Chapter 3 Jagged Guard(2/2)

A capable middle-aged man pushed the door open and came to him.

"Have you found out?"

"Return to Master, I'll find out." Ruth responded in a deep voice, "In addition to Miss, there were Aris from the Field family, Mark from the Wood family, Du Wei from the Winston family, and four other servants, a total of seven. When Master Arthur was injured, the lady and Aris were in the store, and they might not know."

"Don't make excuses for her!" Megan snorted coldly, "What's the situation now for the young master?"

"Mark is dead, and the young master was arrested by the Police Department for murder and was detained in the First Prison. The injuries on his face have been cured, so there should be no big problem. Just--"

"Just what?" Megan frowned.

"They are very serious. The young master's appearance may be ruined!" Ruth said.

"A bunch of damn beasts!" Megan gritted her teeth.

After waiting for him to calm down, Ruth asked, "Master, what should I do next?"

Megan pondered for a moment and said, "Send people to keep an eye on the prison to prevent anyone from taking action. You personally go to the Supervisory Office leader Luo Lin's mansion and say I want to see him. This place is not the Far East after all, and the Police Department is under his jurisdiction, so he still has to come forward for some things."

——

Patna City, the Stock family.

Thunder Cloud stood in front of the window with his hands behind his back, staring at a big tree in the garden in a daze. It was planted with joy thirty-five years ago on the day his youngest son, Langton Stock, was born.

Behind him, more than a dozen warriors wearing crystal armor stood quietly, leading a middle-aged man in his forties.

"Old Tai, are you forcing me?" After a long time, Lei Yun slowly turned around, stared at the leading knight, and asked with a deep face.

"Class leader, my subordinates dare not!" The middle-aged man knelt on one knee and responded respectfully. The other dozen knights also knelt down.

Lei Yun angrily scolded: "It seems that you all still remember that you are the knights of the Stock family!"

Lao Tai looked up at Lei Yun, and a ray of pride appeared on his face. He said loudly: "We have not forgotten that we are the knights of the family, but we have not forgotten that we have a loud name - Iron Blood Guard!"

When Lei Yun heard this, his body trembled.

Iron Blood Guard—

What a distant and familiar name! Although time has covered that desolate past, its name is forever engraved in the hearts of these veterans.

After a long time, Lei Yun slowly said: "Have you ever thought about the interests of the family when you do this? Is it worth it for him?"

Lao Tai said in a voice: "Iron Blood Weisu serves the Lord with loyalty. For the sake of the young master, I am willing to shed the last drop of blood!"

"For the sake of the young master, we are willing to shed the last drop of blood!" the knights said in unison.

Lei Yun suddenly felt extremely physically and mentally exhausted, and said coldly, "I have already said that anyone in the clan dares to interfere in this matter, will be removed from the genealogy! You must think clearly!"

"Fifteen years ago, the lord challenged the 100,000 army of the demon clan alone and died in a fierce battle. The Iron Blood Guard fought to the death to save the master. No one survived after the bloody battle. We survived to this day in order to protect the young master and let the lord sleep!"

After Lao Tai finished speaking, he stood up and took off the golden rose badge representing the Stock family from his chest.

"The young master is in trouble, please take care of the patriarch!" He solemnly placed the badge on the table, bowed deeply to Lei Yun, and then turned around and strode away.

"Captain, take care of the patriarch!"

"Captain, take care of the patriarch!"

The knights took off their badges, saluted to Thunder Cloud, and followed Lao Tai immediately after him.

"Since God will let these iron blood guards stay because of him, let them go with him!" Lei Yun looked at the backs of the knights and sighed in his heart.

——

Patna City, the head of the Federal Supervision Office.

Luo Lin was buried in the sofa, his face covered with clouds. An exquisite quill was spinning slowly between his fingers.

A small piece can always stir up a big change in the chess game. On the afternoon when Arthur was arrested, the chess game in Patna was in chaos, and an invisible pressure made him worried.

Meghan, the commander of the Far East Army, asked him to meet and conveyed a meaning: Arthur's case should be handled impartially without taking care of his face.

The families where Mark and three other nobles came together to seek a visit and expressed the same meaning: deal with the deceased with justice and give justice to the deceased.

Obviously, the same statement has a completely opposite meaning in its core.

The Stoke family, one of the four major families of the Federal Senate, remained silent about this matter. This cold-eyed and observing attitude put great pressure on him. Although Lei Yun, the patriarch of the Stoke family, had severed relations with Arthur fifteen years ago and expelled him from the family, Arthur was still his own grandson after all, and beating a dog depends on the owner.

Of course, if Arthur was just the son-in-law of Meghan and the grandson abandoned by Lei Yun, he would not feel a headache. To deal with the contradictions in the aristocratic circle, you only need to maintain a delicate balance, take advantage of the big fists, and suffer a little fists, and turn big things into small things.

What he really had a headache was that Arthur was also Langton's son. This powerful general, former commander of the Federation's three armies, is still guilty of disobedience and treason. And he, Rollin, was once one of the five famous Far East tigers under Langton's command, and many people were waiting to see his performance.

"I'm dancing on the edge of the cliff!" Thinking of this, Luo Lin couldn't help but sigh.

"Report!" The adjutant's voice came from outside the door, very anxious.

"Come in!" Luo Lin sat upright.

The adjutant pushed the door and saluted him: "Report to the commander, the prisoner Arthur is missing!"

With a crisp "bang", the quill in Luolin's hand was broken into two pieces.

——

night.

In the storm, a carriage galloped on the official road between the mountains of Tbilisi.

"What the hell is the weather!" Kerman, who was sitting in front of the carriage, spit out the rain that was pouring into his mouth, wiped his face and muttered in a low voice.

As a prison guard at the First Prison, the capital of Tianmeng Federation, he found an errand with extremely high returns and great risks after retirement.

Some of the people in prison must disappear. His colleagues will try to make them die or disappear "accidentally", and he is responsible for dealing with these people.

A blood-colored lightning ripped through the sky, like a devil opening his hideous eyes. The deafening thunder knocked Kerman torment his heart.

"Go!" He swung the whip suddenly and made a secret decision in his heart: after dealing with the matter tonight, he would pack up his things and go back to the countryside to retire.

Although he didn't know what the boy named Arthur in the car was, the super high reward of 5,000 gold coins made him feel cold all over his body when he thought about it.

The carriage stopped after rushing to the depths of the mountains.

Kerman carried a sack out of the carriage, took out a shovel, and walked towards a wilderness in the distance.

"Brother Arthur, don't blame me! There are faults and debts, and my brother is only responsible for sending you the last leg! No matter what grievances or resentments you have during your lifetime, let it go with the wind. This dangerous world has nothing to do with you again..."

He whispered in a low voice, wanting to be at ease. Although he had never stained the blood of the dead, he could not escape the great guilt of seeking money and killing his life.

"Brother, I'm here! Old brother, please rest in peace!" Kerman put the sack on the ground, took out a wine pot from his arms, and sucked a few times, raised his shovel with both hands and started digging the hole.

The soil mixed with rain gradually covered Arthur's body.

When the rain stopped, Kerman turned around and left in a hurry, and a new grave had already appeared in the chasm behind him.

"drive!"

The sound of horse hooves gradually faded away, and the surroundings gradually became as quiet as death. At this time, Arthur, who was buried in the grave, had some changes in his body.

A strange light appeared on his chest, and his clothes instantly turned into ashes. A blue jade lock the size of a thumb suddenly appeared in the center of his chest. On the jade lock, two black and white airflows flowed rapidly, forming a mysterious pattern. The blue jade lock suddenly shone brightly and rippled like flowing water, wrapping Arthur in it.
