Civilization: Beyond Two Worlds

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

These fierce roars came out of the conference room and echoed in the corridors.

Roar so loud.

And the sound is nice too.

Apparently a young woman.

There is a fragrant smell in the air.

Kant was startled, turned his head and said, "Is this the **** mayor?"

Hong San said blankly, "No."

Kant nodded and said, "Then she's amazing."

At this moment, the roar of the girl came from inside again: "You dare to detain the old lady here, believe it or not, the Vidal family will not sell a single [beep-] hair to you Goethe from now on! You hit the elves with your heads! Why, you have to be rough! You want to fight with each other!"

Hong San and the servant who led them all showed complicated expressions.

But Kant's expression changed.

He heard familiar words.

The Vidal family?

Kant reached out and patted the servant's shoulder: "Excuse me, what's the background of the woman inside?"

There was a trace of untraceable disdain in the servant's eyes, and he pouted: "It's a cunning imperial man who came to do business. When he saw the elves calling, he wanted to run away. It's really cowardly."

Imperial people... that is indeed inseparable.

A few days ago, he was intercepted and hunted down by the eldest prince's people. At first, he met an old man and asked him how to sell his car. He also said that his little master welcomed the talented alchemist.

Convenience is the self-proclaimed Vidal family.

After killing all the imperial chasers, he once wondered if the old man had leaked his news, but after being tortured, he found that it didn't seem to be the case - he was in a hurry to run away at that time, and he didn't pay any attention to this son Vidal. The family, did not expect to meet again in Goethe.

Is it a coincidence?

It should be... When he returned from the earth, he fell into this Valentine city for reasons that have not yet been clarified. This is an accident within an accident, and only ghosts can count this.

When Kant thought of this, he let go of his vigilance a little.

But the other party was from the Empire, and after going through the fascinating communication experience a few days ago, Kant still maintained a considerable degree of vigilance and set the tone of his dealings.

Just treat the other party as air, if the other party recognizes him and has bad intentions.

then kill it.

Gas cans, gasoline, dust explosions, seventy yards and peanuts, take your pick.

The servant brought them to the door of the conference room, knocked on the door lightly, and said, "Mr. Hong San of the Heaven and Earth Society has arrived, Your Honorable Mayor."

The quarrel inside stopped, and then, calm and restrained words came out: "Please come in."

The servant opened the door and bent over to beg.

Hong San and Kant walked out. There were already many people sitting around the large table, and they looked and dressed differently, some were well-mannered, some were well-dressed, some were in armor, and some were full of evil spirits.

Businessmen, nobles, mercenaries, soldiers... At this time of crisis, representatives of all classes in the city came to the City Hall, and the mayor obviously wanted to integrate all the forces that could be integrated.

Kant's eyes swept around the faces of the two rows of people, and he naturally noticed the person he wanted to see the most - the female voice who was bold and scolding the street before. A girl who always attracts the attention of innocent men.

Then he saw a petite girl with silver hair, with a small face and even a little baby fat. She was very beautiful and cute. She was wearing a long black dress with red thorns embellished in it, white arms and delicate skin. His little hands were wrapped in black gauze gloves.

Such a girl should have appeared at the tea party of celebrities, and should have appeared in the elf foreign trade store in the private market, but she appeared in the town hall near the wartime.

And with his hands on the conference table, his body leaned forward, his eyes were sharp, and he was extremely aggressive.

- Kant's eyes twitched.

There are various indications that this petite and lovely girl is the one who spit out the fragrance just now.

The previous quarrel was interrupted by the arrival of the two, and everyone looked at the door, including the girl. The silver-haired girl's gaze skipped Hong San and landed on Kant's face - to be precise, her hair.

There was a little surprise in her eyes.

The two looked at each other.

But then, Kant's pupils shrank, and there was a murderous look in his eyes.

Because he saw someone more worthy of attention.

Just behind the girl, stood an old man, it was the member of the Vidal family who intercepted him that night. Kant remembered it very clearly - the other party actually appeared in Valentine City at such a time.

Then... maybe it's not a coincidence.

The old butler also looked at Kant in surprise, and there was a trace of fear in his eyes.

This person handed out an olive branch to Kant that night, but Kant, who was extremely vigilant at that time, ignored him at all. After all, the two had different ideas. The housekeeper thought about how to connect with Kant reasonably, but Kant thought about himself. I was stalked, so I drove straight over, and at the end made a death threat—if you follow me again, I'll **** kill you.

The housekeeper at the time was very angry, thinking that Kant was too crazy, and he was very disrespectful.

Later, the eldest prince's people directly launched a pursuit operation. Kant was in a bad situation. The old housekeeper took advantage of the situation and used the group of greenskins to help. Who knows that those greenskins are not stupid at all - but this is not the point, when they arrived at the scene , several elite mages, dozens of powerful knights, and soldiers of considerable size all died cleanly, and the battlefield was extremely terrifying, as if it had been plowed three times by a giant dragon.

When the old housekeeper saw this, Fang Jue was afraid, if there was a conflict at that time, or Kant had murderous intentions against him... Then he asked himself, the ending would definitely not be too good.

Now we meet again on this occasion...

The old butler sighed in his heart.

He could probably guess what Kant was thinking.

Think about it, that night, he appeared first to buy a car, but was rejected. Immediately, a large number of pursuers swarmed. From a logical point of view, there is a logical connection between the two.

- was misunderstood.

The white-haired girl was one of the heirs of the Vidal family. Her name was Leona. When she saw Kant, she felt that his temperament and eyes were familiar. Then he realized that the killing intent of the other party was aimed at the old housekeeper behind him.

When the girl looked back, she saw that her old housekeeper was a little pale, with a hint of fear in her grievance. In the flash of lightning, Leona suddenly woke up.

Shit, what a coincidence?

She also realized why she felt that the other person's eyes and temperament were so familiar - Damn, Tina is also virtuous now.

A few days ago, when she heard that Huisha had an accident and Tina raised the flag, she set off for the north to see if she could help, and was harassed by the honest and introverted Tina in the past. When the blockage came back, she choked so much that she hadn't had a good meal for a few days, and felt that she had been greatly insulted.

—Gan your mother, can I be the same as Hannah’s [beep-] child! You don't **** believe me.

However, now these are not the point.

Leona cheered in her heart.

Finally did not miss it! He was actually in the city!

In a happy mood, Leona even smiled at Kant for the first time, and then began to look at this Aurora, Kaizi, who Tina never forgot, so she looked like this.

Not at all like the peerless shovel who killed the entire Huisha collar in one day.

Just as the doubts arose in her heart, Leona thought of a reasonable explanation—that's right, this kind of Kaizi, who is usually quiet and obedient like a little babbling, would kill the whole family without leaving a living if he became mad. A sense of contrast is what makes it exciting, and Tina's eyesight is really good.

How could such a good thing happen to her.

Inadvertently, Leona's eyes were filled with a bit of scrutiny similar to that of an idiot.

Kant didn't notice the white-haired girl's eyes.

He narrowed his eyes and focused all his attention on the old butler.

The chase that night, after interrogation, although it had nothing to do with the Vidal family, the old man appeared just right before, which was originally a very strange thing. Kant did not continue to investigate because he was in a hurry and did not want to do much. Fan was inexplicably teleported to Valentine City, and the other party, an imperial man, happened to appear here, which was too intriguing.

Once was a coincidence, what about the second time?

There must be a deeper reason and logic for this.

Between the lights and flint, Kant couldn't stop thinking.

If he encounters this guy on the street, then he will most likely consider doing it, first stop this guy, interrogate him, and the reason will be revealed, but this is the city hall...

At this moment, a calm and elegant voice sounded: "Mr. Hong San."

Kant turned back.

Saw the mayor sitting on the main seat.

He had asked Hong San about the mayor before.

Hong San said that the mayor is a very standard Goethe, so the image of a white barbarian with five big, three thick, and a large beard immediately appeared in Kant's mind, but from the way the city lord decided to move afterward, it seems that , Kant thought he was a bright-faced, cunning and heartless conspirators.

But neither.

The mayor is a well-mannered young man, probably in his thirties, with a big back and a monocle. He looks gentle, handsome, and looks like an elite.

- Human and dog-like.

When ordinary people see the gentle and elegant temperament of the mayor, they will unknowingly lower their posture and express their respect, because this natural noble atmosphere is indeed intimidating, but Kant is different.

Just as some girls see girls in their class who are charming, glamorous, and worthless in licking dogs, they will curse in their hearts [beep-] goods, straight men like Kant see this kind of tidy up all over the body. When the neat, unsmiling, noble and cool elites are handsome, they will also secretly scold you for pretending to be your grandma's legs.

Damn, such a young mayor must have used some tricks, hmph, is there anyone in the family who is amazing? Look at Cleveland, his father is still the Prime Minister, and he is still a knight.

-Kant slandered two words in his heart, and selectively ignored the fact that "if Dad is not the prime minister, how can Cleveland be the guardian knight of Princess Tina".

The mayor got up and walked to Hong San, shook hands with him, his expression was calm, and he said: "Welcome, Mr. Hong San, please take a seat, we are about to discuss this issue - at this critical juncture, you and your Friends, what can you do for this city?"

After he finished speaking, he glanced at Kant with a puzzled look on his face: "This is..."

Hong San hurriedly introduced: "Mr. Mayor, this is my mentor's classmate, Mr. Dong Zhuo. In our culture, he is my elder. He was traveling in the mainland and knew about me, so he rushed here to ask Give me a hand, and I invite him to be our organization's chief military staff..."

"Since it is recognized by you, it must be very talented." The mayor smiled at Kant and stretched out his hand, "Nick Valentine, mayor of this city, welcome, Mr. Dong, I hope you can come Next, play an important role and become our reliance, and I look forward to your performance."

Kant stretched out his hand, and the two shook it lightly, then separated.

Then Mayor Nick showed a strange look and looked at Hong San: "... Chief Military Staff Officer?"

Hong San showed an embarrassed yet polite smile and nodded.

Mayor Nick didn't get to the bottom of it, but stretched out his hand and said, "You two, please sit down."

He turned his head to the secretary beside him and said, "Also arrange a seat for this Mr. Dong."

The old housekeeper stood behind Leona, and the guards and deputies of the others also stood by themselves. According to convention, Kant's identity at this time was a follower, and he had to stand behind Hong San, while the mayor's The order was obviously a courtesy - Hong San did not dare to ask Kant to thank the mayor, so he had to do it himself.

There are also different seats. The long conference table is naturally the more prestigious the position closer to the mayor.

The seats of Kant and Hong San are at the back. It can be seen that the team of Hong San is not too valued by the mayor. As an important reinforcement force, then Kant simply considers running.

He sat down calmly, and had no feeling about the problem of low seating. After all, he was just here to watch the show, and he didn't have any sense of participation, so he wouldn't worry about sorting and face issues.

More importantly, he also has the title of "Goethe's Consort". With this level of identity, participating in a meeting in Valentine City will have a feeling of making a fortune in a white dragon fish suit, and it will only be interesting.

As for Hong San... He wouldn't even care.

As soon as the two sat down, the mayor said, "Sorry for keeping you waiting, Miss Leona, I will explain and respond to your protests and demands..."

The girl raised her eyebrows and sneered: "Explain? Could it be that we were detained in Valentine City because we were afraid that we would be caught by elves after we left the city, and was it to protect us?"

Mayor Nick said lightly: "That's not true, after all, according to Princess Tina, some big figures in the empire have a considerable degree of friendship with the elves, maybe Miss Leona will be regarded as the elves when she encounters the elves after she leaves the city. As for the honored guest, why should I worry about your safety?"

Leona slapped the table and shouted, "Don't let the **** fart like this here, Alex will go to the elves to sell ass, but the old lady has no friendship with those pointed ears!"

"yes?"

Nick said: "But regardless of whether you have a personal friendship with the elves, I will keep you. This is not a protection, but a request. I ask you to stay here and defend the city with us."

Leona laughed angrily: "Why?"

Nick picked up a few documents from the table: "Just because your family has been doing business in Goethe over the years and earned a lot of gold coins, this Vidal City alone has a very impressive trade record."

"Miss Leona, I can tell you responsibly that imperial merchants do business in Goethe's land, accumulate wealth, make huge profits, re-sell goods, and earn high price differences. The accumulated money and the extravagant splurge are all derived from the wealth created by the hard work of the Goethe people. You use the means of businessmen and the nature of profit-seeking to **** it away, customize prices at will, hype fashion, and create demand. Ask yourself, where are you? How much wealth has Goethe plundered from this land?"

The mayor looked at the girl sharply: "When the war comes, you want to transfer wealth, you want to recover the investment, you want to make up for the loss, whether it is war or peace, the benefits are taken by you - I can tell you clearly You, in Goethe, in Valentine, nothing so cheap!"

"It was the people of Goethe who gave you countless wealth, and now, you must give back to this country."

"All merchants, depending on their personal property and the total transaction amount, must make corresponding contributions to the next Valentine City. You earn too much on weekdays, and now it's time to spit it out, not just Miss Leona. The Vidal Chamber of Commerce, and every gentleman and lord of yours, this city has given you wealth, prestige, status, and glory, and now, it's our turn to pay it back."

Nick slowly stood up and looked at Leona.

The aura of the sharp-spoken silver-haired girl was slowly overwhelmed.

"This is an ultimatum from the people of Valentine, not a demand."

"In the next war, everyone must make their own contribution to the survival of this city, not only civilians and sergeants, but also us high-ranking gentlemen."

The mayor's eyes swept over everyone with different expressions.

"No one is exempt."

Mr. Mayor did not speak impassively or make **** threats, but spoke calmly, but an awe-inspiring chill appeared in the hearts of almost everyone, because they saw the madness in the eyes of the young mayor... That kind of madness at all costs.

Yes, this move will offend the vested interests of Valentine City, and will also damage the enthusiasm of the businessmen and Valentine's reputation, but so what? If the city is broken, all this will be of no importance. If Goethe perishes, then what is the international public opinion and reputation and the attitude of the big chamber of commerce?

In the silence, Kant exhaled slowly.

He thought of Captain Oswald, Sister Bedra, and Cleveland... On the night of Huisha, the Goethes displayed an almost brutal resoluteness.

Hong San was right.

The mayor...is a standard Goethe.

probably.

PS2: I feel that the content of Total War Three Kingdoms is not perfect enough. It needs a few DLCs to enhance it. The most important thing is... the character portraits are replaced by mods. I am afraid that the size of the mother is teasing me.
