Chapter 226 – Blessed Magic Arrays
Zhao Hai returned to the Spatial Villa. Laura had stayed behind and was currently sitting in the living room, her mood obviously quite low. Zhao Hai didn't speak and just moved to Laura's side quietly. He placed a hand on her shoulder and sat down to accompany her.
Zhao Hai knew Laura was currently sad. Seeing the home they'd built with their own hands destroyed had given her a strange feeling. Saying anything to comfort her at this time was unnecessary. So long as he silently stayed with her and gave her a shoulder to lean on, it would be enough.
Laura leaned gently against Zhao Hai's shoulder, her tears flowing freely. Faith Mansion wasn't just a simple home, but an enterprise. It had her sweat and tears, and was also the home of her heart.
Holding Laura's hands tightly, Zhao Hai said with a low voice, "Laura, rest assured that we will come back sooner or later. When that time comes, we'll build something grander and more attractive than Faith Mansion."
Laura's tears didn't stop, so Zhao Hai then whispered, "It's alright, don't cry. Crying isn't beautiful. Although you have lost Faith Mansion, you gained the Space and Fort Iron Mountain, and also me. What aren't you satisfied with[]?"
When she heard what Zhao Hai said, Laura smiled through her falling tears. Zhao Hai looked at Laura and said, "Don't cry. If Grandpa Quinn John and the others see this, they might think I'm bullying you. If your father sees this, then it'll be a lot more serious and he might blow up my house."
When she heard his words, Laura wasn't startled but began to smile more than cry. Her tears fell more, but this time around they were tears of joy. Zhao Hai couldn't help but pat his head as he murmured, "Again, Laura, don't you want to go down and have a look at uncle? This time around, the explosion wouldn't be small."
Laura shook her head and smiled. She laughed so much that she couldn't reply to Zhao Hai's words, and Zhao Hai also couldn't help but join in.
Since Karen had taken over the basement of the Spatial Villa and made it his experiment room, an explosion could be heard every other day. Sometimes, they might hear several go off in a row. Zhao Hai and the other had already gotten used to these explosions by now.
Zhao Hai felt a little resentment from it. Karen performed his experiments at random times and sometimes, it happened while Zhao Hai was sleeping. When the explosion occurred, he'd wake up and have a cup.
The Zhao Hai of Earth was an otaku writer. Due to him staying up late in the night, he had a slight nervous breakdown. He'd fall asleep and then wake up in the middle of the night and it would be difficult for him to get back to sleep again. Therefore, when Karen made those explosions, Zhao Hai would take a cup[]. He now thought he wouldn't get any sleep this night too.
He couldn't, however, say anything to Karen and continued to endure it. At the moment, it was better. Even though there would be an explosion at night, he'd just turn over and sleep. One had to admit that a human's ability to adapt to changes was truly amazing.
After some time, Laura stopped laughing. She turned to Zhao Hai and said, "Brother Hai, you haven't dealt with the white-clothed bishop corpses yet. Why not deal with them now?"
Zhao Hai nodded. "Their processing has a been a bit long. Let's go see and you can ask them anything. Moreover, the bodies of those white-clothed bishops should have a lot of good things on them. I just happened to have brought them for you."
Laura smiled and said, "If there is a good magic item, then we might as well give it to father and have him study it. Perhaps we can get something good from them through his research."
