In the area where the stewards lived, all the maids had been taken away and placed in a unified place, and the guards had been imprisoned. Kalanda and Ji Yijun found an empty wooden house and began to interrogate the puppeteer.

The puppeteer was literally paralyzed and had a broken hand. His face was pale and blue, and he looked like a dead man. When there were no spasms from pain, it was obvious that it was a living person. Whether as a mage or an ordinary person, he is abolished. may be because he has no desire to survive, so he seems to be very uncooperative during the interrogation.

No matter what Ji Yijun asked, he reclined on top and tilted his head to ignore them. He didn't even glance at them.

Kalanda asked questions for less than five minutes before she lost her patience. She said to Ji Yijun: "I'll try it alone, you go out." ”

"Why? I'll do the same. ”

Kalanda pulled out a dagger and said, "I'm afraid it won't be comfortable looking at you." ”

Ji Yijun was very curious and insisted on seeing how Kalanda did it, but when she began to use the technique of cutting radish slices, starting from the other party's fingers from the beginning, and cutting the bones and flesh into thin slices one by one, Ji Yijun felt a chill in her heart. It's one thing to kill an enemy, it's another to torture an enemy. Ji Yijun only lasted half a minute before escaping.

From outside, he could hear the puppeteer's terrible screams and Kalanda's calm voice: "...... If you come out to be a mercenary, you can't be a complete good person. But no matter what, I try to be kind to everyone, even if it's an enemy, I will leave three points of leeway. But, but when Lao Chen fell, I swore that whoever made him like that, I would cut him into pieces!

I've always been a person who yearns for the sun, but that doesn't mean I haven't seen the dark. When you hurt the most important thing in my heart, you managed to help me find an opportunity to release the darkness......"

The angry woman is so terrible, even a steady and kind person like Kalanda would be like this because of Chen Hansheng's anger. Ji Yijun thought that he had so many ex-girlfriends, and it was not easy for him to live peacefully until now.

The screams and conversations continued for about five minutes. Ji Yijun heard the puppeteer crying and said, "I said, I said, there is an antidote, it is in my storage ring." ”

After a few moments, Kalanda walked out.

"Ka, Sister Kalanda. Got the antidote?"

She nodded.

Ji Yijun heard that there was no sound inside, and asked, "Dead?"

"No, I passed out. I'm not in the mood right now, so please deal with it. I'll go and see how to pacify the slaves. Kalanda's expression made Ji Yijun feel complicated and difficult to understand.

"Oh, okay. ”

Ji Yijun opened the door and was so smoked by the bloody and stench that he almost vomited. The puppeteer rolled his eyes and collapsed on the ground, and there were pools of red and yellow everywhere. Ji Yijun stroked his forehead and shouted, "Oh, I'm going to die!"

—————————

It was already dawn, and about ten kilometers from the village, in a glade near the creek, came two men on horseback, one of them wearing a cloak and a mask, and the other dressed as a warrior with a bow and a sword.

When they dismounted, they let the horses drink in the brook and sit down on the stones to rest.

The masked man takes off his cloak, mask, and brown wig, throws them into the river, and transforms into a young man. He had short ocean-blue hair, turquoise eyes, and a long scar across his cheek and nose that split his face into two halves. He's the hall manager. But if his face had been intact, many people in the school would have recognized him as his true identity: Hawke, the storekeeper who had been captured by Cole in the first place.

The warrior was another steward, named Uvico, who looked in the direction of the village with some uneasiness, "Hall, don't you need to see the outcome of the battle?

Hawke took out two loaves of bread from his backpack and handed one to the other person, "You need to be responsible to Lord Baron, I don't need to, I am only responsible to Lord Cole." Master Cole mingles with them every day, and how can he not know how powerful they are. Needless to say, the outcome of this battle must be the end of our people. ”

"It's a shame to say. This camp was picked up by the joint efforts of the three parties. And we've recently recruited several masters through Cole, including mid-level mages. But now there's nothing left. Uviko nibbled on the bread and said angrily.

"If it weren't for your Lord Baron, who wanted to deal with that Chen Hansheng, we wouldn't have been exposed so quickly. Hawke said.

"They're keeping an eye on it. If we don't get rid of this guy who is tracking us, we'll be found out soon. The Baron had no choice but to use the assassination trick. But I didn't expect them to be too powerful. Not only did he track down the whereabouts of the puppet division so quickly, but he actually sent troops directly to attack our camp. ”

Hawke said disdainfully: "After all, you are too greedy, Lord Cole has long warned you to avoid the places where their caravans are haunted. If you can put more effort into selling your goods to the Empire, to the Orcs, or to the Sea Clan, there will be no such thing!"

Uviko sighed and said no more.

"The puppeteer will definitely give an account to the employer. So, Lord Baron, it's time to prepare. Hawke said.

"Aren't you the same?"

Hawke waved his hand again and again, "We? no, no, no, we are just small characters, and we have always been the middlemen between you and those people in the Tower of China. The people of the Tower of China didn't have the opportunity to move around, and they didn't want to reveal their identities, so they approached Master Cole and asked him to negotiate cooperation with the Baron as an agent. And you also need a hidden channel of dialogue with those in the Tower of China. That's what we value.

But the decisions you made had nothing to do with us, we didn't build factories, we didn't trade slaves, we didn't sell products, we just did some auxiliary work. Lord Cole spends most of his time in their domain. So, what if they find the two of us? We're like a little ant, and the hunter doesn't let the two elephants fight, but goes to deal with the little ant in the middle?"

Uvico knows that this is the case, if not for the lack of people who can manage so many complex things. Hawke probably won't even be in this village to preside over the camp.

"Anyway, it's too late to say anything now, it's better to let the baron deal with the follow-up things as soon as possible, shirk what should be shirked, and plant what should be planted. Hehe, aren't the nobles the best at doing these things?"
