The next day, Xia Duo's second field mission to join the Inquisition began, this time not alone, but a small team, five people, led by a mid-level mage named "Oger".

In addition to Ouge and Xia Duo, two of the other three people are also mid-level mages, and the quality of this team is quite high, in addition to the mage team, there are also fifty ordinary soldiers.

Mainly used for chores, basically distributed by one mage, ten soldiers, and more can be applied for if needed.

"Let's go!"

Under Oge's order, all mages summoned magic mounts, which is also standard equipment for judges, and they received a lot of [summoning mounts] scrolls yesterday, and ordinary soldiers can only run along.

Of course, it's not right to say that they are running around. Fortunately, the speed of the mages is not fast, otherwise these people will definitely not be able to keep up after a long time.

……

This time I'm going to a place called "Lettuce Town", and the mission is similar to what Xia Duo received yesterday, which is also to investigate demon beliefs, but this time there is an additional clearing mission.

Once at the Realm, before entering the area of Lettuce Town, Ogg ordered everyone to take a break and let all the mages bless their spells before moving on.

At the same time, two ordinary soldiers were also sent to take the lead, shouting, "Someone from the trial court, everyone assemble!" ”

By the time the mages arrived, there was already a crowd of people standing in the clearing of the town, and many more were walking here one after another.

Xia Duo noticed that there were also men and women among these people, but the proportion of pregnant women among women was not as good as the Black Rock Town he had been to yesterday, just as Xia Duo was thinking about what Ouge would do.

I heard Ogg suddenly shout, "Hatton! ”

A thin middle-aged man immediately came out of the crowd, bowed, quite flattering to Ouge, with a smile on his face, "My lord, you are finally here!" ”

But Ogg didn't give him a good look, just said coldly: "Point people out, remember, don't be clever." ”

"Yes, yes." Hatton hurriedly agreed, and the sub bowed deeper.

But as soon as he turned around, he stood up straight, changed his face, and began to roll out his name triumphantly, "My mayor, stand up, your incident has happened!" ”

"Me?" At this time, the mayor of the town looked confused, and he didn't know what was going on, he looked at Ouge with some confusion, but Ouge didn't say a word, and Hatton, who got the signal, stepped forward in a few steps and grabbed the mayor out of the crowd.

At this moment, a group of soldiers stepped forward and separated the mayor from the crowd, and the townspeople immediately moved, but in the end they did not make any changes.

It's not because of magic, after all, they also received a magical education, but in the end they didn't become official mages, and most of them were even brushed down directly in the apprenticeship school.

They knew the limitations of the mage, there were only five mages, they swarmed up or scattered, maybe they really resisted, but with those fifty ordinary soldiers there, it made it almost impossible to resist.

Not to mention, the empire is in front of the general trend, they are not aligned, and under the suspicion of each other, how many people are willing to pay their lives for others to resist?

Then Hatton continued the roll call, and then he didn't need to pull people, he ordered one, and the townspeople looked at whichever one, the soldiers rushed over to catch it.

Until nearly half of them were named and pulled out, Hatton seemed to be a little unsatisfied, but after all, he didn't play clever.

And as more and more people came out, the people on the mayor's side seemed to gradually realize why they were pulled out alone, and the table gradually became a little panicked and uneasy.

"Add, Zach, you take these people out of town first." Oger commanded.

Zach is another beginner mage of the five-person trial team, Xia Duo and Zack looked at each other, both with doubts in their eyes, but the order still had to be obeyed.

These ordinary soldiers should have undergone a lot of training in advance, and the two teams belonging to Xia Duo and Zack immediately pointed their weapons at the mayor and others who were circled.

These nearly 100 people, who were pointed at by twenty people with weapons, did not even have any sense of resistance, and were taken away so numbly, Xia Duo was a little skeptical about the use of the so-called demonic belief.

"Zach, do you know what's going on?" Shado fell behind and whispered to Zack.

Zach also looked confused at this time, and there was even a hint of uneasiness in his tone, "I don't know, it's also my first time on a field mission." ”

It wasn't until outside the town that the nearly 100 people who were escorted reacted slightly, and the mayor first appeased the townspeople, and then said to Xia Duo and Zack: "Two adults, is there any misunderstanding here, we are all law-abiding civilians of the empire!" ”

Xia Duo and Zach were silent, except for the birth of children, the imperial laws are still relatively lenient for civilians, and the only possibility is the "demon faith" mentioned in the mission.

But in Eddie's memory, there is nothing else except that the demon resembles a human, looks handsome, and is good at leading people to fall, and there is not even a specific image of the demon.

And the demonic deeds, in addition to the attacks that have gradually increased in recent years, are more literal "degrading", and there is no more specific, not to mention Xia Duo, an outsider, even "Eddie", a native, feels a little abnormal.

At this time, when it comes to judging the demon faith, in addition to tasks and orders, there may not be more psychological fulcrums.

People will always tend to stand in the perspective of "justice", regardless of whether this "justice" is really righteous or not, as long as it conforms to their own cognition, but now the "justice" of the judge seems to be untenable.

These are ordinary civilians, and they will be judged just by a word of demonic faith?

Looking at Zack, whose face was gradually getting worse, Xia Duo also sighed silently in his heart.

After a while, Ogg arrived with more than a dozen townspeople, and with the final verdict - all of them were demon believers.

"Add, Zack, what to do with demon believers?"

The empire does not have laws in this regard, but demons are the natural enemies of human beings, and referring to the empire's attitude towards demons, it is the attitude towards demon believers.

There is only one word -

Kill!

Before Xia Duo and Zach could answer, the mayor and the others had completely lost their temper, they had also received imperial education, but they didn't become mages, and they still knew something about demons.

Some people collapsed to the ground when they heard that they were identified as demon believers, and most of them were very panicked and frightened, so they almost knelt on the ground and begged for mercy, only the mayor's sanity was normal, and he tried to explain one or two:

"My lord, we are not demon believers, we are all law-abiding civilians, how can we be demon believers?!"
