Chapter 46 Court Trial

It’s true that there are things that can deceive those with the evil contract to discern spells, but there are things that can do tricks to deceive the discerning of spells under the supervision of six legendary professionals (there are also three in the royal family)...

That's probably not true.

Even if the Three Demon Gods of Hell disguise themselves as mortals, they cannot hope to get away with so many legendary professionals under the pressure of the plane.

So although they were full of doubts, Farah and others still did not raise any questions.

They wanted to see what other tricks this guy could play in the courtroom.

However, when Clark opened his mouth for the first time in the trial court, what he said once again shocked the entire Lugoin.

He claimed that "Fox-Headed Fox", "Iroha Mister" and "Oxhorn Clark" were all his nicknames!

This statement, which was almost an insult to IQ, was of course unanimously refuted and scolded by everyone present.

However, when the scolding subsided, his words caused everyone in the court to fall into silence.

At that time, this barbarian professional with a sinewy face and scars all over his body raised his chin arrogantly, looked around at everyone in the auditorium, and then said in an extremely indifferent and disdainful tone: "From beginning to end, I have shown up for you.

I am the only one in front of me. The so-called 'Fox Head' and 'Colorful Feather' are said to exist, but who of you can prove it?"

As soon as the words fell, the entire court fell silent. A few minutes later, the entire auditorium erupted in uproar, almost overturning the Arab-style circular ceiling of the court.

The judge almost broke his gavel before he managed to silence the courtroom again.

His words hit the weakness of the other three major forces. They had indeed never seen the so-called "Fox-headed Fox" and "Iroha Mist".

They learned that all the evidence for the existence of these two people only came from the titles in some letters. There was no actual evidence to prove that these two people were real living people.

And since they couldn't prove the real existence of these two people, how could they explain the letter.

The teaching text clearly written on the secret letter, after being deciphered by Farah and Drognan, is indeed the two names "Fox-headed Fox" and "Iroha Mist", right?

However, Clark's defense for this letter was quite understated: "I was just a little curious about Zakarum's teachings, so I just made up a random letter for myself. What? Did I write a letter to myself?

Is it also illegal?"

Faced with Clark's sophistry, Jehain almost exploded with anger, but he could not refute the other party's remarks because he could not prove that "Fox-Headed Fox" and "Iroha Mist" were real.

At the end of the trial, the king's face almost turned the color of pig liver, and his hands almost broke the gold cufflinks on his sleeves.

However, the king's anger was of no help to the trial, and even the three guardians suddenly realized that their understanding of this organization that rose almost overnight was so superficial.

The trial ended with the judge ruling that Clark was guilty of "the crime of "unauthorized use and learning of words". Clark was eventually sentenced to 300 lashes and a fine of 4,000 gold coins.

...

Under normal circumstances, no matter how open Lu Gaoyin's atmosphere is and how sound the legal system is, if you dare to confront the king like this, you will not end well.

But Clark walked into the Hall of Justice and surrendered in front of everyone, and he was the "sole" leader of another big force in the city.

Under such circumstances, even an arrogant Jie Hain would not dare to act recklessly unless he wanted a riot to occur in the harbor area, and a riot that was generally sympathized by residents of other areas of the city.

Therefore, after Clark was whipped and paid the fine in full, he walked out from the front door of the Hall of Justice.

Well... I walked out under the complicated looks of the three guardians and the hateful look of King Jehain.

Since then, both the royal family and the three guardians have begun to increase their information and intelligence collection efforts on this emerging organization. However, despite repeated collections, they have been unable to collect more complete intelligence.

They could only convince themselves that there were indeed two other leaders in this organization, because all the written communications they could obtain showed that there were three people with different personalities giving orders to other members of the organization.

However, they still don't have any other evidence to support this conclusion...

...

"Huh..." Farah took a breath, picked up the tea cup on the table and took a sip. Looking at Xue Hua opposite who was still digesting the information, she couldn't help but turn her head and look at Kane.

The current situation in Lu Gaoyin is so complicated that it really makes people feel chilly.

There are desert mercenaries who fully support the royal family and the People's Defense Front who have been hiding in the dark. Even the number of leaders can only be guessed.

There are also evil syndicates hidden in the city, and even cultists who are rumored to have been having an affair with the People's Protection Front.

All of this was just a frozen explosive potion before, but now, the information about Tarasha's Tomb and the appearance of the King's Staff are like a fierce burning fire, starting to rapidly burn this powerful potion.

thaw.

I don’t know how many eyes were staring at this huge cake, both openly and secretly.

And everyone wants to enjoy it alone.

As guardians, what they can do is to solve this matter in the shortest possible time, find Tal Rasha's ancient tomb, and declare ownership of the ancient tomb in the name of the Council.

And if they want to do this, the only person they can rely on now is the young man in front of them.

After being promised huge profits by Jie Hein, it is almost impossible for other professionals to provide them with any clues. The only one who can make a turn in this deadlock is Xue Hua.

Just when the carriage fell into silence, the coachman's voice came from the front.

"Master, we are here."

"Oh, okay, let's go down. It's quiet enough here, and it's far away from the mage. There shouldn't be any monitors."

Farah nodded, opened the car door first, and walked out.

"Do you just believe in that 'Fox Head'? Farah?" Kane followed him, supported by Sothea, and slowly got out of the car, asking as he walked.

"I'd rather believe it or not. In this current situation, tsk tsk..." Farah shook his head, with a helpless expression on his face.

Xue Hua also got out of the car after Sosia. He was still thinking about some issues about the organization. As soon as he got out of the car, he found himself standing in front of a three-story giant "wooden" building.

This made him open his mouth in surprise.

You know, in the desert, wood is a very rare resource!

Most people would be reluctant to use it to build a house, let alone a three-story tavern!

What kind of tavern is this? Is it the private property of a member of the royal family?

Or is it a gathering place purchased by a big businessman?

"Haha! Don't open your mouth so wide, Xue, the owner of this tavern is a timber merchant who travels by sea and land via the Kurast route. This guy made a lot of money in his early years. After returning from his last sea trip,

He purposely left a boatload of lumber to build this tavern for his wife..."

"Hey...it's just a pity that this owner is also a miserable person. Less than a month after the tavern was built, countless monsters appeared in Lu Gaoyin's sewers. The owner of this tavern is not like them.

The sons of the captain of the city guard died one after another at the mouth of monsters, leaving only the proprietress, living a lonely life guarding this tavern..."

Farah took the lead and walked in front, while turning back to explain to Xue Hua, who was still in shock, but at the end, his tone was inevitably a bit sad.

So that’s it, this is really unlucky...

Xue Hua also sighed and shook his head.

But then, his expression suddenly froze.

etc!

Why does this plot sound so familiar?

Farah just said, what is the name of the proprietress of this tavern?

Atma?
