Chapter 77 What is coming has come



Wu Lai guessed correctly that the person who came was of a very high rank in the Third Legion - according to legion conventions, after the chief general comes the deputy general, and after the deputy general comes the disciplinary officer. The person who came today was the disciplinary officer of the Third Legion.

His name is Eugene, he is fifty years old this year, and he has been the military discipline officer in the Third Army for nearly ten years. The military discipline officer does not lead the troops in battle, but he has the responsibility to supervise the entire army, from the deputy general to the grassroots soldiers, so Eugene is actually the most powerful person in the Third Army besides the commander.

With so many people in the legion, Eugene certainly cannot supervise them all by himself, but he has a lot of capable people under him, so under normal circumstances, Eugene only needs to look at the documents and sign his opinions and there is nothing else to do. But this time, he decided to go there in person.

Because this was not only an extremely sincere invitation from Dayi and Ivan, but also a plea from Eugene's good friend, Taki, the deputy general of the Third Army, because Taki said that the attack on Seneca City by bandits was very strange.

By the way, Taki, the deputy general of the Third Legion, is actually Dayi's brother-in-law. Of course, he is twenty years older than Dayi's sister. In addition to this relationship, Taki is also very closely related to Ivan's uncle. However, this is normal. In each Assyrian legion, there is a complex network of relationships.

Therefore, it can be basically concluded that the purpose of Eugene's trip was not to investigate, but to support Dayi and Ivan.

When Eugene lifted the curtain of the carriage, Dayi and Ivan quickly dismounted and went to greet him.

"Enough of the idle chatter, let's go and find that Wuleglindo directly. I have something to ask him." Eugene said lightly, and without waiting for Dayi and Ivan to speak, he lowered the curtain and separated the two of them outside the car.

"Follow me." Dayi glanced at Eugene's driver and felt quite unhappy because Eugene's attitude was a bit too arrogant.

Ivan didn't say anything. He still respected Eugene very much. Eugene was famous for his strictness in the Third Legion, but that was only towards outsiders. He was always harmonious inside the army. It was just that whenever there were outsiders around, this middle-aged guy liked to act so arrogant like he was doing now.

Dayi and Ivan led the way, looking arrogant and complacent. Eugene's exquisitely decorated car followed closely behind. The flag emblem of the Third Legion engraved on both sides of the car body was even more eye-catching. Behind the car, followed by a hundred elite soldiers carefully selected by Dayi, who paraded through the city in a domineering manner and went straight to Baishi Building.

When the car stopped in front of the gate of Baishi Building, Eugene lifted the curtain and stepped down. He frowned and looked at it for a few times, then shook his head gently and asked Dayi who had dismounted, "Is this Wuleglinduo house also newly built?"

"Yes, Wulaglin made a lot of money with many novel things." Dayi replied.

"Then I hope his money is enough to atone for his sins." A cold light suddenly flashed across Eugene's eyes. "I know him a little bit, but the mistake he made this time is not small. After all, he is still a little young."

Dayi was delighted and made a gesture to Ivan without saying anything. Ivan nodded, walked quickly to the door and knocked on it a few times: "The military discipline officer of the legion is here! Open the door quickly!"

"What are you arguing about?!" An impatient voice came from behind the door.

Eugene was startled, and his brows could not help but frown again, thinking, what kind of family is this? How could they be so domineering? !

Ivan was also stunned, and then his heart was filled with anger. What was the difference between being scolded in front of Eugene in Seneca City and slapping himself in front of Eugene?

"Open the door! Open the door, you bastard!" Ivan simply kicked the door.

After kicking twice, the door hinge made a sound, and the door slowly opened, and a figure appeared in Eugene's sight.

He was wearing fox fur, a black robe, and had a thin figure. The wrinkles on his face looked like they were cut by a knife or an axe. He was clearly an old man, but his eyes were bright and full of a hint of arrogance and murderous intent.

He just frowned slightly and gave everyone a sense of danger.

"General... General Lini, how could you..." Eugene realized his gaffe as soon as he finished speaking. He quickly straightened his appearance, took a few quick steps forward, and saluted very seriously.

That's right, the one standing at the door at this moment is Lini. Don't blame Eugene for being so flustered. Wu Lai might think of Lini as an old man who looks serious but is actually interesting. But in fact, Lini is not only the vice president of the Assyrian Citizens' College and a member of the Assyrian Supreme Noble Council, but also an Assyrian general. Although the title of Assyrian general seems a bit general, it is also a synonym for a military god. To put it more clearly, an Assyrian general has the ability and power to command several legions to fight on multiple fronts at the same time. Of course, they will only appear when a large-scale war breaks out.

"You are..." Lini frowned. He was a little unfamiliar with Eugene. The top powerful men of several major Assyrian legions would visit him almost every year, but most of the time, Lini would not pay much attention to military positions below the legion commander.

"Eugene Orton, the disciplinarian of the Third Legion," Eugene replied quickly.

"Oh, Eugene Orton, I remember now." Rini nodded and asked, "What are you doing here?"

"I..." Eugene didn't know how to answer for a moment.

"Something?" Lini frowned.

"No, no." Eugene waved his hands quickly, and after a pause, he said, "I actually came to see Citizen Wooleglindos. I heard he is amazing."

"Of course, Wu Lai is amazing, but he is the one I chose." A smile appeared on Lini's face, just like the happiness a father would feel when he hears his son being praised.

"Oh, so that's how it is. Ah, that's great, that's great." Eugene himself didn't know what was good about it. Anyway, he knew that Seneca's trip was basically in vain. No! It was not in vain. If he could make friends with Lini, he would gain more.

So, Eugene's smile became even fuller. "General Lini, I have always hoped to have the opportunity to sit with you for a while and listen to your teachings. I think that meeting you in Seneca City today must be a sign that God has heard my prayers. So, can you give me some time at some point? Look, we actually met in Seneca."

"Okay." Lini nodded. "Come back in three days. Wu Lai and I have something to do these days. Of course, if you don't want to wait that long, then we can talk next time we meet."

"No, no, I will wait. I will wait. See you in three days. Thank you, General Lini, I won't bother you anymore." Eugene nodded and bowed while taking two steps back.

Rini nodded, turned around, and the door closed again.

"Your Excellency the Military Disciplinary Officer." Dayi came over quickly. For some reason, he suddenly felt uneasy.

"Let's go back to the garrison residence first." Eugene was a little confused, but after thinking about it, he secretly felt lucky that he did not offend Wu Lai, otherwise, he would have suffered a great loss.

Wu Lai walked down the steps quickly to greet Lini: "Oh, my most respected Vice President Lini, it's only been a few days since I last saw you. I really miss you."

"Are you worried about me? It doesn't seem like it. You wrote a letter and sent someone to pick me up. You didn't mean to ask me to block those people for you, did you?" Lini asked with a smile.

The latest novel is published first on Liu9shuba!

"How could that be possible? Besides, how dare I trouble you with such a small matter?" Wu Lai laughed and said, "I really did make two new things, and I can't wait for you to come and see them."

"So you didn't want me to provide you with shelter. If I had known I would be in such a hurry, wouldn't it be better to go into the city with Helen?" Lini glared at Wu Lai in a pretentious manner. Although he knew that half of what Wu Lai said just now was a lie, he really couldn't hate this young man.

"Helen is here too?" Wu Lai was suddenly delighted and almost couldn't believe his ears.

"I'm here. I heard about your fight with the bandits in Seneca. I was worried about you, so I insisted on coming with me. I think you'll be here in the evening. If I hadn't seen the Third Legion's carriages in a hurry and worried that they would come to cause trouble for you, I wouldn't have come so quickly." Lini said as he walked up the steps, "It seems that my decision was right. That Eugene is here to support the Seneca garrison. You are right. The garrison's unusual movements have ulterior motives. But this is not my business, so don't expect me to do more."

"Look at what you said, Vice President Lini, you just drove away those ungrateful guys for me but it was just a side job. I invited you here because I really, really, really, really have something to show you. Otherwise, don't rush in. I'll push it out now?" Wu Lai stopped and asked.

"Get lost! I'm almost freezing in this cold weather." Lini frowned and asked, "Is this how you treat me?"

Wu Lai hurriedly pretended to come over and support Lini's hand: "How could that be possible, Vice President Lini? The open room here has been serving wine and hot stoves every day these days. I said that just now because I was afraid that you would misunderstand my motives."

"I'm sure I didn't misunderstand." Lini couldn't help but knocked Wu Lai on the head, not too hard or too lightly, "Don't call me Vice Dean Lini from now on. Call me teacher. Do you hear me?"

"Okay, okay, Teacher Lini." Although Wu Lai still had a playful smile on his face, he felt warm in his heart. He naturally understood Lini's intention of asking him to change his address. Although all faculty members in the college are called teachers, and even special students would occasionally call Lini teacher, Lini's special instructions today were a disguised form of care - he was declaring that Wu Lai was my student, and if he wanted to touch him, he had to get past me first.

While Rini was comfortably warming himself by the fire, enjoying the wine served by Woolley and chatting with Woolley, Eugene sat down in front of the fireplace in Dayi Mansion.

"Come here, both of you." Eugene waved to Dayi and Ivan, and they came closer and sat down on the other two chairs by the fireplace.

"This Wulaglindo is not a simple person. Originally, I wanted to embarrass him today about the tiger tooth nameplate you two mentioned, but now I can't do it, and I don't plan to do it anymore." Eugene looked at the two of them with burning eyes. "Although you two have never been to the Citizen Academy, you should have heard of General Lini's name."

Dayi and Ivan nodded at the same time. They had more than just heard of it. The current daily training subjects of all Assyrian legions were compiled by Rini. In addition, many tactics that Dayi and Ivan had learned came from Rini's practical experience. For the Assyrian legion, Rini was not only a god of war, but also a living military textbook.

"You two heard today's conversation. I repeat, we can't afford to offend General Lini. By the way, you should not offend Wuleglindo. If possible, make friends with him. If you can't save face, then don't offend each other." Eugene said, "You two were a bit reckless this time. I also covered for you in the legion. This will not happen again. In addition, you should restrain yourself before the change of guard."

When they heard the word "restraint", Dayi and Ivan couldn't help but look at each other, and then nodded at the same time. Since even Eugene said so, they had no choice but to restrain themselves.

"I will visit Anthony tomorrow. Don't underestimate him. He is a member of the Supreme Noble Council after all. If he really wants to make some trouble, there are people willing to support him." Eugene said again.

Da Yi and Ivan really had nothing to say except nodding...
