The Low-Key Life of a Necromancer

Chapter 503 Torture to Extract Confessions

The war hammer swept across, the long sword cut back, Duke Feng and Lian fought back and forth, enjoying the fight to the fullest.

The two main generals fought against each other on the battlefield, and the soldiers of both sides attacked each other frantically.

The bustling battlefield was in chaos. At this moment, command had lost its meaning and everyone was fighting based on instinct.

But Lord Feng and Lian still had some energy left, and while no one was paying attention to them, they fought and communicated tacitly at the same time.

"Lian, has the Northland's battle formation textbook been updated? Get me a copy when you have time!"

"Okay, but you can't go out in public, you can only study on your own!"

Duke Feng swung the hammer with all his might and gave Lian a thumbs up.

The standard long sword in Lian's hand was broken by the hammer. Lian pulled out the spare sword from the horse's back and slashed a white mark on Duke Feng's armor with his backhand.

"Uncle Feng, what do you think of my opening attack?"

"You mean those fumes? Kind of sneaky, but not very effective."

Mr. Feng did not admit that the smoke caused him trouble, but after a pause, Mr. Feng asked about the price of the new YiTouBao.

"How much is one of those smoking Yitoubao?"

"Sorry, the new equipment is still under testing and is not on the foreign trade list."

Lord Feng hit Lian in the face with his shield, forcing Lian to step back three steps.

Lian was a little angry and raised her sword to chop at Lord Feng's head.

The sword blade hit the iron helmet with a bang, which scared the people around and made them move away.

"You can always sell the cannon barrels you just carried on your shoulders!"

"Well, it's sold as a set just like YiTouBao, with 30 shells and a free cannon barrel."

Lord Feng sighed and cursed Lian in his heart for being a bad person.

"Fighting skills! Raging attack!"

"Sword Skill! Meteor!"

Duke Feng and Lian fought each other with one move, neither of them holding back. After their fighting skills collided, both of them were knocked back.

Lian's adjutant saw them separate and quickly took the opportunity to interject.

"General, enemy reinforcements have arrived!"

Lian looked up and saw a group of people running towards them in the distance.

Lian knew that there were no reinforcements on her side, so the team in the distance was most likely the reserve troops of Duke Feng.

"retreat!"

Lian sent out a retreat signal, and the female soldiers immediately separated from the entangled enemy, taking their wounded companions with them and quickly evacuating the battlefield.

Duke Feng did not create any obstacles for Lian. When he saw that they were about to leave, he kindly called on his men to make room for Lian.

"Grand Duke, are we just going to let them go like this?"

Duke Feng glared at the adjutant who was looking for trouble, then sighed and explained the matter to the short-sighted adjutant.

"The main purpose of today's battle is to verify the results of the training we have been doing for a while. There is no other meaning."

The place of the battle was not a strategic location, and Lian was not a mortal enemy, so there was no need for both sides to fight to the death.

Only then did Duke Feng's adjutant understand his leader's situation. He ran to count the losses in shame and prepared to send the wounded to the hospital.

Duke Feng was very satisfied with the battle with Lian. He saw the growth of his soldiers and also mastered some of the northerners' tactics.

Similarly, Lian was also very happy when she returned to the castle. She pulled Xiaoli and kept explaining her outstanding performance on the battlefield.

"Xiao Li, let me tell you, Uncle Feng was completely stunned at the time. I had the artillery create a smoke screen and quickly approached him to catch him off guard~"

Lian was talking while gesticulating, leaving Xiaoli speechless as she accompanied her.

"Also, Uncle Feng and I fought several times, and we ended up in a draw. I am really good enough to fight a famous general of the kingdom to a draw!"

"Yes, yes, Miss Lian has always been amazing."

Xiaoli knew that she couldn't escape Lian's nagging, so she simply went to the cupboard and got some cream-flavored melon seeds.

Lian, who took the melon seeds, became even more excited and almost used her fighting skills in the living room.

"By the way, where did Li go? Is he still interrogating those mages?"

The excitement gradually subsided and Lian asked about Li's situation.

Li is in this castle, but he has never shown up. He must be doing more important things.

There were many captured magicians in the castle's dungeon.

These magicians were all members of the Eye of Truth. Their leader, Yodel, was killed by Li, and these small fry stopped struggling.

The magician who was once high and mighty suddenly became a prisoner. The change of identity made these people sad for several days.

"After all this time of negotiation, you should have realized that no one will save you. Are you still unwilling to speak up?"

When they were first imprisoned in the dungeon, these magicians held their heads high, acting like they were the best in the world.

They also went on a hunger strike for several days, repeatedly saying that they would never eat a single bite of prison food.

As a result, after being hungry for a few days, they ate more deliciously than anyone else.

Two days ago, Li had people provide the magicians with black bread and bean soup, making these magicians eat the cheap food of the common people and eroding their self-esteem.

Today, Li brought some delicious food he made himself. Li pointed at a plate of barbecue on the food cart beside him and glanced at the group of magicians with disdain.

"Whoever tells me about the Eye of Truth first will be able to taste these delicacies first, and I can even let him leave the prison!"

The magicians swallowed their saliva, but no one responded.

Li was not surprised and just used magic to light the pile of firewood under the dining car.

The flame slowly releases heat, heating the iron plate above.

Li took out the raw meat that was on the side and pierced it quickly with a fork to make it soft.

Spray a little cooking oil on the hot iron plate, use tongs to spread the soft meat slices on the oiled area, and sprinkle spices on the surface of the meat slices.

The heat wave brought out the delicious flavor of the spices, and the prison was suddenly filled with the aroma of food.

The hungry magicians sniffed uncontrollably, as if possessed. They tried to capture the fragrance in the air with their nostrils to make up for not being able to eat properly for many days.

Li unfolded the cooked meat slices, spread sweet sauce on them, and added a layer of chives.

Use a spatula to roll up the roast, wrapping the sauce and chives in the middle.

With a few swishes, the spatula cut the barbecue into pieces, turning the originally long strips of meat rolls into bite-sized pieces.

Li put the barbecue he made himself into a snow-white porcelain plate, carefully arranged it into shape, and added a cauliflower as embellishment.

"As long as you are willing to reveal the information, you can..."

Before Li could finish his words, a white hand snatched the plate away.

Lilith couldn't wait any longer. She had been in the royal capital for the past few months and hadn't eaten the food cooked by Li himself for a long time.

"Lilith, I'm still interrogating you, can't you just be patient for a moment?"

Lilith puffed up her lips and uttered a vague retort.

"There are still so many materials, just keep working on it~"

The materials are indeed available, and there is also plenty of time.

Li picked up another piece of meat and started working on the iron plate.

"It seems that they are not very obedient, Lilith, why don't you try to torture them with blood magic?"

Lilith didn't respond, she just ate greedily.

Li was speechless, he asked Lilith to come over to cooperate with the interrogation of these prisoners, but he ended up cooking for Lilith.

Is there something wrong with this?

Before Li could think of a new idea, the magicians imprisoned in the prison crowded towards the door agitatedly.

"Whatever you want to ask, I'll tell you! I want a portion of that barbecue too!"

"And me, I know more than him!"
