Augustus looked at the golden-robed arbitrator who had just passed by him, and noticed that the other person was lowering his hood and walking towards the seats of the Supreme Council members in the arbitrator's court.
Just a quick glance made Augustus feel horrified. At that moment, he seemed to hear a cold ridicule.
"One of the many elders in the Supreme Council." Taldarin's words directly reflected Augustus's heart: "They are long-standing elders, extremely wise, and abide by Kara's system and the laws that maintain order.
Law."
"The Arbiters are responsible for guiding the countless people of the Protoss Empire. Their decisions are related to the fate of the Empire, so their thoughts are not known... The duty of the Templars is to defend the Empire and the Empire on the battlefield.
People, we don’t need to care about politics, we don’t need to understand the vision and game behind the orders of the Supreme Council.”
"The order comes from the Supreme Council rather than any of the arbitrators. Therefore, we know very little about each arbitrator." These words that reached the stars were instantly displayed in Augustus' mind.
, can be understood instantly.
"Despite this, I shouldn't know anything about an arbitrator who can sit here today. Gods, I don't even know his name or tribe at all." Tal'darin said.
"He must be an elder who has already held a high position in the Supreme Council, because those complicated and gorgeous costumes and patterns only belong to those long-lived law enforcement classes."
"In other words, you don't know his position, position or even name at all?" Augustus immediately became more vigilant.
In the Parliament of the Tyranid Federation, members always need to declare their political opinions through parade speeches or even purchase large LED and holographic screen advertisements in Tarsonis City, so that potential voters will not forget that there are still people in the Federation Parliament.
There is such a number one person.
But in the Protoss Empire, members of the Supreme Council do not always have to show up to declare their existence. The Arbitrator's understanding of the psychic network Kara is so deep that as long as they want to reveal their thoughts, the people in the spiritual sea will
The soul can shine like a beacon in the darkness.
"Some Arbiters have been sitting behind the scenes for a long time. They may have been elders in the Council before the protoss of Sagulath were exiled." Executor Moyo said: "It is not surprising to feel strange to them, but
, this is absolutely against common sense.”
"Even if the arbitrator never expressed his thoughts in the kara, he should have presided over ceremonies and funerals, bathing the deceased." Urland said: "I always avoid contact with the arbitrators,
Compared to the Templars and Karai, they tend to hide their thoughts and refuse to express their thoughts."
"There will be no lies or deception in Kara. This is the oath the Supreme Council made the Templars swear - but they themselves have violated it."
"This guy is so perceptive. I thought I saw him smiling just now. Damn it, he is a protoss." Renault has always been very accurate in seeing people, and he can always get to the point when he sees protoss: "I will keep an eye on him.
.”
"He also gave me a bad feeling...but I couldn't tell." Kerrigan guarded Augustus like a professional agent and bodyguard, determined to protect Augustus even if he gave up his own life.
She would not let this man be harmed in the slightest. Putting aside her emotional dependence, Kerrigan firmly believed that if the world lost Augustus, it would completely lose hope.
"...Jimmy, you are right, we should keep an eye on him." This is why Augustus always brought Renault instead of Tychus to such occasions.
He is a bold and careful person, but at this time, Renault would not wander around thinking about making a fortune or fishing.
Augustus then turned to look at the back of the golden-robed arbiter and noticed that he was slowly walking further and further away with a hunched back and a staggering posture. He looked like an ordinary star.
Spiritual elder.
While Augustus was watching him, the arbitrator almost fell down on the smooth light bridge. Fortunately, two tall parliamentary guards held him up and prevented him from falling.
Even if the life span of protoss is much longer than that of humans, they will still inevitably enter the aging period. Those protoss that are too old will show signs of weakened strength and cracked skin, regardless of what they were in their youth.
Such a vigorous warrior, even after reaching old age, he is no different from other creatures.
"Well, maybe we shouldn't doubt a poor old man like this." Renault shook his head, daring to be disappointed.
“Don’t let yourselves be fooled by appearances and illusions,” Augustus reminded Reno: “Our enemies lurk in the shadows.”
Augustus walked through a cloister bridge made of golden metal, stepping on carpets with silver lines and sound-absorbing red sponge limbs that did not look diabolical at all, under the gaze of the red-robed Yara Council guards on both sides.
Step into the huge courtroom seats.
This is a bridge far away from the ground. Below is the intertwined light bridge. Surrounded by tower walls thousands of feet high, there are sculptures of arbitrators and sages and statues on them. Countless hexagonal niches are decorated with blue
Kedarin crystal, a crystal world dotted with jewels.
After crossing the steps carved with spiral patterns, Augustus came to a luxurious chair inlaid with crystals and gems on the left side of Tassadar and sat down. Raynor and Kerrigan found several people behind it.
There were smaller seats, and Taldarin and other Protoss Archons and Executives also sat down one by one.
"Augustus, we all agree that based on the achievements of the human revolutionary army under your leadership in Aiur and the heroic sacrifices that must be praised, you should be qualified to attend the Parliament." Tassadar looked at Austria.
Gustus said.
Executor Artanis was sitting on the seat to the left of Augustus. When he saw Augustus, he immediately bowed his head and signaled. Although as the youngest executive in the history of the Protoss Empire, Artanis was already protecting many of Aiur's
He proved his ability to lead the Templars during the battle, and he still behaved like a student who bowed his head and listened to the church when he was around Tassadar.
"You are setting me on the fire, Tassadar." Augustus said with a smile. He could understand Tassadar's intention, that is, humans should die for their sacrifices in Aiur.
Gain the respect of the protoss and let more protoss understand that humans are more than just a backward, inferior race.
"The Supreme Council actually allowed you to let me be honored in this elegant hall." He said: "To be honest, along the way, I was worried that the followers of the Supreme Council would assassinate me."
"That is not the behavior of an upright Templar." Tassadar responded: "And they have no reason to do that. The protoss respect the brave and heroes."
Gu Duo
"That is also not what the Dark Templar did." The voice of Dark Hierophant Zeratul came slowly. He followed two Protoss warriors wearing heavy armor and helmets and walked in, warning the latter
Under the glare, he sat down on the seat next to Augustus.
"Zeratu, where have you been since the last time you brought news about the Dark Templar Orega?" Augustus, Tassadar and others looked at the same time and stretched their arms to prove that they were not carrying any weapons.
of Zeratul.
"I returned to the Dark Templars who followed me and asked them to arrest the traitors who attacked the Templars using the ancient skills that Adon taught our family." Zeratul stopped in front of a luxurious chair,
Augustus saw in him for the first time the haggardness of mental trauma.
"After that, I felt really confused. Orega was completely acting from the standpoint of the Sagras Nerazim clan and the Templars. So, what position and identity should I use to pronounce the verdict?
Are Orega and the Dark Templar who follow him guilty?" Zeratul let out a deep spiritual sigh, and everyone could feel the inner conflict and sadness of the elder Sagulath.
"The sad memory of the Supreme Council's expulsion of the Nerazim ancestors is still affecting our people, and it is inevitable that it will gradually evolve into unforgettable hatred. When Orega and I were still brothers, he once said to
I mentioned his grand vision of reviving the Nerazim, but never imagined that it would be realized in such a way."
"Now it seems that Orega and you have some similarities. You are both willing to dedicate yourself to your people."
"I have seen Orega." Augustus just smiled and shook his head: "I only saw an extreme racist, but I am different. I just want to rebuild the human order instead of killing all Tasan.
Nice people.”
"You must not waver. Indiscriminate killing is a capital crime." Executor Moyo said to Zeratul: "If you can kill a thousand people without guilt based on hatred alone, then the order of the Protoss Empire has long ago collapsed."
"You actually use the laws of the Protoss Empire to judge a Dark Templar from Sagulath?" Tassadar disagreed with Moyo's statement: "With the love of brothers and kindred spirits, how can Zeratul do it?
Sentencing the Dark Templar."
"No, Orega has gone too far away from the desire of the matriarch when she led the tribe to establish a home in Sagulas." Zeratul said: "We just want to break away from the restrained Kara's personality and gain independence and freedom, but we are absolutely unable to do so."
You shouldn’t hurt others and kill others for this reason.”
As Zeratul spoke, his eyes remained on the few Dark Templar warriors imprisoned by the stasis field in the center of the court. They were the ones who were personally arrested by Zeratul and the Shadow Guard sent by the matriarch.
The evidence of the crime is there.
These Dark Templar warriors are the youngest generation of the protoss of Sagurath. They have never been to Aiur. When they were born, they only saw the eternal twilight of Sagurath, and the alternation of day and night.
The flashing stars and the bright moon show my love for my hometown and people far more than a hometown that is only mentioned often.
They were all influenced by the ideas promoted by Orega, and believed that they must avenge the Templars and eradicate Kala in order for Saguras and his people to gain eternal peace. That was the reason why the ancestors of Saguras had been killed
The vengeance of the Templar persecution and humiliating expulsion to the Xel'Naga transport ship and exile to the icy deep space was also for Sagulath to get rid of the influence of the Protoss Empire and adhere to his own traditions.
Apart from Orega's extreme vendetta, he can be called a hero on the side of the protoss of Sagulath.
These Dark Templars imprisoned here are also members of the Nerazim breakaway faction. They chose to follow Ulreja's ideals to the end of the star sea. They are a group known as the Fist of Ulrezaj (the Fist of Ulrezaj).
A member of the Dark Templar Order.
For those Dark Templar warriors who practice by going deep into the void, the closer their extreme thoughts are to death, the more powerful they can gain.
This is also the reason why the ruler of the protoss of Sarcoras sealed away the knowledge of merging into the Dark Archon and explicitly prohibited the Dark Templar from doing so, because even if they knew they would die, the Dark Templar could not overcome becoming the Dark Archon.
Official and face the temptation of death.
Extreme and forbidden knowledge makes some Dark Templars extremely powerful, but it also makes them more likely to go astray.
"I am Aldaris, the arbiter of the Protoss Empire, the voice of the Supreme Council for justice and peace." At this time, another person in the court seat, Aldar, was wearing a blue arbiter robe.
Reese stood up, holding a leather scroll tied with silk fabric in his hand, and read:
"The way of Kara is related to the survival of the entire protoss. It is the cornerstone of the survival and development of this race and the universe. No protoss, arbiter, templar or Karai can abandon it. In Kara, the shape is like a day.
When strength appears and the mind becomes one, wisdom appears. Any heresy of other faiths will bring about the disaster of destroying the entire race, and its despicable behavior is tantamount to betrayal and subversion..."
Aldaris took the trouble to read out the text, and continued to preach the wise words left by Kass and the arbitrators of the ancient Protoss Empire in accordance with the rules of the Arbitration Court.
Added Dawu teachings.
"What you said is not wrong. Kara is indeed related to the survival of the stars." Augustus listened carefully to Aldaris reading the words on the scroll, but his eyes were searching for the golden man in the arbiter's council seat.
The figure of the arbitrator in robes. Augustus just found some sense of déjà vu in him, and he was sure that he must have seen him somewhere.
Sure enough, the arbiter was sitting on a seat a little far away from Aldaris, his entire face hidden in the shadow of the hood, and only a pair of eyes emitting mixed yellow flames caught the eye.
That is definitely not an old star spirit old man.
"Do you know that arbitrator?" Augustus asked Artanis next to him.
"Of course, my friend." Artanis immediately looked in the direction Augustus knew, turned around and looked: "Let me be healthy."
"I don't know." He immediately said with those frank and sincere eyes that Augustus couldn't say any words of blame.
"..." Before Augustus could say anything else, the elder arbiter in a golden robe stood up after Aldaris' words stopped.
"The time has come for the routine trial to put to death the remnants of these traitors and forsaken people." His voice was low and powerful.
"In the name of Kara, the existence of traitors has tarnished this sacred law firm and brought shame to the arbiter class."
