Chapter 69: Manipulation

The giant man seemed to feel the pain, snorted in his nose, and turned his face to let out a growl at the child.

At this time, Hall and Shakira both saw the giant man's face, and immediately broke out in a cold sweat, and there was a panicked exclamation from the crowd.

I saw that only half of the giant man's entire face resembled a human, and the other half was covered with black hair, and his eyes were also yellow and blue, with a mouth of fangs, it was simply a combination of a man and a giant bear, comparable to the face of a demon!

By the time Hall and Shakira's hearts were pounding, the kid who had thrown the stone sat down in fright, his crotch wet.

Seeing that the child was frightened like this, the giant man with a bear face actually laughed, and his face became particularly hideous.

Originally, the circle of people who came to see the excitement, since they saw this bear face, the encirclement quickly shrank back, and all of them looked miserable.

"Burn him ......"

"Burn him...... Despicable elves...... Terrible beast!"

"Yes, burn him!"

It didn't take long for angry shouts to come out of the crowd.

Hearing this shout, Hall slowly woke up from the fright just now, and he gradually understood why humans discriminated against the fairy race, such creatures are indeed fundamentally different from humans, at least in appearance.

Seeing the giant man scaring the child, one of the silver-armored knights in front of him stopped, pulled out a whip from his waist, and whipped it twice on the giant man, and suddenly his skin opened and he wailed.

After whipping these two whips, the knight said viciously: "Bedbug, you are about to be hanged, don't give me honesty! Be obedient and obedient, you can suffer less flesh and skin!"

Although the giant man was whipped, he did not show weakness at all, and said through gritted teeth: "I just took two loaves of bread, and when I make money, I will pay you back, why do you want to hang me!"

The corners of one of the knights' mouth twitched, and he smiled evilly, and said: "Stealing bread is just a trivial matter for human beings, we can turn a blind eye, but you are a goblin, a foreign race, today you steal bread, tomorrow you will go to the street to steal money, and the day after tomorrow you will definitely kill people and set fires." The goblins are all beasts, and their hearts are more evil than hungry wolves, and as a slave, it is already a great crime for you to escape from your master, and you dare to steal things, and if you are not hanged, there will definitely be endless troubles. ”

"Bah, if we were beasts, then you would be devils! When Ragnarok didn't help your human nature god Faro defeat the demon gods, would you be where you are today? When your human homes were destroyed and displaced, who selflessly took you in? Today, your power is stronger than our goblin clan, and you have forgotten the favor of the past, and you will take revenge, don't you blush!" The giant man's anger was difficult to suppress.

Not only did the knight not blush, but he also said with a sneer: "Don't mention those old things about the old sesame seeds and rotten grains to my uncle, what era is it now? I advise you to save some effort, if you want to blame the lowly bloodline of the goblin clan, how can beasts be compared to people!"

After saying that, he was about to pick up the whip again, but was stopped by another knight, and the knight frowned slightly and said: "Forget it, he will be executed soon, the death is in vain, and now it doesn't matter what he says." ”

The knight with the whip snorted and said, "If a man dies, he is also a man, and he is an animal!"

"Let's go!" After saying this, he tugged at the chain again, and pulled the giant man step by step towards the wilderness at the west end of the village.

At this time, Shakira frowned tightly, looked at Hall, and said: "Although this goblin is terrible, I don't think he is a bad person, he escaped as a slave, he was penniless, he must have been so hungry that he went to steal bread, and what the knight said was too much, how can the goblin be called a beast? How can a beast have a mind, how can it have its own civilization and language like humans?"

Hall nodded and said, "You're right, I think if it weren't for the giant man's hunger, it is estimated that the two knights are not his opponents, and I think he is also a hot-blooded and upright man, we have to find a way to save him." ”

Shakira nodded and said, "Is there any good way for the teacher? When the execution is carried out later, it will be in full view of everyone, and if we rescue people, it is tantamount to going against everyone, which is too public." ”

Hall smiled and said, "Don't worry, I've got a plan! ”

After speaking, the two of them followed the knight and the villagers who were watching the excitement out of the west gate of the village.

Of course, the gang that had been following Hall from the restaurant was among them.

After leaving the west gate, on the vast snowfield, everyone saw a simple gallows standing in the wind and snow from a distance, and the ropes on it swayed slightly with the cold wind, which looked particularly desolate.

The two knights pushed the giant man to the gallows, and of course the giant man refused to die like this, and struggled desperately.

The knight had no choice but to hold on to the strong man to the death, and the other to get the rope of the hanging.

These knights were the knights of the Praetorian Guard sent by the royal family to guard important areas in various places, and the golden wheat ear logo on their backs was the same as the pattern engraved on the gold coins, indicating that they were directly under the royal jurisdiction and had great power.

Moreover, these royal janissary knights are all elites, at least at the level of intermediate knights (equivalent to a fifth-level magic apprentice), and it is no problem to fight twenty or thirty of them against civilians.

So even though the giant man had a little strength, he was finally restrained by one of the knights, and the other man successfully put the neck sleeve on him.

The knight who had hugged him breathed a sigh of relief and stepped aside.

Then, he turned to the people around him and said, "Thank you for coming to watch the execution today, this despicable goblin in front of you is extremely vicious, escaped from slavery without permission, and then stole property, according to the laws of the principality, sentenced to hanging, and began the execution!"

At this time, the crowd cheered, and their mouths read: "Eliminate the evil for the people, rejoice, long live the king, long live the pope!"

Hall didn't know why these people were so ignorant, this knight's evidence was full of loopholes, even if it was true, he would not be guilty of death, and these people in front of him were like taking drugs, which was really terrible.

As soon as the execution began, the knight who held the rope behind him began to turn the machine and slowly hoisted the giant man up.

When Hall saw that the giant man was about to be hanged, he was about to make a move, when he suddenly found that a claw-shaped pattern on the giant man's head suddenly lit up, and then a powerful white aura erupted from his whole body, and his muscles bulged slightly.

The two knights were taken aback, and shouted, "This is a fighting spirit! This guy has actually cultivated a fighting spirit!"

Although the momentum was terrifying, it was just the dying struggle of the giant, which was short-lived and quickly disappeared.

The knight who had held the whip before rolled his eyes, thinking that it was good that the giant man hadn't eaten and couldn't show his fighting spirit, otherwise neither of them would have been his opponents.

Intermediate knights have just cultivated their sword qi, and if they want to cultivate their fighting spirit, they must at least be junior Templars, and it is estimated that it will be difficult for them to reach that level in their lives.

Now, if you can hang the goblins and villains who have cultivated a fighting spirit of a people, it will undoubtedly be a great achievement for the principality, and when the time comes, the fiefdom and silver will be at your fingertips.

Thinking of this, the knight smiled secretly, drew the sword at his waist, and was about to poke a giant man into a few transparent holes.

Just as he was aggressively moving forward, suddenly a person shouted in the audience: "Wait!" There was a bit of immaturity in his voice.

Everyone hurriedly looked back to see who would help the terrible goblin clan, but the knight who wanted to kill the goblin giant didn't care so much, and stabbed the giant man in the back with his sword.

With a thud, the sword stabbed into the giant's sturdy muscles, and at the same time, an arrow flickered, piercing the knight's throat.

The knight was taken aback, and hurriedly drew his sword, swung it in a block, and knocked the arrow away.

"Who is it!Who is so bold as to attack this knight!" the knight was furious and looked into the crowd.

I saw a man in the crowd with a bow and arrow, facing the knight, still maintaining the posture of archery.

This man is one of the few adventurers who have officially eyed Hall.

"Pegasus Adventurers' Guild!Are you an adventurer?" Seeing the badge on the man's shoulder, the knight became even more angry, and scolded, "Don't you Pegasus Knights want to do it! The Praetorian Knights gave you the adventure badge to rebel?"

"No, no, knight, it's not like that!" the mustache and horseface from before hurriedly explained, shaking his head like a pendulum.

"That's not the case? What the fuck is going on?" the knight was furious, sword wielding his sword as the men walked over.

However, at this time, the mustache also drew his saber and stepped onto the platform, but his posture of drawing the sword seemed to be a little stiff.

But the knight was angry, and he didn't see anything wrong at all, but said in surprise: "Yo, the little adventurer is really going to rebel today!

The mustache, who was already sweating profusely, hurriedly pressed the hand of the abbot with his other hand, and said, "My lord!

The horse's face also hurriedly came up and grabbed the mustache, but he couldn't pull it at all, and saw that the mustache had already stabbed the knight with his sword.

The knight was furious, picked away the attack of the mustache, and said, "If you don't listen to the call, the lord will cut it off for you!"

As soon as the knight stepped forward, the blade of the sword pointed directly at the mustache's shoulder.

This sword brought up three white air currents, making a strong sound of breaking the air, and the momentum was terrifying.

When the other knight saw him use this move, he said, "Are you crazy! If you use sword qi here, you will hurt the people!"

"This is sword qi?" Hall looked at it from the side, with a look of novelty on his face, he thought to himself that this sword actually had the power of an ice edge of the fourth or fifth level ice archery technique, which was really extraordinary, it seemed that the knight was really not a vegetarian.
