Chapter 125: Athena Longs for Guidance (1)

"I mean, a public trial."

"Convene all the nobles, clergy, and even commoners of the Imperial City of Orville to try the crimes of Karthas in front of a large court." Qin Chu completely ignored the shocked gazes around him and said, "The scene can't accommodate so many people, so the process of judging Karthas will be conveyed through a magic image." ”

"The front page of the newspaper is published, and it is important to let everyone in the Heavenly Dome Continent know that Karthhas slaughtered three thousand two hundred paladins of the Holy See, and his crime is unforgivable and he is sentenced to death."

When these words came out, everyone was shocked!

This is a direct means to discredit Karthas, and he will be spurned and stinking for thousands of years if he dies...... The heart is too vicious.

Roswiser and Athena's faces also changed, and the four beautiful eyes of the two of them all stared at Qin Chu and subconsciously shook their heads.

A public trial of Karthhas for his crimes was absolutely unacceptable, and it was a disgrace to the reputation of the entire former Brave Squad.

The former Brave Squad is the only legacy left by Lord Geralt in the Sky Dome Continent, and they will never allow the things left behind by Lord Geralt to be stained with filth and be reviled by others.

"Brother Qin...... You heard what I just said, right? Wadsworth frowned: "Even if this matter is just worn out, it will cause turmoil, let alone a public trial...... We still want peace and stability......"

"Your Majesty Wadsworth, that's exactly what we do, that's why we have to do it all the more." Qin Chu replied calmly.

Wadsworth was interested: "Why? ”

You must know that when something particularly bad happened in the past, the way the Orville Empire dealt with it was to hide it if it could, and if it couldn't hide it, it would turn a big thing into a small matter, and it was not clear why Qin Chu deliberately made a big deal about it.

"Concealment only breeds suspicion." Qin Chu put his hand on his chest, bowed like a gentleman, and began to discuss his opinion.

"Your Majesty Wadsworth, do you think you can hide the things you want to hide?"

"No, don't take the people for fools, they know everything, they just don't say what they know."

"What you want to hide will only become a conversation between nobles, commoners, and after-dinner parties...... What you think is hidden, what you think is stability, is just a false peace. ”

Wadsworth's face was a little ugly, this was the first time he had heard of this opinion, which aroused Wadsworth's interest, and the man was quite open-minded and cheerful: "Brother, you go on. @*~~”

Qin Chu nodded and continued: "Concealment will only lead to the people's lack of understanding of the truth of the incident, and this lack of understanding will make people subconsciously speculate and guess what the truth is...... You know, once people start imagining it, it's often very exaggerated, if the evil you want to hide is ten, then in the minds of the people it's a hundred, it's a thousand. ”

"If you want to avoid panic by concealment, you can only cause greater panic in the end, but this panic has been well withstood by the people and has not erupted, but once it breaks out for many years, all the panic accumulates together, it is like a flood that bursts the embankment, and it can no longer be controlled."

"It's the same this time, can the fact that Karthhas killed so many paladins really be completely hidden? There must be other people who know about it, and the news will spread and spread in private. ”

"One will wonder why Karthas killed so many paladins because there is an irreconcilable conflict between the Holy See and the Brave Squad? Will this contradiction affect the cause of fighting monsters, thus breeding more fear? ”

"Only by convening a trial meeting and calling on as many people as possible to watch so that everyone knows the truth can we avoid the spread of panic." Qin Chu said a lot in one breath.

This is the punishment he prepared for Karthas, and he has endured it, and he wants Karthas to taste it too.

There seems to be some truth in these words.

Wadsworth, Augustus These people are by no means stupid, they are very shrewd, but because they have been in high positions and separated from the lower classes for too long, they do not know what the lower classes think.

Wadsworth seemed to be a little moved.

Roswiser and Athena were full of resistance, especially Athena, who looked at Qin Chu with more and more disgust, if it was really a public trial.

If it is judged, the reputation of the former Brave Team will be completely ruined, which is something that Athena will never allow.

After a short hesitation, Athena stood up and retorted: "Your Excellency, your words seem to have some truth, but since the people could withstand it before, then I think it shouldn't be a problem this time, and now at this critical moment, it's better not to cause extra trouble......

"Miss Athena, do you know where the limits of people's resistance to pressure are?"

Qin Chu directly launched a counterattack, his attack was quite fierce, under Qin Chu's gaze, Athena subconsciously dodged a little.

"You don't know, and I don't know...... But, who can guarantee that this time things will not touch their limits? Most of the members of the emperor *** come from civilians, and the supplies also come from civilians, in case of an outbreak, the chaos of the people will inevitably affect the army, the army of the empire, the army of the church, everyone knows that the death knights of the brave squad slaughtered a large number of paladins and warriors...... As the slaughtered party, he will subconsciously resist the master of the Brave Squad. ”

"Gradually, they will think that the strong are privileged, and even the soldiers who wantonly slaughter the monsters will not be punished, and then they will hate all the masters."

"The union of human beings will tear a huge wound because of this, I don't know much about monsters, I have only seen tens of thousands of minotaurs...... I don't know how much weight the burnt minotaurs could take up in the monsters, but I do know that the minotaurs are fierce and cruel, and they are enemies that must be treated with care......"

"Miss Athena, do you think that the severed human is still capable of fighting against the army of monsters?"

"If, in order to protect the reputation of Karthas, a sinner, the entire human race loses in the confrontation with monsters, can you bear this consequences?"

"Can you afford the consequences of human failure, becoming slaves of monsters, food, and even extinction?"

"Can you brave squad, can you afford it?"

Qin Chu pressed forward step by step, and every word was full of aggression.

Athena's attack grew stronger, her face turned pale, and she tried to fight back but couldn't speak......

She saw through Qin Chu's methods, it was a very shameless way.

The situations that Qin Chu used to carry out the attack were all pictures that might happen in the future, and it was the most extreme and worst result, and even the hat of human extinction was directly buttoned up.

Athena couldn't refute Qin Chu's words, because no one could guarantee that such an extreme situation would not occur in the future, and no one could afford the responsibility of human extinction.

It's sophistry, but it's also the most difficult.

"Would a public trial do the same?" Athena put up a weak resistance.

Without a pause, Qin Chu immediately replied: "No, if it is a public trial, the situation will be very different, first of all, the people know the truth, so they will naturally not think nonsense." ”

"For the paladins and the soldiers on the front line against the monsters, they will only hate Karthas and not others, and the split will not spread further."

"Most importantly, the fact that Karthus, as a super-strong man, was sentenced to death for slaughtering soldiers would also make the front-line soldiers feel valued, and their fighting spirit would not be reduced or even increased. @*~~”

Both Wadsworth and Santa Monica nodded.

"As for the members of your Brave Squad, it is best for all of you to show up at the ceremony and publicly condemn Karthus, and it is best to take the initiative to expel Karthas from the Brave Squad. This is a clear statement that you have made a clear line with Karthus, that you are different, and that you can protect the honor of the rest of the Brave Squad! ”

"What's more, there is also Benson who died in battle, which is just in contrast to Karthas, making the people believe that the brave squad is not all bastards like Karthas."

Athena wanted to refute, but she didn't know how to say it for a while.

Moreover, Qin Chu's words also have a certain amount of truth, Benson is dead, and the matter of Karthhas has been exposed, since it seems that it is the most correct choice to minimize the loss.

What's more, for Karthas, a fool who is tainted with the power of the evil god, Athena doesn't really want to help.

"That'...... Why, Arthas must have killed so many paladins for a reason, right? Athena was almost convinced.

"Reason, as much as you want, Karthas is contaminated with dark power, invaded by the will of the evil god and goes crazy, this is okay, although the Pope tried to save him, he was never able to recall Karthas's consciousness, and finally he could only be executed...... Isn't that enough, Karthas has done this kind of thing anyway, and no one will doubt it. ”

The four old foxes exchanged glances, and they all felt as if they were not bad, and finally Augustus spoke: "What Your Excellency the Brave said is very reasonable, and we also agree with the words of the Brave, since this is the case, then temporarily imprison Kartha, and when it is ready, it will be publicly tried." ”

After a pause, Augustus's gaze fell on Roswieser, and his expression gradually became fierce. Error-free updates @

Lothwiser turned pale, she knew it was time to come, and it had finally come.

"Lotswayer, you already knew about the slaughter of paladins in Kartha!" Augustus's voice was cold, and he shouted, "Say, are you also involved?" ”

Lothwiser's face was pale, and just as he wanted to justify, Qin Chu had already stepped forward to block Lothweiser behind him, and he bowed gentlemanly: "Your Majesty the Pope, you misunderstood, Her Royal Highness the Holy Maiden was not involved. ”

"Her Highness the Holy Maiden just doesn't want to cause a full-scale conflict between the Brave Squad and the Holy See and lead to a civil war among the human race, so please hide this matter from your Highness." Qin Chu explained apologetically:

"I'm sorry, I already knew about this, but I couldn't tell you the truth."

Qin Chu stood up and gave Roseweiser a clear name, although there were still faults, it was already much smaller.

It's just that the meaning in the words is much more insidious, do you see, the brave team is not afraid of a head-on conflict with you, and even wants to start a civil war, so be careful.

Athena and Lothwieser may not be able to hear it, but it is impossible for Wadsworth, Santa Monica, and Augustus, who are in control of the army opposite, not to be reassured by these words.

Lothweiser's eyes were flickering, staring at Qin Chu's back, and suddenly she felt that this man seemed to be quite good, right?

At this time, he was still talking for himself, and if it weren't for Master Geralt, maybe he would really have a good impression of him.

Of course, compared to Lord Geralt, he didn't even deserve to carry shoes.

But for the sake of him exculpating himself this time, it's not impossible to give him a little benefit in the future.

This kind of man, as long as he is the slightest temptation, will immediately pounce on him, like a dog......

Athena's gaze was a little pitying...... This poor man, still speaking for Lothweiser, you don't know who Catherine and Lothweser are, and you don't know that they are plotting to kill you behind your back, right?

What a pathetic man.

Because of the more serious matter of Karthas that needed to be dealt with, coupled with Qin Chu's intercession, Lothweiser and Catherine secretly took Qin Chu out of the imperial city and concealed the matter of Karthus's massacre of paladins, but they were simply criticized and passed like this.

As for Natia, she was also warned that if she encountered this kind of thing again, she must stop it.

At noon, Augustus entertained everyone, but because he had seen too many bloody human heads before, he basically had no appetite.

In the middle of the afternoon, Qin Chu left.

He hadn't taken a few steps when there was a rush of footsteps behind him, it was Rosewither, who was hurrying from behind with her skirt in her hands.

"Your Excellency the Brave......"

The soft and charming call made Qin Chu stop.

Coming to Qin Chu, Rosewiser***'s small hand caressed his chest that couldn't help jumping up because of the fast running, and the whiteness under the pure white saint's suit attracted Qin Chu's attention like a magnet.

I always feel that the neckline of the Holy Maiden dress seems to be more open, and I don't know if it is Qin Chu's illusion.

Qin Chu's eyes made Lothwiser proud, although there were Angelica, Natia, and even the rough Violet by the brave man's side, as long as he was willing to show a little temptation, the focus of the brave man would immediately focus on himself.

She, the Virgin Lothweiser, is not on the same level as the other vulgar fans.

The smug thought turned in his heart, but Roseweiser's face was as gentle as ever: "Your Excellency the Brave, thank you for interceding for me in front of the Pope just now......"

Qin Chu withdrew his gaze from the whiteness with great difficulty, and then shook his head very gentlemanly: "Your Highness the Holy Maiden, I didn't intercede for you, I just told the truth." ”

Roseway smiled softly, she was very satisfied with Qin Chu's answer:

"By the way, why did you scream just now?"

The voice was sweet and greasy, with some coquettishness, and it seemed that he was a little complaining about Qin Chu just yelling, if Qin Chu could shut up at that time, many things would not have happened.

Qin Chu's face seemed to be a little aggrieved, and he just stared at Lothweiser silently, and that kind of gaze made Lothweser inexplicably feel a little heartbeat.

After a long time, Qin Chu retracted his gaze a little lonely: "When I heard Augustus questioning Karthas, Her Royal Highness the Holy Maiden subconsciously looked at me......"

"I have always kept my agreement with you, but Your Highness has never trusted me."

"I'm sad."

He absolutely kept Roswieser's agreement, after all, he didn't tell Augustus that Karthus was the murderer, he just wrote a small note, and countless people in this world write small notes every day, which is not illegal.

Tell Athena the truth, it was Gero who did it, and what does it have to do with him Qin Chu.

What a gentleman who kept his promises, it was really touching.

Dropping a word, the sad Qin Chu didn't look back and left resolutely!

After a brief hesitation, Athena followed from a distance, and tonight she was going to look for Geralt again, she wanted to get Geralt's guidance.
