The Iron Capital finally regained its tranquility at night, and although the nightlife of the nobles of the Upper City was not over, the peace of the night was very precious to the commoners living in the Lower City.

Barot, the head of the garrison, who was supposed to follow the steam police car out of the lower city and enter the Fengyue field of those nobles in the upper city, become the guest of some noble, or spend the night with some beautiful woman, returned to the lower city alone, and the slightly hurried pace showed that the noble-born and dignified security chief was in a hurry.

Passing through the neighborhoods and alleys of the lower town, I finally stepped into the alley where Murray and Saria had fallen and met Jack's group of riffraff.

Dressed in a white robe, Cottrow stood in the alley, looking as if he had been waiting for Barlow's concession for a long time.

Barot hurriedly stepped forward and knelt down on one knee to salute Cottero: "Teacher, I didn't expect you to come suddenly, the student is late." ”

Cortro turned around, looked at Barot, who was kneeling in front of him, especially the epaulettes on Balot's shoulders, and said with a smile: "Barot, my student, you really did not disappoint me. ”

Hearing his teacher's praise, Barot hurriedly responded: "These are all taught by the teacher, and the students just follow what the teacher teaches." ”

Cortro still admired the student in front of him, and from the first time he saw it, he saw the desire in the eyes of Barot, who was still a child at the time, and knew that this student would definitely achieve something.

Barot was born very well, and was the son of a duke in the empire, but unfortunately because he was a concubine, he could not have the inheritance of a duke.

Because he did not stay in his father's territory, but chose to leave the family alone to fight for a future with his own hands.

It's a pity that Barot at that time had a bold idea and didn't actually learn much from the duke's father.

It can be said that after some hardships, he almost died outside, and met Cortro at a critical moment.

To this day, Cortro will not forget the first time he saw the tormented Balot, a thin and almost tortured child, with a pair of blazing eyes that still reveal burning ambition.

The moment he saw those eyes, Cortro decided to help Barot and raise this ambitious little guy.

For Barot, perhaps the person he needs to thank the most in his life is Cotro, the white archbishop of the Holy See, who gave him assistance at the most critical time.

Barot, who was already desperate at the time, got a chance from Cortro, a chance to enter the Holy See Academy.

At that time, I almost didn't think much about it, and directly agreed to Cortro to participate in the most rigorous selection.

After going through many difficulties, Barot finally lived up to the opportunity given to him by Cortrow and successfully won a place in the Holy See Academy in 1/10,000.

After that, Barot rose to prominence, and soon became the best knight apprentice of the year in the Holy See Academy.

Then he entered the command of Cortro, and after being trained by Cortro, he became a real Knight of the Sun, and even won the Order of the Knight of the Sun.

But then came the second turning point in my life, and even now that I look back, I have never regretted this choice.

After Barot became a Templar, Cortro arranged two paths for him: one was to stay in the Holy See, and the other was to be relegated to the lord's domain in concealment.

If it is the majority of students of the Holy See Academy, they should choose the former and stay in the Holy See to obtain a distinguished status and orthodox status.

But at that time, Barot chose the second path almost without hesitation, and then he was sent to the Viscount of Lane, starting with the small military police in the garrison hall.

Cortro helped Barot up, looked at his students and sighed: "I didn't expect that in just five years, you will become the head of the security department. ”

Barot smiled shyly at this time: "This is all because the teacher taught me well, and it was also the teacher who gave me such an opportunity." ”

Cotro smiled and shook his head: "No, it's your own ability, from the first time I saw you, I knew you wouldn't disappoint me." ”

Still shyly smiled, and then Barot asked, "Teacher, you came to the Steel City specifically for that witch?"

Cortro nodded, and Furui Wubo said: "Yes, it was the witch who tracked her all the way here, and she had already found it, but unfortunately let her escape, and let your garrison give away a few lives in vain." ”

Barot was completely indifferent to the dead military police in the garrison department, but asked with some surprise: "Can't you catch that witch even teacher?"

Cortro smiled and shook his head and said, "It's not that I can't take her, it's just that I was calculated by that little girl." ”

There was not the slightest annoyance on Cortro's face, but he was a little pleased that he was being calculated by the witch, which made Barot secretly a little surprised.

However, Barot didn't dare to show it, and pretended to be nervous and asked, "Teacher, do you need me to help you find out the witch?"

Instead, he shook his head and said, "No, you don't need to, you have more important tasks ahead." ”

Hearing Cortro's words, Barot was a little confused, and he didn't quite understand why the teacher suddenly gave up on capturing the witch?

As if seeing Barot's doubts, Cotro smiled and explained: "You should know that now that the Sun Emperor has taken the initiative to cooperate with our Holy See, this time he wants to truly complete the unification of the entire West, and in exchange, we can also completely clean up those industrial parties in the empire, which is our focus now." ”

"Cleaning up the Industrial Party?" Barot was taken aback, "You mean, you want to get rid of Viscount Lane?"

Cottrow nodded and said, "Yes, Viscount Lane will be our first target, and both the royal family and the Holy See will attack him." ”

Barot finally understood: "No wonder, no wonder Viscount Ryan has been frequently mobilizing his troops and horses recently. ”

Cortro smiled confidently and said, "If he moves, let him move, and when he gathers all the strength at his disposal, we can catch him." ”

Barot suddenly calmed down, looked up at his teacher and asked, "Teacher, what do you need me to do next?"

Cortrow smiled and nodded, "You come with me first, and take a look at the little things I found in this alley." ”

Following behind Cortro, he walked to a pile of charred ash in the alley, which was charred but recognized at a glance as a human corpse.

Then he looked at Cortrow with some confusion, and some did not understand why his teacher wanted to let him see the coke.

Coltrow smiled and asked, "Have you noticed that there is no magic on this pile of coke, and the surrounding magical elements have not been touched?"

Hearing Cortro's question, he quickly squatted down to take a closer look, and found that it was really like what the teacher said, he couldn't feel any magic breath, and raised his head in surprise: "Teacher, what's going on with this?"
