When Chen Qi's deafening voice fell, it was like a bomb dropped in the courtroom, causing everyone to explode.
In the gallery, apart from the reporters and nobles who were there simply to watch the fun, the rest were all people who supported Chen Qi.
After Chen Qi finished speaking, someone immediately saw hope and shouted, "We are on the way to victory!"
"Qi is not guilty! He was forced just like us!"
"We can't survive because of taxes! Is a march considered treason?"
"That's right! You are the traitors!"
Facing the waves of condemnation from the audience, Dilov's expression was extremely ugly, his face was as red as pig liver, but he did not dare to say the words "You are all traitors" that were on the tip of his tongue.
Because he knew that this trial was being broadcast live in Leitania under his arrangement!
Leitania is indeed a country that belongs to the nobility.
Everyone in Leitania knows this.
Even the Witch King and the Twin Queens would be overthrown without the support of the Electors.
The electors have proven time and again that when they work together, they can overthrow everything.
But no one dares to say such words openly!
Because they know very well that although they have their own private armed forces, their own territories and jurisdictions.
But their wealth, their military power, everything comes from the countless ordinary and vast Leitanian people.
Once Dilov dared to say in this public trial that "anyone who dares to resist them is a traitor and should be executed."
Then, the countless long-suppressed indignation of the people of Leitania will cause a huge storm along with Qi's death!
This is equivalent to Dilov, the representative of the nobles, unscrupulously announcing to all the people of Leitania:
"You are like grass, destined to be slaves to us nobles for generations. No matter how we nobles oppress you, you have no right to resist."
This will be a devastating blow to the rule and governance of the nobles!
A prayer is not terrible.
What’s terrifying is that after people saw the ugly nature of the nobles, countless people inherited his will and decided to fight for freedom and survival!
This force is more terrifying than any strong man or any noble's private army.
That's why Dilov wanted to nip the problem in the bud as quickly as possible and cut off all the buds that might lead to the people's "awakening".
But looking at the out-of-control situation in front of him and the countless cameras, Dilov, with a livid face, had already vaguely realized...
It's too late for all this.
"Silence! Silence!"
Faced with a court that was once again out of control, the judge felt more and more pressure. He kept banging the gavel, but the effect was minimal.
Just when the judge was about to ask the bailiff to remove all the noisy people from the courtroom, Chen Qi in the dock spoke again.
"Judge, I would like to ask you a question."
"If a thief steals something that belongs to you and you take it back, does that make you a thief?"
"This……"
However, the judge had never expected that the defendant would ask him questions, and he was speechless for a moment.
The judge's acquiescence was exactly what Chen Qi wanted to see.
"When the Four Emperors' War broke out, I formed a new regiment with the children of ordinary civilians and went to the front battlefield together."
"In the first battle, our regiment suffered heavy casualties. Only a few people, including me, survived."
"But none of us were cowardly. We threw ourselves into the most dangerous battles and took on the most dangerous positions. In the end, I was the only one who survived out of the entire regiment of new soldiers."
"This first-class Iron Cross on my chest was awarded on the battlefield."
"This is not only a testament to my merits, this medal also carries the achievements of everyone in the New Regiment!"
Chen Qi turned his back and met the eager, expectant eyes in the audience.
His voice seemed to have magical power, driving the emotions of everyone present.
"Will anyone say that the new soldiers who fought on the front lines for Leitania are traitors?"
"will not!"
At this moment, the disguised Qian understood almost instantly and was the first to take the lead in shouting out this deafening response.
With Jian taking the lead, the people in the audience seemed to quickly gain confidence and responded to Chen Qi with excited and resolute voices.
"No!"
On the other side, the jury, as well as the recorder and others, looked at each other, but no one dared to express a different opinion from those in the gallery.
After all, the scene is still being broadcast live.
I don't know how many retired and active soldiers, and even the private armies of the nobility, were watching this trial in front of the TV.
If they dare to say that the actions of the brave soldiers who fought for their country are treason... then who will fight the war in Leithania tomorrow?
The jury's silence left Chen Qi with no more obstacles to speak.
"If there is betrayal, it was the people who fought and shed blood for Leitania who were betrayed."
"When we won the war against Gaul, broke the Gaul's backbone, and returned home as heroes, what were some people doing?"
"They are plotting a coup to remove the Witch King, who led Leithania to this victory, from his high tower!"
"This is true treason!"
Chen Qi did not explicitly say who "they" were, but the answer to this question emerged in the minds of everyone in the court.
Apart from the Electors, who else has the power to overthrow the Witch King?
Chen Qi's words once again caused an uproar, and all those who supported Chen Qi in the audience burst into extremely warm applause and cheers.
Because his words are exactly what they want to say in their hearts but dare not say!
"--Judge!"
However, when he realized that Chen Qi had finally pointed his finger at the nobles, Dilov could no longer sit idly by.
He hurriedly approached the judge's seat and shouted:
"This is a trial, not a speech!"
"…Mr. Earl, please calm down."
However, the judge was now so engrossed in what was being said that he did not even look at Diluofu. He stared at Chen Qi's back and just waved his hand, signaling Diluofu to stop his accusation.
But the judge's action completely stunned Dilov.
What's happening here?
How dare a mere judge disobey the orders of a count?
How dare those insignificant civilians in the gallery cause trouble in the court?
In the audience, Gertrude was also looking around in confusion. Those people who were mobilized by Chen Qi alone were stunned for a moment.
This guy... can actually do this? !
Turn this trial into his home court?
"We just want to take back everything we deserve, everything we deserve as heroes and as people!"
"We should have been treated like heroes, but the incompetent new government has left us torn apart and burdened with a heavier burden than during the war."
Chen Qi had already walked out from the dock. He stood very naturally in the center of the courtroom, in the most watched position.
However, there was no longer any voice opposing him around.
Everyone held their breath, staring at him with enthusiasm, admiration, or anxiety.
At this moment, he is the only master here.
“So, we took to the streets and marched to regain the benefits we deserved.”
"We didn't resort to violence, no!"
Chen Qi walked towards the gallery and pointed his finger at Gertrude, whom he had already noticed.
"Ms. Countess Gertrude, provided us with the paperwork for our parade!"
"All those who followed me didn't have a single weapon on them! From the time I was arrested until this march, no soldier was injured. The only casualties were civilians!"
"If the Earl insists that I am guilty——"
Chen Qi suddenly turned around again, staring at the speechless Diluofu, and approached him aggressively.
Because of his height advantage, Chen Qi's figure blocked the sunlight in front of Diluofu, so that Diluofu could not see Chen Qi's face clearly.
He could only see Chen Qi's blood-red long horns, which were still extremely conspicuous under the shadow.
"Then my crime is that I gave everything to protect the rights of the Leitanians."
"Excuse me, is this the crime you want to sentence me for, Your Excellency?"
"You, you, you are..."
However, at this time, Diluofu's face changed drastically and he had no time to listen to Chen Qi's words anymore.
His brain has been attacked by the memory of the dead.
Looking at the familiar long horns, Dilov seemed to have hallucinations in front of his eyes for a moment.
The majestic, powerful, and tyrannical figure of the Witch King, which had been buried deep in his memory, suddenly overlapped in his mind with Chen Qi, who was full of aura and had eyes as sharp as a sword, in front of him.
"Witch, Witch King!"
"That's right! You are the Witch King! You are the Witch King!!"
It was just a hallucination, but the intense fear of the Witch King that was awakened in his heart drove the stimulated earl into madness!
The earl, who was sitting on the floor, yelled hysterically, then fell to his knees with a terrified look on his face, and looked at Chen Qi...
No, it should be said that he kept bowing and begging for mercy towards the "Witch King" in front of him.
"Your Majesty the Wizard King! Your Majesty the Wizard King, please spare my life! Please spare my life!"
"I didn't betray Your Majesty! I didn't betray you! Please spare my life, Your Majesty! Please spare my life!"
For a moment, the entire court fell into an eerie silence.
No one, even Chen Qi himself, knew what they had done to cause the earl, who was full of confidence, to suddenly become so crazy.
As a count...even if you didn't get the title on the battlefield, your mental quality shouldn't be that bad, right?
Or is the shadow that the Witch King casts on this group of nobles really that strong?
However, regardless of whether Chen Qi reacted or not, countless cameras broadcast this scene live to everyone in Leitania...
This is destined to bring Chen Qi's reputation in the hearts of the people of Leithania to a new peak.
Because he was the first person who, as a commoner, drove a noble to madness in court.
He is also the only person in Leitania today who really makes people believe that he is fighting for the people of Leitania!
This trial, no matter what the outcome.
He has already left his name in history.
"Crack, snap, snap."
"——Well said, it is indeed a brilliant eloquence, Your Excellency."
However, it was a friendly yet dignified female voice that broke the eerie silence in the courtroom.
Accompanied by the slow applause, Chen Qi turned around and saw the figure walking into the courtroom from the gate.
It was a noble figure with gold and white combined into one.
And the moment she stepped into the courtroom, everyone who saw her face changed their expressions in an instant, and they all knelt on the ground in their most emotional and sincere gestures.
"Your Majesty."
The person who came was none other than the "White Queen", one of the Twin Queens, Liselotte Ivignad.
She is not strong, but her gentle aura is enough to make people kneel down willingly.
