Chapter Nine Message on
After a while, Richard and Liusha returned to the forward base. Now Richard has made a clear idea and has given priority classification for the next action. First, it is to obtain information, including information from the Baron and the surrounding areas. Secondly, it is to strengthen everyone's combat effectiveness, and finally it is to solve the problem of recruiting troops on this plane.
When Richard returned to the base, all the people who were injured by the contract power rushed back to the base. He was relieved when he saw Richard safe. So Richard reassigned some tasks. This time it was Gonde, Shuisai and Oral to detect the terrain. The awakened ogre three-pointer helped the infantry knights clear the battlefield and renovate the equipment. Tiramisu needed to show his magical abilities, and he had to copy a large number of language-based scrolls.
Solving language problems is the first step in taking root of ectopic planes.
Since the interrogation progress of the elf Oral was unsatisfactory, Richard decided to interrogate the prisoners by himself this time, Liusha as an auxiliary to prevent Richard from killing the prisoners by mistake.
Oral had already asked some things, but his technique was too gentle, so he was always stuck at some key points. For example, how many jazz there were at the Baron, how many troops there were, what was the original follow-up plan, the terrain and power distribution map of the Baron's territory, etc. The elves obtained some contradictory and unscrupulous rhetoric.
The increasingly intense sense of crisis in my heart has completely lost Richard's patience.
At this time, every hour passed, the danger may increase exponentially. Perhaps the baron's army was already on the way, and even the gods who issued oracles might have issued new orders. How could he let these prisoners waste precious time?
When Richard walked into the small but fully equipped interrogation room of the base, the two prisoners who could still bear punishment were inexplicably cold war at the same time, as it seemed that the light in the room was dimmer as Richard entered.
The two prisoners were covered in bruises, but their injuries were not serious. They were both in their thirties, with firm will, strong physiques, and outstanding strength. The level of level five warriors was the guarantee that they could survive. They had sharp eyes and were obviously experienced veterans.
Richard looked at them a few times and knew that such people were relatively difficult to deal with, but they were not unsolvable. There were only two types of people who could not solve the problem of torture, that is, people with fanatical beliefs or who should protect them at all costs.
At the same time, the veterans were also observing Richard. When they saw Richard's expressionless calm face and a pair of slender, delicate and stable hands, their faces were strange. When they saw Liusha coming in immediately, these two veterans who had successfully teased the elf poet finally changed their colors completely.
Richard quickly checked the tools at hand, then looked at the injuries on the two veterans, and he skillfully cleaned his movements. He had practiced this set of techniques and procedures in Naya's kitchen countless times, and he could even use them accurately without thinking about anything. This is one of the most authentic techniques in the dark world.
Since entering the interrogation room, Richard has never said anything, but just did his own thing silently. The two veterans were shocked.
"Hey! Hey! Boy, what do you want to do?" When Richard hung the chain on a veteran, he finally couldn't help but screamed in fear.
Whether the veteran was yelling, intimidating or using the facts as a temptation, Richard turned a deaf ear to him, just hung him up and picked up the tools.
"Ah!! I curse you! The pagan who should be on the stake!" The veteran's shrill cry came out of the interrogation room and spread from afar.
No matter how loud the volume in his ears, Richard's movements were consistently fast and stable, never pausing. Clean tools quickly stained with flesh and blood, and were thrown down again, and Liusha also began to use minor injuries. Five minutes, Richard had used all the tools, while Liusha put seven minor injuries in a row. The veteran hanging in the air no longer had the strength to roar, and could only roll out of his throat with vague moans.
"It's time for the next one." This is the first sentence Richard said after entering the interrogation room.
"No! Don't touch me, I say! Whatever you want to know, I say it!...ah!!" The former veteran was put down, and the second veteran was hung up. Richard did not intend to stop and listen to what he was going to say, but began to repeat the previous operation at a constant rate.
It took another five minutes, the tool was used for the second time, and the flowing sand used six minor injuries and a more effective treatment.
The two veterans were released back to their original place, still covered in bruises, and seemed no different from ten minutes ago, but the rebelliousness in their eyes had completely disappeared.
With a clamor, Richard threw the blood-stained tool into the bucket filled with cold water, washed his hands, and then sat in front of the two veterans and asked lightly: "Now, what do you want to tell me? Oh, and let me remind you again that the priest only used one-third of his mana."
A few minutes later, Richard knew everything he wanted to know. He broke up the questions and asked several times to confirm that the two veterans did not lie. During this process, both veterans fainted several times and were awakened by ice water. Richard would not let them unconscious and did not need to use refreshing spells. In this case, ice water is the best effect, especially the whole body is covered with dampness and biting cold, and the water droplets in the holes that are constantly dripping from the ends of the hair and the flow of water crawling down the spine. It is the best awakening agent.
After confirming that they could not ask anything again, Richard and Liusha looked at each other and both noticed the hidden worries in each other's eyes.
It can be confirmed that this is indeed a secondary plane with high-end force. The advance base is located at the territory of the Duchy of Baiyan. This area is complex, mostly with mountains and forests. There is a river more than ten kilometers away. After leaving the mountainous area, it is a rich alluvial plain. At the turn of the river, it is the castle and port city of Baron Fossa. Sir Gaoyo is one of the five jazz under Baron Fossa.
This plane has abundant rain and abundant land, developed farming technology and abundant food, so it naturally reproduced a large number of people. Except for mountains and forests, the territory of Fossa is only a few hundred square kilometers for human settlements, but has a population of nearly 200,000. Corresponding to the huge population base, the Baron Fossa retained a standing army of over 1,000 people, and has dozens of awarded knights. According to the tradition of this plane, those who obtain the title of knights by relying on personal strength and merits are called awarded knights, and they will get a small manor as a fief. However, warriors from civilian origin can only become awarded knights if they reach level ten in their military power.
Baron Fossa, who is over fifty years old, has only a level eight combat power, but this does not help change the predicament Richard is currently facing. The Baron also has five jazz, dozens of knights, and thousands of professional warriors, which is enough to submerge his small team of less than twenty people.
