After receiving Joseph from the department, Austin went on a trip to the logistics department. His residence was not in the barracks, it was relatively close to the teaching ground of the Cleansing Operations Department, more like the residence of ordinary nobles, and it was obvious that the local forces did not want him to interfere in the established plan of action.

Thinking of Von Lantlin's order, Austin was naturally okay with such a peace, and if the local forces in Beiwang City needed him to do something, he would also move Von Lantlin's order out to explain that he would even offend someone.

A two-story house housed Austin, his adjutants, and his retinue, and the rest of the men were left to live in the dormitory of the Inquisition in North Lookout, not far from Austin's residence.

Not letting Austin have too much contact with the army is already a kind of exclusion, and if he separates the soldiers he brought with him, it will easily cause unnecessary misunderstandings. Brunei and Blaze Bear insisted on living in dormitories as well, preferring to stay with their warriors rather than in a large and comfortable house.

Quirav and Davix had been left in his apartment to discuss the experiences of the past few days, he now needed a group who could see the situation to plan for him how to behave in the future, the panther would have been well suited to this task, but there were some things that it was better not to let von Lantlin's old subordinates hear.

Three Blackwings were sent out by him to roam the city, with a warrant that would allow them to handle most of the interrogations.

After everything was settled, Austin finally breathed a sigh of relief. Without Johnny, I didn't know how complicated these things were.

The news about Johnny and the survivors of Cold River City is naturally to keep inquiring, but now is not the time to be sad, Austin carefully analyzed Joseph's words, and his face was gloomy as if he could usher in a storm at any time.

Several people gathered in the living room, and their ideas were pieced together, which basically restored the psychology of the high-level.

The loss of Cold River City is a foregone conclusion, and no matter how he takes it back in the future, he will lose it in Austin's hands. As the person in charge, Austin thought that he would be reprimanded, even if it was only on the surface, but nothing happened, and even von Lantrin praised him verbally, indicating that the high-level did not care about the gains and losses of Hanjiang City.

The Beiban used Hanjiang City to cover up their intention to attack Beiwang City, and the high-level officials used Hanjiang City to confuse their opponents, making them think that their energy was still in the rear, and the gathering of materials and troops was only to support Hanjiang City and some simple defenses in the north.

As for Austin and the others being sent to the north, it should be the result of the game between the military department and the upper echelons of the inquisition, and the loss of Hanjiang City is almost an established fact, but this pot always needs someone to carry it. The high-level of Hanjiang City asked for help just to dump the pot on Apocalypse City, and the high-level officials of Apocalypse City began to kick the ball again, and finally fell on Feng Lantrin's head, or the Inquisition still took over the matter.

It's just that the Inquisition Rhine offered to go to the north as a chaplain with the army, which was not expected by the higher-ups. If you want to be held accountable afterwards, Rhine, as the highest-ranking person, according to wartime regulations, even if he is not the supreme commander, must bear most of the responsibility, but according to the status of Rhine's veteran candidate, he does not buy the accounts of those officials and masters, and in the end, the loss of Hanjiang City will be over.

Austin and the others thought about the relationship clearly, and they were not very comfortable, he was equivalent to saying that Von Lantrin threw out the chess pieces to bear the turmoil and was forced to be pushed to the forefront.

With the wisdom of the nobility he had before he became a mob, Quirav asked the question: "Why did Rhine take the initiative to help you? He should be able to figure out the key to this, and he will take most of the responsibility when he comes, and I don't believe that if he doesn't want to come, anyone will be able to force him." ”

Although he did not follow Austin for too long, he was still familiar with the upper class of the Bolton dynasty, in which the name of Rhine frequently appeared in his field of vision, and he was connected to many aspects, and did not seem to take sides among the various forces, but he could show a certain intimacy.

Such a character is by no means a pastor who only knows how to fight and praise the Father, let alone a person who will help Austin block the sword for a few so-called comradeship, and I don't know how many people with other intentions will be offended by such behavior.

However, Quirav's question Austin was equally unanswerable, shrugged his shoulders and said, "Maybe God told him that he should protect me, who knows what good luck I can bring him?"

Quirav nodded, and understood the dissatisfaction in Austin's words, he must have brought some opportunity to Rhine, it may be that Von Lantrin promised him something, or it may be that other forces want to befriend Von Lantrin through him, in short, it will definitely not be his own value that can make Rhine happy.

Just as Quiraf was about to say something more, there was a knock on the door. Quiraf went to open the door, and the three black-clad men flashed in, and took a closer look behind them to make sure no one was following.

Austin cast his gaze with interest, Black Wing One, they themselves called themselves one, two, three, said that they should not have a name, stretched out his hand, revealing a piece of blue jade, and said, "My lord, look at this, I think it will be useful to you." ”

Hanyu!

Austin was a little surprised, the blue flame had become his weapon in battle, and as his power increased, this ability was revealed.

Blue Jade can bring Hanyu an evolution that is close to metamorphosis, and even he doesn't know what will be formed in the end. He came to the Northland not long after reaching an agreement with the caravan of the Fengya tribe, and it is said that the source of goods is in Hanjiang City, but in this case, it is estimated that the caravan will definitely not be able to get anything. Originally, she was no longer hopeful about this line, but she didn't expect to see this again in Beiwang City.

At the same time, whether this ability has anything to do with the Northern Barbarians, Austin feels that this trip to the North is also an opportunity to find out.

Seeing Black Wing's thief-like demeanor, Austin was angry and funny, and said, "Okay, it's not an unsightly thing." Where did the stuff come from?"

As he spoke, he took the cold jade and looked at it carefully. The palm-sized blue stone was crystal clear in the light, and several dark blue lines intertwined and stranded into bundles, like twisted and coiled vines. It's just that there are some extremely fine black spots, which are fine particles of rock, and the quality of the jade has been reduced a lot.

Black Wing replied: "There are people selling in the black market, and there are also regular jewelry stores, but there are few goods and they have all been polished and carved, and the price is on the expensive side. A blue jade like this in the blackstone—you like to call it—a few dozen silver coins can be exchanged for a very good quality piece, and as for a waste stone that contains only a small amount of jade or is difficult to cut, ten silver coins can give you a lot. ”

Austin's face suddenly became a little strange, Black Wing didn't have any money on him, even Austin and Davix only had a dozen silver coins and two ten-gold coin checks on their bodies, and most of the things were in the camp in Cold River City, so it was naturally impossible to take them out.

"How did you buy things, don't tell me what bad things you used!"

"Of course not, I showed the warrant of the Inquisition's Operations Department, and they didn't know the difference between it and the Beiwangcheng branch anyway. ”

"By the way, the other party wanted to say something, but when No. 1 took out the warrant, he accidentally dropped the dagger on the ground, and I don't know why the other party took the initiative to send a piece. Originally, they wanted to send something more, but I thought that I couldn't cheat businessmen in this kind of wartime, and it was not easy for everyone, so I didn't ask for it. Black Wing II suddenly interjected.

The corners of Austin's mouth twitched, and Davix couldn't help but laugh softly. Sure enough, although the dagger was painted black, the complex lines on it were not something that ordinary people could have, and it was Austin who begged Von Lantrin for a long time before throwing it to him.

If such a thing is displayed, the other party must mistakenly think that they are some kind of military bigwigs, and it is best to use something to get rid of them, and no one wants to offend the soldiers during this period. But what is the difference between such a method and open robbery? It is a shame that they are still justifiable.
