Civilization: Beyond Two Worlds Novel - Chapter 463
Chapter 463: 463
F * ck…
The brilliant dragon’s might defeated the disaster that wreaked havoc in West Africa.
The power of the Fire Stealer, the help of the Dragon’s Oath, and the bombardment of the Dragon’s Might by the Dragon Language Magic.
The Graywind swarm was defeated by the same move for the second time.
The only and awe-inspiring Gestalt consciousness system of the hive consciousness provided the hive master with great convenience in controlling the swarm, but it also had a huge flaw. The survival of the swarm was tied to one person, and the unified will was connected to each individual through the spiritual network. This meant that as long as they encountered a huge and unstoppable spiritual attack, they could cause serious damage to the swarm’s will.
Big Bob was too confident.
It was not that he did not know of this weakness. When he had ventured deep into the royal mausoleum of Biagon and obtained the arcana, the corresponding knowledge and information had already been integrated into his soul. He knew that this world was fragile and ordinary, and everything had just begun. There was no spiritual power that was strong enough to defeat him.
In a sense, he was right.
There was only one reason for his failure.
He did not expect that the Chinese man who had killed his son was actually a transmigrator who had obtained the help of dragons and elves from another world and the inheritance of the Fire Stealer.
In Banjul’s underground abyss, in the vast, empty, and silent dome, some sort of intertwining veins faintly appeared, covered with a looming silver glow.
At the center of the meridian network, a painful roar sounded. Then, the entire underground palace shook. The countless veins that were entangled like vines shook continuously, and the silver light on them flickered.
This was an empty and mysterious domain. It was incomparably quiet and dark. In the shadows was a terrifying unknown. This was where Big Bob lived. He obtained his inheritance here, recovered his youth here, and plotted his evil scheme here until today.
The weak voice and the pain from the heavy injury made him realize that an even greater danger had arrived.
Kant’s endless and terrifying methods terrified him.
The blazing Holy Light, the crisscrossing lightning, the bone-piercing blizzard, and the dragon’s roar that still made him terrified and painful. The majestic and terrifying power continued to tear his spirit apart.
The unknown was the scariest.
He did not know how many tricks Kant had yet to use.
But one thing was certain.
That Chinese man would never let him off.
From the beginning of the matter until now, the other party’s killing intent was as sharp as a sword. It was unstoppable, unchangeable, and uncompromising. No matter who the potential enemy was, even in the face of the opposition and constraints of the whole world, he had accomplished this impossible feat and reversed the terrible situation.
Now, he would find this place very soon.
Big Bob did not doubt his determination at all.
In the dark central core area, a strange soft sound rang out. It was the sound of something being uncovered, accompanied by the splashing sound of mucus. Under the illumination of the silver light, a strong body sat up, and a faint liquid slid down from the energetic and elastic skin.
The sound of something sliding came from the side. Something that looked like a vine twisted over. The tentacle wrapped around the tip opened, revealing a backpack. The person reached out and unzipped the backpack. There were his personal belongings and souvenirs. He took out an old-fashioned phone.
The screen lit up and shone on his face.
If his old friends saw this face, they would definitely scream in fear, because this was Bob Bourgeau, the shadow of Africa in the last century, the legendary king of mercenaries. In his career, he had launched countless coups, and at least four African heads of state had died in his hands.
He was at his peak right now.
His eyes were malicious, his flesh was full, and his strong body contained endless violence and power.
He slowly dialed a number.
There was almost no signal underground, except here. He could block all communication signals in Zhuerban, but of course, he had a way to maintain this. He quickly rang the phone for about half a minute, but he still waited patiently until the phone was connected. A low, dissatisfied, and even resentful voice sounded.
” The second biggest mistake I’ve made in my life was trusting you.”
He could no longer suppress his anger.
The president of the Fifth Republic of France roared through the receiver.
“And the first mistake was to believe you again!”
After the end of the Battle of Comola, the French were defeated. Not only did they not get any benefits, but they also got into trouble. Not to mention the cooperation with the Burgeot family, the inside story of the war, and a series of other things, even the attack of the French foreign legion’s Comola task force on the civilians of Moani was enough to destroy the current cabinet. However, things did not turn for the better at that time.
Kant had already settled everything. As long as he kneeled a little more neatly, licked harder, and bled a little more, the matter would end there. However, the bait that Big Bob had released was too tempting.
The secret of immortality.
Underground Ruins.
Ancient Mystery.
Technology, prestige, and the secret of eternal youth that could drive politicians, rich people, and nobles all over the world crazy were enough to make this French government and the entire country write a unique and intense stroke in the history of human civilization.
The French gambled again.
After all, he had a huge advantage.
All the powerful people in the world would be crazy about the secret of Big Bob’s return to youth. These people would despise life and morality even for money and status, and the opportunity to live forever and enjoy all the enjoyment of others was worth trampling on all conscience, morality, and laws. They would even kill and wage war to get it!
This desire was so strong that it was enough to push the countries at the level of permanent members to implement this will. Even China had to compromise under this power. Would the Chinese government go against the world and even take out nuclear weapons for a mere Kant? Obviously not.
All they needed to do was to make substantial concessions, compromise, and loosen their ties.
The first island chain, the technological barrier, the upstream blockade of the industrial chain, and the war of ideologies were nothing compared to immortality!
The chances of winning were too high. No wonder the French were muddle-headed.
However, the most unlikely thing had happened.
Kant had fought back despite the pressure. Before anyone could react, he had defeated Big Bob’s swarm with an unheard of strength!
At this point, there was no longer any power in the African region that could interfere or stop him.
On the other hand, Fabixi would have to swallow an even more bitter fruit and become the laughing stock of all countries. God knows what those damned British barbarians would say next!
The confused cabinet officials had not even thought of how to ” convey their willingness to reconcile with Kant in a dignified and sincere manner.”
Logically speaking, this was no easier than World War II.
As for Big Bob?
Who cared about him?
” Mr. President, I admit that there was an accident. You’ve witnessed Kant’s power. You shouldn’t blame me for this failure. In fact, don’t you find it strange?”
Big Bob slowly said,” The power of light, the power of lightning, and the power of blizzard. Why is he so powerful? If he was so powerful, why did he have to fight so hard in the previous Battle of Komoira? I can guarantee that this is the power of Tacitus, given to him by the relics in the ruins of Komora…”
The president interrupted him impatiently.
“No one cares where his power comes from. Big Bob, we only look at the facts. The truth is that you lost and he won. Everything from now on has nothing to do with you. You’re finished.”
“You’re finished. Yes, no one cares about your life or death, and no rich and powerful big shot cares about your secret of returning to youth. Because that Chinese man has proved one thing with today’s crazy action-he can fool the whole world, he doesn’t mind making enemies with any military power, and he can kill anyone he wants! No one will dare to accept your gift.”
The president’s voice was filled with killing intent.
He said,” Give up your fantasy. No one will help you, Bob. It’s useless to call anyone. There’s only one thing I can tell you. As a French citizen, you’ve been loyal to Fabixi and received our courtesy and preferential treatment. For your motherland, make some contributions to Fabixi before you die. It’s a pity if the secrets you discovered underground in Zhuerban disappear with your death. Just take it as making up for the mistakes you’ve made. Give them to your country…”
The light from the phone screen shone on Big Bob’s cold smile.
” Mr. President,” he said,” why are you talking to yourself? Why don’t you listen to me first?”
“.. Tell me.”
The former mercenary said slowly,”The purpose of calling you is to ask you to…” Trust me one more time.”
On the other end of the phone, someone took a deep breath.
Then, unimaginably vulgar words spewed out.
The dialect slang of the Somme province, the classic national curse of Fabersi, and the mean, vicious, vulgar, and vulgar vulgarities gushed out endlessly, as if Big Bob’s phone had been connected to a dung pump.
The central thought was,” F * ck your mother, daydreaming, go to hell.”
Mr. President, don’t be so sure.” Big Bob said calmly,” You know, I hid a lot from you previously…I’ll send some images, videos, and text to your private email.”
“Hurry up and finish reading it, then reply to me.”
“I just want to live.”
“Only you guys can’t protect me.”
” So, I’ll have to trouble you to inform the other countries.”
” We don’t have much time left. Kant will be here at any time. While you’re receiving and browsing through the documents, why don’t you send the Knight Astolford frigate, which is cruising in the West African waters, to Banjul Port first?”
” Mr. President, I’ve already sent the deposit for the ticket.”
The signal was cut off. Big Bob, who had been calm all this while, finally couldn’t take it anymore. He spat out the blood that surged up, and his expression became extremely ugly. He rubbed his forehead, revealing a ferocious expression of pain.
The aftermath of that terrifying power was still destroying him.
“Kant…”
“This isn’t over yet,” he hissed through gritted teeth.
Big Bob slowly lay down on his back, allowing the mysterious liquid to drown his body. This wound needed to be treated and repaired immediately, and it would take a little time.
Fortunately, Moani was a few hundred kilometers away from Zhuerban. No matter how fast Kant was, he would still need some time to get there.
There was still time.
At this moment.
Violent tremors came from all directions. The swarm of insects sensed that an unfamiliar energy signal had suddenly appeared somewhere in the east of the underground palace. It was coming toward them at an extremely fast speed!
” Impossible!” Big Bob suddenly sat up from the liquid pool.” This is impossible!”
The sound of the drill hitting the outer wall of the Earth Dome reverberated violently.
Then, there was the sound of thunder and lightning. Violent electric currents were constantly emitted and scattered, destroying the patrolling tunnel worms nearby. Obviously, the enemy was approaching!
Breaking through the outer layer of the underground palace.
Big Bob was first shocked, then panicked, and then calmed down.
Don’t be nervous. The underground palace is made of special materials. It’s an ancient building material that surpasses modern materials science. Its hardness is so strong that it can withstand a strong attack. It can even withstand a burrowing bomb!
Want to drill through it? What a joke!
His eyes flickered as he planned. The swarm of insects outside was his eyes and ears, collecting sounds and transmitting signals. Big Bob listened as he thought.
” Let me try!” Suddenly, he heard a shout from the drill.
In the next moment, Big Bob’s expression changed drastically. He could sense that the sturdy outer wall of the Earth Dome had collapsed and disappeared, as if it had been bitten by something and disappeared from this world forever!
In other words, it had been breached!
An uninvited guest barged into the dark underground palace.
The roar reverberated in the quiet Earth Dome.
“Surprise!”Kant roared,” F * ck! Zefark!”
When he was scouting around Zhuerban, Kant had driven the Horus tunneler to the underground palace. In the end, he was discovered and stopped by Big Bob’s Zerg swarm.
At that time, he lacked a good way to deal with the insect swarm, but now he had nothing to fear!
He had obtained theoretical support and logistical support in the other world. The elven book recorded all kinds of information about the Grywenda swarm. Other than their habits, weaknesses, and methods of defeating them, most of the pages were about how to protect themselves and counterattack under the siege of the swarm!
It was extremely detailed and thoughtful. It did not require any high-end incantation or magic mastery!
He only needed a scroll! A scroll! And scrolls!
‘I’ve already copied my homework!’
Kant used the power of the Fire Stealer to extract the hard outer wall. The space in front of him was suddenly empty. He was floating in the air with a flying spell. Beneath his feet was a bottomless void. Everything before him was pitch black. In the dark world that was endlessly dark and terrifying, the flames of the Phoenix Vision were emitting golden light.
Countless red dots represented the signs of human life. They were arranged in an orderly manner in the distance. This was also the scene he saw that day. In the center of these red dots, there was a strong life signal emitting extremely high energy fluctuations. On the surface and around the red light, there was a silver-gray glimmer that spread like the veins of ancient vines. It was extremely complicated and dense.
Other than that, he couldn’t see anything clearly.
What was this place?
There was almost no light. It was as if a mysterious power had devoured all light.
Then…
It’s decided to be you!
The Divine Sun Ring! Proof of Star Authority! Listen to my command!
Turn on the lights
The holy light flowed, and a strong power of light shone in the sky. The holy light flowed out of the divine ring and flowed around Kant’s body. It glowed brightly. In an instant, the darkness retreated and the darkness vanished. Light shone on everything.
For the first time, sunlight shone in the dark underground palace.
Everything hidden in the shadows was clearly visible.
Kant finally had a clear view of the entire underground space.
His breathing stopped.
Even though he had experienced bloody battles, even though he had witnessed the mysteries, even though he had once spoken to the Spacetime Dragon God, and even though he had walked in the mysterious and unpredictable Mirror World that replicated Earth for nearly two years…
However, he was still shocked by the scene in front of him.
He saw a huge artificial creation, a masterpiece that surpassed all ancient wonders.
This was a…Insect nest.
It was emitting silver and gray light, like a nest made of interwoven vines. However, this was not the instinct of primitive creatures. It must be shining with a terrifying light of wisdom.
Its composition strictly followed the beauty of geometry. The veins were like blood vessels, and strange liquids flowed through them. Huge vines hung down like branches, bearing rich fruits.
The fruit was transparent.
He could see the flesh and core inside.
The flesh of the fruit was like the liquid flowing in the vines.
As for the core…It was a human.
One by one.
Lying inside, their expressions were either frightened or calm. They floated inside, occasionally blowing out a string of bubbles from their nostrils and mouths. Their hair floated in the liquid, and their eyes were tightly closed as they fell into a dream.
There were many fruits and many humans trapped in this cage.
Liquid was exchanging, flowing, and gathering.
The densely packed locusts lay on the nodes of the veins, the surface of the fruit, and even the skin of the veins, completely covering the nest. Their wings were expanding and contracting as if they were breathing, and silver light flashed.
They didn’t eat organic matter, and they couldn’t digest minerals and metals. However, they could devour everything, kidnap mortals, collect food, and even attack a city from hundreds of miles away.
Energy was always preserved. If he did not eat, what method did he rely on to obtain energy and maintain his functions?
The answer was right in front of him.
The people who had been kidnapped were all here.
He was locked in this cage.
The liquid flowed.
The locusts gathered there.
There was no process of absorption. What they absorbed was another form of energy.
This evil lair captured living people to feed the insect group, not with flesh and blood.
They seemed to be using another method to help the Graywind Zerg that had once appeared in the other world and was defeated by the previous generation of Fire Stealers…It provided energy.
“I…” Even the knowledgeable Fire Stealer could not help but sigh when he saw the evil and shocking scene. Kant slowly exhaled.” F * ck…”
This was f * cking…
His gaze followed the fruits and branches to the center where the blood vessels gathered.
Big Bob’s body emerged from the huge pool of liquid. Countless veins and branches drilled into the back of his head, back, and even every part of his arm’s flesh. He hung himself out of the pool, his eyes dark and angry.
“Kang-de-”
[PS 1: 5,000 words…] Ah, I can find an artist to draw these two scenes. Good night.
