After the lich's translucent shadow was silent for a moment, he said in a low voice: "What do you want to know?"
Lorraine had a victorious smile on her face, crossed her legs on the table, and looked at the lich opposite with a playful expression.
Looking at Lorraine's expression, even though there was only a shadow left, Usipeter still shuddered unconsciously.
Usipeter could remember that when he was conducting experiments on captured living people in his laboratory to test various bizarre theories, he had the same Lorraine expression on his own face.
That's the natural expression of interest when someone suddenly encounters a fun toy.
At the same time, Usipeter immediately remembered the expressions of the "toys" in his hands at that time. They were angry, desperate, regretful, and desperately praying that he could spare his life.
At this moment, wasn't he just a toy in the hands of the humans opposite him?
Thinking of this, Usipeter couldn't help but feel palpitations. He clearly remembered how he tortured those toys by changing the rules.
He wantonly controlled them in the palm of his hand, making those miserable test subjects unable to survive or die, making fun of their pitiful human emotions, and taking pleasure in their painful wails.
Now it's his turn to play the role of "toy". And there is no doubt that he will be Lorraine and their favorite human toy.
Thinking of these cold feelings, even a lich named Usipet could not help but feel fear. Human beings must have prepared various cruel methods to wait for him.
"Boss, boss," Leo quietly pulled Lorraine's clothes.
Lorraine turned her head and saw Leo's big black and white eyes widened, looking at him eagerly.
Lorraine curled her lips, usually when this look appeared, this kid would be up to no good.
Either he suddenly offended Catherine and wanted to seek refuge from him, or he ruined Adele and the others' precious cosmetics and tricked him into filling the bottle for him.
Or he might try another way to get something out of his house. Anyway, when Leo is pretending to be cute, he has to be extra vigilant.
But this kid always seizes the right time and opportunity, even if he doesn't want to talk to him sometimes.
Lorraine pushed Leo's forehead and said, "You have something to say, don't be so disgusting."
Leo smiled flatteringly, rubbed his chubby little hands, and whispered: "Boss, am I usually very loyal?"
Lorraine rubbed her nose and thought: Oops, this must be very difficult to handle.
Leo said with a mysterious expression: "Look, when you usually go out to do something, I am not always covering for you in front of my sister and the others."
Catherine's crystal ears sitting next to her pricked up, and she caught a few sensitive words. She glanced at Lorraine with her beautiful eyes, leaned into Lorraine's ear, and said in a low voice: "Can you please tell me, what?"
'What on earth is it?"
At the same time, Catherine's slender fingers had skillfully pinched a piece of soft flesh on Lorraine's waist.
Luo Linna also joined in the fun and said: "That's right, we also want to know if it is Melia."
Hilmeria nodded heavily.
After the peacekeepers surrounded Halilgard, Lorraine and Archduke Julius were on the front line, while Catherine and Adele were at the rear not far from Halilgard. At that time, there was no one around Lorraine except Vera.
Tube.
Vera is a silly girl who is easy to deceive, and Lorraine can coax her obediently with just one word.
In particular, the negotiation site between the peacekeeping force and the Confederate Army who wanted to rebel was arranged in an entertainment venue such as a nightclub. It was a place where there was no purpose but Catherine and the others had long been wary.
Lorraine knew that if she didn't cope well, the happy life she planned would be ruined.
During this period, I was either fighting on the front line or rushing to catch the lich. My pillow was empty for a long time.
The worst-case scenario must not be allowed to happen. Lorraine coughed and huddled in the corner with his fingers. The lich Usipeter shrank like a frightened dog and said seriously: "Business matters. You guys."
…”
Catherine snorted and said with a smile, "Isn't this just business? Leo, tell me."
Leo felt like he had said something wrong. These girls must have reacted too strongly, and the boss would suffer...
Leo swallowed nervously and said calmly: "If I said that the boss sneaked out to play whack-a-mole, would you believe it?"
Catherine pinched the knuckles of her fingers, raised her head slightly, glanced at Leo sideways, and said in a long voice: "You - what do you mean?"
"I really don't believe it," Leo nodded dejectedly, secretly regretting that this time it was self-defeating.
After thinking about the consequences, Leo said cheerfully: "Okay, I confess, the boss often skips work, drinks with people from the staff, and asks me to cover up."
Then Leo looked at Lorraine and said helplessly: "Boss, I am also forced to be helpless. You have to understand me, little brother."
Lorraine was so happy that she wanted to catch this little ruffian and kiss him. She was secretly glad: Fortunately, Leo, this silly boy, is just a kid.
Catherine frowned, the expression on her face was indescribably strange, and murmured: "Is this the only thing?"
Leo nodded and said curiously: "Otherwise you would still think that."
Catherine's face darkened, and she reached out and grabbed Leo's collar. After holding him down, she gave Leo a hard knock on the forehead and said viciously: "What's there to say about such boring things?"
Leo screamed "Oh!" and almost shed tears of pain. He held his head and stared at Catherine, daring to be angry but not daring to speak.
Catherine raised her hand to straighten Lorraine's clothes, and gently smoothed Lorraine's collar, with a spring-like smile on her face. She was completely different from the queen just now.
Then Catherine came close to Lorraine's ear, exhaled warm breath from her red lips, blew it into Lorraine's ear, and said softly: "Seeing that you performed so well, you will be rewarded tonight."
Lorraine's eyes lit up and he was delighted. He glanced at Leo and said to himself: "Unlucky boy, you always do things that harm others and do not benefit yourself. I won't care about you today."
"By the way, Leo," Catherine suddenly remembered and said, "What happened to you just now?"
Leo rolled his eyes at Catherine dissatisfied and said, "I want to tell the boss if he can let me interrogate this lich."
Catherine was in a good mood, with tender eyes. She looked at Lorraine and said, "You can just leave it to Leo and let him get some exercise. You will always have to compete with others in the future."
Lorraine was also in a good mood. After working hard for so long, she was looking forward to a few days of short rest. Lorraine waved her hand generously and said, "Okay, I'll leave it to you."
"Okay," Leo immediately forgot about the pain in his head, clenched his fists and cheered, turned his head sharply, stared at the lich opposite him with bright eyes, and gritted his teeth and snorted coldly.
Lich Usipeter was frightened by Leo's strong eyes and took a step back. The boy's eyes clearly saw something interesting.
Leo snorted heavily, grabbed the stool, picked it up and slammed it against the lich with a clang.
Then he sat on the stool with his legs spread wide and stared at the lich Usipeter with wide eyes.
Xiaobai walked up to Leo with an angry look on his face. He faced the Lich with two ivory tusks that were not very long. He glared at him with a pair of eyes as big as ping-pong balls. From time to time, he rubbed his big thighs on the ground.
With his feet, he was ready to rush over and crush the Lich's phylactery at the first command.
Lorraine looked at it and smiled slightly. One of these two guys had a red face and the other had a dark face. Their attitudes looked very professional.
Leo patted Xiaobai and said, "Okay, Xiaobai, don't be anxious, don't be anxious."
Then he turned to look at Lich Usipeter and said calmly: "This friend of mine is in a bad mood today.
He just learned that a terrorist attack occurred at the port, causing him to lose four sets of high-value assets. Sigh..."
Then Leo wiped the hair on his forehead, stared at the Lich steadily, and said: "You may know our policy, which is to be lenient if you confess, and strict if you resist. We will give you a chance, and it's up to you to seize it.
of.
But there is a prerequisite for this, that is, we will not negotiate with terrorists.
Anyone who is identified as a terrorist does not enjoy any rights. And you are a terrorist."
"That is to say," Leo glared at the lich Usipeter and said, "You can choose to cooperate or not, but you are not qualified to bargain with us. Do you understand what I said?"
The Lich raised his head and looked at Leo silently.
Leo slammed the table, shaking everything on the table, and shouted sternly: "Nod if you understand."
Usipet hesitated for a moment, and when he saw Lorraine behind Leo crossing his arms and looking at him with a sneer, Usipet wisely chose to surrender.
"Very good," Leo said, "It seems you understand."
As he spoke, Leo picked up the paper and pen from the side, glanced up at the lich Usipeter, and said in a stern tone: "Name."
Lich Usipeter said dissatisfied: "Don't you already know?"
Leo slammed the table again and said loudly: "Nonsense, I'll ask you an answer."
Xiaobai also said "ouch" and raised his big foot towards the lich.
"Name," Leo repeated stiffly.
Although the Lich had an angry expression on his face, he finally said obediently: "Usipeter, Nammus, Usipeter."
Leo held the pen and drew twice on the paper and said: "Gender."
"You don't know how to see it for yourself~!" Lich Usipeter couldn't help but said in a louder voice.
"Huh?" Leo said in a long voice.
Lester tapped the table from behind to remind Usipeter of the current situation.
"Gender, I'll ask again." Leo put down his pen and looked at the lich.
Usipeter turned away and said angrily: "Male."
Leo looked up and down at Usipeter's shadow, and said leisurely: "I don't see why it doesn't look like it? Forget it, let's write neutral first."
"You~!" Usipeter clenched his fist in hatred.
"Date of birth." Leo asked stiffly.
Usipeter recalled it, showed a confused expression, and hesitated: "It's been too long, I forgot."
"You have to tell me even if you make one up for me." Leo said fiercely.
Usipeter said: "Okay, January 1st."
"Home address..."
"..."
Seeing that Leo was doing well, Lorraine nodded secretly. The so-called interrogation was actually a mental battle, where he continued to pressure the other party through forceful questioning until the other party's psychological defense collapsed.
Usipeter looked at Leo and said slowly: "Spirit flash, Akadrin Imperial City, Iron Prison Street, seven..."
Leo lowered his head and scribbled on the notebook, muttering: "Iron Prison Street..."
Xiao Bai's ears suddenly flapped, his big ears stood up, he lowered his head and glared at the lich and roared, his nose rolled up, and he suddenly wanted to rush towards the lich.
Lorraine was startled, looking at Xiaobai's appearance, wondering what was going on.
At this time, Hilmeria snorted coldly, raised her white palm towards the lich, and a ray of milky white holy light was centered on Hilmeria and shot out in all directions.
The holy light passed through Usipeter's shadow, and the shadow raised its head in pain and screamed silently. The image quickly collapsed and disappeared out of thin air.
The holy light swept across, and the gloomy atmosphere in the room was swept away, and it became bright again.
Leo raised his head, looked at Hilmeria in confusion, and said, "Sister Melia, what's wrong? You can't kill this guy."
Hilmeria clapped her palms, her face seemed to be covered with a layer of frost, she sneered and said: "You dare to use tricks at this time, you are really a guy who is not afraid of death.
This guy is secretly accumulating mana and preparing to release mental spells on Leo. Xiaobai is very smart and discovered the lich's little moves immediately."
"What?" Leo slapped the table angrily and said, "This guy seems to be stubborn to the end. I can't tell you, give him some tricks, Xiaobai."
Xiaobai took the order, stepped forward, raised his big foot and stomped heavily on the Lich's phylactery.
Lorraine and the others could feel the floor beneath their feet shaking for a long time.
Leo also jumped up from his chair, took out his pistol and pointed at the Lich's phylactery, and shouted loudly: "Come out~!"
There was no response at all for a while.
Leo looked at Hilmeria and said, "Sister Melia, you won't really kill him, will you?"
Hilmeria smiled apologetically, spread her hands and said: "Maybe... the attack was a bit harsh. But it won't kill him, it will definitely hurt him."
"That means you're not dead yet, so you won't come out, right?" Leo snorted and said, "Don't think that I can't do anything to you because you're an idiot.
The tiger stool pepper water is not used in the ten tortures of the Qing Dynasty. I have other tricks. Come on, Xiaobai, let's throw it into the charcoal stove to bake it first."
Lester twirled his beard and nodded: "This is a good idea. I haven't seen the results of roasting the lich's phylactery with fire, but it's worth trying."
Leo chuckled and said: "Then, what will happen if you throw him in the toilet and soak him for a while? The boss said that it is a special thing to destroy evil spirits and filth. It is said that black dog blood is not bad at all."
Catherine curled her lips in anger and said, "Stop being such a disgusting person to me."
"Sister, you said you would give it all to me," Leo kicked the Lich's phylactery and was about to lift it to the back, saying, "I'm going to do the Lich's version of the Ten Tortures.
.Boss, do you want to study it together?"
Lester said with a smile: "Leo's idea deserves recognition, I am somewhat interested."
"Of course that's good," Leo held his belly and laughed loudly, saying, "Grandpa, you have the most vicious mind. Even the boss is so powerful that he is afraid of you living in his house, let alone a little lich."
Lester was startled. Although he knew that this boy meant to praise people sincerely, why did his words sound so awkward?
At this time, there was an incomprehensible buzzing sound coming from the Lich's phylactery, like a person talking in a sealed box.
Leo stopped, pointed at the Lich's phylactery and shouted: "Louder, I can't hear you clearly."
Usipeter's figure reappeared from the phylactery, but at this time his shadow was so faint that he could not be seen unless he looked carefully.
The weak voice said slowly: "I will tell you everything you want to know."
Usipeter stopped to take a breath and said, "But I have a condition."
Lorraine sneered and said: "I wish I had said no earlier. I have to kick you twice to understand, you are a dog. However, you are not qualified to negotiate terms with us."
Usipeter was so angry that he gritted his teeth. From the time he was born to the time he became a lich, no one had dared to insult him like this in the hundreds of years. Today was the first time, but he could bear it. The humiliation in his heart felt like it was about to explode.
Usipeter puffed up his chest and said firmly: "If you don't agree, I'll just blow myself up."
Lorraine thought for a moment and said, "Okay, tell me your conditions."
Usipeter breathed a sigh of relief. Although he was humiliated, Usipeter was still scared when he thought of facing death and losing his thoughts and consciousness. He did not dare to imagine the darkness after death.
After hesitating for a moment, Usipeter said: "You must ensure that my soul is immortal."
Hilmeria smiled and said: "Fantino just needs a living lich as a research subject, okay, I can agree to it."
"Will I, Usipeter, be the subject of research?" Usipeter sighed sadly in his heart and said, "Give me a body. You can't imagine the punishment that the high priest will inflict on the defector. If I confess, he will
He will try his best to capture my soul and refine it into his staff to torture me forever."
Hilmeria waved her hand and said decisively: "Don't even think about it. Letting your soul stay in the phylactery is already an act of mercy beyond the law.
You will be imprisoned forever in the Inquisition of Fantino. It is the safest place in the world."
Lorraine took out the shotgun and slapped it on the table, saying: "You heard the conditions, boy, I have lost my patience.
Now you either tell me what I want to know, or I shoot you to pieces. Playing frisbee with a lich's phylactery might be a good game."
Leo's eyes lit up and he shouted: "Boss, I want to play too."
Usipeter let out a long sigh and said, "I hope you can defeat the high priest. Otherwise, I would rather die than be caught by him."
Lorraine said: "Are you colluding with Hadu?"
Usipeter nodded and said: "Of course, without the help of humans, we would be unable to move forward on the mainland."
"Look, this is a good start." Lorraine nodded and said, "I will ask you to testify against Hadou in public."
Usipeter sighed, he had no right to say no.
"How many of you are there?"
"Sixteen...no, seventeen."
"Where are your goals?"
"I don't know. Our tasks were all given to us by Edwood, and we don't know each other."
"Edwood~!" Lorraine said in surprise: "Edwood, Kyle Ray, Dr. Lich?"
Usipeter said feebly: "That's him. The whole action was planned by him in front of the high priest, and he came to the human continent to execute it."
Lorraine sneered, held the handle of the shotgun, and said, "We're old acquaintances, why don't you say hello to me first."
Vera also had an angry expression on her face and nodded heavily.
"But I do know where Edwood is?" Usipeter said suddenly.
"oh?"
Usipeter recalled: "He said that human artillery is very powerful and he wants to get this technology."
