The Blade Warrior's prison was located at the lowest point in the entire Emperor's coalition camp, damp and dark.
After Henry showed the Blade Knight's special certificate and password, everyone was let into the prison.
In the dim light, Eleanor could smell the faint smell of blood and disinfectant in the air, and couldn't help but frown.
She suddenly realized the key point: Blade Warrior's review might not be that...
……humane.
Although she was mentally prepared, when she actually saw the knights in the prison, endless anger surged up uncontrollably from her chest.
Many of these knights she had met at Weisbach Palace before. They were knights who were loyal to the Duke of Bavaria and full of enthusiasm. At this time, they had completely lost their dignity.
Their hair was dry and tangled, covered with dirt. They were sitting slumped against the wall on the moldy straw. Their clothes were ragged, and their skin was covered with wounds and dried blood scabs.
"You used torture to extract confessions?" Eleanor was furious.
"No." Henry quickly explained, "Synthetic assassins may be covered in human skin, and underneath the human skin are hard machines, so to determine whether they are synthetics, harmful inspections are inevitable..."
"If that's the case, one or two puncture tests can confirm it, right? How to explain that they have scars all over their bodies?" Nora asked coldly.
This young lady from a wealthy family had seen even the most hideous wounds caused by war when she was working as a doctor in the wounded camp.
However, when these bloodstains of forced confessions, created with malice and cruelty, appeared before her eyes without concealment, she still felt the same rage of departure.
"Sigh." Henry also knew this person's identity and turned his attention to Aske (you don't care about your people)?
Asker seemed not to notice his gaze, but concentrated on studying the rust on the iron prison railings.
"Well, that's actually the case." Under the eyes of his sister and her best friend, who seemed to be murdering, Henry hesitated for a long time, and finally decided to tell the truth, "Your Majesty suspects that someone in the army wants to assassinate him."
"Assassination?" Eleanor's anger continued, "Because of this, the knights of our Weisbach family are suspected?"
"It's not just our family." Henry said in a deep voice, "All the principalities have sent some 'relatively unreliable' knights to prison. How could we not follow suit? Doesn't this clearly make His Majesty the Emperor doubt us?"
"Do you have evidence?" Nora asked sharply, "If there is no evidence, why should they be tortured?"
"Because it is not His Excellency Henry who has the final say within the Blade Knights." Asker suddenly said from behind, "His Majesty the Emperor wants to strictly inspect the army, so all the Dukes can only give His Majesty an 'explanation'. His Majesty the Emperor cannot trust the opinions given by the Dukes.
As a result, it was specified that the Blade Warriors were to be interrogated, and the Blade Warriors could only give His Majesty the Emperor a corresponding 'explanation'."
Henry nodded hurriedly, saying that Captain Asker, what you said is absolutely right.
Unexpectedly, what Aske said next made Henry's face change drastically and his hair stood on end:
"If the Dukes do not hand over a group of 'suspicious elements', then His Majesty the Emperor will definitely doubt the Dukes, so the Dukes can only choose to sacrifice these knights to protect themselves; similarly, if the Blade Knights do not use the most direct torture,
Then His Majesty the Emperor will doubt the loyalty of the Blade Warrior, so the Blade Warrior can only choose to use extreme measures to protect himself."
"In other words, from the moment the suspicious Emperor said 'strict scrutiny', a group of people were destined to be unjustly accused or even sacrificed." He concluded lightly in Henry's eyes that almost said "please stop".
said.
"This..." Eleanor and Nora were completely speechless. Reason told them that this was indeed the case, but it was difficult to accept it emotionally.
"Why?" Eleanor bit her lower lip and asked uncomfortably, "Just for this reason..."
"Because they are superiors." Ask replied.
"Commander Asker, please stop talking, okay?" Henry was about to cry. This prison is not a safe place to talk. Do you want to take political and ideological classes here?
If someone overhears it and reports it to the Blade Warriors, the Royal Military Police may come looking for it later!
"In short, Eleanor, your father and brother did make such a choice out of similar concerns." Asik saw that her expression was quite uncomfortable, so he reassured her, "Of course there is no solution.
.”
"What can I do?" the two girls asked at the same time.
"The premise of torture is that normal means cannot obtain reliable information from the person being interrogated." Asker said, "So, what if there are abnormal means?"
"For example, reading minds?"
Nora:………………
Oh, how could I forget this?
"Reading minds?" Henry was stunned for a while, then smiled bitterly, "It's just an interrogation by these knights. How could the Blade Knights bother His Excellency the Dragon of Fantasy..."
"No need to bother His Excellency the Dragon of Fantasy." Asik also laughed and pointed at Nora and said, "Because there are disciples of His Excellency Dragon of Fantasy here who can use their mind-reading abilities to help the Blade Warrior interrogate."
Nora:???
Eleanor:???
Wait, when did I... Before Nora had time to refute, she heard Henry say in shock:
"So it turns out that Miss Nora has already become a disciple of the Dragon of Fantasy?"
"Of course, if you don't believe it, you can ask that demigod." Ask said.
"I'm going right away!" Henry immediately left as fast as he could.
Nora:………………
She read the meaning from Ask's mind, and it was nothing more than using the name of the Dragon of Fantasy to cause trouble and persuade the Blade Knights to release these innocent knights.
According to Ask's understanding of the Fantasy Dragon, on the one hand, this demigod needs to use the Blue Sword to contact the Succubus Queen. On the other hand, he has a relatively easy-going personality, so there is a high probability that he will not resist lending his name.
Come on.
Oh, forget it. Anyway, it has almost become a tradition for our team to establish connections for team members. For example, Mia and Rasul, or Paige and Agrippina, etc.
As long as these poor guys can be saved... Nora looked at the prisoners behind the iron bars and secretly activated the "life" ability in her hand. The light green light of healing lit up from her hand and fell on the knights inside.
On the body.
Although there is no cohesion effect of the treatment gun, the treatment effect may be lower, but it can at least alleviate their pain.
The knights in the cell raised their heads, and there seemed to be a glimmer of light in their numb eyes. However, soon in the shadow of the adjacent aisle, a certain blade warrior quickly appeared and warned her displeasedly:
