The moment Plorik was escorted out of the warehouse, his two brothers who stayed behind saw it all.

"Second brother! Why don't we fight these bastards, rescue big brother, and then escape to the outer domain! Once we are outside the domain, even Cyber ​​can't do anything to us!"

The always impatient Old Four immediately proposed a strategy of resistance.

"Shut up! Do you want to kill everyone? There are three thousand elite cavalrymen there. What can we use to fight them?!"

The second brother's eyes were full of anxiety, but he also rejected the fourth brother's idea at the first moment.

If they rebel against Cyber ​​inside the Sub-Saint Fortress, no one can save them.

"What should we do? Are we going to let them kill our big brother like this?!"

The fourth brother was scratching his head anxiously. They only found out yesterday that their eldest brother Plorrik had made a big gamble, but they didn't expect that the result of the gamble would come out so soon.

"Got it! Big brother said this morning that if anything happens to him, he should immediately find a girl named Elena at the address written on the paper. This lady can save him!"

The usually calm Second Brother, in his panic, finally remembered a trick that Plorlik had given him this morning.

He quickly opened the brocade bag, took out the note inside and opened it. It read "Vichy Hotel".

"Let's go! We must get to the Vichy Hotel as quickly as possible!"

After seeing these four words, the second brother put the note away and got on the carriage to the Vichy Hotel.

······

At this moment, inside the hotel, Elena was sitting in the room reading a book.

Seeing this, Margaret smiled and invited her:

"Alina, the weather is so nice today, why don't we go out for a walk."

Hearing this, Alina raised her head and looked out the window.

It was indeed a clear and cloudless sky outside.

It is almost autumn now, and it is not as hot outside as before. It is cool and comfortable. It is the best time to go out for an outing.

If it were any other time, Elena would definitely agree to Margaret's request, but today she refused.

"I'm sorry, Margaret, I may not be able to go out with you today."

Elina said with a smile, holding the book in her hands.

"What's wrong, Alina, what do you have to do today?"

Margaret asked curiously.

"Yes, I guess it won't be long before I have guests visiting."

Elina gave a mysterious smile.

"Huh? Is that so?"

Margaret tilted her head when she heard this. She didn't understand why Elena was so busy today, as someone had come to visit her in the morning.

"Dong dong dong."

Just when Margaret was feeling strange, there was a knock on the door.

"Please come in."

Elina said without turning her head.

"Squeak~"

The wooden door opened and a maid dressed in maid's clothes stood at the door.

"Lady Elina, there are two people outside the door who want to see you. They claim to be Mr. Plorik's brothers."

The maid bowed and said.

"Well, Margaret, I thought someone would come to visit me in a little while."

Elena blinked at Margaret, and her cute and smug look made Margaret feel at a loss whether to laugh or cry.

"Tell them to wait in the living room. I'll be downstairs."

Elina closed the book in her hand, put it on the desk, and prepared to go downstairs to meet the guest.

"Hey, wait a minute, you, don't you pay attention to your image?"

Just as Elena was about to leave, Margaret stopped her.

She only helped Elina to tidy up the wrinkles on her clothes and her hair before letting her leave the room.

Just as Margaret was cleaning up Elena upstairs, the fourth child downstairs was almost dying of anxiety.

The servants served them the best black tea and prepared delicious snacks for them.

But only the second child could sit down quietly and sip tea, while the fourth child felt like there were needles pricking his butt and could not sit still, so he stood there and paced back and forth.

"Second brother, do you think this Lady Elina can really save Big Brother?!"

"Brother, what if Lady Elina can't be rescued?!"

"Brother, that's Cyber. Does this man really have such great power?!"

The fourth brother's mouth was like a machine gun, chattering non-stop.

But to all his questions, his second brother responded with silence.

"Oh my! It's already this late, why are you still in the mood to drink tea!!"

Finally, the fourth brother was angered by his second brother's calm attitude. He snatched his second brother's teacup and slammed it hard on the tea table.

"Fourth brother..."

Looking at his anxious fourth brother, the second brother was about to say something, but was stopped by a voice coming from upstairs.

"You two must be Plorik's brothers."

When Elena appeared in front of them, they were all amazed.

The girl in front of me had long silver hair, eyes as vast as the sky and an angelic face. Although she still had some childish temperament now, in a few years she would definitely grow into a peerless beauty that would captivate the whole country.

To be honest, these two brothers have been together for so many years, but have never seen a beauty of this level.

"Greetings, Lady Elina!"

Among the two brothers, the second one was the first to react. He quickly patted the fourth one's leg, then stood up and bowed respectfully to Elena.

At this time, the fourth brother also reacted and saluted quickly.

This time they came to ask for help. The eldest brother's life is in the hands of this girl in front of him.

But before long, the doubts in their hearts began to spread again.

That is, can this beautiful girl with a bright smile in front of him really be a match for a great general like Cyber ​​who has guarded the Sub-Saint Fortress for decades?

Both brothers had doubts about this question in their hearts.

Chapter 16 The Power of Cyber

"If I'm guessing correctly, you're here for Plorik's matter. If that's the case, then it's great that you can come with me to the Court of Judgment."

Before the two brothers could speak, Elena had already told them the purpose of their visit.

They were even invited to go together, which made all their words of persuasion useless.

Originally, they were prepared to talk their mouths off, after all, this time they were facing Cyber, a temple-level strongman, and most people would definitely not be willing to lend a helping hand.

But from what the girl said, it seemed that she didn't take Cybor seriously at all?

Seeing Elina's confident look, for some reason, the two brothers also became very confident.

"Let's go, let's go together. Now is the perfect time."

Elina glanced at the clock hanging on the wall, smiled and walked out, while the two brothers looked at each other and followed Elina.

······

"Plorik, a caravan transported a batch of goods out of the country early this morning. Where was the goods sent to?"

Sitting on the judge's seat in the courtroom was Plorlik in shackles, and many citizens were sitting in the stands as spectators. Above sat four judges. When Plorlik saw these four judges, his heart immediately sank to the bottom.

Because these four people are all Cyber's confidants. If he is really convicted by them, his end will be very miserable.

"That batch of goods was shipped to the border troops. Because they were needed urgently, they were loaded and shipped at night."

Plorlik said expressionlessly that the most important thing for him now was to not let anyone understand his inner emotions through his expression.

"You are lying. To tell you the truth, your caravan was discovered when it just left the Sub-Saint Fortress. It was heading towards the Saint Bo Defense Line."

After hearing what Plorrik said, the youngest of the four mages retorted.

"So? Is there no human border troops on the Shengbo Defense Line?"

Plorlik gave the judge a sarcastic look, which left him speechless for a moment.

He had already decided that as long as he could explain himself until Lady Elina arrived, he would be saved.

"you!"

The judge who was speechless immediately widened his eyes. He wanted to say something, but he couldn't utter a word.

"Ahem, it seems that you do not admit that this batch of goods is shipped to Yas City. Then please come in, Mr. Bruce."

The older judge looked at the talkative guy with some dissatisfaction, then knocked the gavel and signaled Bruce to come in.

"Hello, your honor."

As soon as Bruce entered the witness stand, he bowed politely.

At this moment, his performance was completely different from the crazy him in the confinement room. All his movements were so elegant and precise, and he looked like a completely well-educated gentleman.

"Mr. Bruce, as the supervisor of the Cap Chamber of Commerce in the Sub-Saint Fortress area, have you approved Plorik's shipment request?"

one of the judges asked.

"No, your honor."

Bruce said, shaking his head.

"Moreover, when I asked to see the cargo information and delivery address, Minister Plolik also refused again and again, which is very unusual."

"Plorik, you should have nothing to say this time. Monitoring orders is the duty of the Inspector General, but you keep shirking your responsibilities. If you don't have something to hide, what else could it be?"

After receiving Bruce's confession, the judges immediately turned against Plorrick.

"If you want to convict me based on this alone..."

After hearing the judge's words, Plorik was about to refute, but was interrupted by Bruce.

"If it's just this, I can't convict you, but this delivery order is enough."

Bruce took out a long flow order from his pocket and handed it to the judges.

"Your Honor, everything is clearly recorded here. The shipping time, type, quantity and destination are all clearly marked. There is even the official seal of the Cap Chamber of Commerce and the signature of Minister Plorik. I think this should be enough."

How can it be?

How come this guy has a shipping order? !

Plorlik looked at Bruce in disbelief, because this time, in order to ensure that everything was foolproof, he did not write a shipping order. How could this impossible shipping order appear in Bruce's hands? !

"You actually made false evidence?!"

After just a little thought, Plorrick understood the connection. This delivery note was definitely not written by him. It must have been forged by Bruce.

"Plorik, you have nothing to say now, right? Your crime is clearly recorded on this order."

After receiving the order, the judges didn't even look at it and directly convicted him with a sneer.

"Judge! That order must be forged!!"

Plorik roared that if he was really convicted of colluding with foreign races, then he would have no way out, and that was death.

However, the judges seemed not to hear his shouting. They looked at Plorlik with sarcastic smiles on their faces. Then one of the oldest judges knocked the gavel and directly announced the verdict.

"The criminal, Plorik, colluded with foreign races and secretly transported supplies. According to the laws of the Empire, this court has sentenced you to death by hanging."

The judges were high and mighty, and the smiles on their faces were like those of the devil, completely cold and heartless.

As for the bystanders, they were more like a group of wooden men, without any movement. Even when they heard about the fabricated evidence, they did not raise any objection.
