Working Prophet.

Chapter 702 Ascension in the Daytime
The crowd erupted in a louder cheer after a moment of silence.

At the same time, countless voices gathered together and turned into two words that were repeated repeatedly.

— Judgment!Judgment!Judgment! ! !
The voice became louder and louder, as if it was about to break through the sky, and Ge Wen's face changed drastically upon hearing it.

On the other hand, Quintus remained silent.

"Our first prisoner, the interrogator of Multiscale City, according to our investigation, has interrogated 210 and nine suspects of the 'Blood Moon Society' in the past six months.

"More than half of them died during the interrogation process, and less than 20 of the remaining people have survived to this day."

A fat man who was almost twice the size of an ordinary person was escorted in front of Herodotus.

Before Herodotus could speak again, he fell to his knees with a plop, crying bitterly, "Shapiro forced me to do it, Shapiro forced me to do it, and I am also a believer in the goddess of silver moon, How could he have the heart to attack other believers!
"Please, please spare my life. I already know I was wrong and am willing to work for you."

"It's not me you should ask." Herodotus shook his head and said softly, "I'm not your judge."

After speaking, he moved his eyes to the crowd at his feet, looked around and said, "As I promised before, I will return the right to judge him to you.

"It's up to you to decide his fate. If you think he is innocent, then I will ask someone to release him now. If you think he has committed a heinous crime, you can also ask me to execute him.

"So please use the power in your hands carefully."

Before Herodotus finished speaking, someone shouted, "Execute him, execute him, and avenge those who died!"

"That's right, kill him! Kill him!!! My brother died at his hands!!!"

More and more people called for his execution. The fat interrogator's face was pale and he couldn't help shaking.

He seemed to know that he was doomed today, but he didn't want to sit still, so he stood up from the ground, turned his head and fled down the stone steps.

However, Ilkander, who was on the side, had quick eyesight and quick hands, had already pulled out the saber at his waist, and cut off the fat interrogator's head cleanly with one sword.

The head flew a long way and landed right at Herodotus' feet.

But Herodotus didn't even look at it, just smiled and said, "The next prisoner, oh no, it should be the next group of prisoners, the remnants of the Raimundi family.

"After you killed Shapiro, they wanted to contact the garrison and arrest and execute all those involved in the riot, so what do you think we should do with them?"

The voices of the crowd were much quieter this time. After all, the Raimundi family had ruled the multi-scaled city for a long time. Even though the Patriarch Shapiro was dead, the power was still there.

Moreover, there were women and children among the more than 40 prisoners brought up this time.

So this time the crowd quarreled.

Herodotus was not in a hurry, and waited silently on the stone steps. After about a quarter of an hour, the people below the stone steps barely agreed.

Kill all the men of the Raimondi family, and send the women to the brothel.

But soon someone objected, "You can't leave him alive, otherwise what if that guy comes to us for revenge in the future?"

"Yes, they should all be killed!" Someone echoed, "When Shapiro arrested and tortured us, none of these people stopped him, so they must be guilty too."

"Then what is your final decision?" asked Herodotus.

"Kill them all, kill them all!!!
"That's right, we can't leave a disaster behind." The voices in the crowd demanding that all these 40 people be executed grew louder.

"This is not justice at all, it's just a carnival of a group of thugs." Ge Wen's face was livid.

But this time Quintus did not refute, the expression on his face became a little dazed, as if he had encountered some problem.

Just as Ge Wen was speaking, more than 40 heads fell to the ground together.

Blood even splattered Herodotus' robes, making his robes look even more colorful.

"The next prisoner is a big man," Herodotus said. "He is the acting city lord of Yanxue City, Lord 'Severe Winter' Gwen from the Figuerolla family."

Herodotus seemed to be introducing a product, and after he finished speaking, someone pushed Ge Wen up the stone steps.

Ge Wen didn't resist, but he suddenly turned around after taking a few steps with his head closed, and grabbed the saber of the soldier behind him.

He pulled it out forcefully, and then roared, "You mobs have no right to judge me at all!"

After speaking, he charged at Herodotus.

However, the injured leg slowed him down, because the inflammation caused by the infection also made him break out in a cold sweat, and his feet felt numb.

After running two steps, Ge Wen saw that a group of guards had already surrounded Herodotus, and knew that it was impossible for him to kill the High Priest of the Blood Moon Society.

So he rushed down the stone steps and jumped into the crowd before the surrounding soldiers rushed up.

Ge Wen swung the long sword in his hand and killed three people in a row, causing other civilians around to run away in fright. He set his sights on the guy who was the happiest in the trial just now, and was about to chase after him, but the next moment his footsteps stopped pause.

A sharp arrow shot him in the back!

But Ge Wen stared at his blood-red eyes, as if he didn't feel any pain at all, swung his long sword again, and killed another person, so the second arrow also came, this time hitting his lower back.

Then came the third arrow...Ge Wen finally got six arrows in his body before he fell unwillingly.

Herodotus frowned, of course he could see that Ge Wen was simply begging for death, and didn't want to accept the so-called trial like the previous few.

However, in the situation just now, it is obviously impossible to let Ge Wen continue to slaughter the believers under the stone steps without shooting arrows.

Herodotus shook his head, and in the end he could only accept this result.

This was different from what he had planned, but it was not a big mistake, and Ge Wen died in the end.

Herodotus moved his eyes to Quintus again, and the latter seemed to be touched by Gwen's death, and now he was looking up at Herodotus with a glare.

But the expression in his eyes quickly changed from anger to surprise.

Herodotus actually admired Quintus, because the latter was different from the corrupt high priests in the Silver Moon Church. He was a person with real skills, and he also had a very devout belief in Picia.

Herodotus hopes to subdue Quintus and let him be used by the Blood Moon Society.

Just thinking about Herodotus, he suddenly realized that his feet were light, and his whole body was floating towards the sky.

The high priest of the Blood Moon Society froze for about two seconds before realizing that he had been hijacked.

Just when everyone was attracted by Ge Wen who was fighting bloodily under the stone steps, a black shadow rushed towards him from above the temple behind Herodotus.

And when the guards around Herodotus realized what had happened, they saw that their high priest had been grabbed by that figure and rushed into the sky.

"Bastard! Put down Lord Herodotus!"

"Don't go!!!"

The guards had already drawn their longbows and aimed at the figure in the air, but they were afraid to shoot their arrows for fear of accidentally injuring Herodotus.

So he could only watch helplessly as the winged figure flew higher and higher.

Just when the big guy was at a loss and didn't know where the figure was going to take Herodotus, who would have thought that the guy in the air would be so kind and really let go of Herodotus' arm.
