Chapter 1072 303. In the name of justice
The people’s anger needs to be vented.
Their fury would have been unleashed upon the destruction of the kingdom. But with the cooperation with Vitalig, the kingdom will atone for its sins and resist the rat people, and the people's anger has no way to vent.
So Agarwal was that outlet.
The execution of a legendary mage is enough to prove the determination of Liberty City, and it is also enough to release the pent-up emotions of the people.
Of course, it’s okay to say this is Annan’s excuse.
The thought of Agarwal being safe made him sick. Why should ordinary people have to bear the price, but a powerful man like Agarwal can be exempted from punishment?
Free City didn’t come, Agarwal is fine. Free City is here, and Agarwal is fine, so isn’t Free City’s visit in vain?
However, in order to avoid maximizing losses, Annan secretly asked the Skeleton King: "After killing Agarwal, can his body be converted into undead?"
"Convert the enemy into undead? This will be criticized as evil." The Skeleton King felt that Annan was a bit extreme.
"Evil? I think he deserved it. He made millions of people homeless and lost their homes, and even made me use a crystal!"
As a king in the past, the Skeleton King had to persuade Said: "Excessive use of evil power will make people wary of you."
"That's just a fool's view. Magic is just a tool, isn't it? What is evil is not a sword, but the use of it People. I have seen the kindest undead and the most evil angels."
Annan saw clearly that a tribe with no merits like the rat people could give birth to Maria, like Della. For the Skaven, the camp cannot explain anything.
If Annan had done this a few years ago, there might have been a paladin to do justice for heaven. But the gods have lost contact, and they still have too much to take care of themselves, and Annan himself is a follower of the Holy Grail Knight!
"If all monarchs thought like you, there wouldn't be many ridiculous wars..."
With some complexity and appreciation, the Skeleton King told Annan that even if he transforms, Agarwal will change from the legend. Fall, retain the power of the epic at most.
“What if you don’t want the soul?”
Annan also wanted to maximize his profits and left the legendary soul to Belludonna in exchange for benefits.
Even the Skeleton King silently recited what a blasphemy, indicating that the power of the mage lies in the soul. Without the soul, the body can only stand as a great mage.
"Okay, let's have one more epic."
Even the epic is a breakthrough from zero to one... From this point of view, Liberty City really lacks high-end combat power, which can push the kingdom all the way to Sunset Plain relies on each other, Tai Useless and Annan to make friends everywhere.
It’s just that I can’t mess with Big Belludona’s belly anymore.
This legendary banquet ended with heated discussion among the guests.
Many people asked Annan whether he would persuade Agarwal to surrender. Annan shook his head and said: "There are some scum that there is no need to win over. Tomorrow the Free City will put Agarwal on trial."
In order to prevent Agarwal's friends and minions from coming to rob the prison and increase hidden dangers, Annan directly announced that Agarwal would be executed tomorrow.
Vitalig had known Annan's plan for a long time, but the uninformed guests showed even more shock than when Agarwal attacked.
By the gods, Liberty City is going to execute a legend? !
Many guests who knew what Annan had experienced in the north were thoughtful. Most of the rest were in disbelief.
Whether it is true or not, we will know tomorrow.
With such a big thing happening in Liberty City, it's impossible for the new king not to know about it. Ever since Agarwal did not come back, they could no longer bury their heads in the sand like ostriches.
Although the ostrich will not do this.
With Agarwal's disastrous defeat still before our eyes, it is meaningless to accuse him of being reckless. The nobles looked at themselves and found that even their apparent advantages were gone: the new king only had three legends left.
And Liberty City also has one of its biggest advantages: Vitalig.
The second prince who was stolen from the throne by Crowe was resurrected by the Council Chairman at the cost of his life, and also cooperated with Liberty City.
Even the orthodox bloodline of the royal family has rebelled, so what reason do they have to stay on this broken ship that is about to sink?
For a time, there were only two voices left in the new royal capital: the voice of surrendering the Free Blade and the voice of supporting Vitalig. But is it too late to rebel now?
When the nobles of the new royal capital were worrying about gains and losses, Annan, the biggest winner, came to the temporary dungeon - the current diameter of the Liberty City was only 1,250 meters, and the surrounding factories, prisons, and camps were all left behind. In Gem Bay.
"Agarwal, you should have a lot of wealth, right? Where are they?"
Agarwal's magic ring was pulled off, but the ring contained magic, and Annan took it to Dean Blehim to decipher it.
“You will let me go if you tell me?” Agarwal, who was wrapped in magic runes and sealed by the Skeleton King with a rune pillar, raised his head.
"No." Annan said simply.
"Then why should I say that?"
"You're right." Annan turned and left without any hesitation.
As soon as he came out of the dungeon, he ran to the Skeleton King and asked it: "Do the transformed undead retain the memories of their lives?"
"They will lose some 'irrelevant' things..."
The soul fire in the Skeleton King's eyes flashed, revealing a touch of humanity.
Annan noticed: "Not important?"
"It is about the feelings of family, friendship and love... Even if I recall it, I am just reading a book that has nothing to do with me. ”
"Does it include hatred?"
Annan is worried that Agarwal, who has become an undead, still remembers what happened in his life.
"Including hatred, and the dead is restricted and can only obey its master.
Annan was relieved now.
He thought of something else before leaving: "Wei Is this the case with Tallig as well? ”
"He is in another situation."
......
This day in the Sunset Plain is long. Countless people are staring at the floating city in the sky.
At dawn, Liberty City woke up slowly after sleeping all night. After eating a tasteless breakfast, she put on her coat and hurried to the crowded square in front of the city lord's palace.
Tens of thousands of people are standing here, but the scene is so quiet that even coughing can be heard.
People saw the arrogant Agarwal, no different from an ordinary old man, being escorted to the gallows.
The magical runes flickering around him draw away his magic at every turn, weakening him and ensuring that he hangs like a normal human being.
Annan appeared on the terrace of the city lord's palace, and his voice was followed by the amplification technique and spread throughout the city:
"The legendary mage Agarwal sat back and watched the rat men move north, abandoning the mage tower, causing the breeze to The city and the Snow Mountain Fortress were lost, and the northern territory fell. According to the code of the Free City...he was hanged!"
Agarwal suddenly raised his head.
The current ordinary executioner and the future legendary executioner took a deep breath and cut the hemp rope.
The trap under Agarwal's feet suddenly opened, and the legendary mage fell suddenly with the surprise.
Annan stared at the taut hemp rope and breathed out softly: "In the name of justice..."
The legendary mage Agarwal fell in Liberty City.
