Dawn of the Grey Tower

Chapter 58: Trial

According to the tradition of Cangshi Kingdom, a fair and formal trial must meet the following provisions.

First, the trial must be public. Anyone, regardless of his identity and race, is eligible to watch the trial, and the viewer is eligible to question the trial judge ’s statement during the trial, although this does not force the trial judge. Changing his verdict makes it more impossible to interrupt the trial, but this rule means that once the judge makes a trial that is obviously contrary to common sense, his reputation and ability will be greatly questioned.

Second, the presiding officer of the trial must be the highest noble or leader of the current territory. The royal family cannot shirk the responsibility of presiding over the trial under any pretext and reason, but if the royal family present cannot ensure the justice of a trial because of personality or other issues Sex can also be handed over to the second-ranking nobleman to preside over the trial if it is affirmed.

"Third, if the death sentence is pronounced during the trial, the judge must execute the death sentence as an executor, to show that he is responsible for the outcome of this trial. And he must give his gods and his family name to the gods before execution. Swear, if the result of the trial is wrong, then the soul of the deceased can be allowed to return to revenge. "On the way to the place of trial, the cheese explained to Elsa the rules of the trial they were about to face.

"It sounds quite fair, so it was Gregorian who presided over our trial?" The proprietress nodded and said.

"No, the highest title here is the Earl of Montenegro, so the host is Lothar." Lyon, who was at the forefront, turned back and said.

This trial came later than the mage expected. The reason for this is that the cavalier said that Gregory needed more time to "collect" their evidence. When he said this, the blood lion's lips sneered, as if mocking the other's incompetence. But in any case, this is a good thing for the cheese, which means that Lyon has more time to rest, after enough sleep, although hunger makes the hands and feet of the three people a little weak, but at least they can stay awake .

"In this way, it is possible that the Gregory could not persuade the Earl of Montenegro to sentence us to death?" Elsa said, although the cheese promised that he had a way to escape the other two on the execution ground But that also means that they formally broke away from the kingdom's forces. At that time, let alone get the resources to configure the antidote, I am afraid that it is impossible to leave the Earl of Saron.

"I advise you not to have too many expectations. Gregory may not be the best warrior, but he is indeed the most trustworthy person in the Kingdom Knights in terms of negotiation." Although he was betrayed by his subordinates, he was very angry, but Lyon did not bother to degrade his ability.

"Right, you haven't said why this Gregorian wants to kill you? What hatred did you have with him before?" If you can know the previous grudges between the two, maybe there is still room for recovery. And on the other hand, everyone is more or less curious about this fascination, and the Master is no exception. This question is actually asked by the cheese long ago, but there are too many things encountered after entering Zhuoliu Town, so he has never had the opportunity to ask the exit. Now the two sides are going to face the conflict directly. The cheese thinks it is better to ask as soon as possible. . Hearing the mage mentioned this topic, the boss immediately raised her ears.

"Disappointed you, there is no grudge between you and me that you expected. In fact, the reason he wants to get rid of me is very simple. I still remember that I mentioned the difference between us and the Hammer Knights in Valley City. Really? "Lyon shrugged and said.

"I remember you said it was because most of your origins came from civilians." The better memory cheese quickly replied.

"Yes, but what I said was not the whole situation. The Kingdom Knights, as the first legion of the Kingdom, of course will not be composed entirely of civilians, and the proportion of noble children in the Knights is actually not low. But compared to the Knights, which are almost noble like the Hammer, this is already a very valuable thing. As for why Gregory is dissatisfied with me as a knight of the Second Legion, it is actually very simple, because my origin is Civilian. "After saying this, the expression on Lyon ’s face was very complicated. In the view of the knight, it was a very disgraceful thing to cause factions and even frame each other just because of his background, let alone tell the cheese They outsiders.

"So Gregory is a nobleman, and he hopes to become the second legion chief after killing you? This is not difficult to understand. I'm just curious about how you became a knight chief, after all, even if you say it is fair, the legion Is the internal promotion also an advantage for the nobles? "The mage asked curiously.

"Ha, this means that our great knight is long. He is the core and soul of the entire Knights of the Kingdom. Although he is a noble, he treats all the knights equally, and I walked all the way under his recommendation. This is the position. Gregory now dares to blatantly mutiny. In fact, a large part of the reason is also because the big knight is not currently in the kingdom. "When referring to the big knight, Lyon ’s face showed respect and Worshiping expression. This makes the cheese curious, what kind of person can make Lyon, who has the name of the blood lion, admire so much.

But he didn't wait for further questions. After turning the last corner, the place to try them had arrived. As a border town, Zhuoliu Town naturally does not have a building like a referee ~ www.ltnovel.com ~ So the venue of this trial was set on the town square of Zhuoliu Town. This also satisfies the public part of the trial tradition. It's just that there are still many people who are not soldiers in Zhuoliu Town. The order-keeping soldiers used their bodies to draw a circular area in the square. In the area that will be used as a trial, in addition to Losa, the host, and Gregory, and a few guards, There are no facilities such as chairs or tables in the square. If you insist on it, the solitary pile standing on the square is so conspicuous that people have to doubt its purpose.

Then they were escorted to the center of the circular area under such circumstances, and knelt on one knee in front of Lothar under the strong pressure of the knight standing behind them to show obedience to the trial. Seeing the blood lion forced to kneel on the ground, the sneer that Gregory had on his face became more obvious. This also allowed the Cavaliers to bow their heads and look at the floor in front of them after disdainful humming to avoid the ugly face of each other.

Seeing the preparation and completion, Lothar wore his armor that could not open the eyes of the flashing man, leaned his hands on the knight sword, cleared his throat and said.

"I, Lothar Montenegro swore in the name of the Montenegrin family that he will justly preside over this trial. Now, Lyon, the Knight of the Second Legion of the Kingdom Knights, and unknown wizards and northerners around you. You are charged Escape from the area without permission, attack the Kingdom soldiers and set fire to the pharmacist ’s station. Do you have anything to say? "

Just as Lyon planned to defend himself, a panicked soldier ran from the far side of the square, with a yellow-brown stain on his body, which looked like the color of mud and blood mixed together. The soldier shouted as he ran.

"Monster! There are monsters! Monsters are attacking us!"
