"Your Majesty, any of these punishments, whether stoning, burning, or beheading, would be enough to kill him."
Elisha then called the woman in the corner over and asked her to tell him about the atrocities she and the other women had suffered there.
Of course, the man kneeling on the ground was the one who participated the most, and even the horrific scars on their bodies were caused by this man kneeling on the ground.
Contrary to his ferocious appearance, the scarred man was also involved, but he did not commit such violent acts.
Elisha was staring at the man kneeling on the ground, wishing he could give him a taste of his own medicine.
But he felt that this was not enough.
He needed to handle the matter in accordance with the laws of the empire to establish the prestige of the new empire and make it known to everyone that the rules of the new empire must be followed.
Any heretic who dares to invade the New Empire will be punished most severely!
"Your Highness, I did something stupid because I was confused for a moment!"
"Please forgive me! Please forgive me!"
"Look, look, I have accumulated a lot of wealth before. As long as Your Highness is happy, I can give it all to you!"
"I only beg you to spare my life, Your Highness!"
As the man spoke, he kicked hard at the servants who were kneeling on the ground behind him and not moving.
His servants were crawling on the ground, wriggling like maggots. They opened a box nearby and took out many shining gems.
They are expensive.
"My Lord! With these gems, you can rebuild the city of Hebron!"
"Yes! I have committed many crimes, destroyed many houses, and accidentally killed many people... But looting cannot avoid casualties. I have also instructed them to minimize casualties as much as possible."
"So, the reason why this situation happened today is all because of him! It's because his people didn't obey my orders! That's why Hebron is flooded with blood!"
The man raised his voice and pointed viciously at the scarred man.
But when the scarred man saw his appearance, he just snorted coldly.
"It's really unpleasant to work with someone like you."
"If I had known this, I would have become the lord of this city long ago."
"At least, I can buy some time to escape."
When the man heard the words of the scarred man, he immediately spoke to Elisha again.
"Your Highness, look at this! This fellow remains unrepentant in front of you, even boasting so brazenly!"
"You must punish him severely, Your Highness!"
On the other side, Nan Tong was watching everything that happened here with great interest. He seemed to want to know how Elisha would deal with this matter in the end.
Lin Ke had already anticipated the result, and what he was thinking about now was returning to Cairo as soon as possible.
He saw on the civilization panel that the population of Cairo had reached a new high, and the entire city was now densely packed with people.
He knew very well that the management pressure in Cairo City must have reached a new height, and it would be difficult for Malacia and Kamul to cope with it at the same time.
He had been away from Cairo for a long time, and after finishing his business in Hebron, he would return to Cairo immediately.
At this time, Elisha turned his head and looked towards where Lin Ke was.
Lin Ke and his group were wearing black robes, so he couldn't see their appearance at all.
Elisha just looked at where Lin Ke was.
Lin Ke knew very well that the other party was looking at him because he wanted to know what the Holy Pharaoh would do in this situation.
Lin Ke didn't say anything, he just nodded slightly at Elisha.
Elisha widened his eyes slightly and nodded his head vigorously in response.
"Your Highness, please accept these gems!"
The man then presented the gems with both hands. Elisha looked at the gems and narrowed his eyes slightly.
Then he gently picked it up and held it slightly to observe it.
"These gems should be very valuable."
The man, having just heard Elisha's words, immediately responded, "Yes, Your Highness! Just one gem is enough to be exchanged for several, even ten, gold coins!"
"Your Highness, please accept this gift and calm down!"
The scarred man looked at the gems and just curled his lips hard.
Obviously, this was information he didn't know.
Elisha didn't say anything, but picked up one gem after another with his hands and handed them to several soldiers around him.
The women standing beside Elisha, whose bodies were covered with scars, began to breathe anxiously.
Their pupils trembled as they looked at the gems and then at Elisha's eyes.
His eyes were now completely focused on those gems.
"Your Majesty the King of Rule..."
Several women knelt down with a plop, as if they sensed danger.
In their view, Elisha's action of accepting the gem may mean that he forgave the other party's behavior.
After seeing Elisha accept the gems, the kneeling man gave the women an evil smile with ill intentions.
But among these women, there was one who did not kneel down.
She just looked at Elisha without any fear in her eyes.
"Your Highness, by accepting these gems, are you going to forgive this evildoer?"
The soldier behind Elisha took a step forward with an expression that said, "How dare you talk to His Highness?"
But she ignored it and just continued talking.
