Path of light

Chapter 161 162.Fourth trial

Ms. Belinda pointed to the shelves with stones and asked him with a half-smile:

"...Do you have any ideas or suggestions?"

Roy walked over and picked up a fist-sized piece of sapphire, and then took out a scrawled drawing drawn with charcoal. The drawing was simply indescribable...

Just draw a circle inside a square, which made Ms. Belinda frown.

Roy placed the stone on the drawing, thought for a moment, and then said to Ms. Belinda:

"Well, I think... just use this stone to carve a square, then cut off the eight corners of the square, and then hollow out the inside..."

He cast his gaze on the shank of a carving knife, pointed at the shank and continued:

"It's probably as thick as this."

"Is it empty in here?"

"There is actually a hollow ball inside that cannot be rolled out. It is probably like this. It should be hollow and filled with light-transmitting patterns..."

Ms. Belinda listened very carefully and probably understood Roy's idea.

In general, although the ball Roy asked to make is contained in the frame, the ball must be hidden in the cube and cannot be taken out.

In fact, it is the most simplified version of the idea of ​​Linglong Ball.

But this thing is indeed extremely novel in Ms. Belinda's eyes.

This thing is much more interesting than carving character heads, and it is still a delicate route.

The most important thing is not to let Ms. Belinda hide in the studio, using a chisel to remove a large amount of stone every day, not to mention getting covered with stone powder, it is also very hard.

After listening to Roy's suggestion, Belinda took out the paintbrush and drew a sketch on the back of the paper.

I don’t know how late she went to bed.

When she got up from bed early in the morning, Belinda was lying on the big bed in the bedroom on the second floor, sleeping very soundly.

She was wrapped in white sheets...

The sun shines through the glass, forming a spot of light that shines on her back, which is as white as milk, making it dazzling...

…

On the fourth Sunday after returning from the Malaga jungle, Roy still couldn't take a good rest.

He came out of home early in the morning, first ran to the temple to change into a set of trainee priest robes, and then came to the intersection and took a long carriage to the Council of Elders where the Tree of Life was located.

The people holding the trial in the court this time are: gray dwarf Ralph and blood elf Udula.

High Priest Reed and Jasper did not attend, and only Roy went alone.

Roy stepped out of the carriage and saw a large group of elves gathered under the shade outside the Tree of Life.

After finally squeezing his way to the door of the Council of Elders, with the invitation, Roy walked into the lobby on the first floor of the Council of Elders.

In the hall, Instructor Nora was standing together with several other instructors. The water-type silver moon elf magician named Scarlett was also standing among them, and several instructors were talking quietly.

Roy quickly stepped forward to say hello.

Unexpectedly, the first person to speak was the Silver Moon Elf Magician. She had smooth silver hair and the magic crystal pendant on her chest was extremely eye-catching.

"Roy, are you still a trainee priest in the Temple of Liberty?"

Scarlett seems to be very interested in Roy...

"Well, I work part-time at the Temple of Liberty," Roy replied.

Scarlett immediately hugged Instructor Nora, who was much stronger than her. For this reason, the magic robe on her body was squeezed and wrinkled, and she heard her say:

"I didn't expect that among your students, there are actually trainee priests. How about we go to the ruins of despair this holiday?"

Instructor Eleanor’s face changed drastically as she shouted:

"Are you still going? Have you forgotten that the ghost holding a scythe ran out of the ruins and chased us for how long..."

Scarlett said with some pride: "Our team has a priest this time, are we still afraid of it?"

Instructor Eleanor said angrily: "He is just a trainee priest, don't expect too much from him..."

"The trainee priest...that's also a priest."

Scarlett said somewhat unconvinced.

…

There was a commotion at the door of the hall on the first floor of the parliament. Roy turned around and saw that Captain Simpson was actually here, and there were several elves patrolling behind him.

Roy quickly walked over and greeted Captain Simpson:

"Captain Simpson..."

Squadron Leader Simpson was wearing silver armor and stood out among the crowd.

He pulled Roy to the corner of the hall on the first floor and whispered to him:

"Roy, I have already asked Princess Ophelia for permission this time. Just wait until the court hearing."

"Um."

Obviously, Captain Simpson doesn't want to leave any hidden dangers in the future...

Everyone began to enter the trial court one after another. Roy became an important witness this time. He sat at the bottom with Instructor Nora, Squadron Leader Simpson and others, closest to Gray Dwarf Ralph and Blood Elf Udula. .

This time, because Ralph and Yudula were going to be tried, the whole court was almost full.

Roy raised his head and looked up. There were countless faces above his head...

The arbitration committee members not only wore black robes this time, but also wore a ring on their head that symbolized rights. Some were inlaid with three gems, and some were only inlaid with one gem. They were extremely gorgeous.

The presiding judge appeared again, and Roy was no longer surprised when he saw the huge tree vine.

When the old elf passed by Roy, he actually looked at Roy deeply.

Then he came to Ralph and Eudra.

The two of them were handcuffed and shackled, and there was a chain between their hands and feet.

Both men were very depressed.

Gray Dwarf Ralph revealed his muscular upper body, only wearing a pair of shorts and bare feet.

His beard was curled together, and there were only a few minor bruises on his body.

Mrs. Yudula was only wearing a linen skirt, her red hair was messily tied together, her head was lowered, and her eyes were almost half-closed.

The presiding judge came to Ralph, coughed slightly, and then said:

"Relph, let me talk about the crimes you committed. I didn't expect to be able to complete your trial while I am alive. This is really a happy thing!"

"Hmph, what's there to show off? Castleton Port, I come to the dock once every winter and summer!"

Ralph snorted coldly.

You can tell from the sound that this gray dwarf is extremely weak now...

The presiding judge ignored what he said and held the wooden basket of tickets to the sky above the trial room. His voice was a little hoarse and he said:

"Relf, ​​in the summer of 1367, you led your pirates to rush into Castleton Port, plundered more than a hundred elves, and also caused the deaths of seventy-three elves and injured fifty-seven elves. When you arrived at the port, you also burned down many facilities in the port."

"I did this."

Gray Dwarf Ralph rolled his eyes and said disdainfully.

Roy didn't expect that they had looted Castleton Harbor and completely burned it down before leaving.

The presiding judge added:

"In July of this year, you commanded the Sea Wolf to dock at Castleton Harbor and rob the priest of the Temple of Liberty. After the operation failed, you abandoned the ship and escaped."

"This was done by my men. If it hadn't been for that idiot, I wouldn't be standing here today."

Ralph seemed a little excited.

The presiding judge waved his hand to signal him to be quiet.

"In September of this year, that is, last week, you and Eudula returned to Castleton Harbor and tried to carry out revenge against Princess Ophelia. Before they could take action, they were arrested and imprisoned... "

"I came back this time to take away the Sea Wolf."

Ralph argued loudly again.

The presiding judge ignored Gray Dwarf Ralph's protest and turned around to state her crime to Mrs. Udula. Mrs. Udula did not argue and accepted her trial in silence.

Then the witnesses explained the crimes committed by Gray Dwarf Ralph.

This time the trial actually found the mixed-blood elf who was victimized in Castletown Port forty years ago.

Roy and Captain Simpson both said that Gray Dwarf Ralph was lurking in Castleton Harbor just to take revenge on Princess Ophelia. The reasons and evidence were very sufficient.

In addition, gray dwarf Ralph is also a slave trader. Although he is selling a group of Nagahai people, this also violates the laws of the elven kingdom.

Therefore, the arbitration committee sentenced the two pirates very harshly.

The Gray Dwarf Captain Ralph will be imprisoned in the Parram Island Prison for a term of three hundred years.

Dwarves have a lifespan of two hundred years. Under normal circumstances, Gray Dwarf Ralph would never have a chance to escape from prison in this life.

The blood elf Lady Udula will go to an underground mine in the Evernight Forest to mine magic crystals until she dies of old age.

If there is no illness or disaster, Mrs. Yudula may have to dig in the hole for at least two to three hundred years...

The Silver Moon elves have an almost paranoid hatred of the blood elves.

When the elves in Castleton learned that Ralph and Udula were going to trial, they waited outside the Tree of Life early, and the outermost edge of the crowd extended to the Heroes' Square.

When the military escorted the two prisoners, the streets were crowded with onlookers.

Facts have proved that the Castleton elves have surprisingly the same idea when it comes to facing Ralph and Yudula:

I just want to put them in jail so that they will never come out in this life.
