Chapter 1345 Showdown

The torture ended one day later.

The execution ended one night later.

The rebel leaders, the core cadres of the rebels, and all their families were all pushed to the center of the town, and amid the screams, returned to the God of Creation.

Almost all the elves in the entire city witnessed this execution. Standing opposite the execution platform, I felt the scorching eyes shining on me from below.

Most of these looks were filled with fear and horror, mixed with a lot of incomprehension and confusion, and of course, anger.

The Elf Queen is kind. Although she did not abolish the death penalty, during her sole rule, no matter what the crime was, she was only jailed and never sentenced to death.

The punishment for a period of time was too light, causing people to forget about the death penalty.

As a result, the mentality of luck began to expand, and the desire to commit crime began to stretch out its arms and open its claws. The powerful nobles began to calculate how to obtain higher levels of power and wealth. Some of these careerists, in the name of freedom and With the slogan of independence, rebellion was planned.

If this incident was handled by the Elf Queen, it might just be imprisonment, corporal punishment, or deprivation of noble titles, which is a meaningless punishment mechanism.

A massacre resulted in many years of lingering memories and a long-lasting peace of mind.

Presumably, from the moment when blood splattered on the execution ground, to a few years, more than ten years, or even decades later, no one who has witnessed this scene will be able to forget the horror of this moment.

Take the magic airship back to the capital, Moonlight City.

On the way, Boss Ren used a dagger to cut the pieces of paper filled with words into small pieces, and threw them into the small stove on one side, watching them turn into swaying smoke and silent paper among the dancing flames. Ash.

"What is that?" I asked casually.

"List of family members of the dozens of rebels who were executed on the spot," he said calmly, while continuing to cut the paper with a dagger.

"I'm really sorry. I wasted a lot of your time and energy to collect these, but in the end, none of them were used." I apologized.

Boss Ren looked up at me, then lowered his head, cutting the paper, and said: "It's not used well, it shows that my master is still a compassionate person of flesh and blood."

"You don't sound like you're blaming me?"

"I don't blame you," Boss Ren said: "On the contrary, I feel that it is good to have a master like you. At least, I live more like a human being next to you."

After thinking for a while, he realized that he didn't understand what Boss Ren said, so he shook his head and said, "I don't understand."

Boss Ren said: "It is a very fascinating thing to control other people's lives and exercise this right at will. I was a little worried before, afraid that you would indulge in it. Now it seems that I am worrying too much."

Seeing that my eyes were still dazed, he continued: "You know, whether you are addicted to power or to killing, once you are addicted, you are no longer a human being, but a walking zombie driven by desire."

"Oh, listening to what you said, I kind of understand." I nodded and said, "So you are worried that I will be confused by the huge power given to me."

"exactly."

"Actually, you don't need to worry about this," I said. "In my opinion, rights are sometimes wonderful, but many times they are a trouble. They not only hinder progress, but also cover up the truth. It’s difficult for me to tell the truth from the false. Relatively speaking, I prefer the free life of an adventurer, facing the dungeon and killing monsters every day.”

The speed of the airship was very fast, and it arrived at Moonlight City in just forty minutes.

After getting off the airship, I quickly went to the Elf Palace, while Boss Ren quickly returned to the tree house.

The journey was uneventful and we arrived at the Fairy Queen's office, where she was reviewing a stack of documents.

"Grandma Queen, I'm back."

I knocked on the door and said.

"Well." She put down her pen, raised her head, and said with a smile, "How do you feel about this counterinsurgency trip?"

"Tired" I said, "My heart is tired, especially every time I think of the painful expressions of their family members, I feel even more tired."

The Fairy Queen nodded and said: "As I told you before, you did a good job this time. Although you executed dozens of bewitched civilians, you gained hundreds of thousands of civilians around Ivy City. Peace."

After hearing this, I couldn't help but frown: "Hundreds of thousands of people? That many?"

The Fairy Queen did not answer me directly, but guided me: "Xiaoyi, tell me, if the rebel forces capture Ivy City, what will they do next?"

"Recharge your batteries and continue to grow your power."

"So, how to increase the power?" The Fairy Queen asked again.

I thought for a moment, then my eyes suddenly widened and I said, "Could it be a coalition or invasion of surrounding towns?"

"Your analysis is absolutely correct," the Fairy Queen said seriously: "Join the surrounding towns that are willing to cooperate and launch attacks on other towns that are loyal to us. Even though Ivy City is surrounded by small towns, if we compromise and let them run wild, Maybe it will cause other towns to follow suit, and once that happens, a civil war will inevitably break out, and by then, it won’t be a matter of dozens of people losing their lives.”

".Been taught a lesson."

Although I don’t want to agree with the Fairy Queen’s analysis from the bottom of my heart, this is the fact. If one town is allowed to rebel, more towns will soon follow suit. Before long, Moonlight City will be in chaos, even worse than during the turmoil. Airui City is even worse!

I shudder at the thought.

"Xiao Yi," the Fairy Queen said, "You have contributed a lot to suppressing the rebellion this time. However, as for rewards, I won't give you any rewards yet."

"Forget it about rewards or whatever." I waved my hand and said, "It is my duty as an elder to counter rebellion."

"No, you should still be rewarded. It doesn't matter whether you are an elder or not." The Fairy Queen said: "The reason why I decided not to reward you for the time being is because you are going back to Dashai City soon."

"Eh? What for? I'm back this time, and I have no plans to go back for the time being."

"You will go back." The Fairy Queen shook the call crystal in her hand and said with a smile: "Your fiancée Cagalli is here to tell me that after you finish your work, you should rush back to Dashai City immediately to watch the Rose Legion of the Two Cities. battle."

"Two Cities Rose Legion!" It suddenly dawned on me. Really, this rebellion had touched me so much that I had even forgotten that there was going to be a battle between the Moonlight City Rose Legion and the Dasha City Rose Legion.

Thinking of this, I quickly asked: "When will the competition start?"

"Two days later," the Fairy Queen said, "Nine o'clock in the morning."

That's it, take the airship today, go to Balan City tomorrow, rest for a day, and then watch this battle of the century, which can also be regarded as a fateful showdown.

Is it the Rose Legion of Dasha City that wins, or the Rose Legion of Moonlight City that is stronger?
