Witchcraft

Chapter 64 The Jury

Luo Xin summoned some cat clansmen and tauren, all of whom were picked at random. Everyone was a little confused, wondering why the priest asked him to come here.

"Since I'm in charge of military discipline, I need to determine some of my own systems. Today is to select a jury, and anyone can be a member of the jury." Luo Xin used the familiar tone of a magic stick, and her small eyes were a little unfathomable .

The people below buzzed and discussed.

"What does it mean?"

"Does it mean that we should decide the life and death of the prisoner?"

"It's a pity that I don't understand anything! Except for Xiaoyugan, I don't know anything about this world."

"Is the priest confused?"

"Okay! I can finally shine!"

A group of cat clansmen looked away, and most of them couldn't believe that the military discipline, which has always been strict, was actually handed over to them, a group of ordinary orcs.

"Don't worry, only cases involving ordinary people will be handed over to you, and soldiers will still be handled by me." Luo Xin continued with a smile.

For the army, there is no time to go through the process of civil litigation. It is better to follow the tradition, which can also ensure the execution of the army to the greatest extent.

Yinyue kept rolling her eyes at the side, he really didn't expect that Luo Xin would play this one, it was like a child's play.

Six people from the crowd signed up soon, and the first jury in history was born like this. It really seemed like a joke, and even the members of the jury couldn't believe it.

The power of the judge is naturally assumed by Luo Xin. After all, this is the first trial, and a person with common sense of trial is needed to sit in charge.

On a tree stump, Luo Xin always had an inscrutable smile.

In fact, this is one of the most successful legal systems, and it is extremely simple. It only needs to accumulate cases continuously, and successful cases can be replicated. If things go on like this, it will not take long to form a very humane legal system.

"Alright cat clansman, do you think you made a mistake?" Luo Xin said loudly.

Since there is no lawyer, it can only be explained by the prisoner himself. The legs of the cat tribe trembled and he almost peed in fear. Luo Xin explained beforehand that if he was found guilty, he would probably be executed, which made the cat tribe dare not Give up easily.

"Report to my lord, I am not charged with any crime." The cat clansman strengthened his courage and said loudly.

"Oh? So you're not pleading guilty?" Luo Xin curled her lips noncommittally, her eyes showed no emotion at all.

At this time, the tauren who was the public prosecutor stood up.

"According to the law of war of the orcs, anyone who drags down the army is a sinner. This cat clansman not only left his post without authorization, but also repeated it several times. This has violated the laws of war of the orcs." The tauren said in a muffled voice.

It can be seen that this cow is very involved in the show, and his eyes are a little smug. Obviously, this feeling of being a person with a high IQ makes him a little bit flustered, and he has successfully regarded himself as a senior barrister.

"Then do you have anything to say?" Luo Xin was still impartial, just asking the cat clansman.

"My lord, I had to leave because I had a stomachache. This could happen to anyone. It would be really unfair to execute me because of this." The cat clansman was in a hurry and couldn't help but refute loudly.

It's a matter of life and death, so we have to work hard!

"That is to say, you admit that you have left your post without authorization, but it is justifiable!" Luo Xin used an affirmative sentence.

The cat clansman nodded tearfully, looking extremely pitiful.

The members of the jury looked at each other, and after thinking about what the cat clansman said, everyone couldn't help but agree that such a thing could happen to anyone, and it would be too unfair to be executed for this.

"My lord priest, the law of war has been passed down for thousands of years. It is always the priest who decides the life and death of the prisoner. This person has left his post without authorization and the crime is well established. Please, Mr. Priest, sentence him to death as an example to others." The tauren did not agree very much, he always He is a staunch believer in war and cannot allow military discipline to be tarnished in the slightest.

In fact, the orcs have always had no laws. The priests have mastered the divine power and also the secular laws. The priests are the law. This is the millennium tradition of the orcs.

Luo Xin was in a bit of a dilemma. It was really not easy to reform such a thing, especially the distinction between soldiers and civilians, which was not easy for orcs either.

Under the tribal system, as long as an adult man is a warrior, as long as he can bathe in the glory of the main god, then this warrior is a warrior of the main god, and only the divine right can restrict them.

Ordinary orcs must obey military discipline unconditionally during war. This is a simple and crude set of rules, but effective.

If the civilians are now freed from the constraints of military discipline, I am afraid that it will damage the morale of the army. This will make all the orc warriors feel more restrained, even less than a civilian.

"Before the trial, I want to make it clear that from now on, the orc warriors have the priority, the most and the best food, and all trials cannot restrain the orc warriors. Their fate will be determined by the gods." Luo Xin had no choice but to attract the hearts of the people. If the hearts of the orc warriors were chilled, I was afraid that this expedition would be a mess.

As soon as these words came out, all the orc warriors immediately burst into smiles, which meant that the orc warriors were much higher than ordinary people, and they received the best respect.

As for the orc civilians, they are also completely acceptable. The biggest guarantee is that they are free from military shackles, and they are no longer afraid of losing their heads.

"My lord priest, I am willing to plead guilty, and only ask for a lenient treatment. After all, this is an excusable matter." The cat clansman kept struggling for his own destiny.

Everyone looked at the cat tribe with sympathetic eyes, and they felt the same way.

The orcs have always had a lot of bones when they went to war, especially the orc civilians, it is impossible to remember those military disciplines, and there are countless cases of being killed by their own people.

"Now let the members of the jury decide whether he is guilty or not." Luo Xin didn't delay for too long, this time the rehearsal was considered as a good start for the future trial, and there was no need for too complicated debate.

The army can't afford to take too long, especially since we are leaving tomorrow!
"My lord priest, we have unanimously ruled that the prisoner is guilty." No.1 of the jury stood up and said with sad eyes.

His eyes were full of sympathy. Although the suspect was found guilty of the crime, he did not think that the crime was worth a life.

The cat clansman sat down on the ground slumped, tears suddenly came out of the line, and was terrified of his fate.

"According to the logic, the public must vote unanimously to determine the punishment for the prisoner. However, time is running out, so let's vote with a show of hands!" Luo Xin said unexpectedly again.

The eyes of the cat clansman lit up again, with yearning for life!
