Chapter 56: Ambush beyond ambush
What happened tonight was too sudden, because many young wizards at the banquet were dragging their feet, and Mrs. Chelsea did not catch all the enemies.
But there are still a lot of them, trapped and imprisoned by her, or by the "pets" she keeps, and even swallowed.
Now these prisoners have naturally become the "honored guests" received by the interrogators under Mrs.
Red-hot irons, tough leather whips, torture coffins covered with spikes, and even **** skinning...
These tortures originating from the mundane, under the action of some wonderful magic that makes the senses sharper, the mind clearer, the pain more severe, and even the overdraft of life, making it difficult to die for a while, the cruelty has reached countless levels.
However, no matter how the interrogators tortured the prisoners, no matter how the prisoners' shrill screams were full of fear and pain, there were even those who cried out in terror.
Neither did they reveal the slightest bit of useful information.
In the dark underground prison lit by the brazier, Mrs. Chelsea sat quietly in the hall at the entrance of the prison, listening to various screams one after another, with a calm expression, lowered her head from time to time, and sipped the hot **** in her hands. Tea-
The last time I used this tea to warm the palace and ward off the cold, the effect was not bad, so she asked the life steward in the manor to keep a batch.
"In extremely painful circumstances, the will of these people has a chance to break through the secret spell cast on them, but the chance is very low, and it will take a long time. You have to be prepared."
A beautiful young woman in a traditional long linen dress was standing beside the lady, and said in a respectful tone:
"But if you can use Veritaserum, I think they'll reveal everything they know."
The Secret Word Charm is a well-known secret spell in the wizarding world.
A sorcerer who has been cast on this spell can only talk about the secret with someone who has also been cast on the Secret Word spell and who knows the same secret.
If outsiders want to learn the secret, unless they overhear the relevant conversation or see the relevant clues, it is impossible for the secret controller to consciously leak the information to outsiders.
But the spell is not without a solution.
There are two general methods of cracking it.
One is to keep the subject in a state of extreme pain for a long time, so that their will can constantly wear down the power of the spell, and finally have a chance to break through the **** brought by the spell.
Another category is the use of magic potions.
However, the relevant potions are very precious, and no one is willing to use them easily if they are not forced to.
Mrs. Chelsea certainly did not hesitate to use this potion on her enemies.
In fact, because of being assassinated, she had refined a dose of Veritaserum a while ago.
However, because of the success rate, there is only one dose in her current inventory.
The people who are being tortured at the moment are basically some innocuous little bastards. It is a waste to use them on them.
"Just wait and see."
Mrs. Chelsea responded indifferently.
"If those who slip through the net choose to take revenge on my students, they will naturally not be able to escape our ambush."
…
Mrs. Chelsea, who seemed to have only given Mellon a little snake for self-defense, had actually secretly dispatched personnel to guard Mellon's way back to the Mixed-Blood Association.
So if the enemy will take revenge against Melon on the road, then the enemy will of course not be able to escape this trap laid out by Mrs. Chelsea.
The reason for this, of course, is that she also thought that if the enemy wants to take revenge on Melen, tonight is the best time.
Because after tonight, the Chelsea family, and even the other wizarding families under its command, will send a large number of people to blockade the city of Graham, and even launch an in-depth search.
After all, there have been accidents one after another, proving that there are a lot of gutter rats in this city.
If you don't close the door to investigate and clean up, it will be too detrimental to her identity as the master behind the city.
"Do you think they will take revenge?"
The young woman whispered: "Since they can set up poisonous schemes one after another, they shouldn't be the kind of people who can't hold their breath, right?"
"They didn't know Mellen was my student."
Saying so, Mrs. Chelsea chuckled lightly.
"They will only think that he is a half-blood wizard who was lucky to be picked by Kevin. In this case, although there is a risk in retaliation, the risk is not too high."
"However, in revenge on your students, apart from venting their emotions, what else can they gain?"
"It's not about emotions."
The lady pointed at the other party and said, "If you lead a team to carry out a mission in the enemy's territory, you need to consider the morale of your subordinates, otherwise, if you are not careful, accidents are likely to occur in this team."
"Especially when we block the city next, and they have to hide completely, there must be a reassuring action."
The beautiful woman was stunned when she heard the words.
After the short conversation ended, the screaming screams from the depths of the dungeon became the only movement in the hall.
However, this did not affect the lady drinking tea calmly and giving some orders from time to time through the book of secret words.
She was actually waiting for a message.
The news here, or the news from the ambush over there.
As long as there is news that the location of the enemy can be determined, then she will no longer hesitate and go to the enemy's location to hunt down and kill, so as not to have any accidents during the period that will catch her off guard.
However, just as Mrs. Chelsea thought so, something unexpected happened again—
On the Book of Secret Languages, lines of information continued to appear on the page corresponding to her little apprentice.
This information was silently told to her, while her group was still determining whether the enemy launched a vengeance halfway through.
This little guy, who was targeted by the enemy as the target of revenge, has run to the enemy's lair unscrupulously, "hanging out" once.
"I actually didn't expect it, but if you try the boots that Kevin sent you halfway, you can meet those two guys."
"Then I followed behind them and heard their men running to ambush me."
"And then, I heard that they wanted to take the opportunity to betray their organization, so I followed their **** to see if they could do something."
"And then, I was confused and emptied their treasure house..."
"But no one should notice that I did it. Those two idiots hadn't entered the door when I left. When they break the door and go in, others will only think that they have other accomplices to take things after they see it. shipped away..."
Looking at the lines of words that appeared on the page, Mrs. Chelsea fell silent. UU reading www.uukanshu.com
Or rather, I don't know what to say anymore.
On the surface, tonight's banquet seemed to be nothing out of the ordinary, but not long after she left, the student pulled out a group of enemies and directly saved the lives of a large group of people. He also got a lot of benefits.
Right now, just a few hours after the banquet, the enemy was aggressively running to retaliate against him, but not only did they fail to catch anyone, but their nest was swept up by the target of revenge...
As a result, my student has gained a lot of benefits...
If she hadn't known Mellen's character, Mrs. Chelsea would have even thought that her little apprentice was here to brag.
Or talking in a dream!
There were complicated emotions in her heart, and on the surface, the lady simply replied, "I see."
Then, she turned the page to the corresponding page of a certain subordinate, and was about to ask him to change his action plan, when a message came from the opposite side.
"It has been found out that the enemy is ambushing on Mealworm Street not far from the Mixed-Blood Association, ma'am, but they have used illusion runes to disguise them, and the exact number of people is still uncertain."
If I had seen this news a minute earlier, Mrs. Chelsea would definitely take action.
But now, she felt inexplicably absurd.
A team of elite wizards went to search for a group of fish that slipped through the net. The work attitude was serious, but it was not as effective as her apprentice who just wandered around...
This is of course because the enemy acted cautiously and put on camouflage, but comparing the two, it seems too incompetent...
However, just when Mrs. Chelsea thought that what she experienced today was complicated enough, Mellen sent her another message.
A piece of news that made her face pale.
