"Why are you?"

Luo Shu never expected that he would meet the old scholar of the "Eye of the Empire" of the Ursus Empire from Peterheim Middle School here.

He restrained his hostility and stared at him suspiciously:

"Mr. John Steele?"

"Sorry, Professor Su Luo, the old man didn't intend to follow you, but he had a last resort." Old John felt that Luo Shu had no obvious hostility, and he was somewhat relieved.

However, he also noticed that Luo Shu hadn't completely put down his guard, so he didn't approach rashly.

"Old man, as a member of the 'Eye of the Empire', what else is worth doing yourself? Are you also here for the eruption of the Luoyan Mountain?"

"To be honest." Old John said the purpose of his trip,

"Since I talked with Professor Su Luo last time, I feel that it is necessary to cultivate some talents who are more down-to-earth. It's just that some of my students who were doing volcano research were doing field research in the Luoyan Mountains. Not long ago, they suddenly disappeared. Lian, so the old man is actually the same as you, he came here to find someone."

"Oh?" Luo Shu was noncommittal when he heard the words. He didn't intend to believe the other party's words so easily, but just asked a rather sharp topic.

"You don't know the troops outside the mountains, do you?"

"..." Old John hesitated for a while when he heard Luo Shu's question, but he thought that his trip had already delayed a lot of time, and several of his students should have died. There is still no sign of such a large mountain range after the restoration of communication. When he dialed the communication, he inevitably had an ominous premonition in his heart.

However, he didn't know why the imperial troops on the periphery came, so he didn't know how to answer for a while.

The questioning look in Luo Shu's eyes intensified a bit, and he asked coldly:

"It seems that the old man doesn't want to talk about it?"

"Professor Su Luo, the imperial army outside the mountains did not follow the old man. In fact, when the local garrison in Chernobog sent such an army, even the old man didn't know."

"Oh? What else can be hidden from the eyes and ears of the eyes of the empire like you?" Luo Shu's words revealed a joke,

"Mr., for the sake of the truth, I believe that you happened to pass by, but for the sake of my students, I can only ask the old man to take a good rest for a while."

Luo Shu's words made old John feel quite helpless, he didn't understand what he meant.

However, after all, Old John is considered weather-tested and has experienced several wars, so he said calmly:

"I know that Professor Su Luo may not be able to trust the old man for a while, but there are still people in the empire who can override everyone and directly dispatch troops without notifying the governments of various places."

Luo Shu was taken aback, and he frowned:

"You mean, this army that suddenly appeared on Route 48 was directly ordered by the emperor of the Ursus Empire?"

"At present, it should be like this."

Old John replied helplessly, he knew that if he didn't tell Luo Shu some information, it would be difficult to convince him that he was not hostile.

Hearing this, Luo Shu fell into silence. After a while, he said in a cold tone:

"Mr., let me believe what you said is true, but just in case, I still can't just let you go."

When Old John heard this, he couldn't help feeling a little stunned.

He didn't expect Luo Shu to be so suspicious, and he was stunned for a moment.

"After all, you are still a member of the Ursus Empire in the final analysis. It is difficult for me to let you leave like this when I am unable to confirm my current situation. This is too risky for me and my students."

Hearing Luo Shu's blunt confession, Old John couldn't find any words to refute for a while, so he could only sigh helplessly:

"Professor Su Luo, you are as suspicious and cautious as ever."

"It's not easy to live in this era. If I'm not cautious, I'm afraid I won't even be able to get out of Colombia."

Old John heard that he understood that Luo Shu was difficult to convince with words.

However, he also knew that if he was in Luo Shu's position, it would be difficult for him to just believe the words of a strangely dressed person who suddenly appeared in front of him.

Even if, this person had had a good talk with him not long ago.

However, Old John was not helpless. He took out something from his arms and threw it over.

As soon as Luo Shu reached out to catch it, he found that it was the pipe engraved with the Medal of Honor pattern of the Eye of the Empire in Old John's hand. He couldn't help being taken aback,

"Old sir, what do you mean?"

"There is only one thing on this old man that can prove my identity. If you still don't believe me, well, this old man can go with you until you and yours arrive at a safe place. Is this enough?"

Luo Shu couldn't help but fell into hesitation. He glanced at the pipe in his hand, and then raised his head to look at the other party without unnecessary movements.

Luo Shu was caught in a dilemma. At such a sensitive time, it was really hard for him not to doubt Old John's true motives.

It's just that he couldn't help that what the other party said was a lie.

For a moment, he couldn't help but get a little tangled up.

Trusting this kind of thing is very fragile, so generally speaking, it is difficult for Luo Shu to trust such a stranger easily.

However, he also understood that unless he killed the opponent or knocked him out, he would not be able to fully confirm his safety for the time being.

Moreover, he didn't think Old John would sit still. Scholars from institutions like the Eye of the Empire had experienced wars, so they must have some means to protect themselves.

If Old John releases flares to attract the troops outside the mountains, then he and Di Ling will be in a very dangerous situation.

What's more, he also knew that Old John handed over the pipe in his hand that symbolized his identity as the Eye of the Empire, which had already shown that he had made a concession.

If you persecute yourself too much, I am afraid it will only backfire.
