Chapter 274 Is There Still Law?

The Gate of Dawn hasn't been so lively for a long time.

In the past, believers would just kneel quietly in the square and pray silently in their hearts under the guidance of a single priest.

The Golden Dawn rarely holds religious activities, and the number of believers it attracts each year is limited, so for the existing believers, this simplest prayer is also very sacred.

Now, someone dared to talk nonsense here, which immediately aroused the anger of all believers.

The leading believer seemed to be a wealthy businessman. He was dressed luxuriously, and one of his mechanical hands was even inlaid with precious gems that were useless but only good-looking.

The rich businessman slammed his cane hard and said angrily, "Disrespectful! The Gate of Dawn is the eyes of the great God of Nothingness looking at the believers. Do you know what you are saying?"

Sean looked up in confusion and said, "Am I wrong to praise this place for its grandeur? Who are you?"

"I am just an ordinary believer--" When the rich businessman said this, he drew a circle on his forehead. This is a symbol of nothingness, but after drawing the symbol, his pious expression immediately became fierce, "I order you to kneel down and ask for forgiveness from the great God of Nothingness!"

While speaking, other believers had already surrounded him with unfriendly expressions, as if they would use force if Sean did not yield.

"What are you doing? Bullying the few with the many?" Sean looked around.

"You are disrespectful first!" An old woman said viciously.

She was very short and staggered when she walked, but she actually stood on tiptoe and stretched out her hands to put Sean's shoulders to push him down.

Sean struggled to break free, but the old woman fell back as if she had been kicked hard, with shock and hatred on her face.

"Pagan! How dare you do that! Kill him!"

No one looked at the old woman. The rich businessman shouted, and the believers who were ready to move rushed up without saying a word.

"Can this be a scam?" Sean smiled helplessly. He didn't even use any strength just now.

However, the believers were not prepared to listen to his sophistry. The leader had already pounced on him with his teeth bared.

Simen, who was guarding the Gate of Dawn, just watched the scene indifferently.

"You are not as cute as the big bald head of the Time Sect." Sean shook his head and blew a breath forward.

The vicious believers suddenly stopped in place. They looked around blankly, and then their eyes changed, and they rushed towards their companions viciously.

In the square of the Gate of Dawn, the believers who had originally shared the same hatred and bit each other.

Their eyes were red, and they used their hands and feet. Even if their limbs were broken by the people around them, they would open their mouths and bite the flesh of the people around them viciously.

They could not distinguish between enemies and companions at all, just like crazy beasts.

This sudden scene made the Simen who were watching bystanders look stern, and they immediately ran over and shouted angrily: "Stop!"

But no believers listened to them.

"Stop! Stop! Ah! Let go!" The leading Simen was still trying to stop him, but a believer had already rushed over and bit him hard.

Sean, the instigator, was left aside.

He narrowed his eyes slightly and noticed something wrong.

Instead of stopping me and blaming me first?

Interesting...

The group of Simen finally reacted. The leader inserted his arm into the ground, and countless vines emerged to tie up all the crazy believers. He looked at Sean angrily: "Pagans, dare to disturb the believers under the gaze of God! Catch them!"

Most of the crazy believers were ordinary people, while the Simen were all vetoers. After receiving the order, they rushed forward.

Sean blew another breath.

Something like worms began to swim under the skin of the Simen. They roared one by one, and then, no different from the believers before, they began to attack each other.

"This is more lively." Sean raised a corner of his mouth slightly.

"Silence, nothingness--"

The chaotic scene lasted only for a moment. After all, this is the Gate of Dawn, and other people rushed over immediately.

An old man in cardinal clothes muttered something in his mouth, and a gentle light emanated from his forehead. The crazy Simen and believers stood there and twitched violently.

A stream of red and black mist floated out of their bodies, and then all the crazy people fainted with their eyes rolling.

Sean showed a trace of surprise in his eyes. The people of the Golden Dawn were really alive.

Moreover, this old man looked like he was only at the upper level of the king level, but he could actually stop my lure... However, my lure has nothing to do with those red and black mists...

Sean keenly noticed that when the old man chanted the prayer, the light from the Gate of Dawn seemed to be much stronger.

However, in a short period of time, dense footsteps came from the other side of the Gate of Dawn.

The protectors rushed out aggressively and immediately surrounded Sean and his group in the middle.

The one-eyed middle-aged man in the lead was wearing exorcist's clothes. He bowed to the cardinal and said, "Your Excellency, what happened?"

The cardinal showed a compassionate look: "They have all been eroded... pitiful."

He looked at Sean: "Our believers just asked you to apologize, why did you do such a thing, so young but fell into darkness... May God forgive you."

Sean chuckled: "Apologise? I praised that this place is very grand, but is it a profanity?"

"How can our congregants be so irrational?" The cardinal shook his head regretfully. "Young man, you have to face your mistakes. Will so many people still wrong you? They are just impulsive, but Just to make you realize your own shortcomings under the gaze of the Lord, you use bad means to erode their minds..."

Sean interrupted the other party directly: "You guys play religion, do you have the same way of speaking?"

The exorcist was immediately furious: "Pagan, if you dare to do such a blasphemous act, according to the scriptures, I will escort you to the Tribunal of the Golden Dawn to accept God's punishment!"

As he spoke, his fierce aura had already exploded, Crimson Lower Level!

Under his leadership, the guardians have all taken out their weapons, and various elements are lingering around them. It seems that Sean will kill him if he dares to move.

"Is the Golden Dawn so overbearing? This empire belongs to you, or to His Majesty the Emperor." Sean said lazily.

The cardinal drew a symbol and said solemnly: "Of course it belongs to His Majesty, but whether according to the canon or the imperial law, you deserve this crime."

The defenders surrounded him, and at this moment, footsteps sounded again outside the door.

The security brigade wearing the uniforms of the Security Bureau came up.

"We were notified that someone was causing trouble at the Gate of Dawn?" The bearded police officer in charge looked serious.

The Cardinal saluted: "Mr. Fox, this young man deliberately blasphemed the Golden Dawn. According to the canon, he should be sent to the court of justice."

Fox quickly returned the salute: "It turns out to be Bishop Walker."

Then, he looked at Sean fiercely: "Boy, you did all this?!"

Sean rubbed his nose: "According to imperial law, this should be considered self-defense, right?"

"Self-defense? Humph." Fox snorted coldly.

However, he was a little confused in his heart. The Golden Dawn even sent out its guardians. This matter shouldn't be his turn. Why should he inform us?

It's just that, even though he's here, it's just a way of giving Bishop Walker face.

He pointed at Sean: "Raise your hands and surrender. The gentlemen of the Golden Dawn will escort you to the Inquisition."

As for the other party's identity, Fox didn't care.

Just kidding? How could he, a captain at the security bureau headquarters, not know the aristocratic children in the imperial capital?

I don’t know why this kid is so crazy when he comes to the Gate of Dawn.

Sean frowned slightly: "Mr. Police Officer, you were not at the scene and you just heard someone else's words and you convicted me? And even if I am guilty, according to imperial law, I should be escorted back to the Security Bureau to await conviction. Are you? Working for the Empire or working for the Golden Dawn?"

Fox's expression changed, and he said viciously: "Nonsense! Close the team and leave it to the Golden Dawn to handle itself."

"Is this how the Imperial Security Bureau operates? Imperial law stipulates that no one is allowed to use lynching, and everything is left to the official disposal. Don't you understand this?" Sean asked.

"The Tribunal is just letting you understand your sins. People of the Golden Dawn will naturally not break the law. I will deal with you on behalf of the official afterwards, haha."

After leaving such words, Fox led the people away without looking back.

The exorcist from the lower level of Crimson has already walked up, with a cold and stern voice: "Pagan, I give you ten seconds to surrender, ten, nine..."

Sean raised his hands simply: "Okay, I surrender."

"Hmph, you are wise enough to escort me back to the trial court."

Special shackles cuffed Sean's hands, and two defenders escorted him toward the interior of the Gate of Dawn.

The cardinal, who was lagging behind, glanced at the exorcist.

"Your Majesty Bishop?"

Bishop Walker's eyes were a little greedy: "That kid is weird, he must have connections with cultists..."

"Then still send him to the trial court?"

"Send him to the dungeon temporarily... and ask him about the sacrifice ceremony he knows about."

"yes."

…

"Where is the promised trial court?" Sean was sitting in the dungeon, looking around curiously.

The crimson lower level exorcist glanced at the person behind him, and the person walked up rubbing his hands.

He opened a huge tool box with all kinds of things in it.

After selecting for a while, the man took out a bunch of things and assembled them, finally turning into something that looked like a small decapitation rack.

He gave a nervous smile: "Do you know what this is? Just put your head in, it won't cut off your head, it will only slowly push your skull down..."

Sean burped: "It's a brain press."

The man was stunned for a moment, and then sneered: "You are well-informed... but what you don't know is what the sponge-looking thing on this piece of iron is..."

Sean came over and took a look: "It's a mutant species of deep lake seaweed. After it is dried in the sun and then soaked in a psychostimulant potion for ten days, it can cause a needle-pricking sensation on the scalp of those who come into contact with it."

The man was stunned again, then became angry and said: "Then this one below..."

"I'm familiar with this. The toxin produced by the big crack in Paradise City seems to have been re-processed. It may have the effect of amplifying pain?"

"you……"

"The thing in the middle should be the stimulation core, which can ensure that the victim will not faint and maintain long-term and unbearable pain."

"I……"

"By the way, your superpower should be metal activation? But you can't maintain it well. Rust will affect the overall balance, which can easily lead to permanent loss of the brain of the victim, and eventually become dementia. Punishment is a process, but it is still for It’s so unprofessional of you to pry open people’s mouths and make them stupid.”

Sean looked disgusted and sighed regretfully.

The man and the exorcist looked at each other, and finally grabbed Sean's collar angrily: "You will know later whether I am a professional or not. What is your sacrifice ceremony?"

"Just for this?"

"very good--"

The exorcist who was originally prepared to watch suddenly received the report. He frowned, ordered two people to stay, and then quickly left the dungeon.

"Baby, we can start." The interrogator showed a sinister smile.

Sean also smiled and nodded: "Let's get started."

His hands slipped out of the handcuffs at some point.

The interrogator was startled, and just as he was about to call out, he saw the other party's fingers twitching, and then his vision went dark.

…

"It can't be delayed..." Cardinal Walker stood in the crowd with a sad look on his face.

But at this time, he no longer had the right to speak.

Except for the lone Cardinal, the Archpriest, the second leader of the Golden Dawn, faced everyone.

A large number of people stood densely in the square at the Gate of Dawn, and the leader on the opposite side was actually a powerful figure in the military, General Shi Hai, known as General Iron and Stone.

Shi Hai's Guozi face was full of evil spirits: "High Priest, you still won't let me go?"

"General Shi Hai, that young man violated imperial law and canon, and should be sentenced. Is this the intention of the military or your personal opinion?" The high priest naturally refused to give in. This is the territory of the Golden Dawn, although the military The momentum is strong, but you cannot give in.

"General Shi Hai, Lord High Priest, don't be angry... We are all part of the empire, why should we be like this? However, since we have reached this point, we might as well let the young man come out and see what happened."

The high priest said calmly: "What if that young man is guilty?"

"Of course, you should be punished if you deserve it. His Majesty said that noble children should be treated the same way."

The speaker was a blond, middle-aged man with a distinctive black and white mustache.

And he is one of the three speakers of the current parliament, and he is the only one who can mediate between the two sides in this situation.

The high priest shook his head: "Forget it, Walker, bring the young man up."

"yes."

…

The exorcist walked quickly down the dungeon, and immediately saw Sean lying on the ground shaking, while the interrogator was putting away his torture instruments.

"how's it going?"

"I asked them all."

"Are others okay?"

"It's okay, at least there's nothing going on outside." The interrogator smiled sinisterly, but a look of confusion flashed across his eyes from time to time.

The exorcist didn't notice this. He looked at the person he left behind and waved his hand after receiving a look of approval.

"Take him up."
