Chapter Seventy-Three: Interrogation
Franner's words completely broke Green's will, as a magician, when Green heard that he could still live, he immediately made up his mind, and said everything he could, as long as he didn't divulge everything about his master Steven, he would have a chance to live.
Of course, Green is not a fool, he will not tell all the unsightly things he has done honestly, in this regard, he has quite a lot of experience, on the other hand, Ryan, although he has more than a year of adventurous experience, but he does not know anything about how to interrogate prisoners, and the gap in experience between the two of them is probably bigger than the magic gap between them.
Despite this, what Green said made Ryan want a fireball to kill him, and at least 3 times he killed more than 50 mercenaries by hiring first and then sneaking up, including the most recent one, where they ambushed the Brave Mercenary Group, and a total of seventeen mercenaries from the group were killed on the spot.
Ryan then understood why Green would first say the names of the goddess and the brave when he was in the mercenary guild, of course he knew that the goddess mercenary group was all women, and the brave mercenary group had just been destroyed by him, so naturally it was impossible to make a deal, so he would not find himself too abruptly. Ryan also understood why when he first arrived here today, there was still a smell of blood in the air, which was seventeen lives.
Green avoided telling a lot about his own experience, and even bluntly said that his so-called viscount was also obtained by improper means. The empire had many titles at the beginning, and after hundreds of years, there would always be descendants of the lost family who could not continue to live, and he spent a lot of gold coins to buy some things about this viscount from a broken noble descendant, such as the family crest and so on. Of course, Green didn't admit that he killed the viscount: murdering a nobleman, or a nobleman with a title, that nature was completely different.
After all, Ryan lacked interrogation experience, and when he saw that Green had told him a lot of old things from decades ago, he interrogated him several times to confirm that Green was not lying, so he let him go. He untied the rope that had helped Grimm - it was still found in Green's carriage - and threw the piece of roast meat that was somewhat cold in his hand to Green, who took it, and ate it like a beggar with great care, without regard for the interests of the nobles and the dignity of a magician.
After eating the food in his hand, Green said that he wanted to poop, Ryan frowned, pointed to a place downwind, Green walked over with his pants, and then squatted behind a large tree, revealing half of the clothes he was wearing.
Of course, Green didn't really want to get rid of him, he was actually preparing to escape, and at this moment Allendo interrogated Yarman in another direction, in order to prevent Green and Yarman from passing any news to each other, Allendo and Ryan deliberately chose a place far enough away so that the other party could not hear the sound of the interrogation.
After Green woke up, he has been looking for a chance to get out, first prepared to hide everything about his master Steven, relying on his identity as a magician, waiting for the master's rescue, his honest answer is not not paralyzing Ryan, but he didn't expect Ryan to really believe him, let him go alone to relieve his hands, originally Green was also ready not to get the opportunity, so he could only wait for the master's rescue. Now that he had the opportunity, Green decided to take advantage of the darkness to escape.
Green is worthy of being an adventurer with more than ten years of experience, in this short period of time, he has completely a fairly detailed escape plan in his mind, Green knows that the place he is in is far away from the druid, but with only him as a magician, it is still very difficult to avoid the druid's tracking in such a large woods, his plan is very simple, first create the illusion of his escape, and then hide near here, Ryan They will definitely follow, most of them will go in the direction of returning to the free heaven, and he will wait for dawn in the same place。 Generally speaking, after a night of tracking, it is inevitable that there will be some slackness, and he Green can use this time to escape to the north, as long as he leaves here and comes to any town, he has a lot of gold in his storage pocket, which is enough for him to change his appearance and avoid Ryan and their tracking.
Green took off his clothes with the help of the trees, which was a difficult thing to do, because he had to make sure that the exposed part of the clothes did not move too much, otherwise it would attract Ryan's attention. It was easy to accomplish this thing, and Green's forehead was already covered with sweat. Grimm didn't bother to wipe away the sweat, and he silently recited a spell, which was a magic that increased the caster's physical dexterity, "Spirit Cat Sensitivity". After blessing this magic, Green carefully raised his foot, took a step out, and then carefully lowered his foot to avoid stepping on the fallen branches and leaves, which would alert Ryan.
After walking a few steps, I heard Ryan's voice: "Your movements are really slow!"
Green's heart was startled, he turned his head to look at the source of the sound, only to see Ryan leisurely leaning against the trunk of a large tree not far from him, looking at him with a smile. "It's been discovered!" Green immediately made a decision, and sharply recited a few short incantations, and there were suddenly four more mirror images around him that were exactly the same as himself, and then Green quickly recited the second incantation, blessing himself with protective fire magic.
Green's adaptability made Ryan breathtaking, isn't this a copy of today's battle between himself and Green? But Ryan has now figured out a way to deal with Green, he no longer hesitates, and directly raises his hands. Four purple magic missiles shot out of his fingertips without warning, making four beautiful trajectories through the night's woods, hitting all four of Grimm's mirror images with unmistakable accuracy.
Without a sound, four magic missiles passed through the bodies of the four Greens, tearing them to shreds and disappearing into thin air. Before Green's magic to protect against the flames was completed, he found that his mirror image had been shattered by Ryan's magic missile, and he immediately gave up continuing to complete the magic, but instead blessed himself with a mirror image.
As soon as four identical Grimms formed in the air, they were once again hit by four purple magic missiles and turned into air dust. Undeterred, Green continued to bless himself with the Mirror Technique.
He had just blessed himself with another mirror image when he saw the oncoming purple magic missile, but this time the magic missile was a little different from the previous two times. The thought flashed through Green's mind, and before he could figure out what the difference was, he felt the burning pain coming from his face.
With a scream of pain, Green covered his blood-spattered face and fell to the ground, at this time, he finally understood what was different about the magic missile just now, because this time there were five of them, and the previous two times were four.
Five magic missiles against five images, no matter which one is true, will be hit by this, this is the solution that Ryan just came up with before, and it is also the first time in Ryan's life that he has created a new magic that is completely his own.
"Why bother?" Ryan shook his head slightly, if he hadn't prepared to take Green back alive, Green would have died at least twice. Looking at Green who was struggling in pain on the ground, Ryan had no pity, just by virtue of the crime that the magician had just confessed, it was enough to use the most severe punishment - hanging.
Ryan walked up to Green in a few steps and gave him a hard kick in the back of the head, causing the screaming guy to shut up. But even in the coma, the poor creature still twitched from time to time. Ryan examined Green's wound closely, and it turned out that the magic missile had just hit his nose, and the nose of the fragile magician was smashed on the spot.
looked at his "masterpiece" and scratched his head a little embarrassed, he didn't seem to use all his strength, how could it cause such a big trauma. "Alas, poor fellow, I hope you can smell the food again in the future. Ryan secretly prayed for Grimm in his heart.
When Yarman saw Green's bloody face, his psychological defenses immediately collapsed. Yarman thought that this was caused by Ryan's torture to extract a confession, and since the other party didn't even care about a magician, and used this method, it was better for him to be honest. Yarman remembered how he had tortured the mercenaries of the Brave Mercenary Group the other day, the guy begged him to kill him, Yarman liked to hear the wails of others, but he didn't have the guts to endure that kind of pain himself.
Since there was no communication between Green and Yarman, although they both tried to avoid the interrogation of Ryan and Allendo, the tacit understanding between the two was not very good, and there were always some things that one person said and the other did not, so that Ryan and Allendo knew more about the evil deeds they had done.
Under Yarman's explanation, except for the relevant things about their master Steven, the rest is almost all known to Ryan and others, and the entire Grimm team is basically specially hired mercenaries and then killed in a secluded place, in order to obtain the harvest of their adventures from these mercenaries.
This was also the case with Ryan, who remembered the adventure of the Six Arrows Mercenary Regiment. In fact, whether it was the unknown squad that was killed with the six arrow mercenary groups last time, or the Green squad this time, their strength was good, and they could complete the task well with their own strength, but they had to use this method that was almost unearned.
These two things made Ryan feel a little confused: "Is it really so ugly in people's hearts?"
