Civilization: Beyond Two Worlds

Kang De was a modern person.

He lived in a powerful country that had peacefully risen.

Even if there was civil war half a planet away, it was still far, far away from him.

He did not personally step onto the battlefield. The cruelty of war and the terror of modern weapons were only seen in films and pictures.

A solid head would be shattered by a bomb. The lively and noisy town would be shaken by a grenade. Living people would be roasted by the white phosphorus combustion bomb. He knew the logic.

However, he did not see it with his own eyes.

At most, he saw the flat face spread out in the driver's seat in front of the computer. He only saw the gray dust that soared with a bang in the video and the white shock wave that spread violently for an instant. He only saw the twisted and deformed black corpse and the destroyed mess on the ground in the photo.

The words affected the imagination of the mind, and the videos and pictures attacked the senses of the eyes.

However, all this information was indirect.

Sitting in front of the computer and sighing could only bring sorrow.

Seeing it with his own eyes was suffocating.

War was hell. Only people who had personally experienced it were qualified to comment on it.

Now, he saw it.

Although it was only a small battle, although it was only a successful sneak attack with only seven enemies, he had indeed seen war. He knew from the Goethe people that the elves had a blood feud with Goethe. That principled and forever polite knight had killed all the enemies in a ruthless manner and patrolled the battlefield to kill the survivors one by one.

There was no sorrow or pleasure, only unhesitating slaughter.

The princess beside him was weak, beautiful, and generous. She looked like a dreamy girl who was ignorant of the world and lived in a beautiful palace, but when she saw this bloody killing, she had a matter-of-fact expression.

Kang De watched all this.

He felt the greatest difference between him and them.

These foreign Goethe people knew the war and accepted it, and they were prepared.

Only then did he understand what war was.

War was something that everyone was used to. From civilians to soldiers, from beggars to nobles, even the noblest and cultured people took cruel slaughter for granted.

This was something that modern people who were used to peace and wealth could not imagine.

At this moment, a sense of alienation arose in Kang De's heart.

This was not the battle he had imagined.

The battle he imagined was Miss Fran holding back her shyness and fighting in a beautiful posture. Perhaps her clothes would burst, or they would be shocked by the sudden pull of her wig… There were all kinds of small accidents and relatively funny combat scenes, just like a comedy action movie.

As for the enemies, they would still be beaten to the ground one by one. In the end, they were surprised to discover that this peerless beauty was actually a man. They cried out in pain and expressed that they could not accept it.

It was not like now, where blood splashed and death occurred.

He was stunned for a moment before saying in a low voice, "Aren't we going to capture them alive?"

The princess shook her head and said, "The arrogance of the elves is beyond imagination. They despise humans and are captured by us. It's simply a huge humiliation. They can't wait to die immediately. How can they reveal information to us in order to survive?"

"Kang De, they're different from humans… Because their lifespans are very long, they take life and death very lightly. Ordinary threats can't make them submit. Due to the barrier of culture, we don't know what they're afraid of, so we can't scare them—in terms of torture, we don't have time or tools now."

She was clearly a noble and beautiful woman, but she said such words as if nothing had happened.

Is that so?

Kang De slowly walked forward and avoided the blood on the ground. He looked at the corpse of the elf on the ground.

An elf who died cleanly after his heart was pierced by a sword, an elf who lost his combat ability after his head was smashed by a shield, and an elf whose neck was pierced by a sword.

There were also two elves who had been burned by the incendiary bomb and had been slashed more than ten times on their bodies. Their muscular bodies were covered in burn marks. The flames had not completely extinguished, and the wounds were burning.

Two elves were also killed by the flying sword and shield.

Ferocious wounds, painful expressions, and flowing blood. Apart from their sharp ears, they actually looked no different from humans. Even the blood was red.

Kang De looked at these dead creatures in a daze.

His expression turned very ugly.

In the past, when people read novels and television dramas, those who killed for the first time, or rather, those who saw a miserable corpse for the first time, would vomit. The former was a reaction caused by excessive adrenaline, and the latter was a biological stress reaction… In short, they would vomit.

Kang De's expression turned very ugly because he… did not want to vomit at all.

Instead, he was very calm, his body was very calm.

The slight estrangement he had felt towards the Goethe people and his true understanding of their war with the elves came from the thoughts of the part of him that was a modern Earthling.

Another part of him seemed to feel that this matter was not worth mentioning.

Looking at the corpses on the ground and the two elves who were burned, he even thought of the conflict with the Goethe people the day before. He summoned the spotted swan to pour the gas and threw the lighter without hesitation. If not for the extremely precise flying knife thrown by Cleveland, the corpses would have been filled with Goethe people.

At that time, he did this without any hesitation.

If the killing began at that time, not only would the dozen or so Goethe people present be killed, but all the remaining Goethe people would probably be killed. That was almost certain to happen.

However, Kang De was thinking.

If he had chosen to kill at that time, if the people on the ground were humans like him, killed, beaten, and burned alive, when he woke up from his loss of control, when he ended the killing, when he faced the corpses on the ground and the people he had cruelly killed, would he… vomit?

Kang De's expression was very, very bad, and he even shivered.

He almost thought of the answer.

"…Mr. Kang De?"

The knight's question woke him from his terrifying thoughts.

He looked up.

Cleveland saw his gaze and subconsciously took a step back, assuming a defensive posture.

Soon, the two of them returned to their senses at the same time. Kang De was anxious to hide it, and the knight was shocked. The two of them tacitly skipped the scene just now. The knight offered the spoils of war in his hand.

"A perfect surprise attack."

He said, "Even my mentor can't do better than me when his supernatural power is suppressed… This is not bragging, but I have to thank you for the weapon you provided. Especially this spray, it's really shocking that it can actually cripple the combat strength of two Elven Marines at once."

The pepper spray was used by the police. It was also borrowed from the police station.

That thing had already exceeded the range of what any living being could endure. Even the well-trained soldiers of the Elven Arrow Regiment were caught off guard and their eyes were sprayed. Even if they subconsciously closed their eyes and turned around, they were unable to resist the intense pain that entered their bones and felt like they were being burned. They could not even hold their weapons.

Coupled with the two enchanted weapons that could be considered items on the elves' side and the furious attack of the most famous knight model in the younger generation of Goethe, it was natural for them to resolve the battle in a short period of time.

After all, Miss Fran had the intention to silence them from the beginning.

How could he allow elves who had seen him in female clothes to live?

At this moment, he had already cleaned up the battlefield. He handed over the pepper spray and some spoils of war with both hands, "They're all the most ordinary elven soldiers. They don't have anything too precious on them, but they're still valuable. I found a few accessory talismans on those five people."

"Those two soldiers are slightly better. After all, they're part of the Dragon Fang Soldiers. The sword and bow are both cheap and can be sold for a high price on the continent. The ring has a precise shooting enchantment, but it's much worse than the one I lent you previously. The arrows they carry are also worth collecting…"

He introduced it briefly and said, "If you don't have any objections, please allow me to keep these two broadswords and a huge war bow, as well as half of the arrows. The remaining bow, the remaining arrows, and all the enchanted accessories are yours."

Such a distribution of spoils was no longer just honest.

Especially when Kang De did not do anything.

Kang De was stunned for a moment. He looked at the knight's sincere gaze and the estrangement and alienation that had just arisen dissipated greatly. The other party's kind actions made him feel good.

At the very least, it dispelled that resistance.

He tried his best to dispel the chaos in his heart and wanted to say a few polite words, but the knight said, "Please don't reject me. The reason why we were able to obtain such results was all because of your planning and ideas. In fact…"

In fact, you even provided this female outfit—the knight was too embarrassed to say it.

Kang De composed himself and took the bow and a large bundle of arrows. Then, he put all the accessories into the satchel at his waist, but he left the pepper spray in the knight's hand.

Facing the other party's surprised gaze, Kang De smiled. "I'm not in a hurry to get it back. You still need it."

If he was nervous, he could say some lewd words to relax.

This was his insight gained in the past year.

"…"

Only then did the knight come to his senses and his face turned red.

To be honest, he had to admit that this outfit was very comfortable to wear, especially the material of the stockings. It was simply comparable to eastern silk—but he was f*cking wearing female clothes!

His expression collapsed and he begged, "I think we can do it another way…"

"I think this is quite good. It's the easiest way," Kang De comforted. "Moreover, we'll strictly observe the movements of the elves. If they discover the corpse here and warn their allies, the female temptation plan will immediately stop. However, before that, we have to make the elves feel even more pressure and threat."

The knight felt extremely aggrieved and helpless. He even wanted to stomp his feet.

Then, he realized that this was a terrifying action. It was exactly the same as when his sister threw a tantrum. Oh my god, what was he thinking?

At this moment, Kang De had already bent down and grabbed an elf's foot, dragging him into the grass. "Alright, let's bury the corpse."

When he returned from Earth, he also brought a shovel and handed it to the gorilla to dig the tomb so that he could deal with the corpses of the elves. However, although he knew that there would definitely be casualties, he did not expect the outcome to be like this, such a cruel and neat death.

The knight was stunned for a moment before he went to help. "Let me do this."

Kang De said indifferently, "It's fine."

Cleveland hesitated. In the end, he remembered the look in Kang De's eyes.

Therefore, he whispered, "Mr. Kang De… are you alright?"

Kang De calmly did what he was doing and replied softly, "I'm fine."
