After the meeting, Larry was in a low mood, with his mouth corners down, and he stood straight outside the meeting room, waiting for Director Jem.
One by one, the members and nobles left the meeting room, and the people from the Red Church also left the meeting room.
When Hera passed by Larry, her eyes were very unfriendly.
Larry did not look at her, because he knew that his speech was very unfavorable to the blood race.
After a long time, Director Jem came out with Councillor Claude.
Just now, the two of them were left by the speaker and the deputy speaker, and they were assigned some things, so they came out very late.
Director Jem's attitude towards Larry was also very bad: "Follow Deputy Director Claude! He will arrange some things for you, cooperate carefully and don't mess it up again."
"Yes! Director!"
Claude has now been promoted. He became the deputy director of the city police department, managing the police stations of the six towns outside the city of Fabro.
"Let's go, Larry."
Larry had to follow Claude to the outside of the parliament building complex. It was already late at night, and he didn't know where Deputy Director Claude was going to take him.
They went all the way to Claude's office in the city police station. When Larry entered Claude's office, he saw his captain Wayne was there too.
Not only Wayne was there, Larry also saw another person who surprised him even more.
One of the protagonists in the meeting room just now, the wizard Rudolph, was actually sitting on the sofa.
Larry couldn't help but look around. This was indeed an office in the police station, and there was a police badge hanging on the wall.
"Close the door."
Hearing Claude's words, Larry had to close the door of the office.
The members of the Alchemy Council are people from all walks of life who can represent the interests of alchemists. Claude, the deputy director of the police station and a level 3 alchemist, is qualified to be a member of the council, and Larry had to listen to Claude's orders.
"Sit down, Larry, don't be restrained."
Hearing Claude's words, Larry sat next to Wayne.
Claude sat behind his desk, lit a cigarette, and said slowly:
"I know there are some misunderstandings between you. Wayne, I am Rudolph's guarantor. I am willing to use my future and personality to guarantee that Rudolph will not do anything bad."
Wayne couldn't help but say: "Including killing Baron Hakem?"
"Wayne, with your help, Ms. Hera killed Sir Harley with her own hands. You have no right to criticize anyone. If it weren't for Director Jem to protect you, you would be in prison now."
Wayne was speechless. He didn't know that Hera dared to attack Sir Harley in public.
Of course, from the analysis afterwards, if Hera killed the wizard Rudolph, then the cavalry on the ground would die in the hands of the werewolves. At that time, there would be no evidence, and there would be nothing to worry about.
But the problem was that Hera failed to defeat the wizard. The wizard sat opposite Wayne intact, drinking the wine hidden in Deputy Director Claude's cabinet.
Claude continued,
"The Inquisition will still not launch a witch hunt against Rudolph. Wayne, you must be careful not to take any unnecessary actions against Rudolph. For my sake, this matter ends here."
Seeing Deputy Director Claude's serious look, Wayne had to sigh, "I understand, Deputy Director, I won't make any more small moves."
"Very good." Claude comforted him,
"Wayne, because of the existence of the Red Church Agreement, we have occupied the current land of Fabro City and allowed the Ravno family to operate here. Therefore, it is not easy for us to directly take action against the Ravno family.
The Inquisition is not convenient, the police station is not convenient, and the parliament is not convenient. The Alchemy Parliament must abide by the minimum contract, and superficial compliance is also compliance.
It is easy to destroy order, but it is difficult to establish and maintain order. However, we need a breaker and someone to investigate some things for us. Now, I will convey the order of Speaker Quint and Vice Speaker Abel. "
Wayne and Larry both became serious. They all knew that the parliament would not protect a wizard for no reason, even if the wizard had Claude's guarantee.
Claude said:
"According to reliable information, the founder of the Ravno family, the 4th-level vampire Ravno, has made new moves. His golden coffin has been moved from the ancient castle to the Red Church in Fabro City.
Ravno will soon wake up from his ancient golden coffin, which is so bad.
A vampire like Ravno who has lived for thousands of years will not wake up easily from his slumber. Any enjoyment of human beings is meaningless to him, and his awakening must be due to something else.
Speaker Quint speculated that in the past year or so, werewolves have been staring at our Fabro City, evil gods have been staring at our Fabro City, and nearby forces in the wilderness are gathering towards Fabro City. The most likely reason is that Ravno is about to wake up.
This puts great pressure on the Alchemy Council. The Council is preparing to organize an unconventional force to secretly investigate Ravno.
This matter is very, very dangerous, and the level is also very, very high.
Therefore, Wayne, not only can you not do anything to Rudolph anymore, but you must satisfy any needs of Rudolph, because Rudolph is one of the important executors of this plan.
Director Jem originally planned to send other witch hunters to assist Rudolph, but I don't think it's necessary. You are relatively familiar with Rudolph, and you already know about Rudolph's existence. The fewer people who know about it, the less risk Rudolph will be exposed. "
Sheriff Claude finally finished a cigarette, and he lit another one:
"Fabro City is already facing a situation of resource depletion and fiscal austerity. If the Ravno family secretly makes some moves, then our Alchemy Council may really lose Fabro City.
Wayne, you are also an alchemist, I hope you can focus on the common interests of alchemists and temporarily put aside your prejudices.
If this matter is over, I will let Rudolph go to prison for a few years to satisfy the ideas of the Trial Bureau and the witch hunters. "
Rudolph didn't even drink the wine: "I won't go, I absolutely can't go. "
Claude glanced at Rudolph, meaning that you won't even agree if it's just a show?
Rudolph had to grit his teeth and agree: "A few years is too long, a few months."
Wayne was not disturbed by the bickering of the two men. Only then did he understand why the bigwigs in the parliament went to such lengths to protect this wizard. He also felt that it wouldn't be like this just for Claude's face.
If it was for the city of Fabro, to prevent some conspiracy of the blood clan, then it made sense.
"Okay, I will cooperate with Rudolph. If Deputy Director Claude needs the cooperation of the Trial Bureau and Director Jem knows about it, I will be the best executor."
"Okay. Rudolph needs to review the information of the Ravno family recently. You should cooperate with him to do this first."
After Wayne and Larry left, Claude and Rudolph said, "Rudolph, are you afraid of this dangerous job?"
"I'm not afraid, but is there a salary?"
Claude looked proud: "I knew you would ask that. Fortunately, I have made preparations. You are now employed by the city police department. You not only have a salary, but also funds for activities. Are you satisfied? "
"Not bad, it meets the minimum requirements."
Claude couldn't help but say: "Rudolf, there are wizards who do evil, some who are unforgivable, and some who are killed early, but I have never heard of a poor wizard. Why don't you sell some magic tools? I don't believe you don't have some collections. "
Rudolf suddenly realized: "You are right, I should find some way to generate income."
This late night, after Hera returned to the city's red church, she did not rest, but walked to the statue of the ancestor of the blood clan in the center of the church.
Behind the statue, there is a corridor leading to the underground. There are candles on both sides of the corridor, flickering with dim light.
Hera stood in front of a golden coffin and whispered:
"Great father, the Alchemy Council is becoming more and more rampant. I think it's time to take back our territory. "
