Civilization: Beyond Two Worlds

Chapter 55: protect you

The knight pushed the push rod of the remote control.

signal reception.

The racing motor inside the casing kicks in immediately, pushing the ram and igniting the disposable lighter.

A clump of flames suddenly lit up.

All it takes is a clump.

The surface of the gas tank was branded with flame strengthening enchantment by Kant, and the tank body was at the limit of its endurance. The flames passed by, and the magic pattern of the flames quickly absorbed it, becoming the last straw that overwhelmed the camel.

The gas tank's ability to withstand elemental enchantments has reached its limit.

Cracks appeared on the surface.

The magic pattern thermally expanded, adding fuel to the fire.

The tank is broken.

Fifteen kilograms of liquefied petroleum gas instantly expanded three hundred times, gasified into an amazing volume of gas, and spread in a violent manner. The physical gaseous shock wave tore apart the fragile internal structure, and the first explosion was turbulent. But the main event is yet to come!

The LPG that broke free spread violently and volatilized, and quickly mixed with the surrounding air. In an instant, the LPG concentration in the air dropped rapidly, that is to say, it dropped to a critical value that could be ignited!

The broken tank still contains a huge amount of flame elements.

The open flame was completed, the volatilized petroleum gas was quickly ignited, and the violent explosion rose with the surging flames, and the second wave of high temperature shocks swept away violently!

The most lethal is never the explosion and burning, but the fragments.

Broken tanks, hidden iron bars, broken elf sword fragments, sharp and sturdy gravel, and violent shock waves pushed these sharp gadgets to spread in all directions.

And the elves who were watching the film attentively were crowded within a few meters in front of the screen.

A physical explosion, a chemical explosion, the time interval between the two explosions was very small, and they happened almost at the same time. They only saw the violent light bursting in front of them, and the rapid heat had already rushed towards them.

Fragments swept across, like cutting leather, and when the fire was rising, the gathered elves had already collapsed like wheat. At such a close distance, even the elves with stronger bodies would have no reason.

This one bomb killed almost all the elves in the camp.

almost.

There were also several sentinels who barely fulfilled their duties, resisted the temptation, and did not stay to see the magical "magic tool", but chose to continue to be on guard.

They heard the violent explosion, saw the rising fire, the sentry tower under their feet was shaking, and the teammates were instantly engulfed by the fire, and the incident happened suddenly and unprepared.

No matter how elite the soldiers are, they will be stunned for a few seconds, not to mention that they are only sailors of the ballista group.

One of the elf sentinels reacted the fastest and immediately grabbed the horn around his waist, but the next moment, a feather arrow came out of the air and shot through his neck from the side.

Next up are two arrows.

The other two Sentinels followed suit.

The kangaroo jumped out with a bow and looked around.

On the other side, the knight also held a sword and shield, strode down, and flew towards the camp.

Kant was about to get up, but the princess grabbed his wrist.

"Kant," she said, "please stay and protect me, it's enough to leave it to the knight."

Kant was startled.

He already understood the intention of the knights just fighting for the remote control, and now he also understands the meaning of Tina.

But he still said: "It doesn't matter, you don't have to take care of me like this..."

Tina said softly: "Kant is our guest of Goethe, we are under your care, and let you get involved in the war between us and the elves, we are very grateful for your help, how can you be infected and seen More gore..."

Kant was silent.

He couldn't tell whether the emotion in his heart was moved or irritated.

For someone who grew up in modern society, killing is a very distant word.

As a civilized person, of course he resists killing intelligent creatures in his heart, but according to the current situation, the war is not far away from him, rather than waiting for killing to find him, it is better for him to adapt to killing and death first.

—His reason says so.

That's the truth.

If you want to leave this island and set foot on the mainland, these things are probably unavoidable...

"Kant didn't kill people, and certainly didn't kill elves... right?"

The girl beside her asked softly.

Kant didn't answer, his body tensed instinctively.

Tina didn't seem to notice his strangeness, but whispered: "There is such a congratulatory message in the creed oath of the Goethe knight...May the clean people be clean all the time."

"This is also the oath and wish of many knights."

"They stained their swords with blood and carried one life after another, so that the people they swore to protect would not be stained with blood, and they carried a heavy weight for the people they swore to protect."

"Because killing...is a very heavy thing."

"Some things, once you start, you can't go back."

She didn't let go of Kant's wrist, but boldly held the opponent's hand gently, the girl looked at Kant calmly and firmly, and said slowly: "I was protected like this since I was a child, although I grew up in the Grand Duke Family, although there are many conspiracies and secret fights in the palace and the capital, my relatives and friends protect me and keep me away from these dark and cruel things."

"There is always a limit to what can be protected."

"My father has always protected our brothers and sisters, shielding us with his broad back, so that we will not witness and experience too much darkness and sin, but he is old and inevitably unable to do anything, so the eldest brother left his father's Protect, stand with him, be stained with blood, face evil, and continue to protect us with our father, so that we can live carefree."

"Next is my sister, then my second brother... We keep growing up, and new situations keep happening. Everyone stands up without hesitation, forcing themselves to accept things they haven't touched, just to protect the people close to them... In the end, there is only one left. I am alone and protected by everyone."

"Now, I also stand up."

She smiled, with a sad and firm smile: "As an ambassador to the empire, lobbying for the imperial capital, this is my duty. When I set off, my brother and sister both cried, and my father didn't come at all. I know why they are sad, because they The youngest family members, who did everything they could to protect, ended up fighting alongside them."

"Kant, I'm ready... to do bad things."

"Breaking my own principles, soaking my hands with blood, and resorting to ulterior motives in order to achieve my goals... If Goethe needs me to do this, I will probably do it."

"I might turn out to be a bad woman."

"This is what my brother and sister once did. Sometimes, you have to give up something to protect something more important..."

"But sometimes I think..." Tina's smile was sad and confused, "My brother and sister faced the darkness and did not hesitate to get their hands dirty. They were trying to protect me from these conspiracies and disputes, and now I am fighting side by side with them, maybe I will do Some of the things they have done, and now, who should I protect?"

Her eyes were fixed on Kant.

The eyes made Kant's heart beat faster.

Sure enough, the girl slowly lowered her head: "Although it's a bit strange to say that, and it's a bit like talking to herself, but I still want to say... I hope to protect Kant."

"If doing something bad can keep Kant clean, free from blood, and from darkness and sadness, then I will definitely do it... I hope to protect Kant."

"…"

"…"

Kant hesitated for a moment.

and many more.

Etc., etc.

Is this... is this a confession?

What's the meaning? It's a bit similar, but it's very abrupt, why did you confess all of a sudden? Did the crystals also strengthen my charisma? But I look in the mirror every day, and I don't see any changes.

In other words, it’s like I often sip on spar, which makes my physical fitness constantly improve, but there is no reference object on the island to compare with humans, so I don’t know how strong I have become, so according to this statement- Don't you know how handsome you are now?

While he was thinking about it, Tina brutally broke his fantasy.

"When... Of course, this sentence has no other meaning at all! After all, Kant is my friend, and he has helped us a lot, even for us, taking the initiative to get involved in the war with the elves, such a kindness is very heavy, no matter whether we Whatever you do is rewarded!"

...then you just promise yourself, you bastard! Saying that there is no way to repay the great kindness and virtue, that is to say, do you have to wait for the next life to get a grass title ring? Can't you try to repay your gratitude for the rest of your life?

"And this is what the Cleveland Cavaliers mean..."

—What do you do with that female knight in this situation? I know he did it out of good intentions, and so did you, so can the two of you have different emotional starting points?

"So, Kant, can you understand me?"

Tina couldn't guess the complicated heart of the innocent man on earth. She took Kant's hand and said solemnly: "War is cruel, and killing is also cruel. In today's world, if a person can live a clean and peaceful life , what a good thing it should be."

"The knight stepped into the real world early to protect me, and for Goethe, I was about to join my brothers and sisters in conspiracy and calculation, but Kant, you are different."

There was an inexplicable light in Tina's eyes, and that expression was either envy or sadness.

"Perhaps, Aurora seems to have become very different..."

She whispered: "Kant must have grown up in a very happy and carefree environment. You give me a very strange feeling... I envy you. So, promise me, you must stay away from killing and don't let yourself Your hands are easily stained with blood, is that okay?"

At this moment, no matter what Kant thought in his heart, but seeing the girl's serious eyes with a hint of pleading sincerity, he nodded mysteriously: "... um."

"Great."

The girl showed a sincere smile.

As if some important mission had been accomplished.

She said seriously: "We will arrange everything, don't worry."

Kant wondered: "What is arranged?"

Tina consciously missed her mouth, and quickly covered up: "It's nothing... Ah, the knight is here!"

While the two were chatting and waiting, Cleveland had already completed the knife at the fastest speed, confirmed that after a lap of the camp, and no more fish slipped through the net, then turned back.

Upon seeing this, the princess said, "Let's go too!"

Kant was suspicious, but didn't say it, they reunited with Cleveland.

"The plan was a success."

The knight said: "The temporary command post has been taken, we should start the next step immediately, Kant, the sound of the explosion just now is very loud, and the light is rising, not only the elves of other outposts on the island will be aware of it, Wayne's Wings The observers of the No. 1 will surely notice this light."

Kant said, "No."

After securing the beachhead command post, the next step is to seize the ship, so be sure to get in touch with the second or fifth boy on the ship in advance, he has already sent pigeons to find parrots.

A pigeon strapped to a handheld video camera faithfully recorded the parrot's yin-beating victories.

For example, when the pigeon found the parrot, it was on the observation deck of the mainmast of Wayne's Wings. The elf observer was sitting on the verge of death, with black blood solidified in the hole between his eyebrows, while the parrot stood on the shoulder of the deceased, facing the camera, deeply. He said solemnly: "monster-kill!"

No matter which eight elves were killed by the parrot, the observer must be one of them. That is to say, although the explosion of the gas tank is dazzling and bright, the Wing of Wayne, which is far at sea, must be ignorant of it.

As for the explosion—sorry, the sea breeze was too strong to hear.

"The observer is dead, and the parrot is on the boat. I have instructed it to wait for an opportunity to act. Seeing that the elf has no observer, and the sea is dark, the chances of the plan being successful are further increased."

Kant said: "There are three boats on the beach. Aang and I will take one, and go to the Wing of Wayne. The two of you will row back to the Goethe camp on the North Second Island and join your people. If the plan to capture the boat is successful, you will If it is too difficult, I will sink the boat and pull it down, which is not troublesome."

Why so positive?

Of course there are benefits.

Most of the main elves have been lured to the shore. Through the pigeon's shooting and reconnaissance, Kant can be sure that at this moment, there are only a few dozen sailors who are responsible for maintaining the ballista on the Wing of Wayne, and there are seven or eight others left. Ten demented wizards, Kant may have hesitated in the past, but the kangaroo's quick arrows gave him a lot of confidence, these magical animals are really not easy people.

With the potion donated by Tina, and the various weapons strengthened by enchantments are also extremely powerful, Kant felt that the risk of this trip would not be too great.

Relatively speaking, the benefits are particularly huge.

There are seventy or eighty mages serving on an elf battleship, even if most of them are junior mages or even apprentices, but there are also powerful spellcasters—for Kant, a powerful spellcaster is equal to each A variety of magical equipment and supplies.

Having magic equipment means there are new enchantments to copy... I mean borrowing.

Besides, this is an elf battleship, and it has a so-called magic attack platform—although I don't know what it is, it must be a good thing.

Therefore, it is better for Mr. Kang to rush up and loot first, so as not to go with the Goethes, and to consider the issue of dividing the spoils - you see, I am alone on the boat, heroically killing the enemy, and taking the spoils is the meaning of the title, you guys Although it didn't catch up, it also avoided the casualties of the firefight. In the end, you still made a profit.

Perfect logic.

- but met a stubborn person.

The knight raised his eyebrows and said: "Being able to fight head-to-head with an elf battleship is an honor that all Goethe navies are passionately pursuing. We will never hide behind our friendly forces, and we will never watch you fight for us. Kant, this is A hard and glorious battle, please leave it to the Goethes."
