She stood in the Expansion Hall of Advanced Base 131 with a very distressed expression on her face.

Next to her was Daphne, equally furious.

The second-class players Sterl had previously recruited were forced to stand at a distance from the two women, also looking angry.

But they could only hold it in.

The Expansion Hall was now packed with players from at least four or five different bases.

The tall chandelier on the domed ceiling cast a glow on the faces of countless people below. Anyone with a bit of knowledge would recognize that these were all notable figures, at least second-class and above!

They were the backbone of Earth\'s human race!

At this moment, a high chair and desk had been elevated in the center of the hall, forming a giant tribunal.

On the tribunal, the chief judge slowly stepped forward.

Seeing this person, Teresa and Daphne\'s faces filled with terror—it was the head of their "Ironheart" family.

A figure who had been at the third class for a long time but was already capable of breaking through to the legendary level—Astrid.

She was an old lady dressed in old-fashioned attire, wearing a gray nylon coat and a long hat.

She was the strongest member of the "Ironheart" family and the symbol of the clan!

Teresa and Daphne knew that this matriarch possessed a fully maxed-out gold-quality skill! She seemed to be collecting other gold skills to prepare for an even stronger legendary promotion.

Many second-class, third-class players among Earth\'s humans speculated that having more gold-quality skills was better for advancing to the legendary level, based on this lady\'s actions.

Beside this lady, several jurors appeared with the glow of teleportation, each one holding an extraordinary position among Earth\'s humans.

The head of the "Dragonblood" family, Alcander. The head of the "Divine Might" family, Nelson. The head of the "World Anchor" family, Lexi. And numerous presidents of major guilds.

This was the luxurious lineup assembled from nearly ten advanced bases!

There was only one reason for this gathering.

As the guards shouted, "The trial begins!"

Beams of light instantly formed shackles that bound Teresa, Daphne, and the players under Sterl\'s command, rendering them unable to use any skills or even move. They could only stand there in a humiliating half-kneel.

At this moment, Astrid wore a look of pity.

"Teresa, you still refuse to reveal how you obtained that batch of equipment and resources?"

"Furthermore, who did you conspire with to kill our clan elder? Do you know he was the commander of this base? If you confess, we can give you a painless death."

"You should be aware of the reputation of the family\'s Tribunal."

Clan Chief Astrid of the "Ironheart" family questioned angrily, as if Teresa had committed an unforgivable crime.

The other family heads and guild leaders nearby also gritted their teeth, seemingly sharing in the outrage.

"This is insane! Killing the base commander? What won\'t you dare do next?"

"She must be executed to serve as a warning to others."

"Astrid, you\'re too lenient. That\'s why this despicable wretch dared to kill a noble elder, to kill the commander of our Earth human base!"

Their righteous indignation was palpable, and they emanated the powerful aura of third-class players, pressing down on Teresa and Daphne.

"Speak! Who did you conspire with to murder the base commander?"

"How did you come by those mysterious skill books and equipment? Reveal the source immediately!"

The third-class powerhouses were relentless, their energy flaring. It was clear that if Teresa and Daphne\'s answers were unsatisfactory, they would be struck down without mercy.

Their eyes flashed with both anger and greed.

The anger stemmed from the belief that players cultivated by their families were nothing more than dogs who dared to bite the hand that fed them. This was a revolt that had to be crushed to set an example!

At this point, the interests of all the families were highly aligned because they needed to jointly maintain this brutal system. Anyone who dared to rise up had to die! And they had to die miserably!

At the same time, the large batch of second-class equipment Teresa had revealed was highly tempting to these families.

Earth\'s human race was, after all, poor!

Any family that acquired that batch of equipment could see a significant boost in strength.

But more importantly, these families had concluded after analysis that Teresa and Daphne didn\'t have the power to kill the base commander on their own.

Someone or some force must be backing them, providing significant resources to support them.

After killing the base commander, this person or force had gone into hiding, and Teresa and Daphne had done their best to cover it up.

The conclusion was simple.

This person or force wasn\'t strong enough to confront Earth\'s human clans head-on! Killing a third-class commander had already taken a great deal of effort, forcing them into hiding.

But the fact that this person or force could produce such a large amount of resources while being relatively weak indicated they had a very rich resource channel, capable of quickly acquiring second-class equipment.

This channel made the families\' eyes burn with desire!

Thus, this public trial was convened! The families wanted the surrounding base players to witness the unveiling of this resource channel, ensuring fair access for all.

Though a single family\'s power was strong, they still needed to interact with other Earth human players. If they were caught using underhanded tactics to monopolize the channel, their reputation would suffer greatly!

Otherwise, Teresa and Daphne would have long been captured and interrogated by individual families.

Faced with the terrifying aura of third-class players, Teresa and Daphne nearly buckled to their knees.

Daphne was utterly bewildered. Her loyalty to "David" wasn\'t that high, but she knew that whether she spoke or not, she was doomed. She could only grit her teeth, close her eyes, and brace for the worst.

Play Dead!

Teresa breathed a slight sigh of relief. If Daphne showed even a hint of revealing their master\'s information, even if it was false, Teresa would have no choice but to kill her!

Sterl had given Teresa a lot of equipment. While Sterl hadn\'t closely examined many of the attributes, Teresa had collected some with special functions. Even in her restrained state, she could still kill a similarly restrained and defenseless Daphne.

This was Teresa\'s ultimate loyalty as a "faithful dog"!

At this moment, facing the intense questioning from numerous third-class family members, Teresa remained calm. "I don\'t know how the base commander died."

"I\'ve said many times that the resources were a reward from completing a hidden mission."

The second-class players who had become Sterl\'s subordinates under a contract looked bitter. "We did participate in the hidden mission with Miss Teresa, and the reason she has so much equipment is because we handed over part of our rewards for her to distribute."

Their statements were full of holes. Why would they listen to Teresa? Why would they give her the equipment? Didn\'t this just prove that there was indeed a mysterious entity behind Teresa controlling them?

At this point, the family heads and guild leaders didn\'t even need to speak again. The players below were already in an uproar.

They could easily spot the inconsistencies in Sterl\'s subordinates\' words, and their minds filled in the gaps…

It was true!

Teresa and Daphne, these two popular beauties in nearby advanced bases, really had betrayed them!

The players\' expressions changed!

The Earth human race had always emphasized education from the moment players were first born, ensuring that everyone lived in a fervor to sacrifice everything for their race.

While most players, as they grew stronger, were unwilling to give their lives for the so-called race, they at least still loved their community!

Only someone like Sterl, who had inherent memories, could be immune to such brainwashing.

At this moment, the players looked at Teresa and the others with intense hatred. "So you really did kill the base commander!"

"Are you insane? If the base loses its commander and gets destroyed, you will be the criminals!"

"Do you know how many ordinary people live in the base?"

"Kill them! Kill them all!"

The players shouted fervently, filled with rage!

Many even pulled out potions and items from their inventories and threw them forward! Fortunately, the Expansion Hall had protective measures against attacks, with AI automatically shielding against toxic and explosive substances.

Nevertheless, with the dark green toxic smoke and bursts of firelight, Teresa, Daphne, and Sterl\'s subordinates looked increasingly pale and desperate.

Seeing everyone\'s extreme anger, the third-class players above them shouted, "Teresa, Daphne, confess the truth!!"

This command was imbued with skill effects, carrying a soul-stirring power.

Anyone with a weak mind would likely fall into a daze and spill everything when interrogated this way.

However, Teresa covered Daphne\'s mouth with one hand and shouted loudly, "I told you, I don\'t know anything!"
