Chapter 72 Incredible
The 648th year of the Demon King Calendar.

May 2nd, morning.

Several hours had passed since Olday had suddenly disappeared from the chapel during prayer.

During these hours, all the knights of the royal guard ran around the castle as if their butts were on fire, trying to find any clues about where Oldie had gone.

But after searching almost the entire castle and even issuing a warrant for her arrest throughout the territory, there was still no clue as to where Orday had gone.

Then everyone has to accept a reality.

Ordai was taken away by the Demon King.

This is really hard to understand. There are obviously a large number of devout believers in the Knights Guard, so why take away someone who can't even be considered a believer?

Just because you look good?
That's impossible. We in the Knights Guard have plenty of beauties!
Everyone was puzzled, and soon afterwards, Viola received an oracle from the Demon God, saying that Oldie was with me and would return in a few days.

Zora, the leader of the Royal Guard Knights, also received a similar oracle, confirming that Viola was not mistaken.

Then Viola was a little bit upset...
"Why, why Alday?"

"Is there anything I haven't done well enough?"

"Your Majesty, you should choose me!"

"No, I can't think like that. Your Majesty must have other intentions!"

Viola, who was very normal in front of the Royal Guards, couldn't hold herself back after returning to her room.

The sound of her talking to herself could be heard in the room, occasionally mixed with the noise of scratching the wall and patting the floor.

For devout believers, going to the kingdom of God is the highest honor, but this honor was taken by a guy who can't even be considered a believer.

This made Viola lose her guard. She even wondered if Oldie's action of taking off her clothes was correct. Should everyone pray together without clothes tomorrow...

Zora, who was guarding outside the door, understood Viola's feelings very well, but she was much more rational.

Regardless of who was taken away by the Demon King, he said he would be back in a few days. By then, we can learn news about the God Realm from Ordeal, which is obviously very good.

She listened to the noise coming from the room, and when she looked up, she saw Xuelin tiptoeing over and pointing to Viola's room.

"What happened to her, Your Highness?"

Zora is still trying to save Viola's reputation:

"Mature women always have some troubles. Just let Your Highness calm down."

"Really? Why don't I have any?"

Zora smiled but said nothing, probably saying, you may not be considered a mature woman yet...

–‐‐——–‐‐——

Qian Sen simply explained the situation to Li Chengxi, then asked for Oldie's basic information, and then stood up and said goodbye, very happily.

He said that as long as the expenses of Miss Oldie's living with Li Chengxi were not too outrageous, they would generally be reimbursed, and he hoped that Li Chengxi could teach her some common sense about living on Earth.

He also said that although Section 9 could not give Li Chengxi any monetary rewards, it could provide administrative conveniences and he could call him at any time if he had any questions.

After saying this, he left. Lei Lei didn't stay long either. She ran back the same way she came as if she was escaping for her life.

Afterwards, the door repairman arrived as Qian Sen had said, and skillfully repaired the door hinge that was broken by Lei Lei, and said that the money had been paid in advance.

It feels like the master who repaired the door is from the Ninth Department, and he feels like a secret agent.

There was no way. Qian Senming said that someone would be responsible for tracking and monitoring for a period of time. Li Chengxi now saw everyone as an agent.

After the door repairman left, mobile phone and network signals returned to normal, and pedestrians gradually appeared on the road, as if nothing had happened.

But the difference is...

Li Chengxi had just informed Viola that Oldie was with him. He put down the headset and looked up, only to see a pair of silver-blue eyes staring at him.

"Um...are you hungry? I'm down there...no, shall I make you a bowl of noodles?"

Li Chengxi is still not used to having one more person at home, especially since this person is a time traveler.

Oldie nodded, nodded vigorously.

Since the small restaurant next door would not open until tomorrow, and the food Viola had brought today was accidentally spilled, Li Chengxi had no choice but to get up and take two boxes of instant noodles from the shelf, then pick up the electric kettle and go to the restroom in the store to get some water. Aoerdai followed closely behind Li Chengxi like a tail, and when he turned on the faucet, a steady stream of clear water flowed into the kettle, and she let out a small wow.

"What is this? The Endless Kettle?"

"Ah? You mean the faucet?"

Alday nodded again, vigorously.

To be honest, it does look cute.

"This is a switch with a pipe connected to it. Clean water from the water plant will be transported to faraway places through the pipe for use by residents throughout the city."

"Pipes. Metal pipes?"

Alde was surprised:

"So much metal is used to make pipes, and no weapons? The metal production here must be amazing."

"After all, we already have a mature metal industry. Our country's steel production is measured in hundreds of millions of tons."

Alde was stunned for a moment:
“Incredible, unimaginable!”

As he was talking, Li Chengxi finished fetching the water, turned around, put the electric kettle on the socket and turned on the switch.

Just as she turned around to tear off the lid of the instant noodles, Aldea suddenly jumped back two steps:
"What is that magical item of yours? I feel the energy gathering, it could be dangerous. Is it your artifact, the Devil God?"

"Um...you mean the electric kettle?"

"Electric...kettle?"

"It is an appliance that uses electricity as energy to heat water."

"Ohh! As expected of a god, he actually uses the thunder galloping across the sky as energy!"

At this time, there were two beeps outside the convenience store. It should be just a car passing by. But this immediately attracted Alde's attention, and she jumped and lay on the glass door.

As a result, as I got closer to the door, the sensor doorbell rang.

"A magic doorbell? What's that iron box outside? It looks so delicate. Even a dwarf craftsman would have a hard time making such a beautiful finish."

"You mean the car."

"car?"

"It's a very common means of transportation here, and it starts by burning oil."

"Grease as fuel? Then why didn't I see any fire? I just felt like there was an explosion in there."

Li Chengxi recalled the popular science programs he had watched before:

"I remember that the gasoline exploded in the engine, using the force of the explosion to push the piston, which in turn pushed the gear to rotate, and then transmitted it to the drive shaft through the gearbox, and then the car could run."

"Incredible! What kind of structure is that? Does it require no livestock at all?"

"In our city, you hardly see livestock like cows and horses, but there are quite a few dogs and cats."

At this time, the water was boiling. Li Chengxi poured the water into the instant noodle bowl and closed the lid.

Alde, who was leaning on the glass door and looking outside, seemed to smell something and her small nose moved.

"What a nice smell, what is that?"

"I often eat a kind of food called instant noodles, which is convenient."

Alde turned back and circled around the bowl of instant noodles:

"Ooooh! Don't we need to start a fire?"

"No, just add some hot water and wait a few minutes before eating."

"Incredible!"

I always feel that this is the sentence she says most often.
