The Master of the Strange Realm
Chapter 630
Being able to make the church aware of what was under Nolan was already a huge gain for Jenkins. The activities of the Gear Craftsmen Guild have been worrying Jenkins since last year. Seeing that the last moment is not far away, he must do everything possible to prevent the revival of the oldest difference engine.
It was difficult, but he had to try.
Jenkins has many acquaintances in Beldiran, but for various reasons his injury cannot be publicized everywhere. Apart from colleagues from the Sage Church, the only ones who came to visit the patient this morning were Hathaway and Britney.
The three of them originally made an appointment to go to a concert together last night, but Jenkins completely missed the time because of Kamel's incident. The two girls only heard about it from their father a little later, so they waited patiently until dawn. Just came in a hurry.
When they pushed open the ward door with the fruit basket under the guidance of the nun, they happened to see Miss Capet sitting on the chair beside the bed talking to Jenkins. Jenkins didn't want to recall the awkward atmosphere at the scene at all. He only knew that he had done nothing wrong, but he felt so guilty for no reason that he even forgot to introduce the two parties.
Hathaway and Bryony came to visit Jenkins after dressing up carefully today. Although they were both surprised to see a strange woman in his ward, they concealed their emotions very well. Only then did Jenkins react and introduce his identity to both parties. Miss Cappe probably saw that the relationship between the two ladies and Jenkins was very unusual, so she quickly found an excuse to leave the ward, leaving the space to Jenkins and his friends. them.
"I heard from dad that when you were cooking at home, you ate the wrong thing and got food poisoning. Are you feeling better now?"
Food poisoning was a good excuse, as it would be difficult to detect by a visitor, and Jenkins showed no signs of trauma.
Bryony asked while peeling an apple for Jenkins, and Hathaway bent over the cabinet to sort out the gifts they brought. When Bryony was around, she rarely appeared to be very close to Jenkins, instead giving the opportunity to the blonde.
"I'm much better now. I originally thought I could eat things that chocolate can eat, but now it seems I was wrong. I'm much better now, you don't have to worry."
He said guiltily, and at the same time he touched the cat that was sleeping next to the pillow. Chocolate meowed impatiently and slapped his wrist with its tail.
"Why are you so careless? You should not cook and eat by yourself during this period. It is best to eat in church. Speaking of Jenkins, you are also an adult in your twenties and have your own successful career. Why not What about hiring someone to cook for you? Your family obviously lacks a woman who can cook."
The blond girl said thoughtfully. This was the first time the two of them had met since that night, but their relationship had already made a qualitative leap. Because Britney was sitting on the edge of the bed with her back to Hathaway, her hand was actually holding Jenkins' hand, and Hathaway happened to not be able to see this scene.
"I won't stay in Beldilan for a long time. I will probably return to Nolan with you, so there is no need to hire anyone else. As for this period of time, Dad said that there will always be trouble in my own life, so I suggest that I don't do it in the short term. Leave the Holy See..."
In fact, the church believed that Kamel would look for opportunities to retaliate against Jenkins at any time, so it advised Jenkins not to leave easily until the incident was over.
"Why didn't you see dad? We all thought he would come to take care of you, but we didn't expect that Miss Capet was here."
Hathaway finished tidying up the cabinet and pulled up a chair to sit next to the bed. Jenkins heard the hidden meaning of her words, so he emphasized again that his father was busy with things, and Miss Cape, a reserve nun of the [Church of All Things and Nature], was a friend and happened to have time.
"We are just friends, please don't think too much about it."
He even said this very bluntly. Hathaway thought it was an explanation for her, and Britney also thought it was an explanation for her, so she felt relieved.
"Are all nuns today so beautiful? I noticed that Miss Capet's hair color is very charming, very similar to yours."
Bryony said jokingly, and Jenkins was startled, a little worried that Bryony would see something. Hathaway also joked at this time:
"When I saw the back of that lady just now, I also felt that she looked familiar. After Britney said this, I remembered that she looked very similar to you."
Because there was not enough information, even if they were aware of this, they did not guess the deep meaning behind it. Jenkins smiled and tried to fiddle with this topic, but what he was thinking about was that he hoped that the issue of throne succession would end soon. He was fed up with this matter, and Jenkins just wanted to live a peaceful life.
While Britney went to the bathroom, Hathaway finally seized the opportunity to be alone with Jenkins. After confirming that Bryony disappeared behind the door, she opened her arms and hugged Jenkins. Jenkins vaguely heard her sobbing.
Bryony doesn't know everything about Jenkins, but Hathaway knows how powerful Jenkins really is and what kind of power knowing the identity of the Son gives him. In this case, Jenkins was admitted to the church because of his injury, which is enough to show what bad things happened to him.
"I'm fine, don't worry."
He hugged the red-haired girl and comforted her softly. Hathaway shook her head slightly and let go of Jenkins, without letting Jenkins see her wiping tears.
"I know you're fine. Dad told us that you were fine when you were injured, so I knew you probably wouldn't be seriously injured. So, what happened to you?"
If you want to explain what happened yesterday, you have to start from when Dad asked Jenkins to follow him out, but Britney would probably be back soon after going to the bathroom. So in order to be brief and not to worry Hathaway too much, Jenkins just vaguely said that he met a demigod who was hostile to the church, and lied that the demigod had been dealt with.
"Are you serious?"
"Of course it's true, it's absolutely true and there's no way it's false..."
He said this, although he was worried that Carmel would go to Hathaway and Britney to make trouble, but he didn't ask Hathaway and Britney to pay attention to safety, because Carmel would die today.
In order to cover up his big lie, he missed Hathaway's eyes and looked down at his cat. It happened that Chocolate was also secretly looking at Jenkins, and suddenly looked at him and scared the cat. In order to prevent Jenkins from noticing that he was peeking at him, Chocolate shook his tail and lay down, hiding his face under his paws.
Chapter 1557 Chapter 1533 Revenge
"You must be more careful. I have been worried about you, Jenkins. I know you are doing a lot of things that cannot be told to us, and I will not ask, but please at least understand that some people are waiting for you to come back."
The red-haired girl reached out again and hugged Jenkins who was sitting on the bed, and Jenkins also hugged her. He put his head on Hathaway's shoulder, smelled the scent of the red-haired girl's hair, and enjoyed this moment of peace and tranquility.
But this tranquility did not last long, Hathaway suddenly asked:
"Where were you the night before yesterday?"
"Of course..."
He paused, not because he couldn't remember, but because he stayed at Britney's place the night before yesterday, and his face, which was originally full of smiles, immediately froze.
Although Jenkins has always been good at weaving lies, he mostly relies on "incomplete truths" to deceive. If it is said that he lies in person, he is actually quite bad at it.
Hathaway knew him well in this regard, so when she felt the stiffness of the man she was hugging, she knew the answer:
"I really don't know what you are thinking."
She also leaned her head on Jenkins' shoulder and spoke almost close to Jenkins' ear:
"Brianne's room is next to mine. You know my hearing is many times better than that of a normal gifter. Even if I fall asleep, how dare you..."
Jenkins felt a drop of sweat sliding down his forehead and side face, which made his face itchy, but he didn't dare to move.
"Jenkins, what were you thinking at the time? Are you taking revenge on me? Revenge for locking you in the closet?"
The red-haired girl's voice was very soft, but Jenkins felt an unusual crisis.
"Oh, little boy, is your revenge so strong?"
She almost kissed Jenkins' ear.
The lying cat showed a contemptuous expression, thinking that the two were flirting.
"It's not revenge, it's... I'm lustful."
"Just know it yourself."
She suddenly pushed Jenkins away, then lifted her hair on the side and tucked it behind her ears. From her expression, Hathaway didn't seem angry, at least that's what Jenkins judged.
"That... I..."
He didn't know how to apologize again.
"Don't you know how to apologize?"
The red-haired lady saw through Jenkins at once:
"No need to apologize, just know that what you did was really too much. Jenkins, since I promised you that if you marry Britney, I am willing to be your lover, then I will not regret it, but... at least please respect me."
This sentence made Jenkins even more uncomfortable. This time he took the initiative to open his arms and hug Hathaway. Hathaway did not refuse, but still whispered in his ear:
"Remember to come to my room tonight."
No matter what the reason, Jenkins couldn't refuse at all.
Britney, who came back again, didn't notice the difference between the two. After sitting down, she turned her back to Hathaway and held Jenkins' hand like before. When their hands were intertwined, Britney scratched Jenkins' palm, and then quietly left him a folded small note, which was probably written when she went to the bathroom just now.
When the girls left, Jenkins opened the note. Britney saw that Jenkins' injury was not serious, so she invited him to her room tonight to "visit".
"Your expression is very interesting now."
Miss Cape, who came in from the door, reminded, looking at the note held by Jenkins with some curiosity, and then said jokingly:
"I can see that the two ladies just now have an unusual relationship with you, and the relationship between them is also unusual. This is really interesting. Let me guess, did someone invite you?"
Jenkins couldn't answer this question, and seeing that Jenkins was unwilling to answer, Miss Cape let go of the topic.
Dad would definitely not let the Williams family know that Jenkins was "seriously injured", so apart from Hathaway and Britney, no one else came to visit.
After lunch, the secret keeper, Mr. Wood Bloshear, came again and told Jenkins that the church was currently appraising hundreds of numbered items obtained from Kamel yesterday.
The church has never obtained so many numbered items at once in this era. In addition, there are many dangerous things inside. Moreover, the church has to face the [Blood Mosquito Curse] and Kamel's revenge at the same time, so it has to contact Other churches sought new support.
Coupled with the believers of lies who appeared in the club a few days ago, the terrible things hidden in the dream world, and the cultists of the [Gear Craftsmen Guild] who appeared, the Church of the Twelve Righteous Gods all know that the Beldiran area Due to the current situation, in addition to the combat teams assembled due to the [Blood Mosquito Curse], new support is being reorganized.
I believe that before long, the number of gifters of the Righteous God Church gathered near Beldiran will reach a terrifying number.
In the evening of that day, because the pastors of the Church of All Things and Nature visited the Holy See of the Sages, and Miss Capet also had to attend a meeting, she temporarily left Jenkins' ward.
Taking advantage of the opportunity to be alone at last, Jenkins grabbed his cat and projected it to Loen. Then he used a real phantom to pull his true body to the North Kingdom, and then used a spiritual magnet to project it back to Beldiran's ward and left a new one. Phantom, thus successfully realizing the illusion that his real body is in Loen while the phantom maintains the illusion that he is still lying on the bed.
"Long time no see, Alexia."
After this complicated operation, he finally had the opportunity to hold his beloved girl. The short lady seemed to be very helpful. With a smile on her lips, she tried to push Jenkins and then leaned against him with peace of mind.
Dolores, who was sitting on the sofa pretending to read a newspaper, had an expression similar to that of a cat.
In fact, they had only not seen each other for half a week. After Jenkins sat down, he briefly recounted all the "magical things" he had encountered in Belduran during this period. In just one week, the originally peaceful Beldilan was on the verge of destruction because of Jenkins' arrival. Even Jenkins couldn't explain this.
"We have talked about the Blood Mosquito Curse before. We will talk about other things later. The most important thing now is Alfonso Kamel."
he emphasized.
"Of course, I think you already have a plan."
Alexia knew there was no way Jenkins could keep a demigod alive who could threaten his family and friends, so his revenge was coming now.
Chapter 1558 Chapter 1534 Proof
Although Beldiran is the capital of the Kingdom, the air pollution is not as serious as Nolan City, but this does not mean that there are not huge chimneys erected around the city and factories that swallow the population of the slums.
Even though it was completely dark, the machines in the factory still didn't stop. Obviously, before the world achieves complete automation, the operation of machines means that workers are still busy.
[Berdiran Second Machinery Manufacturing Factory] is located in the north of Beldiran City. This factory was born almost in the year when the steam industry first emerged. It was funded and established by the young Queen, and it is considered a private asset of the royal family.
This factory mainly produces finely processed alloys and simple metal industrial products. It is the most important steel factory in the Belduran region. The factory covers a large area and is in full swing all day and night.
Workers spend their lives here to earn a meager salary to support their families, and the products they produce become the most important pillar supporting the development of the city.
The southwest corner of the factory is the workers' dormitory and warehouse. This arrangement not only allows singles without families to commute to get off work more conveniently, but also facilitates unified management of them. Since there are dormitories for workers, it is inevitable that there will be small shops run by factory owners. The shops can also be used to recycle some of the shillings sent out. For a while, it is said that the factory owners even considered replacing cash wages in the form of "commodity vouchers" .
In the dark night, the short lady and Jenkins walked into the factory together. The workers on shift passed by the two, but they all avoided their path in a tacit understanding. No one even noticed the two men wearing uniforms. The attire is totally inappropriate for a stranger here.
The two of them walked all the way to the simple small shop with brick and stone structure in front of the workers' dormitory area. The owner of the shop walked out of the door early with a feeling, and looked up to see two people walking with their backs to the moonlight.
"Williamt...who are you exactly?"
Kamel, who was hiding here to recuperate, noticed Alexia at a glance. He had been a demigod for a long time, and he could easily see that Alexia was standing on the threshold of becoming a demigod. But at the same time, he also saw that this short woman was different from himself and all the demigods, but he couldn't tell the specific difference.
But obviously, this woman cannot be a demigod from the Sage Church, otherwise the magic mystery would have started here.
"Does it matter who I am?"
Jenkins shook his head, grabbed the space beside him with his right hand, and the Holy Bone Sword was directly lifted out by him:
"You shouldn't threaten me."
"That sword? You are indeed a believer in lies. I read it right last night...are you a believer?"
He recognized the sword that had been used many times by followers of lies and knew that there could be no replica of it.
"No, I'm not a believer."
Jenkins rushed towards Kamal, and the spirit in his body rushed into the holy sword. The sword body glowed faintly in the dark night, and as Jenkins thrust, it shot out white light and shadows straight ahead.
Behind Jenkins, Alexia had already lifted up the blue cube in her right hand. Behind her, complex geometric patterns were pieced together into a rune-style disk, and blue fluorescent lines that were parallel or perpendicular to each other appeared at Alexia's feet.
[Mathematical Principle], as the core of Alexia's ability, has now evolved into something that Jenkins can't understand at all. But he can feel the power coming from behind him, and he also saw the blue energy shock wave that hit Kamal one step faster than his sword light.
A transparent shield appeared in Kamal's hand, first blocking Alexia's attack for him, and then resisting Jenkins' sword.
But the power of the sword's undead curse is something that the shield can't withstand, and Kamal himself was seriously injured because of his multiple rebirths. He couldn't help but spit out blood after resisting these two blows.
Knowing that he was in big trouble today, he jumped up into the sky. As the people in the factory area exclaimed, Alexia, who was hiding her face, and Jenkins riding a unicorn also flew up.
The three of them came together above the city dotted by street lights and lights of thousands of houses. While wiping the blood from the corner of his mouth, Kamal reached out from his pocket and took out a test tube with rusty liquid inside:
"This is the [Gear Bacteria] I bought from the [Gear Craftsmen's Association] some time ago. Let me go, otherwise I will throw it down."
"Do you think I care?"
Jenkins taunted, backhanded a sword, Kamal dodged sideways, threw the test tube in his hand forward, and turned to flee in the opposite direction.
Jenkins riding a unicorn flew in the direction where the test tube disappeared, and Alexia followed Kamal closely.
Unlike Jenkins, who can't fly and lacks long-range attack ability, these two people are genuine and rely on their own talents and hard work to advance to their current level. Two streams of light collided alternately in the sky, and rune shadows and small explosions appeared from time to time.
Finally, they returned to the top of the center of Beldiran. It was obvious that Alexia had the upper hand.
"I don't know what your relationship with William is. Let me go and you can get anything you want."
Kamal said in embarrassment, his eyes fixed on the short woman opposite him.
