Reborn as Cthulhu Statue

Both of them were deep-minded people, even though they wanted to kill each other, they still nodded politely on the surface.

The Holy Son and the Holy Maiden don't have such deep energy cultivation skills.

Lu Xiao said arrogantly: "Yuyao, after today, your position as saintess is a bit suspended. I don't know if you still have the heart to spend all day in the temple of worship and messing around with a group of little kids?"

"It's none of your business. Take care of yourself first. It's too early to tell who wins? Don't run out crying like last time. It's embarrassing." Jiang Yuyao replied mercilessly.

"Hmph, let's wait and see, I hope the saint can save her followers. If you can't even save your followers, who will dare to follow you in the future?"

"Don't worry, when the public trial meeting is over, maybe who will lose their followers."

The speaker was not interested in the listener, and the elder who was walking in front of him was shocked, stopped, and looked back at the saint.

Could it be that the leader's faction still has a hole card to turn the tables?

"Heh... Great Elder, the little guys are fighting each other, don't you want to intervene?"

Jiang Wentian hastily diverted Lu Cangqiong's attention to cover up the topic for Jiang Yuyao, not wanting to reveal his cards in advance.

"Of course not, I'm just curious about what the saint said."

"Don't be curious, won't it be clear after the public trial is over?"

"The old man will wait and see."

The bosses sat down in their seats one after another.

The high platform is divided into three floors, and the height is gradually reduced.

On the first floor, Jiang Wentian was dressed in the leader's robe and held a scepter, sitting solemnly and solemnly on the leader's seat in the center, with the elder sitting on the left and the deputy leader on the right.

Deputy Hierarch Barlov is a typical neutral faction, and the neutral faction is headed by him.

The deputy leader is not a human race, but a lion man in the orc race.

He was wearing a battle armor, and there was a big knife next to his seat, and he looked very heroic.

The orc clan is also a big clan in the Tianyuan Continent, and there is also a powerful orc empire.

The orc empire is mainly in the southern continent, and there are not many orcs in the eastern continent.

What's more interesting is that the appearance of the orcs is basically divided into two factions.

One is the unrestrained faction, like orcs like the deputy leader Barlov.

They are furry all over their bodies, no different from beasts.

It's just that they walk upright, have wisdom, can communicate, and can use vitality combat skills.

The fighting races in the orc tribe, the lion tribe, tauren, centaur tribe, werewolf tribe, etc. are basically unrestrained.

The other is the Grace School, just like the orc maids around Barlov.

Except for their ears and tails, they are completely indistinguishable from humans.

The cat people, rabbit people, dog people, fox people and other middle and lower races all belong to the graceful school.

As an organization that spans the entire continent, the Black Lotus Sect naturally does not only accept followers of the human race.

Believers of any intelligent race are accepted.

It's just that in the main arena, the human race is the main one.

Several sub-forums in the Beastman Empire are dominated by orcs, and the high-level sub-fortunes are basically orcs.

The holy son Lu Xiao and the holy maiden Jiang Yuyao are on the second floor, their status is second only to the three big bosses above.

The third floor is the various high-level members of the church. Those who can be on the third floor are basically the hall masters of the main altar, the rudder masters of the sub-rudders, and the elders of each hall.

This public trial seems to deal with traitors in the church, but it is actually a head-on contest between the leader's faction and the great elder's faction.

If anyone loses, their prestige in the church will plummet.

Many neutrals will choose to fall to the winning side.

This public trial event is particularly important, and even some sub-rudder masters from all over the mainland rushed back to the main altar to observe this matter.

Yuyi was not idle either, he also wanted to participate in the public trial plan.

Luo Yuan was one of his first disciples, and one of the three captains of the Time-Space God Sect. He would become the pillar of the Time-Space God Sect in the future. He couldn't sit back and watch the other party be humiliated.

This time, Yuyi didn't care about the guidance in the mission, but took the initiative.

He also obtained the identity of a defendant's defender from Jiang Wentian and participated in it.

The reason why he took the initiative to take action is also to establish a good image for the believers of the Time and Space God Sect.

A belief is planted in the hearts of believers that as long as they believe in him sincerely and do not commit crimes, the gods will not abandon them.

Chapter 19 Public Trial

The square is already full of people.

"Today is really lively. It has been a long time since there has been such a grand event in the General Forum."

"It's a pity that such a grand event has hidden murderous intentions."

"Indeed, I heard that the leader faction and the great elder faction are about to beat out the dog's brains."

"Hush, keep your voice down, do you want to die? If people from both sides hear it, you will be finished."

"Yeah, our neutral bottom-level shrimp can't afford to mess with those prehistoric giant crocodiles, just do our own thing."

"It makes sense."

…………

The believers in the square whispered to each other, and countless voices mixed together, making it very noisy.

Today's presiding judge is Page. As the head of the law enforcement hall, he is responsible for punishing church members who violate the dogma.

"The public trial meeting is about to begin, please be quiet!"

A loud voice reached everyone's ears, and the noisy square immediately became audible.

"Take the suspect Luo Yuan." Paige said loudly.

The law enforcement team pressed Luo Yuan onto the square, in front of the rostrum.

Luo Yuan was not as vigorous as before, and looked a little haggard, but fortunately, he was not abused.

This incident made a big noise and shocked the entire general forum.

Jiang Wen was personally involved in this matter, and the followers of the saint even ran to the dungeon every now and then.

Page also wanted to use this incident to create momentum and advance Lu Cangqiong's plan.

If torture is used without authorization, it will be a fact of life, which is not conducive to maintaining the image of their church.

Luo Yuan is also considered lucky. In normal times, Page would definitely torture him in private to extract a confession.

Page said loudly: "The defender of the defendant Luo Yuan, Mr. Yuyi, is invited, and the defender of the plaintiff Fang Page, Rhodes, is here."

Personnel from both sides stood in corresponding positions.

Yuyi was speechless, this public trial felt a bit like a court trial on earth.

It's just that the public trial of the Black Lotus Sect is still not as formal as the courts on earth.

Jiang Wentian glanced at everyone in the square, paused on Yuyi for a few seconds, and said in a deep voice: "Today's public trial meeting, we will conduct a public trial under the witness of the God of Destruction."

"I swear in the name of the God of Destruction, this leader will not favor any good person, nor will I spare any bad person."

"This leader is the presiding judge, the elder is the judge, and the deputy leader is the clerk."

"The public trial has begun. Please tell me the reason for suing Luo Yuan, the head of the plaintiff's law enforcement hall, Paige."

"Yes, my lord."

Page bowed to Jiang Wentian, then looked at Luo Yuan and said loudly, "Mr. Luo Yuan, as a follower of the Holy Maiden, you are colluding with foreign enemies with the intention of overthrowing the Black Lotus Sect."

"My hall master has searched a lot of evidence in your residence, do you have anything to say?"

Luo Yuanqiang cheered up, and said in a firm tone: "I am loyal to the Black Lotus Sect and will never betray it. This is someone who framed it."

Page continued: "The master of this hall will not slander any good person, nor will he let any bad person go. Someone here will present the evidence."

A law enforcement team from the Law Enforcement Hall walked towards the rostrum with several pieces of evidence.

They placed the evidence in front of the rostrum, and used array projection to project the contents of the letter and some video contents onto the square for everyone to watch.

No matter the letter or the video, it clearly shows that Luo Yuan has colluded with a certain force outside the church.

For a time, the whole square was in an uproar.

"Fuck, it's really evidence of correspondence with non-teachers. Letters can be falsified, but the content of the video cannot be falsified."

"I didn't expect that someone would dare to betray our sect. Those who don't know are really fearless."

"It must be dealt with seriously. If you dare to collude with the enemy and betray you at a young age, you will be fine when you grow up."

"Huh? That's not necessarily true. Luo Yuan is a follower of the Holy Maiden, and Page is a member of the Holy Son. They won't deal with it themselves. What if the Hall Master Paige deliberately framed him?"

"Nonsense, since Paige became the head of the Law Enforcement Hall, he has been conscientious and has never made a mistake. He is a role model for our generation. How could he frame a junior."

"It's a stone hammer. This brother is definitely from the elders' line to wash the ground. Who doesn't know that Page often uses power for personal gain and suppresses dissidents, and he even has the face to brag about it."

"Shut up, I'm going to fight you."

"Come on, I'm afraid you won't make it?"

…………

The melon eaters in the square turned from discussions to disputes, and even showed signs of fighting.

The whole square was noisy.

"Quiet." Jiang Wentian tapped the ground with his scepter, the sound was not loud, but it reached everyone's ears.

Everyone stopped talking.

No matter which faction they are from, they dare not contradict the leader Jiang Wentian in such a public place, otherwise they will die miserably.

"Luo Yuan, Paige has presented evidence, do you plead guilty? Or do you have any evidence to refute your actions?"

Luo Yuan opened his mouth, not knowing what to say. Seeing those images, he wondered if he had really betrayed the Black Lotus Sect.

Because those images are too real, as if he participated in the events in the images personally.

Yu Yi took a step forward and said, "Master, Grand Elder, Deputy Hierarch, Holy Son and Holy Maiden, Your Royal Highness Wan An, as Luo Yuan's defender, I request to speak."

"allow."

With Jiang Wentian's approval, Yu Yi explained in a full-fledged manner: "Our Luo Yuan was admitted to the main altar for training when he was six years old. He is an orphan who lost his family during the war."

"He has been in the general arena for eight years, and he has never left the general arena once. It is impossible for him to have the opportunity to liaise with foreign enemies."

"The so-called evidence is all fabricated. Someone deliberately framed Luo Yuan."

Page said loudly: "Mr. Yu, this is just your speculation. Luo Yuan really has no chance to get in touch with the outside world, but it doesn't mean that the outside world can't get in touch with him.

"There must be other undercover agents in the church. Those undercover agents are connecting Luo Yuan and secretly selling out the interests of the church."

"Besides, the congregation's eyes are sharp. Documents can be forged, but videos cannot be forged."

Page has absolute confidence in the perjury he fabricated, even Jiang Wentian's personal inspection could not find any problems.

He looked at Yu Yi with confidence, waiting for the other party to argue.

"Oh, I don't know who the undercover agent Paige is talking about?"

"How does the head of the hall know? I have to ask Luo Yuan, the head of the hall hopes that he will tell the truth and confess the instigation behind the scenes."

"Heh... Paige's skill in framing is getting better and better. The evidence you mentioned is just supporting evidence. It can't be considered conclusive evidence until the outsider who has contacted Luo Yuan is caught."

Page also knew that what Yuyi said was the truth, he could only use Huanghuang's momentum to coerce Luo Yuan, hoping to break down the opponent's psychological defense and make him confess his guilt voluntarily.

"Luo Yuan, now that the evidence is solid, do you plead guilty?"

Luo Yuan shook his head and said, "I'm not guilty, I was wronged."

"Since you are stubborn, then the hall master will continue to give you strong information."

Page clapped his hands and continued: "The second batch of evidence."
