Royal Gold Medal County Magistrate

The ceremony officially began.

The Archbishop formally recited scriptures according to the rules and regulations of the Taifu Church.

Then, the clerk of the Religious Inquisition read out the verdict: "Heretic Biller preaches heresy... By the power of the Almighty Father, Son, and Holy Spirit, and the authority of our clergy, we sentence you to be burned at the stake to wash away your sins... Do you repent?"

Karami had already made up his mind, but to cooperate with Zheng Hui's performance, he put on a bitter and resentful expression.

His eyes widened, and he shouted righteously at the people below: "Repent? I repent your mother's ass!"

"The King was bled to death! He was deceived by the Church. There are no evil demons at all!"

"You bunch of idiots, you know that bleeding will kill even when slaughtering livestock, so why blame evil demons when it comes to humans? Bullshit, pure bullshit!"

"Can your lies deceive for a while, can they deceive for a lifetime! The Taifu Church is a bunch of hypocritical trash, and the Pope is an old fool..."

Karami got into the groove, becoming more and more arrogant, and the crowd below gasped.

Absolutely a heretic, and never seen one so arrogant!

The Archbishop and the clerk, who were closest, had faces that were already eggplant-colored. The Archbishop frantically waved his hand downwards, summoning people forward.

Karami was still spraying wildly: "Aren't you curious about where all the little boys who go missing every year go!?"

"You know in your hearts, but you're all holding back, right! Okay, I'll say it today..." "Slap!"

Before the people below could come up, the Archbishop jumped forward and slapped Karami hard in the face.

This hit was accurate and ruthless, and blood flowed down the corner of Karami's mouth.

Karami stared coldly at the Archbishop with the courage to face death: "Why won't you let me speak!?"

"Perhaps you are more afraid when you read out the verdict than I am when I hear it."

"How many lies have you woven? Let me tell you, there is no geocentric theory in this world, the earth under our feet revolves around the sun..."

"Slap!" Another slap hit Karami hard in the face.

The Archbishop was furious and frantically called for manpower from below.

Although he had suffered two heavy blows in a row, the grievances accumulated in the dungeon for seven consecutive days had not been vented at all.

Karami roared: "Do you know what science is! Fire can destroy me, but it will surely illuminate the truth. Darkness is about to pass, dawn is coming, the truth will eventually... Ah~~!"

Just as he was shouting enthusiastically, the helpers below finally came up, holding a special pair of pliers and ruthlessly stuffed them into Karami's mouth, accurately clamping his tongue.

The Inquisition official holding the pliers stretched outwards with force, and Karami dared not force himself to speak anymore.

Tears streaming down his face, he begged for mercy in a muddled voice.

The little King and Duke Alvis were completely shocked, muttering: "He's crazy! He's completely crazy! How dare he say such things..."

The Archbishop was so angry that he jumped up and down, roaring: "Light the fire! Burn this heretic to death!!!"

At the same time.

Zheng Hui and Lai Gou'er drew their knives and violently attacked, instantly holding the unprepared little King and Duke Alvis hostage.

Immediately, he shouted again: "Do it!!!"

At this moment, time seemed to freeze in the square.

From Karami's high-pitched heretical remarks to the King and Duke being taken hostage, this sudden change was a bit too much for people to react to.

However, when the first shout of action sounded, the ambushed Da Jing sailors also shouted out immediately.

The sound of simultaneous action instantly spread throughout the entire square.

The sailors hidden in the first row immediately lifted their headscarves, drew their knives, and broke through the soldiers' defense line under the execution platform.

No one had expected that such a change would occur just by simply dealing with a heretic.

Therefore, the current deployment was arranged according to routine, and there were not many people at all!

Especially with the King and Duke being held hostage, the soldiers' attention was still on the viewing platform on the other side.

Caught off guard, more than a dozen people rushed out and quickly killed the soldiers and Inquisition officials under the execution platform, causing chaos.

Then, a sailor rushed to the stage in a few steps, stabbing to death the Inquisition official who was still clamping Karami's tongue at the first moment, and cutting off the ropes that bound him.

Karami's eyes were filled with tears, and he endured the severe pain and shouted: "Catch that fat one! He is the Archbishop, don't kill him!"

Seeing several pairs of eyes with green light looking at him, the Archbishop trembled all over and prepared to run away.

But in the next second, several long knives were simultaneously placed on his neck!

The surrounding crowd had already become a mess, scattering and fleeing.

Looking at the chaos in front of him, Duke Alvis forced himself to calm down and said through gritted teeth: "Why? Just for a lowly sailor, you dare to disregard the relations between the two countries?"

Lai Gou'er coerced him towards the chaotic crowd, and now some brothers had begun to pick up people and retreat.

He wanted to rush to get close, and said as he walked: "No... he may have been a lowly sailor before. But now he is a citizen of my Da Jing, and also my comrade-in-arms. He has also been a Jinyiwei, do you know what a Jinyiwei is? That is my eldest brother's power, the face of Da Jing."

"Just for this reason, you want to start a war with Fika and the entire Church!?" Duke Alvis was extremely angry.

"This reason is enough. Do you know what kind of person my eldest brother is? He can be an enemy of the powerful for the sake of the people... and so can I." Lai Gou'er pressed the Duke's waist with a sharp knife, and led the people to climb onto the horses that had been prepared for him.

After rescuing Karami, a group of sailors left quickly. Most of the surrounding people had dispersed, and a large number of Fika officers and soldiers had quickly arrived in the square.

With the King and Duke in hand, they dared not go forward.

Zheng Hui and Lai Gou'er were backed by the Da Jing sailors.

The two sides advanced and retreated, and no one dared to act rashly.

The leading officers and soldiers shouted something, but Lai Gou'er remained unmoved.

Until he passed a hutong, he stopped.

Zheng Hui wondered: "Why did you stop?"

Lai Gou'er smiled and said: "Going straight here leads directly to the port. We can't let them follow us all the time. You'll know later."

Duke Alvis was shocked and angry: "Why did you stop? Do you want to reconcile? Now you let me and His Majesty go, you can take the people away, I promise not to pursue..."

Lai Gou'er poked him twice with the tip of his knife and said in a low voice: "Robbery, hand over all the money on you."

"Robber! You damn robber! You dare to rob money when disaster is imminent?" The Duke showed an unbelievable expression, but obediently took out a few silver coins from his arms.

Lai Gou'er took the silver coins and put them in his arms, and then said: "Let them retreat, retreat twenty steps and I will let you go."

"Retreat! Retreat twenty steps! Otherwise, His Majesty's life is in danger." Duke Alvis closed his eyes and shouted painfully.

Now he seemed to be able to do nothing but cooperate.

The little King had been frightened like a puppet on a string, at the mercy of others.

Zheng Hui took the knife and pretended to rub it against his neck a few times.

The pursuing officers and soldiers were forced to retreat twenty steps slowly.

At this moment, Lai Gou'er shouted: "Brothers, come out!"

As soon as he finished speaking, on both sides of the hutong entrance, more than twenty Da Jing sailors rode horses, holding torches, and leading cattle slowly out of the shadows.

More than twenty cattle were lined up, blocking the main street, facing the foreign officers and soldiers.

A bad feeling suddenly rose in Duke Alvis's heart...

"Light the fire!!!"

The sailors immediately lowered the torches and lit the tails of the cattle that had been soaked in kerosene in advance.

"Moo~~!!!"

The cattle instantly turned red-eyed, roared in unison, and rushed forward... The streets became a mess.

Watching the pursuers overturned and horses falling, Lai Gou'er pulled hard and knocked the Duke off the horse.

"Brother Zheng, let's go!"

"You kid is smart enough, but are these cows enough?"

"There's another wave behind, hurry up!"

......

The Da Jing fleet slowly sailed away from the port.

On the deck, Zheng Hui and Lai Gou'er silently watched Karami whip a fat man.

The fair and tender buttocks had been whipped with bloody marks.

Although it was a bit cruel, Karami's expression was full of excitement: "Say it! The Pope is an idiot!"

"The Pope is an idiot!" The Archbishop wailed with tears.

"Science and technology are the primary productive forces!"

"Science and technology are the primary productive forces!"

"Science is the best antidote to fanaticism and ranting..."

"That's enough, this fat man is useless, let's throw him away, it's a waste of food on the ship." Zheng Hui said.

Karami stopped regretfully.

He hadn't finished shouting the slogans he remembered at Dongjiao University.

Looking at the Archbishop who had fallen into a coma, Karami stepped forward: "Brother Gou, lend a hand."

Lai Gou'er nodded, and the two of them, one at the head and one at the tail, threw the Archbishop into the sea with a whoosh.

The whole person presented a perfect parabola, buttocks entering the water...

After dealing with it, Karami looked around and asked: "Where's Xiaoshuai?"

"Xiaoshuai, he... went to start a business."

...

The port was in chaos, a group of foreigners were shouting everywhere, wanting to set sail to pursue.

A figure wrapped in a headscarf lay beside the wall of a house.

Looking at the departing ship, his eyes were full of tears.....

...
