Chapter 171: A Knight's End II
Just as Griffin was happily waiting for the "hearing" to give him justice, the dark clouds of conspiracy were about to be completely exposed, and justice would finally come.
Everything has changed.
First, the bishop appeared in the waiting room, and without trial, directly and unilaterally declared Griffin innocent, and took out a bottle of so-called "holy water" to perform the [baptism] ceremony directly on Griffin.
However, Griffin's sharp eyes spotted the tiny purple crystals in the bottle of "holy water" that had not completely dissolved, which seemed to be the size of a tenth of a sesame seed, and decisively saw through the bishop's conspiracy.
Later, Griffin rummaged through countless texts and learned that the purple crystal was an essential material for an evil ritual.
The effect is that the magic of a person drenched in this liquid can be plundered onto another person, at the cost of having a high probability of falling into madness when he is old.
At the subsequent "hearing", the archbishop was detained in court on "trumped-up" charges, covered his mouth and couldn't say anything, and countless punishment knights and papal wizards surrounded the entire venue.
Griffin is worthy of a generation of geniuses, stunned by putting more than fifty layers of shields on his body, without killing a single person, he rushed out of this [baptism] hearing that was nominally to justify his name, but in fact it was a trap that planned to kill himself completely.
Just as Griffin was hiding everywhere and trying to find someone with a high enough status in the Holy See to prove his innocence, a terrifying piece of news completely broke Griffin's defense:
All the people in the [Baptism] ceremony of the Holy See Inquisition on that day were killed by an extremely evil spell, and none of them survived!
And the biggest feature of that evil spell is that the more people you kill, the more powerful your own defensive spell becomes.
Everyone suddenly realized, and only then did they know why Griffin was so powerful that day, and he was able to withstand the attacks of everyone present, it turned out that he had cultivated such evil spells.
At the same time, the Holy See's attack on the wizarding colony was found out by the Ministry of Magic's veteran Auror [Mad-Eye] Moody!
In connection with the kind of evil spells found in the [Baptism] ritual venue, the Holy See issued a solemn statement:
The act of slaughtering wizards is the personal act of an evil knight who practices evil and terrifying black magic, and has nothing to do with the Holy See!
Griffin knew he couldn't explain it completely.
At the same time, the eldest brother Alex Percival, who had just returned from his mission, was said to have almost apologized on the spot after hearing the news.
After repeatedly confirming that "the evidence is ironclad" and "there are no mistakes or omissions", Brother Alex Percival took the initiative to apply to be the [adjudicator] of this case and made a blood contract:
Griffin will never be merciful, and will personally judge Griffin!
When Griffin is adjudicated by hand, he will return the title of [Adjudicator] and become the lowest-ranking Knight of Punishment again, completing the most difficult task to atone for the "crimes" committed by his brother.
Now, the eldest brother, who has been hiding for several years and thinking about it day and night, has finally appeared in front of him again, how can Griffin not be so excited that he cried?
Over the years, Griffin has insisted on finding a way to contact his eldest brother and try to explain the truth, but most of his letters have been intercepted by others.
Under the "ironclad" evidence of the Holy See, [the adjudicator] did not believe anything Griffin said in his letter, not even a single punctuation mark.
In the end, he even swung his sword and slashed countless owls that delivered the letter, and Griffin completely gave up hope of communicating with his eldest brother.
Joseph Griffin, the iron-clad man, a knight who could still calmly deal with him in the face of countless [Avada Curse] green rays shooting at him, when facing his eldest brother whom he hadn't seen for several years, he was a little teary-eyed for a while:
"Brother, I miss ...... so much"
"Shut up, I don't have a brother like you."
The greetings have ended before they have even begun.
Alex Percival doesn't seem to be intent on giving Griffin a chance to explain.
"If you still recognize me as a brother, kneel down now, let me seal the magic power in your body, and break your legs.
I will personally take you back to the Holy See Inquisition, I have accumulated a lot of achievements over the years, and I am willing to try to use all my merits to help you atone for your sins.
From now on, you will be at home in bed with peace of mind, and I will take care of you for the rest of your life.
Don't mention anything else, that's the bottom line I can do.
If they don't agree, I'll die for you. ”
"I was wronged, the corps commander forged your letter, I have evidence!"
With Griffin's words, several very old but well-preserved letters were taken out of Griffin's pocket and handed to the Adjudicator.
What I never expected was that the [Adjudicator] tore a few pieces of letter paper in front of him to shreds with just one glance!
"That's your evidence?
In the paper basket of your dormitory, there is a draft of your practice of forging the writing style of the Legion Commander, which you tear to shreds. But didn't expect it, right? I found all these small mistakes of yours.
These things are just evidence that you forged afterwards and used to deceive me.
You can't say that even the evidence found in your dormitory was maliciously forged by someone else, right?
If you really have the face to say it, then I really look down on you.
My brother Alex Percival, even if it's a Dark Lord, it's a big deal that I, [Judge] Percival, will fight with you to the end, at least my brother is barely a hero, although he has gone down the wrong path.
But you are so blindly using such indiscriminate means, don't blame me for looking down on you. ”
With that, Alex Percival completely covered the visor of his helmet and raised the knight's spear in his right hand and pointed it straight at Griffin.
Obviously, Brother Alex Percival is no longer willing to say another word, and at this moment, he is only the [Adjudicator] of the Holy See, and he is carrying out the "justice" in his heart.
Griffin completely abandoned all unrealistic illusions.
You know, these letters forged by the Legion Commander based on the notes of the [Adjudicator] are the last and only evidence of Griffin!
At this moment, as his most respected eldest brother tore up his only remaining evidence with his own hands, Griffin's heart became completely scarred with the confetti flying in the sky.
He knew he would never go back.
Touching a handful of tears, Griffin also raised the knight's sword in his right hand and pointed straight at the [Adjudicator] on the opposite side.
"It seems that this time I can only [commit the following offense] and wake up my brother.
After all, big brother, you once said, "We can never wake up people who grew up eating since childhood".
Over the years, I have been displaced and hidden, and I have also learned a lot of new skills.
So much is useless to say, duel.
It's going to be a duel between you and me to decide who is the real 'paladin'. ”
As soon as the words fell, there was a "boom", and the silent astronomical tower on the top floor of the castle suddenly burst out with a white light that was enough to illuminate the entire sky!
In an instant, both Griffin and the Adjudicator thought it was dawn.
Griffin was so anxious that he stomped his foot: "It's broken, I forgot!" Li Fei is in danger!! ”
Then turn around and run!
"Boom !!"
The entire field outside the Forbidden Forest shook, and a golden hammer that seemed to fall from the sky slammed down in front of Griffin.
As if a demon god and an angel descended on a person at the same time, the [Judge] was surrounded by endless demonic flames and holy white light, and walked towards Griffin step by step.
"Don't try to run away in front of me, you can't escape."
"If you can't take my [Hammer of Repentance], send me to hell to repent forever!"
