Chapter 161: A Wave of Unsettled 4
Military law, which had not been really enforced for a hundred years, was now removed from the pile of old papers, and the knight was to be punished for killing his own soldiers according to the old law.
Ed was surprised in his heart, but he didn't expect that what he said casually last night seemed to be true, and Delia really wanted to punish these people, and wanted to persuade him to remember the advice of his previous companion and not to get involved.
The faces of the knights who were accused were pale, and they would never have thought that they would be pointed out in public, and someone would bring them to justice.
Even Howard had almost never heard of Roland having such a regulation, but since the commander had taken it out, it could never be fake, "My lord, this ......"
Delia stopped him from pleading for mercy and continued: "We all know the cause and process of the incident, and if it is dealt with strictly, it will be biased, so let's deal with it as a minor crime!
The focus of the audience shifted to a few knights, and the ordinary warriors who were listening outside the arena were even more concerned, killing them did not believe that the knights who were high in the past would be corporal punishment for the lives of civilians like themselves, and they had to admit their mistakes in public, would they agree to such an embarrassing humiliation?
There were no seats, but they didn't feel tired at all, and some of them stood far away and wanted to jump up to see the expressions of those knights at this time, but no one dared to really do this, and in front of the majestic commander, everyone didn't dare to make a sound at all.
"Your Excellency, I, plead guilty. ”
"No, you can't insult me for these damn scum!"
In the face of the pressure, there were completely different voices, and most of the knights looked at Di Lia for a while, defeated, and bowed their heads to admit their mistakes. But there were still one or two newly joined knights who were stubborn, and craned their necks and shouted.
"What are you? Don't think you'll be able to ride on the head of our psionics by winning a few battles, you don't know what kind of magic you used to win the Crown Prince's trust. You witch!"
The faces of the people in the hall turned pale, except for the knights who did not know whether they were alive or dead, no one dared to make a sound, and the huge place seemed to have become a dead and silent tomb, and after a while, the people in the room had shouted enough, and their voices fell unconsciously.
"No, you can't do that anyway!"
"No, I can!" Deria withdrew the hand that was holding her forehead, lifted the oak staff that had been placed aside, lifted it slightly, and slammed it on the ground.
"Boom!"
Accompanied by a dull tapping sound. The invisible energy shockwave emanated, and the knights who bore the brunt of it were immediately shocked and fell to the ground.
Ed's sense, the power of the star spirit surged out from Di Lia's body, quickly passing through the air and condensing white crystals in front of and behind the two knights who were not dead and wanted to use their psionic powers, and in less than a breath, they turned into a solid cage and trapped them inside.
Then Di Liya's words reached everyone's ears, "I am the commander of the first army, and the crown prince has given me all the decision-making power in wartime." There are documents stamped with the royal seal as proof, and the knights who rebel and do not obey the orders can be directly executed, and you dare to be presumptuous?"
It was not in vain that Di Lia went back to meet the crown prince once before, and she relied on her superior influence. Having obtained almost all the power that a commander can obtain, there is not the slightest criticism in the general righteousness.
"What?"
I heard that the knight was going to be executed, and he was charged with rebellion. Howard was horrified and wanted to stand up and question. only to find that he couldn't move for half a minute, and his surroundings were completely filled with the power oppression of this female commander. Even if it doesn't condense and form, it's still stressful.
And the two knights who were frozen in it by the power of the star spirit had no way to argue at all, their physical movement was restricted, and their own spiritual energy rushed left and right in it, and it was still useless after hitting it for a long time, and the crystal wall condensed by the power of the star spirit was intact and not a single mark was left.
"Your Excellency Howard, send someone to escort them down first, don't get in the way here, we will deal with the charges of the two of them later, now we have to do the matter of the knight killing the Roland warrior!"
Delia had enough, and the power of the star spirit that was emitted from the body was withdrawn again, and now all the people in the hall regained their mobility, and she did not make a decision on the punishment of the two knights on the spot, which was equivalent to giving everyone a chance to relax, Howard did not dare to make a mistake, suppressed the dissatisfaction in his heart, and hurriedly lifted the trapped knight and sent it down.
Having established their majesty, the remaining psionic knights waited in horror for the impending punishment, nodding their heads in approval of the crimes pointed out by Delia, and obediently apologizing to the ordinary warriors behind them.
"Wow, the knights really apologized?"
"Ha! They also have today, and they are still the saints and goddesses, and we are not with the wrong person!"
Everyone was boiling, they were gossiping, trying their best to lower their voices and discussing this incredible scene with each other, all of this really broke the previous cognition, and the psionic knights also bowed their heads to ordinary people?
They couldn't believe all this, on the contrary, it seemed that the arrogant posture of the two knights before was the one that should have happened, and it seemed that in the face of stronger rights than knights, their true faces were also revealed, there was no such thing as nobility and inviolability, knights were human beings by nature, and they would be afraid to give in.
The impact of these knights' confessions was far greater than their actions themselves, and to a certain extent, they shattered the old image of the entire knightly class as supreme and inviolable.
The defeat of the knight of Ingier to the ordinary people on the battlefield reflects the subversion of the power of the subversion, and at this moment the knight apologizes for the mistakes he caused to the ordinary people is a brilliant victory of human nature, since then the knight's extraordinary status in the hearts of the general public began to shake, perhaps this is the deep meaning of Deliya's move.
Ed silently observed, thinking, he found that he was far from fully understanding his companion, in terms of strength, the other party was like an abyss, in thought, the other party still saw farther than himself, thought deeper than himself.
"Do you want to teach me these things?" Ed guessed as he meant it.
"Since the rest of them have sincerely confessed their guilt, then things will be easy to do, come and prepare to be executed. Delia nodded expressionlessly, not delving into the lingering buzz in the hall.
The retinue moved out of a clearing, and a executioner with a long whip stepped forward to stand by.
Several knights were like ashes, they couldn't imagine that they would really be enforced in public, a huge sense of humiliation hit their hearts, they looked at each other, and looked at Knight Howard for help, but the warning of disobedience just happened in front of them, who dares to offend this adult's mold again?
