"The facts of the crime are clear, and the evidence is conclusive. The crime is confirmed!" the God of Law said again, announcing another crime of the God of Fear.
This was the 198th day of the public trial, and nearly 700,000 crimes had been verified.
Most of the more than 1.2 million crimes of the God of Fear were those that didn't need to be verified in detail. On a certain day, he instigated or colluded with other evil gods to carry out some evil activities. This kind of thing was known to everyone in the Pantheon Temple, and there was no need for further verification.
If even those were verified, it was tantamount to laughing at everyone's IQ.
What needed to be verified were some crimes that were not well known to the public or were particularly serious.
The gods didn't need to rest, so the public trial continued like this. Crimes were proved one after another, and from time to time, the gods knew that the content didn't need to be further verified just by mentioning the names. Up to now, more than half of the crimes had been verified.
As for how serious the crimes would be summed up in the end, and how cruel the punishment would be, there was almost no doubt.
The God of Fear sat on the dock in frustration and had completely given up resistance. He knew that he had completely lost, and there was no room for resistance. It was better to take advantage of the last time to enjoy the preciousness of life.
However, this kind of "enjoyment" was really a kind of suffering.
The confirmation of each crime shocked him, and he knew that the little time he had left was a little less.
At this time, he was grateful that he had done enough bad things over the years, and it took so much time to confirm the crimes one by one, which made him live a little longer.
"It's good to be alive …" The God of Fear had completely ignored the trial, and just sat on the chair of the dock weakly, blankly looking at the blue sky and the red sun transformed by the divine power above his head.
After a long time, he suddenly shouted, "I protest! Why is there not even a cloud in the sky here? "
Sui Xiong, who was busy verifying his crimes, was stunned and looked at him doubtfully.
"Since there is a sky and a sun, why are there no clouds?" the God of Fear asked eloquently. "And there is no wind! It's ridiculous! "
"Does this have anything to do with your crimes?" Sui Xiong asked.
The God of Fear didn't answer, but repeatedly emphasized the irrationality of the sky.
In the front row of the auditorium, the God of Sky blinked and found that many gods were looking at him.
"Hey? What does that have to do with me? "He asked, puzzled and depressed.
But who asked him to be the God of the Sky? Under the gaze of the gods, he could only sigh and wave his hand. Then, in the originally monotonous blue sky, many clouds of various sizes appeared, moving at a steady pace. A warm breeze blew across the spacious and empty trial assembly hall.
After solving this problem, the God of Fear sighed with satisfaction and returned to his previous half-dead appearance. He slumped in the chair and stared at the sky blankly.
"This guy can't be stupid, right?" a god mumbled. "I always feel that his brain is not normal anymore."
"You're not the only one who thinks so."
"Yeah, I think so too!"
"Damn, I thought I was the only one who thought so!"
"Haha, me too!"
It was no wonder that the gods thought so. The God of Fear now didn't look like a person with a normal mind. Well, a god with a normal mind.
Sui Xiong stared at him carefully for a long time and asked repeatedly, but he didn't get any answer. Finally, he sighed helplessly, ignored this guy who suddenly went crazy, and continued the trial.
Time passed little by little. When all the crimes were verified, the gods secretly breathed a sigh of relief.
This was probably the longest trial in the world. The whole trial process lasted more than 300 days. Considering the time needed for the final judgment, it might be almost close to a year in the mortal world.
Sometimes the trial in the mortal world would be entangled for a long time. Most of it happened when the two parties debated fiercely and argued about whether the crime was confirmed or not. Most of the crimes of the God of Fear didn't need to be argued at all. As long as a simple explanation was given, everyone could confirm that the crime was established. Only a few crimes needed to summon witnesses. The efficiency was high enough to make the mortal court feel ashamed.
However, the number of crimes of the God of Fear was really too many!
1,276,449 of them!
If the mortal court tried the case, it was estimated that several sets of judges and plaintiff teams would be prepared, and everyone would take turns. Otherwise, the judge and the plaintiff would be exhausted before the trial result came out.
Fortunately, the gods would not be tired. At least, they would not be tired because of such simple and easy work. Sui Xiong and the God of Law went through the 1,276,449 crimes one by one. They showed and explained them in front of the gods and the legendary strongmen in the mortal world, and then confirmed them one by one.
This process was very long. It was so long that many legendary strongmen in the mortal world couldn't stand it and went to rest when they heard half or even less than half of the crimes.
There was a special lounge in the venue of the public trial conference. The layout of the lounge was relatively simple. It was just an ordinary guest room. Whether it was a mortal or a god, if they wanted to rest, they could only go to such a simple guest room. Fortunately, even the mortals who had the highest requirements for living conditions knew that they couldn't pay attention to this with the gods, so no one jumped out to find fault. They took a good rest and then continued to listen to the trial.
For the immortal gods, one year was just like a snap of the fingers. Even for those mortals, it was nothing. The life of the legendary strongmen was calculated by "thousands of years". Everyone could afford to wait for one year.
For the God of Fear, this one year was an unbearable torment. He had tried to find a way to relieve his depression, but in the end, all the methods had lost their effect. Now he just sat on the chair blankly, slightly opened his mouth, and his eyes were dull. He was motionless.
If it weren't for the stability of his divine light, everyone would have suspected that he was dead.
"Well, all the crimes have been verified," the God of Law said seriously, "Now, I will pronounce the conviction of these crimes. But before pronouncing the sentence, according to the rules, I have to ask, who else wants to add to these crimes? Or raise an objection? "
The gods looked at each other and shook their heads.
Add? There were more than one million crimes. What was there to add?
Objection? Who the f * ck was stupid enough to raise an objection here?! Did he want to die?
However, there was actually someone who stood up.
"I have an objection!" A skinny God covered in a black robe stood up. "Most of the crimes committed by the Master of Fear are not related to the relevant laws. Since there is no relevant law, even if the crimes are conclusive, the charges can't be established! "
What?!
Was there really someone who didn't want to live?!
The gods were in an uproar and looked at the guy who raised the objection. A god beside him suddenly exclaimed, "You are the God of Shadow and Assassination! You are not dead?! "
The god covered in a black robe simply took off the hood that covered her head, revealing a pale and haggard face of a black-haired girl who seemed to be seriously injured and had not recovered.
This face was very strange to everyone, because for a long time, even the unlucky ones who died under her knife had only seen the black figure.
"Yes, I am the God of Shadow and Assassination." The only loyal subordinate of the God of Fear admitted frankly, "I know what you want to say. Since I am here today, I don't intend to leave alive! But, I have an objection to this trial! "
"There has never been a clear written law among the gods, and there is no content for gods in the laws of mortals. So even if the crimes of the God of Fear have been confirmed, you can't convict him! "
He was not afraid of the malicious and even hateful eyes around him. He stood proudly in the auditorium and stared at the trial platform, at Sui Xiong and the God of Law. He shouted loudly, "The God of Law is not afraid of those malicious and hateful eyes around him.
"This trial can only end here!"
