Chapter 1094: Nightmare (Part 1)

The promenade of the Shadow Palace stretches like a gilded spine in a deep building complex. This palace used to be one of Diego's palaces, and is now the headquarters of Yeblade.
Its roof is transparent, and the light of distant stars illuminates the space below. Hundreds of statues stand on both sides of the promenade. An unknown hero in the history of the empire examines with gemstone eyes and a firm expression People passing below.
It is said that the standard of the night blade organization to measure a person's mood is that when walking in the promenade, he can look directly at those unrelenting eyes.
When Ushkin walked into the corridor, he raised his head high, although he understood that he was not a hero, but a warrior who did his best.
Those sacrificial night blades glared at him, their names and merits were not well known and respected by most Benedicts, and only those soldiers who also fought in the shadows would silently remember their merits.
In the moonlight, a figure stood in front of the statue of the Eve Blade leader who was sacrificed in Cusconar, and he turned around before Eushikin had approached.
"Marshal Yushkin."
Nutans said quietly.
"I rarely see you here."
"I'm not used to coming here, Nutans."
Yushkin stood still and looked up at the night blades sacrificed in the Cusconal incident.
"I always hope that the heroes can rest in peace."
"Now that is the case, what brought you here now?"
"If you allow, I want to talk to you."
"Presumably your time can be better spent on training soldiers and preparing for battle, that is where your talent lies."
"I am very honored to say this, but there is one thing I need to talk to you about."
"about what?"
Nutans' voice was not friendly, but instead became more rigid, and he seemed to guess the meaning of Eugene.
"That letter."
"what."
Nightblade leader looked up at the statue above them, and the empty eyes stared at them coldly and mercilessly.
"That's for you, I don't know anything."
"Your lies are clumsy, Nutans, everyone knows that you will never be without you around Diego."
"Marshal? You seem to be talking to one of your corporals."
"I saw those, sir."
Faced with the resistance of Nutans, Juskin seems not to relax, still pressing step by step,
"That sight, that's...I don't know...I have never heard of those beings..."
Nutans raised a hand, not intending to let Jushkin continue.
"I can understand why you doubt and ask, and I can answer, but I think I should show you something... follow me."
Yushkin followed Nutans along the promenade, then turned into a side passage, and the walls on both sides were nailed with paper.
Night Blade’s countless glorious deeds in the past years are recorded in detail, and army recruits need to remember that different battle before they can be upgraded to become the real Night Blade, the emperor’s night messenger.
"Do you know why I support your plan?"
On the way, Nutans suddenly asked.
"why?"
"Yes, Marshal, why."
"Because you know that I am right, my decision is the only way to ensure that we can survive, just to survive, not even win."
"say clearly."
"Oak has almost unlimited war potential, they have unlimited manpower, and there are no economic or political problems. Everything revolves around war. Passive adherence is only chronic death, and the speed of death is getting faster and faster."
Nutans nodded with a smile.
"Fine speaking, Marshal, it seems that I should arrange for you to teach those recruits, then you yourself, will you be desperate?"
There was a feeling of powerlessness in Eugene's heart, but he was used to hiding his emotions.
"If there is that opportunity, I will. I never thought I would be worthy of my role now. I am not a hero, and I never intended to be a hero."
"You are right, you are just a mortal, nothing more."
This near-offensive remark did not make Yushkin angry, and he did not even have any psychological fluctuations, because he had heard similar things elsewhere.
And he didn't think it was wrong.
"I didn't say it out of bad faith."
Nutans continued, not caring about the obvious insults in his words.
"People like you play an important role in the empire, but I am an apostle, the shadow prince chose me and elevated me to the current class...he saw me and found a leader in me The qualities that Yeblade needs, he sees you and sees you
Leading the army to command the quality of war, I understand the responsibilities of being a night blade, and you cannot understand it, marshal, this is our difference. "
As he was saying, Nutans led him to a secret door, then activated the mechanism, and then the secret door lowered, revealing a magnificent ladder, below which was a spacious hall paved with white marble.
Eugene is not surprised that the Shadow Palace still has such a secret space. If the headquarters of these assassins and spies have no secrets, it is abnormal.
"I think you overestimated me, Lord of Blades."
Eugene looked at the brightly lit hall below and whispered:
"But please understand that for everyone to survive, I must know—"
"We all made sacrifices for our right to survival,"
Nutans interrupted him sharply.
"For Yeblad, those sacrifices are even more serious. The most important thing is that everything has to give way to victory~EbookFREE.me~ I don’t understand, what does this have to do with the answers I need?"
"You will understand."
Nutans said, leading him through an arcade and into the main hall.
This underground research institute (let's call it that) is composed of shiny glass and steel, and more than ten separate laboratories diverge from the ring structure of the main hall.
When Eugene saw the broken body of Yeblade suspended in a water tank, floating like a dead fish, he felt a chill in his back.
Nutans led him through the laboratory and into a metal structured hall along a corridor. The huge stained glass filled the room, depicting many pictures of torture and twisted creatures, as well as black towers and skulls everywhere.
Seeing the creatures, Ushijin suddenly recalled the scenes he saw in the book, and he realized there was a connection between the two.
Suddenly he took a step back and felt a itch in his throat, then turned his head, but found that Nutans in front of him seemed to be gradually distorting..._
