Civilization: Beyond Two Worlds Novel - Chapter 27

Kang De walked back.

“It’s really useful.”

He put on the Eagle Eye Ring and took out the nail gun to shoot a few times. He indeed felt a mysterious force affecting his body. His hand seemed to be more stable, his mind seemed to be calmer, and his shots were more accurate.

He put down the nail gun and took off the ring. Looking at it in his hand, he could also see the element array diagram. The structure was complicated and detailed, and it was even more complicated than the Flame Roar, but it was not completely clueless.

“However, what element is this… precision?” He muttered to himself, “What object should I extract it from? A scope? D*mn, that’s too expensive.”

The crossbow found in the police station’s contraband storage room had a scope.

However, there was only one. Kang De could not bear to extract it.

Perhaps he could extract… D*mn, where could he find one?

“There’s also this Cat’s Eye Stone Talisman’s night vision. Infrared imaging device?”

This was more practical, but… he did not know where to extract the night vision element.

Night vision element, precision element.

“These two elements… are a little profound and high-level.”

Kang De thought to himself.

Sharpness, hardness, fire, and ice were all simple… These elements were very common and easy to understand. They were all very basic things.

However, night vision and precision felt very complicated.

“Elements like flame seem to be simple, while elements like night vision are like compounds. Moreover, they are compounds with very complicated molecular structures…”

Wait.

A thought flashed through Kang De’s mind.

Single matter was a pure substance formed by elements.

Compound was a pure substance composed of two or more elements.

In other words…

“Can the two simple foundation elements be combined into higher-level elements?”

As this thought flashed through his mind, Kang De rolled his eyes.

“D*mn, should I write a periodic table in the other world?”

However, it had to be said that this was indeed a very reasonable train of thought.

“Look at this shield… It’s quite heavy.”

Kang De raised the Holy Shield with one hand and observed it in his hand. Then, he heaved a sigh of relief, “There are so many beautiful things about elves. They’re not as simple and rough as human products. I know this Immovable Mountain. The hardness element can be extracted from rocks and steel. The Fire Control Divine Light is also a fire element. Eh…”

He revealed an interesting expression.

The Flame Roar in the short sword was also an enchantment formed by the fire elements. The effect was to strengthen the flames and give the artifact the power to burn with flames. It was used to kill the enemy and burn the target.

The Fire Control Divine Light enchantment on the shield was also composed of fire elements, but the effect was to suppress flames. Both were composed of fire elements, but the array diagram was different and could unleash completely different effects.

He recalled the elemental structure of the Flame Roar.

“There’s a connection and a difference between the two…” He muttered, “I’m afraid this is the mystery of magic. It’s something that the mages learn in class learn step by step. They definitely understand, but I don’t understand…”

After all, on this deserted island, even if he was willing to learn, no mage would teach him.

He looked up at the distant horizon.

“Continent…”

Forget it, forget it. Let’s not worry about that first and make use of what we can.

Immovable Mountain and the Fire Control Divine Light were both very useful enchantments that could be quickly copied. The former could be enchanted on shields and even fortifications to defend, and the latter was the same. Since it could be fireproof, it could be more exciting to set fire. Just thinking about it was very useful.

As for this necklace that added charm…

“Charm needs to be simple…”

Pink element diagrams circulated on the necklace. They were complicated but not too complicated.

However, where did the charm element have to be extracted from?

“Unfortunately, the extraction process is destructive…” Kang De touched his chin, “Otherwise, I can directly extract it from myself… There will definitely be a lot of gains.”

This enchantment was even more useless to him.

—Could it be that I, Kang De, the dignified successor of socialism, the possessor of a powerful superpower, the guest from another world who held the wealth of Earth’s civilization, would be reduced to wearing such a thing and relying on charm to earn a living?!

He did not hesitate to put this necklace around his neck.

Then, he took out his phone and opened the camera function.

“…F*ck!”

The unyielding man from Earth cursed.

Even if he was cursing… he was so f*cking handsome!

His face was still the same, but his eyes seemed to have become even more melancholic. His temperament seemed to have become even more charming. In short, there was a mysterious feeling that instantly turned Kang De from a fierce man holding an axe to a beautiful man.

“I didn’t expect to be so handsome in my life…”

He muttered, “I even want to participate in the idol competition…”

A huge sense of vanity ruled his mind. Kang De even wanted to keep this necklace.

At this moment, the parrot flew over. When it saw Kang De, it was stunned.

“233333!”

It let out this strange sound.

Then, it quickly flew away.

With a black face, Kang De pulled off the necklace and transformed back into a wild survival tactic man armed with an ax, shotgun, and burner bottle.

However, it was already too late.

Kang De could not communicate smoothly with these animals in words, but these animals of different species could communicate with each other in a way he could not understand. In just a moment, dust flew in front of him. The laughing parrot flew over with a group of animals. Their eyes were excited, as if they had come to see a fool.

“…Get lost!”

Twenty minutes later, Kang De intimidated these animals with the threat of alcohol and snacks and returned home.

There was still a long time until night. He had to study the enchantment and pack his things to prepare for the search tomorrow… The battle with the black beast today had exposed some problems.

“I need to upgrade my weapons, especially my long-range attacks.”

Enchantments, especially fire enchantment, could directly increase attack power. Needless to say, his physical weapons could be enchanted with the Flame Roar. The firearms could also be strengthened according to this train of thought.

The ammunition for the shotgun, handgun, and pistol was extremely limited. He was more used to using the nail gun. Sometimes, he would use the crossbow, but the advantage of the crossbow was that the arrow could be used repeatedly. However, one of the flaws of enchantment was that after exceeding the upper limit of the material, the enchanted object would be completely destroyed.

That was the nail gun.

Relatively speaking, the number of bullets was huge.

“Actually, there are other ideas… For example, adding a gun barrel to the muzzle of the nail gun, enchanting more than ten rounds of electromagnetic coils, or something like that. A Gauss rifle…”

He muttered to himself, “Pistols and shotguns have similar designs. Guns are composed of many parts. If I enchant and strengthen all kinds of parts in response, will they be stronger?”

Unfortunately, there was too little ammunition and too few guns.

Enchantment was not very meaningful, and there was a risk of destruction… That thing could not be obtained again.

“Why aren’t there any militia arsenals around the neighborhood…”

He should first enchant and strengthen the nails and make a few boxes of burning ammunition.

There were also other enchantments… Precision was unknown.

The night vision was the same. Where did the infrared night vision device come from… Wait.

He touched his chin and pondered, “Many animals have night vision…”

For example, cats.

Therefore…

Forget it, forget it. The cat was so cute. How could he extract from it?

Kang De thought for a moment and said, “However, I remember that cats have very good night vision. Firstly, it’s the eye structure. Secondly, there are more rod cells. Thirdly, it’s the diet structure. Cats kill snakes and rats and consume a large amount of taurine. Taurine is good for low-light vision. Taurine is a little familiar…”

He suddenly recalled, “Isn’t this something in Red Bull?”

The active ingredient in the energy drink.

Kang De got up and took a few bottles of Red Bull from the refrigerator.

After extraction, decomposition, and producing piles of elements of different colors, he saw it.

“…D*mn, there really is!”

Although the amount was not much… it was fine. There were many cans of Red Bulls.

Kang De, who had made progress in this aspect, was overjoyed.

Next, he had to study those useful and complicated enchantments.

The enchantments on the short sword and round shield were all very useful, and the composition was easy to extract.

However, the structure was relatively complicated.

He had to analyze it first to familiarize himself with it. He had to draw it first before memorizing it.

Kang De thought for a moment and took out his laptop.

“D*mn it.”

The Earthling muttered to himself, “I really didn’t expect that even if I transmigrate to an alternate world, there will be a day when I open the stupid CAD software again…”

Time to draw.

A long time passed until night.

Kang De appeared outside the Goethe camp. He wore sunglasses that flowed with an inexplicable brilliance as he walked through the darkness.

He was pushing a cart filled with boxes of all sizes.

“There’s some food and wine from my hometown. Consider it a welcome.”

Cleveland took the cart and smiled gently. “You’re too polite. The banquet is about to begin.”

The princess also came out to welcome him. She had changed her clothes and was wearing a white and gorgeous dress. She looked elegant and generous, and her noble temperament emitted.

Kang De nodded and smiled at her. “Hello, Tina. You’re very beautiful tonight.”

The princess elegantly raised her skirt and bowed.

They walked into the brightly lit camp together.

There were Goethe people standing in twos and threes beside the tent, all sizing up Kang De. Their gazes were curious and cautious. Kang De had fought twice in total and had already made them understand the strength of this Cathayan.

“I brought some things. I hope you like them.”

He handed the ingredients and condiments on the cart to the chef and the other kitchen members.

Kang De played a trick. He put small bags of various condiments into large bottles. This small trick was completely effective. When the chefs and apprentices saw the large bottles of various spices, they looked at Kang De as if he was the Eastern Emperor.

Their attitude had already changed from curiosity and indifference to serious respect and listening.

“This is the soup base for the hotpot…”

“As for instant noodles, cook them in a large pot. They’ll be ready in a while. Sprinkle the seasoning in. Yes, throw them all in. There’s not much… Hey, stop eating.”

Poor thing, licking the sauce packet of instant noodles. Are you a three-year-old child?

So on and so forth.

The banquet began even more lively.

There were a large number of different types of wine.

There was also food that was very delicious and had never been seen before.

Due to the spices, the fiery red transparent jars contained a terrifying and mysterious mixture of spices. There were awe-inspiring Eastern runes on the bottles. A dignified woman was looking at everyone calmly.

It felt too good.

The Goethe people were completely convinced by this generosity.

To sailors like them, money was worthy of respect and power. A person who could fight and had money naturally had to pay respects to him.

They toasted Kang De one by one.

He did not reject anyone.

After being strengthened by the crystal, it was already very difficult for him to get drunk.

However, he had to secretly extract the food he ate and the wine he drank.

He wanted to check for poison.

A necessary precaution was necessary.

In the hearty atmosphere, taking advantage of the alcohol, he called the dozen or so Goethe people who had been beaten up by him yesterday to the side… After all, a grudge was a grudge, so it was better to resolve it.

In any case, he had not suffered any losses yesterday. The ones who had suffered were all Goethe people. Some of them had been shot, some had been struck by an electric baton, and some had been sent flying by an axe. As a civilized and magnanimous Earthling, Kang De naturally had to show his attitude—it was meaningless to pursue who was right and who was wrong.

They arrived at the wide tent. It was the dormitory of their group.

“I know your temper. A promise is worth a thousand gold. If you say that you don’t mind, you won’t mind anymore.” Kang De took out a laptop from his backpack and opened it. “Look at this.”

Everyone’s gazes were attracted by the shining screen.

Amidst a piece of impassioned music, the Japanese man and woman who were honest with each other began to fight intensely.

The country bumpkins who had never seen the world widened their eyes.

Kang De’s voice seemed to be far away, “A total of three hours. For three hours, I’ll leave this with you. Let’s forget about your beating yesterday. You’re not allowed to mention it again or mind it. If anyone secretly hates me after this, you’ll not be considered a friend anymore. How about it?”

Looking at those dozen or so eyes, Kang De knew that tonight, in an instant, he had already become the eternal big brother of these Goethe people.
