Civilization: Beyond Two Worlds Novel - Chapter 592
Chapter 592: 592
Elves Are So Dirty
“Advance! Forward!”
Steel cables shot out from the Afu and nailed onto the beach. The navy soldiers filed out one after another, wrapped their hands in cloth and protective gear, and slid toward the beach.
On the side of the warship close to the sea, waves were surging. Groups of sea monsters surged like a tide. The artillery fire on the starboard side swept across the sea surface wantonly. There was no need to aim at all to kill groups of monsters. They seemed to have received some kind of information or signal and gathered toward the main island without fear of death. Their numbers were increasing.
“Quick, quick, quick!”
The battle at Long Beach had come to an end. The two island defense forces that had gathered there had been completely annihilated. The magic device positions that dared to continue firing at the beach had also been destroyed by Sunlight drones, large-caliber artillery, and even precision-guided missiles. The focus of the battle had shifted.
The captain of the Evergreen Song was loudly commanding his subordinates to speed up the operation. He was appointed as the field commander of this emergency military operation. His name was Quillion.
“Everyone, move faster! Line up 100 meters in front! Halsey! Gather the mages! Set up a temporary base immediately!
Our troops need magic support!”
“Understood!”
The spellcasters of the four warships were temporarily formed into a mixed group of mages. The one in charge was Halsey, the captain of the Ashen Wrath. He was a senior atmospheric mage of the council. He was known as the ” Son of the Typhoon ” because he was good at using the magic warship to summon and guide battle-level wind energy and launch terrifying spells that could not differentiate between friend and foe.
The mages, who had been repaired and had their magic power restored, began to construct elemental models. They also used the magic equipment, small magic devices, and crystals that they had brought from the ship to set up a mobile base.
Quillon held his longbow and his sharp gaze was focused on the beach.
He knew where the biggest threat came from.
Although the Afu’s firepower was strong, it could not weave a net of firepower that covered the entire island. The unknown monsters from the deep sea were increasing, and sooner or later, they would rush to the beach.
“Faster!”he shouted. Tell them to hurry up!”
His Highness Kant’s train of thought was right. They had to occupy a favorable terrain to set up a defensive line. Otherwise, their thousand-plus soldiers would be eaten up by these monsters sooner or later.
We have to do more… Yes, he had to do more.
We can’t just watch from the sidelines with the support of His Highness Kant and Sir Horus. We are the royal navy, the glorious elven soldiers, and the most loyal warriors of the queen. How can we be so useless?
His Highness Kant will need us!
After all, no matter how powerful alchemical weapons are, they can’t completely replace soldiers. Our flexible tactics, powerful mobility, and battle-hardened martial arts can also play a role, not to mention…
“Captain!”
Before he could finish his thoughts, a few forest rangers shouted a warning.
” Halsey!” Quillion looked over and saw a large number of monsters flooding in from both sides of Long Beach. They braved the incoming artillery fire and roared as they advanced. Fire Wall!”
After reminding him, he shouted,”Prepare the arrow regiment! Scattered arrows! Bombardment tactic!”
But the next moment, a heavy thud came from behind.
They looked back in surprise and saw several huge red vehicles crashing to the ground. The jet on the roof was aimed at the sky, and the powerful jet roared out and splashed on the long beach. The air was soon filled with a pungent smell. The smell of aromatic compounds entered the elves ‘noses and intoxicated their sensitive sense of smell. It was quite nice, he thought.
Then, he saw a raging flame rising from afar.
The monsters ‘roars of desire for flesh and blood turned into intense screams.
These monsters, which obviously came from the deep sea, were ferocious, bloodthirsty, and violent. They were even immune to electric currents, but their flesh and blood bodies were bound to be afraid of fire, especially sea creatures!
The few large fire trucks splashed gasoline on the beach intermittently. The flames were raging, and the flesh was charred black. Such a formation was much fiercer than the mages ‘cone-shaped flames and fire wall spells.
This dreamy scene fulfilled Kant’s childhood dream.
Ever since he got the second water gun in his life, he had developed a great interest in the behavior of the piston-like movement.
It was said that war was the best opportunity to advance the development of science and technology. Kant agreed with this point very much. In the water gun battle with his friends in the same neighborhood, his technological tree had risen rapidly.
Very soon, ordinary ammunition could no longer satisfy him. Kang De learned the concept of special ammunition without any teacher. Adding a little bit of material to the water or directly using other liquids would increase the lethality and deterrence. For example, ink, this, and that.
Then, he understood the concept of caliber is justice, big is good, and used heavy weapons in the water gun duel of his friends. He used his lucky money to buy a pesticide dispenser, carrying half a box of water, wearing a child’s helmet, and carrying a modified gun barrel back to the battlefield.
By the way, that time, he had trapped Little Man in a corner and shot her to tears five times.
His friends, who had been shot to the point of pissing their pants, also began to buy heavy equipment. This made little Kant understand the concept of an arms race. Since everyone had easily gotten their hands on pesticide sprayers, it made him understand the importance of technological barriers. What was even more terrifying was that Little Man had used a huge amount of money to buy equipment and began his path of revenge, while Kant’s pocket money was almost empty. He thought to himself, I see. No wonder the Soviet Union died.
Kant used history as a reference and roped in his fellow students who were also short of money. He created public opinion and incited opposition. In the end, he forced everyone to accept the ” Heavy Equipment Restriction Convention “, which prohibited the use of weapons of mass destruction such as pesticide sprayers. This allowed water gun fights to return to normal.
Kant began to come up with new ideas based on what the Americans did in the book. He realized that there was a limit to individual combat, so he decided to take a different approach. He decided to use the watering device on the lawn of the residential area for free. With the addition of a water pipe, it would be a cannon position, but the range was a problem.
So he began to think about how to use a tricycle, a bucket, and a simple water pump to rope in two or three friends to form an alliance and create an APCs…
The game that had gone too far finally suffered a blow from a reduction in dimensions. It was stopped by his parents ‘forceful intervention. This made Kant understand the cruelty and treachery of the international community. Under the pressure of a large country, a small country had no dignity to speak of. His Manhattan Project was destined to remain on paper.
Yes, he wanted a fire truck.
And now, his childhood dream had finally come true. Not only did he have many fire engines, but he also f * cking sprayed gasoline. This kind of behavior was not only in his childhood, but even now, if he dared to do this, he would definitely have the armed police force mobilized to serve him.
“Burn! Burn his mother!”
Fire dragons danced in the air, and flames spread across Long Beach.
Fire was the symbol of the origin of civilization. It was the beginning of humans ‘strategic deterrence against other animals. It could be said that every human’s DNA was engraved with the instinct of an arsonist.
Massive amounts of gasoline were sprayed back and forth, seeping into the beach and floating on the surface of the sea. The raging flames caused great damage to the sea monsters and also hindered their advancement. Under the protection of the wall of fire and the artillery fire of the Afu, more than a thousand sailors finally landed.
Kant came before the officers.
“You’ve seen the map! We need to set up a temporary camp on the observation platform five kilometers ahead! It’s easy to set up defenses there!”
Kant drew a simple map on the beach.” Our enemies aren’t just the garrison on the island who we don’t know if they’ve all died. We also have the monsters in the sea!” When we arrive at the temporary camp, I will immediately build fortifications and arm you. Then, I need you to carry out some tasks!”
“You can trust us, Your Highness!” the officers shouted.
Kant nodded and said,” It’s like this. In the previous battle, the heavy magic devices on the island left a deep impression on me. Flame Child Light Spears, catapults, and Raging Tide. These powerful war weapons should be used to clean up the enemies in the sea. The scumbags on the Broken Islands are simply stupid.”
” So, I would like to ask, if you occupy these fortresses, do you have any way to activate those heavy magic devices to assist in the upcoming war?”
Hearing this, the officers ‘expressions became strange.
Especially the mages, their expressions were a little subtle.
The chief mage of the Evergreen Song reacted the fastest. He quickly said,” Your Highness, it’s like this. The few heavy magic devices on the island, such as the Flame Son Light Spear and the Catapults, are all from the Arcane Magic Council’s military arms company and research and development organization. According to rumors, the magic devices that the council sells are all tampered with and left a backdoor…”
“Bullshit!”
Halsey, the Son of Typhoon, was a Mage of the Council. He had to stand up for the organization.” It was an elf who did this!” he said angrily. The Raging Tide is such a powerful magic device. You must have a way to control it!”
The humans and elves glared at each other, their swords drawn, and they did not give in.
Kant said expressionlessly,” Well, this is an emergency. I don’t care if there’s a back door or not. I’m just asking, do you have any way to crack these heavy magic devices and bypass the spiritual imprint?”
A hint of embarrassment flashed across the faces of the two spellcasters. However, they were indeed spellcasters. They were good at controlling their expressions. Halsey said seriously,” Your Highness, if we’re talking about brute force, of course there’s a way. After all, no matter what kind of magic device it is, it uses the most basic laws of magic, so…”
“Then it’s settled.”
Kant did not care about that. He waved his hand and said,” Then, you guys pick the Spell Casters. After we set up defenses in the target camp, we’ll immediately execute the plan to attack the target fortress. We’ll occupy the three fortress Magic Devices on the island and prepare to move now. There are too many people. We can’t even transport them by car. Everyone, run over!”
As soon as he finished speaking, Horus ‘voice came from the walkie-talkie in front of his chest.” Father, the Dragon Scout reported that the sea monsters have landed from another area and are surrounding Long Beach. We have to move faster.”
“You all heard it!”
Kant clapped his hands. Just run and defend yourself! We’ll cover you!”
“Your Highness, the Royal Navy will listen to your orders. I will lead the elite troops to fight with Your Highness and protect our comrades.”
His words were sincere and fast.” We have the best archers. They are all equipped with enchanted arrows and donned in woven wood armor. They will fight for you with storm-like shooting speed and rock-like defense lines. The more difficult the moment is, the more the elven soldiers are eager to show you our value. We are the most loyal warriors of the queen, not the humiliated ones who are protected…”
Before he could finish speaking, a series of roars sounded from afar.
Kant raised his hand and snapped his fingers.
A black Realm Gate opened in midair. With a whistling sound, metal lumps fell from the sky, making loud booms. Before Quillion could finish speaking, he turned around and saw an iron wall.
The cold, heavy, and rough armor was full of majesty. Two red lights shot out from the eyes of the face plate. The inscriptions of Aurora were engraved on the chest plate. The armor that suffused elemental brilliance contained the smell of smoke and death. They were like the guards of the holy land in myths and legends. They walked with firm steps and their bodies were like mountains. The heavy guns they held were shining with the heavy light of heavy metal. They were ready to go to dangerous places at any time and were ready to fight.
I… F * ck!
Quillon’s pupils constricted.
His heart felt as if it had been hit by a sledgehammer. He opened his mouth slightly, unable to say a word. This arrogant pointy-eared man could swear that he had never been so obsessed with something in his life. When he saw this armor, his heart and eyes were filled with two words!
Yes! Yes!
What was this! What the f * ck was this? What the f * ck was this?
Was it a puppet made by Prince Kant? Just like those golems of the Arcane Magic Council? Why did such a beautiful armor have to be made into a golem? This was much better than the shiny silver girly things worn by the Silver Moon Holy Guards! Moon God above!
What kind of awesome armor was this!
This was what elves should wear!
Those so-called designers, craftsmen, and artists should all eat sh * t!
So why did he create a golem? It shouldn’t be controlled by boring magical cores and complicated mechanical devices! It was worthy of the bravest warrior! Yes, it was! Only a brave and invincible elf like me can wear it to battle!
I want it, I want it, I want it! I really want it!
So here comes the question. What do I need to do to get His Highness Kant to forge such armor for me? Should I sign a 50-year short-term employment contract with His Highness?
His mind was filled with such chaotic thoughts. Then, he heard Kant’s voice.
“Alright, boys, set up a mobile defense line!”
Kant clapped his hands.” Listen to my orders. Horus will be your battlefield AI. As a Warrior of Destruction, your enemies will never be limited to humans. This strange thing is just an appetizer. You must get used to all kinds of battlefields, get used to fighting bravely, get used to fighting bravely with all kinds of support, and get used to fighting alone without support!”
“Then! Let’s begin!”
Therefore, Quillion looked around, and the dozens of iron lumps in front of him responded loudly.
“I will fight for you, Your Highness!”
“..”
“..”
The golem was speaking.
Golem…
No!
No!
No! Yes! Demon! Yes!
And it was a f * cking human! It was the common human language! It was still a Goethe accent!
It was Goethe!
They were weak Goethe people!
It’s the Goethe people who were beaten by us until they couldn’t raise their heads and almost destroyed their country!
Why, why, why!
Kant was just about to release the Graywind swarm when he felt a strong will staring at him.
He turned his head and saw that Quillon was staring straight at him.
That gaze…It seemed familiar.
It seemed like Gorilla, Xiaoman, and even Tina…
Fuck.
“What’s wrong?” he asked, shivering and looking a little unfriendly.
“N-Nothing…” Quillion came back to his senses.
Hiss.
Kant sucked in a breath of cold air. It did not seem to be an illusion. He saw something from the corner of the elf’s eyes.
Tears?
Before he could react, the elf turned around and shouted,” You rotten goods! Hurry up and run! He started running! Throwing something at an elf!
Idiots who grew up in a manure pit! Even the sea maggots didn’t care about the rotten dregs, leaving them in the world would only make bread expensive! For the sake of the Empress, run, run, run!”
For some reason, the elven captain was enraged, and the navy soldiers hurriedly obeyed orders. The team of more than a thousand people began to run at the fastest speed, while the warriors of destruction raised their weapons and began to defend the front line.
But… What’s wrong?
Kant looked puzzled. He suddenly stared at me without saying anything. He looked like he had been wronged. Then, he threw a tantrum at the others. It was so, so tsundere…
Could, could it be…
He revealed a terrified expression.
.. It seemed that he had to stay away from this elf in the future.
F * ck, living for a long time is dirty.
Thinking about these crooked things all day long…
” When are we retreating?” Kant asked Horus, suppressing his subtle thoughts.
” In about ten minutes,” Horus replied,” Father will pour oil into this sea area. The Afu’s hull is being gnawed and attacked by the monsters. It’s reaching its limit…”
“Alright.”
The Afu was going to retreat.
First of all, even with the support of the Paragon Element, there was still a limit to the strength of the material.
Secondly, even though Horus was a powerful artificial intelligence, his computing power was limited. Next, he had to build a temporary camp halfway up the mountain and set up a cannon position. Horus had to be in charge of the warriors of destruction’s combat support, control the drones in the sky to patrol around, and then be responsible for the fire control of the new camp. He no longer had the spare energy to take care of the Afu.
“Then…Just hold on for another ten minutes!”
The monsters roared as they gathered on the beach. The Warriors of Destruction opened fire one after another. Metal Storm sprayed, rockets and grenades flew everywhere. In the sky, the Razor Squadron formed by Sunlight drones fell and bombarded Long Beach. Long Beach became a terrifying meat grinder. Every moment, a shocking number of monsters died, but more and more deep-sea monsters gathered on the island.
In the depths of the Sea-suppressing Castle, a strange laughter sounded.
“Looks like he is the Fire Stealer.”
