Civilization: Beyond Two Worlds

360 I Caught You

A shadow enveloped him.

Kang De looked at the outline of the western airport of Comoros from the peak of the mountain.

The information showed that Little Bob had called the king here.

He was hiding here.

Clearly, in a day, his and even the Burroughs family’s actions and schemes in Comoros had all been declared bankrupt. He was even already under the threat of a superhuman like Kang De. If word spread that what had happened in Comoros, the French government would definitely push him and his son out to be abandoned. The situation had already become unprecedentedly bad. Logically speaking, escaping was the best choice.

However, Little Bob did not.

He actually still stayed here.

This was very, very, very strange.

“If I were him, I wouldn’t expose the power of that treasure that can control people’s hearts at all. Instead, I’ll think of all ways to escape Comoros. It doesn’t matter if I hide my identity or destroy my foundation. With that treasure, I’ll have a chance to turn the tables and even obtain more…”

Although that divine artifact was not omnipotent, the eyes of the humans controlled by it were dull and even flashed with golden light, and their mobility and skill experience were greatly reduced, the abacus controlling the politicians and nobles of the world to rule the world through this thing would definitely not work—but they could still do many things.

Or rather, there were too many.

Even an upright, pure, and proud man like Kang De could instantly think of a hundred uses for that thing. Every one of them could be expanded into a huge work of at least 500,000 words in the First Clubhouse.

This French guy chose to stay in Comoros and fight to the death.

This carried deep meaning.

“Is this a trap, a trap, or a trap?”

His gaze was calm as his figure flashed. The Invisibility Cloak fluttered, and his figure fused into the night as he approached the extremely cold and silent Western Airport.

Before the war, the Burroughs family had partnered with the French government and made some advance arrangements. For example, they had hoarded resources here in advance. Relying on Big Bob and the French government’s deep-rooted influence on Comoros, King Chakat actually knew nothing.

At the beginning of the war, this airport had immediately “fallen”. A large number of military resources had immediately been used or were about to be used. At this moment, the king realized that it was too late. The western airport had stopped operations. In fact, it had already been completely grasped by Little Bob’s people and become the backup base for all military operations. The armed helicopters set off from here to support the various battlefields. The motorcycle troops also set off from here to quickly attack the resistance. Through here, they could control all the battle situations in Comoros.

However, immediately after, Kang De killed his way into Comoros and defeated the joint army of Gambia and the French mercenaries along the way. The helicopters crashed one after another, the armored vehicles exploded one after another, and the armed convoy was destroyed. The two sub-bases and the armed forces guarding Moroni had already been destroyed. They had suffered heavy losses in two days. It could be said that the defeat was set and there were heavy casualties. This place immediately became cold.

However, he did not expect that Little Bob, who had suffered a defeat, actually dared to hide here and not immediately escape to Gambia and think of a way to leave Africa.

Kang De maintained his invisibility and stepped into the cold and silent airport area. On the surface, this place had already been abandoned. There were no guards, patrols, sentries, or anything. However, the glasses engraved with the life detection array revealed that there were two and three red dots hidden in the terminal, hiding in the dark and not moving.

The signal showed that there were indeed a few red spots flickering in the airport building where Little Bob was hiding.

“I’ve found you.”

Kang De touched his chin and pondered for a moment.

There were now two sets of action plans.

Plan A was to sneak in secretly.

He dodged the camera, avoided the surveillance defense, and quietly entered Little Bob’s room. He appeared in front of him, snatched the treasure that could control people’s hearts, and shattered this fellow’s reliance and arrogance. Then, he looked straight into his eyes and told him as the son of a father who had been kidnapped and threatened why he had died. Then, he took revenge on this b*stard and listened to his screams. Such revenge was more ritualistic.

Plan B was to take out a howitzer from the white fog world.

‘You’re here? I just can’t afford to play.’

These two plans each had their own pleasures, causing Kang De to be in a difficult position. However, in terms of controlling accidents and method efficiency, the second plan was better.

However, killing Little Bob like this was too easy on this b*stard. Moreover, he was not sure if Little Bob was in that room. If he could not die from the explosion for a moment or hide elsewhere, if he knew that he was being attacked, he would fly into a rage out of humiliation and kill the hostage. What could he do?

Moreover, that ruin treasure was also inside. If it was broken or shattered by a shot, how could he explain it to the five permanent members? How could he explain where the howitzer came from? Even if he could explain it, if he said that it shattered, so be it? Did he hide it? Did he secretly give it to China?

D*mn, it was very troublesome just thinking about it, let alone the despicable and shameless foreigners. It was also very troublesome to judge others by themselves and feel that he had secretly hidden the treasure and handed it to the country.

Forget it, he should pursue a sense of ritual.

Kang De convinced himself and decided to take the first path.

Then it was happily decided. He would appear in front of him and snatch his treasure. He would slap his face, listen to his howls, pretend to be cool, take revenge, and show his methods.

As for the train of thought for Plan B, he could not waste it.

In the end, he would tie him to the muzzle of the howitzer and shoot.

Moreover, if he wanted to tie it vertically, he had to spread his legs. The beep in the middle was pressed against the muzzle, allowing his little beep to be stuffed into it. It was more creative to tie it like this.

Kang De nodded repeatedly, then took out a mechanical beetle from his pocket and threw it to the ground.

Through mental connection, this small alchemical creation spun on the spot a few times.

The doors and windows of the terminal were tight and there were people guarding everywhere. It could be said to be airtight. There were many ways to force his way in, but it was very easy to alert the enemy.

Not only could he not be discovered, but he could not kill anyone.

After all, Little Bob most likely relied on mental control to control his subordinates. If he killed someone, he might be able to sense it immediately. He could not take this risk.

Therefore, he had to rely on a small method.

Kang De squatted down and pressed down on the ground beside the beetle. He extracted and activated it. A small passageway went deep into the ground and opened a small hole in the room. The beetle crawled in.

It began to crawl inside.

Kang De controlled it with his mental connection.

As expected of a product of an elf alchemist. This thing changed the color of its shell in the dark environment and turned black to fuse into the night. It crawled silently on the cold ground and was almost inconspicuous. No one would notice a worm. It climbed along the wall to the second floor and moved silently on the ceiling.

It went very smoothly.

Kang De, who controlled it through mental connection, was simply like playing a VR game.

As he used the life detection spell to determine the location of the enemy and ordered the mechanical beetle to avoid the gazes of these people to avoid unnecessary trouble, he checked the structural map of the terminal sent by the king’s team and combined it with the physical life detection location to determine the room where Little Bob might be.

Then, he searched for them one by one.

“That’s not right…”

...

He did not find it.

Or rather, the people at the location of the light spots displayed by the life detection spell were not on the phone.

However, the location was indeed here…

Kang De frowned and controlled the mechanical beetle to enter the darkness. Then, it entered the white fog world and crossed space to appear in a shadow.

He had already changed into his shadow solo outfit and maintained his invisibility. His advance was silent. The location given by Moroni was very clear. It was in this area. How could Little Bob not be there?

Unless…

He focused on searching those areas. In the end, he stopped at the door of a room.

There was no one inside.

However…

He could hear soft voices.

A fragment floated in through the crack in the door. Kang De immediately flashed into the room and looked at the table. On the table, the two satellite phones were tied together. The microphone and receiver were placed together.

...

The king and Little Bob’s argument and commotion flowed out.

“D*mn.”

Kang De’s expression changed.

If he had chosen to blast in earlier, things would probably have become very troublesome.

He immediately took a photo and sent it to Kirov.

In the police station, when the Russian saw this, his expression changed. He immediately wrote a note and handed it to the king, who was running in circles with Little Bob. When he saw this, his expression froze slightly, but his tone did not fluctuate.

“Dream on, dream on. You d*mned white skin, you f*cking Gallic rooster. May the world curse you and the people spit on you. We’ll never forgive you…”

“—Shut up and don’t sing d*mned rap, you vulgar fellows!”

The two of them were bargaining about the details of how Little Bob could get out of Comoros. Chakat II continued to insist on keeping the treasure. As he cursed, he took the pen. He still held the microphone with his right hand and wrote a string of cursive words with his left—could Kang De take that phone back? We had to locate it again.

Kirov took a few steps back and quickly typed, then nodded at the king.

“Can the sound problem be solved?”

The king wrote another line.

Because the voices outside were too noisy, the violent wind would immediately remind Little Bob that his phone had already been moved. This was a very fatal problem.

Kirov asked again, then nodded at Chakat II.

Therefore, the country chose to believe it.

Sound Absorption Scroll.

After all, in a magic world, the need to counter eavesdropping was sometimes even stronger than on Earth. If there was demand, there would be a market and a direction of research and development.

A special isolation force field blocked all sounds inside and out.

The outside could not leave, and the inside could not enter.

Kang De quietly left the terminal and quickly retreated through the Hima Eagle.

With these two satellite phones, it was impossible to directly teleport back. Even if the signal was cut off for an instant, Little Bob would be suspicious.

Kang De faced the late-night wind with a serious expression.

From the looks of it, the airport was probably a trap. Little Bob had definitely buried some vicious mechanism or explosive device inside. As long as Kang De stepped in, he would immediately activate it. However, his information was still insufficient and he did not expect Kang De’s methods or that he could quietly sneak in.

The problem now was.

Where was Little Bob hiding?

What other plans did he have?

The giant eagle accelerated its flight. Kang De glanced at the time. Time was continuously flowing. The gorilla and Sword Saint Snowfall were getting closer and closer to Red Maple City. Things on Little Bob’s side were still not over. If he did not kill him, he could not focus all his energy on the other world, especially now that he had grasped the ability to control his mind. If he left it alone, who knew what trouble he could cause?

Moreover, the problem of weapons had not been solved.

Time seemed to be abundant, but it was not at all.

D*mn.

The Hima Eagle continuously accelerated. The Arcane Wind was activated with all its might. It even glided along the flight belt and rushed to Moroni to land as quickly as possible. The technicians from the Chinese and Russian sides were already waiting. They welcomed him and carefully took the phone, fiddling with it in the soundproof room prepared by the police station.

Kang De went to the second floor and saw Chakat II, who was still arguing with Little Bob. There was a cup beside the king’s hand. When he looked at Kang De, his lips were a little dry. He was still waving his hand, grinning, and even gesturing with rap. His body language, expression, and language were very vivid.

It was as if Little Bob was in front of him.

He was really good at talking.

Their gazes met and Kang De nodded. The king only smiled. Kirov came to Kang De’s side and patted his shoulder. He whispered, “It’s good that you’re here. The French are already very impatient.”

As expected, the king gave Kang De a look and shouted, “Man! When did I lie to you? Kang De has already returned, and this is our sincerity! Chinese friends keep their promises, and French baddies are treacherous. You, you, are you. Your words are equivalent to farts.”

He waved. Kang De walked over and sat at the side.

Little Bob Burroughs’s voice sounded, “Kang De? It’s good to meet you.”

He spoke English, so Kang De could understand these two sentences.

He smiled. “Why are you happy? Is it because I destroyed your plan, killed your people, or made you run around like a dog now?”

The king gave him a thumbs up and translated in a cheerful black accent.

Little Bob was a little unhappy. “Don’t you speak English?”

Kang De asked, “Why should I speak foreign languages?”

“Then change to a good interpreter.”

“I think this interpreter is already impressive enough.”

“It’s clearly not enough. He’ll lower our style.”

“Forget it. Is a murderer like you worthy of style?”

“Why not?” Little Bob said. “We surpass mortals and stand above this world. We’re already different from mortals. Don’t you think so?”

Kang De clicked his tongue and said, “Your mentality has changed quite quickly. You’ve just gotten power and you’re already arrogant.”

“I’ve always wanted to talk to you, Kang De. Ever since I knew the truth, ever since I had strength… Kang De, we’re extraordinary. We’re the same kind of people. We’re noble new humans. Why fight and kill for those ants? I understand your anger and am willing to apologize to you and your father and compensate you with all my might. You know that it’s always better to be friends than enemies.”

“Oh… let me think.” This time, Kang De said in English, “The answer is… f*ck no.”

Little Bob said in a low voice, “Why?”

Kang De leaned over and smiled, “Because my friend is racist. He discriminates against white people and feels that you’re selfish, arrogant, and unpredictable. You’re born mean and feel too superior. You’re self-centered and look down on people of color. You eat ugly and are cold-blooded. You’re filled with the bandit gene and can’t stand others doing well. By the way, I don’t agree with him, but I think you quite match these characteristics.”

Little Bob said indifferently, “This is a misunderstanding.”

Kang De smiled and said, “Misunderstanding? Then let’s talk face to face and you can change this impression. How about it?”

Little Bob snorted, “I’m not stupid. Enough. Since you’re unwilling to be friends with me, let’s make a deal. Just like what I suggested to that Nico…”

In the next moment, an imperceptible sound sounded from the receiver.

Little Bob shouted, “What’s that sound?”

The king reacted extremely quickly and said in confusion, “What?”

Little Bob said sternly, “No, I…”

Chakat II immediately looked at Kirov, who immediately gestured to the person guarding downstairs to urge him. At the same time, the phone was immediately hung up, but then the technician rushed out of the soundproof room and shouted, “The French military base! He’s at the French military base!”
