Civilization: Beyond Two Worlds

I Have a Plan

“…Is this a f*cking elf?”

Kang De turned and cursed at the knight.

What happened to the gentle big sister and the cute little boy?

The knight was stunned. “What’s wrong?”

Kang De was so shocked that he stammered, “They don’t look right, right? If you don’t look at their ears, I’ll believe you if you say these are barbarians. Could it be that the elves married barbarians?”

The knight was even more puzzled, but he recognized the binoculars in Kang De’s hand.

Although there were mages who were proficient in the Eagle Eye Technique and the Atmospheric Penetration Technique in this era who provided battlefield information, single-glass binoculars were still equipped in the army in large numbers. After all, the number of mages and magic power was limited.

Although Kang De’s was a double barrel, the structure was still similar.

He stretched out his hand and said, “Please lend it to me.”

Kang De handed the binoculars over.

The knight tried to look and roughly grasped the use. After observing for a moment, he said with extreme certainty, “It’s indeed the elves, and it’s the elves on the Wayne Wings who chased us.”

Kang De could not accept this scene.

“Hey, hey, hey, this is very strange, right? How can an elf look like this?”

The knight was even more puzzled. “What do you think elves should look like?”

Kang De took out his phone and thought for a moment. He did not show him the lewd picture of the elf eating his hand. His phone happened to have the movie of the “Lord of the Rings” trilogy. It had been sent to his phone a few days ago and he planned to use it to pass the time when he was bored wandering in the wild. He showed it to the knight and was shocked when he saw it, “Why does this elf have the face of a mainlander?”

—I don’t know how to criticize you like this!

He said in a complicated tone, “This is the imagination of our people for elves.”

Cleveland shook his head and said, “Then the Cathayan’s impression of the elves is too ridiculous.”

He looked at the phone curiously and handed it back to Kang De. A heavy worry appeared on his face, but he still patiently explained to him.

Perhaps he also wanted Kang De to recognize what a true elf was.

“Mr. Kang De, please look.”

He gestured for Kang De to use the binoculars and explained, “The two assault boats in the middle have a total of 50 elves in white combat uniforms with half their chests exposed. They’re from the Marine Corps. The training standard is equivalent to that of a sergeant of the Elven Royal Army’s Arrow Regiment. Do you see the Giant Battle Reversal Bow they’re carrying?”

“With the Dragon Shirt Wood as the material, it is directly guided by the Druid Archer to shape and strengthen it. It is 2.4 meters long and has a full strength of 200 pounds. The minimum selection standard for the Dragon Fang Army’s archers is to quietly shoot a human target at a distance of 300 meters, shoot 20 arrows accurately in a minute, and shoot 30 arrows at full speed in a minute.”

“Please note that this is the lowest standard. The champion archers standing at the peak of the elven military world can use stronger bows to shoot every second. The arrows fall like a waterfall and all armor is torn.”

Cleveland said, “Look, other than bows and arrows, these accompanying marines also carry a two-handed broadsword as an auxiliary weapon. If necessary, they can form a windmill sword formation to carry out a heavy raid. Soldiers who can use such weapons naturally have strong bodies and terrifying arm strength. They’re all top-notch ferocious soldiers.”

He looked at Kang De, “As for the elf in the painting you showed me… It’s fine if it’s a mage with his weak physique, or it can be an ordinary adventurer with a low-pound civilian bow. However, if it appears on the battlefield as an archer, he’ll definitely be mocked by the elves.”

…It was really reasonable and made him speechless.

Although he understood the logic, this was his fantasy!

It was just like how it was very unscientific to operate mecha, but he f*cking wanted to drive a huge robot to destroy all enemies!

—Therefore, even if you say that elves are all peerless ferocious men with powerful arms and burly bodies, I just want to find a gentle and naturally stupid big sister!

Kang De still did not give up. He looked at the knight and said seriously, “Right, I don’t see any female elves. Please tell me that female elves don’t look like this… right?!”

A subtle expression appeared on the knight’s face. He could not understand Kang De’s inexplicable persistence.

“Ah… just like us humans, there are beautiful women like Her Highness, and also female warriors who are not inferior to men in terms of fighting.”

He replied, “Talent is important, and so is training the day after tomorrow. However, in general, female elves are not mainly strong and rough. Most of them are still very beautiful…”

Kang De let out a long breath.

He was really frightened.

…Wait.

Kang De recovered from his unstable mental state and realized the current situation.

His expression gradually became serious, “…These elves are here for you?”

The knight smiled bitterly and nodded.

“You finally understand… I’ve been explaining the threat and strength of the elves to you, but you seem to be more concerned about their appearance.”

Cleveland, who treated protecting the princess as his supreme mission, was not in a hurry to report it to the princess. His eyes changed intensely as he fell into a huge dilemma.

Kang De looked at him quietly and said nothing.

After a long time, the knight slowly spoke with difficulty.

“Mr. Kang De…”

He said in a low voice, “Goethe and the elves are fighting. The blood feud has been formed and is irreconcilable. No matter when or where we encounter each other, we’ll definitely fight until one side falls. You’re a Cathayan and have nothing to do with our war. Although we’ve had a misunderstanding and conflict here, we’ve already buried the hatchet. We’ll remember your warm hospitality and help. Logically speaking, we shouldn’t let you be involved in this conflict.”

Kang De did not answer.

Although he got along well with these Goethe people, there seemed to be no reason for him to participate in their war. After all, the knight had just explained the strength and terror of the elves.

War was not a game and he might lose his life.

Kang De could not afford to die here.

However, there was another problem.

If these elves chased to the island and killed all the Goethe people, what would they do to him if they discovered Kang De?

Thinking of this, Kang De was very vexed.

He hated the idea of entrusting his life to others.

Just like when he had a conflict with Knight and the others earlier, if he had surrendered and waited for Tina to explain, he would most likely not have been troubled by the Goethe people… However, he was unwilling to bet on this.

Moreover, in the end… the elves were also attracted by these Goethe people.

How annoying.

At this moment, he heard the knight say, “In fact, we led the elves here. In other words, you were clearly living a calm life on the island, but we placed you in danger. When I think of this, I feel extremely ashamed. You treated us kindly and generously, but we brought you danger.”

“I’m extremely sorry, but now, I have no choice but to ask you a favor.”

—It’s here.

Kang De said nothing.

He was even more unhappy.

—The knight will probably ask me to help them fight the elves.

But how could he fight?

A group of muscular brothers holding magic longbows that had seen a ghost had an effective range of 300 meters. It was even further and more accurate than the gun in his hand—how could he fight?

There was no militia arsenal around the district. If there was, he could carry a few bundles of firearms and blow up these elves until their mothers could not recognize them.

However, he did not.

How could he help? How could he win?

His mind was in chaos.

“I want to ask you…” the knight said, “to take good care of the princess.”

Kang De looked up in surprise.

“You have many animal friends on the island. At the very least, you can hide with the princess. As for us, we’ll immediately leave on the ship and lure the elves to pursue.” Cleveland spoke firmly.

Kang De had seen that elf battleship through his binoculars. Not to mention anything else, in terms of size, it was much larger than the stranded Penguin. The larger tonnage represented more people and weapons, the principle of passage through the myriad worlds.

He said, “You’ll sink.”

The knight smiled, “If we sink, the elves will be satisfied and won’t pay too much attention to the islands of the Holy Seal. The princess and you will be as safe as possible.”

However, this meant that everyone except Tina had to die.

Including the knight in front of him.

“Although I still have a lot to do and although I miss this world…” Cleveland smiled fearlessly, “I’m the son of the Prime Minister. Only with me on the ship can others willingly die together.”

Kang De was silent for a moment, “…You can’t defeat him?”

“The chance of winning is zero.”

The knight said without hesitation, “The Wayne Wings is the main ship of the elves, the pillar of the Royal Navy. The members of the ship are all pure-blooded elves. Even half-elves are not allowed to board the ship, let alone the other servant races. The sailors are well-trained, their loyalty and combat strength are extremely high, and they have 500 people. They have a total of 80 spellcasters, including a Grand Mage.”

“Although the Holy Seal Islands have sealed off all supernatural powers, other than the spellcaster team, there are also 50 marines and 320 sailors on the ship. Among the other 50 members, other than the technical personnel like the damage control group and the medical protection group, the navy officer group led by the captain has rich combat skills and powerful strength.”

“As for the Penguin…”

The knight sighed, “We suffered heavy losses in the previous sea battle. We were short of combat resources and lost many spellcasters and elites. With our remaining combat strength, even if we only deal with these 200 Elven soldiers who are about to land, we will be killed in 15 minutes.”

“Because we lack all the methods and equipment to counter the Elven Arrows.”

“With those 50 Marines, they can completely defeat us.”

“There’s no other way… I can only entrust the princess to you. At the very least, she can survive.”

At this point, the knight hesitated for a moment before saying, “In addition, I have to tell you something. The ceremony Her Highness held for you that day was…”

At this moment, the pigeon fell from the sky. It had been sent by Kang De to ask Second Senior Brother about the situation. Now that it had returned, it bared its fangs and brandished its claws in front of Kang De for a while.

Kang De slowly understood. A trace of interest gradually appeared on his face.

“Things might not be as bad as you think…” he pondered. “I have a plan…”

…
