Seeing Nickel who had turned into a corpse, Xiao Zhe's face was expressionless.
Xiao Zhe had already obtained all the information he wanted to know, and the shadow master of the Hall family, after enduring unimaginable torture, finally spoke.
It wasn't that Nickel's bones were not hard enough, it was that this kind of pain was unbearable for humans. After enduring it for five minutes, his spirit finally broke down.
The last thing Nickel considered was not how to survive, but to let me die quickly.
In order to be able to die happily, he said everything he knew.
For example, the old patriarch has only one son, Brook, and the waste that has turned into ashes will be the next patriarch of the Hall family.
For another example, the wife of the family treasurer often cheated on his lover when he was not in the castle.
There are many more, regardless of whether Xiao Zhe needs it or not, Nickel said it all at once.
His purpose is only one, and that is to let me die as soon as possible.
After strenuous setbacks and hardships, Nickel finally got his wish.
"Crem him," Xiao Zhe considered for a moment, and ordered the jailer waiting outside, "Don't throw away the ashes. Find a box and put it in."
This was promised by Xiao Zhe, a request made by Nickel before his death.
That is, he was born a member of the Hall family, and died is a dead member of the Hall family. He doesn't want to die in a foreign country, but to return to the roots of fallen leaves after death.
Xiao Zhe could understand this request, so he readily agreed.
The jailer accepted the order and was busy preparing to cremate the body. While Xiao Zhe, Lin and Carter were walking while discussing the next step.
"I think we shouldn't be here waiting for the Hall family to continue sending assassins." Xiao Zhe thought about it for a while and put forward his own opinion, "There is only a thousand miles to catch thieves, there is no thousand days to guard against thieves."
"However, the Hall family's fief is in the northernmost part of the mainland, too far away from West China." Although Carter agreed with him, he also raised some problems. "And we don't have the coordinates there, so we can't build a portal. If we are on the road, even if we don’t sleep, it will take at least a few months."
"Then how did these assassins arrive at West China City in such a short time?" Xiao Zhe asked with some confusion, "Could they not fly?"
"If I guessed correctly, they should use griffon as a means of transportation." Carter thought for a while and gave his guess, "Only this way can I get here in such a short time."
"Then can we use their griffins?"
"It should be impossible." Carter shrugged. "Gryphons are all raised by their masters since they were young. They don't recognize them except the master."
"What should I do?" Xiao Zhe was a little worried, scratching his head, "It's too late for us to train our own griffon now!"
"If you say flying over, I have a way." Lin, who has not spoken, said suddenly, "Don't forget, I am a golden dragon. There is no creature in this world that can fly faster than me. "
"You?" Xiao Zhe and Carter looked at each other, then looked at Miss Dragon in shock, "Can you?"
"Hey, what are your eyes? Do you look down on me?" Lin said with a proud chest, disdainfully.
