Chapter 486: 486
Scared Back
Seal the cave, leave the scorched earth, and meet up with Stella.
He explained the general situation to her and suggested a solution.
“I took a video.”
In the intelligence room of the logistics department, the high-ranking officers and spellcasters of the investigation team sat on simple chairs in a row. The tent door was closed, and the room was dark. Only the mysterious alchemy equipment that His Highness Kant took out shone on the white curtain.
There was originally no need to turn off the lights, but Kant still instructed them to do so.
—Because this is the only way to feel it!
The military officers and mages sat there like primary school students, looking at His Highness Kant with respect and awe as he casually fiddled with the glowing alchemy equipment in front of him. His Highness had just demonstrated a spatial technique that was enough to shock the Arcane Magic Council, transporting a huge amount of seawater from dozens of kilometers away. The purest way of attack would arouse people’s reverie and awe.
For example, they could not help but wonder where Kant’s limit was. He could send seawater to seal a monster cave. Of course, he could also attract a flood to attack a city. He could even turn a large-scale agricultural area into a saline-alkalized land, permanently changing the soil structure, or…
Since it could send seawater, it should be able to send lava as well.
Their imaginations ran wild, and then they were both gratified and worried. They were gratified that such a powerful figure had finally fallen under Princess Tina’s skirt. They were worried that the Phoenix King’s skirt seemed to be attractive to this Forbidden Mage. Goethe had finally welcomed a guardian god in the world, so he must not be kidnapped by the elves.
He hoped that Princess Tina would be able to maintain His Highness Kant’s loyalty to love.
However, Princess Tina was not here, and the Goethe people’s ardent expectations could not be fulfilled. Therefore, according to the customary inheritance law of the continent, it was postponed to another member of the Tedarell present.
[Your Highness, do your best!]
Stella, who was standing on the side, twisted her body and felt that everyone was looking at her awkwardly.
Kant pressed the play button.
People saw a bright and clear image on the white curtain.
In the bottomless, dark cave that was suffused with a strange purple glow, the nameless exotic beast, which was clawing at the steep stone walls and jumping rapidly with its sharp claws and hideous teeth, let out a sharp roar and pounced toward the screen.
Almost everyone’s body subconsciously leaned back.
There were even flashes of battle aura and magic.
” Don’t be nervous,” Kant said calmly.” It’s just an image.”
Miraculously, everyone calmed down.
They looked at the image and saw a pair of exquisite, dreamy, silver glistening armors holding a long, cold, and fierce killing weapon with six tubes. It aimed at the exotic beasts that were charging at them. The long tubes of the weapon began to buzz and spin, then spat out dazzling flames. Wherever they went, the exotic beasts were shattered and exploded.
The Goethe realized what had just happened.
It was recorded from the perspective of His Highness Kant, the mark of time and space.
Accurately extracting memories, creating frozen images of time and recreating them? It seemed like His Highness Kant was also a master in the study of souls. It was truly awe-inspiring and admirable.
They looked at the lifelike, time-frozen image with rapt attention.
The corner of the Earthling’s mouth curled up slightly.
This was probably the first time humans in the other world were watching a proper movie on a large scale.
The first movie on Earth was called ” The Train Arrives “. It recorded the scene of a train entering Paris ‘Chaudat station. The movie was slowed down to make up for a minute of play time, but the effect was excellent. The gentlemen and ladies watching the movie saw a Thomas train crash head-on. It was said that they were so scared that they scattered and even fainted.
The first video that the otherworldlings saw was not the black-and-white, crude silent film,” The Train Arrives,” but the high-definition, first-person perspective,” Heart of the Swarm.” Of course, the effect and shock were far greater than the former. Perhaps this was the progress of civilization. Kant revealed a gratified expression.
It was obvious that Kant had selectively forgotten about the educational Japanese action movies that were shown to the crew of the Penguin on the Saint Seal Islands.
Indeed.
How could that thing be recorded in the history textbooks?
The first movie in the other world was actually an indescribable thing with a mysterious number. How could the primary school students of the future generation endure this!
Just as he was thinking, the three to four minutes of the movie ended. He only cut this short part because the rest of the movie was the same. It was just a muscular man in heavy armor holding a terrifying heavy weapon and cutting up a ferocious, terrifying, and hideous monster.
After the movie finished playing, the lights in the tent lit up. The officers and spellcasters smacked their lips and looked around blankly, revealing an expression of wanting more.
He was like a primary school student who had watched a movie organized by the school and looked at the lights in the theater with a regretful expression that said,”Why did it end so quickly?”
” I hope my weapon won’t give you the illusion that this thing is easy to deal with,” Kant said.
“Everyone saw it.” Stella continued,” The body has obviously mutated. The corrosive energy is visible to the naked eye. The person has lost his mind and fear. This is the standard sign of being infected by negative energy. Therefore, he has shown a strong aggressiveness and aggressiveness. He will kill regardless of the consequences and avoid danger.”
Everyone nodded.
They were extremely aggressive and aggressive towards humans. They were not afraid of the death of their companions. They did not run away even when they were bleeding or in pain. This was the most typical characteristic of mutated creatures.
Normal creatures basically didn’t do this.
There was a classic misconception. It was the same in the other world, and it was the same on Earth. People who lived in cities and modern civilizations often had the misconception that they would associate words such as bravery and bravery with predators such as lions, tigers, leopards, and wolves, as if they were fearless and proud.
Actually, that was not right.
They were ferocious, not brave, and fierceness often bullied the weak and feared the strong. Animals rarely had the trait of being brave. If there was a commonality between animals living in nature, it was cowardice.
There was also bullying the weak and fearing the strong.
Unless they were starving, they would not hunt for anything outside of their daily diet. They would be cautious and escape at any time when they had never seen a creature before. They would only feast on it after confirming that it was a weak chicken. When the target showed a certain degree of deterrence and incomprehensible difficulty, giving up was also a common occurrence. If they encountered pain and bleeding, running away was also the most likely option.
This was because animals were basically cowards. Cowardice was not a derogatory term, because cowardice was the only way to survive.
This was because the Predators were all Soul System players. They could only pursue killing without any injuries. Any minor injury would often lead to the worst outcome…He could eat next time, but he only had one life.
Basically, especially on Earth, unless it was an animal that was spoiled by the local government and humans, the first reaction of animals in other regions was to turn around and run when they saw humans.
The animals in Australia were simply getting beaten up less.
After all, there might be ferocious predators that listed humans as their food, but in the long history, they had all been artificially selected.
As for animals that ran away when they saw humans, it might be an instinct that was engraved in their genes. As for animals that did not have that kind of thing engraved in their DNA…
Then he didn’t know where it was.
It was the same in the other world. The establishment of a civilization was often accompanied by iron-blooded protection of the people. Any enemy that threatened the race and settlement would be systematically killed, expelled, or even exterminated. This bloody and cruel battle would continue until an agreement was reached, or until one side was completely wiped out.
This was the process of human reproduction.
The reason why intelligent creatures were intelligent creatures was that they would carry out preventive revenge massacres.
When a young child of a village was taken away by a wolf, the able-bodied men of a certain area of the village would gather and search for the wolf’s den, burn the nest, kill the young children, and chase the wolf pack. Only when the entire wolf clan completely disappeared from the land would this work stop.
To any animal, this was an unimaginable atrocity.
In the otherworld with supernatural powers, the animals here were more ferocious and stronger than those on Earth due to the abundance of elemental energy. In contrast, humans ‘wars and methods were more bloody and decisive.
” We’ve already witnessed and encountered this infected mutated creature, and we’ve engaged in a battle. The signs of corrosion have been confirmed. I suggest that we immediately create a file, record it, and prepare to report it to the Arcane Magic Council’s life department…Everyone, we should be extremely vigilant.”
” You’ve all seen it,” Stella said.” Even if we ignore the mysterious erosive power, just a large number of these creatures rushing to the surface will cause great casualties and losses.”
The Goethe people stood up and agreed in unison.
” Then, the next task is to build an underground observation facility, pay attention to the underground movements, and build a defensive position along this devouring cave to prevent the seal from being broken again. Please send reinforcements again. We need more archers and warlocks. Everyone, we have a tough battle to fight.”
“Your Highness, should we go deep into the cave to clean up the exotic beasts and eliminate the source?” An officer stood up and asked.
” That’s possible,” Stella nodded after a moment of silence.
Kant wanted to say something, but the Second Princess shot him a glance and stopped him.
When the meeting ended, every officer and mage left the tent to carry out experiments on the samples, write reports, command the construction of magic platforms, or lead the army to advance the defense. Kant, Stella, Ah Xing, and Lily were the only ones left in the tent. Kant told them about his plan.
“No!” Stella refused flatly.” I don’t agree!”
Kant frowned and said,” You saw it yourself. It’s very dangerous down there. According to the clues we found, the people sent by the dragons to settle scores with me flew over here after entering the country. They found some kind of sign and were lured by the things inside. They thought of taking it all for themselves and went deep into the country. That’s why they caused trouble. Logically speaking, this kind of thing should be handled by the dragons. Why not?”
If he didn’t let the dragon step on the thunder, did he want Goethe to pile up human lives?
Lily also said,” I have no objections. Those dragons are conservative. They are against the Dragon Emperor and us reformists. I’m happy that they are trapped in it. I’m even happier that the conservative stupid dragons are trapped in it to save them. Don’t think about my thoughts, and don’t be surprised.”
” You humans are all killing each other,” she said indifferently.” You have your own thoughts and are fighting each other. What about us noble dragons?”
“This matter doesn’t count like this.” Stella glanced at Kant and Lily and sighed.” Sometimes, I really envy you guys. If you’re strong enough, you can do whatever you want. You don’t have to think about the consequences or think too much. But the problem now is that you have to think too much.”
Kant and Lily looked at each other. They were both at a loss.
As for Ah Xing, there was no need to even look at him.
Stella shook her head.” Let me put it simply. The discovery is that there is a terrible corrosion phenomenon here. Creatures are extinct, beasts are corroded, and a large number of terrible monsters have emerged from the caves. This is the disaster that happened in Goethe. It is a threat to our land, our country, and our citizens. It is something that we must solve and the most important problem we attach importance to…”
Kant nodded.
” However, for the dragons, they only care about one thing, and that is to confirm the whereabouts of their people and rescue them. Why would they care about the disaster that happened in Goethe?”
“Even if you forced them to do this, they would only be able to save their people. As for solving this disaster for mankind and eliminating the corruption? They didn’t care at all. In order to save their people, they didn’t mind doing some destructive things, such as blowing up a big hole in the ground or completely opening up the land. As for the monsters inside running to the surface to kill after saving their people, what did it have to do with them? They can fly away with a flap of their wings.”
.. So that was the case.
“Also, if you reach an agreement with them and let them come in to settle this matter, who will command them? Do you want to cooperate? If they point fingers at us and shout orders, how can we negotiate with them? Do I have to let you fight with them with a forbidden spell? Political and international cooperation is such a troublesome thing. As far as I know, no cooperation at the national level has ever succeeded.”
Kant, who had no political awareness, looked left and right.
“So…” The Second Princess sighed and said,” Although your proposal is very tempting, letting the dragons act as the vanguard can indeed protect the lives of our soldiers…But things are not that simple.”
Kant was silent for a while. We’ll settle it ourselves?”
This might mean a greater risk…And sacrifice.
” What else?” Stella’s eyes reddened. She turned her head away and whispered.
The elves were enemies, not friends. The empire was watching from the sidelines, and the Aurora Empire had long lost contact with them. The other countries and races on the continent were either servants of the elves or were afraid of the elves and the empire’s might. Why would they help?
From the beginning of the war until now, Goethe could only rely on himself.
However, trials and difficulties continued to befall this suffering land.
“Is that so…” Kant was silent for a moment before he said slowly,” Let’s settle this.”
Stella looked up in surprise.
“Your father taught me to say that,”Kant replied with a smile.
This was the lesson the Grand Duke had taught him in Lucerne.
“It feels pretty good,” he shrugged.
Stella burst out laughing and covered her mouth, her eyes turning red.
She couldn’t tell how she felt.
“That…” In this subtle atmosphere, Lily, who was standing at the side, hesitated for a while before saying painfully,” Although I don’t have the heart to interrupt you…”
.. Can’t bear to?
What did he mean?
Kant’s expression changed drastically when he saw her regretful expression.
Bastard, what material were you taking just now?
“What’s wrong?” he asked, glaring.
“What I want to say is…” Long Niang said slowly,” Your Highness, what you said makes sense. With Goethe’s current situation, it seems that it’s really inappropriate to let the dragon get involved in this matter, but…”
She shook her head and said,”A dragon is not someone you can call to work just because you want to, or send away just because you don’t want to.” The seal has just been removed and then re-sealed. It’s enough for the Dragonfire Soul Lamp to sense it.”
Kant and Stella’s expressions changed.
“In other words…” Long Niang shrugged.” They definitely know and might even take action.”
Stella immediately picked up the walkie-talkie and ordered the monitors on the Eye of Lucius to pay attention to the surrounding situation. She also ordered the messenger hawks to send elemental signals to the capital of Blue Wave Province.
A moment later, the report arrived before the reply.
The Second Princess deciphered the elemental code and looked at the urgent message. Her expression changed slightly.” At about 4:12 p. m., the dragons that were on standby outside Goethe’s territorial waters entered the territory. The West Coast Fleet failed to intercept them, but there was no conflict between the two sides. The dragons did not show any hostility when they were intercepted.”
Lily looked at the time. It was already 5:24.” Eh? You should have been here a long time ago.”
Stella looked down and was surprised.” At 4:37 pm, the West Coast Fleet’s naval air mages suddenly discovered that the dragon that entered the territory without permission immediately changed direction and flew out of Goethe’s territorial waters. It was faster than when it entered the territory, and there was no conflict.”
Kant and Lily looked at each other in confusion.
Why did he come and run?
What was going on?
Stella thought for a moment. As expected of the new generation leader of Goethe Law. She looked strange and said,” I think I know the reason…”
She looked at the time and revealed a look of confirmation.” 4:12 am. Coincidentally, the seal was broken and the mutation happened not long ago. The dragon entered the country because it received an urgent order to investigate the whereabouts of its clansmen…”
” Why did he run back?” Kant asked.
” Because around 4:37,” Stella said in a subtle tone,” it’s the time when you use space magic to draw seawater into the cave…”
Kant and Lily looked at each other again. A few seconds later, they came to their senses.
“F * ck.”
Lily said.
He threw a few dragons.
He was actually scared away by the palm technique that fell from the sky.
“That should be the only explanation.”
Princess Goethe had received professional training since she was young and had mastered every skill and etiquette in social situations. She would never smile when she should not, and she could still hold it in now.
” Because not long after they flew back, a giant dragon took human form and boarded a warship of the West Coast Fleet,” she said calmly.” Through the captain, he sent a message to Green Ripple Province, asking the governor to pass it on to us. He said that the dragons have discovered the scent of their missing clansmen. He asked His Highness Kant to explain the situation.”
