Chapter 49 A Crucial Point

  At this time, Old Bate had already left the Marquis's mansion with Lin Feng, constantly shuttling through the streets and alleys of the Imperial Capital...

  On the way, many people saw a person wrapped in black clothes with a young child under his arm, and they were puzzled and shocked at the same time. Is this... robbery?

  Even more, there were several ignorant people who thought that this was a scene of an evil organization kidnapping the son of a noble family. There were even two or three warriors with second or third level strength who initially fantasized about rescuing the child in black clothes and gaining the appreciation of the child's family, thereby rising to fame overnight. Of course, they also saw the linen clothes on Lin Feng's body, but they found it easier to believe that this was a disguise given by the child's family to protect him...

  Although these three warriors wanted to "rescue" the child from the black-robed man, when they saw the thick white aura on his body, they couldn't help but abandon this idea. What was left in their minds was probably just one thought - it seems that a certain large family is going to be finished off?

  As the parties involved, Old Barte and Lin Feng would not have thought of these things. Old Barte's figure was like a wisp of blue smoke as he darted between the alleys, and shortly after he disappeared with Lin Feng, two figures wrapped in white aura chased after them. These two people were naturally Mark and Xial who had caught up.

  The people around saw the two chasing after each other, and they were stunned again. One of the civilians looked at the disappearing figures of the two and muttered to himself: "Is this a great warrior? The speed is really fast..."

  Just as the commoner said, Lin Feng was enjoying this thrilling feeling in Old Bat's arms at this moment. At this time, the aura on Old Bat's body had already protected Lin Feng and helped him dispel most of the air resistance. The feeling Lin Feng had now was like sitting in a convertible sports car in his previous life, enjoying the visual impact and the tension brought by the wind rushing past from the side. Only, his range of activity was not as free as it was in the convertible.

  But Lin Feng didn't care, he was in a great mood at the moment, and he scolded Marquis to his heart's content, making him feel extremely comfortable: "Haha, Coach Bart, I really didn't expect you to come and follow me!"

  Lao Bate searched for a way out while coldly humming, "Hmph, you think I'm following you? If it weren't for the director's orders, I wouldn't bother with you!"

  "Oh? Why would the Dean care so much about a little kid like me?" Lin Feng asked suspiciously.

  "Why? How would I know!" Old Bao muttered gruffly: "Wait till you're lucky enough to escape back and then talk!"

  "Escaping back? Could it be..." Lin Feng's heart stirred.

  "Not bad, you've got some brains after all!"

  Old Barte sneered, "You think I can just take you back safely? Don't be ridiculous! I only told you not to agree with him, but you went and said something so absolute... It seems like you never intended to agree with him in the first place! Since you've gone and said it, you should have been mentally prepared. Now, the two great attendants of the Marquis are probably closing in on us fast! You should know that both of them possess the strength of a great warrior!"

  Lin Feng naturally wouldn't be stupid enough to think that a dignified marquis would be burned to death by himself, and after hearing Old Barthez's words, his heart suddenly shook.

  He originally just wanted to get it over with and didn't think too much about it at the time, which is why he said something so absolute. But after being reminded by Old Bart, he immediately calmed down, his voice filled with a hint of apology: "Coach Bart, I'm really sorry... It seems that this time I've also dragged you into this..."

  "Hmph, that's not the case, I'm afraid they won't recognize me with this getup... " Old Barte's tone was somewhat dissatisfied: "Although I don't like that Carson guy either, he has some connection with the Holy See, and even our Dean wouldn't dare to offend him too much, so I had to disguise myself..."

  "Luckily, Coach Bao also disguised himself..."

  Lin Feng hastily added a sentence, and Old Bao Te heard it and only let out a cold hum, without continuing to speak.

  For a moment, the atmosphere between the two was somewhat awkward.

  Lin Feng stole a glance at him, saw that there was no anger on his face, and carefully tried to probe with a sentence: "This... Coach Batte, the clothes you're wearing are called 'Night Walker's Clothes', right? I recognize them..."

  Old Bater remained silent.

  Lin Feng saw Old Barte still looking stern and couldn't help but add another sentence: "Uh... Coach Barte, the Night Walker's Clothes... shouldn't they be outdated by now?"

  "Shut up, kid! You've got a lot of nonsense to spout." Old Bater finally spoke up: "Now you'd better not say another word!"

  As soon as he finished saying this, Old Bate's eyes lit up, seemingly having found a way to escape, and without hesitation, he rushed forward. Lin Feng saw this and could only honestly shut his mouth, but in his heart, he was extremely envious of Old Bate's speed.

  Like Old Bart's running speed, there was no need for a horse to keep up. In Lin Feng's impression, a year ago, Talman's temporary guardian knight Danny chased the demon wolf at a speed that was much faster than a horse could run. However, Lin Feng had an illusion that the great warrior named Danny seemed to be a little bit faster than Old Bart...

  Lin Feng was about to ask his question, but he looked around and suddenly frowned, subconsciously saying: "Coach Bate, this... doesn't seem to be the direction back to the academy?"

  "That's right, if we go back to the college now, our identities will surely be exposed!"

  This time, Old Bao's tone was still somewhat impatient, but slightly calmer than before. Lin Feng heard it and quickly asked, "Then where are we going?"

  "First go to the 'Fear Forest' in the east to hide for a while. Alright, kid, don't waste words, or I won't be able to focus!" Old Barte snorted coldly.

  "Alright, I'll shut up."

  Lin Feng didn't say a word, but in his heart, he was thinking about the things that had happened recently. He wasn't an ignorant person to begin with, and having experienced two lifetimes, after some calm reflection, he immediately discovered that something seemed off!

  A crucial point that I almost overlooked myself!

  He glanced at Old Barte and hesitated for a long time, but still asked the doubts in his heart: "Uh, this, Coach Barte, can I ask you a question?"

  "Come on, kid! Spit it out already, don't drag it out!" Old Bater snapped back.

  Having obtained Old Barte's consent, Lin Feng sorted out his thoughts and hastily said: "Coach Barte, I always feel that something is not quite right. I'm just an ordinary commoner, even if I have great potential, I shouldn't be receiving such attention from two people of such high status, should I?"

  The "two" in his mouth naturally refers to Robert and Carson. After calm consideration, Lin Feng has sorted out his own thinking. In his opinion, he is just an ordinary civilian. Even if he is more talented than others, he will not be valued by the two nobles. After all, if we say that Ann is also a genius, then he is only slightly more talented than her...

  But, if it's a genius, wouldn't the esteemed Marquis have to swallow his own bitter pill and still offer himself such tempting conditions? And besides, Robert even had Old Barte personally come to protect him? — Ah, let's call it "protection"?

  What is it about me that's worth these two big shots fighting over?

  This is what Lin Feng wants to know!
