Chapter 757: Interrogating the Pseudo-Type
Chapter 757: Interrogating the Pseudo-Type
Sterling Norwood lowered his head, seeing the confusion in Selena Kensington’s eyes, and explained, "This is Sean’s brother, Liam Norwood. He handles intelligence and interrogation matters and rarely makes an appearance."
Selena nodded.
No wonder she hadn’t seen Liam Norwood before.
It turned out to be because of his special status.
After Liam Norwood walked out and saw Sterling Norwood and Selena Kensington, he was slightly taken aback.
Then he walked over respectfully, "Family Head, Lady."
After greeting them, he continued, "The pseudo-entity has woken up, and it looks like it’s about to collapse."
As he said this, his face was heavy with concern.
"We used five times the normal amount of drugs, and it still only kept him calm for a few hours?"
Spencer Norwood’s expression was also not very good.
After all, he had anticipated that the sedatives would not have much effect on the pseudo-entity, but he didn’t expect the increased dosage to have such a short duration.
Sterling Norwood’s eyes darkened slightly, "Go get Sean over here, let’s go in first."
Spencer Norwood and Liam Norwood responded, "Yes."
Sterling Norwood lowered his head and said to Selena Kensington, "Why don’t you go to the front lounge and wait for me a while?"
Selena shook her head slightly, "I’ll wait for you here."
Sterling Norwood glanced around the environment and no longer asked Selena to go to the front lounge, but instructed Spencer Norwood, "Bring over a chair."
"Okay."
Then, Sterling Norwood took Liam Norwood and Spencer Norwood into the interrogation room.
Selena Kensington also sat down at the entrance of the interrogation room after Hope Norwood brought the chair.
Just around there were several lush trees, so Selena was not worried about the sunlight reaching her.
After Hope Norwood brought the chair, she stayed by her side guarding.
"Ah Hope."
After lingering alone for a while, Selena Kensington got a bit bored, so she called out Hope Norwood’s name.
Hope Norwood lowered her gaze, looking at Selena, "Does the lady have any instructions?"
"Did you participate in the action to capture that pseudo-entity?"
Hope Norwood nodded slightly, "Participated in the final capture, the previous tracing actions were handled by other groups."
In the Norwood Family’s Hidden Guard, everyone excelled in different areas, each having their own duties.
For example, Hope Norwood handled protection and assassination.
Selena Kensington nodded slightly, "Then what is that pseudo-entity like?"
Hope Norwood frowned slightly, thought carefully, and then replied to Selena.
"He appears to be a burly man from outside, but when his mental state collapsed, his muscles seemed as hard as steel, ordinary bullets couldn’t penetrate. In the end, it was the Family Head who arrived and subdued him with one strike."
Selena Kensington’s eyes widened slightly.
Was this pseudo-entity an enhanced type?
However... Selena recalled when Sterling Norwood demonstrated his abilities in front of her, effortlessly knocking down a giant tree with terrifying strength. The pseudo-entity was ultimately a defective, couldn’t rival Sterling.
"Wait, from beyond?"
"...Seems like the Godsbane Organization isn’t sparing anyone from outside either."
Selena sighed.
Because all the pseudo-entities Selena Kensington had seen were people from The Empire.
Plus, the Godsbane Organization first surfaced in Aethelgard.
So Selena assumed the pseudo-entities of Godsbane were all Imperials.
Never expected, even outsiders were included in their experiments.
Kull... how many have they harmed?
Selena sighed lightly.
By her side, Hope Norwood sensitively picked up on a trace of loss in Selena’s demeanor.
Her eyes were a bit puzzled, unsure of what she had said wrong to upset Selena.
So she awkwardly tried to console her, "Lady, don’t worry, that pseudo-entity can’t harm you and the baby."
Selena Kensington puzzledly raised her head, not understanding why Hope suddenly said that.
But when she saw the anxiety and confusion in Hope’s eyes, she understood.
She smiled, "I know, thank you."
"You’re welcome."
Hope Norwood’s mouth formed a slight arc.
Selena Kensington was outside for just half an hour when Sterling Norwood came out.
When Selena looked over, she noticed the faint red in Sterling Norwood’s eyes that hadn’t completely faded.
She immediately looked at him inquisitively, then stood up and walked over.
She leaned in to sniff around Sterling Norwood.
Sterling Norwood was stunned by her sudden action, but his body relaxed.
Due to her gesture, the redness in his eyes vanished completely.
After sniffing for a while, Selena raised her head, "Did you make a move? Why is there a subtle scent of blood...?"
"..."
Since when did his wife have such a keen sense of smell?
Sterling Norwood wrapped his arm around Selena’s waist, "It’s not me who made the move."
How could Sterling Norwood possibly make a move over a lowly pseudo-entity?
After all, these hands were meant to hold his precious wife.
Listening to Sterling’s words made Selena’s expression relax.
"Is the pseudo-entity behaving now?"
Sterling Norwood nodded slightly, "Mm, I’ll take you in."
"Alright."
Then, Sterling took Selena inside.
When they walked in, Sean, Liam, and Spencer Norwood stood inside the interrogation room.
And through a layer of glass, a burly man sat.
At the moment, the man had a slightly blank expression, apart from that, there were no peculiarities.
Selena Kensington looked inquisitively at the pseudo-entity again.
Wasn’t there supposed to be a fight?
Why does the pseudo-entity look unharmed?
Sterling Norwood had been observing the situation, noticing her lack of aversion, he relaxed slightly.
What Selena didn’t know was Sterling Norwood feared Selena would enter to see the bruised pseudo-entity and feel nauseated and repulsed, so he instructed Liam to use interrogation methods that were troublesome but left no visible marks.
Thus, Selena was able to see a pseudo-entity that appeared normal on the surface.
As they entered, the three inside ceased their conversation.
Sterling Norwood led Selena to the sofa and gestured with his chin.
"Explain to her."
Given his wife’s curiosity, Sterling Norwood naturally indulged her.
Liam, following Sterling’s orders, explained solemnly, "This person is from The D-Nation, visiting The Empire as a tourist. His ability is defense amplification. When activated, except for the relatively vulnerable head, the rest of his body is like steel."
"We noticed him because he brought some mental drugs to Aethelgard, which are prohibited in The Empire."
"Initially, the security bureau just wanted to reclaim the contraband, but he escaped. Later, the bureau reported to The Celestial Division, and then we found out and began tracing."
