Chapter 1523: Execution in public
ββ¦β¦β
Now Ronald can't say anything more.
After all, even if he himself held the original text of the Divine Comedy like this, a large part of the spells would not be effective against these orcs.
The spell system of the original canon comes from humans.
While it has great power, it is also subject to strict restrictions.
The predicament that Marda is facing at the moment can only be attributed to their lack of careful preparation, and their failure to let the people in the team try the effect of spells against the orcs when they have the opportunity.
"Okay, I got it."
Just sighing, Ronald quickly regained his strength and actively consulted with Marda:
"In short, now that the information about Ole's departure has been exposed, we must now deal with the problem at hand!"
The view of the priest of the Holy Throne was much better:
"It's probably not as bad as we thought."
"During my time in [Song in the Forest], I can already roughly sense the power of their singing voices. A closer look at the state of the city shows that the rituals required to enter the Holy Capital have not been disrupted by the orc turmoil. β
ββ¦β¦β
"The wealth of society, which is dominated by the capitalist mode of production, is expressed in the form of a 'vast accumulation of commodities', in the form of individual commodities. Therefore, our research must start with the analysis of commodities......"
Ronald raised an eyebrow and went straight to chanting the incantation.
In terms of perception alone, he is not below Marda. But at such a critical juncture, sure enough, the information obtained by the spell was more accurate.
After all, the amount of value gleaned from the environment is not deceiving.
Soon, Ronald breathed a sigh of relief.
Because, as Marda had told him, the whole ritual could indeed be sensed from the environment at this moment.
After all, it's a huge ceremony built on the basis of an entire city.
Even if a few twists and turns in the city can affect it, as long as the scale is not enough, then the whole ritual can still continue.
"That's right, the ceremony is still going on, and we'll wait and see."
"As long as this state of affairs can be maintained until dawn, then we will not intervene in this unrest."
Marda nodded in agreement, "I think so too. β
ββ¦β¦β
On the other side, the orcs, who did not know that their fate had been quietly decided, were still arguing about the events of Oriel.
There is conclusive evidence of a doppelganger who is tied up.
Most of the guards who were still holding out to resist had given up the attack and switched to a defensive posture led by self-protection.
There are three people at the center of the controversy surrounding Olaire's doppelganger.
The head of the palace guards, the leaders of the rebel forces, and the representatives who came from the square.
The representative of the square has just finished his lecture and summed up the reality of what he has seen:
"Both, I know it's a special situation."
"But on both the good and the bad side, Lord Olaire's disappearance is an unavoidable topic. So, we need to get to the bottom of things first, so that we can determine how to define our position in the next changes. β
The leader of the rebel forces spoke almost in the next second:
"Even if he comes back, my mind won't change."
"[Song in the Forest] has maintained this appearance for too long, too long, and it is time for a new change to appear in this world."
Hearing this, the leader of the guards next to him glared at each other fiercely.
However, at this moment, in his eyes, the most important thing was not the rebellion in front of him, so he ignored the other party's disobedience, but directly focused on the representative of the square:
"Ge Lao, I support your idea."
"So where should I go to find Lord Orel now?"
"With his strength, it is impossible to disappear silently. And this puppet can do exactly the same thing as Lord Olaire, contacting the outsiders who broke in before, I think those guys may not be able to escape the relationship. β
"What, you want to break into the treasury of the palace?" The leader of the rebel forces on the side immediately spoke and mocked, "That place was strictly forbidden to enter before. Now you, a loyal fellow, are about to break the laws of your own monarchy? β
"For the sake of adults, this is a choice that must be made!" The head of the guard shouted directly, "If the Lord wants to punish me for this afterwards, then I am willing to accept the consequences!" β
Seeing that the dispute between the two began to heat up, the representative of the square hurriedly became a peacemaker:
"You two, don't be in a hurry."
"It's not like we're at a loss where we are, after allβisn't there still this Mr. Walter?"
With that, the three of them turned their eyes to the orc affairs officer who was also escorted.
Among them, the leader of the guards acted the fastest.
He stepped forward in two steps, pulling Walter in front of him with his left hand, while holding the spear in his right hand, and pressed the sharp tip of the spear against Walter's soft throat.
"Walter, I've never doubted your loyalty to Lord Oriel before!"
"But now, it's up to you to give us an explanation!"
ββ¦β¦β
The bound orc officer remained silent.
He looked at the leader of the guards in front of him, and then at the orcs who were watching the scene, but he didn't pay attention to the spear that stabbed his throat.
"Do you think I won't do it?" The head of the guard widened his eyes with rage.
At this moment, the spear had cut through the skin of the orc officer, and blood flowed down his neck to his chest.
"The truth." Perhaps stimulated by the pain, the orc affairs officer still spoke, "Knowing the truth at this moment may only bring destruction." β
The leader of the guards roared, "Walter, do you think this excuse can be prevaricated? β
At the same time, the spear continued to approach, and the sharpness of the orc officer's neck had almost reached the point where it was immediately fatal.
But in the face of the angry leader of the guards, and the spear that was about to take his own life, Walter was surprisingly calm:
"I understand your anger."
"But considering the reality, I will not and cannot speak now, or the real catastrophe will take away everything we have left in an instant."
The refusal of the orc officer to cooperate completely angered the head of the guard, and he gripped his spear and sent it forward:
"You traitorous ......"
When the leader of the guards was about to execute Walter in full view of everyone in a fit of rage.
The next second, he found that his hands were empty.
The blood on the spear was still dripping.
But Walter, who was supposed to be here, had already appeared in another position on the field with a figure supporting him.
At this moment, the orc affairs officer, all the ropes on his body have been untied, not to mention.
Even the freshly punctured wound on his neck is healing at an incredible speed.
Wait until the orc affairs officer heals from his injuries.
Ronald turned around under the gaze of all the orcs, and his tone was quite helpless:
"Well, I knew it wasn't that simple."
"Sons of Oriel, I can now offer you two options."
"First, everyone will learn the truth after today as if nothing happened."
"Second ......," said Ronald, taking the sword of Santa Caterina from behind him, and his face turned grim, "Then I will tell you at once what to do now!" β
