally because of his or her origin, and that the only measure of a person is his deeds?"
"Why do you preach an equal society for all, but at the same time always attack me harshly because I am a Templar?" asked Tessian mercilessly. "Thankfully, Master Rikas is much more enlightened than you, he has completely abandoned factionalism and is close to me on the battlefield, and thanks to this, we have been able to achieve such a great victory today. ”
As soon as the king waved his hand, a dozen officers streamed out of the palace. Each of them carried a bulging bag on their backs, "Time was pressing, and I only brought a dozen of my cronies back from the front on a magic carpet." But even so, I have brought you proof of victory!"
Taicien's words were sonorous and powerful. As soon as he finished speaking, ten officers with bags on their backs stepped forward and dumped their contents on the ground. There was a big bang, a large pile of turquoise carapace-like things were spread out, and there was a terrible stench, and those who stood close had to cover their noses with their hands, or step back,
"This is the mouthpiece of the five thousand mantis men that our warriors of Tyre have cut down!" said Thesian.
Ten officers took a half-step back, and several other men with bags on their backs immediately stepped forward and dumped their contents on the ground. The sparkle of light reflected in the eyes of everyone who watched intently.
"This is the gold and treasure we have seized!" Tessian continued. "And they belong to everyone in Tyr!"
"Let every Tyre benefit from our victory, and let every enemy of Tyre toss and turn in response to our victory. That's what I want. Ctesian said. "I have never made any pact with any dictator or tyrant in the desert, and I will never beg Abu Polis to secure my position. ”
"Really?" said Nefer, speaking to the hearts of many people.
"But the so-called blood tax is not out of nowhere, but the details are often suspected of chasing after the wind. Tessian ignored Nefer and continued to speak, only raising her voice slightly. "I would like to begin by apologizing to Shatiri the Coral Witch and Muhadi the Psychomancer for my dereliction of duty, for the former having to run around and the latter for being wronged. He bowed slightly to the two of them as he spoke.
The Psychic Warlock frowned, wondering what kind of trick Tessian was up to.
"First of all, I have to admit that the fact that prisoners of war were smuggled and handed over to Polis does exist. But this is not my own intention. The king said solemnly. "It was Teemo's own decision. He made a deal with Polis directly without me, and wanted to replace me!"
"But Nawen Jiàn......" Great Psychic Warlock Akith frowned.
"What is it?" the king asked rhetorically.
"His Holiness Muhadi submitted a series of documents, including accounts, directories, written orders, and a host of other evidence. The Great Psychic Warlock Akith said. "I have to say, from that above, you are not innocent. ”
"Lord Ages, can you lend me a look at what you said?" Tessian's tone was steady, and if he was a little uneasy in his heart, he would never be able to observe it from the outside.
There was a boo all around, and the king, like a reef on the seashore, stood still in the face of the raging waves. As for Timo, a high-ranking Templar who had been arrogant and invincible a moment ago, he had already been escorted to Muscle Daddy's side at this time. Seeing that his identity was reversed, the scarred but proud muscular daddy burst into a wild laugh that bordered on roaring in his throat, and spat a mouthful of bloody phlegm on Timo's face.
The Great Psychic Warlock Akith shrugged and turned his head to look at the Coral Witch, seeing that the latter had no objection. He gave the king the information that Muhadi had found. Most of the people watched from the sidelines, and occasionally someone whispered a few sarcastic remarks.
Guardian mages, members of the House of Representatives...... Fovard, Fahd, Nefer, and the Coral Witch, as well as almost everyone in the scene, were silent. I saw that Tai Xi's expression was extremely serious, and each roll of paper had to be carefully read from beginning to end. For a moment, in the center of the square, except for the sound of the people's breathing, all that remained was the sound of the king turning the scroll.
There was a lot of information, including the accounts of the thugs and spies, the attendance records of the former Templars, and the bits and pieces that everyone looked at King Taician's face and wondered if he could find a strong argument in this voluminous text. But when he saw that the king looked blank, there was neither joy nor disappointment. Seeing that he finished turning over the lizard paper one by one, he put away a large pile of texts again, and returned them to Akis with both hands. Close your eyes and meditate, not a word.
Muhadi looked at his appearance and looked unfathomable. The psychic warlock didn't like to sit back and hurriedly used his psionic energy to try to contact Camila. Let's see what the hell she's up to.
Obviously, there are more than one or two people who have the ability to probe this idea. As soon as Muhadi's mental tentacles came into contact with the druid's thoughts, he sensed the breath of several strangers.
The Starch Spencer sent the druids to be no good character, and as soon as Camilla had many psykers trying to peek into her and Tessian's brains, she immediately returned the favor. The female druid, on the one hand, closed her and Tessian's brains with instantaneous magic, and at the same time fought back without moving. Several psykers in the field were concentrating on digging up some big secret, but suddenly they fell to the ground with a strange scream. The people around wanted to help, but they saw that the skin of these people had almost begun to change color, and there was a pungent stench.
You said you would work with me. Muhadi was not counterattacked, and he reminded the female druid with his psychic powers. Why are you still on Tessian's side?
You are mistaken. Starch Spencer sent the druid's thinking to respond. I only said that I would let you go and give you something useful, I didn't say that I was on either side. If you have a brain, you should know that the survival of the fittest is the only criterion of the Starch Spencer Druid. If we want to take sides, we will only stand on the side of the strong.
So you think Tessian is better than the others? Muhadi asked sarcastically, Karak was much stronger than Tessian today, but he was also knocked to the ground. Are you so sure you can't make a mistake?
You're self-righteous again, Psychiocrat. The other party responded in his heart. I didn't say I was on Tessian's side. Can't you get rid of the attachment to someone because you've been a slave? Why can't I stand close to Tessian because I want to backstab him one day? Why can't I be on my side?
The Psychic Warlock is not satisfied with this answer, I don't care what grand arrangements you have for the future. Are you ready to help the king through this difficult time today?
The consequence of my actions today may be that Tessian has successfully defused this crisis of confidence. But everything I do here is for a far more lofty and ambitious goal. You will also benefit from it. So, don't bother me anymore!
Kamila cut off the connection between the minds, and Muhadi just wanted to ask again, but there was no way.
"Nefer!" said Tessian. "You say that I secretly kept the spies of the Witch King's period and used them to engage in misdeeds. What about your evidence?"
The dwarven gladiator looked at the king, who was much taller than her, without showing weakness, "Pseudo-king, are you blind?
Tessian smiled, "You're the one who should have the eyes, and there's only evidence of Timothy giving orders directly to the Assassins." But it can be proved that it was from me, and Timo wants to replace me, so he will spare no effort to discredit me and bring all these illegal deeds on my head!"
"Teemo!" Tessian shouted as Timo, the high-ranking Templar who was tied up and pressed to Muscle Daddy's side. "You ordered those two men to be sent to assassinate the psychic Muhadi, is there such a thing?"
Teemo was completely confused, not understanding why Tessian had suddenly changed his mind. After a pause, he gritted his teeth and shouted. "I'm wronged! Tessian, you want to make me a scapegoat!"
The king looked at one of the soldiers of Abtimus and struck him the back of the head with the hilt of his spear. The High Templar knelt forward, blood spilling from the corners of his mouth. Another soldier wasted no time in striking another spear in the cheek, knocking out several of Timo's teeth.
Thesian's eyebrows flew obliquely, and he strode up to Teemo. Grabbing the latter's throat with one hand, he forced him to look up at himself: "Tell the truth!" He spat out three words as if he had shot three sharp arrows.
Seeing this, Akis frowned again, and the corners of his lips moved, but in the end he didn't say anything. Most of the Guardian Mages are masked, and outsiders can't see what expressions they have. The great merchant Fuwad ibn Abbas pursed his lips and turned his head to give Fahd a look, who understood and took a step forward.
"If you want to strangle Timo to death, Tessian, we'll be happy to see it. But that would have to wait until he confessed truthfully. What you're doing now, hehehe, is more akin to killing people. The elf said.
Fahd's words were met with a chorus of approval, and many parliamentarians from tribal leaders were willing to wave their flags and cheer for him.
"As the saying goes, the dying have few secrets, and the dead have no secrets. Tessian said coldly. "Kill him and search his soul directly, less trouble, more truth. ”
The crowd roared, some with disdain, some with disdain.
"Maybe you should kill yourself, let's make sure you're not lying. Nefer's voice rang out again.
Tessian turned a deaf ear to this Jianyi, he let go of his hand and stood up straight, and said to himself: "Since these materials have written about the merchant who connected Timo and Teemo, then we will interrogate these two people together, won't the truth be revealed?"
"But my lord. The pink-skinned bald old woman asked in surprise. "Isn't that merchant dead? I heard that he was mad by psionic energy before he died, so he couldn't even summon him to ask about it. ”
"Crazy? Who do you listen to?" Tesian's eyes were sharp and full of energy. "Ah, I see, it must have been Timo suing you again, wasn't it?"
Someone nodded, so Tessian said, "So, you're fooled again." Timo was lying, the merchant was dead, but his soul could testify. ”
Even without the skill of mind reading, Muhathir could read the shock in Timo's heart through the fleeting look in his eyes. It seemed that the High Templar was really stunned, he really thought that the merchant had been driven crazy and killed. Now that I heard that this was not the case, I couldn't hide the shock.
The Psychic Warlock secretly speculated that perhaps Teemo had been betrayed by Tessian. Previously, the high-ranking Templars were still working hard to defend the king, but in the blink of an eye, they were reduced to prisoners. It would be too inconsistent to say that Teemo himself knew that he would be treated like this, and he spared no effort to work hard for the king. If Tessian didn't do anything behind his back, Timo couldn't have committed the problem of saying that the wrong merchant was crazy or not, which is too easy to debunk.
Muhati speculated that the most likely possibility was that Tessian had deliberately revealed the wrong information to Timo. He deliberately let the latter show his head, but he hid aside, probably waiting for the right time to clean up the latter as a scapegoat.
When did Tessian have the idea of sacrificing Teemo to save himself? When did he send Teemo to stop him in the desert, or did he send Assassins to assassinate him in the dungeon? Or did he think about how to get out one day, even earlier, when he had just come into contact with the messenger of Polis?
As a former Templar. Thesian himself is a powerful blasphemer mage. Although he didn't dare to cast blasphemer magic due to sensitive political reasons, he instructed the Guardian Mages to summon the ghost.
Next, after a little argument. A Guardian Mage, under the joint supervision of Tessian and Satilly, casts a spell to summon the spirit of a merchant. Tessian even agreed to pay for the magic with his own life force, citing the fact that "the king of Tyre is a servant of the people of Tyre".
Timo couldn't speak, and watched in horror as the power of magic gradually stripped the ghosts of the dead from their resting place. A translucent humanoid figure appears in mid-air, and then little by little it becomes clear. The face of the deceased was faintly recognizable, and it was clear that he was the merchant who acted as a middleman and a link between the caravan.
If it is a soul torn apart or driven crazy by psionic energy, it will also be distorted and turbid when it is summoned. The merchant's soul was clear and transparent, glowing milky, proving that Teemo had lied.
Even the dullest of the fools knew that Timo was going to be terrible when they saw it. More people are just curious, what method will Tessian use to pile all the charges on Timo's head next?
Tai Xian has a strong physique, and his face is only slightly pale after extracting some life force and casting spells. Seeing that the merchant's soul had been successfully summoned, he didn't talk nonsense and stepped forward to ask.
The souls of the dead are bound by magical energy, and they can only know everything and say everything. The king struck him three times, and then he made it clear that Teemo was the only one with whom he had been in contact. As for whether the leader behind it is Tessian, this businessman has never seen it himself, but he has heard Timo mention it, and he is only responsible for taking money to do things.
The King glanced coldly at Timo, then at the Coral Witch and her guardian mages. "Teemo," he said, "since your life is still of some use, I won't kill you yet." But if you dare not be honest about the problem, then even death will not allow you to escape from my palm!"
A strange excitement flashed in Timo's eyes, but in the next moment, the excitement was replaced by a deep fear and pain. Muhati had been carefully observing his movements, so he was aware of the change. Although he couldn't read the other party's exact thoughts, the psychic warlock could guess it, and Timo was very excited when he heard that there was still a chance to speak, and he would not allow himself to sit still. But then, Tessian seems to have used some secret and unobtrusive threat to Timo, who is completely frightened.
Muhati looked at Ctesian, looking for a clue. But the king's grim countenance was like an indestructible piece of armor, and not a single actual thought of his heart was revealed.
"Teemo!" Tessian asked. "Where did you hear about the messenger of Ebopolis coming to Tyre?!"
The muscles in Timo's cheeks twitched, as if he wanted to defend something, but when he spoke, he spit out, "You sued me." ”
"Have I not, then, made any agreement with Polis?, and have I signed any letter with Polis?" asked the king again.
Teemo could only answer no, and the Great Psychic Warlock frowned and spat out two words: "Tell the truth." ”
Muhathir also felt that Timo was telling the truth, but he suspected that it was only partial, but he had no evidence in his hands.
Tessian: "As you just said, I colluded with Polis to secretly instruct you to go to Atki to buy slaves, entrust a caravan to transport prisoners of war, and take in the Assassin agents of the former Witch King...... Have I ever said anything to you about these things, saying that if you want you to do these things for me, what benefit will I give you?"
Teemo looked more and more wilted, and he was weak when he spoke: "You didn't say that. ”
Truth be told, Akith gestured to the others.
"I ask you. You sent someone to buy slaves in Atki, and you ...... with this merchant," Tessian pointed to the summoned ghost. “...... Hitch up the line to transport prisoners of war to Ebo. Have you reported to me?"
Timo paused and said, "I've reported, I'm ......"
"Huh?" Tessian raised an eyebrow. "How did you report to me?"
"I'll just say it's done. Teemo looked like he was going to pee his pants, which was too unbearable for a Templar, as if he had been tortured for not saying a word.
"What's that 'that' about?" said Tessian, "have you told me?"
"Nope. Teemo said.
Muhadi was extremely observant, and Tessian really didn't play tricks when he was questioned. But every time Timo answered, the corners of the Sdach Spencer Druid's robe trembled slightly. I see, the telemancer thought that it was Camilla and not Tessian who was manipulating the puppet.
There were at least three-digit mages present, including ** masters like Satilly, and it was impossible to use magic tricks to control Timo. Most of the psykers live in isolation and have a perverse personality, and there are not many people who can catch up with the excitement of the Governing Council. But with Councilor Aikis as the leader, there are also many psychic warlocks who are pro-Coral Witches. Muhadi himself also has a small success of psionic powers, and it is impossible for the other party to use psionic energy to hide so many people left and right Temo.
Muhadi's left hand suddenly went cold for no apparent reason, and then he felt as if a large cold hand was grasping his heart. In the distance, Starch Spencer sent Druid Camilla to a cryptic smile, like a reminder to the Psychic Warlock, and like some kind of warning.
Muhadi concentrated, apparently trying to protect himself. However, the psychic ability that had performed many miraculous feats in the past was like a scimitar with a curling blade now, and it couldn't take effect. He raised his left hand and rolled up his sleeve, and saw the vine-like lines that had been hidden reappear. The dark green moss strangled the blood vessels in the forearm like a twisted rope, and gradually spread to the chest.
The king and the prisoner were still asking and answering, "What exactly did I tell you about the spies and assassins left over from the Witch King's time?"
"You remember all the original words, that's all there is to it. Teemo replied.
"I said I remembered them all, and you reassembled them all?" said Tessian. "This is obviously your misinterpretation of my meaning, your own personal accumulation, how can you blame me? The information here is clearly written, the assignment of tasks, and the contact with outsiders are all done by yourself!"
Hmph, Nefer snorted through her nose, "It's another Templar trick, you're the king, of course you don't have to tell what to do." The subordinates have long understood that they will do it for you, and now that something has happened, you can change your mind and say that it has nothing to do with you. ”
The female dwarf gladiator said sternly, "Even if you really don't know about Yiqiē as you claim, Yiqiē is Timo's own doing." But as a king, you don't even know that your subordinates have committed a felony of treason, and this is not a dereliction of duty? Even if you didn't make any deal with Ebupolis, you didn't even notify the ruling council of such an important diplomatic discussion, is this considered an abuse of power?
"Oh?" Tessian replied positively to Nefer's question, "Hasn't the Council been weakening my control over military power? Not only does the Coral Witch have her own private army, but I've heard that some people have even organized their own religious armies. I am facing a strong enemy on the front line, but you are sitting in the rear with peace of mind, why don't you deal with these problems? Isn't this the purpose of the ruling council to supervise the government?"
"In addition to Polis, there are many other rulers of Attas, who have sent us envoys, either explicitly or implicitly. Thesian looked around, and some of the timid people were swept by the king's sharp gaze, and they bowed their heads in fear. "Allow me to remind fools who know nothing but to oppose fault-finding, that diplomacy is a very delicate art. It includes deception and temptation, bluff and obscurity. If I bring any diplomatic issues to an open council, how can Tyre hide his bottom line in negotiations? Our internal contradictions and disputes will be clear to external forces, and the witch kings will be stupid enough not to use these contradictions to divide us?"
"Moreover, I think this kind of practice of being in a separate position and receiving from outside forces is already common, why should I be embarrassed alone? Did he report the details to the Consul, did he report the details to me, the King? He went straight to the Coral Witch, did the latter report to the Consul or to myself?" the king continued to ask.
When Sadiri was about to explain, Muhathir cleared her throat and preemptively defended herself: "Tessian!"
The Psychic Warlock said, "It wasn't me who approached Ram's Witch King, but Abella Chili who found me. "The witch king entrusted him to investigate the puppeteer's ** thing, Muhati didn't dare to say, but other details can still be said. "Ram is expanding his armaments, and this is what Abel Lachili told me. She told me that it was an act of self-defense after seeing Tyr defeat the Witch King's coalition. ”
"But it could also be Ram's attempt to disguise the true purpose of his military expansion," the psychic said as he focused on his abilities, slightly swaying the subconscious of the masses and making them more receptive to his words. Camila didn't seem to intend to stop him from speaking, and the feeling of being clutched in her heart faded, and the dark green moss that spread to her chest faded again. "So I commissioned the trusted mercenary Muscle Daddy to bring the letter I wrote back to Tyre. ”
Tessian glanced at Tyr and the mercenary who had been escorted aside, "Untie him." He said.
"Thank you, Your Majesty. Teemo said with a stutter.
"You keep kneeling for me!" Tessian ruthlessly shattered Teemo's illusions. "Untie the mercenaries to me!" he commanded Muscle Daddy.
Several soldiers untied the rope from the muscular daddy, who immediately stood up and spat out a mouthful of thick phlegm on one of the soldiers. The latter hurriedly dodged, but was still spit on the corner of his robe.
The mercenary was covered in wounds, but he still stood straight, like a dignified gladiator. The psychic sorcerer walked up to him and cast psionic powers to help him suppress pain, stimulate nerves, and speed up the healing of wounds.
"I didn't expect that," Muhati whispered to Muscle Daddy. "You did not heed Timo's threats to correct me for sin, and I will remember it forever. If there is anything you need help with, I will definitely help, you have my word. ”
The muscular daddy laughed, and the scars on his face were oozing blood. "My muscular daddy can still be threatened by a little injury? If they hadn't used some evil tricks to make Lao Tzu confused for a while, Daddy wouldn't have agreed to play. ”
"You were confused?" Mouhathir sensitively noticed, "and then?"
"When Daddy said you were guilty, you were really confused. Muscle Daddy blushed and admitted. "But after a while, I suddenly came to my senses again! Look at the look on Teemo's face at that time. ”
That's true, Teemo's expression at the time was as if someone had bitten off his dick.
Muscle Daddy said, "You just said that you would always be willing to help in the future, right?" Dad, I don't think it's necessary, you can do me a small favor, and you won't owe me anything in the future. ”
"What?" Muhati asked.
"Daddy was tied up for too long just now, and he just wanted to pee!" "I can't use the blood in my arm because of the lack of blood circulation, you can help me with a hand, that guy is too big and too heavy!"
Tessian watched the mercenary make noise and asked him in an impatient tone. "How did you get caught?"
When the Muscle Daddy saw that the king had asked, he squinted at the other and replied, "Daddy was walking in the desert, and he met a group of masked and lewd men, and one of the voices of the Timus thieves was this." He said as he kicked the latter in the ass, knocking Timo to the ground. "The gang didn't say anything, they came up and beat them, and I hacked seventeen or eighteen to death, and then I was arrested. ”
"You said you killed ** last time, how did it become seventeen or eighteen this time?" asked a soldier escorting the muscular daddy angrily.
Tessian looked at the mercenary with an elusive look for a moment, then said, "It seems that this is Timo's own act again, I was fighting on the front line at that time, and I have never given a similar order." ”
Teemo fell to his knees, not daring to defend himself. But the king's gesture of shirking responsibility completely angered the others. Not only did gladiators like Nefer drink and scold, but Fahd and Foward also vent their dissatisfaction in their own ways.
"Tyrant covets power!" shouted the angry crowd, but the opposition to Tessian had been lowered a little bit by this time compared to the overwhelming noise at the beginning.
"It seems that discussion and understanding will no longer solve today's problems. Tessian raised her hands and pressed down in a gesture. "Then if you want to make a motion of no confidence, I will not stop it. But if the motion doesn't work, then you must also respect the will of the people and stop questioning my crown!"
The king's retreat turned into advance, which made Nefer stunned for a moment. But the female dwarf gladiator then said with satisfaction, "Of course I am willing to make a motion, but do you think you can avoid being ousted by the people? Look around, Tessian, how many people are on your side?"
"If there's anything important I've learned in my 30-year career," Tessian said. "That is, never think you can judge people's hearts - that thing is as unpredictable as the wind in the desert. ”
Ekis shrugged his shoulders when he heard this, and the other lawmakers who opposed Tessian were naturally willing to push for a no-confidence motion. "Agreed," said one of the councillors. "Then let's start voting. ”
"Wait!" Tessian interrupted. "I have one more thing to announce before the vote. ”
"What is the greatest merit of the Coral Witch in your eyes?" asked the King.
"Defeating the Witch King Karak, of course, you tyrant. Nefer replied in a mocking tone. "Think of it with your stupid head, Karak is your former master. Pretty tall, mustache, if you think about it, you should still be able to remember. ”
"That's right, she killed a witch king, so she became one of the most important heroes of the Tyre Revolution, and is known by many as an eternal hero. Tessian pretended not to hear the latter half of Nefer's words, and nodded thoughtfully. "Today, I'm going to do the same. ”
Before the crowd could digest Tessian's words, he pulled out something from an enchanted pocket behind him, about the size of a human head. If you look closely, it's a severed human head. There was no hair, the skin was wrinkled and covered with age spots, and the broken wound on the neck had long since healed, and not a drop of blood had fallen.
"What the hell is this?" Councillor Fahd frowned, looking at the thing warily. An unsettling and disgusting spiritual force was constantly pouring out in all directions around it, and even ordinary people were aware of its unfathomable aura and demonic feeling.
In the eyes of the mage, the scene was different. The human head that Tessian took out was like a raging flame in the darkest night, tilting its magic around in an extravagant way. "This is the mana of the Witch King...... some mages couldn't hold back and exclaimed.
Muhathir saw the head, and a strange sense of familiarity welled up in his heart. The thing was still alive even though it had only one head left. Its spirit is as elusive as a raging sea, and Muhadi reads only from the surface of that ocean full of tyranny, madness, and rage...... Still seems a little scared?
"You must have recognized what this is!" Tessian looked directly into Satilly's eyes.
"Zacha of Auraya, First Fighter, Kobold's Curse. The Coral Witch muttered incredulously, her attention completely absorbed by the ugly head, and completely oblivious to the king.
Muhadi turned his head in shock and looked at Sadiri, Nefer, Fahd, Foward and the others. "Is this Zacha?" a Guardian mage still felt incredulous. "Didn't the ancient books say that the First Fighter disappeared at the end of the Purification War?"
"Legend has long been that although Zacha sided with the Primordial Warlock in the rebellion of Polis, he had a good personal relationship with Karak, so he hid in Tyre after his defeat. The Great Psychic Warlock Akith also stared closely at the human head in the king's hand. He was of hereditary aristocratic background and was a keen collector of antiques, so he knew a lot about the secret history of antiquity. "But how did he become like this, and how did you get caught?" said the last sentence to Tessian.
Even if some people still doubted the identity of the thing, hearing that Satili the Coral Witch and the famous Akith said so dispelled the doubts in their hearts.
Except for learned mages and some nobles, many commoners have never seen what the witch kings in ancient paintings look like, and they may not be able to remember the names of each witch king. But they listened to the conversations of a few people, and they already understood what was going on. People with faster brains also thought that Tessian said that he wanted to do the same thing as Satilly, could it be?
"At the end of the Purification War, Zacha was defeated by other witch kings and lost his body. For thousands of years, he hid in Tyre, serving as a staff officer for Karak. Tessian began to explain. "During the revolution you occupied the palace, but you didn't search for it. ”
"Some time ago, Zacha bewitched one of the palace guards and wanted them to help him escape from the city. But I took out this soldier in the army, and I killed him, and I captured Zacha. ”
"Today Zacha has lost his body and most of his strength, but his wickedness, his deceit, and his sins have not passed away with his power. For thousands of years, a considerable part of Karak's tyranny was the brains of Zacha. He's also guilty of a felony and a blood debt to Tyr!"
"And today, the debt has been paid!" Tessian's voice fell, crushing the withered head alive with the steel fingers of the lobster's gauntlet. Blood and brains dripped down his fingers. It was as if there was a scream ringing in everyone's mind, slowly weakening, and finally turning into an inaudible murmur in the wind.
Some of the councillors who were born as tribal leaders cheered, and their hatred for the witch king was embedded in the culture and hidden deep in the blood.
That Zacha, Muhadi thought, although he had lost his body, he did not look like he had no strength at all. Why didn't he resist? What was he afraid of?
