Outside the Lightning Gates, there were purple-armored cavalry and infantry, numbering up to 5,000.
In the four directions, southeast, northwest, and northeast, experts from different departments and divisions were stationed. In the southwest, northwest, and north, there were tall platforms setup.
Dannie, Criston, and Jonah each occupied a position. Among the crowd of onlookers, there were also hundreds of experts of Heavenly Phase.
“It’s a quarter past noon!” A soldier shouted, raising his sword.
The heavy palace gates slowly opened, and Elon and Laroy, both bound head to toe with spiritual energy-suppressing ropes, along with Allegra behind them, were each confined in iron cages and pulled out by a carriage.
The crowd on the outskirts became agitated, and faint sounds of crying and shouting began to spread.
Many of the onlookers were quietly shedding tears, as they had all been beneficiaries of Elon’s kindness. Before becoming the commander, Elon had spent a significant amount of time serving as the city lord of three or four different cities.
The scorching sun overhead made it hard for the disheveled Elon and his two companions to keep their eyes open.
When they squinted up, all they could see were the heads of people around them.
When Elon and Laroy saw the words “Lightning Gates” above them, they immediately understood what was going to happen.
“I never imagined they’d make such a big deal out of killing our leader,” Elon sneered, glancing over at Dannie who was seated to the south.
In the last iron cage, Allegra looked around in terror. She had regained favonovel.com memory and fled from Mt. Danpur.
That night, Allegra was captured by a large group of city guards. It was only then that favonovel.com realized this world was completely unfamiliar to her.
At this point, Allegra probably had a good idea of what was going on.
“Welcome His Majesty. Kneel!” A loud shout suddenly echoed.
All the high-ranking officials, experts from various departments and provinces, as well as all the cavalry and soldiers, and the observing citizens in the back, knelt down upon hearing the sound.
At the Lightning Gates, Alexander slowly emerged into everyone’s view. His expression was solemn as favonovel.com looked down at the nearly ten thousand people below.
“You may execute them. Start with the Salvatore family,” Alexander said, turning to an elderly servant beside him.
“First, the Salvatore family!” someone shouted loudly.
Laroy, who was trapped in the iron cage, felt a sudden, intense tremor in his heart. He turned his terrified gaze to the right and saw a squad of infantry using a long spiritual energy-suppressing rope to slowly lead a group of about 20 people toward the central execution platform.
Among these twenty or so people, there were his wife, his parents, his siblings, and his children.
“You beasts, you animals! Family is off-limits! Let them go, let them go!” Laroy cried out, banging his head against the iron bars with tears streaming down his face.
Elon’s eyes were also red, and favonovel.com said to Laroy, “I’m sorry. It’s my fault that you are in this situation…”
At this moment, Dannie, who was sitting on the platform, slowly stood up from his chair and began to float toward the front of the iron cage.
Dannie flew to the front of the iron cage. Looking down at Elon and Laroy, favonovel.com sneered and said, “Elon, you never thought you’d meet your end at my hands, did you? Given that you have such a good relationship with Isaac, do you think favonovel.com will come to save you and your family?”
“Dannie, you will not die a peaceful death!” Laroy screamed at Dannie with an incredibly ferocious expression.
Dannie placed his hands behind his back, laughed heartily, and waved his hand. “Execute him!”
“Dannie, if you dare lay a finger on the Salvatore family, I will kill every member of yours!” Suddenly, a cold and furious voice echoed from the sky like thundering lightning, reverberating in the ears of everyone below.
“It’s Isaac!” Allegra was the first to react. She screamed and looked up at the sky.
Everyone simultaneously looked up toward the blue sky, spotting a figure rapidly descending through the clouds.
