The Master of the Strange Realm
Chapter 461
This is not a requirement at all, this is an order.
Jenkins couldn't talk to them about Julia in detail, so he could only hesitantly say that he already had someone he liked, and it was not the girl from last time.
"It's another one, no, two, no, three. For now, let's not talk about this matter, okay? I'm also very troubled now..."
Jenkins really didn't want to say such embarrassing words if possible. After promising Mary to bring photos of the girls next time, he almost ran away from Privet Drive.
Mary did not blame Jenkins for his "half-heartedness", but kept warning him to get married as soon as possible; on the other hand, her eldest brother Newman slightly blamed Jenkins for his "disloyalty". He was a quite traditional man.
Of course, this reproach quickly disappeared under the mother's stern gaze. In Mary's mind, it seemed that as long as Jenkins could stably marry a girl with an innocent background, then other matters could be discussed.
"Meow~"
Jenkins was frightened, and Chocolate looked unhappy. When I was talking to my mother and brother at home just now, it happened to be the cat's nap time.
It had been sleeping on Jenkins' lap, but it was actually eavesdropping on the conversation between the three of them with its little ears. Now that he learned that human women were invading his territory, the cat fell into deeper troubles.
But it has decided not to interfere with the relationship between Jenkins and those "ants". After all, Jenkins is indeed lonely sometimes, and the generous cat allows him to have some fun occasionally.
"Meow~"
But the cat is the real owner of that home.
Before leaving Privet Drive, Mary also asked Jenkins to go home again soon, and Robert would discuss with him the removal of the grave of "William Lonesome" in the Shire. Now that the new graves of the three brothers' grandparents have been found, Robert plans to move Charles' relative there as well, so that he can also present a bouquet of flowers to him at the end of the year. .

Chapter 1102 Chapter 1084 Louise and Feeney
After leaving Privet Drive, he held an umbrella and headed to the girl Louise's home as planned. As expected, the alley in the rain was still blocked. Although it was not as strict as Tuesday, and the no-passage order on the nearby street was also lifted, all residents in the alley were not allowed to leave until it was finally confirmed that it was safe.
The incubation period of corpse plague is as short as 12 hours and as long as 5 days, which varies slightly depending on each person's constitution. So if Louise wants to go out to sell flowers, she has to wait until at least next Monday, which means that the family's income is actually 0 during this period.
Because of a special pass given by the church, Jenkins was allowed into the alley after his identity was confirmed.
Compared to the streets outside, the alley was eerily deserted. The torrential rain washed away everything here. The door of every house was closed tightly, and there were seals from the city hall and the safety, health and epidemic prevention department on the door.
Only doctors and policemen wearing heavy protective clothing are allowed to walk through the alleys. The latter will deliver a day's worth of food and clean drinking water to each household every morning, and then replace the seals with new ones.
The police officer who led the way quickly led Jenkins to the door of Louise's house. Both of them were holding black umbrellas, so they could not get too close. The policeman wearing a crow's mouth mask knocked on the door. He had to knock hard to drown out the sound of the rain. It felt like it took a long time before he heard the voice coming from inside:
"who is it?"
"When someone comes to visit you, remember, don't say anything you shouldn't say."
After saying this, the policeman bowed slightly to Jenkins with an umbrella, then stepped back about ten steps and stood by the wall waiting for Jenkins' visit to end.
Jenkins nodded to him, and then pushed open the door that had been opened a crack.
Due to its location, Louise's house has poor lighting, and it was a rainy day. The feeling of oppressive darkness immediately came to mind after entering the house.
I glanced to the side and saw an outdated gas lamp on the wall. It seems that this family is unwilling to turn on the lights in order to save some gas bills.
Because he was wearing heavy protective clothing, Jenkins didn't know if there was a strange smell in the house. But at least he knew very well that the owners of the house were not very willing to talk. After walking through the door, the family sitting in a circle around the square wooden table all turned their heads to look at Jenkins like resurrected corpses. , startled him.
"I'm looking for Louise. I have something to discuss with her."
The strange scene made Jenkins a little confused. He opened his eyes of reality but did not see any aura. The recent days of lockdown have caused some psychological problems for the family, but Jenkins has no good solution. He can only hope that they can return to their former self after the lockdown is over.
Although the girl Louise is a lot haggard, at least she is still in good health. The city hall and the health and epidemic prevention department have been distributing free food and water to the residents here these days. Although it is not very delicious, at least it is not a problem for the little girl to eat enough.
The two had a conversation in a bedroom-like room, which was as crudely decorated as the living room outside. Just from the style of the big bed, we can guess that this is the bedroom of the host and hostess. It seems that the economic conditions of this family are worse than Jenkins expected.
"Finito, I say hello to you. You know, she can't leave the church for the time being, so she can only let me come to visit you. She doesn't know what happened to you yet, but don't worry, Louise, I've got it After receiving the news, you can resume your normal life as soon as Monday.”
Jenkins tried to speak in a cheerful tone because he couldn't sit down and talk because of the "gear" he was wearing. But when he was standing, he always felt that the cat on the chest inside the protective suit was sliding down, but because the suit was too thick, Jenkins could not lift the cat up.
"Is Chocolate asleep again? Why doesn't it climb up?"
Jenkins thought in confusion.
"Thank you, sir, and I wish you and Feeney good health."
The girl's lackluster little face finally had a somewhat human look. She looked at Jenkins blankly and whispered:
"Tell Finny that she doesn't have to worry about me. I'm doing fine."
Although she is young, the girl is very sensible. Jenkins was a little curious about how Feeney and Louise met, so he made some inquiries and got a slightly sad story.
Finny and Louise knew each other a long time ago. Feeney's parents weren't dead at that time, and although she was selling flowers on the street, her life was at least slightly easier than when Jenkins met her.
The two little girls met for the first time, also on a rainy day in spring. Louise, who had just come to sell flowers on the street, was overwhelmed by the teasing and making things difficult for her customers.
She stood on the street confused and scared, while the middle-aged woman holding an umbrella said some vulgar words in front of her.
The despair and sorrow of the little girl at that time can be imagined, but at this moment, Louise's arm was held by the person behind her, and then she was led by a small amount of strength to run towards the alley next to her.
"This is the first time I met Fini. Although she is only 11 months older than me, Fini really helped me a lot."
The teenage girl said, then bravely raised her head and looked at Jenkins:
"Sir, maybe you will think that I envy Fini's current life, but that's not the case; she deserves this. A kind person like her deserves such a life. Fini is a kind girl, please be nice to her. Some......"
Louise seems to have misunderstood the relationship between Jenkins and Feeney.
"I am Feini's friend, and I am also the person who stands behind her and is protected by her shadow. I hope sister Feini is healthy. Sir, please do not tell her what is going on here..."
The hard life makes these children more mature and sensible. When he said goodbye to Louise's family, Jenkins felt a little heavy inside. He sincerely wants to help those in need, but there are too many people in this world who need help.
The power of an individual is really weak. To change the times and even the world, stronger power is needed.
When I came out of the alley, I had already changed out of my heavy protective clothing, and my wet clothes were exposed to the rain again. In such windy and rainy weather, umbrellas are of little use.
"Hathaway and Britney have probably sent their replies back, let's go home."
He decided in his mind that he would have more time to see Louise in the future, and then said this to the cat who was hiding in his clothes to avoid the rain. The cat would naturally not have any objection.
Chapter 1103 Chapter 1085 Fire Crows in the Rain
On the way back, Jenkins also joked that Chocolate hates water and bathing, but does not hate liquid food. This is a very interesting phenomenon.
Perhaps because he understood the word "bath", the cat suddenly became active and kept squirming on its chest.
Jenkins could only temporarily stop under the awning of a nearby store, put the umbrella aside, and then used both hands to control the stray cat.
The rain that lasted for a day showed no signs of letting up, and Jenkins was already soaked. Although he could use the fire to dry it, he would have to continue his journey soon, so there was no point in doing so.
After finally comforting Chocolate, he was about to pick up the umbrella and continue walking home when he suddenly heard a strange noise in the distance.
It sounded like an explosion, but because the pouring rain covered up most of the sound, he wasn't sure if it was an illusion.
After hesitating for a moment, he raised his head and opened his eyes and looked around. Although there was a thin spiritual light swaying in the rain, judging from the distance, it was several miles away, and it should not be the source of the strange noise just now.
"That's strange. Did I really hear it wrong?"
He murmured in a low voice and wanted to continue walking home with the cat acting coquettishly in his arms.
The cat, half of its face pressed against Jenkins' chest, opened one eye and raised its paw to scratch its cheek.
"Meow~"
It quickly jumped up to Jenkins' shoulder, squatted there and raised his head to look towards the sky. Even if the cat climbed up on his shoulders, its little head was not as high as Jenkins' eyes, so this angle allowed Jenkins to see its clear and innocent big amber eyes.
"Damn it, how could I ever think of a cat's eyes as 'clear and innocent'?"
Jenkins shook his head suddenly, feeling that when he looked into the chocolate eyes just now, he seemed to have seen something terrible.
But this feeling was quickly forgotten, because when Jenkins raised his head and followed the cat's gaze to the sky, he actually saw dots of fiery red things flying in the clouds.
"What it is?"
The monocle appeared silently in his eye socket, and the Eye of Truth helped Jenkins see the blue aura group in the shape of a crow. Every crow has a blue aura, but it is very weak. Not to mention compared with those powerful alien species, even the lost butterfly has stronger aura than them.
"What is it?"
Jenkins was wondering when he suddenly found that the crows gathered together, and then the blue aura gradually gathered towards the center, and an orange-yellow fireball suddenly appeared in the sky.
"Huh?"
Boom~
The fireball summoned by the crows was thrown directly to the ground, but not in the direction of Jenkins. But he could confirm that this was the sound he had just heard.
The sound of rain covered the sound of the fireball falling to the ground, but this did not mean that the falling fireball was just an illusion.
"What is going on?"
The direction where the fireball fell to the ground was the direction where the thin aura was seen just now. Jenkins looked over there with his glasses and found that it was the combat team of the [Ocean and Exploration Church], and Jenkins knew some of them.
"The one in the sky is the enemy~"
He made it clear.
The gifted have the ability to fly, which can be seen from the performance of Alexia, Hathaway and Miss Befanna.
But not all gifted have the ability to fly, and everyone is fair in this regard. According to Jenkins' understanding, most gifted with the ability to fly are above level 7, and there is no learnable ability that can make people fly below level 7. If you want to learn to fly, you can only understand your ability through unique perception like Hathaway.
Therefore, even if the position of the group of fire crows in the sky is not high, the people on the ground still cannot cause an effective offensive against them.
At least before the church's gifted with the ability to fly comes, they can only dodge on the ground.
"It's raining. A group of fire-breathing crows are flying in the sky. Today is really interesting."
Jenkins looked up at the sky and muttered to himself. He hesitated in the direction of home and chose another way.
He came all the way to the big bell tower in the city, burned the door lock under the bell tower with fire, and then went to the top floor along the dusty stairs. Pushing the trap door open, he finally came to the highest point of the city.
He didn't plan to summon the unicorn. After all, he had to date the girls soon. If he made too much noise now, it would be bad if he delayed his trip.
The rain quickly soaked Jenkins. He first looked at the cat hiding in the bell tower and refused to come out, then raised his head slightly to look at the group of fire crows coming in and out.
They obviously didn't find Jenkins and were still flying and fighting with the group of people on the ground. I don't know if there was a limit on the flying height, but the crows never flew above the clouds.
"Twins..."
As Jenkins called, a shadow with black gas appeared behind him. But this time, the black demon shadow did not take shape directly, but kept changing behind him like plasticine.
Last week, I borrowed Dolores' chess piece. The ice archer summoned at that time gave Jenkins a different experience of [Twin Demons].
[Twin Demons] also summoned phantoms that were close to the essence of the user, but they must have the attributes of demon fire, which is similar to [Frozen Archer Chess]. In the past, Jenkins was not very strong, and he had not carefully experienced the feeling of his own power affecting his abilities.
But now he is strong enough. After the enlightenment of the Frozen Archer Chess, this time he can just try the power of [Twin Demons].
"My soul is essentially life."
As this thought came, the breath of life flowed into the shadow behind him, and the hideous demon phantom immediately had an equally illusory vine armor on his body.
"Then there is death. Although I don't want to admit it, Mr. Augustus is right. Maybe I am really close to death. After all, both my body and soul have experienced death."
The decaying gray stream merged from the shadow under his feet into the phantom behind him. The image of the demon did not change much, but Jenkins felt that the power of the plague seemed to be integrated into it.
"Then there is the machinery. Although I don't understand what happened, the power of the gear machinery also appeared when I used the Frozen Archer Chess last time. Could it be that the power of the machinery represents the first half of my life, the life called Jenkins? But why is it steam instead of electricity?"
The dazzling silver-blue light flashed at the heart of the demon's shadow, and the constantly beating light was like the last warning when the steam bomb was about to explode.
PS: The chapter number of the previous chapter was wrong and has been modified. Sorry, there are important exams recently, and time is very tight, so there are many typos and typos (covering face).
Chapter 1104 Chapter 1086 Nightlife
Jenkins held the lightning rod on the top of the tower and looked at the fire crows in the sky in the rain. In the pouring rain, there were not many pedestrians in the city, but the fireballs from the sky still caused a small disturbance.
Looking down at the ants-sized mortals on the ground from a high place, a sense of loneliness arises spontaneously, followed by contempt and indifference for mortals.
"Oh, what am I thinking?"
Jenkins quickly got rid of that strange emotion. His strength increased too quickly and he almost lost his mind. But fortunately, the stranger had seen too many things in the first 20 years of his life. This little mental imbalance was nothing at all.
"...Devil!"
He finally summoned the twin demons completely. As the command was issued, the hideous shadow behind him shot straight into the sky from the top of the clock tower like a cannonball.
Although the demons used this ability in the past to walk along the ground, the essence of the ability seems to be high-speed movement, not restricted by terrain.
The black shadow that rushed out of the rain did not attract anyone's attention at first. But with the demon's roar that was enough to pollute the mind, Fire Crow still noticed the strange shadow flying from below.
