Civilization: Beyond Two Worlds

Two corpses lay in front of the door of the magic core cabin.

There was a low mutter in Chinese.

"Not a single one can fight. Not a single one can fight."

The parrot stood on an elf and wiped the blood on its claws with the other party's clothes. It muttered a few words in a low voice and spat out a little flesh and blood.

The magic core cabin was the standard of the elves' main ship. It supported the operation of the magic attack platform and provided elemental affinity support to the entire ship's casters. It also had other important functions and was extremely important. This place was guarded all year round and had a full set of independent safety manuals.

However, this cabin was at the core of the battleship. Generally speaking, the battle had almost been decided since the enemy could fight here. Therefore, the two apprentices guarding it were not too vigilant. Their daily mission was not to guard but to pay attention to the operation of the magic core.

Moreover, even if they were guards, who would be wary of a parrot?

As the children of nature, elves were very loved and revered by the animals. The long-eared creatures were born with an animal affinity and could even command the animals to do some things. When they saw a beautiful parrot with beautiful feathers and knew how to speak in their boring nautical life, who would be wary?

Its little mouth was so sweet. Who wouldn't like it if it said something interesting?

Then, they were dead.

An elf's brain stem was pulled out by the parrot's claw.

The other was bitten by the parrot and its entire throat was torn off.

The parrot wiped its claws clean and rinsed its mouth with the elf's cup. It spread its wings and flew to the door, knocking it. An emerald green halo appeared on the door, and a complicated star map appeared.

The parrot glanced at it and revealed an extremely disdainful gaze, "Little brother, little brother."

It opened its claws and pulled on the star map a few times before the door slowly opened.

Spiritual light flashed. In the cabin, a ball of light was floating in the air. There was a golden hollow shell outside. The crystal base was like an open claw that protected this ball. Strange magic patterns were engraved on the ground. Energy circulated and surged, accumulating huge strength.

The parrot folded its wings and stared at this ball of light for a long time, thinking.

Immediately after, it flew up and aimed at the ball of light. It assumed a phoenix-winged posture and prepared to rush up and claw. However, in the next moment, the parrot hesitated.

It stopped at the side and pecked its feathers, muttering to itself, "Rather than smash, why not snatch?"

After making up its mind, the parrot flew around the ball of light a few times, as if calculating something.

In the end, it raised its sharp claws and rushed to the ground. It slashed forcefully at a certain part of the magic pattern on the ground. Sparks flashed, and the parrot flew out of the cabin without looking back.

Flames surged, and air waves flew. A muffled explosion sounded, shocking the entire ship.

"…What did you say?!"

Rackles flew into a rage and even lost his demeanor as a master to grab the elf in front of him.

"Master, please calm down. There was a small explosion in the magic core cabin and a small fire. Now that the fire has been extinguished, two guards have died…"

The master said angrily, "I don't care how many elves died. I'm asking about the damage!"

"The damage control team has already carried out a preliminary investigation. The magic pattern of the magic core has made a mistake, causing an energy surge. The exact reason is unknown. It might be related to the invisible barrier of the Holy Seal Islands. The damage to the magic core is very small. We only need to reconstruct the magic circuit."

"However, the management team leader doesn't recommend repairing it immediately, because the core can't be used here. Moreover, there's the possibility of it being damaged again. Due to the anti-magic domain, all the variables are uncontrollable."

The apprentice in charge of reporting this news spilled the bad news.

In the end, he hesitated.

The master seemed to have sensed something and said through gritted teeth, "What about the thing I want to hear the most?"

The apprentice lowered his head and quickly said, "However, because the explosion triggered by the magic core has a resonance effect on the entire ship, coupled with the fact that the magic cabin is at the core of the battleship, the vibration and impact of the explosion caused a violent commotion in the entire ship, especially the part that was damaged by the wind and reefs. The damage has further expanded. It's estimated that the repair and inspection time has been extended to more than two days…"

The master was silent for a long time.

He asked, "Did you check for traces of sabotage?"

The apprentice shook his head. "The management team leader thinks that the possibility is almost zero. Although the corpses of the two dead guards have already been destroyed by the explosion, it doesn't look like he killed them because they don't show any signs of resistance or vigilance. Moreover, the magic cabin is surrounded by layers. The probability of a problem is not high…"

The master said, "You can leave."

He left the room and walked towards the captain's room.

"Captain."

After knocking on the door, the master went straight to the point, "The explosion just now caused great damage to the Wayne Wings. The repair time has been extended to two days. I think Sir Taize's plan needs to be changed. I definitely won't allow him to waste two days… Since the Wayne Wings can't participate in the battle, he has to rely on his own strength to find and kill those Goethe people!"

"Otherwise…"

He stared coldly into the captain's eyes. "In two days, the Goethe people can do everything they want. If you don't want those humans to dig out some powerful weapons left behind by the former rebels and kill all the soldiers on the island, you have to pressure Sir Taize."

The master warned, "Don't forget why we're here. Don't forget my premonition."

They had set foot on the forbidden Holy Seal Islands to pursue these Goethe people.

This was because Master Rackles had sensed a certain sign that was extremely bad for the elves in two consecutive meditations… A strong sense of patriotism and responsibility made the elves take risk.

The captain was indecisive. He could not refute the master's thoughts, but he also believed in the experience of soldiers.

"Why don't you…" He asked, "…meditate again?"

The master laughed in anger, "The Holy Seal Islands isolate all supernatural powers. What's the use of meditation?"

The captain thought for a moment and sighed, "Although I have to rely on your wisdom, I have to respect the judgment of a soldier. How about this? Let's go to the shore together and discuss this with Sir Taize."

At this moment, it was already afternoon. The sun had even begun to set in the west. The investigation team had already returned to standby. The master and the captain crossed the sea and met Sir Taize. Then there was a fierce argument.

The master felt that speed was important in war. He had to find the Goethe people as soon as possible to prevent them from discovering anything on the island.

As for Sir Taize, he was even more careful. He felt that the enemy's intentions were unknown and might be plotting a conspiracy. If he ignored everything and plunged into the island, he would fall into the enemy's trap and could not be tricked.

The marine captain said stubbornly, "At the very least, we have to wait until we figure out the enemy's situation and obtain a certain amount of information before continuing to move. Otherwise, dozens of soldiers will die for no reason like before!"

The master roared, "But the warship is broken again. Do you want to bide your time for two days? Sir Taize, you belong to the Royal Navy, not those spoiled idiots in the army who won't mobilize without magic coverage and arrow formation reinforcements. The mission of a soldier is to overcome all difficulties for the interests of the country and great victory!"

Sir Taize wanted to curse back, but he endured it. After all, the other party had an extremely high status.

He sighed. "At least until the reconnaissance team sends back new information."

The master said bluntly, "It's already afternoon. It'll be evening soon. After nightfall, it'll be even harder to monitor the island. How long do you plan to delay?"

The anger in Sir Taize's heart was difficult to describe with words.

—D*mn, I'm so angry.

He had really had enough of a Grand Mage criticizing his tactical arrangements.

Therefore, he said coldly, "There's no need to worry. Our physical fitness is far better than humans. Even at night, elves can still fight, and humans are not our match. Please wait."

Everything that happened on the beach was closely monitored by the pigeon.

The news was sent back.

Kang De looked at the image and felt that it was a pity. "It seems that the heads of the elves are all here. I wonder if the swan can blow them up if it throws a gas tank over… Forget it."

There was a risk.

No matter how simple the elves were, they would feel that something was wrong when they saw a wild swan flying over with a strange big fellow…

Kang De continued to watch the recording. "They're arguing, but I can't see the shape of their mouths clearly, but it's easy to guess that the elves' forces are beginning to shrink. At this moment, the argument must have worked because of my plan. Some elves feel that we should continue forward, while others are conservative and cautious."

"But it doesn't matter."

"You're unwilling to come? Then I'll force you to come."

Kang De turned to look at a row of fireworks on the ground. It was not easy to find this thing.

The power of the elements gathered in his body.

If he injected these fireworks with elements like flames and light, he would definitely be able to explode even more gorgeously. Coupled with things like projection lights…

When these things bloomed in the air, what would the elves think?

—Ah, the ancient ruins have opened!

Indeed, come in.
