Civilization: Beyond Two Worlds

198 Stuffed to Death

The breeze arrived and the world was silent. The dark clouds that enveloped the sky were forcefully dispersed by the elf mages, allowing the sun to cast light and illuminate the ground, making today look like an ordinary and peaceful day.

This was sincerity. It meant that “today was originally a black cloud pressing down on the city, but when Prince Kang De arrived, the weather was clear”.

It was also a demonstration. Manipulating an unpredictable phenomenon was a shocking and awe-inspiring power.

In the middle of Valentine and the elf military camp, in a place where it was difficult for both sides to shoot weapons, the terrifying logistics system of the elves had already prepared a banquet.

They were actually all Cathayan dishes. At the very least, they looked that way. Round table, bowls, chopsticks, cups, and cups were all combined, so much so that the dishes on the table were also cold, hot, and vegetarian. They looked decent.

There were two elf mages standing at the side. One of them used his magic power to isolate the outside world and lock the water, and the other used his magic power to maintain the temperature and ensure the taste of the dishes. The leader of the Twilight Army stood at the front, and his majestic figure faced Valentine City, which was filled with soldiers. More than ten high-level officers stood around him, and more than a hundred elf elites were wearing etiquette armor and holding flags and weapons. They looked mighty and extraordinary.

The adjutant accompanied the main general. From the corner of his eye, he saw more than 200 elf soldiers present, and worry flashed across his face, “Lord, we have so many soldiers here. Will Kang De dare to come?”

The commander said indifferently, “It’s precisely because the soldiers are all lined up openly that the other party believes that we won’t play any tricks… If I’m the only one waiting here, he won’t dare to come.”

“Moreover, the more dangerous such a place is filled with enemies and knives and spears, the more it can arouse the competitiveness and pride of such young humans. The Cathayans like such a place. If they go to the enemy camp alone, the enemy will set up a pot of oil. The brave ones will not change their expressions and go straight in. Only then can they show their courage and ability. Heh.”

He revealed a mocking smile. “In the words of the Cathayan, I’m pleasing him.”

The adjutant also smiled when he heard this, “Then you have to argue with the other party according to the custom of the Cathayans?”

The commander sneered, “What’s there to argue about? I got the logistics department to spend the effort to make such a table of Cathayan dishes and placed the soldiers in front of him to numb him and make him think that I’m scaring him so that he’ll lower his guard. The information of Glory Sand Town shows that this person is ruthless, decisive, meticulous, and has many methods. To deal with such a person, we have to seize the initiative and be merciless.”

His expression did not change, and there was a trace of ferociousness in his words, “At the moment before we shake hands, I’ll suddenly attack and take him down cleanly with the cooperation of the others. I’m not interested in sitting with a human and taking food from the same bowl and plate, let alone listening to the shallow and boring conversation of humans. Even if I want to say a few words to him, I have to wait for him to lie in the cage.”

The adjutant nodded gently. “Yes, humans are stupid and shallow to begin with. His grandfather is probably not even as old as your son… Their lives are really too short, so their thoughts are so shallow and boring.”

The commander did not answer. He looked into the distance and said indifferently, “He left the city.”

The adjutant was shocked, then took the binoculars and looked. “Alone?”

“That’s right. He didn’t even bring that terrifying alchemical giant.” The commander revealed a mocking expression, “What an understanding young man. He’s extremely cute.”

At this moment, the cute young man who had left the city was talking.

“Nonsense, why should I eat with the elves? Isn’t it boring to sit with this group of b*stards?”

“It’s rare for them to gather together. Tsk, tsk, tsk. Not only are there soldiers, but they’re also all in the open. Even the axemen have to ambush under the tent. Don’t you know this common sense?”

“Cut the crap. Look at how eager they are to prepare. They must have evil intentions. No matter what they plan, they have to welcome them and say a few polite words, right? I insist on a sudden attack. They won’t even speak and will only meet. I’ll send you a signal when the distance between the two sides is not too far and not too close, then disappear on the spot.”

“They must be dumbfounded. Then you’ll bomb their mothers. I’ll make them explode without saying a word to them.”

“Oh, right. Remember to tell Nick that this attack has to have a good reason. Don’t say that I teleported back myself. Just say that the evil elves have a vicious plan and used spatial spells to exile me to another dimension. They murdered the great Prince Kang De. You have to avenge me.”

After Kang De was almost done explaining, he rode the confident car in the direction of the Hongmen Banquet.

Behind him, in Valentine City, countless eyes watched this figure.

For some reason, Kang De recalled the picture of the successful atomic bomb test, the researchers raising their arms in the distance and cheering, and Einstein riding his bicycle back in secret, although it was most likely photoshopped.

“He’s here… Hmm? Wait.”

A thought flashed through the commander’s mind. He took the binoculars and first looked at Kang De, who was slowly riding over, then at Valentine City. A cold smile appeared on his lips.

“No wonder…”

He lowered his voice, “Inform the officers that no one is allowed to attack without my orders. Suppress your hostility and killing intent… Also, invite Master Garcia over.”

The plain here was vast and flat. The expressions of the elves in front of him slowly became visible. Kang De’s raised collar covered his mouth. This was to prevent the elves with shocking vision from discovering that he was talking to the air.

He used the walkie-talkie to communicate with his iron son and specially ran back to the white fog world to borrow it last night.

“The distance is about the same, so they have to welcome us. You have to pay attention to the coordinates and listen to my orders.”

As expected, when the two sides were about 200 meters apart, the flag on the other side fluttered. The honor guard wearing shining golden etiquette armor strode out and smoothly divided into two rows, listing the paths. Accompanied by his subordinates, the commander of the Dusk Legion walked over.

“Get ready… Listen to me talk. When I say ‘hello, your mother is dead’, fire.”

Kang De stopped and propped up the car. With a calm expression, he welcomed the elves.

The walkie-talkie was silent. His iron son did not speak, waiting for his father’s order.

Suddenly, Kang De’s expression changed. He lowered his head slightly as if he was staring at something on his body. Then, he pondered and said, “Wait, don’t be anxious.”

The walkie-talkie was still silent. There was only an imperceptible soft sound, indicating that he understood.

The elf leader’s hand had already reached over.

Kang De said indifferently, “Sir, your hand is covered in the blood of Goethe soldiers and innocent civilians. My hand is also stained with the blood of many elf invaders. If we shake hands, will the dead living beings agree?”

The commander’s expression did not change as he said calmly, “Before answering this question, Your Excellency, Goethe has ruled this place for hundreds of years. It collects taxes from the diligent commoners every year and has also recruited soldiers to fight outside and let countless husbands and sons die. It has achieved the reputation, status, and wealth of the Tedrell family. The price is the poverty, separation, and sorrow of the people. I want to ask if the successive Grand Dukes of Goethe have asked the consent of the commoners of Goethe to do these things?”

Before Kang De could speak, the commander retracted his hand.

“The answer is that there’s no need, none of them. The Grand Dukes of Goethe rule the commoners and don’t need the approval of the commoners. Whether we shake hands or not, we don’t need the approval of the dead either. We only have to follow our hearts. This is the authority of a superior,” the elf said. “Since Prince Kang De doesn’t want to shake my hand, I don’t have a reason to have to shake yours. Therefore, there’s no need to shake.”

He stretched out his hand and bowed slightly, more like a Cathayan etiquette. “Please.”

Kang De’s heart skipped a beat. He restrained the contempt and teasing he had just felt and walked side by side with the other party.

Behind him were the officers accompanying the elves, and on both sides were the honor guard with stern expressions. The elves of this world were not as slender and weak as Kang De had in his impression. Instead, they were burly, majestic, and strong. Moreover, they were handsome. They were the kind of handsomeness that made people jealous.

However, it did not matter. After killing them all, he would be the most handsome man in this area.

At this moment, the iron tower-like elf beside him slowly said, “My name is Therlandron.”

Kang De turned around in surprise.

The other party’s expression was also curious, “His Highness Kang De doesn’t care what I’m called. Moreover, it’s not out of fear and nervousness, but because you don’t care at all… It’s really surprising that there are actually humans in this world who will look down on the elves from the bottom of their hearts. Moreover, it’s a powerful hero like you who has faced the elves head-on.”

Kang De stopped.

The commander stopped. The elves behind him stopped. The guards of honor on both sides glanced at Kang De from the corner of their eyes. At least at this moment, Kang De was in the center.

He revealed a vexed expression as if he did not know where to start. This was a very complicated question. It would take a long time to tell… Moreover, it was meaningless to say it.

Therefore, Kang De nodded. “You’re right. I look down on you.”

The elves were actually not angry. Some elves even chuckled.

When an elephant was provoked by an ant who said “you little thing”, the elephant would not be angry, right?

Instead, he would feel that it was ridiculous and funny.

The commander asked curiously, “Why?”

Kang De shrugged. “There are many reasons. Part of them stems from my arrogance and sense of superiority. This is very bad and ugly. I’ve been working hard to change it.”

“However, a greater reason is your actions, your double standards, your hypocrisy, your disregard for morals, your war, your fake attitude, and ugliness…”

Kang De looked around at the elves and saw pairs of eyes filled with disdain, disgust, and mockery. This arrogance, prejudice, pride, and curiosity… they were the same as many Westerners.

He did not care, did not understand, and did not want to care. He could not be bothered to understand.

What was the point of wasting his breath?

“Forget it, let’s not talk about it.”

He sighed, then said, “F*ck your mothers.”

The air suddenly froze. The noble elves looked at each other and even suspected that they had heard wrongly. Their brains which were filled with countless elegant words could not understand this simple and direct vulgarity. The many etiquette entries they had learned did not have the plan to deal with such a situation.

They even forgot to be angry.

A moment later, Therlandron was the first to recover. There was no anger on his face, but his tone became more serious, “You shouldn’t have said that. Rude, ridiculous, and uncultured. You’ve embarrassed Tedrell.”

Kang De nodded and said, “I start a war. I invade other people’s territory. I kill and kill innocent civilians. I’m unscrupulous and cold-blooded, but I know that I’m a noble and pure race. This is your logic. Hypocritical, ugly, and ridiculous. I really want to see what you look like after tearing off your masks.”

He sneered, “Just like now, you swore on your reputation and dignity that you would definitely not set up any traps, but you set a trap from the beginning. Isn’t the despicable nature of the elves considered despicable? Even if you’re pointed at your nose and insulted, you have to maintain your elegance. ‘You shouldn’t have said this’. Would you put on such a pained expression and say, ‘You shouldn’t have done this’ if I f*cked your mother in front of you?”

Therlandron’s expression suddenly changed and he said sternly, “Kang De!”

His sword was unsheathed, and his spear was placed flat, surrounded by killing intent.

Kang De’s expression did not change as he said indifferently, “Why are you calling your father by his name?”

The commander was furious and was about to attack, but he revealed a cruel and ferocious smile, “You’ve already discovered it? You came here alone and still dare to be so impudent until now. You should have something to rely on, right? I discovered earlier that Valentine didn’t even send out a support team. You didn’t intend on returning the way you came, right?”

“During the siege battle the day before, that mechanical giant’s last attack shot into the air and blew up my command platform. Its power is extremely powerful. Did you come this time to do the same and use yourself as bait to gather us together so that that mechanical giant can capture us in one fell swoop?”

“Do you think I guessed what method you’ll use to escape?”

His tone became calmer and calmer, but the killing intent and cruelty in his eyes became stronger and stronger.

“The information about Glory Sand Town spread throughout the army. The intelligence department dug out everything there, including how Princess Tina escaped… Prince Kang De has a similar teleportation divine artifact, right?”

“After I guessed this, I secretly asked Master Garcia to place a spatial anchor on this place. You might not understand the principle of this spell, but I can tell you that the space around you has already been locked. This means that no matter where you want to teleport to, Master Garcia’s power will firmly lock onto you. Before you successfully teleport, he will directly pull you back and fix you here!”

“In other words… you can’t leave!”

Therlandron said indifferently, “You’ll pay a heavy price for those words.”

Kang De chuckled. “So his name is Garcia.”

The commander’s expression suddenly changed and he attacked like lightning.

However, Kang De’s eyes had already lit up with the circulation of time. He tore open his clothes and grabbed the crimson scroll that carried the divine power of time and space of the Dragon of Creation. A shattered black halo appeared around him, “The reason why I’m telling you this nonsense is only because I think it’s quite profitable to kill an elf who’s good at spatial power.”

In the next moment, he disappeared without a trace.

Therlandron immediately turned around and said sternly, “Master Garcia, quickly…”

With a soft sound like glass shattering, the spatial shift trick disappeared, revealing the old and wise face of the elf mage. The elegant elf who had lived for many years instantly disappeared from this world and completely disappeared, dying silently.

The elves did not know what this death meant.

This Master Garcia was the first living being to explode from the force of an entire universe since this world was created.

In the next moment, the sound of a cannonball passing through the sky echoed.
