What happened next was indeed as Locke expected. With the help of the goldfish, Jim got the ring.

At this time, Lock took advantage of Jim's handing the ring to the guard who was watching him and told him that Jim was too tired and needed rest and would meet the king and princess the next day.

The guard agreed and went back to the palace first. Locke grabbed Jim at this time and said, "Jim, you should still remember what I said to you in the palace."

"Yes, Lord Rock, I don't understand why you are cheating on the King. I was thinking about going back and explaining to them later." Jim said.

"The reason is very simple, because the princess will not marry an ordinary civilian. Do you plan to let the princess live an ordinary life after marrying you?" Locke said slowly.

"But lies are lies, and they will be exposed sooner or later. I have no money and I am not a nobleman." Jim said.

"You don't have to worry. As long as you answer my question, I will give you a lot of money, and at the same time, let the queen of the Kingdom of Lorenz help you prove your noble status."

Locke smiled and said, "In this way, your identity and money you have are not lies, but true."

"What's the problem?" Jim also thought it was a good thing when he heard it, so he asked quickly.

"Jim, I found along the way that you seemed to be able to understand what animals said," Locke said.

"Low, Lord Locke, what are you talking about? How can humans understand animals?" Jim covered up in panic.

"Honest Jim, you're not a lie. I could tell at a glance that your words were concealing them." Locke said with a smile:

"You might as well think about it. As long as you tell me this secret, you can live a happy and happy life with the princess. Isn't this your wish?"

"This..." Jim hesitated for a while before whispering: "Okay, Lord Rock, let me tell you, the reason I can understand what animals say is because I have eaten the flesh of a white snake, which the king has to eat every day."

"I understand Jim." Locke nodded with a smile: "Since that's the case, I will fulfill my promise. Now I will take you to buy a manor and land, and leave you a lot of money."

The next day, Jim came to the palace and met the king and the princess.

When he learned that Jim, who had completed her test, was a wealthy man and a nobleman, the princess happily agreed to marry Jim.

The two soon held a wedding, and Locke also attended as a friend, and was rewarded for completing the task.

After that, Rock returned to the forest where the three crows were alone. Before he could reach the nearest of the big tree, he heard a croaking sound coming from the sky.

When they looked up, they saw that it was the three crows before. They looked very happy to see Locke and screamed.

Lock immediately used language to understand, and then understood the words of the three crows: "Good human, have you come to see us?"

"I didn't expect you to grow up so soon." Locke said: "Actually, I'm here this time because I want to ask for your help."

"What the hell do you want us to help?" asked the three crows.

"I've been looking for golden apples, you're flying fast, I want you to help me find it and tell me where to find the golden apple tree." Locke replied.

"So that's the case. Just wait for our good news." As he said this, with a strong wind, the three crows disappeared into the sky.

Looking at the speed of the three crows and the strong wind they brought, Locke knew that these three crows were mostly monsters that inherited special bloodlines, no wonder they could find the Golden Apple in the story.

The three crows flew away directly, and Locke didn't dare to run around, so he could only stay near the forest.

He built a wooden house around him, then went to a nearby city to buy some daily necessities such as clothes. As for food, he directly used a gourmet dining table.

In this way, Locke waited here for more than half a year. Finally one day, he heard the familiar crows screaming from above his head.

The three crows came to Locke and said, "We flew across the sea and finally brought you the golden apple at the end of the world."

When Locke saw the golden apple that one of the crows was holding, he couldn't help but be excited. Then he noticed that the three crows were embarrassed and their feathers were messy, and said:

"Are you injured? I have some potions here that should be useful to you."

Locke said as he took out a crystal bottle and treated the three crows while listening to the three crows telling the story of finding the golden apple.

From their descriptions, Locke finally determined the location of the Golden Apple Tree. It was indeed very far away from here. No wonder the crows were called the end of the world.

After knowing the location of the Golden Apple Tree, Locke rushed over immediately without any haste.

Firstly, the distance is too far, and secondly, according to the description of the three crows, the guards of the Golden Apple Tree are not easy to deal with. Just as the queen said, he is definitely not an opponent now.

After the three crows left, Locke opened his mouth without hesitation and bit the golden apple.

The golden apple tastes very delicious. After one bite, Locke felt as if every cell in his body was thirsty, which made him unable to help but swallow all the golden apples in his stomach in a few gulp.

Next, Locke felt a special change slowly in his body, as if his perception of magic became more acute than before.

At that moment, Locke returned to the wooden house he built and began meditation.

When he opened his eyes again, his face showed a look of obvious surprise.

Just as the queen said, eating golden apples can make people more affinity and magic. Locke obviously felt that the effect of his meditation was more than twice.

In addition, Locke also found that the changes in his body have not completely stopped. It is estimated that the effect brought by the Golden Apple will increase over time, until the effect is fully realized.

"It's true that it's a treasure in Western mythology. I didn't waste my efforts." Locke said to himself with joy.

It took two years to go in the fairy tale world, and took many detours during this period, but finally achieved the goal.

At this time, Locke also felt that it was time to return to the American TV world first, so he contacted the system and chose to return.

"The system's abilities are indeed amazing."

After looking at the time, Locke sighed, he had been in the fairy tale world for more than two years, but only two hours had passed in the American TV world.

Recalling what happened before he entered the fairy tale world, Locke soon remembered the meeting with Seff.

That meeting was not pleasant. Seffer wanted to invest in a secret plan for CIA, but he decisively refused.

Whether Cyfer has defected or is really working for the CIA, Locke doesn't want to get involved in these things.

As for the matters used by the other party to threaten Locke and the Cordis family, Locke reviewed the entire operation and left no trace of his participation.

All of this is nothing more than Cypher's speculation. The only thing to worry about is that if Damon and others are caught, they will threaten to make confessions that are not conducive to Locke.

Not to mention whether Damon and the others would betray Locke, even if they had their confessions, Seff actually had no way to deal with Locke because there was no evidence.

Locke has always been very careful in doing things. Even Damon, who acted the most together, had no evidence of being unfavorable to Locke.

For Cyfer, spreading the news will not have any substantial impact on Locke, and at most it will cause some rumors. The upper-class people in the United States do not have any similar things under their command.

But now we still need to be careful. Thinking of this, Locke called Damon with an encrypted satellite channel: "How is your activity going?"

"I just confirmed that the news is true," Damon said. "We are gathering people and planning the action."

"Suspend all actions," Locke said decisively: "There is an unexpected situation. I will explain it in person after you come back. Everyone must come back."

"No problem." Damon agreed decisively: "I'll go back now."

After hanging up the phone, Locke breathed a sigh of relief and was summoning people. With their caution, the news must have not yet been spread.

He believed that Damon and Vanessa would obey their orders, and that Catalya would not be unfavorable to him for the whereabouts of his enemies. As for Giselle...

Thinking of this, Locke frowned. He could not fully guarantee that Giselle would not do anything. After all, it was hundreds of millions of dollars, but this might also be considered a test of her.

Since Ceffer has set his sights on him, Locke believes that she will never give up so easily. He first needs to confirm what Ceffer’s real purpose is and whether he is still working for the CIA.

In Locke's view, Cyfer would have better leave the CIA, which at least means that he has not been targeted by these federal law enforcement agencies.

For Locke, these law enforcement agencies are much more difficult than a single super spy. If you are really targeted and observe Locke's every move with a magnifying glass, it will be troublesome to do anything in the future.
