Chapter 286 The Taste of Rights

The White Tower didn't keep Robert waiting long.

On the second day after Robert found Anvilia, and the same day that the Great Barrier was repaired by the great wizards, the news that the crazy Orlando would be sentenced to silver injection at dusk today spread through various channels. The inside of the tower spread.

Although the story of Orlando blowing up the City of Fortune has been widely reported in the land west of El Carter, to this day, there are still a considerable number of wizards who do not know who Orlando is.

But the White Tower executives naturally thought of this.

Who is Orlando, where he came from, what he did in the city of wealth, etc., are all carefully listed on the notice, making even an old-fashioned wizard who never cares about current affairs and doesn't like watching plays You can also understand what kind of person this is.

As the first major criminal whose execution was publicized within the scope of the White Tower, Orlando did attract the attention of such a group of wizards who usually stay in the laboratory and never go out.Especially those technical nerds in the R&D department, it was the first time that they received a notice sent directly to their test bench - for a moment, they even wondered if their research had violated some taboo.

But when they saw the content of the notice clearly, they immediately understood why the White Tower executed a person in such a big way.

This guy named Orlando is simply the contemporary dragon hunter Esther.

He not only defrauded a considerable amount of wealth, but also detonated the holy fire bomb. Destroyed a large number of laboratories, handed over the deployment map of the White Tower to the temple, and dismantled the Great Barrier from the inside. .

It can be said that if it weren't for the rich heritage of the White Pagoda and the presence of its owner, the White Pagoda would have been on the brink of collapse just like the city of wealth.

At this moment, the wizards immediately understood why the White Tower, known for its gentle law, would execute someone.

This is the first time that the White Tower has been executed since its establishment.But Orlando is indeed worthy of this treatment.

The announcement also devoted a lot of space to describing the details of Orlando's entire plan—from the letter fundraising used to test the water at the beginning, to the expansion plan for the next two stages, it was completely listed in the announcement.Because Orlando's arrest was secret and quick, those wizards who were deceived by Orlando did not realize the fact that they had been deceived until the eve of execution.

At the same time, in order to prevent demonstrations, the calculation starts when the wizards receive the notice, and Orlando will be executed in a few hours.

The announcement pointed out that Orlando still has a considerable number of collaborators.These collaborators, whether knowing or not, helped Orlando carry out publicity in normal times, and on the eve of Orlando's arrest, it was they who kept the huge sum of money held by Orlando, and it was they who assassinated those witnesses.

"... I hope that the wizards who suffered losses in this incident will remain calm, and immediately report the exact amount of losses to the nearest public security bureau, and wait for subsequent compensation. The relevant departments have obtained relevant information about these accomplices. Once they show their feet , will be immediately locked by the 'Gazebo' enchantment, and I hope that all wizards will actively report any suspicious elements, and your little effort will provide great help to more victims."

Robert half leaned on the reclining chair behind him, holding the notice with one hand and reading word by word: "...We will definitely give you a satisfactory answer to all wizards."

"Oh, it's the same as the truth."

Robert smiled disdainfully, then threw away the notice in hand.

If it weren't for the fact that a tall clerk with gold-rimmed glasses made it up on the spot under his supervision, maybe he really believed it.

The Orlando information and details of the deception in this notice do look like the result of an interrogation, and that is enough.Anyway, no matter how suspicious those people were, it was impossible for them to interrogate Orlando by themselves.And under the intimidation of that "accomplice criminal", naturally no one would risk being investigated by a certain department to defend Orlando.

Announced on the same day, executed on the same day.It's too late to parade in the streets.

Even if they realized something was wrong, five or six hours in one afternoon would not be enough for them to investigate any useful information.And after Orlando was executed, no one would entangle too much about Orlando's death method.

At most, they urged the White Tower authorities to find those Orlando accomplices as soon as possible and send their compensation.And once you get caught in the game of kicking the ball, it's tantamount to going to the home court of the White Tower's top management.

Basically, no risk is possible.Orlando must be punished with a silver injection.

After the notice was circulated throughout the White Tower, if the White Tower's senior officials still wanted to have even a little credibility, they would never go back on their word.

Now, those "smart people" who think more, I'm afraid they have already found various reasons for the high-level White Tower in their hearts.

For example, the immediate execution of the death penalty against Orlando was actually intended to break down the moral defenses of Orlando's associates.After such a quick blow, if the benefits of tainted witnesses are announced again, maybe there will be accomplices who can't bear the pressure and will confess on their own initiative.

——If Orlando really has a so-called accomplice.

Robert took a deep breath and felt a little happier.

He used to be such a smart guy.

He always believed that as long as he thought more, things would go more smoothly.But today, he finally understood that the information he was exposed to when he was "thinking" was just the information that others wanted him to be exposed to.What he will think and how he will act has already been planned. What follows is just like a clown making people laugh with his clumsy and full-body acting skills.

It's better to be down-to-earth if you have that cranky kung fu.Even if you read one more book and organize a formula of witchcraft, it is much better than pondering these useless things.

As Orlando was sentenced to death, Herlan's figure gradually dissipated in Robert's heart.The injustice pent up in his chest was finally relieved.

Suddenly, Robert lost interest in watching the Orlando execution.

Even if he stayed on the land for a while, Robert felt that his time was being wasted.

"When the big barrier opens, go back to Titan."

Robert chuckled, reached out and picked up a glass of wine next to the lounge chair and put it in front of his eyes.

In the crystal-clear round belly cup of Karal is a dark red liquid like fresh blood.The unique strong fruity aroma of Caral red wine is condensed by the inwardly retracted cup mouth. The spherical cup body and the larger cup mouth than the Farrar goblet are suitable for sticking your nose in to smell the aroma.

Robert stared at the blood-like liquid in a daze, took a deep breath of the aroma, took a sip, then tilted the cup, and poured all the remaining expensive liquid on the ground.

"Herlan... rest in peace."

Whispering, he put the empty wine glass upside down to his lips, his whole body fell backwards as if he lost his strength, and he put all his weight on the soft recliner behind him.

He didn't even think that his identity would be so useful.

Robert sat up suddenly, staring at the crimson liquid sprinkled on the snow-white carpet, and took a breath intoxicated.That precious fruity fragrance filled the entire room like this.

"The smell of power...it smells so good."

Robert whispered.

He finally understood why the old man held on to his last breath and refused to let go, and why the elder brothers acted so recklessly one by one.

He finally realized what his status as a prince meant.

Ambition turned into flames, gradually burning from the bottom of Robert's pupils.
