Han Chuyu shook his head: "I'm not sure, those are all ancient history."

Major Lindu asked: "Hundreds of years ago, there was a large-scale rebellion of the royal family in the Xingyao Empire. At that time, the fourth generation of species had not yet been born, and our third generation of species was still very young and immature. , the empire is almost completely in the hands of the first generation and the second generation. Because the time for the first generation to transform from human identity was not too long at that time, their concepts and loyalty to His Majesty were far inferior to the current royal family. Therefore, Most of the first-generation species attempted to become kings on their own, and after careful planning, they cooperated with another part of the second-generation species who supported them, and set off the most serious rebellion in the Xingyao Empire so far."

Han Chuyu thought for a while and asked, "Then Duke Mephisto suppressed them?"

Major Lindu nodded: "That's right. Your Excellency the Duke's original identity was not the high-level administrator you see today. He was an officer. Marshal of the Garrison of the Knights. At that time, the first generation broke into the imperial capital in an attempt to murder His Majesty the Emperor. They were unwilling to bow down to such a guy with an inexplicable origin and a mystery. It was His Excellency the Duke who led the Star Knights to stop it. The offensive of the first generation species, and fought back to drive them to the border of the empire's star field."

"The war was very tragic. Both sides were evenly matched powerful first-generation species, and their combat effectiveness was quite strong. In the end, the Xingyao Knights were almost wiped out, and most of the rebels were also slaughtered by His Excellency the Duke. Back then The battlefield is located in the vicinity of the rose star field Sangenos. The planetary belt over there has become barren due to the impact of the huge particle energy, black holes are everywhere, and the space is distorted. Because of his outstanding performance, His Excellency the Duke was awarded the Emperor's Award of Excellence. High praise, becoming His Majesty's most cherished and only confidant."

Han Chuyu said: "But he slaughtered many of his kind."

Major Lindu smiled wryly: "You're right. His Excellency the Duke shot and killed his former companions in the process of chasing the rebels. This is his own initiative. Although His Majesty the Emperor later praised His Excellency the Duke's decisiveness, but this kind of His cruel behavior also caused him to be criticized in the empire. Perhaps because of the pressure of public opinion, although His Excellency the Duke was appreciated by His Majesty, he gradually lost a foothold in the Xingyao Cruise Army. And the rebels were After the annihilation, the voices against His Majesty the Emperor in the empire almost completely disappeared. Seeing that the situation gradually calmed down, His Excellency the Duke left the army. Army domain."

"I tell you this, not to popularize the history of the empire, but to let you know the real side of the Duke. I don't know exactly what is going on in his heart, but he is a goal-oriented person , in order to achieve the goal, you can use all means, even massacre your own kind.”

Han Chuyu vaguely understood: "Is this the reason why the first generation species is on the verge of extinction?"

Major Lindu's expression was a little sad: "Yes, Your Excellency the Duke slaughtered a large number of first-generation species in the rebellion incident, which indirectly caused this generation to be almost extinct. And the first-generation species were also the great contributors to the establishment of the Xingyao Empire, so there are also People doubt whether His Majesty the Emperor and His Excellency the Duke directed the rebellion, wanting to destroy this powerful force. After all, for the king of a country, a strong subject means a threat."

Han Chuyu was silent, feeling a chill behind her.

Major Lindu's tone was very calm, but he could still vaguely see the fierceness and bloodiness of the war that year from these few words.To massacre his own compatriots, if it is the Duke of Mephisto, Han Chuyu believes that he can indeed do it, he is such a terrible man.

He sneered: "Mephisto... the demon who lures humans to fall in mythology, and is loyal to Lucifer, the king of hell. This name really fits his identity. Your Excellency, Major, thank you for telling me so much."

Major Lindu smiled wryly: "You're welcome, this is the only way I can help you in this position."

Han Chuyu asked: "You also seem to have complaints about the behavior of Duke Mephisto and His Majesty the Emperor. Why do you still work hard for them?"

Major Rindo sighed: "The empire has been kind to me in nurturing me, and this kindness must be repaid. I can only follow my heart as much as possible, and fight to protect the empire without killing innocent people indiscriminately. But You are different from me, you don’t owe anything to the empire, you don’t need to be loyal to it, you are free, you should follow your own wishes to find the life you want most, the ruthless and decadent royal society is not suitable for you, you... "

Before he finished speaking, his gaze suddenly shifted to Han Chuyu's back, and he stood up respectfully.

Han Chuyu turned around and was startled, only to see someone walking into the restaurant leisurely from the outside, it was Duke Mephisto.

He walked up to Han Chuyu and smiled slightly at the two of them: "Chuyu, seeing that you haven't come back after going out for so long, I thought you were lost in the battleship."

Major Rinto said respectfully: "We met by chance in the living area, and we chatted casually for a while, I hope it won't cause trouble to you."

Duke Mephisto smiled: "Where is it, Chuyu is very shy and has never had contact with members of the royal family. I am afraid it will take a long time to adapt to our way of life. Secretary You Xieke is willing to talk to him, I am very happy, there are still a few days before I arrive in Jialan Gongdu, I will trouble you to take care of him while I am busy."

Major Lindu smiled: "It's an honor."

Duke Mephisto looked at Han Chuyu: "Chuyu, can you go back by yourself first? I have some things to do with the major, and I may come back later."

Major Rinto asked: "Is it about the interrogation of the arrested night vulture members?"

Duke Mephisto nodded: "I have other plans in Jialan Gongdu, and I will be very busy, so I hope this matter can be resolved before then."

Han Chuyu showed a thoughtful expression, Duke Mephisto turned to him, and asked gently: "Chuyu, do you want to go and see it too? I know you have always been interested in night vultures, but interrogation is nothing after all Pleasant things, you might not feel comfortable in that kind of scene."

Han Chuyu thought for a while and said, "Then I'll watch outside."

The three of them left the restaurant and went to the ground floor, where the prison and interrogation room were located in a secluded place away from the battleship facilities.The dark corridor was filled with dim lights, and the icy, rusty air was filled with a suffocating atmosphere.

The sound of the flesh being beaten by the whip, as well as the man's screams could be heard from a distance.Major Lindo and Duke Mephisto seemed to be accustomed to such things, talking about the situation of the arrested persons.

There are many mysteries about the night vultures, and the Xingyao Cruise Army strongly suspects that there are surviving first-generation rebels of the empire hidden among them.The information that needs to be known urgently is where their base is. At present, all warships can only chase them to the abandoned planetary belt in the Rose Star Field. Every time they get there, the night eagle will disappear without a trace. .

The guards at the gate immediately stood up straight and saluted when they saw Major Lindu and Duke Mephisto.Major Lindu pushed open the door, and a strong smell of blood mixed with a gust of heat rushed towards his face. A man was shackled on the wall of the house. He was dressed in rags and his naked body was dripping with blood. Two officers with whips stood in front of him. In front of him, the look looked anxious and tired.

Major Rinto asked, "How's the situation?"

One of the officers shook his head: "We have tried our best. We have used flogging, electrocution, and veritaserum. He refused to say anything. Nighthawk has very advanced anti-torture methods. These people's physical and mental resistance They are very capable, and it is not so easy to pry information out of their mouths."

Major Rinto thought for a while, and then asked, "Then what do you know now?"

The officer replied: "I only know that they went to Planet Jialun to rob energy according to Leixi's order. The weapons and personnel were arranged by Leixi. They just obeyed orders and didn't know anything else."

Major Lindu frowned: "It's Leixi again."

At this time, the man who was being tortured seemed to hear the voice, he opened his bloody and swollen eyelids with difficulty, and saw the Duke of Mephisto standing beside him in luxurious clothes, he spat at him viciously: "Go to hell!" Come on, dog emperor!"

The torture officer kicked him immediately: "Shut up!"

The hard military boots stepped on the man's chest, making the sound of ribs breaking. The man moaned in pain, and a trace of blood flowed from the corner of his mouth.

Duke Mephisto was not angry, he showed an expression of interest, and slowly walked in front of the man.

He asked softly: "In your organization, there are still first-generation species? Do they hate the empire?"

The other party said nothing.

Duke Mephisto smiled: "They must know a lot of things to train you civilians into such excellent fighting machines. However, although you have undergone rigorous training, haven't you seen this...?"

He looked at the man's right hand tenderly, and then, it seemed that an invisible force pinched the man's fingers and twisted them back.The knuckles crackled, bringing a piercing pain. The man looked at his fingers with disbelief, and there was a trace of fear in his eyes.

This is something he has never seen before, a power that even ordinary first-generation species do not possess.Just like destroying the oil storage tank in the warehouse of Planet Karen, Duke Mephisto can not only absorb the particle energy around him, but also actively control these energies, turning them into his invisible servants.

He asked softly: "Where is the base of the night vulture? Tell me well."
