Chapter 125 The Trial Is In Progress 5
Conan and his friends knew that Fontaine had never executed anyone before, and that at most they would be imprisoned in Melo Petersburg, so they decided to do this. How could there be a death sentence all of a sudden? ! And the person to be executed was the water god himself, which was really beyond their expectations.
After hearing the verdict, Mao Lilan also spoke anxiously: "Wait, can we withdraw the charges now? We want to cancel the charges, so does that mean the verdict of the cardinal who made the previous decree does not need to be executed?"
Under Mao Lilan's anxious and expectant gaze, Villette shook his head regretfully, "I'm sorry, the result of the decree ruling the cardinal cannot be taken back..."
Conan noticed something wrong with the result just read out: "But, the judge just said the death penalty for the God of Water, right? But Fucaros has been confirmed not to be the God of Water, so the person being tried by the Cardinal of the Allegory Judgment should not be Fucaros..."
Huiyuan added: "Yes, and if the person on trial is Fukaros, then the name she is given in the trial result is "Water God". Doesn't this mean that she is not pretending to be a god and deceiving the people? Doesn't this mean that she is not guilty?"
After listening to Conan and Huibara, Moroboshi whispered, "This is simply a paradox."
Yuan Tai also said, "That is to say, is there really nothing wrong with this decree or cardinal? Could it be that it is really wrong?"
Jiang Shou: "Didn't the magician say before that he heard a sound at the core of the cardinal? Maybe that's the signal of a malfunction."
Just as Villette was about to explain the parable and judge the cardinal, who was a creation of God and could hardly make mistakes, and that there must be something fishy about his verdict, the magician who was previously a suspect in the girl's disappearance seemed to have just received some news and stood up.
"Everyone, I think I roughly know what the sin of the "Water God" is?" the magician said loudly.
That Villette looked at the magician and asked him the reason in confusion.
The magician asked someone to bring up a few stone slabs, and then said: "Everyone should know that a relic was recently discovered in Baisong Town, and there are several stone slabs inside. But what everyone doesn't know is that the stone slabs in the ruins are not complete, and one is missing. When I heard that the content of the stone slabs was related to the prophecy, I have been spending manpower and material resources to find the missing stone slab..."
He sighed and continued to the audience: "I know everyone is curious about why I made such a prediction about Fontaine, but what I want to tell you is that Fontaine's prediction is not a joke, it is something that will definitely happen!!!"
"Although I come from the Hearth House of another country, I am also a Fontaine. Naturally, I cannot sit idly by and watch the danger predicted to happen. This is also the reason why I planned to take the risk to explore the divine creation of the Cardinal of the Parable Judgment."
auditorium.
"How could that be? Is he kidding? Isn't a prophecy just a legend?"
"Yes, the prophecy has been circulating for so long, and nothing special has happened."
"Well, that's not necessarily true. People can be dissolved in water. Hasn't the prophecy already verified part of it..."
Most of the audience didn't quite believe what the magician said, but some of them began to believe the prophecy and now seemed a little worried.
On the other side of the court, Conan and his friends were carefully observing several stone slabs that the magician carried onto the stage and discussing the information on them.
The magician ignored the doubts from the audience and continued, "Finally, our hard work paid off. We finally found the missing slate. From the content of the picture on the slate, we know one thing - the sin of all of us Fontaine people mentioned in the prophecy..."
Next, the magician explained in detail what the sins of the Fontaine people and even the water god were.
It turns out that all the Fontaine people were transformed by the previous water goddess Egolia by stealing the power of the original fetal sea in order to satisfy the pure water elves' desire to be reborn as humans. This is why only the Fontaine people can turn into pure water elves again when they come into contact with the water of the original fetal sea again.
This action was not allowed, so the Fontaine people had long been burdened with the original sin of "stealing the power of the original god's fetal sea"...
Conan stroked his chin.
So, if the previous water goddess Egolia was clear about the origin of the prophecy, then Fukalos, as her apparent successor, must also be aware of it. So why didn't she say it out loud?
Just as Conan and his friends were thinking with their heads down, and the rest of the audience were shocked and confused by the truth and the impending crisis, a security guard suddenly rushed in from outside the court.
Normally, when a trial is held at the Oprykle Opera House, no one would interrupt the court session unless there was something particularly important.
Now someone rushed into the trial scene without paying attention to the procedures, which meant that an unexpected emergency must have occurred. Xia Xi and others suddenly thought of the prophecy that had been mentioned during the game.
The words of the security team member who rushed in also confirmed this.
"Mister Inquisitor, something bad has happened! The Duke of Melo Petersburg has sent a message that the special sealing device deep underground has begun to fail. He is already dealing with it, but we still need you to rush over and seal it as soon as possible!"
"What?!" Upon hearing the news, Villette suddenly stood up, forgetting the previous trial results for a moment, and immediately said, "I'll be there right away!"
Fukaros also heard what the guards said. She changed her indifferent attitude when the magician introduced the contents of the stone tablet. Tears fell from the corners of her eyes and she said with self-blame and worry: "This is all my fault... It's all my fault. I failed to do what I promised... and failed to... protect you..."
Mitsuhiko keenly noticed the location mentioned by the guards and said, "We have heard before that the prison of Melo Petersburg is underwater. Now it seems that something is wrong. Could this be the reason for the rising sea level mentioned in the prophecy..."
Conan immediately realized that what Mitsuhiko said was very likely, and turned around and shouted: "Sister Xiaolan, Sister Xia Xi..."
Before he could express his thoughts, Xia Xi, who had already guessed, shouted to Villette: "Your Excellency the Inquisitor, let's go to Melo Petersburg with us. Maybe we can be of some help."
Navilette glanced at the children who made up most of Xia Xi's group and was about to refuse when suddenly a violent earthquake in the opera house interrupted him.
