Report

Compared with the execution of Hogg Bell on the first day, the sentences and executions in the following days were relatively dull.

It was not that the people who were executed were not of high status. In fact, those who were executed were all nobles. Not a single commoner was among them. Many of them were big nobles, and more than one leader of a big tribe was beheaded.

However, compared with Hogg Bell, they were not as important.

Sui Xiong felt that his performance was not good enough, and the arrangement was not appropriate enough. In fact, Burton Tiger should have been executed on the first day, followed by a legendary master on the second and third day. When the audience was secretly wondering who would be the next legendary master to be executed, the execution of Hogg on the fourth day would have been even more shocking and shocking.

It was a pity that the past was in the past. What a pity!

Unlike Sui Xiong, who felt that it was not perfect enough, the audience was very satisfied with the bloody performance in the sky.

This could be seen from the increasing number of the audience.

On the first day, there were not enough people who came from all directions. Even though Sui Xiong had laid the groundwork, who would be interested in this kind of public execution for those who had a high social status? One had to know that the people he had killed before did not have a high enough status and identity.

However, Sui Xiong's first move in the Great Golden Tent was to kill the retired emperor of the Orc Empire, which immediately aroused everyone's interest.

The first person he killed was such a big shot. Who would he kill next?

Everyone was very curious.

Therefore, when the news of his execution of Hogg spread, many people hurried to the Great Golden Tent from all directions, wanting to see what was going on.

Where there were people, there were conflicts. Naturally, there were internal struggles in the Orc Empire. There were power struggles and ideological struggles. They were fighting for real interests and the right to speak. As a collection of extremists, 'Isis' had a lot of enemies all over the world. Even within the Orc Empire, there were a lot of enemies.

Before Emperor Junero came to power, they had been keen on purging the mixed-blood "fringe species" from the top ranks of the Orc Empire, which made them a lot of enemies.

Borderline species referred to the intermarriage of two different races within the Beastmen, resulting in the birth of a child with the characteristics of both races.

The bloodline of the Orcs was very strange. If they intermarried with a race other than the Orcs, they would give birth to children with weakened Orc characteristics. In the biological sense, they would be "half-orcs". However, if they intermarried, then no matter what race the husband and wife were, their children would generally only show one race. For example, if a fox and a rabbit were to marry, they would most likely give birth to either a fox or a rabbit. There would not be a child in between.

It was said that this was set by the Orc Gods who created them in advance to ensure the purity of their bloodline and prevent disputes over the ownership of their faith.

However, there were always exceptions to everything. There was about a one percent chance that an interracial couple would give birth to a child with characteristics of both races. Using the previous example as an example, it was possible to give birth to a child with the characteristics of both the fox and rabbit races.

This kind of child was known as the "borderline species".

Hoppes Wilder, who had traveled thousands of miles to attend a technical school in the Republic of Northwest to study mineral processing, was such an example.

In the past, the Orcs did not particularly discriminate against the borderline species. Even though they were born half-orcs, there were many half-orcs in the Orc Empire, so it was not a big deal. Although the borderline species looked a little strange, their treatment was no different from other half-orcs. Often, because their family conditions were better, their standard of living was quite good.

However, the "Iciz" organization believed that those who awakened both bloodlines at the same time were born as the borderline species of the Orc Empire and were unable to respond to any of the gods were a disgrace to their families. The higher-ups of the Orc Empire should set an example for the commoners and serve the gods more devoutly. If they dealt with the borderline species themselves, they would not bring shame to their families and tarnish the name of the gods they believed in.

These words sounded dignified, but how could those great nobles be willing to execute their own children so easily?

Shame? We don't think so! Tarnish? The gods have not even said anything, so who do you think you are!

Back then, with the support of Emperor Hogg, the "Iciz" organization had indeed executed many of the "borderline species" of the noble families by force. As a result, for a long time, the various Orc clans had stopped intermarrying. It was not until Emperor Junero came to power and explicitly forbade the execution of the borderline species that the Orcs started intermarrying again.

However, even though Emperor Junero openly opposed it and even issued a clear order, the "Iciz" organization still secretly executed the borderline species. They did not dare to openly oppose the emperor's order and directly kill the borderline species, but they could use various means to pressure the families that gave birth to the borderline species, forcing them to kill them themselves.

As an official organization, and with Hogg Bell's support, the Iciz organization was naturally very powerful. Very few Orc clans could resist their pressure. The reason why Hoppes had left his hometown to study in the Republic of Northwest, and even decided to settle there for the rest of his life, was largely because of this reason.

One had to know that Hoppes was a descendant of the Wilder Family, a branch of the famous "Sage Family" among the Orcs. He also had the surname "Wilder" and was a member of the noble family with a high status.

Even he had a hard time living because of the pressure from the "Iciz" organization and the discrimination against the Orcs. In the end, he had no choice but to leave his hometown, not to mention others.

However, people would bear grudges. Even if they were forced to kill their own children under pressure, it did not mean that those parents would really believe the nonsense of the "Iciz" organization. They would feel that it was to protect the reputation of their family and glorify the gods that they believed in. On the contrary, they would secretly remember this matter, firmly engrave this hatred in their hearts, and wait for the opportunity to take revenge.

Therefore, this time, when Sui Xiong wanted to annihilate the "Iciz" organization, even within the Orc Empire, there were many people who applauded and even held private banquets to celebrate. There were also many parents who came to the burial place of their poor children who could not even have an official grave. They cried and smiled as they comforted the souls of the dead.

Many people who came to see the end of the leaders of the "Iciz" organization were like this.

In the end, almost every time a group of people was executed on the guillotine, there would be a large group of people cheering under the guillotine.

Their cheers joined together and echoed in the air of the "Great Golden Tent", and also passed into the palace.

"Did you hear that?" Morani, who was next to Junero, said, "Those guys are really boiling with resentment!"

"I didn't notice it before!" Junero sighed and shook his head. "If I knew that their resentment was so great, I should have taken action myself and cleaned up this tumor!"

"It's not that you didn't notice it, but you didn't pay attention to it." Morani shook his head and said, "Just like you and I, we didn't notice that His Majesty Lefon had hidden his strength."

"I remember that at that time, the two of us were called the 'Lion and Tiger Duo', the most popular to win the championship." Thinking of the past, Junero couldn't help but laugh. "In the blink of an eye, thousands of years have passed, and we are all old."

"Yes, even if the body doesn't age, the spirit will." Morani sighed softly and asked, "When are you going to leave the Main Plane? I will send you when the time comes. "

"Let's wait a little longer." Junero listened to the bursts of cheers coming from afar and shook his head with a bitter smile. "At least wait until this storm is over …"
