Civilization: Beyond Two Worlds

199 Broken Arrow Oath

When the elf mage called Garcia began to anchor space, Kang De sensed it.

The crimson scroll he kept close to him emitted a faint light and heat. The time and space divine power from Akatum reacted to the small changes in the surrounding space.

Kang De was already prepared to leave at that time, but this change made him change his mind.

On one side was the elf master who had explored the rules of space for many years, and on the other was the leader of the gods, the Dragon of Time and Space.

Even if there was only a trace of weak divine power, it was obvious at a glance who was stronger. He tried to communicate with the white fog world, and the resonance of the time and space divine power in his chest clearly told him something.

The other party was painstakingly building a paper spatial defense line, but the great Dragon of Time and Space could turn him into Higgs boson.

Therefore, in an instant, Kang De changed his mind. If he fired now, he did not know how many of these elves could be killed. However, an elf mage who was good at spatial power was most likely impossible to kill. He had to wait until that grandson completed the defense line and completely blocked Kang De before killing him.

There was no harm in waiting for a while.

The elves clearly had ill intentions, but from the fact that the other party had secretly anchored the space, it could be seen that before this trap was completed, the elves would definitely not attack to prevent him from escaping.

Then let’s wait a while and take the opportunity to scold them a few more times.

Kang De and the elves pretended to be polite as they waited for the other party to finish. However, Master Garcia’s work was really too good and his progress was extremely fast, so much so that he quickly had to hand over his ultimate move and return to the city. This was something that could not be helped. Otherwise, when the elf mage completely strengthened the space and chatted and laughed with the elves in the banquet, waiting for the other party to attack, it would be called dancing on a steel rope. It was something Kang De could not do.

As Kang De had expected, the outcome was very smooth. After cursing, he successfully escaped and returned to the white fog world unharmed. Mage Garcia’s proud work was torn open by the divine power of time and space. Before the elf master could react, Kang De connected the door to the white fog world with his spatial restraint and the power of the entire universe rebounded.

The elf mage died in an unimaginable way and state. Such a death was even more prestigious than eating the solar system of a Dual Vector Foil.

Light flashed and the crack opened. Kang De appeared on the bed in the bedroom.

He lay on the bed and did not move. He only looked at the crimson scroll in his hand.

The burning light of the scroll had yet to dissipate.

In the past, when he shuttled back and forth, he crossed the world in a way he could not understand. The process was as if he was wandering in a dark sea, swimming from one bubble to another. That feeling was very subtle and indescribable as if he was using a computer. He could operate at will and do many things, but he did not know the principle of its operation and did not understand how complicated calculations and changes were behind simple operations.

However, this time, for the first time, he used the divine power of time and space to open the way. For the first time, he broke through the enemy’s magic power and opened the door. The internal principle and the external obstruction, the supreme and profound law, because of the interference and effect of external forces, revealed a trace of essence mystery to Kang De, causing him to fall into deep thought as if he had comprehended something.

“That’s a door…”

Kang De slowly raised the scroll in his hand. He could sense the flow of divine power in the scroll. This scroll that he had obtained from the Holy Seal Islands and handed to Tina had magically returned to his hand giving him a magical ability. It controlled the flow of time in his body, controlled the time anchor mark of the white fog world, and set the location of teleportation… Every one of them was very useful, but he felt that it was definitely more than that.

This was because the divine power in the crimson scroll was still surging and abundant.

“What are you going to teach me this time?” Kang De muttered. “How can I obtain it?”

With his guess, the inheritance rules of the crimson scroll were probably an idealistic mechanism. Akatum was thought to symbolize righteousness and benevolence. Perhaps if he wanted to obtain the approval of the crimson scroll and the divine power of time and space, he had to possess these two precious qualities… This was a guess that Kang De could make as a modern young man who had experienced countless online novels.

However, the problem was…

“I was born in China and grew up in a modern environment. As a person, I remembered the glory and shame of history and formed a worldview filled with positive energy in an enlightened education and good family environment…”

Kang De muttered to himself, “Don’t I have the qualities of righteousness and pity now? What a joke. With my ability and superpower, if I stayed on Earth, I could obtain power, money, and women. Under such circumstances, I still returned to the other world to help Goethe fight the elves. Such a fearless… No, the spirit of inter-worldism is already worthy of being benevolent, brave, and intelligent. I’ll have to go to school in the future.”

He shook his head, got out of bed, and stood up. He should have returned to the other world immediately, but after hesitating, he opened the bedroom door and walked to the living room. This was not Earth, but a mirror world. However, everything was completely the same as on Earth, so he could recall the scene.

Looking at the familiar home, the scenery outside the window, the tall buildings, the traffic, and everything in modern society, it was the place and home he had lived in. He had grown up here. Every day was similar but different. It had always been calm and peaceful. However, a year ago, his world had turned upside down.

Even if the bridge that crossed the two worlds was built and he could return to his hometown at any time, everything was different in the end.

He stood in front of the floor-to-ceiling window and looked at the building opposite him, but he thought of the city wall of Valentine. It had been struck by the elves’ spells until gullies were crisscrossed. Blood had frozen and burned through flames. He looked at the cars that had stopped on the road and thought of the Autobot charging through the elf army. He thought of the intense and crazy killing on the city wall. Arrows filled the sky and spells roared. Large groups of lives instantly fell.

In fact, unlike Glory Sand, this was a true war.

The glass of the French window looked out at the scenery and reflected his slightly blurred reflection. Kang De stretched out his hand and touched the cold glass. He suddenly felt an inexplicable fear.

At this moment, he understood what it meant to decide to return to the other world.

It meant that his mind was leaving Earth and approaching the other world.

The other world was filled with war. True civilization had not been born. Human lives were like grass here. There was an undisguised difference in status. In the midst of war, morality was like a joke.

As a Goethe bureaucrat, Nick did not take civilians seriously. As racist invaders, the elves did not take human lives seriously. On Earth, the so-called human rights and equality had become tools. They had long changed under the control of the West, but in the other world, Kang De missed them.

At the very least, on Earth, even if those principles were only on the surface, they were still deeply rooted in people’s hearts. In the other world, if you talked about these, about pity, equality, and peace, you would be treated as a fool.

The time ratio of seven to one meant that at least now, he would definitely spend far more time in the other world than on Earth. How should he coordinate life on both sides and how could he not be affected by the other world… There were many, many problems. Only now did he suddenly realize that this could not be covered by successive victories.

Moreover… it was far from a victory.

Kang De sighed silently. He pressed his right hand against the glass window and closed his eyes.

Space shattered, and a halo flashed. He had left this world.

In the next moment, the world overturned and crossed time and space. Kang De opened his eyes. There was a soft bed under him. From outside the window, there was a sound like thunder. This was the Vidal Chamber of Commerce.

Kang De got out of bed and pulled open the door. Leona stood opposite him and stared at the door like a puppy. When she saw Kang De, she was first stunned, then she shouted, “You…”

The girl’s voice was a little choked. Even she was shocked. Leona looked at Kang De, her eyes revealing a thousand things, but she did not know what to say.

Before taking the risk, Kang De swore that there was no problem. However, other than him, who would feel that there was nothing to worry about?

“You’re not allowed to do such a thing again!”

Tears welled up in the corners of Leona’s eyes. Perhaps she felt that her tone was a little ambiguous, but then she said angrily, “If you die outside, won’t it be a loss for me to take the risk to run here and suffer for you? I’ll even be troubled by that bastard Nick and the unruly people of this city?”

“Alright, alright, alright.” Kang De agreed, but his thoughts were all outside. “How is it? Did they fight?”

“You!”

Leona choked and immediately felt that all her care and worry had been fed to the dogs. She even ignored the memorable axe warning and the difference in combat strength between the two sides, as well as Kang De’s straightforwardness that he would definitely not pity the fairer sex. She stood up and kicked his calf.

The outcome was obvious. Although Kang De did not have to sweep Leona down, even if he did not move, the effects of strength were mutual. The physical strength of the delicate young lady and Master Kang, who had been strengthened by the black beast crystal to a ridiculous extent, was not equal.

Leona kicked as if she had kicked an iron plate. She howled and hugged her foot, becoming even angrier. She ignored Kang De’s concern and jumped in the opposite direction with one leg.

As he jumped, he cursed, “How the f*ck would I know?! After hearing that you were gone, I ran back and waited for you. How would I know what happened? What does it have to do with me? I’m a f*cking pig of the Empire. Goethe people can die as many times as they want. You might as well die outside!”

Kang De stood where he was and was stunned for a moment before sighing.

He quickly caught up to Leona and picked her up by the waist. Like a mountain chief snatching a wife, he ignored Leona’s struggles and kicks and ran back to his room to put the girl on the bed.

He reached out and pulled off the other party’s shoe, threw it away, pulled open the blanket, and covered it. Kang De reached out and rubbed Leona’s face forcefully, making Miss Vidal’s beautiful face extremely funny.

As he rubbed it, he comforted, “Alright, alright, don’t be angry. Thank you for your concern. It’s about time. Consider it my fault and I’m sorry, okay? In short, it’s all my fault. Lie here obediently and rest first. I’m going to the city wall. If there’s anything, talk about it in the future…”

With that, he opened the window and jumped out, running towards the city wall.

Leona lay on the bed in a daze with her feet in the air. Her face was red from being rubbed and even a trace of saliva flowed out. She stared at the ceiling in a daze. After a long time, she suddenly jolted.

“I-it’s actually like carrying a pig…” She cried, “Doesn’t this b*tch know how to hug a woman?!”

After a while, Leona’s delicate body shook again, “…D*mn, what did he just tell me?”

She grabbed the blanket and covered her head forcefully, beginning to roll and kick on the bed.

Kang De had already rushed to the street and ran.

Only then did he think of the walkie-talkie and ask, “Hey, how’s the artillery results? What’s the commotion with the elves?”

A moment later, his iron son’s voice sounded, “Father, you’re back?”

Kang De said, “Yes, how was the result?”

The Autobot replied, “I don’t know. The cannonball raised a huge cloud of dust. The enemy’s mages seem to have also swept up a sandstorm to block vision and can’t determine the outcome. As for the movements of the enemy, I don’t know for the time being. The city wall is already prepared to deal with the siege that might erupt at any time…”

Kang De said, “Alright, I’ll be there soon.”

As he ran, cries and commotion sounded from the houses along the street. When he passed by a house, he even heard the child ask, “Mom, is there going to be a war again? Can we not fight?”

Towards the weak and helpless commoners, the peaceful time since the elves retreated yesterday was the most beautiful and peaceful… This peace and beauty were shattered after the sound of the cannonball. Everyone knew what it meant.

Kang De suddenly felt a little uncomfortable. For some reason, perhaps it was a little additional emotion after being depressed in the white fog world.

He stopped paying attention to these unnecessary sounds and sped up, his figure sweeping across the street.

After passing by a fire truck that was patrolling and mobilizing, someone shouted from the car, “Lord…”

It was a familiar female voice, but Kang De’s figure only paused for a moment. He did not turn around and continued to travel. He did not have the mood to do so now.

The few aldermen on the fire truck looked at Kang De’s figure running wildly. The petite one looked at him with envy and reverence and sighed.

In the first siege, she encountered Kang De who saved her in the burning fire. After winning, she knew that he was the hero who had turned the tide and saved Valentine at the critical moment.

She still wanted to thank him…

However, he most likely did not remember her. After all, she was not very polite at that time.

“Don’t be disappointed. He’s just too busy. After all, there’s going to be a war again,” his companion comforted. “You’ve been patrolling since early morning and are tired, right? Do you want to rest?”

“I’m not tired,” the girl said. “I can do it for an entire day.”

At the intersection near the city wall, the Hummer rumbled out. “Father.”

It transformed into a human and raised its right hand to carry Kang De up the city wall. When the soldiers saw that Prince Kang De, who had left the city, had already returned safely, they were first stunned, then cheered in unison.

Hong San and Preston ran over.

“Master,” the Cathayan said, “the elves haven’t attacked yet. We don’t know the results.”

Preston sighed. “Unfortunately, Valentine’s army is too weak. Otherwise, I could even send troops to raid… Sigh.”

Kang De exchanged a few pleasantries with them and suddenly heard someone shout, “Look!”

Everyone turned around and saw that in the distance, amidst the dust, a small team of cavalry had rushed over. The order was passed down, and the soldiers were waiting solemnly. However, no one believed that dozens of cavalry were here to attack the city.

As expected, that was not the case.

This team of elf cavalry had fearless expressions and had already approached the range of the war weapons in the city. The soldiers in the city could even clearly see their faces. The mage raised the wind and increased the volume. That cavalry shouted in unison, “Humans of Valentine, listen carefully!”

“Lord Therlandron pitied your lives and invited your Princess Tina’s husband, the Cathayan, Kang De, out of the city to negotiate and discuss a result that’s good for both sides. However, in the end, as you can see, it was Kang De who chose war! He had no shame or integrity to speak of and actually set up a vicious plan to kill and injure many soldiers. We came with peace and trust, but this happened, causing the warriors to die without any honor. Such humiliation can only be washed away with blood. On Lord Therlandron’s orders, we send Valentine an ultimatum!”

“I order you humans to take down the despicable and untrustworthy Cathayan, Kang De, so that Valentine City can be preserved. The person who captures Kang De will obtain the complete qualifications to rule Valentine and be conferred a title of our dynasty. If you resist stubbornly, I swear on behalf of the Twilight Legion that after the city is broken, the entire city will be massacred!”
