Chapter 488 Go straight to the stake
"Then go back and come up with a specific plan. We need to have more people, and have several regiments act together. We also need to make plans for supply and retreat, as well as how to contact the resistance army."
"Why not just take Nora with you?"
"That's not good. If Nora and Nora meet and merge similar items, I mean if some extraordinary accidents happen, it will be very troublesome."
Hughes thought for a moment and pulled out a piece of paper. "How about this? I'll write a letter and Nora will write one. Uh, sign it and attach some of her keepsakes. You can take it to the resistance army and it should be credible."
"Okay, but Nora only has her head left. How can she have any keepsake?"
The image of Nora's pure white hair appeared in Hughes' mind. "Forget it, why don't you go ask Isaac?"
"Hasn't he been locking himself in his room?"
"It's a good opportunity for you to do some ideological work on him."
"No problem!" Nini rushed out of the room with her snake tail wagging and disappeared in an instant.
Xius looked at her back and suddenly had a bad feeling.
Isaac, the leader of the Ash Alliance, Caster's intelligence chief, and former logistics manager of the Fire Moth, now locked himself in the house with a depressed look on his face.
He's a very strong man, but he's suffered too much.
He was obviously a dual-path transcendent, but he was beaten by the opponent when he took action.
Lina, who was hanging and beating him, was injured and retreated by Gwen, who was just an ordinary person.
The injured Lina hung him up and beat him when he was ready to challenge her.
He returned to Castel, but he was not recognized and did a lot of embarrassing things.
As a result, Monica failed the assessment and was pestered by her for a long time.
After analyzing the situation in the North for a long time, Xiu Si was proven to be completely wrong - the elite troops under Bazel were directly captured by the resistance army, but Lina under Bazel was able to beat him. He was always regarded as a reliable person, so why did he behave so shamefully?
Isaac is a very strong man. He can adjust his mood, but he just needs to take it slow.
Bang! The door behind him was smashed open.
Isaac was startled and almost used his supernatural powers. He was relieved when he saw Nini's serious face.
"Nini, what's wrong with you?"
"Mr. Isaac, join my team and go to the front line with me to interview fiercely!"
Isaac was stunned.
Hunter stood trembling at the door of the courtroom.
The soldiers escorting him were members of the secret order. Compared with the expeditionary forces Hunter had encountered before, these men had more solemn expressions. They did not carry bolt-action rifles on their waists, but shotguns. The muzzles were thick, but the barrels were not long. The black steel body of the gun looked flamboyant and violent.
Paired with a pure black long gown, it somehow has a religious feel.
They urged Hunter several times, but Hunter just refused to move forward. It was not that he didn't want to move, but he was shaking too badly.
Hunter had a strong feeling that his life would change drastically after entering here. As for what kind of change—
We have already entered the church's court, what else can we do? The two escorts saw Hunter standing there trembling, so they simply carried him in.
The courtroom was quite dim. I walked through the long corridor and turned a few corners. Suddenly, the view became brighter.
This is a hall with a circular sunken platform in the middle and circles of seats around it, rising step by step.
The two men carried Hunter to a chair in the middle of the platform. The chair was fixed to the ground. After his shackles passed through the loops of the chair, he was trapped there.
There were not many people in the room, and there were only two guards around Hunter.
He was still looking around when suddenly there was a "bang" in front of him. Hunter shuddered and looked up.
It was a long curved table, much higher than his seat, so he had to look up. At this moment, several figures in hooded robes were surrounding the table, looking down at him with scrutinizing eyes.
The sound just now was one of them holding a steel hammer and smashing it on a huge anvil beside him. Every time he smashed it, red sparks flew everywhere, making the slightly dim room suddenly light up for a moment.
"The court is in session."
Hunter shrank back and didn't dare to look any further. He wanted to look away, but suddenly he felt something was wrong.
He raised his head and took a quick glance to confirm that he was not mistaken: the seat in the middle of the judge's seat, in front of the high back, was empty.
Logically, the person who was to judge and sentence him should be sitting here, so why was it empty? Wasn't the person here yet?
Just as he was wondering, on the empty long table, an inconspicuous book was turning pages quickly without wind.
"Super-superhuman?" Hunter was surprised. He was born into a noble family and was a scholar, so naturally he knew something about superhumans.
"No, she is the extraordinary dead."
"Hey, Qiao Xi, don't talk nonsense. All your remarks will be recorded after the court session begins!"
"ah?"
There was a whisper among the people above, Hunter couldn't hear clearly, but he was shaking even more violently.
The person sitting in the main seat must be a transcendent who can be permanently invisible. Hunter has never heard of this ability before. It may be a new way. Standing behind Castel is probably a whole huge church and countless believers.
The church that had been unknown all along and suddenly appeared in the Storm Ocean might be related to the legendary sea god. But now that he knew such a secret, could he still get out? Hunter let out a long sigh, and his whole body went limp. He smiled bitterly, thinking that he really had no way out.
The whispers of the people above ended, and a man on the left shouted hoarsely: "Hunter, you..."
"No need to say more, just let me go to the stake!"
"???"
Hunter looked down at the shackles on his hands, a trace of confusion in his eyes.
He seemed to have survived.
He had just walked out of the courtroom and was still in a daze, as if he was in a dream.
The courtroom was not that scary. Although the layout was a bit dark and the decorations were a bit scary, the people inside were not that difficult to talk to.
At least he was given a chance to defend himself.
They questioned Hunter in detail about his actions in the coalition, then read out some of Castel's laws and finally made a verdict.
He was sentenced to fifteen years' detention.
Constituency means forced labor. He needs to work in Castel for fifteen years. After fifteen years, if he does not commit any other crimes, he will be free.
Good behavior can even result in a reduced sentence.
Fifteen years. Hunter is twenty years old this year, and almost the first half of his life has been wasted in this. Since Castel is his place of exile, it is probably not a good place.
But at least he's alive now.
