Wizard From Afar

The light from the brazier left an erratic shadow on the wall of the cell, which looked gloomy and hideous.

Behind the iron fence that leaked into the light, there was a silhouette of an elf warrior.

His head is drooping on his chest, his legs are curled up on the ground, his arms are nailed to the wall—iron nails go through his wrists, iron balls hang around his neck, shackles lock his feet, and iron chains are entangled. Full body.

Scalds, burns, cuts, heavy blows, corrosion... all;

None of the nails survived, and the hair was forcibly pulled out;

To the feet, from the inside to the outside... It can be said that this wizard warrior has "experienced" all known physical and spiritual punishments in the world; not to mention that he is still alive now, even if he has only one breath left, he is considered a "Holy Cross". The miracle that descends".

The squinting black hair wizard held on to the fence and silently looked at the silhouette in the cell.

Seeing people across the cell is a very "wonderful" feeling...especially for people who have experienced this kind of pain.

Like looking in a mirror, you will subconsciously bring yourself into the other person’s situation.

"My lord Duke." Fiend, who was in charge of the interrogation, walked forward and offered both hands of the parchment scroll on the table: "This is Dalton · Kander Master. The interview records of the last three days, please have a look. ."

Loren raised his eyebrows and took it happily. The densely packed, neat handwriting greeted his eyes.

Under the seat of Xiong Yingwang of the Kingdom of Azores, Rod Yell, the chief lieutenant of the Royal Court among the "Four Courts";

Saber Xinyue, the tenth I ancestral long sword; the warrior way "Blood For Blood", the damage received will be twice repaid to the enemy who was touched by the blade for the first time;

The Imperial Court warrior, except for the chief and second In addition, there are 28 warriors, called adjutants; 16 wizards, called assistants; specializing in security and assassination, infiltration, investigation and counter-reconnaissance, responsible for all intelligence work in the Xiong Yingwang palace;

The so-called "four courts", from high to low, are "supervisor, imperial, guard, and guard", collectively referred to as "four courts"; each of the four courts has its own functions, and the number of people has nothing common with each other, status There is a difference between relatives and sparseness.

If compared according to the official functions of the empire, it is almost the difference between "professional soldiers, assassins, generals, and Knights."

The political system of the Azores kingdom is similar to that of the empire. The large and small lords under Xiong Yingwang share the kingdom’s desire for power and wealth; the only difference is that Xiong Yingwang has greater power than the emperor. The lord has the authority to abolish and change.

The military organization model of the Kingdom of Azores...

The taxation and fiscal system of the Kingdom of Azores...

The culture of the Kingdom of Azores and Tradition...

The diet and customs of the Azores Kingdom...

The Azores Kingdom...

Look at the parchment scroll with a line The content of the black hair wizard sighed and couldn't help rolling the eyes.

Isn’t this all asked? What can I do? !

Think of Dalton Kander’s sentence when he entered the door, "Although all the information has been dug up, you can continue to try it." Loren couldn’t help but sigh. Charlotte also terrifying a bit.

One against two, without opening the valve, and without knowing the enemy's means and abilities, one is captured one alive and the other is disabled. What else does the mentor want?

In other words, who is the protagonist of this book-the little priest, the tutor, or the emperor?

Well, it's not me anyway.

"Let’s all go out, here is me and him." Put down the note in your hand and looked at the prisoner’s black hair wizard sighed:

"Remember to close the door, No one is allowed to come in without my order."

"Master Dalton?" The interrogator Fiend looked astonished, but he explained as much as possible: "This guy has a very hard mouth, even if Master Dalton thinks. It’s not easy to pry open, so let us do it for you..."

"I said, go out."

I raised my hand and stopped Hunter Fiend who wanted to go on. Loren said solemnly, who didn't reply: "But for the next thing, I will be enough."

Looking at the traces on this wizard warrior, Loren understood what the other person meant.

Interrogation has always been a "dirty job", but also a technical job-not only to be cruel, but also to have a good sense of measure, so that the other party can feel the greatest degree of pain. It is possible to reduce the damage received and prevent the prisoner from fainting or violent death easily.

The most important thing is that you can't treat the other person as a "person", or even a "living creature" or even a "living" existence.

Because of these, people will have empathy and will subconsciously consider the other party-in the interrogation process, these emotions will all have to be completely stifled.

Even Dalton Kander is not confident enough to grasp the measure, and can only rely on the assistance of these "professionals" who are skilled in interrogation and punishment.

But what Loren needs most now is this kind of "means", so...

"Go out, remember to watch the door and don't let anyone in." Loren said softly.

Hunting Fiend stopped arguing, bowed respectfully, and then left the room with his two subordinates.

"Boom——!"

The harsh sound of the iron gate closing echoed in the prison.

The silhouette behind the iron fence shuddered, like a awakened sleeper, struggling to lift the head.

"The Duke... Your lord?"

He squinted slightly to avoid the glare of the fire, and looked at the black hair wizard's silhouette beyond the iron fence ignorantly.

"The Duke of Byrne...?"

"Loren Torino, the Duke of Byrne, the lord of the thirteen lords...whatever you call it, I am the one you are going to kill. "Loren replied softly, holding on to the iron fence, looking down at the elf warrior kneeling on the ground:

"As you can see, I'm still alive."

The elf warrior blinked hard. Blinking purple eyes, his expression is very dull.

"Your plan has failed. It has failed completely. Not only that, but the two'Master Zade' whom you have allegiance to... Well, or sister and brother Zade, they also revealed everything in the empire. The dark pile and intelligence network of the Azores." The black hair wizard continued:

"And you, Rod Yell, you became a victim of their escape, and you were abandoned here to become a prisoner. , To be trampled by others; hope is impossible without seeing hope, even going to hell has become an extravagant hope; then now, I want you to tell me about..."

"he he he hahahahahahaha ha... …!!!”

Before he finished speaking, Loren was interrupted by a burst of laughter.

"he he he …he he he hahahaha …hahaha …" The silhouette behind the cell smiled madly, and the trembling sound, along with the chains and shackles on his body, made the sound of "hua hua": "Hahahaha...haha...Loren, Loren·Torino! What do you want to know, what do you want to know, I will tell you all! hahaha...cough cough cough cough...!!!"

"I...I am This book! I am an open book! hahahahaha......"

The black hair wizard frowned slightly, his expression a little surprised.

Bang——!

The silhouette behind the iron fence suddenly leaned forward, pulling on the shackles and iron nails and chains, desperately opening his eyes and stretching his head towards Loren, with a crazy expression, and the twitching corners of his mouth seemed to be laughing, but also like Biting.

"Tell me! Tell me what you want to know!" The elf warrior seemed to be staring at Loren, but it seemed to be looking at something else: "Do you want to know the names of the Imperial Court warriors, do you want to I know the warrior skills of each of them, I will tell you! I will tell you all!"

"Well, I’m not interested? Ahhh...it’s okay, it’s okay, I know anything else, I know Others; whether Xiong Yingwang's housework is interested or not, I know it all! The royal court is Xiong Yingwang's confidant, and I know everything in the palace! I can tell you!"

The chattering wizard warrior fell into a certain sense of "self-talking".

"Oh, I said this, yes, yes... I said it, we don’t say this! Alas, let’s talk about the Azores army; I know everything, I know what I like and what I hate! Strengths and weaknesses, weaknesses and confidantes are all recorded!"

"Aiya Aiya! It's all my fault, I almost forgot, I almost forgot, What you actually want to know is the secret of the Azores Long Knife, right? Aiya...this is also top secret in the kingdom, even ordinary knives, the real Peak's famous knives are forged by royal craftsmen, and each one is registered in the register. That..."

Loren, who didn't say a word, slowly squatted down, concentrated attention completely, staring at the opponent's eyes firmly.

But the "madness" of the wizard warrior did not end.

The smile on his face remained the same, but his body trembled again, and his grinning mouth kept trembling.

"Um...we're almost done talking, it's time to hit me, right?" He stretched out his chapped tongue and tried to lick his swollen and cracked lips:

"This, How are you going to hit me this time? I just used a soldering iron in the morning. Isn’t it a soldering iron again?"

"Pick a whip, whip...hehehe, you have to dip in salt water and hang barbs on it. …Fishbone is the best, but iron nails are actually a bit short; hey, or just use iron rods, iron rods are the best, they can be used any way, and it’s more convenient than nail beds and hair-plucking clips. , Convenient..."

"There are also weightlessness, noose, ice chamber, furnace, poison... all kinds, all kinds, right? It doesn't matter, it doesn't matter...I can still Hold on for a long time, a long, long time..."

"Aiya! Yes, yes, yes...Don’t start, don’t start, otherwise we won’t be able to talk! I can’t see if I’m blind, and I’m deaf. I can’t hear if I break my ears, I can’t tell if I smash my mouth, I can’t even think about it if I slap my head...If you want to ask me questions, it’s troublesome!"

He's still chattering, constantly Talking to himself-even if Loren didn't ask him any questions, he still kept answering, repeating those answers.

Those answers already written on the parchment scroll.

One word, one character, one punctuation...there is no change.

Completely, exactly the same.

Like a repeater, it mechanically repeats what has been said countless times.

Loren squinted his eyes and stared at the elf warrior that was still repeating.

This elf...or this book, has indeed been dug up by Dalton instructor and completely destroyed. There is no more information that can be obtained from him.

Is this really the case?

If so, then why should the instructor tell yourself "you can try it"-simply tell yourself that he is crazy, isn't it more useful?

Or if there is any information that you don’t know, just tell yourself and let yourself find a way to get things out of his mouth, isn’t it all right?

The information that can be mined is almost the same, but you might as well give it a try...

What is the instructor implying?

The black hair wizard with flickering eyes constantly calculates the clues and resources in his hands;

Rod Yell, he is the deputy of the chief warrior of the "Regalia", and "The Royal Court" is in Xiong Yingwang, just as the night watchman is in the Supreme Emperor of the Empire; in charge of intelligence and assassination work, it should also master the basic functions of reconnaissance and counter reconnaissance.

In other words, this wizard warrior should have been familiar with such things as torture to extract a confession, and he may even have received special training in this area to avoid divulging it.

After all, the "Regalia" was originally the Intelligence Section. It would be impossible to be forced to confess alive; information leakage is something they should try to avoid.

But he still said... and it was like pour beans from a bamboo tube, all the tricks were done, there was nothing left, far exceeding the expectations of Dalton's instructor.

How is it possible?

From being caught to going crazy, there were only three days in between. He leaked almost all the information about the Kingdom of Azores, and he should be able to write a few books...not a professional, It is basically impossible to be so "efficient".

So there should be false information in it.

However, it is not easy to deceive Dalton's instructor with false information-this requires at least extremely careful thinking and absolute sober reason, and at the same time, he has to be convinced.

Loren of look steadily forward shook his head slightly, denying his thoughts.

The "hint" of Dalton's mentor will never be for such boring things.

It must be a very simple problem, but it cannot be said clearly that you have to let yourself "get along" with this elf warrior before you can gradually wake up.

The wizard warrior...He could have lied and didn't say a word, but he pretended to be crazy and told himself all the information he knew...

What did he want? What to cover up, what do you want to forget?

"he he he …hahahaha …hahahaha …hahahahahaha…"

In the quiet cell, only the elf warrior's still crazy laugh echoed.

In the frantic laughter, there was a hint of restlessness and anxiety.

He said what he wanted to know and what he wanted to know; but he was always avoiding an important and critical question;

One he absolutely knew, but never Speaking question.

"Your Excellency Rod Yell, I want to get an answer from your book."

"This is a very simple question, and it is also a very difficult question. So in order to avoid your hesitation, I’ll tell you at first what the problem is."

In the cell, the black hair wizard half-squatting down was expressionless, looking directly at the wizard warrior calmly. Crazy eyes:

"His Majesty Xiong Yingwang of the Kingdom of Azores...what do you intend?"
