Strictly following all {} protection rules:

Strictly speaking, a fiefdom like Gale Rift Valley shouldn’t need such an elite secret service. But there’s no choice—after all, Gale Rift City sits in the eye of the storm. Who knows how many empires, how many factions have spies lurking here.

Decades of counter-espionage have made the Black Blood Hall especially formidable, and their methods are extremely cruel.

For foreign spies, falling into the hands of the Black Blood Hall—death is already the best outcome.

“You’ve heard of our reputation and methods. Everyone who falls into our hands wishes they could die immediately, just to escape endless torment,” the woman rasped. “Of the three great southern powers, I’ve dealt with agents from every country, and your Black Dragon Platform is the most unyielding. Many Black Dragon Platform agents have died by my hand, but not a single one has ever betrayed their secrets.”

The red-hot branding iron drew closer and closer to Gavin Clark.

The female leader rasped, “Personally, I admire your courage. But if you don’t confess today, don’t even think about leaving here alive—there won’t be an inch of unscathed flesh left on your body, and in the end, you’ll be torn apart by ten wolfhounds.”

With a sudden wave of her hand, ten pairs of green, glowing eyes appeared in the darkness. They were clearly dogs, but looked like wolves, and a bloody stench filled the entire underground chamber.

At a single command, these ten wolfhounds would tear Gavin Clark to pieces.

“I know you Black Dragon Platform agents are not afraid of death. I’ve never pried a single secret from their mouths, but today I want to try. I’ve prepared over a hundred torture devices, and I have a few days to spend here—I’ve got over a hundred methods ready!” the female leader said. “A-Gou, begin…”

Immediately, another warrior produced a barbed whip and was about to lash it at Gavin Clark.

“Stop…” Gavin Clark shouted loudly, “I’ll confess, I’ll confess…”

“My name is Gavin Clark, I am a Black Dragon Platform agent of the Great Win Empire.”

“I came to the Anting Inn for a rendezvous. My contact is Andrew Foster, he’s also an undercover agent for the Black Dragon Platform.”

“My superior is Felix Newman. He is the chief commander of operations in Gale Rift City.”

“My mission is to come to Gale Rift City and seduce your city lord Julian Wells, to make her the Great Win Kingdom’s proxy in the No Man’s Land.”

“There’s also a mute who came with me, he’s right outside, he’s also a Black Dragon Platform agent. Hurry and catch him, don’t let him get away…”

At once, everyone was stunned.

The air fell into an even more awkward silence.

I… I haven’t even started the interrogation, haven’t even begun the torture, and you… you’ve confessed everything.

Aren’t all Black Dragon Platform agents supposed to be tough as nails?

Gavin Clark said, “I have more to confess, I have more to confess, but I can’t remember it all at once. Maybe you could remind me—did I miss anything in my confession? I’ll handle the betraying, you handle checking for omissions, and together we’ll make today’s work perfect, what do you say, miss…”

The scene remained silent.

Gavin Clark said, “Black Dragon Platform gave me two plans to conquer Julian Wells. But both plans are with Andrew Foster. Have you caught him yet? Use torture, heavy torture—I don’t believe he won’t confess. If he really won’t, I can help too.”

Still, no one answered him.

Gavin Clark said, “Miss, don’t be fooled by how frail and old I look now. In reality, I’m a one-in-a-billion top-tier handsome man. Black Blood Hall needs talent like me the most. My specialty is seducing women. That’s very useful for our counter-espionage work, and bringing a handsome man like me along would give you face, too.”

“Miss, don’t kill me, and don’t harm my unparalleled good looks. From now on, I’ll be your little wolfdog, awooo…”

“What, you don’t like wolfdogs, you like puppies? No problem, woof woof woof woof…”

The five people present looked at each other, speechless, only able to exchange their inner shock.

I… what the hell!

This is world-shattering, life-view-upending.

After more than a decade in the spy business, I’ve never seen an agent so afraid of death, so shameless.

How… how did you get into the Black Dragon Platform?

“Miss, what’s your name? A woman with a devilish figure like yours must have a name that makes people’s souls tremble just hearing it, right?” Gavin Clark said. “Turn around, I really want to know—what kind of peerless beauty could match such a devilish figure? It’s too bewitching. From now on, I’ll never be able to sleep, because every time I close my eyes, all I see is you.”

The other party still didn’t speak, her back to Gavin Clark, but her body began to tremble.

“Miss, what’s your name? Turn around!” Gavin Clark continued.

Suddenly, the woman turned around, finally revealing her true face.

So… terrifying!

Her face was covered in twisted scars, like a vengeful ghost.

Truly… a devil’s figure… a devil’s face.

Gavin Clark’s mouth dropped open and couldn’t close.

Then the woman said calmly, “My name is Anthony Foster…”
