Chapter 195

As to whether Tirion Verdin's behavior constituted treason, silver hand decided that the other four first generation paladins should be judges to hold a public trial on old Verdin, which was set in the central square of Nanhai town at the insistence of fording.

Ironically, it used to be the first stop for storm City refugees to seek asylum in Lordaeron, but now it is the court for judging whether a paladin has betrayed his country for helping the orcs.

Public trial means that everyone can watch the trial process, that is to say, the possible consequences of this trial will be far beyond the trial itself.

……………………

The gate of darkness lasts 17 years and January.

The central square of Nanhai town has been transformed into a temporary court.

Uther, tulayan, dassohan and gavenrad were seated in the judge's seat.

Before the official trial, Uther asked old Fordring for the last time: "are you sure you won't submit new evidence for trial in the present situation?"

"Sure." Old fording was very indifferent, "but I will not give up my defense."

"Of course." Uther nodded. "You have the right to defend, just as you have the right to justice."

It was noon and the court officially began the trial.

"Tirion Fordring, do you admit that you have concealed the existence of the orc sword master etregh, regardless of the Lord's duty, and failed to report it in time?"

"I admit it."

The crowd frowned one after another. Old fording's admission did not hesitate, giving people a strong sense of no guilt, which is undoubtedly very uncomfortable for the common people.

We should know that among the civilians in Nanhai Town, a considerable number of them were refugees who had escaped from the kingdom of Fengfeng city. Although they did not return to Fengfeng city after the end of the war, they did not mean that they would forgive the orcs.

"Tirion Fordring, do you admit that you have used holy healing to help the dying Orc Guyer, and still deliberately conceal it despite the Lord's duty?"

"I admit it."

If the people were just dissatisfied, now they are angry.

"Traitor" and "scum" are constantly shouting and scolding. If it was not for the silver hand to maintain order, maybe now old fording's body was full of tomatoes and rotten eggs.

"Tyrion Fordring, do you accept charges of malfeasance?"

"I accept it."

"Tyrion Fordring, do you accept charges of treason?"

"I don't accept it."

"Do you defend the charges of treason?"

"Yes, I will defend."

"You can argue, and we won't want you to defend yourself."

Old fording looked up for the first time and looked at the crowd that filled the square. He looked more like a speech.

"Citizens of Nanhai town! I stand here today to defend, not for myself, but for all mankind! "

"The war with the orcs has been over for nine years. During these nine years, we have enjoyed peace. Many of the soldiers who participated in the war, like me, have already established their families. We have families that we cherish."

"I once vowed to protect my family - I believe all of you here share the same feelings as me. We have our own guardianship. This is the fundamental reason why human beings can develop to today."

"And the orcs? To many people, orcs are bloodthirsty and terrifying Monsters - even myself, until I met itriger. This Orc veteran let me know that orcs also had their own noble past. Most of their bloodthirsty and bloodthirsty came from the influence of the blood of demons in their bodies. "

"Then I hesitated and pondered until I met an orc shaman. I saw with my own eyes that Azeroth's elements responded to the Shaman's request, and I realized that not all orcs were evil men

"If it's another fugitive who's been through the orc war, no matter how pathetic he looks, I'll bring him to justice, but guyl is not."

"We didn't know that there was an orc tribe called the frost wolf clan. When Durotan, their leader, came to Azeroth, he was assassinated for resisting the enslavement of demons, and the whole clan lived in seclusion in the cold Alterac Valley. We did not know that durontan's son grew up in dunhold castle, and this Orc who did not do anything wrong got what he got It was more than ten years' imprisonment; we didn't know before that there was also an orc named kirrog who was on the expedition to Delano. After he got rid of the enslavement of demon Island, he launched a charge against the powerful voice element Lord at the cost of his life. We didn't know that the Orcs also had human nature. Itrige knelt down in front of me in the middle of the night and asked me to save this one Son of heroes - I have no reason to refuse. "

"After so long fighting, what we really need to think about is who is still threatening us - not orcs, but demons, orcs are also victims of the Burning Legion!""No race is destined to be noble. The king of Alterac betrayed his own people in times of crisis, while kirrog could sacrifice his life for other races. I have seen the most noble orcs, but I have also seen the most shameless human race. Race is just a kind of origin, but it does not represent glory. I believe that any intelligent creature with protection can communicate and communicate with each other Communicating! "

"This is my defense! I admit that, in any case, as a paladin and Lord, my conduct was negligent. But beyond that, I believe that all I do is for human beings. The reason why we are noble is that we insist on our own goodness and justice. If we lose the goodness and justice and simply and roughly define the guilt of all alien races, then what is the difference between this and the original bloodthirsty orcs? "

"Don't forget the aliens who helped us, the dragons who fought with us, the panda people and the draynes who took part in the expedition - the innocent orcs may one day become such and our partners."

"I'm willing to accept all the charges against myself. There are mistakes in my actions, but I insist that etregue and guyl are not guilty, and I believe the judge will give me a truly fair verdict - and a fair verdict for an innocent ORC."

After the end of the defense, tirioferdin was quietly waiting for the trial. He had said everything he wanted to say in his heart. For him, the trial was over.

In old fording's heart, the holy light was incomparably bright.
