A strange world

Chapter 971 Section 202. Judgment

The Guards who were still resisting suddenly fell into chaos. Francois took the opportunity to shout: "Your prince has escaped. Surrender without killing him!"

Even if they are loyal enough and come from a knight family or a mage family, they are still confused by this scene and sit back and watch the mages chase them out of Xing'er City.

The soldiers of the kingdom who could have caused some trouble to Xing'er City completely lost their will because of the general's escape.

Francois lowered his head and said to the complicated-looking knights gathered at the city wall: "Surrender, your enemies should be ratmen and demons."

"The prince is a coward, but we will never betray the kingdom!" shouted a knight.

Francois ignored the knight and threw down a document.

"This is the target that the McKeon Ratmen will attack next. Let me see if you are loyal to the royal family or to this country."

The prince finally could no longer maintain his composure. As soon as his feet gave out, the jailer clamped his arms and dragged him out of the dungeon.

This is the highest-ranking person who has died since the war between Free City and the Kingdom.

No noble's butt is clean, this is an iron rule - even Annan, whom everyone loves, has some scandals with women.

The remaining two hundred people are willing to join Liberty City.

Jones took the document picked up by his subordinates, flipped through a few pages, and as if he had made up his mind, he turned around and left with everyone.

Francois sent some undercover agents to go back first to bring back the families of the soldiers, and at the same time sent them to collect evidence of the prince's crime.

Because he had not bathed for several days and defecated in the cell, the prince was dirty and smelly, and his neatly combed hair became messy.

One third of the five hundred Guardsmen died on the battlefield, and one third of those imprisoned in the dungeon wanted to go back.

"Nobles?" Francois shook his head, "There are no nobles in the dungeons of Liberty City, only prisoners."

"In the year 993 of Saint Laurent's calendar, you fell in love with the noblewoman Milissa at the ball, forcibly took possession of her, and beat her fiancé to death."

So when Francois said, "Is such a kingdom really worthy of your allegiance?", the prisoners seemed a little silent.

…

As the prince of the Ruikaner Kingdom and the king's uncle, the prince is full of crimes, if not full of evil. Even excluding some of the less serious crimes of "taking away shops with power" and "beating passers-by in the street", there is still a whole parchment listed.

Francois raised his head and looked at the falling snowflakes.

Someone spoke in the gloom.

"...Now, on behalf of Champion Warlock, King of the North, Lord of Free City, Annan Levis, I declare: You are guilty."

The Kingdom of Ruikanle agitated public opinion and criticized Free City for killing the nobles.

"No……"

No matter what outsiders think, Annan did find out a lot of secrets.

Francois held the battle report in hand and stayed in the big house for a long time. Finally, he came out with good news: the escaping prince was caught.

He came to the Star City dungeon, and the prince, who according to his seniority should be the uncle of the young king, was sitting in the cell, covered in dust from several days of escaping, and looking a little embarrassed.

The noose was put around his neck. The prince wanted to say something, but was unable to speak. He just kept looking at Francois with eyes begging for mercy.

During these three days, they were taught a lot of truth about Liberty City and the Kingdom of Rekaner, as well as the magical imaging session every night.

"Where you should be."

"If you make a mistake, you will be punished. It's that simple."

"Where are you taking me!?" The prince suddenly felt uncertain.

"And if you are willing to stay, Liberty City will go and take your families back."

…

In the early morning of a new day, the jailer came to the prince's cell and opened the cell door.

Francois appeared and looked at the prince with pursed lips: "Omo Montreal, Prince of the Kingdom of Ruikan. From the old royal capital to the new royal capital, your bad reputation is widespread."

"But allow me to remind you, in the style of that mad king, if you return after defeating the battle, you will only be imprisoned in the dungeon of the new king's capital and receive even more cruel treatment..."

Regardless of the prince's gloomy expression, Francois came to the place where the Guards prisoners were being held.

The centurion wants to capture Maria and make a specimen for the new scavengers to observe. Maria wants to send the centurion to the bottom nest to ask for credit.

"In the year 996 of Saint Laurent's calendar, your people discovered a gold mine in the town of Brussels. In order to avoid the high relocation costs and hide the information, you ordered your men to lure a group of orcs to the town of Brussels and let them destroy the town. After killing all the people, he will lead the guards to destroy the orcs and establish a mine. "

The people of Xing'er City stood quietly on the street, watching an embarrassed and bloated figure being dragged by the jailer and placed in front of the gallows.

"Okay, Maria hasn't done anything bad." Annan tried to smooth things over.

Normally, they would just smile disdainfully, but in the dark dungeon, what they see and hear will turn into their thoughts in the darkness.

The first snowfall in Xing'er City came unexpectedly.

"I will let you go back." Francois's shocking words made them raise their heads.

The prince's face became even uglier, thinking of the rebellious past in Liberty City, but the arrogance given to him by his status made it difficult for him to lower his head: "Give me paper and pen, and I will write a letter to the new capital and ask them to pay the ransom."

The jailers are the "old men" of the Free Blade and Salted Fish Gangs, and they are the group of people who hate the nobles the most.

Francois was somewhat tempted, but still shook his head. He thought Annan would support him.

During this period, Maria also met with the centurion. When enemies meet, they are particularly jealous.

"Really?"

On the other side, Annan has been hanging out with Maria and Gale.

"No..."

"What do you want?"

"Free City never lies."

The death of the prince caused an uproar.

Then Free City disclosed the details: they sent the intelligence to the new capital, but there was no response. Except for the Green Ivy Knights who chose to sacrifice themselves for the people of the kingdom and protect the town, all other towns were destroyed in the invasion of the ratmen.

At this time, he was looking at Francois standing outside: "Free City people, I demand noble treatment!"

In the square in front of the city lord's mansion, a gallows that had been built since yesterday has been completed.

"990 Saint Laurent calendar..."

It's more than enough...

Francois coldly recounted the prince's evidence one by one. The prince, who wanted to struggle at first, gradually lowered his head to avoid the arrow-like eyes of the people in the square.

Three days later, news came from the border of the kingdom that the Green Ivy Knights and a group of elite ratmen who were invading the border town of the kingdom died together.

The centurion squinted and said sarcastically: "Is your head controlled by your ass? When she was the countess, she killed a lot of people..."

"It must be their fault!"
