    'Brentall did not disturb the general who was deep in thought. He walked slowly backwards out of the room, his steps were very light, and he closed the door.  "

    From beginning to end, no sound was made.

    He knew that even if he waited patiently, he would not get any reply.

    General Rechison was not like this before. Although he is old, he is very shrewd, and no one can match his wisdom and agility.  He has an insight into battles and various abnormal events that is unmatched by others.  But now.  "." He no longer had the majestic and powerful aura that people couldn't resist before.  He is getting older, has no self-confidence, is hesitant and panicked.  Like a bad old man who has squandered most of his family property, he clings to the few remaining parts.  No one dares to believe it, and no one will act or promise anything easily.

    The general is not the only one who looks like this.  In fact, the entire city of Rafael is shrouded in deep anxiety.  The Skeleton Knights no longer had the arrogance and arrogance they had before. They began to become more cautious than ever before, and even became suspicious of everyone around them.  In addition to drinking and venting on different women's beds" Pray, they have lost interest in anything else.

    Brenthall believes that¡ª¡ªthe fall of this city is only a matter of time.

    Walking out of the corridor, looking up at the sunny sky, he let out a long breath.  gas.

    The haze in winter did not reunite the radiation cloud that had mostly dissipated.  At this season, the weather is rarely as sunny as it is now.  There were not many people coming and going on the street, and the view was wide, which seemed to stimulate the dull mood and gradually became soothing.

    ¡°It seems that I won¡¯t be able to stay here for long.¡±.  ""

    Muttering to himself, Brentall walked toward the nearest bar with a smile on his face that only he could understand the true meaning of, but that represented sunshine and gentleness in the eyes of others

    "."

    He is a spy.  A hidden agent belonging to the Dragon Empire who had been placed in Rafael City twelve years ago.

    Brentsole is not Brentsole.

    This sentence may sound very strange.  If you think carefully and know the ins and outs of the whole incident, it is not difficult to understand the hidden meaning.

    He is not the real Brentole, but an out-and-out fake.

    The "Raven Guard" regiment under Meng Yi captured a three-star skeleton knight outside Rafael City twelve years ago.  The name shown on the ID card is Brentall.

    In front of the gloomy and bloody court, Brentall had nothing to hide at all.  All kinds of unimaginable physical torture instruments.  "." Directly using a red-hot soldering iron, while recording the carved patterns on the surface of the scalp and skull, the tied body is also being injected with high-concentration nutritional injections.  As long as the President of the Inquisition or the Emperor does not say anything, he will remain in this state of immortality forever.

    For more than ten days, I ca n¡¯t sleep, and nerve fatigue is to the point where it is almost declining, but under the double attack of current and nutrients, life still retains life.  Through surgery, a new heart is implanted outside the body.  As for the original object that provides blood pressure inside the chest cavity, it becomes the target of the needle and knife.  Suffer more pain beyond the limits of the human body, but it will not cause the victim to die on the spot.

    Not a single muscle in Brenthall's body remains intact, and the recorded nerves are soaked in artificial blood to maintain the freshest vitality at all times.  Every bone in the body had been dug out, and the body was nailed to the wall with steel nails, leaving only a soft and unsupported mass that could never stand up, let alone the skin and muscles to escape.  But even so, he is still not dead. Rand Walker's achievements in human body modification are unmatched.  He can keep anyone alive forever if he wishes.  But in what way does it exist?  "." It depends on whether he is in a happy mood?  Or comfortable?

    The torture was going on every hour.  The Imperial Tribunal seems to never have a holiday or rest day. Whenever those torturers wearing black robes, even their heads are covered by triangular soft hats of the same color, leaving only the eyes and nostrils, appear.  When he saw this, Brentall always had a very strange, complicated feeling between joy and fear.

    The former should be some kind of celebration of survival.  This means that I have lived one more day and lived in this world for another twenty-four hours.

    As for the latter, it should be seen that the mentality of the former is derived from the happiness, and it is naturally derived from the despair and pessimism that will be faced next.  That means excruciating pain.  Not just from meat.  The body, as well as the spirit, thinking, and even the deeper subconscious.  "." This is definitely not an exaggeration, but Bren'sSaul's actual and real personal experience - who can imagine that when the hair on his head is forcibly pulled out, and then the thin metal needles connected to the electrodes are inserted.  This densely packed special "hairstyle", which is not artistic at all, can wake Brunsall up from coma or sleep at intervals of thirty minutes.  The electric current directly stimulates the most sensitive central nervous system. It can no longer be regarded as pain in the ordinary sense. It is also different from the damage caused by torn muscles or the surface of the body being cut. It is like being gnawed by thousands of mosquitoes and ants.  , the smallest piece is bitten repeatedly on the top of the head, resulting in a pinprick-like sting and numbness.  Every nerve connected to it was trembling desperately, sending back to the brain one after another the strongest request for scratching to relieve the itching.  However, "Brentall's two arms had long since lost their function - they were severed at the joints, shoulders and elbows, locks, upper arms."  "Except for the head, all the bones in the body were removed from the body with the most delicate surgical methods. Even without any restraint, the limp limbs would not be able to complete the simplest task of lifting the arm to grab the moxa above the head.  action.

    The only thing Brenthall could do was endure.

    With his eyes widened, he endured it like a refugee on the verge of death in the wilderness.  He had long thought of committing suicide, but was unable to do so.  Even the method of biting off his tongue was impossible. The judges of the tribunal had already removed all the teeth in his mouth.  It even blocked a nerve that controls the powerful bite movements of the upper and lower teeth.  He could never commit suicide under his own power.  to him.  "." Death has become an unimaginable thing. It is definitely not full of fear, but the sweetest word representing happiness and beauty.

    The trial lasted for two years.

    This is beyond torture in the ordinary sense.  In this terrifying environment of complete despair, with no nostalgia for life and no resistance at all, Brentall did not dare to hide anything he said.  Brenthall was brought before the tribunal every day for two years.

    What he did was to keep asking for secrets from his mouth.  Of course, this is not just about the details in Rafael City.  It also includes every detail of Brenthall's life - from his infancy to becoming an Order of the Skeleton Knights.  From the names and characteristics of the people he knew, to all the big and small events that he had come into contact with and kept in his mind, "every little bit" was spoken from Brunsall's mouth and recorded in just the first three months of the interrogation period.  The documents that have been turned into files are already more than 600 pages thick. Among them, the results of repeated interrogations at different times are added, as well as the adjudicator's judgment on the authenticity of the information, the credibility percentage, etc.

    For two years, many of the same problems have been repeated every day.  At the same time as punishment and physical torture, the adjudicator would always suddenly bring up a certain matter that he had interrogated while Brenthol was in a state of near coma.  This may be the content of a conversation between Brenthol and a friend, or it may be his secret peeping at a woman, or the most intimate secrets such as staying alone in a room and having sex.  The reason for doing this is to allow Brenthall to use his brain in an undefended state and instinctively answer the parts that may have been changed by him, or that may have been hidden and yet to be explained.

    Information is collected bit by bit in this cruel and cold way.

    At the same time, the 6571 Base also used Brenthol's blood as the basis to create a clone that was exactly the same as him.

    "Two Brentsoles, accepting two completely different lifestylesc

    Everything that was forced out of the mouth of the restrained person was compiled into written text, and was handed over to the created synthetic life form to recite and memorize it by heart.  Even, according to the interrogation records, they have to carry out daily life according to the former's various habits.  "." In this way, the copied Brentall began to learn to drink very strong coffee, drink alcohol in special bars, unscrupulously reached out to touch women's buttocks on the simulated streets, and even tried to be of the same gender as himself  men are promiscuous.

    ¡°Brentall is not a homosexual in the true sense, and he only vents his violence against women when necessary.  Overall, he should be a skeleton knight with relatively good conduct.  The reason why he divulged things that were completely contrary to human moral norms in his confession was because his life span was too long. Just as Fang Yujie once said to Lin Xiang, "a whole century."  ."  "Whether I'm interested or disgusted, I have to find something to do."

    It has nothing to do with good or evil, it is just for recreation and entertainment.  The new Brentole is more real than the skeleton knight Brentole himself.

    The next thing was much simpler - Meng Yi arranged a reasonable intelligence leak, and the combat troops sent by Rafael City made great achievements.The price finally captured a small town more than 60 kilometers away from the city, and all the hundreds of imperial officers and soldiers responsible for guarding were killed.  In the basement of the military camp, the Knights discovered twenty-nine prisoners of war.  Among them, including Brentall, were three other skeleton knights who were captured two years ago.  The rescue operation was not timely. When the skeleton soldiers rushed into the basement, the remaining two imperial officers were using flamethrowers to shoot at the prisoners of war, trying to kill all the prisoners who were too late to take away.  The flames soared to the sky and burned for nearly ten minutes. The high temperature of nearly a thousand degrees even melted all the metal objects in the room.  "." As a result of the battle, two imperial officers were shot and killed randomly. As for the skeleton prisoners of war in the prison cages, in addition to Brunsall, there were four other non-commissioned officers of different ranks who survived by chance.

    Of course, they were seriously injured and almost burned to death. If they had not reacted quickly enough and completely threw their bodies to the ground at the most dangerous moment, they would have turned into pieces and exuded a burnt smell.  of black carbon.  But even so, the price of the trip was extremely heavy - everyone's backs were completely burned.  Apart from breathing, which is on the verge of death, they cannot even do the most basic standing.

    No one doubts the authenticity of this incident.  Although there was a practice of "bitter meat tactics" in ancient history, no force dared to use this method to treat members of their own side When the surviving prisoners of war were transported back to Rafael City, two soldiers were seriously injured.  Has stopped breathing.  Even Brenthall himself showed signs of confusion and dying.  If the medical staff hadn't done all they could to save him, he wouldn't have been able to survive even twenty minutes.

    He successfully sneaked into Rafael City.  For five years, no action was taken, and no information was transmitted to the outside world.  Even when he accepts tasks and leads troops to go out to fight, Brenthol still shows unforgettable hatred towards the imperial soldiers on the battlefield, and is more ruthless in the eyes of others than in the ordinary sense - he will use the most cruel means to deal with those who do it.  The captured soldiers were even taken as trophies and brought back to the tavern in the city. After being washed and cleaned by the boss, they were made into human meat dishes for a feast.  In his words - "The empire is my eternal enemy."

    Brensol doesn¡¯t know how many imperial spies are mixed in Rafael City?  This is none of his business, and he has no right to dictate to others. He firmly remembers all the precautions that Griffiths told him, the most important one of which is: "Never do anything that is incompatible with yourself."  Irrelevant things.¡±

    He has only one mission: to use the identity of the Skeleton Knight as a cover to get as close as possible to the city lord, General Ratchison, to find out the biggest secret inside the city.

    The Skeleton Knights have set up cities of angels all over the world, and they are not just used as bases. There are also things hidden in them that are not known to outsiders.  Brunsall, who is still imprisoned in the Imperial Tribunal, once said: "The most powerful person in Rafael City is not actually the city owner, Lieutenant General Ritchson. It is the one who lives in the basement of the Central Building.  guy."

    That is an extremely mysterious figure.  After lurking in the city for so long, Brentall had never seen "him".  The only close contact was in General Rechison's office. Of course, it was not a direct face-to-face observation. He just entered the room from the corridor and glanced at the back of a figure who was turning away from the general's room.  .  It's very vague, but you can tell it's a man wearing a light brown suit.  only.  "." Brunsall wanted to take another look but couldn't do it The supernatural aura emanating from that person was unprecedentedly powerful.  It has far exceeded the limit of parasites and is stronger than General Raichison.  At that moment, Brentall felt his mind went blank.  His body couldn't help but tremble violently, and his knees bent involuntarily.  Apart from kneeling down and worshiping, he had almost no other option.

    This is the power of biological deterrence.  It's like a hare suddenly encountering a hungry tiger. Although it wants to turn around and run away, the subconscious fear of the king of beasts cannot make it mobilize its nerves and body organs to react.  He could only huddle in place and tremble, letting the other party open his big mouth and devour him alive.

    Rechison did not provide any explanation for Brenthall.  But judging from his demeanor, words and actions at that time, the general also respected that person.  It can even be said to be unreserved obedience.

    The reason why Lin Xiang did not launch a full-scale attack on Rafael City was precisely because of the existence of such a "person" in Brenthol's confession.  When you don't know the truth of the matter, the best way is to wait

    "."

    All the villages and market towns in the surrounding areas of Rafael City have been captured.

    According to General Rechison¡¯s order¡ªthe only remaining skeleton knights in the city must lead their troops in batches.?Out on patrol.  Of course, this small-scale military operation in units of a hundred people is no longer a purely patrolling of routes, but a tentative attack on those areas that have already fallen.

    After all, the empire cannot have so many troops to launch a comprehensive siege of the city.  They don't seem to want to do that either.  The key areas of control are airports, machinery manufacturing plants and docks.  Due to the serious shortage of raw materials in Rafael City and the lack of supplements from the Americas for a long time, General Rechison could only use a small force to collect.  Although the quantity that can be obtained is not large, and it does not have much effect on the overall situation, it is still better than nothing.

    The goal of Brentsall's team is a small village located in the southeast of the city.  That place was originally where the branch warehouse of Rafael City was located.  The reconnaissance results returned two days ago showed that the empire had no armed forces or immigrants stationed in that area.  If the underground warehouse has not been searched too clean, there should be some ore or unprocessed raw materials left.
