Demon King

Chapter 145: Coup, trial!

   As the last dragon wailed and fell, the Snow Elf won the victory and regained its homeland.

   Victory is a sweet fruit. The soldiers held high bows and sharp swords, praising the snow elves' glory with high-pitched and tactful singing.

   The king returned triumphantly surrounded by soldiers, and his golden cloak was hunting and fluttering in the wind.

The soldiers thought that they would receive praise and blessings from the snow elves civilians, but after walking out of the cave, they were shocked to find that there was no cheering crowd in front of them, no doctors who offered snow leaves to sweep them away, only the mages surrounding them. Tuan, the staff exuding magical brilliance aimed at them.

   The king's eyes were filled with anger, "Do you want to rebel?!"

  The snow elves civilians watched from a distance, surprised.

The queen came out more and more, and the people spontaneously stepped aside. After she came to the mage group, she said loudly: "After the investigation by the ice star marshal, coupled with conclusive evidence, I discovered the truth about the dragon disaster. It is a conspiracy of an careerist!"

  Karis looked at the king with a complex expression: "You have attracted the dragon plague, and used the lives of your people to consolidate your throne. You are not worthy to be the king of the snow elves!"

   Whether soldiers, civilians or wizards, all the snow elves present were in an uproar.

"what?!"

   "Snow-Crystal Dragon Calamity turned out to be the king's conspiracy!"

"impossible!"

"what happened?"

   The king was furious, and stared at Kairis closely: "Karis, are you crazy?!"

Kairis turned to face the people, with a painful tone: "Although I am the queen and the wife of the king, I cannot sit back and watch Gaudis go to extinction in the hands of careerists. We must not violate the ancient motto of our ancestors-ambition and peace are coins. The positive and negative will never appear at the same time. Those who sacrifice their compatriots for personal gain are not worthy to call themselves the sons of ice and snow!"

   "I, Queen Kairis Binghua, will judge King Edton Xueyu here and exile him!"

  Karis took out two pieces of evidence and told all the speculation and reasoning. The snow elf civilians looked at each other in shock.

  At this time, an officer of the king's faction shouted: "Evidence can be forged, Marshal Ice Star died in battle, how can you determine the authenticity of the evidence!"

  Karis shook her head slowly, with a heavy tone: "The palace has been turned into ruins, and all traces have disappeared."

   The officer said coldly: "Your Royal Highness, since you can't prove the truth, I can understand your current behavior as a coup!"

  Karis solemnly said: "Truth and facts will not become false because of insufficient evidence, unless they are deliberately misrepresented. People, what I say is the truth, I am responsible to Gaudís..."

King Edton stepped forward and interrupted Kellys. He expressionlessly said, "Only the elders will have the power to judge the king. You are not qualified, Kellys, you are now slandering your king." , Soldiers, arrest the queen immediately."

  The soldiers looked at each other and didn't know who to listen to. The officer didn't hesitate and ordered: "The first team of the Snow Wind Corps attacked and immediately arrested the queen."

   His subordinates obeyed the order and walked out of the team.

   Suddenly, the mage group made a move, and ice magic smashed in front of the soldiers, drawing a line.

  Erenko said coldly: "Once someone crosses the line, the Mages will try their best!"

"Yes!"

The toughness of the    mage group restrained the soldiers, and they hesitated one after another, mainly because of psychological contradictions, not knowing who to trust.

   The scene is deadlocked.

   Tension!

  At this time, the king spoke, and looked at Kellys coldly, "It is a waste of time for the stalemate to go on. I ask the elders to arbitrate and invite the elders!"

   Snow elves nodded one after another, the elders were respected, they believed in the elder's judgment.

   However, Kairis shook her head: "Impossible."

   The officer ridiculed his face: "You are afraid that the elders will make a fair ruling, and your coup-change will fall short."

   "We only believe in the elders!"

   "Yes, I dare not invite the elders because there is a ghost in my heart."

   "The queen seems to be lacking in confidence."

   "The queen must have framed the king."

   "Is this politics or family affairs?"

   Kairis looked around at the puzzled people, and said loudly: "Ten minutes ago there was news from the patrol that the elders were assassinated and all were killed!"

  The snow elves were shocked.

Elder    was actually killed!

   The king changed his face suddenly, pointed at the queen, and said in anger: "You..."

Kairis suddenly pointed at the king and said angrily: "This is all part of his plan. For the sake of power, he will remove all obstacles by any means. As long as the elder is dead, he will be the greatest authority of Gaudis. No one can defeat him. Command, this is what he wants!"

   "Presumptuous!" Edton was furious, "You are slander!"

He picked up the sword and strode towards Kairis. The wizard group did not hesitate to take action, but the sky magic was cut off by his horizontal sword. Edton's strength is strong and brave, and he is a powerful swordsman, he said loudly. "My children, you are all fooled by this woman. Since you can't make a decision, I will catch her personally. Time will tell you who is right!"

   Edton approached Kellys, suddenly, sharp sword energy cut out from the side, stopped between him and Kellys, blocking Edton.

Sagaluo walked over slowly, and Sera followed behind him. His eyes were like a sword, and he scanned the audience. Everyone he saw felt their eyes tingling. He coldly said: "The elder is killed, this trial is up to me. Host, any of you have an opinion?"

   The status of the guardian is even higher than that of the elder, and the audience is silent, and no one has any objections.

   Edton was a little annoyed. He was only one step away from catching Kairis and gaining the upper hand, but Sagaro ruined his plan.

   This is Sera's credit. After her impassioned lobbying, Sagalo was psychologically biased towards the queen, so he protected her in a critical moment.

  The situation changed again and again, and the snow elf's attention was focused on the field, but Ivo who had returned did not find that Ivo had slipped into the crowd.

   Ivo watched the situation coldly, without any fluctuations in his heart.

   The "protection" the queen said, the real meaning hidden in the words is "assassination"!

   The assassination of the elder is Kairis's real request! And Ivo agreed to do this dirty work for the queen!

  There are several reasons. The biggest is profit. It is Kairis's plot to send the ancient Goya coins, and she wants to tie Ivo to her camp.

Only when Kairis succeeded in the coup-det’s d’etat and gained power, the ancient Goya coins in Ivo’s hands are valuable. On the contrary, the Snow Elves may not necessarily recognize the ancient Goya coins given by a queen who failed the coup-det’s d’etat. The old coins in his hand are not only useless, they may even prevent him from leaving Gaudiz safely.

   Ivo had seen this a long time ago, but he chose to accept the ancient Goya coins and stand on Kairis' side to ensure his own interests.

He understands that the queen wants to use him. Kairis can’t let the snow elves assassinate the elders. She can only ask him, an interested foreigner, that in addition to the ancient coins of Goya, the benefits of the king’s treasury also fall on her, Kaili Silk wants to impress Ivo with interest.

   Benefits are the most fundamental starting point, otherwise Ivo will not be full and hold on and intervene in the Snow Elf internal fight.

In addition to the benefits, there is another reason that the paper that the queen handed him contains a piece of account. Since Edton was elected king ten years ago, the four elders have successively won Edton in ten years. The gift, the amount of gift is huge.

   Ivo understands the meaning of the accounts. When the evidence is conclusive, the elders will naturally make a fair judgment, but now that the evidence cannot prove by themselves, the elders will certainly favor the king.

   The elders are highly respected and can easily dominate the public opinion and confuse the mind. Once the king gets a respite, Kairis will be in a very disadvantaged situation. If the coup fails, Kairis will have a miserable end.

   Ivo assassinated the elders and eradicated the king's hidden aid.

   and the murder of the elders can arouse the anger of the civilians, pour dirty water on the king's head, and guide the anger of the civilians. The starting point of this coup is justice and no failure is allowed.

   Sometimes, even if you stand upright, you have to do dirty work.

  Even though Ivo chose to help the queen, his affection for Kairis plummeted.

  God knows that in addition to the sense of responsibility in the Queen's heart, does she have the right to make trouble? !

   The elders will be killed, and the benefits that Kairis will gain are more than that. Once the coup succeeds, she will become the winner of the last laugh, and she will not accidentally set foot on the seat of the queen of Gaudis.

   Even if the starting point of this coup is justice, selfish desires are still hidden under the banner of justice.

Ivo also guessed whether all of this was Kairis’s plan, but he still remembered that the first encounter with Kairis was in the slave trader’s team without any snow elves to rescue him, which dispelled him. Doubts.

   looked back to the scene.

   Amidst the low voice of the civilians whispering and discussing, the queen showed Sagalo a piece of evidence, which the king has always denied.

   The trial presided over by the guardian, no one dared to mess around. Even if the king had great power, no soldier would dare to act on the guardian who was aloof.

   There are many supporters of the king, and the queen also has a helper. Erenko and Sera are arguing with their opponents red-faced and full of enthusiasm. Ivo always feels that he has come to the scene of the debate.

  The snow elves advocate freedom and equality, and the laws are loose. Many things are resolved by public votes. It is too democratic. Ivo thinks of the democratic politics of ancient Greece. There are many similarities.

   Ivo believes that if there is no guardian town, what will appear is a conspiracy confrontation, but under the deterrence of the guardian, all the king's backhands have no chance to display, and everything is placed on the table.

   Strength is the most important thing. Without strength, most conspiracies are empty talk.

After listening to the queen’s accusation and the king’s denial, Sakhara stood up and said lightly: “There is the most direct way to find out the truth. As long as the king takes the [True Word Potion], all lies. Will be torn apart."

   The audience was shocked!

   The king is a symbol of a kingdom. No one dares to propose such a method to interrogate the king. This is an insult to the king's power.

  Only a transcendent guardian dare to make this suggestion.

   The king stood up suddenly, frightened and angry: "You are so bold!"

  Sagaluo's eyes condensed, his momentum rose, and the fine gravel around his body floated up. He paused and said: "Are you afraid?"

   "I'm the king!" Edton said angrily.

   Sakura said lightly: "In my eyes, those who are on trial do not have any cloak of power."

   Iwo saw that Sagaluo took out a small gray bottle, finger-sized, filled with crystal clear liquid. This is the sixth-level potion mantra potion. After drinking it, he will answer all questions within five minutes and cannot lie.

   Edton snorted, he drank the mantra potion without fear, a gray light flashed on his stomach, and the gray light flowed upward, flowing three times between the king's mouth and tongue, and it worked.

   Within five minutes from now, the king cannot tell any lies.

   Sakura asked: "Is the Crystal Snow City Dragon Disaster related to you?"

   "No!" the king said flatly.

   The audience was in an uproar!

   Suddenly, all the snow elves' gazes focused on Kairis, and she was amazed.
