I’m sure no one can refuse to talk.” No matter how strong one’s willpower was, one couldn’t resist for long.“Yes.”He had spent a lot to build this dungeon, so it was undeniably effective.After their tour ended, Felix had already pried the information from the mercenaries’ lips.“Mr. Tristan, the Zaleses sent them, just like last time in Horington,” Felix reported.The Zaleses had always been jealous of the Lombards and had been trying to wipe them out in secret.“Clayton Zales.” Tristan’s guess was right.The only person who dared to pull this feat in Jipsdale could only be Clayton.“Mr. Tristan, what should we do about them?” Felix asked, for there were over ten mercenaries here.“Hand them to Eustace.
