That night, Jasont stayed up all night in the dungeon. His eyes were bloodshot and he stared at Faceless Men in front of him.

In order to obtain more information from this mysterious man, Jasont did everything possible, and he used all kinds of cruel methods on Faceless Men.

Jasont used all the torture methods he could think of on Faceless Men without mercy. He had only one purpose, which was to make Faceless Men succumb to the extreme pain and reveal the truth.

However, Faceless Men is extremely stubborn. No matter how tortures him, he grits his teeth and refuses to reveal any useful information.

In order to prevent Faceless Men from dying prematurely, also treated his wounds roughly several times, leaving him hovering on the edge of life and death.

This kind of pain was simply worse than death. Faceless Men was on the verge of collapse under the torture of Jetson.

Early the next morning, the sun shone through the dungeon window on Jetson's tired face.

He steeled himself and hurried to Redd's room, preparing to report to him the results of last night's interrogation.

Redd was enjoying breakfast leisurely. When he saw Jason coming in a hurry, he had already guessed it.

"How is it? Did you get anything from last night?" Redd put down the tableware in his hands and looked at Jasont and asked.

Jason took a breath, collected himself, and then told Redd everything about last night's interrogation.

It turned out that Faceless Men finally couldn't bear the torture from Jason last night and confessed that they had indeed received the task of assassinating Redd, but as the executors, they did not know who their employer was. Only the superior who assigned the task knew it.

"Then how did they receive the mission?" Redd asked.

"According to Faceless Men, they received the mission through an intermediary. This intermediary was only responsible for transmitting mission information and knew nothing about anything else," Jasont replied.

"Is there any other useful information?" Redd continued to ask.

"Yes, Faceless Men said that there is another Faceless Men still on the island, who may be responsible for responding to them." Jasont added.

"I had people blockade the port at midnight last night, prohibiting anyone from entering or exiting." Jasont continued, "In this way, that Faceless Men will have no way to escape."

After hearing this, Redd raised the corners of his mouth slightly, showing a satisfied smile.

He wiped the corners of his mouth gently, and then asked casually, "Is that guy in the dungeon still alive?"

Jason stood aside and replied respectfully, "Sir, that guy can still breathe."

"Very good," Redd's voice revealed a hint of coldness, "Tug him to the port and hang him up.

Let him live soberly in pain and experience what it means to live worse than death."

Jason quickly bent down and saluted, indicating that he accepted the order, "I understand and will do it immediately."

After Jasont left, Redd slowly stood up and walked steadily towards the black bugs that the attendants brought back last night.

In the wooden barrel, densely packed insects were squirming constantly, as if telling their hunger and desire.

When Redd opened the lid of the wooden barrel, these little bugs seemed to feel the stimulation of the light, and suddenly became frightened and squirmed crazily, trying to avoid the light.

At the same time, it was also discovered that once they have food to eat, they will reproduce rapidly and their numbers will increase exponentially.

However, when there is no food, they will eat each other without mercy.

Last night, Redd had someone feed a dead chicken to these bugs. As a result, this morning, the chicken had disappeared without a trace, and these bugs were busy cannibalizing their own kind. The scene was extremely tragic.

Redd stared at these black bugs and thought to himself, "These bugs are by no means simple. Their way of survival is so cruel and efficient, they must have some special ability or purpose."

He carefully collected the bugs into the pet space, full of curiosity and expectation.

What is the origin of these bugs? What special abilities does it have?

With these questions, he couldn't wait to check the detailed information about this bug through the system.

Sure enough, the system did not disappoint him, and soon generated a brand new panel, which clearly displayed the relevant information of this bug:

- Name: Dark Night of Sorrow

- Race: Magic cursed creature

- Detailed introduction: This is a very special creature. It can only be parasitic or grow in a dark environment and feed on flesh and blood.

This creature is very sensitive to sunlight, and prolonged exposure to sunlight will cause its death.

In addition, it is extremely afraid of fire. Once it comes into contact with fire, it will be burned to ashes immediately.

Seeing this information, Redd couldn't help but feel a little surprised.

He originally thought that Faceless Men was just a group of assassins who were good at disguise, poisoning, or pretending to be close people to carry out sneak attacks.

But now it seems that they still have some unknown secret weapons, such as this Nightmare.

Recalling his previous poisoning experience, Redd felt more and more that it was probably Faceless Men's masterpiece.

But now, after the poison had expired, they actually came up with such a powerful magical cursed creature, which really surprised him.

Redd was thinking in his mind, since this Dark Night Sorrow is so special, he wonders if he can use the system to tame them?

So, he tried to give some simple instructions to the bug. However, to his disappointment, these bugs seemed to have no intelligence at all. They would only act according to their own instincts and could not distinguish between ourselves and the enemy at all.

Faced with such a situation, Redd immediately lost interest in this Nightmare.

He thought the bug was really disgusting. Not only did it look ugly, but its behavior was also unacceptable.

However, considering that this bug might be useful in some specific situations, Redd finally decided to seal it in the pet space for emergencies.

He was about to step out of the gate of Dragonstone Castle and go to Dragonpit to check the status of the three dragons - originally he planned to let Cannibal and Sheepstealer out for some exercise, while Grey Ghost would continue to be locked in Dragonpit.

However, before he actually left Dragonstone Castle, a raven flew down in front of him instead of usual, bringing a letter.

Redd opened the envelope and found that the letter was actually written by the new king Viserys.

The content of the letter was very concise, just asking him to go to King's Landing as soon as possible.

Redd After reading the letter, I was thinking to myself.

He decided to put this letter aside for a few days. After all, he didn't want to attend Jaehaerys's funeral, and he had already thought of a ready-made excuse:
