Chapter 34 This is my law
Li Lin sat in the chair, closed his eyes, and quietly pondered the situation in front of him and the information provided by Nia.
It is definitely not easy to revive the magic empire. Over the past thousand years, the people with the blood of the magic empire have been completely integrated by the five countries and become their murderers. More people have long died in that cruel war. After that, the remaining population of the empire was less than one percent. But now, it is infinitely equal to zero. Relying on a limited number of people such as Li Lin and Nia, there is no way to restore the country again.
Therefore, when traveling on the mainland, Nia took a fancy to this city, the city of mixed races. Due to their curse from birth, they did not believe in any gods, because no matter what the purpose of the gods' teachings could not make them recognize the curse that was accompanied by their birth. They even ridiculed themselves, "Even a pure-bred drow who believes in the goddess of forests, it is easier to accept than them." What's more, the magical talent of the mixed race is basically not bad. From this city, even the owner of a magic store has a much better understanding of magic than his profession.
They have been oppressed, fear and rolling their eyes.
If the Drow can at least be feared, then they can only be disgusting.
Every person living here has a tragic past and they will never be with those humans. The mage is not very stubborn in these aspects. On the contrary, they appear to be quite unconventional. No matter what kind of mixed race, as long as he loves magic and desires to learn, he can become a people of the magic empire.
"At that time, a group of magic-loving mages gathered together and eventually created an empire."
This is the first sentence in the history book of Magic Empire, and it also shows that racial barriers are not that important to passion itself.
It was precisely because of this idea that Nia chose to help these mixed-race people. For her, these people were indispensable help for the future revival of the magic empire. Although the dwarves and elves are now on the same front as them, it is more because they have common enemies rather than common goals. The dwarves have powerful enchantment skills, but they have no interest in magic. The elves have extraordinary spell casting abilities, but they love nature more. Even if they win in the end and get the assistance of those races, they are just travelers after all, not people who can resurrect the entire empire.
Now, the most important motivation to contact them is hatred.
If these methods can be effectively used to give them a common goal, the subsequent actions will naturally be much more convenient.
Li Lin did not intend to be enemies with the people of the entire continent, but in his opinion, the destruction of the five countries was necessary. Their people would definitely use blood to wash away blood, corpses as tombstones, and skeletons as sacrifices to vent the destruction and pain of the Magic Empire. More than 100,000 people died in that war, while the Five-Nation Alliance was like a greedy plant, absorbing the nutrients obtained from the corpses and taking root and sprouting. Until now, they have already possessed a territory and people far beyond the Magic Empire and their own.
These people must die, no one will be left behind, no one will be left, no one will be left, no one will be left, no one will be left, no one will be left behind, no one will be left behind, no one will be left behind, no one will be left behind, no one will be left behind, no one will be left behind, no one will be left behind, no one will be left behind, no one will be left behind, no one will be left behind, no one will be left behind, no one will be left behind, no one will be left behind,
Li Lin will never forget the creed of the Magic Empire - those who offend me will repay you ten times.
"Uncle? Dear uncle"
The fat businessman's hesitant voice sounded in Li Lin's ear. He opened his eyes and looked at the fat businessman in front of him. The fat businessman suddenly shivered. Perhaps he lowered his calm eyes and saw the fire of hatred and angry murderous intent that he could not understand. However, no matter how strong the flames were burning, Li Lin's rationality still formed a sharp ice barrier that would never break for thousands of years, firmly controlling them in it.
"What happened?"
"This, the guards have notified us to go to the court...you..."
I don’t know if it was affected by the murderous intent, but the fat businessman’s tone was much more respectful than before.
"It's finally time?"
Li Lin stood up, patted his clothes, surprised at the passage of time. He didn't say much, and soon walked towards the guards standing at the door. As early as when they entered the city, Nia felt someone peeking at them, and Li Lin had already made his own plans. He used himself as bait to lift out the ambitious lurkers and asked Nia to deal with them all. After all, Li Lin did not want the unstable factors to appear in his plan, and it would be best to eliminate any accidents.
Only what is in your own hands is the truth.
Fortunately, the guards did not drive them away from walking on the stairs of the stone wall like other prisoners, but instead led them on a floating stone plate with good intentions - which also made the fat merchant's face extremely sad, as if the death row was enjoying his last delicious feast, but it had no meaning except that it was near death.
Along the way, the guards were extremely polite to Li Lin and others, which also strengthened the fat boss's idea. After all, only when they are dying will people get some kindness without any reward from others for free.
If he knew that the guard was so respectful to the two because he received the above order, maybe the fat businessman would be in a better mood.
When people face the unknown, they always feel very frightened and uneasy. This is why when they step into the court, Li Lin's expression remains unchanged, and the sweat from the fat merchant has penetrated his back. Especially when he sees the young half-elf man sitting on the platform in front of him, the fat merchant is extremely depressed. As a native figure here, how could he not know that this half-elf guard leader has always hated evil deeds and no one of the criminals he judged can be treated leniently. When he saw the old figure sitting on the three chairs behind him, the fat merchant was almost scared to sit on the ground.
Oh my God, it’s just a transaction of prohibited items. As for letting these three great wizards appear?
The entire judge hall is a hollow hole that is not big. It is similar to the stadium that Li Lin saw on Earth. The artificial grooves developed upwards are chairs and barriers. There are many people coming to listen. Under the deliberate publicity of some people, almost all of them come here with curiosity and the misfortune of others, waiting for the drama they hope for.
"Magic Shop Owner, Pika Chu."
At this moment, the half-elf spoke.
"You are accused of selling banned magical items and getting all the stolen goods. We have enough witnesses and evidence to prove this. Do you have anything to explain about this?"
"This... Lord Elas..."
The fat businessman crossed his hands uneasyly, rubbed his hands, frowned, and tried hard to explain.
"Listen to my explanation..."
However, before he could think of the words to answer, the half-elf had already shifted his gaze and looked at Li Lin.
"External."
His tone became more serious.
"You have violated our laws and no matter who you are, you should not escape punishment. I announce that you will be held in the water prison until you express your sincere reflection. Do you have anything to say?"
“In fact, I object.”
Compared to the panicked businessman, Li Lin was more calm and calm. He looked around and found no trace of the little guy. He didn't know where the best viewing seat she said was. But this was also a question that Li Lin didn't need to think about. He was still staring at the half-elf noble in front of him. Seeing his angry eyes burning, he felt more and more that he was still a child.
"You don't have any evidence to prove this, and in fact, even if you have a way to prove it, I will not admit that I have done this. Then the communication between the two will never be in harmony - come up with evidence that can convince me, which will be good for both parties."
"The space pocket around your waist is evidence, outsiders."
Elas's expression was serious and serious.
“If we check that pocket, we will naturally find the prohibited items you purchased.”
“This doesn’t mean anything.”
Li Lin's fingers moved unconsciously.
"I think you shouldn't go out to the street to justify a person's wallet and say that the gold coins inside were stolen from you. This is not any evidence, and there is no sign on these materials that can indicate the origin. How do you prove that it was purchased from this boss? Do you have any evidence to prove that we have traded it?"
"Silly quibbling."
Ailas stood up and patted his hands. Soon, the guard who had appeared in the store walked out from the side.
"He is a witness to this deal."
Elas looked at Li Lin proudly, then nodded from the guards, signaling him to tell him what he saw.
"………When I pushed open the door, I saw this outsider standing in front of the counter, and in front of him, there were a lot of prohibited items."
The guards quickly began their statements.
"It's obvious that he was discussing a deal with this boss about a violation of the law, so I immediately performed my duties and imprisoned them."
"very good."
Elas smiled at the guards with satisfaction.
"External, what else do you have to say?"
“In fact, there is a lot more to state.”
Facing the statements of the guards in front of him, Li Lin did not make any changes.
"According to the statement of this guard, he only saw me standing in front of the counter, and the boss standing behind the counter, and there was a pile of magical materials between us..." He deliberately ignored the word "banned". "So, how did he see us making a transaction? The so-called transaction means paying money with one hand and the other hand. Did I give him money? Why didn't we discuss the quality of the goods? I am a scholar and have always had a unique hobby for studying various magical items. Why aren't we discussing and communicating?"
"Yes, Lord Elas."
Perhaps because of Li Lin's inspiration, the fat businessman also plucked up his courage. Instead of being sentenced and throwing it into the dungeon, it would be better to take a try here, and things might turn a corner.
"We are just arguing about the quality of those items, not buying and selling prohibited items."
The surroundings began to be noisy. Although most people came here with the mentality of watching the show, it was difficult for the fat merchants not to arouse their sympathy of the sympathy of the dead rabbit and the fox. After all, although the law is supreme, in the years when the half-elf became the chief guard, the strict punishment for crimes was somewhat beyond the limit that the residents here could tolerate, and no one would want to be detained and punished for small mistakes. However, they also knew very well that such negligence in small details would not become the focus of the reversal of the entire trial.
"Enough."
Elas waved his hand fiercely.
"We don't need to obey your quibble. We want you to come here just to make you realize your sin of breaking the law. But now your words that are comparable to the devil have shown that you are not going to admit your mistakes, so we have to extend your sentence!"
Speaking of this, Elas looked around proudly before he spoke the words he had carefully prepared.
"Don't think that you are the companion of Master Jinye, and we will be merciful to you! Here, no one can get exemptions in front of the law!!"
As soon as this said, everyone was shocked. Although the civilians did not know the coup that Nia secretly carried out, most of them had been favored by Master Jinye and respected her very much. They were a little surprised to hear that this man was Master Jinye's companion but he was still not treated with special treatment. At the same time, they were also full of suspicion and doubt.
Looking around, Ayras's originally confident smile began to slowly disappear. In his plan, everyone at this moment had already appreciated him, lamenting his fairness and non-indulgence. But beyond his expectations, most of the noisy talks were very worried or even dissatisfied with what he did. Why? Why do these people think so? Do they not want to see the classes representing privileged lower their proud heads?
"Please be quiet."
At this moment, an old wizard sitting on it spoke, and with his voice, the originally chaotic court quieted down again.
"Sir Elas, we have already listened to your narrative, so we have our own words to say."
As she said that, the old mage stood up and bowed slightly to indicate that, and soon, Nia's figure appeared beside him. She was still wearing a cloak to wrap herself around, and seemed to be unwilling to see others, but this was the image of Master Jinye that everyone is most familiar with.
"I don't intend to justify this, but since you say that buying these materials is considered prohibited items..."
Nia sighed.
"So, I announce that starting today, this law on contraband will be completely abolished. After all, the materials of necromancer magic are still a kind of magic material, not a dangerous commodity. In this way, I think you don't need to do anything more."
"What are you talking about?!!"
As soon as Nia said this, the audience was in an uproar. Ayras could no longer sit still and stood up and looked at her.
"What qualifications do you have to make such a change?"
“Because this is the law I enacted.”
Nia's tone was still gentle, gentle, and unwavering.
"So, naturally I have the power to modify it."
