Soul echo

Chapter 452 Judgment
--madman!
After listening to the narration of the Lord of Stuttgart, the first word that popped up in everyone's mind was 'crazy'.

If you think about it carefully, it's even more terrifying.

Ulrich only started planning for the position of lord five years ago, but according to the clues he has so far, the human trafficking route formed by Mind Eater must have existed for more than five years.

In other words, the Lord of Stuttgart was already preparing for this matter before Ulrik started planning for the Lordship.

Being cuckolded by a loved one by a loved one may not be a big deal, but in the eyes of the Lord of Stuttgart, it is probably the most important event.

For this matter, he planned for an estimated 30 years, because Ulrik was already in his 30s.

His plan in the past was definitely not like this. It may be that as time went by, the resentment in his heart not only did not fade away, but it was like a gangrene, gnawing at his heart all the time. It became more and more extreme and distorted, which eventually led to the birth of this plan.

"Unfortunately, this plan has failed."

The lord of Stuttgart sighed, and all his energy and vigor, which was still talking freely, disappeared with this sigh, and his whole person became extremely decadent.

Looking at this old man, the eyes of many priests present flickered with complicated emotions.

Zhong Ye sat in the back row and didn't speak, but just quietly looked at the two people in the field.

After a while, the bishop of the God of War Church spoke, breaking the eerie silence.

"Todor von Skospier, you should know how much you have done. As the bishop of the largest church in Stuttgart, I have the right to deprive you of your position as lord."

Churches don't get their hands on power, but they police it.

In every territory, the largest local church has the responsibility and obligation to supervise the lord. It is precisely because of their existence that the nobles cannot be unscrupulous. Things like buying slaves can only be done in secret, and they dare not openly .

The Bishop was able to depose the Lord of Stuttgart by virtue of his previously revealed plans.

"However, the plan I made did not cause actual casualties. The casualties in the city now come from the abyss believers, and have nothing to do with me." Turning his head and glanced at the bishop, Todo Scospier sighed again He took a deep breath, "You can only deprive me of my lordship, but you cannot kill me."

Afterwards, he looked at his 'son' again, and said: "And after my lordship was deprived, Ulrik Skospier, who did not participate in this matter... No, Ulrik Skospier Tenis, because I have no direct heirs, although he is not my own son, but as my 'son', he will inherit the position of Lord of Stuttgart."

Ulrik, who had been stupefied all this time, suddenly shivered and came back to his senses.

In ecstasy, he couldn't control his emotions at all, the corners of his mouth curled up, and a smile appeared directly on his face.

He thought that the position of lord had gone away from him, but he didn't expect that after just 2 minutes, he lost it and regained it.

Seeing his appearance, many people couldn't help but sigh in their hearts.

idiot!

While Todd Skospier's final plan didn't work out, he did manage to raise Ulrik into a waste until then.

He said so much just now, and expressed the resentment hidden deep in his heart, how could he allow this idiot to successfully inherit the position of lord?

"However, he killed more than once." Todo said lightly.

Ulrik's smile froze on his face. He turned his stiff neck and looked down at his 'father' whose back was facing him. The expression on his face gradually became ferocious.

Todo did not look back at the fools he had cultivated, but continued to tell: "Every year and a half or two years, when the ships carrying slaves pass through Stuttgart, I will let them bring a beautiful and beautiful woman, And this woman will eventually be handed over to Ulrik Stennis by me - this time depends on when Ulrik Stennis gets tired of that woman and when he kills that woman.

"If it is said that I have committed the crime of buying and selling slaves, then Ulrik Stennis has committed the crime of murder. According to the "Noble Code", you have the right to deprive Ulrik Stennis of his inheritance rights."

"What are you talking about, old man!"

Ulrik finally couldn't help roaring: "If you hadn't given me those women, how could I have killed them? Apart from them, I haven't killed anyone!"

Then, like a dog begging for food, he looked at the bishop pitifully, "My lord bishop, all this is his fault and has nothing to do with me. I beg you not to deprive me of my inheritance. After this, I must Will change."

However, the bishop didn't even look at him, staring at Todor Skospier, and said in a deep voice: "Todor von Skospier, are you sure what you said?"

"Indeed." Todo nodded, "And I guarantee that my mind is extremely clear and calm, and all the words I speak come from the heart."

"Then, the joint trial is over!"

The bishop cleared his throat and stood up, "Next, I will announce the result of the trial - Todor von Skospiel, you will be sentenced for crimes such as buying and selling slaves, helping slave traders, and colluding with heretics. Deprivation of the title of lord, 20 years in prison."

Todo replied indifferently: "I accept."

At this moment, the bishop finally looked at Ulrik, who silently clenched his fists with hope in his eyes.

"Ulrike Stennis, you will be sentenced to deprivation of the lord's right of succession and imprisoned for 20 years for abusing others and killing others' lives."

"what?!"

Ulrik's eyes widened, and he shouted: "I don't agree! I don't accept it! It's not my fault, this old bastard asked me to do it all! He told me that even if those women are killed It doesn't matter, he will give me the new woman!"

Hearing this, the bishop nodded and said solemnly: "Then, Todor von Skospiel will be imprisoned for another ten years for inducing others to commit a crime, and the punishment for Ulrike Stenis will remain the same."

"I accept." Todo nodded again.

"I don't accept it!" Ulrik glared at the bishop angrily. "Obviously it's all this old man's fault, so why blame me?"

But even when he said that, the bishop didn't even look at him.

At the very least, Todor is still a 'hero' who can win and lose, and Ulrik is just a pure idiot and waste, useless at all, and has nothing else in his eyes except the position of lord.

They wouldn't believe that Ulrik would correct himself after taking the position of lord. On the contrary, he was very likely to get worse.

Moreover, it is obviously not a good thing to let a fool become the lord of Stuttgart. They still have to live in this city. Wouldn't it be asking for trouble for Ulrik to be the lord?

"Seconded."

"Seconded."

"Seconded."

The sound of "Second" sounded again and again, confirming the outcome of this trial.

The outcome of this trial has nothing to do with Todor and Ulrik. When they sat on those two chairs, they were regarded as 'prisoners' rather than nobles.

The people who really determined the outcome of this trial were actually the many clergymen sitting around the chapel.

Amidst the sound of "seconding the proposal", Zhong Ye quietly left the table.

He returned to the room where he was with Lilian and the others, and Lilian and the others were still waiting in this room.

Seeing Zhong Ye push the door in, Lily got up from the sofa, "Is there any result?"

Zhong Ye nodded, but said words that had nothing to do with the trial: "Go back to the Adventurer's House first, pack your luggage, and we will leave Stuttgart directly later."

"Shouldn't we take a rest here before leaving?" Lilian asked suspiciously.

Zhong Ye spoke calmly and looked indifferent, but Lily saw something from his face, pulled Lilian's arm, and nodded to Zhong Ye, "Okay, let's go back now."

Afterwards, Lily pulled the confused Lilian out of the room.

After they left, Zhong Ye took a deep breath and turned to leave.

The slightly heavy footsteps echoed in the corridor, Zhong Ye remained silent and walked towards the chapel step by step.
