Chapter 458 (2/2)
The God of Fear clearly showed panic.
“Next, I plan to build some haunted houses, make some horror movies and some VR horror games. All in all, in fact, fear is also a good selling point. If people can experience fear more in safe conditions, it will be good to improve their courage. It is also a pleasure in life.”
“Bastard!” the God of Fear screamed angrily as if he wanted to rush out of the prisoner’s box to fight desperately with Sui Xiong. However, when he exerted his power, the chains of Divine Power on his body shone at the same time, and he was firmly locked and suppressed in his seat.
“I plan to spend some time reshaping the image of fear in people’s minds and shifting it from radical evil to neutrality towards evil. This is not an easy task, and I don’t know how much time and effort it will take,” Sui Xiong said, smiling. “However, in order to make you, the head villain of the Pantheon temple, completely finished, it is all worthwhile. So, die in peace. The old age when the priesthood of Fear represented darkness and cruelness will disappear into the long river of history and become a topic for future scholars.”
“I don’t accept it!” the God of Fear shouted. “Conspiracy! It’s all conspiracies!”
“I have done all these things clearly, so why are they conspiracies?” Sui Xiong asked, smiling. “Either the public hearing or the horror-themed entertainment in the mortal world, which one do I do secretly? Which thing is unclear?”
“That law!” the God of Fear shouted. “The law is what you make secretly!”
Sui Xiong laughed happily. With a white light flashing in his hand, another book appeared in his hand. The words on the cover showed that it was The Code of the Republic of Northwest.
“Today I will make you know clearly why you will die!” He turned the pages and pointed to the first article on one page. He said, “Look, what is this?”
The relevant words suddenly magnified, turning into words that anyone could see clearly. They then floated in the air.
The Republic of Northwest is a country ruled by laws. All creatures in the Republic of Northwest are equal before laws.
“In fact, I plan to use this law to deal with you from the beginning,” Sui Xiong said leisurely. “But my new friend said that it was not good to punish other gods with our own law. Therefore, he proposed to visit the Master of Order. The Master of Order represents the order of the world, so it killed two birds with one stone to ask him to sign the Code of Gods. It not only provided us with a sufficient legal basis to punish you, but also supplemented the most important part that the world’s legal system lacked. Although it was not pleasant enough, I still accepted his advice for the long-term planning of the world.”
After the explanation, Sui Xiong looked at the God of Fear mockingly. Sui Xiong said, “Okay, now you choose on your own. The Code of Gods or the Code of the Republic of Northwest? You can choose whichever you want. It’s fair enough, isn’t it?”
“Damn Code of the Republic of Northwest! I am not in the territory of your Republic of Northwest!” the God of Fear roared.
“Not in the territory of the Republic of Northwest?” Sui Xiong said, smiling. His hand waved, and the surrounding light and shadow flowed. The audience including the gods found that the surrounding scenery suddenly changed, and they were already in the Ashes Woods. From the treetops not far away, they could clearly see the huge observation deck of the Void Mask Land.
“What do you say now?”
“Despicable!” the God of Fear cursed angrily. “Despicable and shameless!”
Sui Xiong took out a cigarette from nowhere and lit it up. He took a deep breath and spat out a huge smoke circle, and the smoke circle drifted away slowly in the air.
“Ironic. I follow the rules to do everything, and you say that I am despicable?” Sui Xiong said. He laughed loudly while shaking his head. Then he said, “For you, such a villain, as long as you can’t make profits, then everything is a despicable act. However, everything will be over.” The cigarette that was created by Divine Power disappeared, and the surroundings of the public hearing were again covered by the blue sky. No one could see the outside scene. “It is time to pronounce the sentence now.”
The God of Shadow and Assassination seemed to have no sense of presence, and she closed her eyes all the time. Now she shouted, “Wait a moment!”
Sui Xiong was stunned. He said, turning to look at her, “You have been in contact with your avatar in the mortal world, right? It seems that you have found a special lawyer there.”
The God of Shadow and Assassination didn’t answer him. She said in a hurry, “All legal provisions should have a retrospective period, so the Code of Gods has no exception!”
Sui Xiong said, shaking his head, “The retrospective period of human beings exists because of their limited life. Gods have an infinite lifespan, so the retrospective period is unlimited.
“Don’t use mortal laws to rule gods. Gods and mortals are different.”
