Civilization: Beyond Two Worlds

As the footsteps approached, Aurora Mage Messi Zhu raised his short staff.

But the familiar mana fluctuations came from the front, a flash of lightning flashed away, the magician of Aurora tapped the wand, the sparks flashed, and a voice came from the front: "It's me, safe."

The man in the cloak put down his hood, revealing brown curly hair and a white face with a high nose and deep eyes. This was his friend Eric. The other party carried a small package, put away his staff, and came to Messi Zhu. , place the package on a rag blanket on the ground, and open it.

He scolded: "The price of goods has risen tenfold overnight. I can't believe that this is the Broken Islands, and there are only some kippers, jerky, noodles, and stale fruit..."

Messi Zhu put away his staff and sat down cross-legged. This is a shabby alley, a dark and damp corner, and a shed made of wooden boards. It is their shelter from yesterday to now.

It's hard to describe what happened in the past two days.

After the contract expired, this second-generation Aurora Master originally wanted to go to Kant, but was made difficult by his boss. Yesterday, he was almost arrested and tortured and put into prison.

At the critical moment, Kant's ship jumped over and sent an ultimatum of war to the Broken Isles. Although his old man did not know that there was a fellow Aurora who wanted to defect to him, Messi Zhu tactfully involved the Aurora The dragon's tiger skin, with a threat, left with a great appearance with his abducted best friend.

He has already bought the ticket, and he can set off today, set sail, and arrive at the far port tomorrow night.

But plans are not as quick as change.

When they boarded the ship and were ready to set off, the joint orders of the island owners were communicated to each port, and the rulers of the Broken Isles demanded that the docks be blocked and all ships were prohibited from leaving.

Clouds of war and tumultuous rumors spread.

Meizhu noticed the strange eyes and peeps of the captain and the sailors, found an excuse, and pulled Eric to forcibly disembark the ship. The magic arc of the two mages was very deterrent. A team appeared in this dock area.

"I heard it, obviously" Eric picked up a piece of jerky, "They are confirming the situation of the Aurora on the island, everyone must confirm..."

Messi Zhu's movement of picking up the pear was sluggish for a moment, and he took a deep breath: "These bastards, they are afraid of His Royal Highness Kant's forbidden spell, so they want to take the Aurora as a hostage!"

"It's not just them."

As a spell caster, whether it is knowledge reserve, vision experience or IQ, they are all far beyond ordinary people. In this world where information is blocked and information is underdeveloped, mages are the most knowledgeable intellectuals. Eric just went out for a spin, I guessed the plan of the island owners.

"Everyone is forbidden to leave the island. I have seen it. Without exception, even those big people who come to have fun are restricted from leaving the country. The island owners have already lost red eyes, and they have to bet big."

The brown-haired mage said: "All the residents of the island, all the businessmen from all over the country, and a large number of tourists from all over the world have all become their hostages... A very good account, offending the countries, there is still a chance to make up for it slowly. , but if they lose this time, it's all over for them."

Messina was silent for a moment and sighed heavily.

"Sorry," he said. "Eric, I've got you involved."

He originally thought that this was a sure-fire deal, so he took his friends to join His Highness Kant. His Highness Kant was just hiring people, and with the ability of his companions, he could get better treatment than the Far Harbor side, but now, They could not leave the island, not even completely out of danger.

That **** boss must be looking for himself now.

Now that the entire island is closed, the island owners intend to take all the Aurora descendants as hostages, and it is really justifiable to arrest themselves now. It is both a public business and a private revenge.

The brown-haired mage pouted: "Okay, now is not the time to talk about this. You must keep in mind what you owe me, and you can pay it back to me in the future."

Messi Zhu pondered for a moment, then said slowly, "If, I mean, if the situation is critical, then attack and subdue me, and hand me over..."

Eric raised his eyebrows and stood up suddenly: "Why, do you doubt me?"

"...Nothing, Eric, I know you can be trusted, I only have you as a friend." Messi Zhu also stood up, a little apologetic, "But now... That **** Cotton must be looking for me everywhere, which is also I'm sorry to put you in danger..."

The brown-haired mage shouted: "So what? I'll catch you, hand it over to that **** in Cotton or some other guy, in exchange for some rewards and credit, and then wait for your Highness Kant to step down here, catch me, and strip me. Whole body skin, use a knife to shave off all the muscles of the body, then hang on a pole and howl for three days to die?"

"You keep talking in front of me all day, 'Lord Kant hates traitors the most', 'Sigh, it's all the fault of those imperial guys', I'm a **** imperial guy, if he knows about this, how can he eat my good fruit Maybe hang me on a flagpole, say something like 'Imperial is just unreliable', and then use a knife to stab me..."

Is it possible that Messiah Zhuwei: "I will explain... Sigh, how can His Highness Kant listen to my explanation? This... or let's act separately..."

"-okay!"

Eric said impatiently: "Cotton and the Ryans defenders have seen that I defected with you. What's the point of acting separately? Alas, the house I bought has been repaid for ten years, you can You have to remember it well for me, and you have to pay back what you owe me! Now eat quickly!"

"…Oh."

Only then did the Aurora people sit down, break up the bread and stuff it into his mouth, chewing it carefully.

The two took the time to replenish food and regain their strength.

"Anyway, let's hide like a mouse in the shadows now, let's see if there is a safer hiding place... Then just pray, pray that the new king in your mouth has enough patience and won't smash down with a Forbidden Spell, Destroy us and this **** island to ashes."

"Um."

After the two of them ate for a while, Eric couldn't bear his temper, and said again: "Mei, when you arrived at the far port, and went to join His Highness Kant, what are your plans?"

Messina thought for a while: "Obey orders, gain trust, make achievements, get rewards, buy a lot of land, then marry someone of the same family, have many children, spread branches and leaves, continue blood, if there is a chance, follow His Royal Highness to return together. East."

"...You people from Aurora are surprisingly similar." Eric shook his head and said, "I don't mean this, I mean, the daydream you've been having, are you going to sell it to your new king?"

Messina said stunned: "What?"

"It's the one you often perform, the one that makes the colleagues of the Austrian Guards laugh every time." Eric cleared his throat, imitating the tone of the Aurora, and said solemnly, "I think, Casters should fight like heavy cavalry!"

Messina frowned and said, "I've explained it many times, it's not that we put on heavy armor and ride on horses..."

"Oh, yes, my friend, if it was just this idea, everyone wouldn't be laughing." Eric tutted, "You want us to ride in an iron-coated wagon powered by a magic device, in the vertical stabilizer stage. Casting spells outwards, preferably with a small magic tool - poof, is that a circus?"

"This is not a circus! It's the future of war!"

Messi Zhu blushed: "The battlefield role of the mage regiment is redundant! Expand the arcane position, jointly cast spells, launch long-range attacks under the protection of the infantry array and the two-wing cavalry, this kind of thing, the magic device array and the alchemy division Already doing better than us, and with continuous improvement and improvement, they will become more powerful and last longer than they are now!"

"What is the advantage of the Mage Corps for magic tools? It's mobility! We can attack together with advancing infantry formations and even cavalry units! Why hide behind? As for protection, we can combine alchemy and enchanted armor..."

"…Ah, okay, okay."

Eric held his head: "You have told me dozens of times. Even if I admit that your words are reasonable, what is the use? You should leave this to your Highness Kant."

Messi Zhu was silent for a moment, then nodded slowly: "Yes, I think His Royal Highness Kant will understand."

As a passerby turned fan, as well as Kang Chui, this Aurora Master has a lot of records and experiences with Uncle Kang.

The Battle of Valentin showed its deterrent to the current forbidden spell attack, the Danfeng Lucerne rush to aid battle showed its ability to penetrate thousands of miles across the country, and the battle of Danfeng Lucerne defended the city to let the whole world know the so-called The heroic appearance of the sky overlord, and the battle of the Far Harbor, the battleship of the gods jumped out, making the naval giants all over the world eclipsed.

Sea, land, air, and strategic strikes.

The information and hidden feelings behind this made the young Master Aurora ponder with fear.

But what he cared about the most was the alchemy chariot that rushed forward with rapid firepower during the battle of Danfeng and Lucerne.

He felt that His Royal Highness Kant would definitely understand his own ideas and opinions.

Messina said in a low voice, "When the time comes, I..."

At this moment, Eric's expression suddenly changed, he quickly swallowed the jerky he had chewed, and stood up suddenly. He raised his staff, and a shadow flashed from the staff.

In the distance, their most disgusting voice sounded: "I caught you!"

Meanwhile, off the Broken Isles.

"Unidentified fleet found!"

The magic signal rose and was detected by the nearest mage tower. The signal was transmitted to the tactical station. The mage on duty in the mage tower mobilized the atmospheric perspective mirror to observe the target sea area. When Time received the news, they waited in full force, panicking in their hearts.

Soon, the identity of the unidentified fleet was confirmed.

"Report! Observed the naval flags of the Evening Moon Dynasty, the Holy Empire and the Austrian Council! We are comparing the catalogue of the target battleship and found that the Blue Fleet of the Austrian Council belongs to..."

In the remote conference room on the central island, the island owners quickly went online to confirm and listen to information together. An island owner frowned and said, "Blue Fleet!? Isn't this the council fleet that participated in the Battle of Far Harbor and was captured by Kant? Why did they come here? Could it be that Kant has…”

The island owner showed a resentful look: "Does he want to block the waterway? Does he want to go to war directly? This..."

The old man who was the leader of the alliance waved his hand: "No... If they act according to Kant's orders, they should use the signboard of the so-called rebels, why would they fly the national flag? Send a cruise fleet to negotiate, the mage tower array is activated, and the coastal defense The fortress magic gun is locked, order them to stop immediately, and explain their intention."

The order was issued, the white sails rose in the distant waters, the combined fleets of the navies of various countries have appeared on the sea level, several battleships of the coastal defense fleet of the Broken Islands turned the rudder and sailed, and met at full speed, the mage tower array started buzzing, and the elements illuminated across the sea Here, the powerful defense system of the Broken Isles begins to operate!

"warn!"

The Coastal Defense Fleet of the Broken Islands, the Wind of Winter, the ship master urged the surging sea breeze and sent the captain's voice far away: "You have entered the waters of the Broken Islands! This place complies with international conventions and is owned by the Broken Islands, please Stop immediately, explain your intentions, reveal your identity..."

Moments later, an announcement came across the sea.

"I am the commander of the expeditionary fleet of the Royal Navy of the Evening Moon Dynasty, Commodore Cavisalon. In view of the possibility of an extremely violent extermination war in the Broken Isles, in the name of the Phoenix King and the Silvermoon Council, this fleet has come here, Take the people of Her Majesty the Queen away from the shadow of war and the core of destruction..."

"I am the commander of the Azure Fleet belonging to the Austrian Law Council..."

"I am the interim commander of the Fourth Squadron of the Holy Empire..."

The voice was transmitted far away, causing an uproar among the soldiers of the ships in the Broken Isles, and almost everyone showed a look of consternation, followed by fear - the elf queen, the human emperor, the president of the Arcane Council, these high-ranking monarchs ordered the withdrawal of their citizens? Does this mean that...

The ultimatum received was broadcast live to the private channels of the island owners.

The noble rulers fell silent in unison. Immediately, it was as if the pot had exploded. The solemn and sacred conference room turned into a vegetable market. Even the old man, who had always been calm and peaceful, suddenly opened his eyes.

"Shameless!"

The middle-aged man who was the first to speak yesterday jumped up and said sternly: "They want to take away all the tourists and honorable guests we have appeased! They want to rip off our foundation! They are not allowed to do this! Damn it! How could such a thing happen!"

The graceful woman also said solemnly: "They are clearly prisoners of the Battle of Far Harbor. This must be Kant's trick! We must not agree! Otherwise we will..."

"Then how to stop these fleets?" The red lips and white teeth flashed haze and irritability in the young man's eyes.

The middle-aged population did not choose to say: "Of course they are strictly forbidden to take a step! Otherwise, they will be sunk..."

"No!"

Three or four people spoke out at the same time, and some people jeered: "Sinking? You are quite courageous. You can see clearly that they are not flying the flag of the Tribunal, but the flag of the navy of the three countries! This means that they are now the navies of their respective countries. Sequence's elite battleship! Take over the citizens of your own country under the order of your own monarch. Do you want to sink them? It's not enough to provoke Kant, do you want to provoke the world's three major powers together?"

During the quarrel, the captain of the Cold Winter's Wind bravely raised a warning. This is the national defense power of every country. It prohibits threatening hostile targets from entering the territorial waters. All powers, the consequences shall be borne by the other party.

But... in the world, fairness is a ridiculous joke.

After the warning was issued, there was a thunderous laughter on the opposite side.

Under the eagle eye of the mages, a sailor of the United Fleet climbed to the mast and even the bow, and frantically raised his **** toward the opposite side. Some people even took off their pants and swayed the bird and buttocks, doing all kinds of provocation. A foul language spewed out.

It is still the blue fleet with a very high level of magicization. The rogues push sound waves with arcane magic, and the clamor comes out with the rolling thunder: "Bitch! Grandpas lowered the sails and crossed the hull for you to fight! Send us to see the sea god, if you don't hit you, it will be the day of the sea dog!"

As the navy, they were extremely arrogant and arrogant in the past. When they got ashore, they wanted to fight with the army. This time they fell into the hands of Kant. After several battles, for some reason, not only did he not lose his spirit, but he actually gave birth to a greater sense of superiority.

Now on a field trip, facing the little chicks of the Broken Isles, I can't help but germinate, more arrogant than ever.

In the face of severe warnings from the Broken Islands and even the elemental irradiation of long-range heavy artillery batteries, they did not hesitate to run towards the Broken Islands at full speed without stopping at all.

"Give Way!"

As they marched forward, they shouted: "By the Queen's will, all who stand in the way are the enemies of the dusk moon!"

The navies of the Empire and the Council also shouted their own strong words.

Sweat fell from the cheeks of the captain of the Cold Winter Wind. He frantically signaled to the ship's mage to ask the boss for orders. The island owners did not reply, but the enemy fleet drove straight in carelessly.

But he dared not attack.

Because he knows the consequences of doing so.

While hesitating and embarrassed, the captain's pupils shrank suddenly. The combined fleet moved from far to near. He heard a huge roar, like a roar of a sea beast. Different white boats are coming.

In the Silver Pearl Bay of Agins Island, exclamations and explosions continued. Two figures passed through the smoke and dust, fled in embarrassment, behind the arcane brilliance, and the figures chased after each other.

"Messizhu! Eric! You two traitors and traitors!" Cotton exclaimed frantically, "You can capture it! Otherwise, go to hell! Where else can you escape to? No one will come to save you!"

The pier guards in front came with swords and attacked from front to back. Eric and Messi Zhu stood back to back, looking awkward. Their mana was nearly exhausted. The high-intensity battle used a shield to block the crossbow. , has been exhausted.

Rather, since Eric accidentally exposed his whereabouts and was targeted, the current scene has become a foregone conclusion... This is the Broken Isles after all.

Messina said in a low voice, "Eric..."

"Shut up." The brown-haired mage held a staff and kept pointing at the approaching people, "What should I do?"

"I can't make you die together." Messi Zhu said, "Surrender..."

Cotton looked at the two trapped beasts under the guard of the shield guards, his eyes flashed with cruel pleasure, and then he remembered his uncle's advice, don't kill that Aurora... When he thought of this, he was very unhappy.

Resist it, keep resisting, break his hands and feet or something, it shouldn't matter, right?

I can't kill him, I have to make him suffer more... Hey, wait.

Cotton saw the crowd gathered around him.

Those who want to escape the Broken Isles, but are trapped here because they have no money and no way, these people have no money, so they will not be cared by the island owners, prices are soaring, food is scarce, they are all simmering in resentment, The crime rate is high and fights can happen at any time.

Now...seems like a good fun.

Cotton suddenly said loudly: "Have you seen these two mages? They are the traitors of the Broken Isles! They are Kant's lackeys! They have been sending intelligence information to Kant! The reason why Kant killed the citizens of the Broken Isles, he even wanted to launch War kills us all because of their slander!"

"What are you waiting for? You are here, hungry and tired, all thanks to them! Now I give you a chance to vent your anger! Their mana has bottomed out! Even you can't beat it! Let them see you anger! Yes! Punish them!"

When people are in madness and despair, they are most likely to be incited, because grievances have to be vented, and there must be victims, and Cotton, who wears the robe of a law enforcement officer and leads the army, undoubtedly has great authority. He said who is the criminal, It must be right, and then you can punish the traitor as much as you like.

The people were in a commotion for a moment, and their eyes became more and more bad, and they turned to the two spellcasters who were surrounded by them.

That's right, it wasn't my hands that killed the Aurora people.

Nothing to do with me.

There was a gloomy light in Cotton's eyes.

Messi Zhu took a deep breath and touched the dagger on the outside of his thigh with his right hand.

"Alec..."

He has realized Cotton's vicious trick: "I..."

"Fuck you..." Eric gritted his teeth, "I regret it a little..."

The mob on the dock slowly approached, Eric raised his staff, and the shadow arrow shone: "Who dares!? Come on, whoever gets on will die!"

People stopped, the magical glow terrifying them instinctively.

Cotton shouted from behind: "Stone them!"

Everyone suddenly started to look for stones on the ground, but because of the mysterious power of the mages, they needed the courage of the leader. Cotton picked up a stone from the ground and showed a happy smile. He gestured to the captain beside him: "Let your Let's have some fun too, let's do it together..."

But he suddenly found that the look of the captain of the shield guard was a little wrong.

The crowd outside shouted, "What is that?"

Everyone turned their heads to look, and the sails were raised in the sea in the distance, layer upon layer, and there were battleships pulling out here.

Immediately revealed an unbelievable surprise.

"That is…"

Cotton saw it too, and he gritted his teeth: "Attack! Catch them both! Give me..."

The next moment, Mage Aurora's mana surged, he drummed up the exhausted mana, and a stream of light shone from the staff, rushed into the sky, and exploded a splendid fire, shining like fireworks.

Cotton growled: "Attack!"

There was a loud bang in the distance.

Several black dots rose into the air, passed through the sea waves at an extremely fast speed, and flew towards Akins Island quickly. Cotton roared: "Hit! Throw a stone and give a piece of bread!"

But in an instant, a low-pitched humming sound came from the sky, flashing like electricity, streaks of streamers roaring, the wind was fierce, and the sound of breaking the sky was incessant. With the two mages as the center, the ground exploded and shattered, and the Vulcan machine gun Sweep in a circle, draw a circle of death, and the surrounding mob retreats in fear!

The hurricane blew the robes of the two mages. Messi Zhu and Eric looked up, and several drones flew over their heads and circled in the sky.

The mounted revolving machine gun turned and circled, the camera continued to rotate, and a sound came from the loudspeaker.

"All those with yellow skin and black hair, those who speak loudly, are diligent and upright, are all citizens of the East. Today, under the order of His Royal Highness Kant, the Far Harbor will open the door of convenience and accept the compatriots in the four corners of the country. Anyone who hinders them will be killed without mercy. !"

The drone was hanging in the air, the Vulcan machine gun buzzed, and the man roared, "Go away for me!"

The fleet in the distance has already put down several small boats, rowed out snow and white waves, and rushed towards this side.

Messi Zhu and Eric still stood side by side, the staff in their hands did not put down, but they all knew that they were safe.

Master Aurora took a few breaths: "Do you know why I'm leaving now?"

Eric held back for a while: "I don't regret it now."

The Aurora people laughed out loud.

The speedboats are approaching.

Messi Zhu turned his head to look, the ship was like the ship of His Royal Highness Kant, with no sails and no oars, and a snowy white wave behind him. The water should be the source of power. There were four or five people sitting on each ship, and the bow of the ship was standing. There is a person, the lower body is under the hatch, the upper body is exposed, and the arms are holding a strange magic tool. The magic tool has a long tube aimed at the shore, which is obviously not a decoration.

As they approached, two boats circled around the dock, another boat was docked, and someone stood up and waved to them.

The crowd is automatically separated.

Everyone was avoiding their eyes.

But it doesn't matter.

Messi Zhu turned to look at Cotton behind.

Unwillingness and remorse flickered in the eyes of the former boss.

"Cotton." Aurora raised his hand and swiped under his neck, "Next time we meet, I will kill you with my own hands."

Then he and Eric walked onto the pier.

The man who was beckoning to him had already jumped ashore with a smile on his face. Messizhu looked around and saw that the people on the boat were all Goethes, and the people who greeted him, with black hair and yellow skin, were fellow Aurora.

The young man bowed his hands to himself: "Han Guangcheng in the far port, I would like to hear the name of the hero."

Master Aurora was stunned for a while, and then answered with the ancient ritual taught by his father.

Under the brilliance of the sun, between the sea and the sky, the two bowed to each other.

He smiled slightly: "In Xiameisui, the grass word is Xizhu."
