Gold is Justice

Under everyone's gaze, Ariel issued such an almost decisive order!

Similarly, under the watchful eyes of everyone around, Yi Ge nodded slightly, jumped on the horse again, turned and left.

Hearing the sound of horseshoes going away, Ariel walked to the city gate again, holding the elemental spear in both hands, silently watching the end of the wilderness ahead.

Behind her were the citizens who were hiding in their rooms and could not escape.

Those who are willing to stay in this Pelican City because they believe in themselves...

Similarly, they are also a group of poor people... a group of people who have nowhere to go due to various reasons, and finally can only come to their side, go to Pelican City, and finally be able to work hard and settle down.

Among them were slaves and commoners.There are men and there are women.There are old people and children.

All kinds of people, for almost the same reasons, all gathered in this city that was almost built under his own supervision...

They believe in themselves... believe that they can really lead them on the road to happiness...

Believe... I am a woman who used to be a slave...

"Heh... what a big joke..."

Ariel raised her hand and opened it.Looking at the calloused hand, she muttered softly in a voice that only she could hear——

"I think that as long as I have enough money, I can have enough justice... But now, is justice like this?"

She shook her head lightly, and once again embraced the elemental spear with both hands.At this time, on both sides of her, her guild members unfolded their weapons one after another, looking ready to fight to the death at any time.

This scene still moved her a little, and she couldn't help sighing, thinking——

(Even if I die here today, I, Ariel Garcia, will live a vigorous life.)

despair--

Just as Ariel was thinking wildly, a horse suddenly appeared on the distant plain.

The horse ran very fast, and after approaching quickly, everyone immediately realized that the one sitting on the horse was none other than Cream.

It's just that the current Cream has an arrow in his shoulder, and his expression is very majestic.

"drive!"

The horse rushed to the city gate, Cream didn't stop at all, but stepped on the horse's back and jumped over the city gate.

As soon as he landed, perhaps because of the injury on his shoulder, he failed to stand up smoothly, but fell limp all of a sudden.

"do not move!"

Margo immediately ran over holding the staff of light in her hand, and began to treat the arrow wound on Cream's shoulder.

Cream, on the other hand, gritted his teeth and shouted, "They... are here...!"

They... came...!

It was at this time that there was finally a very slight trampling sound of horseshoes on the distant plain.

click-

It's just that the trampling sound of the horse's hooves seemed so regular and neat.It was as if hundreds of thousands of horses were all lifting their feet at the same time and putting them down at the same time!The vibration generated was enough for Ariel, who hadn't seen anything yet, to feel it.

click-

Finally, a ride began to appear on the other side of the plain.

Slowly, behind this cavalry, neat rows of cavalry began to emerge!

Their armor looked so gleaming under the morning sun, bright as new.

But the long spears they held in their hands, the daggers pinned to their waists, and the quiver beside the saddles of their horses seemed so flickering and frightening!

This heavy cavalry seemed to be fully prepared, and they didn't seem to be in a hurry at all, and they didn't want to take this opportunity to rush down the fragile, paper-thin walls of Pelican City in one go.Instead, he just came over so leisurely, showing the strength and well-trained of the whole team.

At the same time... it also brought extremely heavy mental pressure to the so-called defense of the city with less than a hundred people.

Ariel clenched her palms slightly, looking at the seemingly black army in the distance.

Although it is now head-up, it can be seen more or less that the cavalry is arranged in a row of about 200 people, and there are about five rows in front and back.

Obviously, this is not a formation specially used for charging and encroaching, but a formation similar to a marching army or a guard of honor.

What does this represent?

It means that this army, at least on the surface, does not pay attention to the defensive power of Pelican City.

In the distance, the thousand-man heavy cavalry unit stopped about 500 meters away from the gate of Pelican City.

Even those war horses in heavy armor are now standing obediently in place, without the slightest movement.

And 500 meters... Some people with better eyesight can already see the rows of cavalry clearly.Such a situation made some people's legs start to tremble, and their lips turned white.

But now, everyone here seems to have no choice...

The only thing they can rely on, perhaps, is the mayor's command, and the elemental spear in their hands that doesn't look gorgeous at all, and has no decorations at all. It is simply extremely simple and extremely earthy.

Compared with those heavy knights wearing heavy armor, the elemental spears in their hands looked so ridiculous, and they were so overwhelmed...

As the people silently swallowed the saliva in their throats, the cavalry who stopped over there began to slowly separate from left to right.Soon, three riders walked out of it, slowly heading towards Pelican City.

After seeing someone approaching, Cheese, the gunman, immediately raised the short gun in his hands and shouted loudly: "Everyone is ready!"

Hearing the order, everyone squeezed the elemental guns in their hands again, aiming at the person in front.

As for the three people who came on horses, they didn't seem to care about the simple city gate and the so-called "defense" behind the gate, which was almost laughable. stopped.

"Ariel Garcia! It seems that you are really beyond your control."

The person in the front was riding a tall horse, and his armor almost covered his teeth.That shiny armor doesn't look like it's used for fighting, but it's used to shock the hearts of these fragile civilians.

This person is none other than the former president of the Light of Heaven Guild—Paladin Guangzhongguang.

Paladin's eyes slowly swept across the poor civilians in front of him, seeing the fearful and timid expressions on their faces, he couldn't help grinning, and shouted again—"Ariel Garcia! If you have the guts to rebel, you won't!" Do you have the guts to speak out?!"

At the city gate, everyone's eyes turned to Ariel.

Looking at the eyes of the people around, Ariel let out a little breath, and asked the workers and peasants to open the gap of the city gate a little bit, squeezed out, holding the elemental gun in both hands, and stood in front of the former strongest guild leader ——

"Mr. Guang Zhongguang, it's really an honor to meet you. Although we have met before, it should be the first time to formally know each other like this, right?"

Paladin was riding on the horse, looking down at the girl who was a hundred meters away.

Her blonde hair was now coiled and tied tightly at the back of her head.Although a face is not very clean, but if you look closely, you can tell that it is definitely a beauty embryo that is not inferior to the prince and concubine.

If there are any shortcomings, it is that the girl's eyes are too sharp and determined.It doesn't conform to the soft appearance that a woman should have... In other words, such eyes give people a feeling of being out of place, very irritating.

At that moment, Paladin stretched out his hand and waved slightly behind him.

Soon, a knight behind him also slowly took two steps forward.

Unlike other heavily armed knights, this knight was dressed in civilian clothes, and he didn't look like a battle-hardened warrior. What's more, he didn't wear armor or weapons. He looked more like a warrior. a commoner.

Chapter 380

"Ariel Garcia, do you still recognize this person?"

Accompanied by Paladin's words, the man on the horse took two steps forward, and at the same time said following Paladin's words——

"Dear Lord Mayor! How are you doing recently?"

Now that the distance is a bit far away, Ariel can't see it very clearly, but when she heard this voice, she immediately came to her senses, and then said, "White? You are the White who took over the position of Justice Suta?!"

The man named White nodded immediately, and said with a smile: "Yes, Lord Mayor, you still remember me. I am really honored. I was just standing there when you were dealing with Viscount Bapu. Cheese glanced at you from behind. You smiled at me after I taught Viscount Wambapu a lesson. At that time, you probably thought that I was in the same camp as you, right?"

At this time, some workers behind the city gate also recognized White's voice, and immediately someone cursed: "White! You traitor! Mr. Mayor promoted you to be the chief justice of our city! Is this how you treat us? ?!"

Facing the abuse from Pelican City, White seemed very relaxed, and said leisurely: "Betrayal? Ha! What does this mean. You know, now you are the betrayers, and you are the ones who dare Rebels who disobeyed the orders of His Majesty the Supreme Emperor!"

"As for me, I just stood on the correct side of history and promptly reported the news of your rebellion to the respected Baron Guang Zhongguang. What qualifications do you have to say that I rebelled? Ha! You traitors."

Ariel stared blankly at White, who was riding on the tall horse, and remained silent until she heard him finish speaking.

But after seeing this person's face with a joyful smile, Ariel couldn't bear it any longer, and shouted——

"I, Ariel Garcia, Song of the Mermaid, Pelican City, do I owe you anything?! White!"

White shrugged his shoulders slightly, and said with a smile: "Well... Generally speaking, you do not owe me anything. Moreover, I am also very grateful to Mr. Mayor for your willingness to start the examination system and let me read this a little bit. People who read books can become the chief judge of Pelican City by virtue of their own strength. I am just the son of an ordinary farmer. Big power, it feels really good."

Ariel gritted her teeth lightly, and continued to shout: "Then...why is this?"

White still shook his head easily: "But think about it, I was already the judge of Pelican City before. But if I continue to rebel with you, when the mighty invincible army of the emperor's grace arrives, wouldn't I also want to Be crushed together? Mr. Mayor, aren’t you the same? After you got the power of the mayor, you never want to give it up, even the emperor’s order. Who doesn’t like power? So , stop accusing me so hypocritically. You don't have the right to accuse me. "

Brad couldn't bear it anymore, and shouted: "Traitor——!!!"

In this regard, White seemed to want to reply, but Paladin was too lazy to continue such a verbal argument, but gave the traitor a gesture to turn around and return to the position behind him.

Afterwards, Paladin said again: "Ariel Viscount Garcia, I respect your title now, and call you Viscount again. To be honest, what you are doing now can be called rebellion. If If you still have a little bit of conscience and your mind is still normal, I advise you to surrender immediately and destroy all your elemental machines, and finally all the staff will follow me to the capital and wait for His Majesty to order."

"If you do this, I can also plead for you in front of His Majesty, saying that you were just bewitched by the people around you, and you did such a ridiculous thing for a while. From now on, maybe you will still You can live a luxurious life as the mistress of the prince."

Ariel's face was ashen, and her eyes kept looking around.However, the southeast of Pelican City is a large plain, and it is a little far away from the Shining Forest. Even if you want to arrange a sneak attack, it will be too late in such an urgent situation...

However, when Ariel was thinking painfully, but couldn't find a way out, Paladin over there suddenly raised the long sword in his hand and shouted loudly——

"But! Listen up, everyone in Pelican City! But! If you are still stubborn and want to follow this woman in such a child's play of rebellion, then don't blame your Majesty's kindness for not favoring you! Surrender now , you can still live in peace and security, and forget all the past! But if you resist stubbornly, when the Pelican City Gate is broken, everyone in your entire city will have to pay the most painful price for it!"

Paladin Guang Zhongguang, an absolutely senior adventurer, may be the most powerful among all the well-known fighters in the entire Blue Bay Empire.

His roar swept across the distance of less than a hundred meters, and abruptly blasted into the ears of the citizens and workers guarding the city.For a while, some of these people who had said before that they wanted to fight for their families could no longer support the fear in their hearts, their legs softened, and the elemental guns in their hands fell to the ground.

Seeing that the morale of these so-called defenders was so low, Paladin was even more relieved.He nodded slightly, and shouted with a more relaxed expression: "Now, Viscount Ariel Garcia, I will give you ten seconds to surrender to me! One! Two! Three!"

Ariel snorted coldly, and silently retreated inside the city gate.

"...Eight! Nine! Ten!"

Paladin nodded again, and said: "It seems that you really want to die here? But for His Majesty's kindness, people in Pelican City listen! If you want to live, kill this woman now. Grab it, and open the city gate!"

Ariel, who returned to the back of the city gate, closed the wooden door with her own hands, then turned her head and looked at the workers and citizens around her.
