Chapter 228 Death!
Eastman was taken back to Xie's home and raised.
He was very aware that Xie's attitude towards him had softened a lot and he no longer resisted his approach.
Eastman couldn't help but feel sad when he thought of his deceased relatives.
On the other side, Heras poked the Insect Emperor, who was tied to a rope and almost completely transformed into an insect, with his gun, separating Limp, who was curiously looking around, and said, "Change back."
The Insect Emperor did not respond to him. He just used the sharp part of his body to rub the rope, trying to break free. His pair of wings that were folded up were also struggling hard, and the fragments fell to the ground.
Even at this point, he did not give up the possibility of resisting and escaping.
Although Heras was not satisfied with some of the actions of the Insect Emperor, he admired his perseverance and persistence.
All insects should have the courage to face failure.
"Change back quickly. If you scare my Lord, I will execute you now."
The voice of the Insect Emperor came from nowhere, with a low laugh: "Heras, the law doesn't work like that. If you dare to execute me today without following the law, you will be criticized by the nobles tomorrow."
The nobles he left behind would become Heras' biggest stumbling block.
These old-timers are best at using the law as an excuse.
Although they themselves do not respect the law, once their interests are affected, they will make a lot of legal arguments to suppress other insects.
"From what I know, they provided you with a large amount of money and insect power after you abdicated. Once I have investigated whether they have the controlled substances you left in their bodies, I will naturally make other judgments."
If he is being controlled, help him to release the control and the problem will naturally be solved.
If they were not controlled, and voluntarily performed the behaviors that angered the insects, Heras could justifiably cancel their noble status.
A new emperor appoints new ministers. These nobles have lived in peace for too long, and it is impossible for them to become fence-sitters.
Before, Heras might have needed to be concerned about the reputation of the Insect Emperor and the military strength in the hands of these noble insects, but now, his power is at its peak.
And those potential safety hazards have been resolved one by one.
Heras was free to change the empire.
"So you're going to kill me now?"
Heras calmly repeated his request: "Please change back and don't show yourself in such an indecent posture in front of the noble Lord Xiongzi. Isn't this the rule you wrote yourself?"
The Insect Emperor found that Heras insisted on this point and immediately found a breakthrough: "I can change back, but you have to tell me first, what's the point of keeping me?"
Heras thought for a moment and said, "Isn't it said that we should respect the law? I have to judge you in front of all the insects before I can take action."
He had no intention of letting the Insect Emperor go.
All the concerns I had before have now been resolved.
So, it's time to address this culprit.
Emperor Chong: ... "Can't you be more tactful?"
Tell him why you want to kill him.
Limp poked his head out from behind Heras and said, "So... after you transform back, can you return to the arms of the Insect God in a more dignified manner?"
The Insect Emperor struggled again without giving up, and found that the rope on his body could not be broken at all, as if it was made of some kind of fiber.
"You use precious plants to bind insects?"
Horas looked at the rope made from the vines of some vegetable plants and fell into a rare contemptuous mood, like a country bug seeing a fashionable bun from the city: "This... is free."
After Lin Anan sold the agricultural products to them, she agreed to give them these as well. The only requirement was that they had to dig them out of the fields themselves.
In the end, the Insect Emperor couldn't hold out.
Having spent his entire life trying to maintain his reputation, the Insect Emperor is such a respectable insect.
There was no way he could bear to see his ugly body transformed into a worm on live broadcast.
So when Limp enthusiastically proposed to conduct a live interrogation, the Insect Emperor decisively changed back to his normal form.
"Heras, you'd better have the ability to make the empire better. Otherwise, I will never forgive you even if I die."
…
After a legal trial, the Insect Emperor was executed in front of all the protesting male insects.
Accompanied by the cheers of male insects.
The female insect that had ruled the empire for many years fell.
All he left behind was to be buried with his master, or to be merged into one with him.
This may be the last ruler who supports the supremacy of male insects.
Heras listened to the noise outside, thinking sarcastically, and covered the male insect's eyes and ears tightly: "My lord, be good."
