The smile on Remil's face froze.
Five White Stones!!!
Just one, the last one, and this guy who had been pestering the Holy City for so long would be found not guilty!
Remil took a deep breath. He did not expect the number of white stones to appear so frequently.
"The seventh one …" The old priest drew the seventh Stone.
However, everyone in the Holy Hall remained calm. The main reason was that this chess piece wasn't the deciding piece, nor was it the last piece. If nothing unexpected happened, it should be the opponent's turn. The rest of the stones were all black!
Black.
It represented the Holy City.
White did not completely represent Mofan. To a certain extent, it represented the dissatisfaction and resistance of the Holy City from all over the world!
This time, the old Divine Priest's expression became strange. His drooping eyes were unexpectedly opened to the extreme. His turbid eyes blossomed with a radiance of disbelief as he stared unwaveringly at the stone in his hand!
He did not dare to read it aloud!!
The previous six times, he had read it aloud and displayed the Stone for everyone to see. His movements were slow and calm.
However, this time, his body trembled slightly.
"White … white."
Finally, the old priest opened his mouth.
He was an old man in his seventies. He knew better than anyone what this verdict meant. Therefore, when he saw the seventh Stone, he could not stand still. It was as if he saw an unprecedented turmoil erupting in this verdict!!!
White!!
Not guilty!!
The seventh Stone was still white!!
There were only eleven white stones in total. When the seventh stone was read, the verdict was out!!!
Not guilty!!
Six white stones. Mofan's verdict was — not guilty!!
The entire Holy Hall suddenly became even more silent. The priests looked at each other in dismay.
The jury and the representatives of the major forces did not dare to make a sound at this time. Everyone's faces were filled with shock, but the problem was that they were the ones who threw the white stones, so they should be well aware of it!
"Continue." At this moment, a cold voice came from the corner. He was ordering the old priest to continue reading the rest of the Stone.
"Is there still a need to read it? The verdict is out," said Zu Huanyao.
"I said continue!" Michael stood up and stared at the old priest.
The old priest lowered his head and showed the verdict of the seventh Stone to everyone.
After that, he took out the eighth Stone.
"The eighth stone, white … white."
White!!
White again!!!
This white stone was like a slap to the face of Archangel Remil and Michael.
The old priest was already trembling. He would never have thought that there would be as many as seven white stones!!
"Let's continue!" Michael said again.
The Holy Hall began to become restless, and the representatives of the various factions began to show fear on their faces.
"The ninth stone, white." The old priest took the ninth stone was still white.
White!
White!!!!
During this long trial, the Holy City had even controlled public opinion. In the end, even the Holy Court had failed to control it well. There were eight white stones, each of which represented the most important and authoritative organization in the world!
"The tenth stone, white."
"The eleventh stone, white."
The old priest no longer dared to read the names one by one. He took out the remaining Stone. It was like a white Sun Stone had ignited the Holy Court's attention!!
Ten white Stone were displayed on the stage.
It was a lonely black one.
It was too easy to judge the outcome. Apart from the Stone representing the Holy Judgment Court and the Holy City, which had firmly declared Mofan guilty, the rest of the Stones were all white!
Mofan was not guilty …
Every organization in the world believed Mofan was not guilty.
However, no one was happy about it.
Even Mofan could not force a smile on his face when he saw the verdict.
White?
Black?
Heh, how funny.
He had placed his hopes on these meaningless stones. How could he have forgotten something more important?
"Not guilty! Mofan is not guilty! "
Cheers broke out outside the Holy Court.
Mofan had saved many cities and people. When Mofan was in danger, many people had come to the Holy City to support Mofan and hope that Mofan was not guilty.
They could not help but cheer when the verdict was announced.
How could their savior possibly be a demon? Mo Fan, who had shown up in front of them while they were being tortured by the pain, was more like an angel that was roaming the world.
They were willing to testify in court and stay in the Holy City, hoping that Mofan was not guilty.
They were happy for Mofan. They cheered excitedly.
Similarly, many people in China cheered too. They all knew what Mofan had done for their country during the battle against the sea monsters.
He had indeed saved many people, so much so that when he was declared not guilty, many cities in the country cheered loudly, as if they were celebrating the return of a true hero.
The cheers were passionate across the world.
However, the atmosphere in the Holy Court was gloomy.
The representatives, the jurors, the Clerics, the Archangels …
Mofan, Ling Ling, and the people who knew the truth were all gloomy too.
When the seventh Stone was announced, Ling Ling almost had the urge to give Mofan a warm hug.
They had won!
But it didn't take long for Lingling to realize something.
She fell into deep thought. She began to worry. Her face was filled with uneasiness.
White!
Apart from the Holy Judgment Court's black Stone, the rest were all white!
On the surface, everyone was supporting Mofan's innocence.
…
"Everyone, why are you looking at me like that? Are you afraid?" Archangel Michael slowly walked to the center of the Holy Court.
The representatives of the factions remained silent. They stared at Archangel Michael. They were indeed afraid.
Once the verdict was announced, they might never be able to leave the Holy City.
However, little did they know, the other factions had also chosen white.
White …
If Mo Fan only had one more White Crystal, he would be acquitted, and the Sacred City would be infuriated. They would search for the factions that had chosen to side with White Crystals, and gradually take back control of the Sacred City.
The Holy City's target would be the factions in white, to make them obedient again.
However, the fact that all the Stones were white did not mean that Mofan was noble, but that Mofan had become a chess piece of the world!
A chess piece that had crossed the line between the two factions!
It was an army that the organizations in the world had joined forces to attack the Holy City!
He was innocent, but he had committed the most serious crime!
