Working Prophet

Chapter 381 A little show of skill

"Programming, what is programming?" Ilea asked curiously.

"A kind of creative magic that exists in the void, but the activation conditions are relatively harsh and require specific sacred weapons." Li Yu explained.

Miss Rabbit doesn't know how powerful it is, but since it involves void and creation, she feels it should be quite powerful.

It seems that this first servant has something, no wonder he was sent here first on Saturday.

In order not to appear too ignorant, Ilea pretended to understand and nodded, commenting, "Yes, they are the talents we urgently need now."

"But it will take a few months for him to be effective," Li Yu said. "I will let Mary teach him the common language of mainland China first."

"It doesn't matter. The Silver Moon Church is severely weakened by the Herodotus incident, and the Life Church is far away from the royal capital. We have plenty of time now."

…………

early morning. A light mist filled the forest.

The hooves of the galloping horses stepped on the dewy grass stems, and the guards of the Arias family rushed towards the villages and farms in the territory.

According to past practice, when executing a condemned prisoner, the news needs to be spread throughout the territory in advance to facilitate the people in the territory to come and watch.

One is because there is a lack of entertainment these days, and watching executions can be regarded as a kind of pastime, and second, doing so can also play a certain deterrent effect. If someone wants to commit a crime, he will think of those death row prisoners whose heads were beheaded.

However, this time because Li Yu requested that the execution be carried out the next morning, time was tight.

Many people who live far away cannot catch up, but fortunately they still have new excitement to watch.

At dusk, Merlin, the prophet of the Shuangxiu Sect, will personally preside over the summoning ceremony of the heroic spirits, select the lost souls from the Kingdom of God, and let them descend to the continent of Bratis.

Continue to serve the church and Saturday as a follower.

In fact, this news had been secretly spread in the green field as early as a month ago, but it was not officially confirmed by Shuangxiu until today.

There was another uproar among the believers.

People put down what they were doing and rushed to Teacup Castle, wanting to witness this miracle with their own eyes.

Due to the high voices of the people, the female lord finally decided to postpone the execution originally scheduled for early morning to noon to facilitate more people to watch.

As for the place of execution, it was about two miles south of Teacup Castle.

There is a forest there, and there is a huge stone that is only one person tall, and the top is relatively flat. The successive heads of the Arias family executed prisoners there.

Now that boulder has been stained brown with blood, it is called the Blood Platform.

However, the people who rushed there this time found that there was an extra wooden shelf next to the blood platform.

The wooden frame was about three people high, with a wooden plank in the middle and a rope hanging from the top.

Hanging is not very common in the western region, mainly because the population of the western region itself is not large, so there is no need to execute prisoners in batches and quickly in this way.

Moreover, the lords in the western region, especially the male lords, still prefer sword punishment in order to show their bravery, and they often go on stage in person, or have their attendants do it for them.

The last time someone used hanging was the Raimondi family of Multiscale City. In order to avenge his father and brother, Shapiro ordered the execution of all the 20,000 new soldiers of the Silvermoon Church.

Since there could not be enough executioners, some of them were hanged.

But the situation on the Arias family's side is obviously different from that of the Raimondi family. There are not many death row prisoners in Luye.

It still surprised many people to see the female lord switch to hanging.

However, since Ilea converted to Saturday, there have been new changes in the green field almost every day.

Whether it's new farm tools, new farming methods, those beautiful red brick houses and paper, and today's five-week-two-week-off, they are all more impressive than the changes in execution methods.

Therefore, not many people questioned this. The only regret is that the hanging was not decapitated and looked bloody and exciting, which was not attractive enough.

To say that the most dissatisfied are the death row prisoners who are about to be executed.

Someone scolded the female lord as a coward who dared not see blood after seeing the gallows, and Miss Rabbit didn't get used to him.

Someone brought the death row prisoner to the blood platform, and then asked Thomas to borrow his sword, and carried it to the blood platform.

Adhering to a responsible attitude, the girl found a small tree to practice before going on stage.

The female lord was also unambiguous. She took the sword in her hand and slashed at the cedar tree with a serious expression, as if she was fighting a powerful opponent.

As a result, when the three swords went down, the death row prisoner on the blood platform cried. He said that he had deeply realized his previous mistakes, and tearfully begged the female lord to hang him.

Sword punishment looks simple, but it is actually quite technical.

Those who can take the lead with a sword must either have excellent swordsmanship or excellent strength. As far as the latter is concerned, half-orcs have talents in this area, but Ilea is a woman.

Moreover, he had never practiced swords before, and his posture looked fierce, but with a single strike, he could cut through some tree bark, far from enough to cut off his neck.

What's more terrible is that her three swords are aimed at the same place, but the landing points are different, and some of them are even far away. It is obviously unrealistic to point at her to make up for the lack of strength by numbers.

If she really stepped forward to carry out the execution, there was a high probability that she would chop more than a dozen swords, but the target would not die, and could only cry in pain on the ground.

A good sword punishment turned into Ling Chi, who can bear it?

Therefore, the death row prisoner who was still very arrogant before now gave up. Fortunately, the female lord was still kind and did not embarrass the man too much after showing her hand. She returned the sword to the knight.

Seeing that it was almost time, Ilea signaled for the execution to begin.

The focus this morning was on hanging Jieqi, but hanging Jieqi alone felt like something was missing.

After all, so many people rushed over from home after hearing the news, and it felt like calling the big guy out just for such a small matter.

So Miss Rabbit hired three other death row inmates to warm up the scene.

Soon, the first death row prisoner was brought to the gallows by the guards, and a rope was put around his neck. The female lord announced his crime in public, and then did not ask about his last words like in the TV series, because this kind of thing is in the TV series. It has already been asked in the dungeon.

Ilea then resolutely ordered the execution, and the guards on the side turned the mechanism and removed the wooden plank under the condemned prisoner's feet.

The latter's body immediately fell downwards. Theoretically, if the weight of the target and the length of the rope were calculated, it would be possible to destroy the nerve center by tearing off his cervical vertebrae, causing him to die quickly.

But in fact, neither the Arias family nor Shuangxiujiao had talents in this area, so there was something wrong with the length of the rope, causing the target to struggle for a while before dying.
