Tap... Tap...

Karen walked up to the soldier, took a deep breath, and watched the soldier put on the shackles respectfully.

"bring it on."

Caroline stretched out her white hands.

"Yes, Lord Karen."

The soldier gently locked the shackles, which had almost no binding effect, on Karen's wrist. At this moment, Karen finally looked like a subdued prisoner.

But it's just a little resemblance in appearance. In terms of temperament, the emotions contained in Karen's eyes still make the soldiers dare not look at each other.

They know what they're doing, but they can't change anything.

In this way, the soldier walked ahead, and Karen followed behind, not like a prisoner, but more like a soldier invited her out of prison.

----

Snapped!

The hammer hit the table and made a loud noise. The elderly nobleman looked down at Karen, while the ordinary people not far away who were isolated by the soldiers with the blockade were talking about it.

"It's Lord Karen."

"Lord Kallen..."

The crowd looked at the woman on the stage with worried eyes. Her white hair was scattered behind her back. Without a little care, she no longer had the braided appearance.

But just standing there, she felt an inexplicable pressure.

The judge's eyes twitched.

Karen's personal power is too terrifying. If she hadn't volunteered, no matter how much force the entire Destiny sent out, it would be impossible to catch her back.

Unless she sacrificed her life in exchange for her physical strength... but in that case, the destiny would not be able to bear it either.

In other words, the resources consumed are too unbalanced compared with the things obtained.

But fortunately, Kallen has a weakness, and they also took advantage of Kallen's weakness.

"Karen! You are guilty!"

----

"My lord judge, I don't know what crime I have committed." Karen raised her head and looked directly at the stage.

"You blatantly robbed the important research product of Destiny! Publicly publicized and even opposed Destiny! Smeared the fair image of Destiny with seriously inconsistent rumors!"

"Many charges have been added one by one, and the evidence is solid! You still say that you don't know what crimes?! Even if you are a saint of destiny, you can't turn black and white!"

On the stage, the judge spoke excitedly, saliva flying everywhere.

And hearing the crimes listed by the judge, the people not far away began to discuss... The nobles couldn't hear it, but the soldiers in charge of guarding order were sweating coldly on their foreheads.

Because they heard it clearly, what these people were talking about was not how bad the saint was, but they were targeting the nobles one after another.

At least more than 1000 people gathered on the field at this time, but there were only more than 100 soldiers who were responsible for maintaining order, and all of them were carrying ordinary weapons, without the enhancement of Houkai.

If there is a riot, they can't protect the nobles.

"It's ridiculous! The so-called destiny's research product is a box that seals the devil!" Karen said with a sneer, "You secretly conducted human experiments in order to study the power of the devil, causing countless minors to be murdered. It violates the fundamental purpose of the Mandate of Heaven to protect the people."

"Neither the experiment itself nor the person who presided over the experiment has any legitimacy, should not be protected by law, and should be punished!"

"What I did was what every Kaslana should do!"

"As for the rumours..." Karen glanced at the nobles sitting, then looked at the chaotic crowd outside, her voice was louder so that almost everyone could hear, "I just put the facts in concise The language has been spoken once!"

Karen resolutely refuted the judge's words one by one, resolutely not pleading guilty, and at the same time used her own strength to amplify her voice so loudly that ordinary people could hear it.

Since she didn't come here because she gave up on herself, but was tried with the idea of ​​tearing apart the authority of the Mandate of Heaven with her own hands, she didn't say anything about falling in love with a Herrscher.

Although these unorthodox remarks are more likely to anger the nobles and make them kill themselves regardless of means, but if they really want to speak out and let all the people hear, the legitimacy of Karen as a saint will also be questioned.

After all, no matter in that era, there was a blood feud between Honkai and human beings, and the people at this time were far less enlightened than later generations. Even in the information age, there are still people who are unwilling to forgive even the sober-minded Herrscher , let alone now.

At this point in the trial, the basic process can no longer be carried out. After all, Karen has sufficient reasons. As the charges were refuted one by one, Karen's momentum gradually overwhelmed the nobles.

So they were furious, completely ignoring the strange and angry eyes of the people, and dragged all the bribed people to the trial seat as witnesses.

Talking bluntly to himself, he put the blame on Karen again.

Karen looked at the dodging eyes of the so-called "witnesses", and there were even many people who had been rescued by her. She seemed to be looking for someone seriously.

After a few minutes, she couldn't find it.

Kallen smiled.

She knew that Sasha would not be among these people, and the others just met by chance, at most they happened to support a few bad money when they were phantom thieves.

It doesn't matter.

Chapter 49 The Eve of the Execution

Kallen's execution was set for three days later.

The public trial not only aroused great repercussions among the people, but even affected the Valkyries and individual priests.

In any case, in an organization spread all over Europe, it is impossible for everyone to have their hands stained with evil. There must be people who really think about the people, and there must be people who sincerely fight against Honkai.

Now this group of people, after the nobles forcibly put false charges on the saint, although they didn't say anything on the surface, they still felt shaken by the destiny in their hearts.

They did not shout for the saint, nor did they complain like ordinary people, but completed their own work as usual.

The nobles never knew that it was these groups, led by a man named Otto Apocalypse, who would directly turn the nobles' class upside down.

The most fundamental reason why the Castle Council dared to forcibly label Karen in public without being afraid of riots was that they believed in the combined ruling power of the Mandate of Heaven and the Council.

Religion + politics go hand in hand, no one can really shake the foundation of destiny, unless it is destiny itself.

However, in fact, when the civil war started, the first ones to stab the nobles were those who were in the Mandate of Heaven and planned to do their best, but never spoke out.

----

And within three days of turbulence amidst the calm, no one noticed that some unknown changes had taken place in the original European town.

If you have to say it, it's probably an atmosphere, a feeling, which is the same for ordinary people, but it is slightly different for the Valkyries who use the power of Houkai.

The concentration of the Houkai energy in the past three days has been unstable, fluctuating from high to low. It seems that something is assimilating here. This feeling makes many Valkyrie vigilant.

Karen's perception is the clearest, but she also doesn't know what happened. As the saying goes, if she has the ability to jump out of this world and look at it from another dimension, she will find that her original world Has sunk unconsciously.

Like two objects inside and outside the mirror, something real is falling, and something false, or another dimension, is rising.

[The last three days, Brownie, Delta, stand on the last shift. 】

In the World Bubble, Delta and Brownie saw Li Kai's big ball of light after a long absence, and they stood side by side, one left and one right.

"It's been a long time since I saw you like this." Delta sighed, then shook his head, "It's obvious that I haven't been in that world for a long time, why do I have the feeling that...it's been a long time since I came back... "

"It should be that we used to travel from one world to another, doing missions, and now we plan to run a world for a long time, and there are no specific missions, so we are not used to it." Brownie had a lollipop in his mouth, and his words were vague said.

"Li Kai, are we going to settle down in this world?"

[It doesn't count now, but it will count in the future. 】

The three of them then looked at the two worlds that had been gradually separated and could switch at any time.

----

The day before Karen's execution, in a dark room.

The dim light illuminated the shadows of two people, one with her head bowed, the other twisted like a devil... No, maybe the devil is not suitable, she is just a woman with a heart of snakes and scorpions.

Otto thought of all the available and feasible methods, but none of them could save Kallen's life. She will...

No, no no.

There must be other ways, he did not allow Kallen to die like this, to die in this way... Being forced to die by the shameless conspiracy of the nobles, this is the most useless way to die.

No, this is not the time to discuss the method of death.

What he wants is for Kallen to live, no matter what method he uses, no matter who he trades with.

----

His father died, and the most powerful man in Europe was poisoned at the most critical moment, and no one investigated the truth for him.

Lisa, her own sister, did it.

Now that she can do this, can she...rescue Kallen?

Otto's sanity is straining on the verge of madness, but he knows he won't last long and needs to find a way.

So here he is.

"What's the matter? My dear brother, shouldn't it be time for our father to wake up in church?"

"...Then why are you here? Sister Lisa."

"Well... because I hate that old man, and I don't want to put on airs there at all-is that a good reason?"

Lisa, Otto's sister, she doesn't bother to show the slightest affection and warmth in front of him, or in other words, she doesn't have such things.

Especially the archbishop - their father.

At least, the archbishop will show some true feelings for the benefit, but at this moment, Lisa doesn't mind her ugly face being seen by Otto.

"Father was poisoned to death, and I know who the murderer is."

Otto whispered.

"Oh? Who is it? I still want to know." The woman said seemingly indifferently, but there was a little wariness in her eyes.

After all, Otto is the son of the archbishop after all, and he is capable of ascending to the position of bishop.

"Let's end the temptation of knowingly asking, sister Lisa, you need the throne of destiny... and I also need to complete a deal."

Otto didn't have the patience to test it bit by bit. When he thought that Karen would lose his life forever tomorrow, he didn't want to make any plans at all.

Because of such a short time, it is too late to do anything.

"Karen Kaslana, right? You really like her." Lisa seemed to know Otto's thoughts, and looked at him with teasing and malicious eyes.

"It's a pity that she will be hanged tomorrow, and she will become a corpse that will never wake up under the dangling rope."

"—and she did it voluntarily, didn't she?"

......

"We are the ones who drove us to this dead end, and each of us is guilty."

"Okay, okay...I know what you want to trade, and I know you don't want her to die." Lisa seemed to understand Otto's thoughts completely, and patted him on the shoulder.

"But you have to know that even if the previous bishop is dead, the next bishop can't revoke such an important death sentence in a hurry. It's related to that person's prestige in a certain circle, understand?"

Does Lisa know what Otto's bargaining chip is, give up the position of bishop, and fly away.

It's just... she never believed in any promises, and for people like her and Otto, some promises were the least valuable thing.

"Unless...you're willing to get your hands dirty."

Chapter 50 Kill the Crow and Hang the Hang

Europe, Cathedral of Mandate of Heaven Headquarters.

Today's sky is gloomy, because a rare solar eclipse has occurred, which makes it seem like a dark morning or evening even if there are not many clouds in the sky.

Scattered people looked at the sky one after another. The sun that was supposed to shine on the earth was now pitch black, with only a few outlines of halos shining.

An atmosphere of uneasiness is growing, even the Valkyries are no exception. The concentration of Houkai energy is once again disturbed, and it seems that something big is about to happen.

嗄 - 嗄 -

Dead crows landed on the dead wood branches beside the church, making ominous calls, and they gathered more and more.

Today is destined to be an extraordinary day. The Holy Maiden of Destiny, Karen Kaslana will be executed at this moment. The rope will strangle her throat and hang her whole body. Gradually lose their life under the eyes.

This is a carnival for the nobles, because they have seized on Kaslana's weaknesses. If it can be done today, this strategy can also be used on other Kaslanas in the future.

They seem to have seen that the three major families had no choice but to cede their rights to the Castle Council.
