Chapter 1593: The Death of Nobles
"Prince Epsis, someone must be responsible for the Andromeda β775 tragedy, and Duke Antudier must die."
Mekkatorque came to see Prince Epsys only after receiving the consent of Saint Rhys Celatis.
Prince Epsys is the head of the aristocratic faction, and after the restoration of Saint Rhys Celatis, Epsys has even more power.
Now, if Saint Rhys Celatis wanted to deal with the members of the noble faction, he had to ask Prince Epsys first.
"Mekkatorque, do you know the status of Duke Antudier in the noble faction?" Prince Epsis narrowed his eyes slightly, and his attitude could not be seen from his expression.
Mekkatorque didn't observe the expression of Prince Epsis, and he didn't care about the prince's attitude. He had been forced to a certain extent, and only wanted to save his own civilization. As for the pope or the prince, he didn't care.
"Before this, I always believed that Prince Epsys had the highest military strategy in the royal family, so even if I didn't explain it, the prince should know why Duke Antudier died..."
Mekkatorque continued in a calm tone: "If the prince really doesn't understand, then there is no point in continuing to explain.
"At this point, I already understand that the fate of civilization cannot be saved by me alone.
"Therefore, every step I take in the future, I can only do my best, and the result is not important anymore.
"The worst thing is to be buried with civilization in the Templar Star, buried in the long river of time."
Prince Epsys' expression was slightly touched.
In fact, he really knew why Duke Antudier had to die.
The tragedy of Andromeda β775 destroyed a planet of the low-level Palesean population, and massacred 300,000 Palesean population.
This population is actually just a drop in the bucket for the Palesi civilization.
When Fez sacrificed a billion Palesi lives, the star god descended and repelled the human fleet, the number of Palesians who died was hundreds of times more than that in the Andromeda β775 tragedy.
However, the nature of the two is different.
The one billion Palesi lives sacrificed by Star Fez are explained from the belief of the temple, which is sacrificed to the temple, which is glory, and will become the heroic spirit of the temple after death, bathed in the light of the temple , waiting for rebirth.
To put it another way, the one billion Palesi lives sacrificed by Star Fez are just death at the level of life, and the level of soul can be said to be sublimated.
Regardless of whether the so-called sublimation of the soul is true or not, as long as the lower-level ethnic group in Palesei believes that it is true, it is enough.
Andromeda β775 tragedy is completely different.
It is the noble class, the massacre of the lower class, the brutal massacre.
Because of this incident, the conflict between the aristocratic class and the lower class was completely intensified.
The Duke of Antudier was the culprit, the trigger of the civil war.
If the civil war is to be stopped, Duke Antudier must die.
Only the death of Duke Antudier can extinguish the anger of the lower class.
Mekkatorque didn't speak any more, and looked up at Prince Epsis.
After a long time, Prince Epsis waved his hand and said, "Do as you decide. Every life needs to be responsible for what it has done."
Mekkatorque bowed and saluted, without saying anything, turned around and walked out of the prince's hall to arrange the execution of Duke Antudier.
Three hours later.
The news that the Palesean civilization will execute Duke Antudier in the Abyss of the Forsworn on the Templar star, and seek justice for the victims of the Andromeda β775 tragedy, spread throughout the Andromeda galaxy.
When this news came out, the civil war in the entire galaxy was cut in half.
All the low-level ethnic groups in Palesi want to see the scene of the execution of Duke Antudier.
This is the first time in the history of the Palese civilization that nobles were executed because of the lower class.
before that.
There have also been nobles who were executed, but that was because they offended nobles with higher power.
Never because of the lower class,
A precedent for the execution of nobles.
This is the first time.
Therefore, the Palesi rebels are all paying attention to the execution of Duke Antudier, and many battlefields have temporarily ceased fighting.
...
"Paleser is going to execute Duke Antudier, sooner than we expected." Zhao Anya sent it to the Shenzhou bridge as soon as she received the information.
"It's indeed faster than expected, Palesi's aristocratic faction, are you willing to agree?" Lang Xiaonian felt very strange.
I chatted about this matter when the military scientific research class had dinner before.
According to the complexity of the high-level faction of the Palese civilization, it is difficult for an important member of the noble faction like Duke Antudier to pass the Supreme Council's approval for the execution proposal.
Most of the chat opinions of the military scientific research class believe that the Palesean civilization will definitely execute Duke Antudil to appease the emotions of the lower-level ethnic groups, but it will take a long time. Execute Duke Antudil.
As a result, the news of the execution of Duke Antudier came so quickly.
"Is there any more detailed information? Who led the execution of Duke Antudier?" Fang Yuan asked.
"Mekkatorque is leading, and the information obtained from uncertain channels seems to be that Mekkatorque has a very tough attitude, and even almost forced Saint Reiss to issue an execution order." Zhao Anya said the information received.
This part of information mainly comes from the mechanical spies placed by the mechanical empire on the Templar planet.
In the past few hundred years, mechanical butlers and mechanical pets have become very popular in the noble circle of Palesi.
Therefore, the Machine Empire can obtain some rumors from the Palesi aristocratic circle.
These rumors usually come out of the chats of Palesi nobles, and there are many exaggerated elements, so the accuracy cannot be determined, and there is no way to confirm them one by one.
"Then what should we do now? After Palese amended the Divine Energy Act, those Palese rebels began to accept Zhao'an, and if Duke Antudil was executed, those low-level ethnic groups who had knelt for a long time and could not stand up would definitely There is no bloody rebellion." Ye Zheyu's tone was very serious.
Hearing this news, Fang Yuan didn't feel dignified, but was very happy.
Because the information revealed from the intelligence shows that Mekkatorque has already begun to persecute Saint Rhys Seratis.
As for the ruler of Palesai, Saint Reis Seratis, how could he endure the persecution of a general of ordinary background?
This is the point of contradiction.
Moreover, Fang Yuan could feel Mekkatorque's current state.
This is a sense of powerlessness that clearly has a way to save civilization, but the aristocracy is unwilling to cooperate, leading to the continued decline of civilization.
Obviously, Mekkatorque gradually lost control of his emotions in this sense of powerlessness. He was no longer interested in fighting with the noble factions and making compromises. He switched to a more direct method and forced him with a tough attitude.
This state is unworkable in the Palesian civilization.
In fact.
If the environment is similar, this situation may also appear in human civilization.
If there is a disagreement between Fang Yuan's decision-making and goals and the Supreme Council of Humanity, the two sides are at a stalemate, or even hinder each other, it will be the current state of the Palesean civilization.
The reason why human civilization can work towards the same goal is because the strongest and the Supreme Council maintain absolute trust and common ideals.
The Palesean civilization was different.
Mekkatorque wants to save civilization, but the noble factions have their own interests.
In the end, there were multiple voices within the Palesean civilization, and it was impossible to complete the unification.
Every time I think about it.
Fang Yuan was very lucky, luckily he got rid of Caesar Seratis first.
Caesar Seratis possessed sufficient military accomplishment and high courage, and was supported by many Palesi fleets.
If Caesar Celatis is given enough time to solve the faction problem within the Palesian civilization, it is possible to unify the faction system within the Palesean civilization and erupt into a renaissance.
It's a pity that Caesar Celatis was born at an untimely time.
If he had seized the kingship twenty years earlier, and had twenty years to kill the noble faction, the fate of the Palesean civilization would have been completely different.
Now only Mekkatorque is left struggling to support, and the fate of the Palesean civilization is already in jeopardy.
...
Three days later.
Templar Star, Abyss of the Forsworn.
On the Abyss of the Forsworn, there is a condemnation table, which is dealt with above the abyss.
The Palesi criminals who are executed will be pushed into the Abyss of Forsworn on the confession platform.
The Abyss of the Forsworn is the most severe punishment of the Palesean civilization, surpassing the death penalty.
In the religious culture of the Palesean civilization, criminals pushed into the Abyss of the Forsworn will be submerged in the darkness of atonement forever and never see the light.
To put it in a more vivid way, the Abyss of the Forsworn is equivalent to hell.
The execution time is approaching.
Mekkatorque personally brought the oath guards to the Noble Prison of the Templar, preparing to escort Duke Antudier to the crime stand.
The noble prison of the Holy Church only accepts nobles.
In Palesean civilization, however, nobles were rarely imprisoned.
Therefore, there are no criminals in the Noble Prison of the Holy Church.
The Noble Prison of the Holy Church is said to be a prison, but the building is brilliant and elegant, and it is more like a temple.
Mekkatorque led the oath guards, walked into the largest room in the noble prison of the Templar, and opened the door with a wave.
Duke Antudil was originally sitting on the seat in the hall of the room. When he saw the door open, he immediately jumped up and yelled at Mekkatorque: "Damn it, you have no right to condemn me!"
He had received the execution decision from the Supreme Council one day ago.
Therefore, he knew that today he would be pushed into the Abyss of Forsworn.
Therefore, when he saw Mekkatorque, his anger surged out, and he wanted to swallow Mekkatorque.
"Every life needs to be responsible for what it has done, and you are no exception." Mekkatorque said coldly.
If you say hate, Mekkatorque also hates this stupid nobleman in front of him.
It is because of his actions that civilization breaks out into civil war.
"This is your frame, what did I do wrong?! Instead, you, the shameless rebel, you threatened the Pope to convict me, you are the sinner who should go to the Abyss of the Forsworn!" Duke Antudier shouting.
"Don't you understand? No one framed your fate, it's just because you were too stupid to fall into the conspiracy of mankind." Mekkatorque said in a cold tone, and then waved his hand to let the oath guard go up, using The Duke of Antudier was chained, dragged out of the noble prison, and sent to the stand.
"I'm not guilty, this is all framed by you!" Duke Antudier refused to accept his fate, and howled loudly on the way to be escorted.
Mekkatorque really wanted to order the guards to gag him, but the Palesean civilization gave the nobles the power to justify themselves. If Duke Antudil was not allowed to speak out, it would be more like a premeditated frame-up.
Mekkatorque's expression sank, and he said coldly: "Before you went to lobby the Pope to suppress Andromeda β775, a general of the Triangular Fleet went to see you, right?"
When Duke Antudier heard this, his voice stopped, and his expression was a little strange.
"That's Caesar Celatis' confidant. The conspiracy designed by humans is for the nobles to launch a civil war first. And you foolishly stepped into this trap, lobbying the Pope to suppress Andromeda β775, which led to the tragedy. Your fate today is entirely because of your stupidity and arrogance..."
The more Mekkatorque said, the more angry he became: "If it weren't for your stupidity, civil war would not break out, and civilization would not decline so quickly.
"Your crime, even if pushed into the Abyss of the Forsworn, cannot atone for it.
"Shut your mouth. Give the nobles of Palesa a little dignity."
Duke Antudier was stunned for a while, and then began to struggle to retort: "How could the general of the Triangular Fleet be the confidant of Caesar Seratis? You find him, and I will confront him!"
Mekkatorque snorted coldly: "Resign yourself to fate. It was through this route that the intelligence team found out all the undercover agents that Caesar Seratis left behind on Templar.
"Although the undercover agents were cleared, their plot did succeed.
"Your stupidity led to Andromeda β775, which sparked a civil war.
"If one day, the Palesean civilization is destroyed, you will be the biggest sinner, and you will be nailed to the pillar of shame in the history of civilization forever, as a warning to future generations."
"You are talking nonsense! This is your frame!" Duke Antudil began to panic in his heart, because he felt that what Mekkatorque said might be true, even if he didn't want to believe it.
at noon.
Duke Antudil was escorted to the condemnation stand above the Abyss of the Forsworn.
The entire execution process is transmitted to various star fields in the Andromeda Galaxy by means of quantum communication.
All the low-level Palesi groups watched this scene.
This is the first time that the Palesian civilization has executed a noble because of the lower class.
This made these low-level groups of Palesi proud, as if they had pulled down a high-ranking nobleman.
The Duke of Antudier knelt on the confession platform, praying in the direction of the temple with a stern voice, arguing that he was wronged.
The radiance of the temple temple appeared, and a moment later, the crime of Duke Antudier was announced, and the radiance disappeared, as if the whole world had fallen into darkness.
The Duke of Antudier saw this scene and knew that the temple of the temple had convicted him. This is the final judgment and there will be no change.
"No!"
"No!"
He yelled in horror, unwilling to die like this.
Mekkatorque waved to the oath guard beside him.
Two oath guards grabbed the chains on Duke Antudier's energy body, lifted him up, and threw him into the abyss under his feet.
"No!"
The voice of Duke Antudier echoed in the Abyss of the Forsworn, continuously falling, and finally completely disappeared in the endless abyss.
Mekkatorque glanced at the abyss below, and after a while, he turned around and gave an order: "Issuing the order again, the bottom rebels, accept the order within one month, and be exempted from all crimes! If you don't surrender for more than a month, you will end up with Antu Like Duke Dill!"
