Neuss whispered to Dudian after Hawkeye left: "Master, what do I need to do?"
"Change the way you address me. Don't call me 'master' anymore. Just call me like the others." Dudian gently leaned on the chair: "You don't need to do anything. I'll help you reach the peak of senior hunter's physique as soon as possible. Your 'Devourer' magic marks won't be afraid of toxins. You will be the one to test my food and drink in the future. Remember not to expose your magic marks so that others will think of more vicious ways to poison you. "
Neuss replied in a low voice: "I understand, Sir."
Dudian nodded. He took the risk to bring Neuss to protect himself with the help of the 'Devourer' magic marks. After all, he was confident that he wouldn't lose to anyone in the outer wall. But there was no one in the world who would be so stupid as to fight in an open and aboveboard duel. Strong people often die in the hands of villains. Let alone him, even ten times stronger people may die if they encounter a powerful poison.
Half an hour passed.
Hawkeye came into Dudian's office with a scarred youth. He threw the youth on the carpet and reported: "Elder, the traitor is the one who leaked the information!"
Dean's eyebrows slightly raised as he looked at the dying youth. Under the cruel torture, his whole body was exposed. His hands seemed to have been smeared with something. His skin was rotten and brown. Some of the flesh and blood had fallen off as if it had been cooked at high temperature, exposing the white phalanges inside. His whole body was trembling, and he couldn't see any teeth in his mouth.
"He really found a scapegoat." Dudian glanced at Hawkeye.
Hawkeye's heart skipped a beat as he saw Dudian's eyes. It seemed that all the secrets in his heart had been seen through. He lowered his eyebrows and looked at the carpet in front of his toes.
Dudian intended to hit him to let him know that he wasn't so easy to fool. But he didn't intend to expose him. He looked at the scapegoat: "Why did you betray me? What is the reason? "
The young man's body trembled. His mouth was slightly open, but no words came out. He vaguely said, "I, I … was wrong. Milord … spare … me."
Dean looked at Hawkeye: "How am I going to ask the person behind him if he can't speak clearly?"
Hawkeye's face slightly changed, and he quickly said: "This subordinate was careless, Sir please punish me."
"Forget it." Dean waved his hand: "What is this person's identity? Who did he work for? Tell me the truth."
Hawkeye bowed his head: "Sir, this person is just a messenger. He has no backing. His father was a knight of the dark church but he died in the war against the Holy Church. His mother also died long ago. He has no relatives."
Dean sneered: "No backing, no relationship, how can I be your messenger?"
Hawkeye was stunned.
"You don't want to say, or you didn't check it clearly?" Dudian narrowed his eyes. There was anger in his voice.
Hawkeye's face turned pale as he said: "This subordinate did not hide anything from you. Please give this subordinate a little more time. This subordinate will definitely find out the mastermind behind him!"
"Time is life. How can I give you so much time?" Dean looked at the young man: "Do you know what kind of sinner colluded with the Holy Church to frame an elder? You will be skinned, your bones will be scraped, and your tendons will be pulled out. Moss eggs will be poured into your mouth, ears, and nostrils. You will be immersed in a pig cage, and you will be sunk into the depths of a water prison. Only when your body is gnawed to death by the hatching moss can you be freed! "
The young man's pupils dilated as he looked at Dean in horror: "Elder, I'm innocent. I didn't betray you. I really didn't …"
Dudian indifferently said: "I can spare your life if you tell me who is behind you."
Just as Hawkeye said, he had no one to rely on. It was all because of Hawkeye's appreciation that he was able to become a messenger, but Hawkeye didn't recruit him after promoting him. He had been waiting for this day, but he didn't expect that instead of a promotion, he would be forced to confess under torture. Now he had to confess to someone else, but he didn't have any. How could he confess to someone else?
"I can guess it even if you don't say it." Dudian indifferently said: "I just imprisoned Amy and you betrayed me. Are you one of Amy's people?"
The young man was startled.
Hawkeye suddenly turned around and scolded: "Confess, you'd better confess, is that right or not?"
When the young man heard the words' leniency for those who confess', it was as if he was grasping at the last straw of his life, and he hurriedly said, "Yes, yes, it's like this …"
"Sure enough, you are one of her people." Dean narrowed his eyes and looked at Hawkeye: "Amy has just been detained by me. How dare you use her people to transmit my whereabouts?"
Hawkeye broke out in a cold sweat. He knelt down and said: "My Lord, I really don't know when he was bought by Amy. My Lord, you must believe me!"
Dudian coldly stared at him.
Hawkeye anxiously looked at Dudian. He wanted to use all the sincerity in his heart to let Dudian know his sincerity and frankness. After looking at each other for a few seconds, he saw that the coldness in Dean's eyes gradually subsided. His taut heart suddenly relaxed, knowing that his sincerity had temporarily won Dean's trust.
"I believe you won't do such a stupid thing." Dean said indifferently, and then he changed the topic, "But my carelessness almost put me in danger. This crime is inevitable!"
Hawkeye was bitter. He knew that he could not escape this disaster. He bowed his head and said: "This subordinate pleads guilty. Please punish me."
"Temporarily exempt from punishment." Dudian said in a cold voice: "I hope you can redeem yourself and live up to my expectations."
"Yes, Sir." Hawkeye was relieved and accepted the order.
"As for him, take him away." Dudian said in a cold voice: "Call all the members of parliament for a meeting."
"Yes." Hawkeye stood up and pulled the young man out of the office.
Neuss was touched. He could see the sinister nature of the dark church from the scars on the young man's body. He realized that there were few trustworthy people around Dean. Neuss became firmer in his heart.
"Let's go to the meeting." Dudian got up.
Neuss silently followed him. Dudian had told him to be quiet.
