Civilization: Beyond Two Worlds

“What’s it saying?” Cleveland asked.

The knight did not understand the language of the Cathay Empire very well. Previously, when the parrot chirped at him, he could only understand crude and superficial curses like “your mother is dead”. He could not understand the other curses like “cuckold” and “Caucasian”.

Not to mention a term like “Two Flowers” that came from another world.

Kang De took a deep breath and said simply, “It’s a red-headed parrot. When it discovers a dangerous enemy, its red hair will turn green. Two Flowers means that there are two enemies, and the Caucasian…”

He looked at Mr. Knight with an awkward expression.

However, his gaze already explained everything.

The knight’s expression suddenly changed. “Excuse me!”

He immediately abandoned Kang De and ran towards the entrance of the valley.

“D*mn.” Kang De was dumbfounded, “Why is the black beast out now? The time is not right…”

For a year, the black beasts would always appear every seven days. There might be many differences, but the time was always exactly the same, like heroes being invincible.

However, only three days had passed since he cleaned up the black beast.

No matter what, now was not the time to think about this.

Bring out the weapons.

Cleveland ran out of the valley and along the path he had come. Suddenly, he heard a low roar behind him. He had never heard that sound before.

Looking back, he saw Mr. Kang De riding a strange mechanical object towards him at an extremely fast speed.

“Mr. Kang De!”

Kang De stopped beside him on a locomotive. “There’s no time to explain. Get in!”

“…Alright!”

Without a word, the knight sat in the back seat and held Kang De’s waist. “Please!”

“Be careful. The terrain here is not good. I’ve never ridden so fast…” Kang De put on his helmet and said in a low voice, “If you fall later, remember to protect yourself!”

“This is something we knights are trained for, Mr. Kang De,” Cleveland said. “Please feel free to charge.”

Kang De took a deep breath and twisted the accelerator. The locomotive’s engine roared softly. The cylinder brewed with an explosive roar. The tires scratched the ground, dust flew, and he rode away.

On Earth, Kang De’s driving skills were not bad. He had learned this from his family and his mother.

In this aspect, he was more like his father. The father and son both emphasized that a gentleman should not put himself in danger. He was calm and liked silence, and he did not like to take risks. However, his mother was different. She was more explosive and liked all kinds of challenges. She often pulled Kang De along. Skiing, rock climbing, parachuting, and so on were all her favorites.

Coupled with the fact that Father Kang De was working in Africa all year round and that Kang De lived in the country with his mother, over time, he had been taught by his mother to be good at racing. Of course, he was still elegant and easygoing. He would speak sweetly at any time.

However, on the other hand, if not for his mother subtly instilling some useful and useless knowledge in him all year round, such as life skills like arson and explosions, he would probably not be living better on this deserted island in the other world than he was now. Of course, the same went for his racing skills.

Racing could relieve mental pressure.

When his mother was angered by the idiotic students and parents in the school, her blood flow was in the wrong direction, but she could not break their heads. She went to the racing arena to race round after round. Sometimes, she drove a racing car, and sometimes, she rode a locomotive. When she drove the racing car, Kang De would occasionally accompany her in the front passenger seat. He would always hear his mother grabbing the steering wheel and muttering something like “I’ll kill you stupid people”.

Regarding this situation, the elementary school student, Kang De, trembled. The junior high student, Kang De, leaned against the window and sighed. The high school student, Kang De, already had his own opinion. When his father returned to the country for a vacation, the two of them discussed and coaxed and tricked Miss Li to a famous psychologist to evaluate her.

His mother was doing questions inside while the father and son looked at each other outside. After dozens of minutes, laughter sounded from inside. The father and son stuck their heads out and glanced. They saw that his mother and the psychologist had already hit it off at first sight and become good friends. If they continued to chat, they would probably become sworn sisters on the spot.

There was naturally no need to mention the psychological evaluation results. It was extremely healthy.

That was a long time ago.

Fate was mysterious but cruel. The current Kang De had actually already arrived in another world and had gradually fallen in love with racing. Of course, he only did it on a relatively flat road and had done all the protective work. Moreover, his body had been strengthened by crystals, so there was no danger.

Just like how there were friends and relatives who advised their mother not to bring her child along even if she liked racing, their mother would answer that it was precisely because she brought her son along that there was no danger at all.

Now, Kang De truly understood this sentence.

Because he had the most important concern in his heart, there would not be problems.

Now, he really wanted to go home.

The locomotive roared and sprinted like an angry beast. It rushed across the long and narrow island. Amidst the roar of the engine, they vaguely heard the roar of a beast. They were already very close to Goethe’s camp.

The knight exerted strength in his legs and steadily stood up to look into the distance at a speed that did not affect the balance of the locomotive. “Mr. Kang De, there are far more than two enemy targets. My people are forming a formation to defend. Your animal companions are helping, but the situation has fallen into a deadlock. We need to think of a way to break the balance of the battlefield.”

Kang De thought for a moment. In terms of tactics, an experienced knight should be stronger than him.

He asked, “What do you think?”

“I don’t know Mr. Kang De’s true combat strength. You always seem to have performance and ability that exceed our imagination. Therefore, we’ll split up. I’ll get out of the bay in front and raid back to the camp to retrieve my equipment and weapons and further organize a defense counterattack. As for Mr. Kang De…”

The knight said, “Please do whatever you want and see what you can do.”

Kang De said, “Alright.”

“In that case,” the knight behind him said, “I need a weapon.”

Kang De steadily controlled the speeding locomotive. “That sword is for you.”

The knight was stunned, “Just lend me an axe. I only need to return to the camp to obtain my weapons and equipment. This enchanted weapon…”

“Cut the crap.”

“…Yes.”

The knight held the famous sword with three enchantments and looked ahead, calculating the location and strength of his speed. He said, “Please pay attention, I’m going to jump.”

The locomotive slowed down, turned, and swung its tail. Knight Ape rolled. He turned to look at the distant Kang De and held the short sword in front of him. He strode over the rocks on the slope and approached the chaotic camp.

As for Kang De, he continued to run along the gentle grass.

The terrain here had already become complicated. The place where the Goethe people set up camp was good and bad. Although the terrain was easy to defend and difficult to attack, that was for human enemies. To the black beasts with shocking jumping and climbing ability and agile movements, the defense effect was not very good.

Moreover, the speed and difficulty of driving the locomotive were greatly affected.

Kang De drove and sped. He wanted to find a high point to look down at the battle. Suddenly, the wind flashed above. A black beast pounced from behind the rock. It looked like a tiger or a leopard, and its eyes were black flames. Its neck stretched out with long feathers.

The black beast came extremely quickly. Kang De’s eyes flashed. He raised his hand and took out the shotgun. He fired from the front. The powerful rubber bullet flew through the air and struck the black beast’s abdomen.

The fatal ability of the rubber bullet was far inferior to a conventional bullet, but it had a huge stopping effect. The black beast let out a painful wail and rolled to the ground. Kang De had already driven past.

The beast roared and got up. In the next moment, a strong wind howled. A fire axe flew over and struck the black beast’s head, almost splitting its hard head in half. Kang De drove back and reached out to pull the fire axe from the running locomotive. The black beast’s incomplete corpse twitched and fell to the ground.

He stopped the car.

Kang De kept twisting the throttle.

The locomotive let out low roars.

The reason why he returned was because wild beasts emitting black gas had appeared around him.

This was an unprecedented number. He had been here for a year and had never seen so many black beasts appear at the same time… What was going on?

The huge and magnificent altar suddenly appeared in Kang De’s mind.

If anything unusual had happened recently, one was that Tina and the others had gone to the island. The second was that he had been carried to that altar by the animals and awakened to this mysterious ability.

His intuition told him that the sudden appearance of a large number of black beasts was related to the second matter.

This was because the black beasts stared at him, and their gazes became different from before.

Before this, the black beasts only treated all living beings as enemies and wanted to kill all living beings. Now, their hostility towards him had become very strong, surpassing their hatred for living beings, as if he was their lifelong enemy.

Was it also related to the obtaining of that ability?

Everything was unknown.

However, one thing was certain.

Kang De muttered, “So many crystals…”

The black beasts roared softly. It was the coordinated signal that they were about to attack.

The first rule of battle—to eliminate the enemies as much as possible along the way. If necessary, try to avoid close combat and utilize the speed advantage.

“Let’s make a big commotion.”

Kang De smiled warmly. He held a red crystal sent by Goethe in his hand and focused. He extracted it. The gem disappeared at a speed visible to the naked eye. A hot and surging flame wave rushed into his body. He pressed his hands on the handle and held his breath and focused, guiding the flow of the fire elements.

With a bang, the two tires of the locomotive suddenly ignited with blazing flames. At the same time, the mixed elements absorbed from the white fog on Earth in Kang De’s body surged on their own. This mysterious element was closely related to “Fantasy”. The fantasy product that matched this image was…

Ghost Rider’s huge toy.

Kang De acutely discovered this change, but he did not have the time to think carefully about this new mechanism and phenomenon. He increased his horse’s speed and the locomotive roared, raising a raging wall of fire. The fire elements attached to it made the tires burn, but the mysterious mixed elements protected the wheels and even the body of the vehicle from being burned by the flames. The mount of hell roared with boiling flames, and the flames that burned everything made the black beasts roar and retreat.

It stopped their cooperation.

Kang De drank the potion given by the knight.

Before this, he had secretly extracted this magic medicine and obtained an extremely pure element composition. It was not poisonous, or else he would have extracted a dark green liquid-like element composition. He had tested it.

Therefore, it could be consumed.

He felt this potion flow down his throat and explode.

In an instant, his physical strength increased explosively. The ingredients in the medicine flowed into his entire body and strengthened his body. Kang De glanced at his hand. In his vision, mysterious runes circulated in his muscles. This was the source of strength strengthening.

These runes were also formed by… elements.

In other words…

He temporarily suppressed this thought and twisted the accelerator. He could not be distracted in battle. The burning locomotive roared as it advanced. Kang De took out his fire axe and rushed towards a black beast as fast as lightning. His explosive physical strength increased as he waved his axe. With a bang, a black beast was swept into the air.

His father had said that the Kang family had to use axes.
