Unless Lin Jiu'an possesses the strength of Grand Master Falgar, even if Lisa, Yura, Luminous, and even Diluc, who have secretly colluded with him these past few days, were to come to his rescue, he would still be doomed to die today.
Is that even possible?
Frederica gave the middle-aged knight a slight nod, a faint smile in her eyes.
The next moment, her smile froze on her face.
Several knights who had been prepared in advance immediately made their move, but Lin Jiu'an easily subdued one of them, took his weapon, and then several heads flew into the air.
Even the middle-aged knight, whose strength surpassed Bartley's, couldn't last five rounds against Lin Jiu'an?
A few breaths later, Frederica was completely stunned as she looked at the middle-aged knight's fallen corpse.
The Mondstadt citizens, who had initially been somewhat confident and ready to watch the Knights subdue the villains in public, were thrown into complete chaos after seeing that the new acting Grand Master had died.
Screaming and running, the huge square, which housed tens of thousands of people, and the densely packed steps below were constantly being pushed and shoved.
Those who arrived early and managed to get a good spot now wished they could sprout wings and fly away.
Sudden.
Several wind blades rushed into the crowd.
Blood splattered everywhere.
The crowd fell silent instantly.
"Whoever moves, dies."
Several more wind blades sliced into pieces the people who were trying to sneak away in the crowd, along with the 'innocent' people nearby. After that, no one dared to move again.
At this moment, Lin Jiu'an, the instigator, smiled at Ying, who was already dumbfounded.
"See, why waste time talking to them?"
"Isn't this great?"
"Some people are just despicable."
"They won't listen to you even if you talk to them nicely, but you..."
Another sound of flesh being torn apart.
As the old pastor let out a pitiful wail, his other arm was forcibly torn off by Lin Jiu'an.
Blood splattered onto Lin Jiu'an's face, adding an eerie touch to his smile.
Lin Jiu'an then began to speak, whether to Ying, the common people, or simply to his past self.
"You take the knife and slash them a few times."
"They're willing, no, they're begging you to talk to them properly."
Ying opened her mouth, looking at Lin Jiu'an in front of her with a sense of unfamiliarity, as if the other party had gone mad.
Isn't this a bit too extreme?
Ying even forgot that she had come to save Lin Jiu'an. Looking at the innocent people below who were dying tragically, she suddenly felt like stopping him.
"Don't believe it."
"Just like Yura."
"Not to mention the crimes committed by the Fools in the six kingdoms, were the crimes they committed in Mondstadt alone few?"
"But do you think they dare to utter a single fart?"
"Do you dare to treat the fools the same way you treated Yura?"
"They don't dare."
"They didn't even dare to offend the Fools. Even though they knew that the Fools were responsible for some of the things, they still had to respectfully smile and compensate the Fools for their 'losses' when faced with their accusations."
"Because they know that they dare to face so many Fools, and the Fools really will kill them; but Yura is different, they know that no matter how much they bully Yura, Yura will not retaliate against them."
Lin Jiu'an spread his hands and said with a smile, "We bow and scrape to the powerful, and brandish our butcher's knives at the weak."
"This is Mondstadt."
Chapter Thirty: Could you please kneel down before me?
Every single word Lin Jiu'an uttered reached their ears.
Some people wanted to refute this.
But as soon as they made a sound, a wind blade struck their heads, taking their lives.
gradually.
No one spoke.
Even if people's faces are full of humiliation, they will only lower their heads and silently hide this humiliation in their hearts, even fearing that Lin Jiu'an will discover their dissatisfaction and hatred towards him.
Lin Jiu'an pointed to a nearby audience member.
"I'm saying that everything this old man said he did, what do you think?"
The man glanced instinctively at the frail, elderly pastor and felt a sense of absurdity.
next second.
A single wind blade devoured him completely.
Lin Jiu'an looked at the person next to him and asked, "And you?"
"It was him! It was definitely him! I knew he was no good!"
Lin Jiu'an's smile remained unchanged as he waved to him, "Come here."
The other person walked over with a fawning smile, but as soon as he arrived, Lin Jiu'an slapped him to the ground.
"Don't you have your own brain?"
"How could such a useless old man slaughter so many people?"
Then Lin Jiu'an looked at another person and asked, "What do you think?"
"I think you're right," the other person said with a fawning smile.
Lin Jiu'an nodded slightly in satisfaction.
He then asked, "May I ask you to kneel down?"
This wasn't said to him alone, but to all of them.
Ying couldn't help but say, "Isn't this a bit...?"
The words were not finished.
Seeing the indifferent smile in Lin Jiu'an's eyes, Ying ultimately swallowed her words of advice, regretting her loose tongue.
Anyway, she dislikes them a lot, and she's siding with her family regardless of right or wrong, right?
As Lin Jiu'an's gaze swept over...
The sounds of 'thump, thump' echoed continuously as Mondstadt residents, unable to withstand the pressure, knelt on the ground, lowering their heads and not daring to look Lin Jiu'an in the eye.
Lin Jiu'an's solution for those who had self-respect and refused to kneel was also very simple.
One, two, five, ten...
As one by one those who failed to kneel in time were torn to shreds by the wind blades, tens of thousands of Mondstadt residents who had come to witness the trial knelt on the ground in the vast square and on the several tiers of steps.
"Didn't you say you were going to put me on trial?"
Lin Jiu'an sneered, "Why are you all kneeling now?"
Because you killed all those who didn't want to kneel.
Ying thought to herself, "This is what I'm complaining about."
But looking at those obedient Mondstadt residents kneeling down, I felt utterly disgusted.
She had tried to present the facts and reason things out properly, but it was no match for the slanderous remarks of some bad people, who all clamored for her to pay the price as a 'sinner'.
What now?
Lin Jiu'an, with an attitude of "I am the villain!", held a knife to their necks, and they all knelt down faster than anyone else.
As Ying thought about it, she completely lost all sympathy for them.
If they had been more rational, if they hadn't kicked him while he was down, would Lin Jiu'an have turned out like this?
"And you? Are you going to kneel down before me?"
Lin Jiu'an turned to look at the nobles and knights who were observing the trial.
It is worth mentioning that because of the massacre that Lin Jiu'an committed at Feng Hua Mansion, it can be said that almost everyone in the upper echelons of Mondstadt was involved, so almost all of Mondstadt's upper echelons came to watch this trial.
"You executioner, you will surely get your comeuppance!"
An old man whose son had been killed by Lin Jiu'an pointed angrily at him, but before he could finish speaking, a wind blade took his head, leaving only his headless corpse and the finger still pointing at Lin Jiu'an.
"Aren't you afraid that Grand Master Falgar will come back?" a knight couldn't help but ask.
“I don’t know when Falgar will return, but I do know that you won’t live to see that time.”
next second.
The knight's heart was pierced by the wind blade.
"You murderer!" a nun roared. "The Wind God will never let you get away with this!"
"So you know about the Wind God now?"
Lin Jiu'an smiled and waved his hand, a wind blade directly cleaving her in half at the waist into 0.5 nuns.
Lin Jiu'an would kill anyone who dared to speak.
The nun was crawling on the ground, her upper body the only thing left, groaning in pain.
The remaining nobles and knights were utterly terrified, each one silent and fearful that they might anger him and be killed by a single wind blade.
"I am not someone who likes to force people."
"Three seconds."
"If you don't want to kneel down to me, then you don't have to force yourself. It's okay, you don't have to kneel."
As he spoke, Lin Jiu'an smiled and raised three fingers.
"three."
The voice just fell.
A whole bunch of nobles and knights knelt down in a flurry.
"two."
Another large portion of the nobles and knights knelt on the ground.
"zero."
The remaining nobles and knights were taken aback.
Why is it zero?
What about one?
The instant the thought flashed through their minds, they saw the wind blades hurtling towards them.
This was the last thing they saw.
Frederica was utterly terrified when she saw the nobles and knights who had been killed.
She had been thinking of waiting until the last second to kneel down, but when she heard the number 'two,' her legs went weak and she couldn't hold on any longer, so she knelt down.
If it weren't for that, she would be...
Frederica's lower body was already wet.
Looking at the incredibly powerful Lin Jiu'an, who was smiling and slaughtering at will, there was no longer a trace of resentment in his heart, only submission.
"very good."
"Since you all seem to know what's good for you, let's move on to the next game."
besides?
