The two people who were stunned by King Arthur's powerful aura in the palace have also returned to their home in Zerath. Although they had lived together before, one lived on the first floor and the other lived on the second floor.
, this is rare in a world like Faerûn.
After all, the concept of sex in this world is still very open. Of course, most of them are among nobles. The life between them is very decadent. Basically, as long as they fall in love with each other, they can have sex overnight.
So like Olina and Donlock, two people have lived in the same house for seven years, but they have not crossed the last bottom line. Even on Earth, this is very rare!
In order to welcome Olina back, Dongluoke, who had never been too lazy to clean the room, cleaned the entire house for the first time, and it could even be said to be spotless.
"Bang!" Olina jumped up and sat on the sofa, "It's better to be comfortable in your own home! You didn't bring any strange woman back when I was not at home."
"Ahem~ How can I?" Dong Luoke stood respectfully next to Olina like a waiter, with a flattering look.
"Dong Locke, I'm...hungry!" Olina, who was sitting there, originally wanted to tell Dong Locke exactly what happened in the underground palace, because Dong Locke is the person she trusts most in the world, and she can lie to anyone.
I would not lie to Dong Locke, but I unexpectedly discovered that at some point, Dong Locke held a piece of paper in his hand, with a line of text written on it, "Don't say anything."
The two have lived together for seven years. Although they did not break through the last layer of defense, they already had a good understanding. When Olina saw this piece of paper, she knew that Dong Luoke meant that there was a watcher nearby.
, so he swallowed back what he just said, and said instead, "I'm hungry."
"But you are not at home, and there is no firewood at home. I have been eating in restaurants outside these days!"
"What?" Olina's anger surged up at that moment! She banged the coffee table, which made Dong Luoke's eardrums numb, and the coffee table was obviously a little shaky, "Can chopping some firewood tire you to death?"
But if you look at Olina's face, you will find that she doesn't look angry at all. Her whole face is full of smiles. It is obvious that she has worked very hard to hold back her smile. Naturally, everything just happened was Dong Luoke's instruction to Olina.
I did it, and Olina is also very talented in acting. Although her expression is not very good, she then shouted, "Where is the bonus that Her Majesty the Queen gave you? Pay it all to me!"
Obviously taking advantage of the convenience of acting to plunder Dongluoke's assets!
This time Dong Luoke really turned bitter. The money was still warm in his hands. Once he really gave it to Olina, he would probably use the meat buns to attack the stray dogs. It would definitely be
If you throw it out, you can’t pick it up again!
But at this time, in order to cooperate with the acting, he could only grit his teeth, take out a bag of gold coins from his pocket, and throw it on the coffee table.
"So many? It seems that the Queen is very satisfied with your work!"
"That's right, I am a direct detective of the British royal family, and I naturally want to satisfy Her Majesty the Queen!" However, even though he said this, the pained expression on Dong Locke's face showed his inner tangle.
"Okay, for the sake of the money," Olina waved her hand domineeringly, "Let's go out to eat today to celebrate my escape!"
There is a very remote restaurant in the main city of Zemas. The service is mediocre and the food is not very delicious. However, the price is cheap and it is not far from my home. According to Dong Luoke, choosing this place is very suitable.
Olina's character will not arouse others' suspicion!
In the private room, facing a table full of dishes, Olina couldn't help feeling a little emotional.
"What's wrong?" Dong Luoke rarely saw Olina with such an expression.
Olina shook her head, "When I was trapped in the underground palace, I almost starved to death. At that time, I thought that I would never be picky about food in this life, so I specially ordered this purple cabbage salad, but
I just realized now that I still hate this purple cabbage salad! It’s disgusting just to look at it!”
Dong Luoke held Olina's hand naturally. This middle-aged man in his thirties had a rare tenderness on his face, "It's good to come back. From now on, it will be as usual. You like to eat delicious food.
Eat, if you don’t like the bad food, I’ll eat it.”
Olina's eye circles were a little red, "Forget it, let's not talk about that." As she said that, Olina poured herself a glass of wine and drank it in one sip. Obviously she didn't want to think about this unforgettable and unhappy period.
Things, "What's going on at home? Is someone watching us?"
Dong Luoke also poured himself a large glass of wine and drank it in one sip, "During your absence, the Royal Alchemy Laboratory developed a magic eavesdropping circle similar to that invented by Don Quixote.
With pure alchemy, even you can't detect a trace of magic fluctuation!"
"That's not the most terrifying thing," Dong Luoke said as if he was thirsty, he poured himself another glass of wine and drank it all in one gulp! "The most powerful thing about this alchemy product is that it can act like communication magic.
Similarly, the sound in its environment is transmitted to a receiver at a certain distance away in real time, and unfortunately, we have one installed in our home, just under the coffee table in the living room!"
"Monitoring us?" Olina's heart skipped a beat, and the expression on her face was a little subtle, "How do you know this?"
Dong Luoke seemed to be a little drunk at this time, and he put his head in front of Olina, and whispered, "Although the alchemists who are studying this bug are being monitored all the time, the alchemists
It is impossible for even mages and knights to know all the methods of magicians. Moreover, especially those wizards, what they despise most is alchemy. People who do not understand alchemy, if we are willing, we can use it under his control.
Communicate under the nose, just like this eavesdropping device, completely made in a physical way, without any magic fluctuations!"
"This news was told to me by my friend from the KGB. He is the person in charge of this alchemy project. Of course, he secretly sent this news just because he was a little dissatisfied with Don Quixote, so he showed it off to me and let me judge.
His design is more awesome, etc. He said that if he had the chance, he must discuss it with Don Quixote. After all, he still admired Don Quixote's unconstrained thinking."
"When we came back today, I just found out as soon as I entered the house that our home had been visited by others. You also know what I am capable of. Even if there is the slightest trace in the house, don't try to escape my eyes!"
Regarding the smell of alcohol on Dong Luoke's breath, Olina glared at him angrily and turned his head to the side, "Then how can you be sure that you were installed with a bug and not a thief?"
"It's because he is too careful and does things too cleanly. Such a person is definitely a professional spy, and it is worth doing this to us. I think besides our suspicious Queen, I can't think of anyone else."
Yes! I have heard about the ruins of the Goddess of Time, but that was a long time ago. The Goddess of Time is the one who likes wealth the most among all the true gods, especially shining gold coins! Obviously the Queen doubts you.
You didn't tell the truth about what happened in the ruins. After all, it was such a huge wealth that even the royal family wouldn't be unmoved! The easiest way, and one that won't let us notice, is of course to use this new eavesdropping device.
Got it!"
"Then do you think I'm telling the truth?" Under the influence of Don Quixote's spell, Olina's words were so confident that even Arthur Penride would only believe them when he heard them.
What she said is true!
But Dong Luoke smiled slightly, "The story was told very well, and the language was concise and there were almost no loopholes, but the letter was a failure! Having fought with him several times in person, I know that this guy definitely has some obsessive-compulsive disorder. He
I hope everything can go according to the direction he envisioned. If you two died in the ruins, wouldn't he have made a miscalculation? That would not be in line with his character!"
"So he will definitely move you directly to the teleportation array, and then put the letter on you. But then, you two will be able to leave there as soon as possible after waking up! Instead of going there after that.
It took four days for you to contact us, and the only explanation is that you lied!"
------------------------------I am the dividing line
"It's actually like this!"
Olina slowly told Dong Locke what really happened in the underground palace. When Dong Locke heard that the Time Guardian had self-destructed, he broke into a cold sweat even though this woman was still in front of him!
He knew that if it hadn't been for Don Quixote, he might have really lost the woman in front of him. And it's really like what Master McMaster said, life is always full of unknowns, and it's useless to think too far!
"We escaped in the end, and he gave me the letter before he left. To be honest, I was really shocked at that time! He was so courageous that he dared to provoke the Queen."
"Normal." Dong Luoke drank another drink from the glass. "There is nothing that can restrain a person like him. Apart from absolute strength, let alone the fact that he is a lich, I think
Even the Queen would not be willing to conflict with him if she knew he was a lich. After all, creatures like lichs are too difficult to deal with! As for the Queen's surveillance, I think she is just suspicious. After all, she
I have never really seen Don Quixote, so even if I have the ability to understand people's hearts, it will be of no use!"
"Also, you must keep the Lich's affairs a secret. The debt we owe him is too great! As for the huge amount of wealth you mentioned, I'm afraid we won't be able to use it for a long time, otherwise there's nothing we can do about it.
Explain the source of this money!”
"What? Olina looks disappointed, doesn't that mean my dream of being a rich woman is bankrupt?"
Dong Luoke habitually touched Olina's head and said, "Don't think so far ahead about the future!"
"Huh!" After hearing this, Olina seemed to have thought of something and snorted coldly. Of course, she was snorting about Dong Locke's damn excuse!
However, at this moment, Dong Luoke held Olina's hand with a drunken look on his face, his eyes were hazy, as if he would be drunk the next moment, and he finally said what he had been hiding in his heart for a long time under the influence of alcohol.
if!
"marry me!"
"What?" Olina didn't seem to hear clearly, but the unconcealed excitement on her face revealed her mood at this time!
"marry me!"
"Bang!" The plate of purple cabbage salad was slapped on Dong Locke's face. In such a desperate environment in the underground palace, Olina had not shed a single tear, but at this moment she was crying, smiling and crying.
!
"Although I've been waiting for your words for seven years, what's the point of proposing to me in a restaurant? Shouldn't it be in the flowers? You should be half-kneeling!"
"Also, where is the engagement ring? Where is my fucking engagement ring?" Olina even cursed because she was so excited!
After being splashed with salad dressing on his face, Dong Luoke seemed to have sobered up a little, with a look of grievance on his face, "My money is all with you, how can I buy a ring..."
