Chapter 61: Life and Death
Age-Robert was unconvinced. At least he was also an important figure in the Imperial Army. How can you be inferior to a blacksmith?
But he saw His Majesty stretching: "It's finally over." This year's assessment is much more interesting than in previous years. ”
What does that mean? You know, in recent years, except for the perverted female mage of the Slime family, the champions of other evaluations are basically young people from the Robert family, which seems really boring.
Obviously, His Majesty doesn't seem to want to see the Robert family continue to be in the spotlight.
Hearing His Majesty's words, Edge-Robert could only give up and did not want to continue to get involved in this matter.
Stark looked at the five archmages on the referee's stand and asked, "I wonder who is the champion this time?" ”
Gandalf pondered for a moment and said, "It should be Ace, Arak and Leon, but ......"
Before Gandalf could finish speaking, Bebe next to him said, "That kid named Ace uses dark magic. I guess no one can argue with this? ”
Seeing that everyone was unresponsive, Bebe continued, "The Empire banned dark magic more than a decade ago, but today Ace used it again and eventually won the championship. But he used the Dark Demon, which was supposed to be against the laws of the Empire. So I don't think this championship counts. ”
As soon as this sentence came out, the whole process was chaotic, and all the audience began to discuss fiercely, followed by a shout.
"If the winner is not the champion, should we give the champion to the loser?"
"Anyway, Ace is the last to fall, and the champion should be him!"
"Dark magic from the demons of the abyss? Why doesn't Ace look like a demon? He's a powerful commander! ”
"If the empire is unwilling to recognize the power of the strong, it is simply ridiculous and pathetic!"
For a while, there was a lot of noise. Many people even started throwing garbage at the venue, and the scene was completely out of control in an instant!
They won't endorse Goblin Klin, so even if someone says he's really a demon, they'll probably choose to believe him. But for Ace, they just got to see all of his performances. He is a qualified commander, a qualified leader. In this empire that respects ability and strength, there is no one who does not like heroes. Except for those pedantic and arrogant aristocrats.
Seeing that this scene could not end, Bebe looked at Gandalf on the side. After all, he is the vice president of the academy, and this evaluation should be decided by him.
Gandalf didn't dare to speak out. After all, His Majesty is still on the scene. He immediately turned around and looked at the king: "Your Majesty, what do you want to do with this matter?" ”
The king coughed and said, "Don't ask me, you decide for yourself." However, if the championship is given to a loser. I guess it's going to be a joke. ”
Gandalf could only smile bitterly and thought to himself: Your Majesty, aren't you clearly going to give the championship to Ace? Finally, you want me to announce the results? Isn't it just that I have to take all the responsibility alone?
Just when Gandalf was still at a loss, another voice came from the distinguished auditorium: "The laws of the empire are inviolable, and anyone who violates them should be punished." ”
For a time, many nobles echoed, which took the "crazy" Sri Lanka by surprise. His crimes are still in the hands of Parker Veitch. If the other party wants to be his enemy, he will die a terrible death!
Sri Lanka couldn't help but look at the audience not far away, but Parker was also smiling at him, holding the reel of the radio tightly in his hand. He couldn't help but shudder, then quickly withdrew his eyes.
At this time, Arak, who had woken up, stood up and said to Daniel, "Mr. Vice Dean, you promised me before I signed up. No matter what Ace does in the assessment, unless he kills someone, you'll make sure he's safe! Now Ace didn't kill anyone, he just used dark magic, so I hope you can do as promised! ”
The king squinted. "Is there such a thing?"
Gandalf's face darkened: "Uh, in order to get Arak to sign up for the assessment, I agreed to Arak's request. ”
When the king heard this, he slowly stood up and said, "Since you have agreed, I will leave the matter to you." As for the results of the treatment, you go and explain it to the archbishop yourself, and I will go back first. ”
With that, the king walked slowly towards the exit, followed by a group of guards.
When the old king was about to leave the training ground, he couldn't help but look back at the field where countless heroes had been born. He couldn't help but sigh: this was supposed to be the last time he would come to this place. This last college evaluation was a bit of fun.
Thinking of this, a warm smile appeared on the old king's face, and then disappeared from everyone's sight.
Seeing the old king leave, Gandalf felt even more pain. His Majesty left in style, but how should he deal with it?
At this time, someone among the nobles said, "Mr. Vice President, dark magic was defined as evil magic more than ten years ago. It is a force from the abyss. The laws of the empire also clearly state that those who use dark magic are sentenced to death! I don't think Mr. Vice Dean doesn't know, right? ”
Gandalf's face changed, and he didn't know what to do for a while.
After thinking for a long time, he finally seemed to have made up his mind: "The laws of the empire are made by the citizens of the empire, so I would like to ask the citizens of the empire." If you agree to sentence Ace to death, stand up. Gandalf's words about citizens naturally included all the nobles present.
For a moment, the nobles of the aristocratic district slowly stood up and looked at the commoners arrogantly.
"Okay, please take a seat. So, those who agreed to exonerate Ace from the death penalty and award the champions of this evaluation to Ace, Arak and Leon, please stand! ”
With a "bang", all the civilians in the ordinary viewing area stood up, and no one chose to remain silent at this moment!
Gandalf pressed his hand down and made a gesture to sit down.
Obviously, in terms of numbers, those who support Dylan have an absolute advantage.
"Oops, what's the use of so many people? You know, the laws of the empire have clear provisions. A statement of a nobleman can be equal to a hundred commoners. There were more than a hundred nobles present, but only ten thousand commoners. Therefore, the fate of this 'demon' cannot be changed, and only death awaits him! A nobleman said coldly.
"It's true......" Gandalf was a little embarrassed.
But at this moment, in the most special area next to the aristocratic viewing area, a man suddenly stood up, this was a soldier in black armor, his face was completely covered with armor.
And after him, second, third......
In just half a minute, in the dark viewing area, at least fifty military officers stood up.
When these military personnel, who were full of murderous spirit, stood up, no one dared to raise objections.
All of them speak the same word.
"I don't agree with the death penalty!"
