Age of Empires From Scratch - Chapter 538
[Chapter 535 Monarch Offline System]
David did not explain, and Wang Zhenzhen did not ask.
She was just like that. She thought that David did not explain in detail because he did not want to say it, and she would not keep asking.
In fact, as long as Wang Zhenzhen asked a little, David would tell Wang Zhenzhen very straightforwardly that he was actually going to exorcise demons and catch ghosts. If Wang Zhenzhen was curious, he would also perform holy light or magic.
Although David’s arcane magic was not very profound and exquisite, it was not difficult to subdue a few ordinary people.
Wang Zhenzhen did not ask, and David naturally did not say.
Ma Xiaoling on the side secretly breathed a sigh of relief. She was not going to tell Wang Zhenzhen about her real job, because these things were not acceptable to everyone. Wang Zhenzhen was just an ordinary person. She felt that keeping Zhenzhen away from demons and ghosts was the best choice.
Cheng Le’er secretly rejoiced. She knew David’s secret, but Wang Zhenzhen did not know it, and David did not intend to tell her on his own initiative. It was obvious who was more important in David’s heart.
At this moment, Cheng Le’er recalled what her father had said: “This young man cannot be subdued by just any woman.” ‘This warning to remind her not to get too deep into it was directly understood as ‘Only I can conquer a man as good as David.’
“It’s getting late, let’s close the shop and go home!”
It was already evening when Wang Zhenzhen and Ma Xiaoling arrived. At this time, there were only a few unlucky people who were still working overtime in the whole building, and most people had already left work.
Ma Xiaoling really wanted to ask David if he was going to steal her business.
But Wang Zhenzhen was beside her, so it was really hard to ask. She simply waited a few days until Wang Zhenzhen was not around to ask.
However, in this case, she had to confirm when David would go to the police station.
“David, when are you going to go?”
“I haven’t decided yet, maybe I have to wait a few days.” David was surprised. Ma Xiaoling had always disliked him and never even smiled at him. Why did she take the initiative to ask him about something today?
Could it be…she was afraid that he would steal her business?
As the heir of the Ma family, Ma Xiaoling could not fall in love with men like ordinary girls, let alone fall in love with men. If she cried for a man, she would lose all her power, so she put all her thoughts on making money.
Could it be that Ma Xiaoling was upset because she could only look at such a good man and not eat him?
Well, it was reasonable and logical!
“Let’s go together when the time comes!”
“Hmm?”
Did he guess wrong? Ma Xiaoling would rather not be the successor of the Ma family to take him down, and finally wanted to launch an offensive? After
feeling shameless for a while, David agreed to Ma Xiaoling and said that he would notify her in advance on the day he went there.
“See you then!”
After getting the answer, Ma Xiaoling took Wang Zhenzhen and said she was going to go shopping nearby, and directly separated from David and Cheng Le’er.
In fact, she still had the idea of finding out David’s true identity in her heart, and just took this opportunity to see what David was capable of?
It would be great if he could find out his background through the spells he used or something else.
David walked around with Cheng Le’er nearby, drove her home late at night, and then went back to the apartment.
As usual, he talked about the matter with Sophia, and rested after doing some simple exercises together.
An ordinary day passed like this.
The next day, David washed up and went to work as usual. Sophia was going to Manhan Building to continue training Liao Jie.
It was said that Liao Jie had recovered well and had regained 80% of his former strength. Manhan Building was fully preparing for the showdown with the Superb Diet Group.
For this reason, Sophia was not going to follow David to watch the fun, and quietly waited for Cheng Le’er to join the pit.
“Or Sister Shan!”
Either one would do. If this continued, she would have to seriously consider asking David to open a portal to send her back to Winter Castle.
Thinking of this, Sophia had a flash of inspiration.
“It seems… opening a portal doesn’t have any effect?”
“Do you want to go back?”
“No, what I mean is that although the time of the two worlds will be synchronized after a stable connection is established, this is not a bad thing for you, right?”
“Oh?”
“You see, Winter Castle is currently developing steadily, and the Kingdom of Greece and Westeros are also developing steadily, but if you want to really help Winter Castle, it will take at least several years or even decades.”
Winter Castle’s army needs to be expanded, equipment needs to be produced, warships need to be manufactured, and crew members need to be trained from scratch.
It also takes time for the population of the Matrix world to migrate to Winter Castle, and then be completely assimilated by Winter Castle.
“This is not a conflict!”
These things all take time, and the most important thing is that David doesn’t need to handle them personally. He can only wait in Winter Castle.
David came to this world and wanted to stay for a while, simply because there was more fun here, and he could have a good time.
When he had enough fun, he would go back and continue to wait for the progress of various affairs.
It was like playing a placement game: various tasks and development plans were set, and they were all reading bars there, and David had no way to speed up.
“After you synchronize the time, you can continue to stay here to have fun.”
Anyway, the cross-dimensional communication technology of Winter City has been developed, and even the directional transmission equipment has been built. If something really happens in Winter City, it can be communicated or even directly transmitted to find David, and it will not delay the business.
“That’s right.”
David felt that what Sofia said made some sense, and even thought further that with the improvement of cross-dimensional synchronous communication technology, he could go to any world he wanted to play in the future.
With the further growth of Winter City’s military strength and the completion of the Brunia, with the VF fighters and Cybertron warriors, even if the Sarkhan fleet came, it would not be without the ability to fight.
In this case, he, the king, did have the confidence to go out and wander around.
“When you get tired of a certain world, you can change to another world to pass the time.”
For example, go to the Red Alert world to destroy the Empire of the Rising Sun; go to Star Wars to kill Palpatine and become the emperor of the Galactic Empire; go to the Azeroth world to completely awaken Azeroth, and then train Azeroth into a more powerful Protoss Titan to beat Sargeras.
There are still many choices. The more David thinks about it, the more he thinks that this matter is worth doing.
“But don’t worry, when I learn cooking skills, I will give Laura, Helen, Gwen and others a surprise.”
“Don’t worry, I won’t let you go back in a short time.” I
have been with Sofia for a long time, but the two of us don’t have much time to spend alone. Sofia has been staying in Winter City all the time, and only left for a while with the army when the Winter Kingdom marched south.
This time, David originally planned to spend time with Sofia, but he didn’t expect to come to this hodgepodge of Hong Kong, and the temptations that appeared around him one after another made his eyes dazzled.
“Okay, wait until I learn how to cook a full banquet, and then connect the two worlds.”
“…”
David smiled and didn’t answer. He was very curious. Could Sophia learn how to cook a full banquet? And how long would it take?
If Sophia was happy to learn and wanted to pass on her extraordinary skills after returning to Winter City, would she have to open a cooking school in Winter City?
David’s thoughts went astray. After working for two days in the company and interviewing several unreliable interviewees who were just there to watch the fun, he estimated that the time was about right. He called Ma Xiaoling and Hu Huishan one after another and decided to go to the police station today.
Cheng Le’er called her driver and lent David a Rolls-Royce.
“Since they are British nobles who are visiting, it would be inappropriate for you to drive there by yourself.”
“Le’er is still thoughtful.” David looked at Le’er who was helping him adjust his collar, and reached out to hold the back of her head and gently pressed her forehead.
Cheng Le’er was stunned for a second, then continued to help David with his blushing smile: “Should I wear a tie for this kind of occasion?”
“No, I hate wearing ties.”
“I’ll help you!”
“No, I don’t like anything restraining my neck, not just ties.” David explained: “Just think of it as my quirk.”
“So that’s how it is.” Cheng Le’er nodded and secretly took note that he would not buy ties or bow ties as gifts for David in the future.
But even without a tie, David would wear a suit and stand there, and he would have a noble air.
Cheng Le’er would sometimes be curious about what kind of family David came from, but he would always fool himself with words like “Actually I’m a king”, which was really annoying! After
sending David to the car and telling the driver to treat Mr. Glamorgan more respectfully than himself, Cheng Le’er watched the car leave before going back to continue interviewing assistants.
David took the car all the way to his destination: a police station with a location that was not particularly good, but not bad, between the bustling area and the poor area.
Before arriving, David received a call from Hu Huishan, telling him that she had informed the chief of this police station, Superintendent Hu Xinhu, and that when David arrived, Chief Hu should have been waiting.
“Last name Hu?” I wonder if this chief is related to Hu Huishan in this world? If so, you need to take extra care of her, right? For example, give her a talisman or something?
“Chief Hu and I are not relatives.”
“Oh!”
Since there is no relationship, there is no need to take extra care of her. If you want a talisman, you can! Ten thousand pounds each.
Considering that ordinary people do not have such strong spending power, David began to consider whether to make a batch of amulets of lower quality? They can be sold cheaper.
Although you can’t make much money from each one, the sales volume will definitely be many times higher, so you can make small profits but quick turnover.
Just thinking about this, David got out of the car parked in front of the police station, and immediately saw Chief Hu who greeted him enthusiastically, and Ma Xiaoling who had also just arrived.
