Rise of an Empire

Finding someone is a hard job, especially if you don't know where the person is.

The Duke first wandered around London and even went back to the cemetery to take a look. Unfortunately, there was no news about Wonder Woman at all.

At that time, he was a little depressed that he was not a transferred necromancer, otherwise he could consider summoning Steve Trevor directly from the grave.

After all, this guy named Steve is the only man Wonder Woman loves in her life. Even if he is only in an undead state, he can be used as bait to attract him out.

It's just that that guy has been dead for more than sixty years, his bones are rotten to pieces, and his soul has long since dissipated, so this plan was declared over before it was implemented.

Although Conrad did not implement the impossible soul-calling plan in the end, he had no idea that he had just shocked Wonder Woman, who had been following him.

Diana followed the other party around half of London, not knowing what the other party wanted to do. Who would have thought that the other party actually wandered around and returned to Highgate Cemetery.

Seeing that the other party hesitated in front of Steve's grave for a long time, Diana was extremely confused at the time.

She never thought that the reason why the other party sneaked back to London secretly was because of her.

Of course, there was no way Diana could guess it at all. Conrad had already guessed her identity through some clues.

After all, except for the pervert Ancient One who vaguely saw through Conrad's roots through the ability of the time stone, even Odin didn't know his origins.

Even if Diana inherited the wisdom of Athena, the goddess of wisdom, she would never have thought that her information had been completely leaked.

This is beyond the scope of imagination, it is completely cheating, okay?

"Otherwise, go back to New York directly." Standing at the port of the Thames River, the Duke muttered to himself rather depressedly.

After wandering around London for a day, except for meeting a few nymphos, there was no news about Wonder Woman at all.

But this is really expected. With Wonder Woman's identity and abilities, if she didn't take the initiative to show up, these mortals would certainly not be able to discover her existence.

Thinking about that day, if Phoenix's mental fluctuations were not far beyond ordinary people, she would definitely not have been able to find the other party.

Unlike guys like the Hulk or Wolverine who rely solely on their bodies to survive, Conrad found that wizard masters like him would basically forget about the passive spell of halo. As long as they don't take the initiative to contact others, there would be many There is a high chance of being ignored by others.

Although Wonder Woman is not a magician, she is a living god certified by the Olympian pantheon, so it is reasonable to have a halo of forgetfulness.

If he was wandering around like a headless fly, he would probably never find her even if she searched for him in Europe for ten years.

Just going back in despair made Conrad feel a little boring.

Even if I go back to New York now, I don’t have much to do. Although there are a bunch of beauties with different styles waiting for me to choose from every day, to be honest, if I do this kind of thing too much, it’s just that.

It is now difficult for those vulgar fans to enter the Duke's discernment. Only a few famous women such as the Black Widow, the White Queen or Yamamura Sadako can interest him.

No wonder it is said that the higher a person's status is, the less happiness he can obtain. This is mainly because the level of pursuit is different.

If he hadn't traveled through time yet, not to mention the carefully selected beauties in the manor, any foreign pony would probably make him faint from happiness.

It's a pity that Raven doesn't agree to Conrad's request, otherwise she could try to develop hundreds of thousands of ways to play Mystique.

"Sir, are you going to travel?" Just as the Duke was wondering whether he should continue searching in London or go back to New York directly, a hot brown-haired girl in cool clothes suddenly walked up to him and asked.

"Well, what do you do?" Conrad turned around in surprise and looked at the woman in front of him and asked.

"Sir, are you going on a trip? We have the most luxurious and comfortable itinerary in the world. We guarantee that you will never want to leave. You won't want to get off the boat." The girl showed Conrad her iconic smile, with eight white teeth. Glowing brightly under the setting sun.

Obtained

It turns out that I actually met a boatman

Conrad was a little dumbfounded. If the scene was changed again, and the girl was replaced by a forty-year-old aunt, and the Thames River was replaced by Hong Kong Island, then he would really be back in the previous world.

These boat operators specialize in fooling people into boarding their so-called luxury cruises at docks or river banks. They talk eloquently about beautiful women, high seas travel, fair casinos, beautiful scenery along the way, considerate service, etc. False promises.

But if you really get on the luxury cruise they talk about, then others will have the final say.

Of course, the cruise company High Seas Travel cannot be ruled out, but the odds are high.

Forget it, don't talk about it.

But that was all a lifetime ago, and it would take more than thirty years before there would be so many empty-handed boat carriers.

In the current timeline, the boat rental industry should not have developed yet, so the so-called luxury travel package this girl is talking about should be a serious luxury cruise tour.

After all, the pier was crowded with people, at least one or two thousand people coming and going, but this girl didn't even look at anyone in the eyes, but ran straight to Conrad.

I think I had been observing for a long time before I discovered such a big fish like Conrad.

These days, luxury cruise travel is still a luxury experience for most people. Not to mention ordinary people, even ordinary elite white-collar workers cannot afford it.

Only people like Conrad, who wear handmade custom-made clothes and have a luxurious temperament, are the targets of these boat carriers.

"Travel, where to go?" The Duke thought for a while and asked with a smile.

If you really think about it, I have been in this world for more than ten years, and I have never traveled.

I remember that when I had no money in my previous life, I had the ambition to visit all the scenic spots in the world. Unfortunately, I had no money at all in my previous life.

And in this life

Although the Duke has plenty of money now, he really doesn't have much time to travel.

It just so happened that it still took two years for my undersea army to be trained, so I just went out for a walk.

Think of it as making up for the regrets of the previous life.
