I really don't want to hang up

Chapter 106 One Is Greater Than Infinity
From Al's understanding, it was difficult for Mr. Luden to understand the meaning of self-respect.

Fortunately, breaking the defense is only an instant thing.

The people in the Inquisition Office quickly controlled their emotions and regained their previous calmness.

"Mr. Luden, you need to participate in a trial tomorrow night. People of the Holy Family, accuse you of being a demon to the Inquisition"

After listening to the other party, Luden gritted his teeth and said,
"I knew someone was slandering me behind my back!"

Listening to his words, everyone fell into silence again.

With what Luden has done, it's hard to call it slander.

Luden turned to ask, angrily asked,

"Is there no price for false accusation? I remember that it is written in the sacred law that an innocent body should not suffer innocent injustice! Should the person who reported me as a devil also be investigated, what if he is a devil? !"

This aspect can be regarded as letting Luden understand.

The people of the Heresy Tribunal had expected it, bowed slightly, and said politely,

"We have our own workflow. If you are innocent, the Holy Family will pay the corresponding price."

Having said that, Luden felt better.

If the other party is willing to convert this price into Miso and directly compensate Luden, he will be more comfortable.

"okay, I get it."

Luden nodded, making a look to see off the guests,
"I'll be there as promised."

This trial, within his expectations, the way to survive the trial is also very simple:
During the entire process of raising money, do not do anything illegal.

On this point, Justice Gured had already given Luden a vague hint.

The holy code was watching him all the time.

As long as the process is completely legal, Luden will be invincible and will not be sent to the gallows.

How much Miso he can keep is another topic.

The people from the Inquisition Office stood at the door, but did not move.

Lu Deng raised his brows slightly, don't you guys know how to read the air? If you don't leave, it will be a bit impolite.

"there's one more thing."

The other party took out something from his arms, but it was not a twisted rope, but a strange bird mask.

The man took two steps forward, put the strange bird mask on the table, and then stepped back,
"Mr. Luden, the presiding judge likes you very much and is willing to give you a chance to join the Inquisition. If you choose to join, no one can judge you."

In the Divine State, there are only some special beings who have the extrajudicial immunity of the divine code.

The Holy Family will not be exiled or deprived of citizenship unless they are judged to be demons.

Justices, great men of learning, cannot be found guilty without an assembly of citizens.

Finally, there is the Inquisition.

It has always been only the Inquisition that judges others, and no one else judges the Inquisition.

Now, this road is in front of Lu Deng.

"If you choose this path."

Luden fell into deep thought, and after a while, he said something inexplicable,
"I will not be able to give blessings to the world."

The Heresy Inquisition can only send blessings to the Holy Family.

If Lu Deng joins it, even if he is in a high position, the scope of sending blessings will still be the same.

He couldn't easily give up the entire forest just for a few big trees!

Lu Deng has always believed that everyone is equal before blessings.

He really likes to send blessings, I cried to death.

The other party's proposal was indeed attractive enough.

but,

One of Luden's favorite things to do is to say NO to people who think they are better than themselves, just like Mr. Da'an.

"I reject."

The person standing outside the door was not surprised, but spoke again,
"The chief judge guessed that you would refuse, and this mask is temporarily placed here with you. Let it be the goodwill of the Inquisition.

At any time, you can choose to wear a mask and become one of us. "

After speaking, he saluted again and disappeared into the night.

"Heretical Inquisition, the door is always open for you."

In the last paragraph, he told a bad joke that wasn't funny.

【The Goodwill of the Inquisition】

Shenbang has four things that don't exist:
The wisdom of the Senate, the generosity of the Palace of Greed, the demons of the House of the Holy See, the goodwill of the Inquisition.

People have gone.

The three people in the room fell silent at the same time.

It was hard for Awu to understand what happened, but the innate temperament of the other party made him instinctively afraid.

Al's emotions were a little more complicated.

She is a holy descendant, and she has been living under the shadow of the Heretic Tribunal since she was born, and was even sent to the gallows by the other party.

Al will never forget what happened on the gallows.

If it hadn't been for Mr. Luden, she would have been hanged.

Any holy descendant has a deep-seated fear of the existence of the Heresy Trial.

The only person who can remain relaxed and calm is Lu Deng.

He stared at the mask for a long time before opening his mouth to break the silence,
"This mask is more advanced than the one he wears?"

Al: .
Is this something advanced or not? !
Al never expected that Mr. Ludden would still be in the mood to compare at this f*cking time.

To be strong in one's life belongs to yes.

"Okay, it's time to rest."

Lu Deng stood up, put the mask on the table into his arms, and the suppressed emotions in the small building were diluted a lot, and the other two subconsciously wanted to forget what happened just now.

"Awu, if it's not necessary, just light a candle at night."

Mr. Luden urged, and Awu kept every word in his heart.

He is definitely not trying to save money, but to prevent fires and have a good sense of urgency.

It must be so!
Al, who ascended the stairs holding the candlestick, rolled his eyes in the dimness.

This guy is pure stingy
Last night, Shenbang was fine.

The next day, Luden had a rare late sleep and didn't get up until noon.

Awu and Al, as usual, were doing their own things and didn't bother Mr. Luden.

He needs to rest.

During this period of time, there were too many things for Luden to think about. Not only did he need to study the existing forces of the Divine State, but he also had to predict every step of each force, and while protecting himself, he should distribute as many blessings as possible.

The first half of the battle came to an end, so Luden naturally had to seize the hard-earned time to recuperate.

Champagne at halftime, no.

Desperate at halftime, all right.

Until the tranquility of the small building was broken by an uninvited guest.

"Where's Mr. Luden?"

Scholar Gulei came to visit again, this time, not in a personal capacity, but with a mission.

The sleepy-eyed Luden washed his face with clear water, Gu Lei's words got into his ears,

"For some reason, the academics have decided to convene a collective meeting to discuss whether to support you in this trial, and you need to be present in person."

Lu Deng, who had come to his senses, acted very calmly.
"it is good."

He washed up briefly, asked Awu to pack a piece of food, and got into the carriage that came to pick him up.

On the carriage, Luden settled his brunch, and even had the leisure to let Gulei relax a bit.

"It'll be all right."

The worried look on Gu Lei's face did not lighten in the slightest, but intensified instead.

This has never happened before!

The Hanged Man brought money and food for the scholars and justices, and helped the victims.

Afterwards, even some hanged people will be regarded as abandoned children and hanged by the Inquisition.

But never before, the university scholars held a collective meeting to discuss!

Standing on the sidelines is already the most indifferent thing academics do.

And today's group meeting, at worst, will even support the Holy Family's denunciation of Luden!

This is no longer abandonment, but betrayal!
Gu Lei never thought that things would develop to this point.

Luden was not surprised.

He believes that in the past [-] years, no Hanged Man has ever acted like him.

It wasn't just the Holy Family that Lu Deng harmed, he also harvested the rich businessmen and middle class in the city. Anyone with a little money fell into the trap of the blessing contract.

Fett Rackley, is the best example.

In other words, the Holy Family's denunciation of Lu Deng, in a sense, even represented the hearts of the people!

The Holy Family pleads for the people?

Something unseen in eight hundred years!
During this period of time, for some reason, there are more and more absurd things in Shenbang!

The carriage stopped, and Lu Deng got out of the carriage. Guided by the scholar, he walked into a trial hall through the side door.

In front of Luden was a round table with a scale placed on it.

The left side of the balance scale has been pressed with twelve weights, while the right side is empty, and the balance will naturally tilt to the left.

On the round table, besides the balance, there is only one weight left,
Luden raised his head slightly and moved his gaze to the top.

The domed ceiling is engraved with the provisions of the sacred code, and the entire room is under the gaze of the sacred code.

Luden looked down further,

This circular room is divided into upper and lower levels, like a round theater.

And Luden is on the stage of the theater. He is the judged and his own defender.

On the second floor above his head, nine seats formed a circle, evenly falling in all directions, looking around Luden.

Eight people sat on these nine seats, each wearing a black mask, and their rankings were marked with white paint:

two three four five
Not one.

According to their body shapes, it is not difficult for Luden to recognize the three and six of the great scholars.

University Scholar Six even reached out to him and greeted him without hesitation.

In this group meeting, only eight scholars attended, and their final vote will determine Luden's fate.

If there is a 4:4 vote, the result will be sent to the university student, and the other party will cast a key vote.

The door behind Luden slowly closed.

Group meeting officially begins.

Without any nonsense, without any ceremony, the three great scholars spoke,

"The Twelve Holy Family families proposed to the university students that each of them could take in 5000 more civilians, pay for all the temporary residence rights of the other party in the Divine State, and provide enough food without asking for anything in return. The Holy Family has only one condition .Loudon Y. Microgood, the Holy See family wants you dead."

After finishing speaking, the third scholar paused,
"You may begin your defense, Luden Y. Weigold."

Nodding to the other party, Lu Deng took a step forward, looked around, and said slowly,
"I'm not defending myself, or fighting for anything, I'm just stating a fact."

In front of the eight great scholars, Lu Deng behaved very calmly, as calm as a gentleman.

He didn't pretend, and he didn't have the upper body of a showman, but from the bottom of his heart, he really thought so.

His righteousness comes from a firm belief in his heart, a belief stronger than gold.

Looking across the eight scholars, Lu Deng said in a deep voice,
"No matter how many lives are taken, an innocent person cannot be killed"

Regardless of the promise of the Holy Family, how many civilians they can take in, how much money they are willing to take, and how much food they pay.
None of this could be a reason to kill Luden.

Luden is innocent.

The holy code does not allow an innocent person to die because of this.

As Luden said, he is not defending himself, he disdains to debate classics.

He directly pointed out that if he agreed to the request of the Holy Family today, every Hanged Man would encounter the same situation as Luden in the future!

Every Hanged Man will be killed by the Holy Family.

Killing all the hanged men will further inflate the appetite of the Holy Family, and they will kill more innocent people until they go to the final perdition, the final madness.

The initiator, there is no future?

Once the cornerstone of the sacred code is eroded, the destruction of the kingdom of God will not be far away.

After speaking, Luden picked up the only weight he had at hand and gently placed it on the balance.

Under the eyes of many great scholars, the left side full of weights slowly lifted, while the right side with only one weight sank!
On the scale of the divine law, one is greater than infinity.
