619 Judgment (Part 2) (3)
Lunarstar’s expression was calm as he looked around. “Everyone, it was my fault for not supervising my brother, Lunardo, but I believe everyone can see how arrogant Wu Ming is. He ignores the law and the dignity of an emperor of an advanced civilization. He’s still the same in court with all the threats… If he isn’t punished severely, how can I protect the dignity of an advanced civilization’s royal family and the three Paramounts?”
“I’m already very puzzled why the Cosmic Human Alliance’s Supreme Court would be holding a hearing over a trivial matter like killing a sinful vermin. If the punishment meted out is too heavy, I’ll only doubt the fairness of the Cosmic Human Alliance.” Xu Jingming gazed at the presiding judge and shouted, “I want to know if the Cosmic Human Alliance is an alliance of humans or an alliance of the three royal families!”
“If the judgment is unfair, I can only report it to the three Paramounts and get them to eliminate the cancer in the Cosmic Human Alliance,” Xu Jingming said as he stood there.
“Don’t worry. The Cosmic Human Alliance has always been an alliance of the entire human race. Our fairness is also supervised by the virtual world,” the presiding judge said. “There’s no need to doubt this.”
Lunarstar gritted his teeth in anger when he saw this.
!!
How can Xu Jingming be so arrogant? All the factions are here in the Supreme Court, yet he shows no fear? Lunarstar still had to pay attention to his status, but Xu Jingming was extremely frank.
“Do both parties have anything else to say?” the presiding judge asked. Of the two people below, one was the emperor of an advanced civilization, and the other was the most dazzling powerhouse on the evolutionary path. He was rather polite.
“No.” Xu Jingming shook his head.
“Everyone knows what he did,” Lunarstar said. “I believe the judges will come to a fair decision.”
“Alright, the two of you can return to your seats.” The presiding judge nodded. “Now, we shall have the 300 judges discuss.”
The 300 judges began to give their verdicts on the projection in front of them.
The Supreme Court wasn’t something that could be decided by one person. 300 outstanding figures selected from different factions and industries would serve as judges. According to the decision by the 300 of them, the virtual world would synthesize the final outcome.
Seconds and minutes passed.
Xu Jingming sat in his seat, and Lunarstar sat in the distance and waited silently.
“From the joint opinion of 300 judges, Wu Ming is found to have overstepped his authority in his law enforcement. The consequences are serious, with his intimidation of the Primestar civilization’s emperor, Lunarstar, taken into account. In view of Wu Ming’s contributions to the human race and his high-dimensional corruption, Wu Ming will have 50 million credits deducted,” the presiding judge announced. “Moreover, I’ll also read out the Primordial Research Institute’s verdict. Wu Ming will have one million credits deducted as punishment.”
“Based on the judgments of the Cosmic Human Alliance’s Supreme Court and the Primordial Research Institute, the comprehensive penalty shall be eight million credits! This will be the final judgment!” the presiding judge announced.
Lunarstar’s expression turned nasty when he heard that.
Xu Jingming nodded slightly and thought to himself, The upper echelons of the Cosmic Human Alliance are quite smart. They aren’t completely in bed with the three royal families. If they want to make a fuss because of single vermin, it means that the brass needs some cleaning up.
The trial ended, and the participants began to leave.
“Only eight million credits? He has more than two billion credits! What’s that to him?”
“This is a slap in the face for the three royal families.”
Many royal representatives discussed angrily, but it was useless no matter how angry they were. The upper echelons of the Cosmic Human Alliance had long made a decision.
“After all, three Paramounts descended for him at the same time. Deputy Dean Redmond is most likely also at the Paramount realm. He also favors Wu Ming.”
“Wu Ming is extremely talented. Even though he’s corrupted, it’s still very easy for him to become a cosmic legend.”
“A cosmic legend with third-realm high-dimensional powers will be the strongest cosmic legend.” There’s no need to provoke him.
In the spectator stands, a few truly influential figures got up and left. They had already decided on the outcome before the court hearing began.
It was impossible for the Cosmic Human Alliance to offend Xu Jingming for a useless Lunardo.
