Age of Mysticism

  Chapter 368 Prey (6000 plus more)

  Rebecca, who has always been carefree, is like a shy kitten at this time. Now her appearance is too easy for people to imagine. She wanted to tidy up the skirts on her body, but because the buttons were buttoned wrong, no matter how she did it, they were crooked.

   "Mr. Luke..." Rebecca had no choice but to stand up and said to Luke: "You have visitors, so I will go home first, thank you again."

  Luke closed the door: "You are injured, I will take you back later, Miss Dalikova will not stay here for too long."

  Darikova pulled Rebecca to sit down: "I will leave soon. I ran out secretly, and I can't leave the post for too long.

  Mr. Luke, how do you know my name? I don't seem to have told you my name. "

  Luke put the cake on the table, and then sat down opposite the two ladies: "Chief Helkkin called your name before, I only heard it once, I hope you didn't make a mistake."

  Darikova thought about it for a while, and it seems that Helkkin did call her name.

   "You can pronounce my name after just one listen. It seems that I have already left a certain impression on Mr. Luke's heart." Dalikova looked at Luke, her eyes seemed to be able to speak. She is very confident in her appearance, especially those beautiful blue eyes, which can easily make men fall into her gaze.

  Luke pointed to his head: "Those of us who engage in scientific research have a brain that is better than ordinary people, and quick memory is a necessary skill for memorizing formulas.

  I don’t have as good coffee as your ice cave here. There are only some teas that I like to drink. Would you like some? "

   Being left to drink tea, Dalikova thought she had taken the first step smoothly.

   "Of course I want a drink."

   Luke said to Rebecca, "Go to the kitchen and make us a pot of tea, it's on the third shelf of the cupboard."

  Hearing that Luke asked her to make tea, Rebecca was as relaxed as if she had been amnesty, and ran to the kitchen with a promise.

Darikova waited for Rebecca to leave, and said to Luke: "Actually, I also like drinking tea very much. Especially after a busy day's work, I make a cup of tea and soak the whole person in the bathtub. I will also Sprinkle some petals in the water and imagine that you are soaking in the tea soup.

   Isn’t that funny? "

  Darikova casually guided Luke to fantasize about the scene she described, and the **** picture could make impulse overcome reason.

"No, I think that looks beautiful." Luke, who knew Darikova's real background, followed her desired result and said, "Just now you said you were leaving the ice cave, and you seemed to be very dissatisfied with the work in the ice cave. "

   Sure enough, Darikova immediately showed a regretful expression.

  “My father was a factory owner, and my mother passed away very early. My father always wanted to train me to be a lady like my mother, and then marry a factory owner to spend my life happily.

   But, you know girls are rebellious a while back.

  I couldn’t stand the restraint my father gave me, and chose to live an exciting life, so I signed up for the Ice Cave Agent Training Camp without telling him, and successfully became an Ice Cave Agent.

  But the life of an agent is far different from what I imagined. The boring copywriting work day after day made me realize what a boring life is; those dirty things let me know the darkness of the world.

  The only thing that kept me going was Enoch.

  I love him, we were originally planning to get married next month... But, in fact, I have already prepared for this kind of heart, after all, he is engaged in the most dangerous job, but I didn't expect this day to come so soon..."

Dalikova couldn't help choking up as she spoke, tears rolled down her eyes, and she stroked the ring on her left ring finger: "I'm sorry, Mr. Luke. I treated you like that because I couldn't help losing his love." Emotions... thoughts of him go to my head."

  Darikova raised her head and looked at Luke again. Her watery blue eyes were full of regret and longing, which perfectly interpreted that women are made of water, and no man can resist their weakness and steadfastness in love.

  And for men, a woman who has just lost her lover is the best time to conquer, and can greatly satisfy the man's possessive desire.

  High-end hunters often disguise themselves as prey.

   Luke looked at Dalikova at this time, and said in his heart: Look at what is professional, this TM is professional!

  Should have sent Shelley and Pisco to Ice Cave Training Camp to learn.

  However, this play still needs to be played in cooperation. After all, Dalikova is now an ordinary civilian in the ice cave, and I don't know that she is the ace agent.

   "I'm sorry..." Luke showed his acting skills: "I didn't expect you to have such a relationship with Agent Enoch, and I deeply regret what happened to Agent Enoch.

   After a short conversation with him, it can be seen that he is a very responsible person, but the profession he is engaged in is too dangerous. "

  Luke took out a hand towel and handed it to Darikova in a gentlemanly manner.

Dalikova wiped her tears, and her expression became melancholy: "Yeah, it's all because of this **** war! My father has persuaded me to resign from the ice cave many times. Now that Enoch is gone, I will not stay there any longer. reason.

   It's just... uh..."

  Darikova took a long breath in the middle of her speech and did not continue.

   As a qualified listener, Luke asked very politely: "Just what?"

   "I am a civil servant. Although my position is not important, I still have access to some secrets. Ice Cave will not let me leave easily.

  I can only hope that my father's contacts can play a role. "

  Darikova threw another bait.

  A woman who complains about the war, is alienated from the ice cave, and can get in touch with some secrets who just lost her lover.

   Simply the favorite prey of hostile intelligence agents.

  At this time, Rebecca came out with a tray containing tea sets. In the kitchen, she tidied up her clothes, but her expression was still a little reserved.

  Pour steaming hot tea into the cup.

Luke picked up a cup, invited Dalikova to drink tea, and said at the same time: "Although I haven't been here for a long time, I know that the ice cave has a bad reputation in the Art County United. It's because other departments don't want to do it." Do the dirty work, and bear the infamy that other departments don't want to bear.

  A well-educated and beautiful girl should not work in the ice cave. Fortunately, at your young age, you have the opportunity to correct the mistakes you made. It's just that I don't have any contacts in Dongdong. Even if I want to help you, I'm afraid I can't do much. "

Dalikova touched the teacup with her "well-behaved" hands to drink tea, and when she heard that Luke had a heart to help her, she immediately said: "No, Mr. Luke, please don't underestimate yourself. You are now a fourth-level member of the Society of Steam Engineers Members, even Hulkkin, the head of the Ice Cave, respects you.

  And you are also favored by the editor-in-chief of "Steam Weekly" Molson. If you can speak for me, you will definitely let me leave the ice cave smoothly.

  Of course, I dare not bother you, let my father figure out a way. "

  Darikova didn't stick to Luke immediately. The most taboo of fishing is to use too much force. Only when there is tension and relaxation can the final harvest be obtained.

  Talking about the fourth-level member of the Society of Steam Engineers, Luke revealed the arrogance of a young boy under the gaze of beauty worship.

   "Winter is worthy of being the sacred place in the hearts of all steam engineers in the world. I left my hometown and came here alone across the ocean, just to show my talent here.

   Facts proved how correct my choice was. In less than two months, I became a fourth-level member of the Society of Steam Engineers, and Master Molson wrote articles for me.

  He also promised that as long as I complete the development of the water molecule two-phase steam engine, he will recommend me to become an alternate member of the Society of Steam Engineers at the fifth level. "

  Darikova stared wide-eyed, with a dumb expression.

   This is not her faking, she is really frightened by the information Luke revealed.

  Darikova only knew that Luke had changed from a first-level member of the Society of Steam Engineers to a fourth-level member, and didn't know what happened in the middle.

  It is an honor for the editor-in-chief Molson, who has not written for three years, to personally write an article for it!

  What is the two-phase steam engine of water molecules? Is it a secret that the chief executive cannot listen to?

   After completing the development of this new type of steam engine, the editor-in-chief Molsson will protect the candidate who has been promoted to the fifth-level member of the Society of Steam Engineers... Given his age, doesn't it mean that he must be a fifth-level member in the future?

  Me, what am I doing?

  Darikova couldn't help denying her intuitive judgment about Luke. If a steam engineer of this level is a spy sent by the enemy country, how big is the heart of the enemy country!

  If Luke knew the real purpose of my coming to him, Helkkin would put his own life on it and he wouldn't be able to keep me.

   "Mr. Luke, you...you are such a genius, it is an honor to meet you."

"Genius? This word, I have heard too much these days." Luke looked at Dalikova, like a man who was successfully attracted to her: "If someone makes things difficult for you because of your resignation, yours Father can't handle it again, so you come to me.

   Ice caves are not for you. "

   "Okay, okay." Dalikova, who was in a panic, avoided Luke's gaze. She didn't expect to catch a deadly great white shark during this fishing trip. Dalikova hurriedly put down her teacup and stood up: "The tea is very delicious, Mr. Luke. I should go back. If I am found to have left my post without authorization, I will be punished."

   "Leave so soon?" Luke stood up and sent Darikova: "I express my deep condolences for the deceased Enoch agent, and I hope you can quickly get out of the emotional haze.

  Believe that after you leave the ice cave, a new life will make everything better.

  You are always welcome here, you can tell me anything you have, I will be a very good listener. "

   "Thank you for your hospitality, please stay... There is a lady who needs your attention."

  Darikova tried her best to remain calm, and then hurried away.

   Watching Darikova disappear around the corner of the corridor outside the apartment, Luke sneered and closed the door.

  After turning around, I saw Rebecca standing there with the same shocked look.

   "First, sir... have you really become a fourth-class member of the Society of Steam Engineers?"

  Luke sat back in his seat again. He opened the cake box, and inside were six beautifully made chocolate cakes, decorated with a few large strawberries and some colored sugar.

"If I wasn't a fourth-level member of the Society of Steam Engineers, how could the ice cave release you so easily." Luke picked up a piece of cake and took a bite. The aroma of thick fresh milk made him admire: "Very good Eat! Come and taste it too, it's really delicious."

"Fannie's Cake House is very famous in winter, and it's not something that anyone can buy casually." Darikova's departure made Rebecca feel a lot easier. She picked up a piece of cake and ate it, still feeling emotional Said: "Sir, you have been promoted to a fourth-level member of the steam engineer, I still think I heard it wrong.

  Ms. Yolanda, the director of the company's steam technology department, is also a fourth-level member. Aren't you on the same level as her? "

   Luke ate the cake and said: "In the Society of Steam Engineers, we are at the same level. But in the company, Mrs. Yolanda is still my superior."

  Rebecca immediately said: "I understand, Mr. Luke. I will not cause trouble for you in the company because of my relationship with you.

  I will work harder than before. "

   "It's good that you understand. After returning to work, try to keep a low profile and don't talk to anyone about the disappearance of Norton and Harry."

"Yes, sir!"

  Luke finished the cake in his hand: "Okay, I'm full! Pack up the rest and take it home for your family to eat."

  Rebecca froze for a moment: "Sir, this is given to you by Miss Dalikova. I am satisfied if I can eat one... This kind of cake is very expensive."

  Luke said: "I want to eat this kind of cake, and I can buy it anytime. Your family must be in a hurry these days, so I'll give it to them."

  Rebecca had to say: "Thank you, sir."

   "Is the injury on your body better?"

   "It's much better, sir, the medicine you gave me is very effective."

   Luke patted the cake crumbs on his hands, stood up and said to Rebecca, "Clean up this place, I'll make some potions for you, and I'll send you back when I'm done."

"Yes, sir."

  …

   While Luke was sending Rebecca home, Dalikova returned to the headquarters of the ice cave and reported to Helkin in the chief's office how she met Luke.

  When he heard that the water molecule two-phase steam engine, and that editor-in-chief Molson would push Luke to become an alternate fifth-level member of the Society of Steam Engineers, his expression also looked like he had seen a ghost.

   "It's true that the editor-in-chief Molson will write a column for Luke himself.

  But about the water molecule dual-phase steam engine and the fifth-level alternate member, are you sure what Luke said is true? "

  Darikova said with a bitter smile: "I am afraid that this can only be confirmed by asking the editor-in-chief Molson."

  Helkkin thought for a while: "I remember that in the last issue of "Steam Weekly", there was a paper related to the 'Dual Phase of Water Molecules'.

   See Steam Weekly on the bookcase? Take the one on the far right. "

  Darikova followed Helkkin's pointing, and saw the "Steam Weekly" placed in the bookcase, full of orderly rows.

  Helke King is indeed a loyal reader of "Steam Weekly", he has every issue and reads every issue.

  Darikova brought the last issue of "Steam Weekly" for Helkkin

   "Here..." Helkkin found the paper he was looking for, and then fell into reading with all his heart.

  The way Helkkin reads does not match his temperament.

  Darikova waited anxiously, passing every minute and every second, and she didn't dare to disturb the chief who was reading carefully.

   After finally waiting for Helkkin to read the entire paper, Darikova immediately asked: "My lord, what did you find?"

  Helke King couldn't help but let out a sigh of emotion: "If the dual-phase property of water molecules can really be used to create a steam engine, Luke is definitely a genius among geniuses in steam technology!"

  Darikova asked: "My lord, what is the water molecule two-phase steam engine?"

"Usually let you read more books, don't just be clever and don't listen to me!" Helkkin reprimanded his subordinates, and then explained to Dalikova what is the second part of water molecules like showing off his knowledge. Compatibility: "...the author of this thesis under the pseudonym 'Steam Enthusiast' should be Mr. Luke.

  In his article, he proposed to use the two different phases of water molecules to heat energy, and to achieve the purpose of generating air pressure difference through the conduction and circulation of heat energy inside water molecules. If it can be realized, it will greatly improve the utilization rate of heat energy and make a breakthrough in steam technology. "

  Darikova blinked her big blue eyes and asked: "The thermal phase and weak thermal phase of water molecules...doesn't seem to be much difference?"

   "Read more! Read more!" Helkkin hated iron and steel: "You have wasted such a good opportunity to learn about the duality of water molecules from Mr. Luke."

"I'm sorry, Mr. President, your profound knowledge is beyond our reach." Dalikova said aggrievedly: "Then... Luke is responsible for the development of the water molecule two-phase steam engine, and the editor-in-chief Molsson will recommend him to become a steam engine. Alternate Fifth Class Member of the Institution of Engineers, is that true?"

   "If the long talk between Luke and Molson is about the development of the water molecule two-phase steam engine, and there are breakthrough technologies, he deserves to be promoted from a first-level member to a fourth-level member.

  The new steam engine can only be developed by him.

  As for the alternate fifth-level member... It should be the editor-in-chief Molson's love for his talent that made this high promise. "

  Getting an affirmative answer, Darikova asked again: "Have you checked Luke yet?"

   "Do you think such a genius steam engineer who can bring breakthroughs in steam technology is a spy sent by the enemy country?"

   "No! Such a talent should be well protected in the laboratory."

   "It seems that we were overthinking. Enoch didn't catch Luke, so he should have dispelled his suspicion. It was just a coincidence that he was attacked on the way back.

  Occupational diseases bring us all close to making serious mistakes. "

  Darikova also let out a sober breath: "Fortunately, I found it in time, otherwise I don't know how it will end."

"Let's end the investigation of Luke like this. There is news from the underground steam city that the underground rebel army has attacked a mine... I really don't know what the agent in charge is doing. It has been so long that even a group of miners who have no combat effectiveness Can't do it."

  Darikova immediately said: "My lord, leave this case to me. I promise to make these gangsters disappear."

   "You?" Helkkin looked at Dalikova who requested the task, and then said, "Pack up your personal items and go through the resignation procedures."

  Darikova was stunned: "Resign? Mr. President, do you have another special task for me?"

   "No! Since you told Mr. Luke that you want to leave, in order to prevent him from finding out that you are deceiving him, I can only reluctantly let you leave."

  Darikova said in disbelief: "My lord, I am your ace agent, and I have made countless contributions to the ice cave.

  You can't just send me away like that. "

"What about Kingsman? If you reach the limit, that's my position, and I have no room for improvement. And Luke...maybe in a few years, he will really step on my head, this is Reality.

  Darikova, you have been on so many dangerous missions, you should know what docking stop loss is.

  Don't worry, go, in Luke's eyes, you are a retired Ice Cave agent civilian. For my own sake, I will not send someone to kill you..."

  When Dalikova walked out of the ice cave headquarters holding the box containing her personal belongings, the sound of the door closing behind her made her shiver involuntarily as if she was sleepwalking.

   It was snowing again, and she had never felt so cold outside.

  She never thought that she, who was at ease in the ice cave, would be kicked out one day.

   Still in this way.

   It's really ironic that there are no agents who chased and killed him!

  What will you do next?

  The resume of an agent in the ice cave will not add color to his job application, and besides stealing secrets and killing people, he seems to know nothing.

  Darikova suddenly understood how well-intentioned Chief Hulkkin has been emphasizing "reading and studying".

  I don’t have a father who is a factory owner to turn to. If I don’t want to find a job washing dishes, I can only go to the underground steam city to be a lower-level thief.

  How did things develop like this?

  Water molecule two-phase steam engine so powerful?

  Darikova was walking in the snow with a box in her arms.

  Luke didn't know what he said, which made Helking decisively throw away the car to save the handsome man. It's just that after sending Rebecca away and returning home, he found that all the ice cave agents who were monitoring him had withdrawn.

  Everything is back to normal.

  The next day, Luke was summoned by Elvis, the owner of Harut Heavy Industries. Immediately afterwards, Harut Heavy Industries announced the establishment of a water molecule two-phase steam engine development laboratory, and Luke was solely responsible for the development of the new steam engine.

  All the manpower and material resources of the company are devoted to the development of new steam engines, and strive to develop new steam engines as soon as possible to be used in the war against the Golden Shield Empire.

  Luke entered the field of vision of mainstream society in Winter Capital along with the water molecule two-phase steam engine, from an unknown steam engineer to a genius among everyone.

  With the release of the new issue of "Steam Weekly", the editor-in-chief Molson personally wrote a long column for Luke, which once again pushed Luke's reputation to a whole new level.

  Luke has become a household name in Dongdu. Almost everyone can talk about the principle of the two-phase steam engine of water molecules, and how the steam technology will be changed once the new steam engine appears.

   As the center of public opinion, Luke continued to be busy checking the underground steam pipes, without the slightest awareness of becoming a city star.

  Give the company's top management a sense of being down-to-earth and hardworking.
