Chapter 117 Officially ascended the throne

During the rebellion, the City of Holy Light was the Ninth Legion and the City Guards Legion responsible for attacking. The Imperial Guards at that time suffered heavy losses without any defense. But then the joining of Derik Raymont and other lower gods quickly stabilized the front.

Afterwards, Derik and others went deep into the enemy and killed the commanders of the Ninth Legion and the City Guards and a group of senior generals. Without unified command, the Ninth Legion and the City Guards were defeated by the Imperial Guards soon. Most of the soldiers chose to surrender.

At that time, the streets of Holy Light City were full of dead bodies and blood. However, after the rebellion was put down, it was immediately cleaned up. But even now, it seemed that a faint smell of blood could still be smelled.

On the second day after His Majesty Reagan's funeral, all the nobles and representatives of civilians from the City of Holy Light gathered on the large square of Holy Light, with hundreds of thousands of people.

In the center of the square, four thick copper pillars were erected, and underneath the copper pillars were bundles of dry firewood. Everyone was told that stolen will be held here today. Four people who turned against the light and tried to drag the entire empire into darkness will be executed here to purify the sins they committed.

"Stolen! I still remember the last stolen stolen, about five years ago. That time I caught a necromancer, but many people watched it. The necromancer was really ugly, and his whole body was no different from a skeleton stool."

"I heard that the targets of this stolen are all big shots. It is said that there are foreign ministers and finance ministers!"

"What are the Minister of State and the Minister of Finance? I heard from a noble relative that today's stolen targets are two imperial princes in addition to the Minister of State and the Minister of Finance!"

"Oh! And the Imperial Prince?"

"I heard that the four of them had conspired to rebel and colluded with the Shadow Church and the Undead Union, but they had been defeated by the great Holy See."

"I really don't know what these big men are thinking. The God of Light loves the world, why do they still want to defect to the darkness?" someone shook his head and said.

"Of course it's for the throne, what else can I do? It is said that many nobles do not support the two princes, so they colluded with the Shadow Church and the Undead Union to conspire to rebel." Someone knows something inside.

"That's right! Then they really deserve to die."

This is like a grand event for the people of the Light Empire. It is also a warning. Think about it, even the prince colluded with these great nobles to the Shadow Church and the Undead Trade Union, would be sentenced to stolen, let alone the common people.

In addition, through charitable lottery, the Holy See accumulated a lot of wealth to help the poor, deepening the Holy See's image of kindness in the hearts of the people. People's belief in the God of Light has become more firm.

At 10 a.m., the stake officially began. The trial was chaired by Elliott himself.

A simple platform was built before four thick stakes. Elliott and Prince Patton, the representative of the royal family, sat on it.

A team of Holy See's guards in gorgeous armor escorted Rubin, Rex, Dean Carter, James Morgan and others. The fighting spirit and magic of the four people had long been abolished, and they were so weak that they were not as good as ordinary people.

The four of them wore white prison clothes, disheveled hair, pale faces without a trace of blood, and had long lost their original spirit. When they received the promise of the Shadow Church and decided to launch a rebellion, they never expected that such a day would come.

"Dean Carter, James Morgan, as important officials of the Empire and hereditary dukes of the Empire. He did not want to serve the country and preach the light, but instead bewitched the two princes, intending to rebel, betray the light, and surrender to the darkness. In view of the crimes and punishments committed by the two, according to the precepts promulgated by the Holy See of Light, the two are sentenced to be executed immediately!" Elliot said loudly.

As soon as he finished his thoughts, several knights, who were like wolves and tigers, immediately dragged the two of them up, and tied them up high on the stake.

During this process, the two were completely like dead dogs, without any resistance. They had learned that their family had been secretly executed by the Imperial Guard last night.

"Rubin Raymont, Rex Raymont, as the prince of the Empire, did not want to serve the country and fight for the God of Light. Instead, he colluded with the Shadow Church and the Undead Trade Union to launch a rebellion, intending to reach the peak of the Light Empire. He also betrayed the Light and surrendered to the Darkness. In view of the crimes and punishments they committed, according to the precepts promulgated by the Holy See of Light, the two were sentenced to stolen and executed immediately!"

Another team of knights dragged Rubin and Rex to the stake, and they kicked and made a fuss, screaming dissatisfaction. However, their resistance was so powerless. No one pleaded for them. They began to curse the ninth prince Donald, curse Wang Biao, and even curse their ancestor Carl. If it weren't for him, their rebellion would have been successful now. How could there be the tragic situation now?

"Execution!" Eliot ordered loudly.

Several torches were thrown on the dry firewood below the stake. The dry firewood had been poured with grease, and when it encountered Mars, it immediately started to burn.

Slowly, the stake began to get hot. Rubin and others let out inhuman screams and begging for mercy, which made people feel creepy.

Finally, when the dry firewood burned out, the stake was already burning red. The few people tied to the stake by thick iron chains had already been burned to coke. The air was filled with the smell of barbecue, which seemed to have a strange fragrance.

Anyone who witnessed this stolen lost interest in meat for a long time. In severe cases, they even vomited when they saw barbecue.

On the afternoon of the day when Rubin and others were executed, the election for candidates for the throne officially began. Prince Lei Zhe clearly stated that he was not suitable to be the emperor of the empire and gave up his qualifications as candidates for the throne. So far, among the four candidates for the throne, Donald was the only one left.

Those powerful and governors who have the right to vote, those who oppose Donald were also ordered to be killed by Carl yesterday, and the rest were all Donald's supporters.

The result of this was that Donald was unanimously elected as the new emperor of the empire.

According to convention, the new emperor will officially ascend the throne in one week, accept the crown of the Archbishop, and become the legal emperor of the Empire of Light.

The entire process of ascension will be very cumbersome and there are many things to prepare. Among them, the two most important things are worshipping the ancestors of the Raymont family and going to St. John's Cathedral to receive the crown of the Archbishop.

During the whole process, Donald was undoubtedly the hardest and most exciting. The tedious process made him very hard, but the real success made him very excited.
