Chapter 1654 The Dust Has Settled
"Will Mr. Cruze really be okay?" Shanamia said worriedly while sitting on the throne. All the people have gone to take refuge. The fire in the explosion area has been extinguished. The knights who made trouble have been arrested. The ground forces of the Promise Corps are helping Free to restore normal order, clean up the scene, and count casualties. Only Cruze, who was taken away by Granton, has not returned, so Shanamia can't help but worry.
On the one hand, Granton is the biggest culprit. If he can't be caught, then everything done before is meaningless; on the other hand, Cruze is the messenger of the Promise Corps, and from the contact, Cruze's status in the Promise Corps is very high. If anything happens, will the Promise Corps still accept Free?
"Please rest assured, Lord Cruze will not have any accidents." El Elf said very confidently. Although he didn't know how many times he had answered, he was still very patient.
"But..."
"Here it comes."
"Huh?"
Shanamiya and the others were stunned for a moment, and then immediately ran out of the palace. Just when they ran to the palace gate, they saw [God's Will Dominieren (Dominant)] landing in front of them, and the body of Granton... Sorry, I don't know where it is, but [God's Will Dominieren (Dominant)] seems to have something in his hand. As it bends down and spreads its palm on the ground, people can see it clearly.
"Granton!?"
Shanamiya and the others were horrified, because Granton no longer had any of his former ambitions and calm majesty. Granton, lying flat on the palm of [God's Will Dominieren (Dominant)], twitched from time to time, his face was haggard, his pupils disappeared, and drool was flowing from the corners of his open mouth. His lower body... even emitted a foul smell.
"Sorry for coming back late, Lord Shanamia, Lord Dania, I was too excited and played for a while longer." The cockpit door of [Dominieren (Dominion)] opened, Cruze jumped to the ground, and walked towards Shanamia and Dania Gad with elegant steps.
"Lord... Cruze, what... what is this..." Shanamia's eyes went back and forth between Granton and Cruze, her eyes full of fear.
"Well..." Cruze touched his chin and grinned, "... Don't worry about these trivial matters."
"This is a trivial matter!?" Shanamia and others roared in their hearts. They really couldn't imagine how cruelly Granton had been tortured to become like this.
"Don't worry, Lord Shanamia, Granton is still alive..."
"It's better to kill him!" Shanamia and others shouted in their hearts at the same time.
"...to be able to stand trial normally, I personally suggest waking up all the people of Free, then reading out his crimes in front of everyone, then presenting evidence, and finally holding a public trial. This matter still needs you to do it yourself."
"Ah? Oh, that's no problem...wait! Trial? Grundon? But he looks like this..." Shanamia was in a trance. Grundon's current state... is indeed still alive, but it can't be said to be alive. In this state, he has to be sent to all the people for a public trial. Isn't this more excessive than killing someone, resurrecting him once, and then killing him again?
Wait! All the people?
"Mr. Cruze, you said... wake up all the people?" Shanamia looked at Cruze and asked.
"Yes, Your Excellency Shanamia, after all, such a bad armed rebellion has occurred in the country, and the people naturally need to know the truth and the final result, and... they must be satisfied." Cruze answered as a matter of course.
"But now Free..."
"If Lady Shanamia is worried that Free's resources are not enough for the people of Free, then don't worry. Our support forces will arrive in Free tomorrow at the latest. In addition to the necessary escort forces, the rest are all transport ships carrying supplies, and there are also a group of engineering forces responsible for post-disaster reconstruction."
"This..."
Shanamia was stunned by Cruze's combination punches. Isn't this too efficient? Granton has just been arrested, and the support for Free is about to arrive. It's a seamless connection. Isn't Cruze afraid that she will break the contract?
However, Shanamia saw the MS that replaced the Knights to guard the palace, and naturally understood why Cruze was not worried about her breach of contract. In fact, her situation has not changed at all, but the control of the palace has changed from Free's rebellious Knights to the rapid reaction force of the Promise Legion, not to mention...
The necessary escort force that Cruze just mentioned.
It seems to be really comforting, but Cruze is also reminding Shanamia that we have done what we should do, and don't have any crooked thoughts now~!
"Your Majesty." Dania Gad also reminded Shanamiya from behind that she couldn't mess around now.
"Well, I understand, Chief of Staff, first appease the civil servants, and then cooperate with our allies to deal with the aftermath."
Although Dania Gad was fake dead, he was "dead" to outsiders. His sudden appearance would definitely cause some turmoil. As the person involved in this matter and also the Chief of Staff of Free, this matter must be left to him to deal with the aftermath.
"Yes, Your Majesty."
"Fulu, go and invite the Chief of Staff out. The culprit has been arrested. There is no need to wrong the Chief of Staff."
"Yes, Your Majesty."
"And...Ovan." Shanamia looked at Ovan Ranks, who was standing respectfully behind him with a complicated expression. This paladin was originally a trusted subordinate of Granton.
"Your Majesty, please give your order." Ovan Ranks didn't care about Shanamia's strange look at all. He knelt on one knee respectfully, put one hand on his chest and saluted, waiting for Shanamia's order.
"Take Granton away, imprison him, and interrogate him to see if there are any fish that have escaped the net. All those who participated in this rebellion must not be spared." Originally, Shanamia planned to let Fulu Monroe do this, but she has a lot of things to do now, but too few people. Ovan Ranks was originally Granton's man, and now he is controlled by Cruze. His identity is too complicated and sensitive. Originally, he was not going to be used, but the reality forced Shanamia to bite the bullet and use Ovan Ranks.
"Yes, Your Majesty."
"Regarding the fish that slipped through the net, Lord Shanamiya can rest assured. We have already investigated all the people who participated in the rebellion, as well as those who were attached to Granton but did not play a role in the rebellion. We have already arrested and dealt with them. Here is the list, please take a look."
"This..." Shanamiya was stunned. The list in her hand was a bit long, and... so heavy, so heavy that Shanamiya could not lift it because it was too long. "Mr. Cruze, this list..."
"Please rest assured, this list has been repeatedly confirmed by us. The circumstances are light and heavy. We also have detailed records. We will never wrongly accuse a good person, nor will we let a bad person go."
"...Really? Then Mr. Cruze has worked hard. Please give me a satisfactory result in the end."
"No problem." Cruze stroked his chest and bowed. When he looked up again, the smile at the corner of his mouth scared Shanamiya back two steps. "Then... please prepare, Lord Shanamiya, and go to Earth with me in three days."
