Chapter 284 I found that you have no eyesight at all

Demacia, the royal capital.

Grand square.

As night falls, the square is brightly lit and crowded. Several high-power electric lights illuminate the huge square as brightly as day.

On the square, voices of discussion were heard everywhere.

Even though it was overcrowded, there was still a steady stream of people from the royal capital coming from all over.

Usually when so many people gather here, there is usually something big to announce.

A magnificent statue stands at the other end of the square. Countless people have witnessed that he spoke human words and soared with wings.

It is the Colossus of Justice - Galio!

A giant statue with a long history but still alive, even just standing there, can give people a big shock.

Galio looked down at the crowds in the grand square. He couldn't remember how long it had been since he'd seen so many little Demacian people.

These were the people he wanted to protect. He successfully protected them again today, and Galio had a smile on his face.

Lux's magic power was flowing out of her body, and her eyelids were about to close as if they were fighting.

But even before falling asleep, Galio still wanted to see them one last time.

At the other end, there was a group of mages headed by Silas. Their number was estimated to be in the thousands. They waited quietly, ignoring the looks cast on them.

"Why are these mages still here?"

"What is the king going to announce?"

"It must be about the rebellion of mages today."

"Not only that, but there are also some about demon seekers."

"You'll find out later."

Amidst such repeated discussions, several thunderous drum beats "dong dong dong" sounded, echoing in the sky above the grand square.

The voices on the field unconsciously became quiet, and everyone raised their heads and looked towards the front.

On the open-air rooftop of the front castle, Jarvan III was ceremoniously dressed, with a crown on his head and a king's scepter in his hand. He slowly walked out with a serious face and faced the public.

He looked at the faces that were looking forward to it and spoke in a deep voice: "I have summoned you all here because I want to explain to everyone what happened today."

"The mage started a rebellion, but the cause of the matter was not because of the mage."

"Here, I solemnly announce something to the people of the country."

"Starting today, March 7, 679 AD, all mages in Demacia will be officially pardoned."

"From now on, mages can live normally in Demacia like everyone else!"

"At the same time, I declare that from today on, the Demon Searchers will be officially abolished!"

After Jiawen III finished speaking, there was an uproar in the audience.

At the other end, behind Silas, the mages unconsciously raised their staffs and cheered.

Silas's eyes flickered, and finally calmed down. His open fists clenched and unclenched unconsciously.

The king did not break his promise, he did pardon all the mages and deposed the magic seekers.

His fifteen years of darkness ended like this.

Is this what he wants?

This is what he wants.

However, at this moment, Silas suddenly felt like he had lost his life goal.

He originally planned to set off an unprecedented betrayal and have a face-to-face, equal-strength negotiation with the king of Demacia. In the end, the king had to pardon the mage.

But it seems that a lot of steps have been omitted in the middle, and we have gone directly to the last step.

From what he saw this afternoon, he also learned that Jarvan III was indeed not to blame for the ban on demons.

In this way, after he left that prison, what should he do in the future?

Confused, like most people who stop at a fork in the road of life, Silas felt extremely confused.

In the audience, the matter of pardoning all mages and abolishing demon seekers has ignited the whole audience, and the boiling discussion cannot be stopped at all.

At this moment, there was a buzz of "Dang" and a bell rang, and the whole place suddenly returned to silence.

"As a king, even though I know that my belated apology is completely insincere, I still want to say sorry to those mages who were harmed by Demacia before."

Jarvan III took off his crown and bowed solemnly. After standing up again, his expression was a little sad: "It was my connivance and my blindness that allowed the demon seeker to act so boldly and do things that tarnished the justice of Demacia. .I deeply apologize to those mages harmed by the demon seekers."

In the audience, there were some uninformed people who were still curious about what the demon searchers had done that outraged both humans and gods.

It actually made Jarvan III bow and apologize to the mages, and even directly abolished the magic searchers.

As the people who followed and were informed began to tell, every dirty and scandalous incident in the Demon Searcher's secret base was revealed.

Jarvan III gave enough time for the matter to spread by word of mouth.

Jarvan IV and Lu Qi were also in the room behind the rooftop. They were both standing quietly, surrounded by Roy and other ministers.

Over time, the anger of the people in the entire grand square was ignited.

Targeting the demon seekers uniformly, they have indeed done something that is outrageous to both humans and gods. As long as a Demacian with an upright character is able to tolerate it, almost none of them can tolerate it.

"Dang!"

As the bell rang again, the field became quiet again, but everyone's eyes full of anger told their mood at the moment.

"I will not let go of anyone involved. The rebellion launched by the mages in the capital today was also planned by the noble representative Tult and the leader of the Demon Seeker Corps, Eldred. It is just for the sake of stability. The regime has trampled on the dignity of Germany over and over again."

As Jarvan III spoke, his eyes became cold: "Here, I swear that I will not spare anyone involved lightly."

As he spoke slowly, a figure was escorted slowly up the dawn corridor in the middle of the grand square.

The leader was Hesbeth, followed by a group of demon seekers who were mainly involved, and then came the nobles who had secret contacts with Tourt and others, as well as some people with clear evidence of guilt.

There were ten of them, each one with a gray face and lowered head, being held captive by two soldiers in fine armor.

In front of all the people in the capital, these people were speechless and raised their heads, turning their heads to avoid people's eyes.

"You beasts!"

"Judge the country's traitors!"

"Damn guys!"

"I can't bear it anymore, hit them!"

At this moment, the anger of the masses needs to be vented.

As a rotten egg flew out of the crowd first and hit Hesbeth's face accurately, the next second the whole place erupted.

Countless garbage, stones, rotten eggs, and even shoes, as long as they can be thrown away, are thrown at these people.

When Lu Qi saw this scene in the room, he also said: "Now go down below and sell eggs, you will definitely make a fortune."

around:"."

"I realize that you have no eyesight at all."

Lux glanced at him speechlessly: "Is now the time to talk about this?"

Lu Qi asked: "Then why don't you say this?"

Lux thought for a while and glared at him: "Can't you just stay here quietly?"

Lu Qi said "Alas": "If you hadn't stopped me, I would have been throwing eggs down there right now. I would feel uncomfortable if these scum didn't throw them twice."

"Indeed." Lux nodded in agreement, and then looked at Lu Qi.

An idea came into two people's minds at the same time.

Needless to say, they prepared to sneak away and join the army of people throwing garbage in the square.

It's a pity that as soon as I turned around, I saw Ogesha stopping them with a stern face: "Don't run around at this time."

How long has it been since this happened? These two guys are still just thinking about making trouble.

If the two of them showed up outside now, the scene would probably be even more chaotic.

The hotly debated figures in the capital today are mainly Lux, who summoned the Colossus, and Lucci, who I heard has countered the conspiracy of Turt and others in one fell swoop.

Luqi and Lux ​​had no choice but to return angrily and stood there without saying a word.

Outside, the anger of the people was huge. The most important thing was that the Dawn Corridor was very long, which made even the soldiers responsible for escorting them inevitably suffer unreasonable disasters.

Even worse were the people in Hesbeth who had committed serious crimes. Their heads had been smashed and bleeding, and they were in a miserable state.

But no one sympathized with this look.

In terms of misery, none of the mages in the secret dungeon were several times more miserable than them.

What's more, these are all Demacia's moths, and there is no one to pity them.

It's just that there aren't many things that can be smashed, and some people even want to throw their own children at them to vent their anger.

The number of things thrown gradually decreased in the second half of the process. Seeing this scene, Jarvan III did not stop him and watched calmly throughout the process.

Until these people were escorted to the end of the Dawn Corridor, the people on the scene consciously became quiet.

Jarvan III said coldly: "The following people are all causing harm to the country and the people. They have committed unpardonable crimes. They regard Debon's teachings as nothing and have tarnished the noble soul of Demacia. I declare that they will be executed in public at noon tomorrow!"

As soon as he finished speaking, there was a burst of applause from the audience.

The prisoners being escorted all had pale faces, feeling deep despair at this moment.

In fact, there are many more people involved in this incident than those who have appeared now.

Not to mention, this is only the royal capital. If it spreads to other places outside the royal capital, there must be some innocent people.

However, these need to be cleaned up slowly. Of course, it is only a matter of time before they are cleaned up.

There were so many scum in Demacia that Jarvan III felt unspeakable heartache.

When he came back, he kept thinking about whether he was a qualified king.

If so, then why would such a thing happen under his rule?

In other words, he is old now.

In short, too many things happened today. Although it allowed Jarvan III to see a new future, it also made him feel a lot less energetic.

There was no bell this time. Jarvan III just raised his hand, and the audience fell into silence.

He turned around, looked at Jarvan IV and said, "Come up."

After hearing this, Jarvan IV stepped forward and appeared in front of the crowd on the rooftop.

Then, when Jarvan III turned back and continued to look at the crowd, he said in a deep voice: "From now on, I officially declare that Jarvan Lightshield IV is the next successor to the throne! I will never repent of this command. Promise once."

As soon as he finished speaking, Jarvan IV beside him couldn't help but froze for a moment.

The audience continued to be in an uproar.

Although Jarvan IV was the successor to the throne, it was something that many people expected and knew from the beginning.

But there was still a part of me that, after seeing the performance of the second prince before that, felt that he also had a chance to run for the throne.

After all, it is the third generation that has the final say as to who will sit in that position in the future.

But after today, when Jiawen III said this in front of everyone, it was basically certain.

There is no suspense about who will inherit the throne.

"Father."

Jarvan IV came to his senses and hesitated to say something.

But then again, after he was confirmed to inherit the throne, the first thing he felt was not joy, but a heavy burden.

In fact, he thought a lot during this period. He had such an outstanding second brother, and he felt that Lu Qi might be more suitable to inherit the throne.

And he can lead troops to fight at the border as he pleases.

The two brothers, one in charge of the inside and the other in charge of the outside, wouldn't it be possible to join forces and become invincible?

Little did he know that after hearing Sanshi's words, Lu Qi quietly breathed a sigh of relief.

Many people covet the throne and power, but for Lu Qi, it is not as satisfying as a small barbecue.

Being a king makes him tired at first glance. Just look at his father, who deals with so many things every day and only takes a walk, barely able to squeeze out any spare time. Don't be too sad.

If he wanted Lu Qi to live like this, it would be better to kill him altogether.

Recently, some scheming people have been spreading rumors that he wants to steal the heir, which makes him want to come forward to refute the rumors himself.

Well now, there will be no more rumors.

And he could see that his eldest brother was not honest either. The way he looked at him always made him feel as if he had thrown away his identity as the heir to the throne and then ran out to have fun.

How could Lu Qi endure this?

If that's the case, wouldn't it be the other way around?

This is absolutely impossible.

Jiawen III looked at the complex look in the IV's eyes and said softly: "I know what you mean, but this decision was made after careful consideration. Both of you brothers have the talent to inherit the throne, but you are more suitable for this position."

Lu Qi has naturally shown extraordinary talents during this period, and he is definitely qualified to inherit the throne.

But to put it bluntly, Jiawen III thought of this guy's usual laziness and unruly personality, so he still felt uneasy about handing over the position to him.

I'm afraid that if this guy sits on the throne, he will do some extra work.

When the time comes, you can't take it back.

In comparison, Jarvan IV, who has a more stable personality, is obviously more suitable.

Secondly, there is another point. Today's sudden and grand announcement also means that Jarvan III wants to put an end to the rumors spread outside.

From now on, he wants the whole country to be united.

There are so many lessons learned today.
