The Golden Clothes of the Heavens Beginning with Douluo

Chapter 224 The Day of Destruction, Angels Arrive ([-])

The next evening.

A carriage left the Debs family mansion under the guard of twelve knights, and was slowly driving towards Lord Merritt's mansion.Inside the carriage, there was only Alice.

Alice sat quietly in the carriage, pursing her lips, tightly clutching her long skirt with both hands.

The carriage continued to move forward, and soon came to the door of Duke Merritt's mansion.

"Miss Alice, here we are." The coachman's voice came from outside.

Alice couldn't help but her heart trembled when she heard this, and she couldn't help touching her waist with her right hand. The hardness of the dagger around her waist made Alice feel a little settled.

Taking a deep breath, Alice opened the door and got out of the carriage.

……

Inside the living room of Duke Merritt's mansion.

Alice, who was wearing a long skirt on her lower body and a coat on her upper body, was also considered tight.Stepping forward, Alice calmly walked into the living room. Alice looked around, but there was no one in the living room.

"Huh?" Alice frowned involuntarily.

At this time, a female waiter ran over and said respectfully: "Miss Alice, Your Excellency is in the study, please invite Miss Alice to the study."

"Study?" Alice paused slightly.

However, under the urging of the waiter's eyes, Alice still took a step.

The study is remote and quiet.There are very few people here.

Walking to the door of the study, Alice saw a blond middle-aged man walking in front of the desk looking at some papers.

"This is Merritt?" Alice felt that Merritt should be a very capable person the first time she saw Merritt.

Even when she was sitting at the desk, her back was straight and her eyes were so sharp.

"My lord, Miss Alice has arrived."

The maid said respectfully.

Merritt raised her head at this moment, and immediately stood up excitedly when she saw Alice: "Haha, Miss Alice is here?
I've been waiting for a long time, come on, Miss Alice, please take a seat first. "

After saying that, Merit stood up and walked towards Alice.

Alice stepped into the study.

Alice looked around, and there was a bookshelf on the right side of the study, with dense books on it.On the left side of the study is a bed.

"I usually rest here when I'm tired of reading or dealing with government affairs." Duke Merritt said with a smile, and at the same time walked to the door and closed the door of the study.

Seeing that the door of the study room was closed and only Merritt and her were left inside, Alice couldn't help being surprised.

"Master Merritt, it's better to open the door of the study, I'm not used to too dark environment."

Alice said quickly.

It's a pity that now Alice is simply sending sheep to the tiger's mouth...

However, just when Merritt rushed towards Alice, a white figure suddenly appeared. Merritt's eyes were blurred and she lost her mind.

Death rules, soul control.

With Bai Ge's cultivation, it couldn't be easier to control a mere seventh-level fighter.

I planned to kill him, but then changed my mind.

The person who made the move was Bai Ge.

Fate is impermanent, and God's will is like a knife.

For others, even Pope Haitings, who has practiced the "Great Prophecy", fate is very difficult and difficult to comprehend.

The only exception is Baige.

Every time he interferes with the fate trajectory of the characters in the original work, he can understand fate more.

Although the time of this epiphany-like state is extremely short, the accumulation of little things adds up, and Bai Ge is now only a step away from becoming a god.

It is impossible to say that one epiphany will become a god.

As for the fusion of Xuan Ao, the lower the strength, the easier it is.

Therefore, Bai Ge often tries to suppress his comprehension of the rules of fate.

----------------

As early as a month ago, Qian Renxue had become a god.

It's just that Bai Ge specially asked Sister Xue'er to place the location on the undead volcanic islands in the South China Sea.

Back then, when Baige and the others came to "Coiling Dragon", they were covered by the big boss Hongmeng. Therefore, even the main god Beirut could only treat Qian Renxue and Baige as natives of the Magnolia Continent.

The reason why sister Xue'er went to the undead volcanic islands in the South China Sea to become a god is to avoid Di Lin's perception.

Bai Ge didn't want Di Lin to find out that there were god-level powerhouses within the range of the Holy Alliance, and thus abandon the plan of "Day of Destruction", which would be really embarrassing.

……

On September 9999, 9 in the Yulan calendar, in the Heishui Mansion of Finlay City.

Blackwater Prison is the most famous and most heavily guarded prison in the Kingdom of Finlay.

And the Blackwater Mansion is the highest court in Finlay City to review the case.

In the trial court of the Blackwater Mansion, a large number of nobles gathered today, and even His Majesty King Clyde came to the side to observe.

And Linley naturally arrived today.

Bai Ge, taking advantage of Linley's uncle, came to join in the fun.

You know, without Linley this time, even though Alice didn't fall into Merit's trap, Kalan was really miserable.

In short, out of shape.

"Master Linley." All the nobles warmly greeted Linley.

"Linley, come, sit here." Clyde, who was sitting in front of the auditorium, smiled and waved to Linley.Linley smiled at Clyde and walked over.

Linley and Clyde sat together.

Merritt, whose hair was combed shiny, was sitting on the presiding judge's seat, her waist even more straight.

It really does give off a sense of impartiality.

"Everyone, please sit down." Merritt nodded and smiled to the many nobles in the auditorium, and Merritt even showed a humble smile in the direction of Clyde and Linley.

The many nobles in the auditorium fell silent, and a dozen people from the Debs family also came today, and those dozen people were sitting together nervously waiting for the trial to start.

"Bring Bernard." Merritt said directly.

After only a while, under the escort of two sergeants, Bernard, who was shackled and chained, finally entered the courtroom.

Merritt glanced at an official next to him, who stood up consciously, and began to say loudly: "During his tenure as 'Minister of Finance', Duke Paderson did many things that betrayed the interests of the kingdom.

Among them, it is suspected of smuggling water jade ore with the Debs family. The scale is so large that we have never seen it since the founding of the Kingdom of Finlay. Only the smuggled water jade ore that has been investigated and dealt with is worth nearly 5000 million gold coins! "

In fact, the smuggling of the Debs family has just begun. It is said that it is worth 5000 million gold coins, but the Debs family has only spent millions of gold coins.It can be seen that the profits of smuggling are huge.

It's a pity that this smuggling has only just begun, and because of Paderson's death, this matter was leaked.

The official continued: "After investigation, it was found that three people were in charge of the smuggling, one of whom committed suicide by jumping into the river, and the other two were brothers Lanseer and Lanmeer."

After speaking, the official sat down.

Merritt looked at Bernard: "Bernard, do you have anything to say?"

Bernard nodded and said: "Yes, my lord, first of all, the smugglers are not my Debs family.

Second, the Landseer brothers have been expelled by my Debs family long ago.

Third, the person who actually presides over the smuggling should be the one you call the person who jumped into the river.

Nothing to do with my Debs family. "

Merit nodded and smiled, "It's your third younger brother who presides over the smuggling, so you still say it's okay?"

"Third brother? My third brother is still traveling and adventuring outside, how could he preside over smuggling?" Bernard still insisted on this point.

"Your third brother is taking risks?" Merritt's face turned cold, "Then let me ask you, if your third brother is going on an adventure, then I will ask your Debs family to recall your third brother. Why did your third brother stay away for so long? Didn't come back?"

Bernard said to himself: "My third brother has traveled in other countries, and he may have traveled too far. It is normal that he cannot be contacted for a year or so."

Merritt looked at Bernard, smiled, and then said coldly: "Bring Cartson and the three of them up."

"Catson?" Bernard wondered, who are these three Catsons?
After a while, three timid youths came up, and immediately knelt down and respectfully said, "My lord."

These three youths are obviously the kind of civilians who have never seen the world.

Merritt said indifferently: "Catson, you have explained clearly what you discovered at the beginning."

"Yes, my lord." The young man at the head said respectfully, "On June 6th, our three brothers were fishing on the river, but suddenly we found a richly dressed nobleman floating along the river with a piece of dead wood in his arms. Look, this noble lord has blood on his body, and he is almost unconscious."

Hearing this, Bernard's expression changed a little.

"The day we chased and killed the leader of the smuggling was on June 6th, and it happened that he also jumped into that river." Merritt looked at Bernard, "Bernard, can you plead guilty?" ?”

"My third brother went out on an adventure, and he definitely did not preside over the smuggling. My Debs family is absolutely innocent." Bernard still held his head up at this time.

Merritt sneered and said, "Bring Canter Debs up."

When they heard the name 'Canter Debs', Bernard and the members of the Debs family in the auditorium immediately turned pale.

"This Canter Debs should be the third child of the Debs family."

Clyde said with a soft smile to Linley who was beside him, and Linley also nodded along.

Linley and Clyde just watched what happened, but the members of the Debs family were terrified.

Many members of the Debs family in the auditorium trembled nervously.

"Bang!"

There was a sound of chain strikes, and under the escort of two sergeants, a pale, thin, blond middle-aged man stepped into the courtroom.All the people in the trial court focused their attention on him, including Bernard, Karan, Nimitz and others.

Seeing the blond-haired middle-aged man appear, Bernard sighed and closed his eyes.

"Sure enough, it's the third child of the Debs family, Kanter!" There was a burst of discussion from the auditorium. As the third child of the Debs family, most of the nobles in Finlay City also knew Canter Debs. .

For this sake, it is useless for the Debs family to quibble.

Merritt, who was sitting on the presiding judge's seat, looked at Clyde, and Clyde nodded slightly.

"Bernard."

Merritt looked at Bernard, "So far, do you have anything to say?"

Bernard didn't look at Merritt, but turned his head to look at his third brother 'Kanter', staring at Kanter with burning eyes.

Kanter is also staring at his brother 'Bernard', and the two brothers just stare at each other.

"Third, why did you do this?" Bernard had disbelief in his eyes, and his whole body trembled in pain and anger.

"I'm sorry." Kanter said softly.

Bernard smiled bitterly, shook his head, and said solemnly: "You are not sorry for me, but for the entire Debs family.

For so many years, my Debs family has gone through many generations of ancestors' hard work to achieve today's achievements.

But you, you..." Bernard was speechless with pain.

"boom!"

Kanter knelt down heavily in the trial court, and two lines of tears flowed out.

"Brother, I should die!!!"

The hand with the chain slapped his face fiercely, crying bitterly: "Brother, I'm sorry, it's my fault.

It's because I'm not greedy, because I'm not satisfied with my little power and wealth in the family, so I embezzle the family's money for smuggling.

It's my fault, brother, it's all my fault! "

This scene stunned everyone in the auditorium.

Linley and Clyde were quite surprised, and even Merritt, who was the presiding judge, frowned.

"Things have come to this point."

Bernard raised his head and said, trying not to shed tears, he looked so depressed, "Third brother, it's no longer anyone's fault. What you have done has brought our whole family into an unprecedented crisis. in crisis.

I, Bernard Debs, as the patriarch of this generation of the family, even if I die, I can't face the ancestors of all generations. "

As he spoke, Bernard's tears still rolled down his face.

Bernard suddenly looked at Clyde, knelt down in the direction of Clyde, and cried bitterly: "Your Majesty, there is such a villain from my Debs family who betrayed the kingdom, and it is my Debs family. Unlucky.

I, Bernard, as patriarch, cannot escape guilt.

I, Bernard, am willing to die so that His Majesty can preserve our Debs family.

After all, the vast majority of people in our family are innocent! "

Clyde looked at Bernard.

Then he looked at Merritt and nodded slightly to Merritt.

Merritt knew what Clyde meant, and immediately said loudly: "The court is adjourned now, and the final judgment will be made in 15 minutes!"

……

All the nobles who were watching had to leave the courtroom one by one, and they could only enter the courtroom again after 15 minutes.Now the situation is very clear. It is entirely up to Clyde to decide how to punish the Debs family for the crime of smuggling.

For such a serious crime of smuggling, it is entirely possible for an individual to implicate the entire family.Even if the Debs family is wiped out, it is reasonable.

Of course, Clyde can also be more humane, just punish the Debs family, at least let the Debs family survive.

Whatever the outcome, everything is up to Clyde to decide.

Although Clyde is a weak chicken who forcibly promoted to level nine, he is still the king of the Kingdom of Finlay, so he can decide the fate of thousands of ordinary people with one word.

The so-called destiny, for the weak, is determined by the strong.

The stronger the strength, the smaller the shackles of fate.
