Chapter Ninety-Eight: Butterfly's Wings
The night wind was very strong, and Don Quixote's robe was blown and whirred, as a lich, he did not give himself any shield when flying, because it was not necessary, and if there was a light on Don Quixote's face at this time, he would definitely find his somewhat strange expression, obviously because of Merlin's last words.
Naturally, it is impossible for Don Quixote to agree to this condition, not to mention that he is just a lich, even if he is a human, he obviously can't agree, in Don Quixote's opinion, the reason why Merlin said that is not because he is the identity of the mage of the ring, but the relics of the gods behind him, a country pays a princess in exchange for the treasure of a god relics, is there anything more profitable in the world?" Sure enough, how ruthless has the royal family been since ancient times? Pity that little girl. A sigh of Don Quixote was heard in the wind.
On the other end, Merlin's expression was also a little weird, first of all, as a handsome leader with Lea, he was very sincere in wanting to find a happy home for Princess Liya, he knew very well that the princess of the royal family is unlikely to have the right to choose her own life, love, whether it is the royal family of other countries in the future, or to win over some strong people, in the end, it is to become a bargaining chip for the royal inheritance, which is also the ultimate fate of the royal princesses of most countries.
So if she can find someone she doesn't dislike, maybe it can make her future life happier, and although this person is a civilian, but he has the relics of the gods, and now he is a mage of the ring, his future achievements will definitely not be low, even if the talent is poor, at least he can be promoted to a middle-level mage of the ring! With the identity of a princess, it is more than enough!, not to mention his talent in the magic array, even he has been thrown a few streets.
As for Arthur Pendrey, I don't think she will object to this marriage that seems to be a political marriage, but in fact there is some freedom, after all, if the two are really together, then with his understanding of Don Quixote, presumably this amazing man will also do his best to help Britain through various difficulties, and even help Britain develop and grow.
However, apparently the suspicious mage misunderstood that the royal family was greedy for the wealth of the gods on his body and wanted to have a political marriage with him, of course, Merlin could also explain it, and even swear, but in Merlin's opinion, it was absolutely impossible, because then where was the dignity of the royal family?
Thinking of this, Merlin shook his head helplessly, "Liya, uncle can't help it, it seems that the two of you are out of luck." ”
So things in the world are so strange, often because of a thought, it may lead to a completely different outcome in the future, the suspicious Don Quixote missed an opportunity to become a prince directly, and Britain also lost a strong man with unlimited potential.
Of course, even if Don Quixote knew that Merlin was sincere, it was useless, and his identity as a lich meant that he would not be able to fly up the branches and become a phoenix.
Don Quixote returned to Araski, it was already the second half of the night, and he was alone at Kyle's house, Kyle was not at home, it was very cold in the house, because the fireplace was not lit, and the air conditioner was not turned on, Don Quixote guessed that it should be her turn to work the night shift today.
Kyle's bedroom, which has a slight habit of cleanliness, is very tidy, but it is a little surprising that there is no quilt folding, Don Quixote smiled, "I guess I got up late, I don't have time to fold the quilt, I will have a chance to make her an alarm clock in the future," Don Quixote thought so, and put the few clothes he bought from Zemas on her bed.
In the living room, on the coffee table is a box sent by Olena and Winterlock at the risk of their lives. The box is divided into two sides, one is the eavesdropper that Don Quixote needs, and the other side is what Olena asked Don Quixote to give to Sinkid, a tube of refrigerated blood.
"Oh?" Don Quixote raised the corners of his mouth slightly, he knew that Sinkid secretly studied the alchemy of life, because that was the seed he planted himself! Obviously, this blood is the raw material for Sinkid's research on the alchemy of life! But what he didn't expect was that Winterlock didn't know when he was also involved, as for this tube of blood, most of it was Olena's, since he studied life, then the long-lived half-elf was definitely a good entry point.
However, this didn't have much to do with Don Quixote, so he quickly put his energy back on the bugs, which were a total of three button-sized bugs, and a square iron box that took up most of the space of the chest, and the energy was also magic crystals, but because the methods used were different, there would be no magic fluctuations.
Listening to Winterlock, this pure alchemy eavesdropper can be launched, and the source of inspiration is his own wind-based magic array, but when Don Quixote's customary use of psionic energy began to deconstruct this eavesdropper, suddenly, a word popped up in his mind, "butterfly effect."
Don Quixote didn't know who said it, but he still remembered the general meaning of that sentence, as if there was a butterfly in Brazil that flapped its wings when it got up in the morning, and two weeks later, it caused a storm in South America or something.
And at this moment, Don Quixote feels like he is the butterfly, because of his own magic array, the alchemists of this world have been mad to study something similar to radio, which is a bit incredible, maybe they have not yet realized the strategic role of radio waves, you must know that the earth civilization can enter the era of the information explosion, relying on two things, one is electricity, the other is radio waves! Otherwise, this so-called eavesdropper, Winterlock is dead, It is also impossible to bring it out!
Obviously, the principle of the eavesdropper in front of you is already very similar to that on the earth, the button-like eavesdropping device will emit radio signals of different strength when it encounters the stimulation of sound waves, and it spreads out to the surroundings, and the iron box with many adjustment buttons and a similar antenna structure is the receiver, which can accept the signal within the range and restore it to sound, so as to achieve the purpose of synchronous eavesdropping.
Of course, maybe there is no such thing as a horn in this world, so the part of restoring the sound still uses Don Quixote's wind magic array, but that doesn't matter anymore, because of this spiritual energy fluctuation, I'm afraid that even this room can't be transmitted, and what's even more terrifying is that the three button bugs, each with a different frequency, that is, in just a few months, these crazy alchemists have learned to encrypt radio waves!
"If one day, mobile phones and TVs suddenly appear in this world, I don't think I will be too surprised," it seems that Don Quixote is making fun of himself, but in fact, Don Quixote has decided that from today on, he must not casually divulge some knowledge on the earth.
For example, a few days ago, he once got an idea because of changing the molecular arrangement in the stone, that is, if he used psionic energy to destroy the structure of an atom and let it annihilate into the basic element, a huge amount of energy would be released during this period, according to his calculations, even if a stone is annihilated, the energy released is terrifying!
Of course, this kind of spell is still impractical, just like building an object out of thin air requires the construction of tens of trillions of atoms, and the same is true for annihilating an object, which is not something that can be done by manpower, but it doesn't matter if it can't be completed, the concept is still there, if it is really because of his big mouth, the idea of annihilating atoms and releasing energy spreads, so that the crazy alchemist of Britain has studied the atomic bomb, then the fun will be great!
Atomic bomb, in Don Quixote's calculations, the power of an atomic bomb will definitely not be less than the power of the forbidden spell released by the mage of a domain, the problem is that the mage of the field will not release the forbidden spell indiscriminately, they pursue balance, but ordinary people who have mastered the power will not think so, just like if you really give Jin Sanpang an atomic bomb, he really dares to throw it at South Korea!
"Radio waves" Don Quixote whispered a few times, and a plan suddenly appeared in his mind, you know, his purpose is to spy on a temple archbishop, in terms of combat effectiveness, it is the same level as the mage of the ring, so the air conditioning eavesdropping method is no longer practical, it is easy to arouse his vigilance, and it is easy to startle the snake.
So Don Quixote remembered that the last time Olena got married, he said that he was being watched by a new type of bugging, so he wanted to get one to find out the details of the archbishop, but now that he has such a cheating thing as radio waves, maybe he doesn't need to venture into the house of the guy in the Sun Temple.
Of course, before implementing that plan, Don Quixote still had to abide by the agreement and give the tube of blood to Sinkid, after all, refrigeration is refrigeration, and if there is no special means to deal with it, after a long time, the blood may lose its value.
In the early morning, there was not a ray of sunshine, because it was foggy today, obviously, the damn Alncro volcano lost its temper again, so the endless fog once again wrapped the whole of Britain, which couldn't help but make Don Quixote sigh a little, in front of the natural power of heaven, human beings, is really nothing, at least, he really doesn't believe that any mage can create a fog that envelops a country!
"Squeak~~" The sound of the deadbolt turning told Don Quixote, who was meditating with his eyes closed on the sofa, that Kyle was back.
"Ah~~" Kyle yawned, looking tired, obviously the night shift of the Templar is not allowed to rest, it is estimated that he has been patrolling and guarding all night, "When did you come back?" There was a crackling sound, Kyle didn't mind that Don Quixote was there, he took off all the armor on his body, and only a pair of underwear was left, and he didn't wait for Don Quixote to answer, so he walked into the bathroom barefoot, and then a sound of water came from the bathroom, "Ah~ The water is so cold! Damn, taking a bath in winter is a sin!"
"Last night," Don Quixote said lightly, and put away the bugging device and blood on the table, heard Kyle's complaint, and waved his hand again, and a cloud of warm water appeared in the bathroom.
"Thank you Xiaotang, I know that you are the best, have you bought my clothes?"
"In your bedroom. ”
After a while, Kyle, with wet blonde hair, walked out of the bathroom wrapped in a bath towel, "Are you still leaving?"
Don Quixote shrugged, "Morning." ”
"Help me turn on the air conditioner! The fireplace is also lit, and the firewood is ready, so cold!"
With the help of the fireplace and air conditioning, as well as Don Quixote's fire spell, the room soon became warmer, and Kyle had come out of the bedroom and changed into a wide dressing gown, "Pretty eye-catching, beautiful clothes." ”
"What's the matter? what am I doing?" Kyle instinctively clutched his chest, she thought she was gone, but of course the probability of her chest being naked was very low, because there was no main thing about it
"It's nothing," Don Quixote shook his head, "you rest early, I have something to do, so I'll go first"
On the foggy street, Don Quixote walked forward slowly, as if the fog could not block his vision, now Kyle's home seemed to be a harbor for him, where he would still have a sense of belonging, and he did not know what the future would be, but at least at the moment Don Quixote enjoyed this sense of belonging, and did not want anyone to destroy it.
Of course, some people may laugh at him for being unambitious, but in fact, you don't expect a person who was an ordinary person in his previous life to have much ambition, and ordinary people who really have that ambition are basically almost dead. And Don Quixote has never been an ambitious person, the life he expects is like this, plain and free~
"Gentle Township, Hero Mound, hehe, it's a pity I'm not a hero"
