Chapter 522

Imperial capital, a street somewhere.

The cold spring rain is still falling, making the mottled walls on both sides look old; There was no shadow in the empty street, only the bleak echo of the cold wind passing by my ears.

It looks like an abandoned street, no different from the gutter lane of eboden or the slum of the town.

The dark haired wizard silently followed the night watchman and kept looking around.

On both sides of the narrow street are dilapidated houses, and at the foot are muddy paths; Judging from the extent of damage to the streets, it has been at least ten years.

Loren said in his heart.

A night watchman representing the emperor's eyeliner and poison blade. What will their headquarters look like?

The walls are high, the sentinel stands, the eyeliner is densely covered, five steps and one defense, ten steps and one whistle... Wire mesh, iron railings, wizard towers, dungeons, gallows, whips, shackles, cross locks, iron shackles, iron nail beds, iron virgins... Cough and cough.

It may also be like Eboden's night watchman's base... Sewer, prison, weapons rack, test stand, all kinds of intelligence, all kinds of Eyeliner... In short, underground fortress, but it must be more rigorous and more secretive than that of E.

But whatever it is, it will never be the one in front of us.

The exquisite three-story clock tower, the stone path in front of the door, and the beautiful flower beds on both sides... It seems that people often take care of it.

"Here we are. This is the headquarters of the night watchman."

"You must be joking?"

"No, I'm serious. It's here."

"..." Loren Turin.

As the voice fell, the indifferent night watchman came forward and opened the door; The black haired wizard who followed did not forget to look carefully at the furnishings in the tower.

A little old Candlestick, a little yellow carpet and walls, a few tables and chairs, plus a fireplace... Nothing to surprise, just an ordinary living room.

How to say, uh... It's a little unexpected.

"Have a drink first."

Seeing that the dark haired wizard had sat down, the indifferent Edward skillfully went to the fireplace wine shelf, poured two glasses of ale, stuffed one of them into Lauren's hand, and brought a plate of fruit and blueberry pudding.

"The drinks here are not very good, but the food is very fresh... They all come from the Royal Manor outside the imperial capital. Originally, they only served the things of the heavenly palace."

"It's still early today... If it's later, there will be special people responsible for transporting fresh fruits, vegetables and meat."

“……”

Looking at the sparkling drink in his hands, the confused black haired wizard looked at Edward opposite. The indifferent night watchman turned a blind eye, picked up the knife and skillfully enjoyed the blueberry pudding on the table.

Just before Loren could react, Edward was very skilled in getting dry firewood to light the fireplace. Above the warm light, there was a soup pot that seemed to have been prepared for stewing potatoes, onions and beef.

For a quarter of an hour, the two finished a plate of fruit, half a blueberry pudding, and three glasses of ale - maybe another bowl of stew if the soup pot was not still on the stove.

If this is a cartoon, there must be a huge question mark on Lauren's head.

I am now sitting in the most dangerous, terrible and secret place of the whole empire.

In the notorious night watchman headquarters

Sitting in front of the warm fireplace, drinking ale and eating blueberry pudding

Am I crazy or are they crazy?

Bored playing with the fork in his hand, Loren had a ironic sneer on his mouth; From entering the door to now, the night watchman who has never opened his mouth to tell the truth has actually revealed a lot of information.

Remote but undisguised night watchman headquarters;

A place where the tribute of the Royal Manor can be obtained directly;

Empty tower with soup pot;

There is also an unusual night watchman who has become no longer indifferent

All kinds of abnormal signs are almost like a Book spread out in front of the dark haired wizard, on which the secret that people in front of them want to hide is written unreservedly; But Loren had no interest in peeling the cocoon, nor did he bother to guess what Edward wanted to do.

He's waiting, waiting for this guy to speak.

After finishing the last blueberry pudding, the indifferent night watchman slowly looked up, and his cold eyes seemed to be able to see everything:

"You seem a little abnormal today."

"No, the abnormal person is you."

"Yes, but you never spoke." Edward's expression moved slightly: "before, you had forced me to explain all this clearly."

The black haired wizard shrugged his shoulders and slightly raised the corners of his mouth: "because I have figured out two things... First, Edward of eboden is the most qualified night watchman, but he will not easily work for Rut infinite."

There was a flash of amazement in the night watchman's eyes, and he understood Loren's moral for a moment.

LUT infinit... Is not the night watchman.

"Second, seram kovo is just your excuse. He is not in your hands now... In other words, he is not under the control of the night watchman."

For a moment, Edward's pupils shrank suddenly; The dark haired wizard smiled.

Until this moment, he finally understood.

Put yourself in your shoes and think about what you would do if seram kovo was in your own hands?

It's simple. There's nothing to do.

Edward knows himself very well... Yes, he cares about this wizard apprentice, but it's not enough to threaten himself... Lusaka kovo is dead, and the Royal wizard academy has won the pre imperial trial.

In other words, the value of seram kovo no longer exists, just an apprentice who has lost the possibility of becoming a wizard... This statement is very inhumane, but it is the coldest reality.

That's why... Edward deliberately said "blackmail" with seram kovo. Instead, he was telling himself that the night watchman at present had not been able to threaten his capital, and even dared not do anything about himself for the time being.

If so, then his purpose of staying here... Is very worth pondering.

The surprised night watchman seemed very nervous, and his right hand holding the knife never put down; Just a minute later, the indifferent Edward pulled the corners of his mouth and threw the knife on the table.

What's the matter with yourself?

This guy is Loren Turin... The guy who can survive in the hands of evil gods, cross the glacial wasteland and still be intact in front of thousands of demons.

It's hard to say, but... I'm really not his opponent. Even if I want to leave this guy here, I'm very reluctant.

"They are ready to do it."

Edward picked the corner of his mouth rigidly and said very dry.

"Hmm?" the black haired wizard was stunned.

"The night watchman in the imperial capital has begun to notice that I was secretly helping you." the night watchman's voice was a little bitter and sighed heavily.

"So fast?" Lauren frowned slightly.

"Not only this time, but also before..." Edward said faintly: "in addition, there is a recent one."

"Recently?"

"Do you really think... The night watchman and the church don't know that there is conclusive evidence in Lusaka's laboratory? That's a trap... Waiting for you to jump in."

Edward's expression here was also a little different: "there were eight imperial night watchmen, all of whom were the most elite spies, who were responsible for ambushing ain Rand and Lucian - even I didn't get information in advance. Maybe they began to suspect me at that time?"

"But as a result... The bones of eight people didn't exist!"

"The blood is drained, and none of the bones of the whole body is intact. It's like being forcibly crushed... It's an unheard of way to die!"

Lauren's expression stiffened slightly.

Beat the bone and squeeze the marrow

What is difficult is

"Well... Maybe you don't know what's going on with this expression." Edward nodded slightly and sighed, "anyway, because I've become a key suspect in this matter, they may have to do it next!"

"That's what... Ruth infinite means?"

"Probably not, but at least he acquiesced." Edward's eyes were dim and his voice hoarse:

"Lauren, their goal is you!"
