When an Alien is Bound to a World Saving SystemCh36.2 - Machine rebellion (8.2)

After everyone rested for a bit, the public trial assembly of the valley base was going to be held in the afternoon. At this moment, everyone withdrew their smiles of excitement and joy brought about by the delicious food during lunch; their expressions all became heavy. After all, because of the revolt of their own people within the valley, it almost brought about the destruction of the entire base today!

It was different from the collective voting in the morning. This time, there were not only the representatives present for this public trial. Apart from the essential guards, the valley’s several thousand residents were all gathered together in the hall. Alexander and his dozen of subordinates were tied up with their hands behind their backs and brought up onto the high platform boulder. Amidst the anger of the crowd, the female leader Claire first read out the charges against the former guard team captain, Alexander: iNBWGq

“The former captain of the guard team, Alexander. In order to seize control of the valley base, he prompted a dozen of his subordinates to falsify information that the death squad team members were drawing the armed helicopters to the valley base! And while he instigated the guard team to seize power, more than 300 injured men of the death squad were shut outside the cave. This caused them to be discovered by the daily patrolling reconnaissance drones, which almost caused the location of our valley base to exposed!

If not for the efforts of Mister Huo and Mister Yi of the Salvation Alliance, as well as the smart cabbages, those two drones would have already used their machine guns to annihilate all 300 people who were blocked outside. Furthermore, they would have called for a large number of reinforcements to come within a short time and completely wipe out the 4000 or so people living in this valley base!

For Alexander’s numerous crimes, he will be sentenced to death according to the rules of the valley base! The brothers and sisters who have no objection to this sentence, please raise your right hand!”

The survivors who were extremely angry with Alexander’s conduct, especially the members of the anti-machine resistance team as well as their families immediately raised their hands. The majority of the labourers who had lingering fears of losing their base also raised their hands one after another in agreement. ZhG1B3

Seeing that most of the people were raising their hands, the guards who previously regarded Alexander as their leader and were always dissatisfied with the Claire siblings knew that the situation was over. Afraid that they would be regarded as the remaining members planning a revolt, they also went with the tide and raised their hands. In the end, only a few guards were still persevering, and the number of people who agreed to the verdict had already reached more than 80%.

“I declare that by the verdict of the valley base’s public trial, Alexander shall be sentenced to death!”

Then, the remaining dozen people were also taken out one by one. According to the regulations of the valley base, they would be banished forever!

“Now, the criminal Alexander shall be executed!” Mister Claire heavily stated.

“Stop! You bunch of slaughterers!”

Everyone’s eyes instantly focused on a woman with blonde hair carrying a small baby and holding a three or four year old girl with her other hand. She tearfully continued to lament: foGcP2

“How much effort has my husband Alexander made in order to guard the valley base?! We migrated all the way here from the lake side. At that time, it was my husband Alexander who chose this mountain range to be our current home. Later, in order to resist being detected and slaughtered by the machines, he also personally set up the guard team! Protecting us for almost 20 years! For the past 20 years, our enemy has always been the machines, but today, are you going to turn your guns and take away my husband’s life?!”

The blonde woman wept tearfully. Her two children also started to wail as they called out to their dad!

Many of the survivors couldn’t bear to see this parting scene. The soldier standing behind Alexander also hesitated and lowered his gun, clearly not wanting to bear the responsibility of being the first to shoot their own kind. Alexander was originally looking lifeless as he knelt on top of the boulder, but at this moment, there was suddenly a trace of vitality. He quickly put on a mournful expression and shouted to everyone with a trembling voice:

“Today, I was just overly worried about the safety of the valley base! I really didn’t know that the reconnaissance drones didn’t follow the heroic death squad members here. For this, I made a big mistake! But for the sake of my many years of dedication to the valley base, I beg everyone to give me a chance! Wu wu wu! aykVHS

Jace, Tom, Lilith! Have you guys forgotten that I once saved your lives?! Are you going to stand there and watch me die today because of a mistake I made this one time, where not even a single person was injured?”

Tears flowed down Alexander’s dirty cheek, making him look rather pitiful.

When Mister Claire saw that this married pair of dramatists were about to regain control of the situation again, and that the soldier was still reluctant to shoot, he had no choice but to take out his own hand gun and quickly walk behind Alexander.

Seeing this, the sharp-eyed Mrs Alexander hurriedly cried out: aTWHMs

“Claire, as our leader, are you so impatient to kill your comrade?! As the first person to rebel against the machine, are you now going to make the first shot against humanity?!

Now, there’s only a millionth of the humans remaining on our D planet compared to before the apocalypse. Every single person is the hope of humanity’s survival! Alexander’s mistakes have never caused the loss of a single person’s life, but as the leader, you’re now going to do such as thing as killing humans?”

At this moment, everyone also started to discuss among each other. They all hated Alexander for what he did, but they were unwilling to say that they wanted to see another human die. Everyone hesitated; no one was willing to personally fire a shot.

Hence, the execution that should have gone smoothly came to a stalemate. Seeing this opportunity, Alexander wanted to say a few more words to stir up people’s hearts and fight for a better sentence for himself. It would be best if he could atone for his crimes with his good deeds! Alexander’s mind spun rapidly, organising his words…… pCqiA9

At the same time, Huo Li’s voice sounded in the black-haired youth’s mind: “Xiao Yi, if we still don’t do anything, Alexander will use the point that the Claire siblings are like the machines in slaughtering humanity to instigate everyone’s emotions. We now need to establish humanity’s absolute trust in the mechanical soldiers that I control, so that we can carry out the next task in saving this world. Should I control Alexander to shut him up?”

The black-haired youth concisely replied with his consciousness:

“No need.”

He then jumped up onto the platform. C8vubf

“Has this Alexander been sentenced to death by the laws of the valley base?”

The black-haired youth asked with a clear voice and looked towards the Claire siblings who were trying to control the situation. The siblings didn’t understand what he meant by this, but they still nodded. After receiving their acknowledgement, the black-haired youth then turned to look at the crowd below. The survivors also replied in confusion:

“Yes, Mister Yi.”

“Right ah?” nWbotz

“It’s the death penalty.”

After obtaining affirmative answers, the black-haired youth nodded with satisfaction. He took out a hand gun from his waist and aimed it at Alexander who was still thinking of how to instigate the crowd. Then, he directly pulled the trigger at Alexander’s head!

Bang! After the gun shot, Alexander fell down onto the stone platform and slightly twitched. The bright red blood mixed with brain matter splattered onto the uneven stone surface and slowly spread……

The scene suddenly fell silent. Everyone was shocked! kg8pFV

However, the black-haired youth’s expression didn’t change, as though he had just shot a simple target. Putting his gun back to his waist, he then said to everyone:

“Alright, now the execution has been completed. Due to time constraints, let’s start discussing more important matters!”
