"Verdict: Guilty, and all divided by the death penalty, immediately executed!"

When Ed announced this, everyone present except for the criminals cheered loudly, especially the rescued women, who wept with joy, hugged each other and washed away the humiliation they had suffered for many years with tears, and the local soldiers who acted as prosecutors wanted to say words of thanks, but they were at a loss when they saw the seemingly familiar faces of the prisoners, and they still couldn't understand why the simple and friendly villagers had become the way they were.

The prisoners who were sentenced to death put on different appearances, some were so disheartened that they couldn't stand up and fell to their knees, some were hoarse, loudly insulting Ed who announced the decision, and some were crying silently, begging for forgiveness with the words I would change my past, and when the soldiers with cold expressions stepped forward to escort them out one by one, put on black blindfolds and sent them to the execution ground, they knew that this was the final sentence of their lives, and nothing could be changed.

Ed was standing across from them, with neither a platform nor a throne, he didn't need those things to show his power, and he could even kill everyone present in a matter of moments if he wanted to, but he still gave these people relatively fair and just treatment.

Today is a rare good weather after the rain, the sun has just broken through the obstruction of the dark clouds to poke its head out, and in an instant the earth is covered with sunshine, and the slightly moist air with the warm light makes people very comfortable.

However, he still had to perform the disgusting work, and turning to lift his footsteps, Ed followed the prisoners behind the line to the execution grounds, cheering on the crowd.

"Your Excellency. You really don't have to dirty your hands, just leave it to a dedicated executioner. "The guard behind him is still the same as last night. In the sunlight, he could be seen wearing a full-coverage visor under his hood, and the silver surface was extremely smooth. The edges are also depicted with fiery red patterns, and a double-edged battle axe on the back shows that he has extraordinary martial arts.

"Chesterton, you don't understand, everybody is to blame for what they do, like these guys who have committed crimes, and I believe that if they are given forgiveness now and thrown into a place full of order, and you will oversee them, you will find that most of them will change their ways, and only a very few will not change their bad habits. Ed didn't look back, he didn't like to preach. It's just that in his position, every word and deed may be misunderstood, and since he wants to bring the people around him and this army well, then he will not hesitate to bother with more words.

"Then why not, our army is such a place, and it would be nice for them to wash away their sins in war!" asked Chesterton, puzzled, as more soldiers around them pricked up their ears to listen.

"Because, before that, they must pay for their sins! If the punishment is changed here, the person they have maimed will not agree, and the man must be responsible for his choice, like me. Since they have been sentenced to death, they must be carried out in person, and it is impossible to take people's lives and desire not to be bloody!"

If it's a psionic group obtained for killing, Ed doesn't have to do that. In this war, he really has no shortage of targets to kill, not to mention that he can be captured with an engraving as long as he is nearby. It's just that he can't live with his own heart.

The execution process was simple, the person was taken to the edge of a dug pit. Ed slashed it directly, cleanly. The rest of the work will simply be buried, and a small number of the heads will be taken out and hung high up outside the village as a warning, and if it really can deter some ill-intentioned people from doing evil, it will be regarded as atonement for these people.

At the end of the trial, Ed took back the bloodied Germo and left, he had other things to deal with, and the deacon who had been newly assigned to him seemed to be a newcomer, and he was not careful enough in many places, and he was not worried about the affairs of the army and decided to check it.

However, when he arrived at the temporary command office, he found a messenger from Delia waiting for him, and the letter told him to return to the commander-in-chief's location immediately, and give him a new mission.

The army under his command will continue to follow the established route to the next human settlement to restore order in Roland, and there are countless other Roland armies on the left and right of this line, most of which are led by a knight, or directly by the backbone of the elite knight team under Ed's original command, and the entire Delia army is reduced to zero, like a fist divided into five fingers, marching together on the map, fully restoring normal life in the enemy-occupied area as quickly as possible.

After Ed found the young deacon, explained the important matters, and ordered the lieutenant of the team to take his place, he took only Chesterton, and the two returned to the core of the army with the courier.

After the three of them broke away from the large army, they could let go of their speed and gallop on the ground, even if they didn't need to speed up, the excellent war horse still quickly left the surrounding scenery behind, Ed opened the power of the star spirit to protect, turned the violent wind into a gentle breeze, and then used the spirit energy to make the war horse not lose speed on the premise of becoming as smooth as possible, just like that, ride comfortably on the horse and enjoy it, liberating his mood from the gloom just now.

Behind him, Chesterton was in a different style, fully retracting his psionic energy and letting the wind blow against him at high speed, indulging his wild side on the back of a bumpy horse.

It's been almost a month since Delia's mind intervened in this strong man, and Chesterton has gradually gained the latter's trust by following Eddard's side, his knowledge and ability have not changed, but the way he looks at things has become a blank slate, maybe it's the way he was single-minded about war before, Chesterton has never seen everything around him seriously, and he doesn't seem to want to leave waves in his heart.

Now that he has Ed as his backbone, he has gradually accepted his point of view, learning to accept and enjoy life, and although war still arouses his interest, it is not all he has.

In the base camp not far away, Di Liya was frowning at this time in front of a bunch of new news, all kinds of evidence showed that Ingier was said to have begun negotiations with the new king Charles, after all, the situation between the two sides had changed at this time, and the past strategy was no longer applicable, just dealing with this was already a headache for her, and another appointment notice on the table was even more difficult for her.

Appointed Knight Ed as Envoy of the Duchy of Burgundy!(To be continued......)
