Fairy’s Box - Chapter 941

The night cloud is trying to resist the harassment of the rising sun. The sun quietly shows its outline from behind the clouds. The dark blue sky is occupied by a magnificent golden halo, and the dividing line between day and night is clearly presented in the sky.

The city, which was littered with corpses, was as silent as a cemetery at this time, and the smoke and dust of the burning corpses filled the streets, like a layer of morning mist. Hiluda in the heavy curtains overlooked the courtyard, and the sun shines through the smoke in the courtyard, revealing a haze atmosphere.

At this time, the wall that led from the courtyard to the street had been demolished, and there was a wide shadow in the dimness.

Fragments of wood and stones are piled up into hills, towering upwards, fixed in the shape of dams with thick wooden stakes, and at the end of the **** is a relatively flat site. Forty-two gallows stand evenly on it. Rough wood and hemp ropes are used to hang a group of women in Chinese clothes high up and display them in the bright sky. Each of them used to be a high-ranking and powerful high-ranking official, and now, in order to quell public grievances, they are ready to use their heads to repay the Queen’s past favor.

In ordinary gallows, a pedal is placed under the feet of the prisoners, so that they stand on a high platform suspended in the air. When the torture is used, the pedals are directly removed, and the weight of the prisoners falling from high altitude is used to tear their necks. But now Osseton can’t make such a professional gallows, and can only use three ropes instead of pedals, hang them in the air, and suffer a little more.

According to the custom, in order to prevent the prisoners from yelling and scolding, their Adam’s apple and vocal cords have been cut, and the anesthetic has been poured into them.

There were not many onlookers around, most of them were the city defense troops who went out of the city to search for criminals and failed to find the devil disaster but chose to wait and see because of cowardice.

“The criminal who brings disaster to the country!”

“Moth! Coward!”

“Hang them!”

The cowardly guilt coupled with the repression of fear of sin made this group of people show incomparable anger, and they picked up the rubble and threw them on the prisoners mercilessly, drenching them with blood.

“Execution!”

Xiluda ordered, the dim light and the heavy curtain made everyone unable to see her expression, and the silhouette of the figure cast on the curtain was like a lifeless sculpture.

“As ordered!”

Jiegufrey took the lead, then glanced at Miemi.

“…”

The latter nodded, stared at the figure on the gallows, and spread out his fingers to draw lightly.

Whoosh-!

Countless flashes were densely woven into arcs, sweeping across the execution ground like a torrential rain. In an instant, all the hemp ropes were broken in the blink of an eye, except for the rope around the prisoner’s neck.

pat–!

The prisoners’ bodies fell from a height at the same time, and the weight of their bodies fell on the ropes, which instantly snapped their necks, and lost their vigor after a few twitches. There was silence around the execution ground, followed by cheers like a landslide and a tsunami.

…

At the end of the street, in an abandoned clock tower, behind the translucent carved wall, two figures stood side by side, observing the thunderous execution ground from top to bottom.

“You could almost put that woman in a desperate situation, but you helped her to stabilize her position.” Beryl looked in the direction of the hall, her eyes turned sideways. He looked at him in surprise.

“What good is it for me to put her in a desperate situation?” Yale looked at the corpses with a calm expression, but a hint of satisfaction appeared in his eyes.

“How can you control her will without driving her crazy and breaking her down?”

“That’s the difference between you and me.”

The black-haired knight withdrew his gaze, did not answer her question, turned and walked towards the stairs, his figure gradually dipped into the darkness.

When you control a person’s will, what you get in the end is just a puppet, but when you control a person’s desire, she will do her best to exert herself and give you rich rewards.

…

The Ossedon Demonic Disaster Incident can be said to be one of the worst disasters in the North Sea countries. The incompetence and ugliness shown by the upper and lower bureaucrats is even more disgusting, causing an uproar among the people. Even Queen Hiluda, who was usually kind and wise, rarely showed an iron fist and executed forty-two officials of all sizes. And it’s all brutal hangings that don’t give them any noble decency.

The Queen’s handling method has won her a lot of people’s hearts, and the people’s evaluation of her is straight up. Most people think that Goddess Freya is innocent and upright, and those worms who blind her are really guilty.

At the same time, the image of the seven guardian stars has been improved. They have been portrayed as heroes in the official propaganda, and they are the able-bodied men who finally assist the queen in quelling the evil disaster.

Although things are like this, it is an unprecedented favor for the guardian star who has a low status and is accustomed to being ostracized and bullied. The seven people were naturally grateful and could not wait to repay them with death.

However, killing dozens of high-ranking officials in one go, such a major event will definitely be accompanied by a certain degree of shock.

…

After leaving Osseten, Hiluda and his party stopped for a while in Copenhagen to arrange the aftermath of the magic disaster.

The queen’s couch is an ancient temple, halfway up the mountain, hidden in a forest of flowers and swimming pools, and it looks like it’s hanging in the air from below. Although the climate is cold, the surrounding area of ​​the temple is still a lush blue. Under the blessing of magic, the seasons are fixed in the midsummer time, maintaining a constant tranquility and elegance.

“…”

The window was open, and Xiluda sat on the pure white windowsill, leaning on his side, looking out at the clear full moon outside the window.

The moonlight passed through the observation deck on the top of the mountain in the distance, pulling out a long and narrow black shadow, the cold night wind blew on her body, and the long silver hair was rippling.

This quiet atmosphere did not make her feel at peace. Xiluda had a strong sense of crisis, which had been haunting her since the last assassination.

“Who are you……”

The queen stroked her most beloved ring (The Lord of the Rings), patrolling the dark corners around her, as if searching for some invisible existence.

She had a feeling that there was an invisible door hidden around her, and behind the door was an immeasurable darkness like an abyss.

Through the darkness, a pair of eyes stared at her all the time.

Xiluda could clearly feel that strong presence, just around, not far away. That feeling is as if a huge palm is holding up the earth and getting close to the sky, you can’t see it, but you know what’s going on.

She wanted to tell others about this feeling, but for some reason, whenever she opened her mouth, she always said something else.

The more special situation is that Hiluda did not feel any malice from the darkness. Yes, he was forcing himself, he was guiding himself, but he released a kind of kindness in a strange way. This hidden power helped him once, and apart from remaining mysterious, there was no tendency to control her.

Xiluda didn’t like this feeling, but she wasn’t very repulsive-she had adapted to being a puppet since she was a child.

Just as the Queen was staring at the bright moon in a trance, a drop of cold water fell on the back of her fair hand, causing her to wake up suddenly. In a trance, a dangerous signal was released from the mountains in the distance.
