This is a gloomy and somewhat gray room, because it is located in the basement more than ten meters underground, so the light source of this room is completely dependent on the oil lamp next to it.

The flame in the oil lamp flickered gently, shaking the reflection of the people in the room.

The room was not large, but there were many people gathered at this time, and in the middle of the room, there was a man tied to a cross.

His upper clothes were removed, and there were many injuries on his body, and traces of criminal law such as whipping and cannon branding were left on it, telling how cruel he had experienced.

His head drooped weakly, and his face was covered by long hair, and his facial expression could not be seen at the moment, and he could only be simply judged from his slightly undulating chest that he was still alive.

Sitting across from this man was a tall, elderly nobleman.

Although his hair was a little gray, he was in good spirits.

Dressed in a rather luxurious attire, he propped himself up in a chair with one hand, gently rubbing his temples and examining the prisoner in front of him.

"He didn't explain anything?"

The aristocratic lord asked a muscular brother beside him with a headache.

"Unfortunately, Lord Duke, he is a bloody assassin specially trained in the Sygnari Hut, and we have used many kinds of punishments without any useful information coming out of his mouth. ”

The person who spoke was Ivan, he was one of Duke Grant's most trusted subordinates, and at the same time, because he brought back the prisoner in front of him, Duke Grant had always entrusted the interrogation to Ivan.

After listening to Ivan's answer, Duke Grant said with some dissatisfaction: "I know that he is a bloody assassin, but don't we also own the mountain falcon?

Ivan lowered his head slightly, and said helplessly: "It's a pity, Lord Duke, for the past month, it has been all the people of the Mountain Falcon who have been interrogating him. ”

Hearing this, Duke Grant suddenly felt his head wide.

"Your Majesty only gave us a month, and now a month is almost over, but there is still no useful news from his mouth, how can you ask me to explain to Your Majesty in the future?!"

Duke Grant didn't lose his temper with Ivan, he looked as simple as complaining about work to an ordinary friend.

If others see it, they will be very surprised by Duke Grant's attitude towards Ivan, after all, one of them is a superior, one is a subordinate, one is a noble, and the other is a commoner, Duke Grant is so approachable, it is really unimaginable.

"It's my incompetence that has disappointed the Duke. ”

Ivan immediately bowed his head and admitted his mistake, and Duke Grant said angrily: "What are you doing? I'm not blaming you." ”

After speaking, he sighed and said, "I'm just lamenting, how will I deal with His Majesty the Emperor in a few days! You know, Your Majesty is really willful sometimes, and when the time comes, I don't know what method he will think of to rectify me......

After saying that, Duke Grant stood up directly, not planning to stay in this oppressive interrogation room.

He beckoned to Ivan, and Ivan walked quickly to his side, only to hear Duke Grant say very calmly: "Calculate the time, Hofkins and they should also come back, let's go, go back to the manor and prepare." ”

Speaking of this, Duke Grant suddenly laughed, he turned his head to look at Ivan and said, "I heard that you are very optimistic about the champion this time, what other gimmicky explosion magic patterns have they made?"

Listening to Duke Grant's words, Ivan recalled the unusual nature of this magic pattern competition, and couldn't help but smile: "It's not optimistic, but the two of them are really interesting, and the magic pattern works that won the championship this year are indeed very innovative." ”

After getting Ivan's affirmative answer, Duke Grant couldn't help poking his hands excitedly, and said with a smile: "That's great, hehe." ”

The two of them said as they left the basement.

Neither of them noticed, and when they left the basement, Monroe, who had been tied to the cross, suddenly raised his head slightly, and his eyes became emotionless and blood-red.

"Gollum!"

After traveling all the way for more than ten days, Roy and his convoy finally arrived at the outskirts of the imperial capital.

As soon as Roy and Ainabel heard that they had arrived near the imperial capital, they both poked their heads out, and they were both stunned when they saw the huge imperial capital in front of them, and they couldn't see the edge of the imperial capital at a glance.

"It's so big!!Is this the imperial capital of our Naru Empire?!"

Ainabel said dumbfounded, she originally thought that the imperial capital would be a city more than twice the size of Dal Town, at most twice as much.

But judging from what they are seeing now, this is not twice as big, this is at least more than 20 times bigger!!

"That's an exaggeration!!What is the matter with the width that you can't see at a glance!!Can manpower really build a capital city of this magnitude? Could it be that this capital city only looks so wide, but in fact it is only a little bit long?!"

Roy couldn't believe what he was seeing, and even began to guess that the imperial capital was actually a city with a very wide width but a very short length when viewed from the sky, just because they were now blocked by the city walls, so they couldn't see what was going on.

"Roy, are you stupid! How could there be such a city in this world!"

When Ainabel heard Roy's words, she immediately laughed at Roy's ignorance, even she knew that it was impossible for a city to be built like this, let alone an imperial capital?

Hofkins sat across from them and listened to their conversation, and couldn't help but speak: "As the largest and largest city in our Naru Empire, the administrative area of the imperial capital is far more than what you see, and the capital city that is now located in front of you is nothing more than the administrative center of the usual administrative offices of Your Majesty and the officials of the kingdom. ”

"Is the office so big?!"

Roy was stunned, that is, this is just His Majesty the Emperor's office, right?

It's corrupt!

If the people in the Imperial Capital are so corrupt, then please don't hesitate to help them build the Demon Pattern Workshop, so be so corrupt!!Roy won't mind at all!!Really!!

Amid the incessant admiration of Roy and Ainabel, the convoy slowly entered the capital, and Hofkins coped with the cross-examination very casually, and then led the convoy into the city.

After entering the city, Hofkins did not delay and went straight to Duke Grant's estate, if he guessed correctly, Duke Grant was probably impatient......
