Civilization: Beyond Two Worlds

The performance crisis of the dragon race was resolved.

At the very least, the decision-making levels of both sides had already reached a consensus.

Next was the detailed discussion and specific execution.

!!

Tina and the others also knew that the matter had been settled.

Although it was in a private room and isolated the sound, and the people outside did not know what was being discussed inside, they could still determine from their expressions and actions that they were chatting happily.

When they entered, they bowed and entered. When they came out, they put their arms around each other’s shoulders and came out.

Tina and Stella smiled at the same time. Then, the Second Princess strangely discovered that after her sister looked happy, she looked at Kang De and Santos and suddenly sighed melancholically.

—What’s wrong?

A glint suddenly flashed through the eyes of the Dragon Lady who had also seen this scene.

She subconsciously took out a pen and paper from her pocket.

On the other hand, Tina and the gorilla had already welcomed them. The princess pursed her lips and smiled. “You’ve worked hard.”

Before Kang De could speak, Santos played along. “Your Highness Tina, beautiful princess, you have the best husband in the world. The women of the entire continent should be envious of you.”

Tina’s response and smile were very appropriate and beautiful. “Thank you.”

“Don’t thank me. You should thank him properly.” Santos blinked. “It’s not too much to thank him.”

This sounded normal, but on careful taste and color, Tina and Kang De looked at each other. They both recalled what had happened yesterday morning.

At this moment, it was just the two of them with the door closed. No third person saw the girl’s skirt pull up slightly, revealing a hazy and soft milky white fabric that was neither thick nor thin. She closed her slightly bent legs and was gently touched by a hot and slightly trembling hand…

—No matter how much I thank you, it’s not too much.

She did not speak and only lowered her head and smiled. She hugged Kang De’s arm even harder, and her burning body transmitted the temperature, heartbeat, and thoughts.

On the surface, Santos remained calm, but he was very envious. He did not want to stay here to eat food, so he said, “Then let’s get down to business first. Your Highness also has to tell the two princesses the decision we discussed. I also have a mission. Please send someone to bring me to hand over the dragon bones, seal them, and count them…”

He raised his finger and waved it at Kang De, Stella, and Tina. “Two.”

Stella and Tina looked surprised. They did not expect to reach a consensus so easily.

Kang De patted his shoulder. “Yes, two.”

Stella immediately said, “I’ll arrange it. The dragon corpse was sealed immediately. Two warehouses were specially vacated and used mages to create an ice domain to preserve it. There are no flaws.”

“Alright, thank you, Princess Stella. Your Highness Kang De, the ransom will be handed over immediately.”

Kang De frowned and said, “Didn’t we agree? If you leave it with me, I have to spend it on you. How troublesome is it? Just take it back and deal with it with the Dragon Emperor.”

Santos immediately smiled.

The two men looked at each other and revealed sympathetic expressions.

This Prince Kang De was so understanding.

He must have gotten along very well with the Dragon Emperor and could see if they could do business together.

Kang De’s words were particular.

According to the two of them’s previous discussion, fighting a fake competition did not talk about money. In other words, Kang De could use his face in exchange for benefits. Moreover, if he wanted things that could not be bought with money, he did not want dead dragons. If he wanted live dragons, he had to sign a group of dragon mercenaries in Goethe’s name. On the one hand, he could help the dragon race’s defense hype up the dragon cavalry battle group. On the other hand, he could also deepen his connection with Dragon Island and consolidate Goethe’s defense after the war.

Hiring a dragon required money. This was what Kang De had meant when he said not to talk about money. It was equivalent to saying that the huge ransom brought by Dragon Island to redeem the dragon bones had been returned to Dragon Island by Kang De in exchange for a dragon employment team. That money could be treated as a commission.

The process of financial flow was to spend the ransom of the Dragon Clan’s defense and transfer it to Kang De. Kang De sent this money back as employment money. The company’s finances were recorded and then spent as the commission and service fee of the mercenary troops who were about to rush to Goethe.

This logic was not a problem, but Kang De had just said that he would deal with it with the Dragon Emperor.

Clearly, it gave another logic.

Look, the ransom paid to Kang De by appropriation was paid by the company and went through the public account. Sending the dragon team to Goethe was in the interests of the company and to act with Kang De. It was equivalent to a paid vacation for the agents. There was no problem with the cost being paid by the Dragon Defense Company. In other words, according to the logic Kang De gave now, the Dragon Island defense had spent a total of two sums. Firstly, it was to pay Kang De the ransom. Secondly, it was to bear the labor fees of the dragon hiring the team to the platform of Goethe.

Kang De said that he would bring this ransom back to the Dragon Emperor to deal with.

This meant that this ransom fee paid by the company had changed hands with Kang De and was returned to Dragon Island. However, it did not enter the public account. Instead, it entered the private account of the Dragon Emperor and Santos…

30:70, 30:70.

As for the labor fees given to the dragon mercenaries on Dragon Island, he naturally had to pay them again.

However, what was the big deal? In any case, it was the company’s money.

This calm move was clearly very powerful. Prince Kang De was actually so knowledgeable at such a young age and knew how to do things. He was really an outstanding figure among heroes.

Santos revealed a knowing smile and expertly thought about how to give Kang De a kickback. He recalled that this guy had said a few times in a row that he was not interested in money. He was probably not lying. In that case…

With that, he would use the discounted price of his internal employees to choose some things he liked from the treasure vault. When choosing dragons, he would choose a few true female dragons for him. It could be considered loyalty.

Santos had made up his mind and looked at Kang De even more kindly. “Then I’ll get down to business first.”

Kang De said, “Hurry up and come back. Let’s eat together at noon.”

“Alright, of course.”

Santos was about to leave when Stella had already arranged for someone to lead the way. Everyone left the meeting room and was about to bid farewell when they heard the Dragon Lady say, “I’m not going.”

“…”

The Chief Marketing Officer revealed a subtle expression and conveyed with his eyes, “What are you doing again?”

The Dragon Girl said, “I’m dizzy with blood and timid. I don’t dare to look at the corpse.”

—Bullsh*t! Those businesses that were shattered by your punch are all crying!

Before Santos could speak, the Dragon Girl looked at Kang De again and closed her hands in front of her chest. She said with anticipation and poor acting skills, “Your Highness, can I stay here? I’ve admired you for a long time and want to ask you some questions. Can I?”

...

It had to be said that when she was beautiful to a certain extent, she could do whatever she wanted. Even if her acting skills were very bad, her lines were stiff and insincere, her words and actions could be described as cute.

If it was the ugly one, it would be a different story.

—It was originally like this.

However, Kang De had previously heard from Santos that for the sake of those three times his salary, some twisted male adult dragons did not even hesitate to use the shape-shaping spell twice to turn themselves into young dragons and even cultivated false voices. It was simply the largest and most evil thing in the history of the continent. Then the problem was…

He looked at the Dragon Girl with scrutiny, vigilance, and suspicion.

What if this was a pervert?

How smart was Santos? When he saw Kang De’s expression, he guessed what he was thinking. He laughed wildly in his heart and thought to himself, ‘To think that a two-faced dragon like you would have such a day!’

…Forget it.

If he was exposed, he would be beaten to death.

He hurriedly advised, “Prince Kang De has his matters to settle. Why are you staying here? If you want to ask Prince Kang De a question, you can ask at noon. I have something to tell you…”

However, his unnatural tone was still acutely noticed by Kang De.

...

Kang De was first surprised, then horrified.

D*mn.

It was fine if it was the Phoenix King, but this was really a f*cking dog.

After much persuasion, Santos persuaded the Dragon Lady to change her mind. The Dragon Lady looked at Kang De with a trace of doubt in her eyes. She suddenly discovered that the other party was clearly very wary.

It did not exist previously.

Why?

After the people from the Dragon Defense Company left, everyone surrounded Kang De.

Tina was the first to notice that something was wrong with Kang De’s expression. “What’s wrong?”

Kang De said in a subtle tone, “That dragon…”

“Miss Lily?”

—F*ck, she actually gave herself such a name. How shameless.

Kang De criticized in his mind when he heard Tina say, “It feels like a very strange dragon…”

His expression suddenly changed. “Did she do anything strange?”

“What do you mean, Kang De?” Tina said. “When you were negotiating with Mr. Santos, she held a pen and notebook and asked us strange questions…”

Kang De said in a low voice, “Be careful in the future. It might be a male dragon in a female form.”

The expressions of the women changed in unison, then they revealed subtle expressions.

Hillmelia frowned. “What are you talking about?”

“I heard from Santos that it’s precisely because of the misleading nature of the Dragoon novel that many human employers like female dragons who are very young after transforming. The price has been priced very high, so…”

Kang De explained and said angrily, “D*mn, this dragon must have ill intentions. It even said that it admires me. F*ck, it might have dirty and vicious thoughts…”

Stella’s expression became even more subtle. She was about to say something when Tina suddenly pulled her lapel gently. The Second Princess turned to see her little sister smiling at her.

There was a meaning in his smile.

—Isn’t this very good?

Stella was first enlightened, then the subtle feeling in her heart intensified.

She felt that her sister… was a little different?

“Alright, alright. We all know. We’ll avoid her.”

Tina took Kang De’s arm. “Aren’t we going to talk about the outcome of this negotiation?”

Only then did Kang De break free from his “fury blinded by viciousness” and begin to tell him the outcome of the discussion with Santos. By helping the dragons resolve the financial crisis, he could exchange it for Dragon Island not pursuing the third dragon corpse, and obtain a group of dragon mercenaries. It was a good opportunity to support Goethe, which was exhausted and had a bad international environment.

Coupled with Sword Saint Snowfall, the three members of the Tedrell family were both surprised and happy. Only then did Tina know what Santos’s previous words meant. It was really not too much to thank.

Not only could this matter be successfully resolved, but it could also help Goethe greatly.

“Not good, Kang De…”

The princess pressed her face against Kang De’s arm and said softly, “I love you even more. What should I do?”

…Pay attention to the occasion, girl.

As expected, the gorilla shouted enviously and jealously, “You’re here again!”

She thought about it for a long time and had many psychological struggles. In the end, she had to admit in pain that in terms of fighting, she could kill ten Tinas with a finger, but in terms of seducing Kang De, she could not compare to his hair.

—D*mn, I want to do this too. I also want to casually say such a thing…

However, in the end, what he blurted out was what he had learned from Kang De, “You’re so coquettish!”

Tina blushed slightly, but she did not give in at all. In any case, other than Kang De, there were no men here, so she raised her head and said, “I’m only coquettish for Kang De to see! He likes it very much!”

—D*mn it, I want to learn too!

The gorilla was very angry and envious. The words Horus had said to her yesterday and the entire bag of clothes that he had stuffed into her hand in the chaos this morning appeared in her mind. The ones she had stuffed under the bed… did she really have to wear that kind of clothes? Then… it was so strange!

Until now, the gorilla still knew that move.

She hugged Kang De’s arm and shouted aggrievedly, “Kang De! Look at her!”

It was really a little embarrassing.

However, in short, there was finally a rule regarding Dragon Island.

He still had to discuss the exact details, as well as the time, place, and figures of the fake competition, and various emergency plans. He had to tell the Grand Duke because this was a transaction between the country and the country, as well as how to arrange and use the hired dragon team to play the greatest role…

These were all things the Grand Duke, Tina, and the others had to worry about.

As for Kang De, other than giving suggestions and being responsible for implementing them, he had to do something first.

“…That’s the thing.”

Kang De asked, “There’s no psychological burden, right?”

“Let me explain.”

His iron son said in a low voice.

Yes, instead of saying that Kang De was fighting a fake match, it was more like his iron son was fighting. However, the outside world treated the father and son as one. Although that was actually the case… Horus had to do it himself.

Therefore, he had to ask for his opinion.

However, it seemed that the usually obedient and sensible Horus had his own idea.

He said in a muffled voice, “Father, you taught me to be honest and upright. Also, I’ve never lost. I’m a unique mechanical lifeform and have unimaginable strength and mystery for the people of this world. I’ve accepted Tastus’s blessing inheritance and am an absolute overlord who rules the sky. Now, I have to lower my head and admit defeat to a group of slow and stupid flying insects and pretend to lose to them…”

Kang De’s heart skipped a beat.

That was indeed the case.

After all, his iron son also had his own thoughts, personality, and pride. If he could not accept such a thing, he could only think of another way. Fortunately, he only needed one result to fight a fake match, so…

When he thought of this, he heard Horus say, “You have to compensate me.”

D*mn.

Kang De asked, “What compensation?”

His iron son transformed into a human and half-knelt. He looked at him. His large steel face was calm and reliable, and his electronic eyes shone with a reliable wise gaze.

“Father only needs to do one thing. Don’t worry, it’s not a bad thing.”

It said sincerely, “Believe me.”
