These are the nine Great Elders of the Watchers, each possessing Legendary Level Combat Power.

At the same time.

An ancient throne swiftly flew out from the great hall, with a figure still seated upon it.

In an instant! All nine elders of the Watchers knelt on one knee, then issued a deafening shout, exclaiming.

"Welcome, Leader of the Human Clan!!!"

The sky-piercing shout instantly spread throughout the entire Main City, and millions of civilians trapped in the city heard this voice.

Confusion appeared in the eyes of these civilians.

Because ever since two days ago, a mysterious force appeared and sealed off Sel Main City completely.

All life within the city was trapped inside, and even messages could not be transmitted out.

At the same time, they sensed terrifying waves in the Royal Palace, as though some powerful individuals were battling.

However, the battle did not last long, and the waves quickly subsided.

Although everyone knew that some kind of upheaval might have occurred in the Royal Palace, no one dared to go probe.

Until today, there was finally some different commotion in the Royal Palace.

At the same time.

On that ancient throne, the Watcher Leader said indifferently, "Begin."

"Yes!"

One of the Watcher Elders made a Magic Wand appear in his hand out of thin air, waving it in a certain special rhythm.

A mighty wave of Magic Power was commandeered by him.

Meanwhile, a projection emerged above the Main City, visible to the millions of civilians below.

The projection displayed a scene of the central square in the Royal Palace.

But presently it was still somewhat blurry, so the specific figures couldn’t be clearly seen.

All couldn’t help but look up.

"What’s this, why are there so many people in the sky?" A gray-haired old woman questioned in confusion.

"Mrs. Beina, it’s a projection, allowing us to see things happening elsewhere."

"I see, Mr. Karen, you’re so knowledgeable, worthy of being the most learned in our neighborhood," the old woman praised.

"Everyone, look quickly, the projection is becoming clearer."

Hearing this, everyone raised their heads, eyes fixed tightly on the projection in the sky.

And when the civilians saw those once lofty nobles and commanding officers in power,

now prostrate on the ground like stray dogs, their eyes first bewildered.

Then, as if remembering something, their faces turned white in an instant!

Additionally, they noticed in the crowd, a figure clad in royal robes with an imposing aura.

And when they saw this figure too was kneeling on the ground,

many displayed expressions of fear and dread!

A naive child’s voice chimed, "Father, I recognize that person, he’s His Majesty the King!"

"John, hush!"

A plainly dressed middle-aged man hurriedly covered his mouth.

"What happened? Why would His Majesty the King... would..."

An old man shouted in panic, "Stop looking! Everyone, close your eyes!"

For a moment, the civilians hastily bowed their heads, as if just witnessing this scene would bring them disaster.

"I saw nothing, I saw nothing..."

The fear of nobles seemed ingrained in these civilians’ bones.

At this moment, the figure seated on the throne slowly stood up, and then said, "Human compatriots, I am the Leader of the Watcher, you may call me the Guardian, the Guardian of the entire Human Clan."

"As you have seen, we have taken control of all the nobles in the Royal Palace."

"In the past, these parasitic, atrocious beings have continuously persecuted and oppressed our people, yet never faced the punishment they deserved."

"Today, we will pass Judgement on these filthy creatures!"

In the city, millions of civilians bore expressions of bewilderment.

Judgement on the nobles? Even on the Royal Family?

Could they have heard wrong?

Until now, they had never witnessed a Royal Family being judged, even if they committed heinous crimes and caused great upheaval, it was always quickly subdued by the city’s generals leading soldiers, and punishment was never meted out.

Thus, they already knew in their hearts that the Kingdom’s laws did not apply to these people,

after all, no matter the scale of the crimes committed by the Royals, they were only the King’s family matters, with no one daring to punish them.

And now, this individual was audaciously announcing to the entire city a Judgement upon them, really astonishing.

At the same time, the Watcher Elder with the Magic Wand floated into mid-air.

In his left hand materialized a hefty book out of nowhere.

He opened to the first page of the book and began to proclaim, "The first one to be judged today is the Earl of Viren Kingdom—Chris Ashton."

"Crime one: During the war with Ice Crystal Kingdom, to claim the enemy kill reward from King of Velen, forcibly abducted 148 villages from the Redwood Plain, totaling 130,000 villagers, and had them all buried secretly, bearing a heavy debt of blood!"

"Crime two: Chris embezzled over a hundred billion Crowns in secret, with these Crowns entirely sourced from bribes he accepted."

"Crime three: Chris privately raised over a thousand slaves, most being young girls aged 5-9, kept for his lascivious pleasures, and the daily disappearance of many children in the city was all linked to him."

"Crime four..."

The proclamation continued for almost ten minutes.

As each crime was exposed, even those prostrate nobles and the King couldn’t help but raise their heads, looking at the figure in the crowd.

It seemed they hadn’t expected the Earl to commit such morally heinous acts in private.

Indirectly or directly, the civilians who perished at his hands exceeded four hundred thousand, with many young children brutally murdered!
