Civilization: Beyond Two Worlds

"do not be afraid."

Kant's calm and steady voice entered Hong San's ears.

That voice was not loud, not firm, not sonorous and powerful, just an ordinary tone, just ordinary words, and even lowered his voice... but it calmed Hong San's heart instantly.

He turned around and saw Kant's face.

The other party unexpectedly smiled at him.

Hong Sanfei didn't see Kant's smile, but those smiles were either sneers, mockery, grim smiles, or wry smiles, and most of the connotations contained in them were "you salty fish", "you are nothing. Medicine can be saved", "How the **** do you dare to appear in front of me" and so on.

Although there is no malice, it is also looking down and making judgments, full of disapproval and even contempt.

The smile this time was different from before.

Very gentle, full of encouragement, recognition, and most importantly, equality.

For some reason, Hong San's heart was suddenly shocked, and then he felt a certain sadness, and there were thousands of tastes in his heart in an instant.

how to say.

He has been watched with contempt and disdain all these years.

For example, in the Goode family, although he is a servant, his status in Huisha Castle is not low, but not only several masters regard him as a slave, but even the maids and servants who are not as good as him often use it. He looked at him with disdain, and talked about him behind his back.

But he doesn't care, this is the way of life he chooses, and the comments and contempt of others do no harm to him. As long as the master doesn't drive him away, he can live happily ever after.

until he met Kant.

This master is different from all the Aurora compatriots he has seen before. His thoughts are very strange. His attitude and style of dealing with others are even somewhat similar to those of Master, but what really shocks Hong San is not how Uncle Kang treats others. Attitude is not his old man's belief and principles of conduct.

But what he did.

When the night changed, the Viscount showed his fangs, and everyone in Goethe died, but Uncle Kang escaped from the sky. Of course, you have to run away, live incognito and live safely, as for revenge... you can't.

There is no way to report, let's escape, and it's just a group of Goethes.

But... it paid off.

Overnight, the world turned upside down, but another day, the world turned over again.

One person against a group of people, they were beaten and fled in a hurry last night, and today they are happy and vindictive. Viscountess, magicians, so-called talented people, so-called strong military, all of them died without a place to die, and the methods were cruel and used. To the extreme, act resolutely, intimidate the enemy with fear, kill decisively, and show no mercy. In one day and one night, the once glorious Huisha Viscounty collapsed, blazing into the sky and burning everything.

The impact and impact of this incident on Hong San was too great.

Because he saw it with his own eyes.

Witnessed that Kant was kind and kind, and even the beggars who were despicable and liars were willing to help.

I also witnessed a great change in Kant's temperament, his methods were cruel, crazy and terrifying, and he was just taking it easy.

It turns out that a gentle and peaceful person can also be as ferocious as a tiger.

Those great people with infinite glory are as cheap as pigs in front of him.

All of this gave Hong San a great impact and made him understand one thing.

It turns out that there is such a way of living in this world...

Of course, he was only sighing about this. As a human being who is too self-aware, he would never have the wild idea of ​​"Kant can do it, I can do it too".

- Besides, such a fierce person, didn't he die under the cursed artifact in the end? It can be seen that relying on power is the cause of death, and most of the failures in the world originate from this, because once a person has power, he always thinks about using power to solve problems, and one day he will encounter problems that he cannot understand or resist. Unpredictable power, brave and ruthless, fighting for strengths and anger, is really self-defeating.

Hong San learned a lesson from Kant's "demise" and stabilized his Taoism.

But in his heart, he couldn't help but feel some admiration and admiration.

He was very envious and admired Kant.

What a person lacks, he envy those who have it.

Although he lives comfortably and securely, that doesn't mean he doesn't know what he lacks.

It doesn't mean he won't be envious.

That's why he was so attentive to Princess Tina's task, and he did not forget to worship and enshrine Kant's spiritual seat on the road, because he really admired and admired such a person from the bottom of his heart.

Such... a person who dares to draw a sword.

Then, Kant appeared in front of him again.

And now, when he was caught up in the burdens and pleadings that he had never undertaken and did not want to bear, even panic, fear, and unease, he reached out and held his shoulders.

"Don't be afraid," he said.

And showed a friendly, encouraging, recognized, warm smile.

Such kindness, such a smile, he has not seen for a long, long time.

Because Kant is a different person.

Hong San acted as the umbrella and patron saint of many people along the way. Many people admired him, and many people admired him. He has received many, many thanks and praises. Walking in the camp, he has never lacked the eyes of worship and fanaticism, and everyone smiled at him. ...but he knew where it came from.

It only comes from the fact that he can protect people, it only comes from an exchange of interests between protection and being protected, and it only comes from the fact that he can lead people all the way to this day, making most people safe and fed.

Once they can't do it, these people will probably be scattered indifferently.

If huge casualties are caused and these people lose their loved ones and close friends, then the adoring gaze will disappear and be replaced by hateful questioning.

He knows, he knows everything.

But Kant's smile was different.

Because the other party knows about his past and personality, and he is also a figure he will never reach. That Lord Kant is a dream that he can never touch. He is deeply admired and envied by him, but now he shows recognition and love to him. an encouraging smile...

Such a smile really surpassed all the false and utilitarian politeness he had seen in the past two months.

At this moment, the complex emotions surging in Hong San's heart are really difficult to describe in words.

He just felt that the fatigue and exhaustion of the past two months was not in vain.

"...Look at what I'm doing, talk."

Kant's voice woke Hong San from his sighs and feelings.

When he came back to his senses, he saw that everyone was looking at him, and he couldn't help saying blankly, "What?"

Kant sighed: "Stabilize the military, what are you thinking about?"

Hong San reacted immediately, he nodded, looked around at the people gathered on the street, raised his arms and shouted: "My friends, maybe you all know the news, the city gates are closed, the elves are attacking, the city lord is summoned, life I’m discussing matters, I’m going here this time to fight for a way out for the big guys! Before I come back, everyone, please relax, we have passed through the mountains of swords and seas of fire, and this time we will definitely be able to do it!”

To be honest, in Kant's view, this short speech was actually quite satisfactory, with no sparks and highlights, but people's reactions exceeded his expectations.

First one person started, then everyone slowly started cheering, and then became frenzied. This warm atmosphere, this heartfelt gratification and satisfaction, no matter men, women and children, everyone cast their respectful eyes and warm cheers to Hong San , as if Hong San had found a way out for everyone.

In this sudden cheer and enthusiasm, Kant saw the trance and jealousy in the eyes of the leaders of Chen, Song, and Huang... This is what they yearn for.

But who knows, Hong San actually doesn't care about all this, or even avoids it.

He looked at the crowd who kept cheering and shouting. The frenzy was spreading, people were following the crowd, and Kant's heart flashed a glimpse of enlightenment - maybe these people don't care about facts and logic, they just blindly rely on Hong San and don't want to care about the truth , unwilling to think, just passively and blindly obeying, they just want Hong San to say a few words to reassure themselves, they will seize this life-saving straw and use it to comfort themselves.

It doesn't matter if it's a false lie.

He finally looked at Hong San, thoughtfully.

I'm afraid this guy... has already seen through all this, so he just used an impassioned and unquestionable tone, and casually said a few righteous empty words.

Surrounded by the crowd, Hong San was sent to the street and met the mayor's messenger.

It is said that this block was recently opened up and sorted out for the centralized resettlement of Hong San and his pedestrians.

Hong San said that when he saw the mayor act in such a way, he actually allowed their group of not weak armed forces to continue to form a group in the city, instead of splitting and relocating the refugees in the team, he felt very bad. Obviously, the mayor wants the team to remain cohesive and organized.

Looking at it now, it really is well prepared, and I want them to go to defend the city and fight...

Kant looked around and saw the fleet of soldiers in the building on the other side of the street.

He could feel that many eyes were watching vigilantly.

I am afraid that around this street, there are elite soldiers arranged by the mayor. If Hong San is unwilling and intends to instigate his subordinates to go out of the city, he will definitely be killed by the mayor who has been prepared for a long time...

This city owner is not a fuel-efficient lamp.

The messenger's attitude was neither arrogant nor respectful, but business-like, with no expression on the other side and a strong tone: "At the mayor's order, Mr. Hong San, please come to the city hall to discuss matters!"

Hong San smiled and nodded and said, "It's up to you, I'll go with you."

Once again, this fellow's social skills are almost full, and there is nothing wrong with watching people serve dishes, and the stern-faced messenger's expression softened.

Lao Du, who had seen him before, brought the horses, and several leaders wanted to follow. The messenger reached out and stopped him: "I'm sorry, everyone, the mayor only invites Mr. Hong San alone."

Chen Honghu was furious, and was about to scold when he opened his mouth, but Song Baoyi stopped him. Hong San turned his head and said, "Don't worry about the brothers, just go back when you go there for your brother, see the mayor, and then discuss with the brothers."

After he finished speaking, he bowed his hands to the messenger again: "Your Excellency, this person beside me is not only my mentor's classmate, but also the chief military staff of our organization. He has superb combat experience and administrative management capabilities. I think, such a major meeting , if he was involved, he might be able to make useful suggestions..."

Hearing the words, the messenger glared at Kant, his eyes were sharp and scrutinized.

Kant looked back lightly.

The eyes of the two of them stopped at the touch of a button. The envoy blinked his sore eyes and turned to look at Hong San with a complicated tone: "You said he was the chief military staff officer?"

-What am I saying, sir, how can there be a military strategist as violent as you, no one believes it.

Hong San somehow explained: "We Aurora, everyone practice martial arts, and the military staff is no exception. His martial arts is very high, and he is especially good at fighting, but it is purely a personal hobby..."

The messenger nodded and said, "Okay, just bring him with you."

He looked at Kant again: "People from Aurora, you are very nice, what's your name?"

Yeah, what's my name?

Kant thought for a while, and he was about to blurt out "Dong Zhantian".

Hong San stepped forward again and hurriedly said, "My uncle's name is... Dong Zhuo."

Kant rolled his eyes.

- You wait a minute!

The messenger smiled and said, "Dong Zhuo...Okay, I remember it, Chief Military Staff Officer."

Under the watch of everyone in the Tiandihui, the three of them left on horseback. This was the first time Kant saw a city in another world, and it belonged to Goethe... It just couldn't tell whether it was prosperous or not, because the mayor's order had been implemented vigorously and resolutely. The shops on both sides closed their doors, and the pedestrians on the street returned home one after another. Everyone's faces were horrified. When the war came, the people who suffered the most were always the civilians.

Kant only saw a row of houses and small buildings, exotic and colorful, but behind the window, there were a pair of confused and frightened eyes, all of which were so heavy.

He couldn't help but sigh.

This is the country Tina and Cleveland want to protect.

So, now, what should he do?

Until he arrived at the city hall, Kant had a preliminary understanding of the mayor he had never met, because the city hall sounded like an administrative building, but it was built like a fortress, with a four-pointed arrow tower, an iron wall in front of the door, and a building in front of it. The large open space is not a garden, but a dense pile of anti-cavalry...

The messenger came to the door, handed over to the guards, turned around and smiled at the two of them: "Mr. Hong San, Mr. Dong Zhuo, I have a step ahead, someone will lead you in a while, we will meet again."

Having said that, he walked away.

Hong San whispered in Chinese: "Master, this messenger is by no means an ordinary person, and his status is definitely not low."

"None of my business."

Kant stared, "What's with the name Dong Zhuo?"

Damn it, he was shocked when he heard it just now.

Hong San accompanies the small talk: "Master, Master, it's my own opinion, we are a pseudonym, keep a low profile..."

My Nima is called Dong Zhuo, still low-key?

Hong San explained: "My master's surname is Dong, and my teacher's maiden's surname is Zhuo. I'm called Dong Zhuo. It's low-key and ordinary. It's very good. Besides, the name Zhuo is also very good..."

Kant waved his hand, it was just a pseudonym anyway, and he asked again: "How, how did you feel just now? So many people trust you, so many people rely on you, their safety and hope rest on your shoulders, what do you have? What are you going to do, what are you going to do?"

When Hong San heard him mention it, his heart moved, and the complicated mood had not yet dissipated.

Even the touch of the press still remains on the shoulders, as well as the sentence, don't be afraid.

That never-before-seen, recognizing, encouraging, gentle smile.

He was a little excited and a little uneasy, and said softly: "Master, you just said, let me not be afraid..."

Kant looked at him, nodded and said, "Yeah, what I said, what's wrong?"

Hong San's experience in the past two months, Hong San's current situation, the burden he has lifted, and the weight of trust he has gathered on his shoulders, all of which Kant sees in his eyes.

It would be a lie to say that there is no fluctuation in the heart.

He also wondered if he could do something.

No...that's for sure.

If even people like Hong San were willing to stay for those people and fight to protect them, how could Kant leave? This is the country of Tina and the knights.

So he said to Hong San, don't be afraid.

If the other party is determined to protect, he will also help.

As long as he speaks, as long as he is willing, as long as he makes a decision, no longer cowardly and escape.

Then Kant will lend a hand.

Under Kant's gaze, Hong San gritted his teeth, but did not speak.

Hesitation and struggle flashed across Aurora's face.

Apparently it was a war between heaven and man.

It is said that nature is hard to change, some things are deeply ingrained, and it is easier said than done to change it. How can a cowardly and humble person become a hero in a short period of time.

He seems to be tossing between his own philosophy and the current state of crisis.

This choice must be difficult.

Kant understands and has enough patience.

He waited silently.

In the end, Hong San gritted his teeth, lowered his head, clenched his fists, and seemed to summon up his courage. Perhaps this is the most important turning point in his life, making a choice beyond himself.

- A look of anticipation flashed in Kant's eyes.

"Father..."

Only Hong San whispered: "Can I give you my position?"

"…"

"…"

When the servants came out to greet them, they were startled when they saw Hong San.

Because Mr. Hong San seemed to have been punched in the forehead.

"No...it's okay..."

Hong San bared his teeth and grinned: "Bump… bump…”

"…"

The servant thought that I was wrong again, which was clearly hitting my fist.

But it's none of his business, he's just a servant: "...Two people please."

Hong San hurriedly walked in, Kant's face was sinking like water, and he followed behind without saying a word.

They passed the staggered anti-cavalry piles and entered the main building of the City Hall. Many people were busy, either holding documents or wearing armor. They just glanced at Kant and Hong San quickly, and didn't care.

Under the leadership of the servant, he walked to the conference room, and before he got close, he heard a domineering shout.

"Let your great-grandmother's **** stinky fart! Hurry up and squeeze your back door, my mother is not easy to mess with!"
