Civilization: Beyond Two Worlds

Chapter 212: messenger

The night was dim, and the sky showed signs of brightening, and the Hummer stopped in a low place.

More than a dozen locomotives came from everywhere, circled, and then stopped. A group of Yelu screamed in agony. Probably from now on, these greenskins must have another hobby.

The three of Kant got out of the car and quickly freed the dumplings tied to the green leather seat. A group of poor people from the Vidal Chamber of Commerce were beaten to death. Knowing that, fortunately, the guards were strong, while the weak servants drank precious potions in advance to temporarily increase their endurance and physical strength, so they were not forced to death.

But after most people were relieved, they couldn't bear it anymore and vomited.

Hong San checked the situation of everyone, and then said to Kant: "Most of them are almost out of strength and need to rest, and they can't stand that kind of high-intensity maneuver retreat in a short time."

One more meal, even if he drank the potion, he would die.

Kant asked, "Will the elves still come after me?"

"Theoretically, they will be relentless in pursuit, but for some reason, their enthusiasm for pursuit is not high."

Hong San frowned: "Could it be that the Elf Commander was self-defeating, thinking that our breakthrough yesterday was just to mislead them, but in fact you are still hiding in the city? That's not right, is he so sure?"

Last night, the Twilight Chapter dispatched to pursue the pursuit, and the situation was not very good. After all, they were elf cavalry, their mounts were brave and strong, and their soldiers were superb in handling. Most importantly, they were even more familiar with the terrain around Valentine than Kant and his party. They even split up and outflanked, wanting to fight an encirclement and suppression war.

Fortunately, our own side is also a mobile unit, and it is at least two times ahead of the opponent's mobile unit. The rangers who are skilled in riding and shooting are quickly taught by the Autobots' guns and rockets to become elves, and the chariots of the greenskins. The messy and garish weapons on it also made a great contribution.

However, it seems that it was Kant who played a decisive role.

When Kant joined the battle, leaned out from the top of the Humvee, pulled out his dual guns, and shot around scoldingly, the elven cavalry who had rushed to the very close range was in chaos, and the handy and well-trained war deer steeds neighed one after another. Jumping and running around, he never listened to the master's command again, and the more frightened Kant looked, the more frightened he became.

There was even an elf archer who was ready to shoot with a bow and arrow. The spirit deer under his crotch simply stumbled and fell to the ground, knocking the owner upside down. It was really evil.

This isn't new, but it's still weird.

When he was on the island of Saint India, he was always free from mosquitoes, flies and ants. When he was in his hometown on Earth, he also scared chickens, ducks and dogs to jump around. Kant attributed this to the magical animals. They have been around for a long time, and it is inevitable that they will get some breath - this is not even magic, because many animals on earth will also fall to the ground when they smell the smell of top predators such as tigers.

But the strange thing is that the Moon Moon Dynasty is so powerful, and the beasts must have undergone countless years of improved breeding and careful training. Whether it is blood, strength or courage, they must be much stronger than the chickens, ducks, cats and dogs in the countryside of the earth, but yesterday The performance of these war deer and war horses in the evening is even worse than that of the dogs in their hometown.

After much deliberation, there is only one explanation.

That is, among the magical animals, there is a beast who has a lot of origins with elves before, and even the seniority is too big to form this kind of special attack-level bloodline suppression...

And most of this origin is the evil fate, that is, the enemy.

Otherwise, the kangaroos on the Sacred Seal Island were so cool to kill elves, and no one jumped out to say no.

All kinds of conjectures and thoughts went through Kant's mind once, that is, when the strong enemy was gone, he had time to think about it, but after all, it was just a guess, and he still couldn't make a plan.

Forget it, it's a good thing anyway.

Hong San volunteered to inspect the surroundings. Kant asked the two greenskins to follow him, and immediately looked at Leona: "Leaving Valentine City, you are also out of danger. What are your plans?"

Leona was checking the physical condition of the members of the chamber of commerce one by one. After hearing this, her body froze, her back turned to Kant, and she pretended to be relaxed: "I will listen to your arrangements. Leave us wherever you think is convenient."

The old housekeeper on one side winked desperately at Kant, with a pleading look on his face. Kant knew what the other party meant, but now he himself was in a turmoil and urgently needed to find a place to think and be quiet. Mood to pay attention to and care about other things.

He thought for a moment, then said softly: "As you are the heir of the Vidal Chamber of Commerce, even if you encounter the elf army, the other party will not be embarrassed. As for the encounter with the Goethe army, I will leave you a proof... Ah, I don't know if there is any. Use it, if the elves take the opportunity to mess with me after the city is broken, my reputation will also deteriorate."

In the next sentence, it revealed the meaning of saying goodbye.

Leona squatted in front of a maid to check on her situation at this time, and turned her back to Kant like this, she heard the tears rolling down like beads, and bit her lip.

Looking back on the past few days, it really seems like a dream.

She was born in a prominent family in the empire, grew up under the doting of her father and brother, and has great business talent and talent, which can be said to have taken all the benefits of the world.

Family background, appearance, achievements, everything, if nothing else, just look at her good behavior and habits, and you will know how unscrupulous her growth trajectory is.

Before that, her life was smooth sailing with almost no twists and turns. However, a few days ago, for the sake of loyalty and to slap Tina's face, she took a risk and stepped into a foreign country caught in the war.

He came to Goethe in a confused way, met Kant in a confused way, was trapped in the city in a confused way, was protected by Kant in a confused way, and even broke out of the city in a confused way.

Now they are also vaguely separated.

For a while, she didn't know how to describe her mood at this time, sour, disappointed, regretful... It was like a bottle of bitter wine that had been stored for a long time, containing many flavors.

Yes, he has broken through, he still has a lot of things to do, and his mission has been completed, Kant already knows what Tina is doing now, and she has done her best.

So, should we part? Are you going home?

But in this mixed sourness and loss of mind, there was still a trace of impulse that made her panic.

That kind of emotion from the heart, calling her to do something.

Because she has heard...

But this guy... he's probably nothing... to me...

After all he said so...

Leona was worried about the loss, and heard Kant say: "Forget it, who knows if Goethe and the elves will be reasonable, who knows if there are any robbers in the army, I still can't rest assured..."

The girl raised her head suddenly, and her eyes flashed brightly, like stars.

Then came Kant's words: "So I'll send you to the Gladiolus Legion..."

The silver-haired girl turned around and jumped up, roaring, "—You really are playing with me, aren't you!"

About half an hour later, the team was back on the road. This time, it was not as fast as at night, so it was not too bumpy. The people from the Vidal Chamber of Commerce could barely bear it.

In the Humvee, Kant and Leona were the only two left. Hong San was a shrewd person, and he went for a ride on the pretext of being a king and a knight.

A silence, two thoughts.

Kant was in the driver's seat, Leona was in the passenger seat, and neither of them spoke.

This is an unheard of and unseen vehicle. All the furnishings in the car are so novel, but these are completely irrelevant to Leona. She frowned, her heart was numb, and she sometimes gnashed her teeth and smirked unconsciously. , sometimes with a look of annoyance and resistance.

Suddenly, Kant turned his head in the corner of his eyes, and the girl's heart moved, and she quickly calmed down and sat upright, and then heard Kant ask, "What kind of person is Tina's second brother?"

"…"

Leona almost lost her breath, and took a few deep breaths to calm herself down.

- Damn, I'm a dog if I think about all that mess! What can such a messy man think! What is the spring of my mother!

- Wake up, wake up! Now these thoughts and impulses are just because the mood during the siege was too depressed, so that he became dependent on him. Some nobles domesticated their servants like this, and it will be fine after a while! Only Tina would want such a guy, my mother is not uncommon!

Leona did some serious psychological construction, and then said coldly, "Ask him why?"

Kant said: "If you are a mad bastard, you must not be left there."

— Calm down, calm down, he just sees you as a friend.

Leona snorted: "Then why are you asking me? All I know is what he looks like on the surface. How can I know a person's nature until the critical moment? You have to experience a lot of things together before you can. I'll see the true face of this man."

Speaking of which, the girl gritted her teeth quite a bit.

Kant nodded and said, "That's right, you can see through it."

- I see you through!

Leona barely suppressed the urge to roll her eyes: "So what are your plans?"

Kant let out a long sigh, looking a little dazed and sparse.

Some things, even if they have been anticipated and prepared in advance, are still unpleasant when they actually happen, their intentions are trampled on, their contributions are obliterated, and their achievements are criticized.

This is the first time he has tried his best to do the right thing for others since he came to another world.

"I don't know," he whispered.

Leona looked out the window and said lightly: "Then before you really make a decision, go to Tina, maybe you will change your mind, and let her comfort you with those overgrown breasts, otherwise you will volunteer for Goethe did these things, suffered so much grievance, and didn't get anything, and it was a big loss."

Kant shook his head and said, "Let's talk about it."

Leona turned around and glanced at him: "Where on earth are you living?"

Kant was silent for a moment: "A place where there are less bad people than here."

"No wonder." Leona said softly, "Then the people in your hometown must all live prosperously."

Kant turned to look at her.

The girl leaned her head against the window and looked out at the swept-back scenery: "I was probably ten or so people in the world when I realized that this world is not just about loving family members, courteous guests and meek and obedient servants. When I was two or three years old, I started to learn to do business, you know, the most shameless, the most dishonest, the most cannibalistic, if not a businessman, most likely an official.”

"I have seen many bad people's faces. Of course, bad people are not just them. Rich people will become bad, and powerful people will also become bad, but these people's badness is in their bones, on the surface. They are very elegant and kind in appearance, while some people are rotten on the surface and not necessarily good in their bones."

"Later I realized that sometimes even if it's only superficially good, it's good for the country and society, and it's much better than everyone's bad looks."

"But some people are rotten on the inside and rotten on the outside. I gradually became interested in this, and I observed and concluded that, not to talk about the true temperament on the inside, but to look at the surface, those who have money, power, and worry-free life are probably not. Rotten, and those from humble backgrounds and living on the streets are almost all rotten people."

"Sometimes I wonder, if those rotten people from humble backgrounds have money, food and clothing, and an education, will they become the kind of people who look good on the surface but are still rotten in their bones?"

"If that's the case, then the difference between them and those wealthy aristocrats seems to be only the possession of money and power. The nature is the same. Is the so-called bloodline a lie and deceit?"

"Unfortunately, there is no if."

Leona sighed: "No one gives them money, no one gives them a better life, no one can change their destiny, so they are destined to be bad people, just as bad as they appear."

When she said this, she was suddenly shocked and smiled apologetically: "It's just a feeling."

Kant's eyes flashed, thoughtful, just about to speak, suddenly he heard Iron Son say: "Father, I'm sorry to disturb you, I have compared the map, and we are close to our destination."

Kant's expression moved slightly and the topic ended.

Nick pointed out the marching route of the Gladiolus Legion in his heart, but when the army starts, there are always variables along the way, and the direction of travel may be changed temporarily. A hiding spot in Rentan, this is where the Gladiolus Legion will inevitably pass.

Kant said lightly: "Stop here."

Hong San led a few green skins to patrol and guard against ambush. The other green skins were also ready. Kant turned to the roof of the car, took out the map given by Nick, and looked around: "The route is good, but I didn't see it on the road. The trail of the army's advance means that it has not come yet, and since this is the case, we will follow this road..."

At this moment, there was a commotion not far away, and everyone was shocked. After a while, they saw Hong San walking towards here with a person on his back, and his expression was a little suspicious.

The man was dressed in peasant clothes, and his body was dirty, but he was not as shy and fearful as the commoners at the bottom, but had a sad look.

He didn't resist, but his footsteps were a little vain, he staggered towards this side, saw Kant at a glance, and said softly, "Is that His Highness Kant?"

Kant put down the map in his hand and jumped out of the car: "It's me, who are you?"

The man swayed, and then said tragically: "It's just a messenger with a mission. I am ordered to wait for you here and deliver a letter to you."

Kant had a bad feeling in his heart: "On whose order?"

The messenger laughed, but tears fell down: "Nick Valentine, he is my master. His Royal Highness Kant, the master said that you will arrive in three days at the latest. You are early, and I would rather never wait for you. Come."
