, Zhu Jue's palace is now like a temporary court.
The person guarding the door is Zhu Jue's trusted divine soldier ant, and the one standing beside him is also the divine soldier ant, as is the one guarding the "suspect". The entire palace is tightly guarded by the guard divine soldier ant.
In addition to Zhu Jue and dozens of divine ant warriors, there are also several commanders of the Divine Envoy King's legions in the palace, lying low on the ground, inexplicably surprised by today's treatment.
Zhu Jue was sitting on a simple stone bench, holding his head with his two anthropomorphic forelimbs, thinking about something.
Just now, he had received recognition from the big-headed male ants who were being held below for stealing crow nectar. These squad leader-level commanders said that before departure, they instructed the logistics troops to assist in delivering drinks mixed with crow honey to the battlefield for consumption.
What shocked Zhu Jue was that these commanders did not care about this, saying that many generals drank crow honey and it was not a big deal.
You must know that in the Ant Alliance, Zhu Jue treats crow honey as a controlled substance. The production of crow honey is strictly managed by specialized troops. All crow honey is required to be sold only to external parties and not circulated domestically. This ban is reasonable. It should be very strict.
Unexpectedly, without Zhu Jue noticing, this addictive substance had quietly become popular among the aristocracy of the Ant Alliance. This was directly admitted by the male ants who were interrogated, and they did not think there was anything wrong with violating the prohibition of the Divine Messenger King. It was just to satisfy their appetites.
At this time, the summoned "Gun II" came in a hurry. Zhu Jue hooked his tentacles, motioning for him to come forward, and then got close to the tentacles to intersect.
The message Zhu Jue sent to "Gun II" was meaningless at first. The other party was very confused. It took a long time to receive a message with content, which roughly meant "Can I trust you?"
————
Today, except for the Divine Envoy King's Legion, other troops continued to go out for training as planned, and the auxiliary soldiers were looking for food as usual, and there seemed to be no difference.
However, the area around Zhu Jue's palace was extremely crowded and busy. Several nearby nest rooms were requisitioned. Some big-headed ant commanders were summoned here one after another, divided into several groups, separated from their own troops, and placed in the nest rooms. They were monitored by the magic soldier ants respectively.
At the same time, other groups of magic soldier ants aggressively broke into the commanders' rooms and logistics warehouses, opened all the clay pots containing drinks, and supervised and inspected each other carefully. Some big-headed male ants that had not yet been summoned angrily scolded the magic soldier ants for committing the following crimes, but after the magic soldier ants showed Zhu Jue's order, the male ant commanders could only obey.
As time passed, although they didn't know what happened, the generals at all levels of the God Envoy King's Army had noticed the same thing. Some impatient male ants started to make a fuss. They couldn't stand the God Soldier Ant class. At this time, they were After being imprisoned for a long time, how could there be no resentment, and they rushed to Zhu Jue's palace, wanting to ask for an explanation.
Seeing that the passage outside the palace was getting more and more noisy, Zhu Jue got in at this moment. The powerful aura immediately made the male ants who were noisy just now quickly stop making unfriendly friction sounds and smells.
Later, the magic soldier ants beside Zhu Jue got into the group of male ant generals, used their tentacles to identify the identity of each male ant, and took some of the generals away. With Zhu Jue here, although the other male ants were confused, they did not dare to make any mistakes.
Soon, 39 big-headed male ant commanders were brought to Zhu Jue's palace to wait. Together with the 13 who were already here before, a total of 52 suspects suspected of violating the crow honey ban were brought there. There was actually a regiment commander among them. !
Zhu Jue immediately marked out an open space outside the nest, which was guarded by magic soldier ants, prohibiting ants from other races from approaching.
With hundreds of male Big-headed Ant commanders watching, Zhu Jue and the suspect stood on higher ground. Zhu Jue first announced the ban on crow honey again in the form of an information package.
Some of the male ant commanders below who had not known about it and had been puzzled for a long time, now knew why such a big battle started today, and they started talking to each other one after another. Most of them still didn't care about this ban. The reason why they did not violate it was The ban is simply due to good obedience.
Immediately afterwards, Zhu Jue announced the punishment results for 52 commanders who had violated the ban, which shocked the onlookers even more: Zhu Jue actually announced that these generals would be punished by being whipped, and then all of them would be retained. Any further violations may even lead to death!
The punishment of whipping is more symbolic than physical pain to the carapace ants. Most ants don't quite understand the meaning of punishment for committing crimes, but the death penalty is still very deterrent, and it also seems that this sentence is very serious!
All the male ants felt that the punishment was too severe and even a little inexplicable. These commanders did not violate the ban, but they also felt that drinking a little crow honey was not a serious matter. Isn't this a delicious specialty of the Ant Alliance? You can sell it to foreigners to drink, why can’t you give it to your own ants? ?
"Get Out" is the oldest person and is not an ant who has violated the ban. He felt that it was necessary to stand up and say something, so he crawled to Zhu Jue from the audience and persuaded him. It was just a small matter and there was no need to mobilize so much. .
Zhu Jue's tentacles of anger immediately stood up. His high political sensitivity made Zhu Jue know that this matter could not be solved. He was already angry. At this time, "Get Out" came again. Zhu Jue directly took advantage of the topic and announced To punish "Get out of here", the punishment does not include whipping, but it is still a punishment for the crime!
"Gun II", who was second only to Zhu Jue in seniority, was also punished. Only then did the male ants who were watching realize that the God Envoy King was really angry. The majesty that the God Envoy King had accumulated for a long time was finally exposed, making these commanders panic. He lowered his body and tentacles, not daring to object any longer.
The punished commanders also confessed their crimes one after another, and the divine soldier ants held braids made of plant fibers in their jaws and whipped them on their backs for execution. After the execution, the guilty ants were marked with bright red mineral pigment on their foreheads for identification.
After the execution, Zhu Jue, in the name of the "King of Gods", declared that crow honey was "a tempting thing that God hates" and confiscated all the honeydew drinks collected.
A storm caused by crow honey seemed to dissipate quickly, but Zhu Jue himself knew that the matter was far from over.
According to the male ant who committed the crime, in the Ant Alliance, crow honey has long become a common luxury drink in the male ant circle. Even the institutions that produce and store crow honey have been infiltrated, and crow honey that should be exported has been continuously diverted. The honey is secretly transported to various parts of the country, and a fandu group has taken shape!
