Exposed?
Not necessarily.
Han Dong was confident that there was absolutely no issue with his ‘work report’.
As for ‘disguise’, it was even less likely to be a problem.
After all, even the doctor himself could hardly distinguish between real and fake. When he saw Han Dong disguised as himself, he was so shocked that he couldn’t speak.
If the ‘Faceless Skull’ were to be traced back, it seemed to be related to an Old King, and naturally, it was at a level far above a Lord.
Han Dong steadied his mentality, maintained a calm expression, and with his writhing tentacles, moved towards the Great Lord’s massive stone seat.
The distance was closing in.
The details of the Great Lord became clearer.
The layer of bone covering his body was terrifyingly dense.
Such a defensive layer was difficult to shatter head-on.
When fighting with the Great Lord, one must seek the gaps in the bone layer or spots not covered by the bone layer to attack, or it would be hard to injure him.
Besides.
Underneath the white hair, there was a face as old and predatory as a beast, and the yellow beans-sized pupils stared fixedly at Han Dong.
Clack clack clack…
The gears embedded in his spine began to spin, the machinery-assisted device pushing the Great Lord to lean forward.
The horrifying face was right up against Han Dong’s, less than a finger’s distance apart.
This kind of oppressive face-to-face stare would certainly cause even an experienced Apprentice Knight to make some small movements.
But Han Dong, who had seen all kinds of upper crust figures, even spied on the Yellow Robe Being, and had a face-to-face confrontation with Captain Kaimon, was completely unfazed.
He adopted the manner a servant should have, bowing his head slightly and quietly listening to the orders of the Lord.
“How is the recent output of the [Maternal Body]?”
“All indicators are normal, the selection rate of high-quality ghouls is always above the qualified line, and there has not been any unstable situation.”
The Great Lord seemed to breathe a sigh of relief.
Click clack clack… The gear-assisted body moved back, resting on the stone chair.
“Alright…both of you go up and make food. The taste is pretty good. The long-lost feeling of hunger has come again.
As for the [Ghoul Factory], as long as human intruders don’t enter into the main production room then it’s fine… I approve you to call for two Family Executives to ensure the safety of the production room.”
“Thank you, Great Lord.”
From this conversation, Han Dong picked up on some fine details, a faint smile flashing past.
Just like that, the first meeting with the Great Lord passed uneventfully.
He left the main hall together with Barbara, taking the elevator.
After subsequently returning to Barbara’s room.
Han Dong used up some energy, excreting a large bottle of mycelium through his right arm.
Barbara only needed to add the mycelium in an appropriate proportion during the food production process, she did not need Han Dong’s assistance… this amount of mycelium was enough to make several days’ worth of food.
Just as Han Dong was about to leave.
Thunk!
A force acted on Han Dong’s body and pushed him down on the soft big bed.
Greasy contact.
Lady Barbara directly pressed herself against Han Dong’s body, reaching out to caress his swollen head.
“Thank you so much today… Doctor! Let me show you my gratitude.”
Although Barbara’s outer shell was indeed not bad, it was too greasy.
Just by pressed up against Han Dong like this, the oozing oil soaked his entire clothes, a bit too extreme for anyone’s taste.
“Wait a second! I didn’t bring ‘something’ today … Also, the factory still needs my supervision, let’s do it next time.”
Seeing that Han Dong didn’t appreciate her.
Barbara naturally also lost interest, “I might not feel like it next time. But, I still have to thank you today… If the factory invasion situation gets serious, I can come down to help you.”
“Thank you.”
After he left the oily room, a sensation of freshness swept over him unlike he had ever felt before… After this experience, Han Dong would probably not want to touch meaty food for several days.
When he quietly returned to the blacksmith’s room.
Miss Winry was still sound asleep in bed, snoring continuously.
Due to the strong fragrance of grease emitted by Han Dong, the entire room was filled with this aroma.
In her profound sleep, Winry stopped snoring shortly, saliva dribbling from the corner of her mouth, she muttered something in her dream: “So delicious!”
Soaking in the bath, Han Dong recalled the desolate appearance of the top floor’s ‘family area’, the sickly state of the Great Lord, and the level of concern for the [Maternal Body].
“The Maternal Body… its position in the grand estate is higher than I imagined. However, this does not affect the progression of my plans. As long as Mia succeeds.”
The success relies on tomorrow.”
When Han Dong discarded his greasy clothes and climbed back into the large bed.
Perhaps it was due to the slight sway of the bed or the grease that had seeped into the skin and couldn’t be washed away.
In her dream, Winry seemed to treat Han Dong like a delicious roasted chicken leg. She slowly moved her body closer, hugged him tightly, and even draped her thighs over him…
“So heavy…”
Han Dong tried to move, but Winry held him even tighter… If he moved again, it was likely that Winry would bite him.
“Forget it, just sleep.”
Using the fungal layer within his body as a support band, Han Dong gradually accustomed himself to Winry’s weight and fell asleep like this.
The next day.
Which was the fourth day of intensive training.
Though no sunlight would shine through the window, Winry’s internal clock woke her up on time.
Her head was entirely leaned on Han Dong’s shoulder, and there was even a puddle of saliva in his shoulder hollow.
Not only that, but Winry’s arms were tightly around Han Dong, and her legs were tightly clamped around him.
An unfamiliar meaty aroma floated in the air.
Unfortunately.
Han Dong happened to wake up at this moment, and when he opened his eyes, he met Winry’s gaze.
For a moment, Winry’s cheeks blushed as red as her hair…
About ten minutes passed.
With her face flushed, Winry squatted in the corner, organizing her giant backpack, entirely afraid to converse with Han Dong.
As for Han Dong, he was sitting by the bed with closed eyes, recovering.
He seemed to be pondering some issues and didn’t have the need to move momentarily.
After continuing to wait for a while, Winry couldn’t help but ask red-faced: “Vice…Vice captain, when will we depart? My things are ready.”
“No rush… it’s not time yet.”
“Oh…”
Winry sat quietly on the bed, nibbling on a piece of beef jerky by herself.
Han Dong was actually waiting for a ‘turbulent’ moment.
The ‘Castle District’ had been completely opened yesterday, and some elite squads had already conducted a preliminary exploration of the lower area of the castle, even killing executives and obtaining keys.
They would surely proceed with a more in-depth exploration today.
The Castle District would be fully at war.
Boom…
The loud noise accompanied by intense trembling seemed to affect the foundation.
A large number of footsteps resounded in the corridor.
A large number of guards and startled family executives rushed to the lower area of the castle to check the situation.
Han Dong was also startled by this violent shaking.
You have to know the entire castle covers an extremely vast area, to shake it there must be a huge disturbance.
When the footsteps in the corridor gradually faded.
Han Dong stood up.
“Winry, let’s go!”
