Civilization: Beyond Two Worlds

Chapter 544: 544
Chapter 545-Bring Up the Pot

And so, it ended.

If Ah Xing had suddenly appeared, Tina would definitely not have stopped with how intoxicated she was at that time.

Even more radical, Princess Goethe might even invite Ah Xing to a multiplayer event.

However, Ah Xing not only appeared suddenly, but he also hit the wall and shouted out of shock and anger. Even if it was just a roar, it was still a nuclear explosion in the tense and dangerous Maple Leaf Palace.

The palace guards reacted immediately and informed the archduke immediately. At that moment, the archduke was still in the audience hall with the nobles, listening to the messenger’s report and asking questions. When they learned of the news, everyone was shocked. Under such circumstances, if Kant were to be assassinated in Maple Leaf Palace, there was no need to f * cking discuss countermeasures. Everyone could just go and watch the meteor shower together.

Therefore, a group of people rushed over.

Under such circumstances, Tina had no choice but to stop no matter how high her head went.

Even though she loved Kant to the extreme and wished she could take ten pounds of Kant’s body weight overnight, Tina still lacked the courage to make her father, the ministers, and the nobles stand outside and listen.

The pressure, love, and emotions that she had accumulated before exploded out boldly. At that moment, the shyness of a woman took over. The disheveled Tina hid in the bedroom. Kant could only pretend that nothing had happened and come outside. He perfunctorily dealt with the Goethe people who had heard the news and told them not to make a fuss.

Although the archduke’s expression was very ugly, and although the other Goethe nobles also had subtle expressions, they did not say anything or pester him. After all, the two sides were still in an awkward state of loathing each other, so it was better to reduce contact. So they left dejectedly.

They still had to go back and listen to the details of the Battle of Distant Harbor.

As for what had just happened?

Everyone knew that.

After all, these people were all at the top of Goethe’s pyramid. Some might be stupid, some might be bad, and some might be weak and vulnerable, but no matter what, they were definitely not virgins.

Seeing that the crowd had dispersed, Kant was about to turn back when he suddenly saw a figure standing in the corner.

Hong San noticed his master’s gaze and said seriously,” Your Highness, you’ve calculated it well. It’s exactly five hours.”

—I’ll go to hell with you.

” Understood?” Kant rolled his eyes and pointed at him.

“Understood.” Hong San bowed.

Inside the room.

Tina and Ah Xing sat across from each other, their eyes locked. It was as if sparks were surging in the air.

Ah Xing’s eyes widened in anger. There was still a tinge of redness on his face. It looked like he had not recovered from the shocking scene just now. That scene was indeed exciting. Whenever she thought about it, she felt her body heat up. She even felt a little weak. She even thought that if Kant did this to her…

Thinking about it, her face turned even redder.

Tina, on the other hand, was obviously much calmer. She smoothed out the creases on her lapel and long dress, but did not change her clothes. She only put on a shawl embroidered with light gauze. Facing Ah Xing’s angry gaze, she inadvertently pulled the shawl slightly, revealing a red mark on her neck and traces of saliva on her chest.

“You!” Ah Xing said angrily.

Before he could finish his sentence, the door was pushed open and Kant walked in.

Ah Xing’s angry expression immediately disappeared. He put his legs together, put his hands on his knees, lowered his head slightly, and looked up, looking like a good baby trying to please him.

Tina was leaning against the soft back of the sofa. Her eyes were moving, and she was looking at him with a little flirtatious eyes.

The flirtatious look in her eyes made Kant’s pants twitch.

After all, in an instant, he was still intimately entangled with this beauty. That fiery passion, that fragrant lips and teeth, touch, smell, taste, hearing, sight, that was the ultimate enjoyment of the senses.

However…

Kant sighed and turned to look at Ah Xing. Why are you here?”

“I ran over!”Ah Xing puffed out his chest.

“.. I asked you why you came over.”

” You bastard!” Kant’s expression changed as soon as he finished speaking.” Did Horus send you here?!”

Ah Xing blinked. I wanted to come.”

The Fire Stealer shook his head. I told you to wait in the distant port first.”

“Wait for you and the golden retriever to do something bad?” Scarlet Queen pouted.

Kant blushed. He felt a little guilty under Ah Xing’s aggrieved gaze.

Obviously, Ah Xing was still Ah Xing after all. Although he had already transformed into a human, he still had the instincts of a beast. What were the instincts of a beast? She would take an inch and take a mile, and she would watch the wind and steer the ship. When the wind was favorable, she would chase after him, and when the wind was against her, she would whine. Now that she saw Kant’s guilty expression, she immediately became motivated.

She jumped up and quickly hugged Kant’s arm. Tears rolled down her cheeks.” Why did Kant do this to her?!” Why don’t you do it with me?”

The main thing is that when I see your face, I will immediately think of your gorilla state and laugh.

Of course, Kant would not say such words.

But he did see the dissatisfaction, jealousy, and even panic in Ah Xing’s eyes.

The fear of losing something.

“I…” Ah Xing said,” I don’t know what’s going on, but I just feel uncomfortable! He was even very sad! I’m just not happy to see Kant acting like that with the golden retriever! I don’t think that’s the case. I don’t want it to be like this. I clearly knew Kant earlier. In fact, I think it’s a long, long time ago…”

Kant’s heart skipped a beat.

He thought of Asha.

It was almost certain that Ah Xing was the last person with negative light, Asha, from the previous era. She and Kant were entangled in multiple dimensions, completing a perfect contradiction. She had received images from the future in the past, and she had transmitted information and missions to the current Kant.

After giving her one last hug, she disappeared into the illusion of time and space.

Kant did not know what she had experienced or encountered after completing her mission. He only knew that after countless years, Kant, who had wandered in another world in loneliness and depression on the Seal Islands sealed by the gods, had accidentally rescued a gorilla that was in danger.

Now, it seemed that Asha had indeed disappeared. After using Ah Xing’s body to complete the final communication, the will from the past had been shattered. Ah Xing was still Ah Xing. However, it seemed that Asha’s spirit and will still affected her in some way.

So, this guy was left in Far Harbor because he sensed something was wrong with his beast-like intuition and the influence of Asha’s remnant will, so he ran all the way back from Far Harbor?

Kant did not know whether to laugh or cry. Then, he felt a sense of sadness and confusion. Previously, he had hugged Tina and was shocked by Ah Xing. Now, he was much calmer. Worry and worry rose again. Ah Xing, the old Asha, Tina, and…

The gorilla looked at him pitifully.

At this moment, Tina, who was sitting at the side, said nonchalantly,”Tsk.”

The pitiful little girl shook her head like a lion and bared her teeth like a ferocious dog.” What?!”

The Tomahawk Princess leaned forward slightly. The cloak on her right shoulder slipped off, revealing her beauty that could topple a country. She cast a seductive glance at Kant.” If you want it, then snatch it with your own abilities. What’s the point of crying and pretending to be pitiful?”

“I… I…”

“What’s so great about you?” Ah Xing shouted. Snatch…I’ll snatch it!”

After saying that, she imitated Tina’s expression and turned around with a smile.

“..”

Hiss.

Endure, endure, endure.

Kant took a deep breath. The muscles on his face twitched irregularly.

The time they spent together on the Saint Seal Islands was too unforgettable.

” Kant!” Ah Xing could still tell. She was anxious and angry.

“Do you want to learn a few moves from me?” Tina asked with a smile. As long as you promise me one condition…”

She seemed to have returned to normal…No, it was even worse than before. Although Ah Xing had interrupted the good thing earlier, it was still a historic breakthrough. This meant that their intimate relationship had improved rapidly.

“No way!” Ah Xing shouted. Your golden retriever is very bad!”

The princess stood up elegantly. She pushed her golden hair behind her and walked toward Kant gracefully.” Then…” I won’t stand on ceremony.”

“What do you want to do! I won’t allow it!”

“Hehe.”

Seeing that something terrible was about to happen, there was a gentle knock on the door.

“Your Highness, Hong San requests an audience.” The voice that was always steady and reliable calmly sounded.

Ah, this guy, he always grasps the timing so precisely. He’s my Zhang Liang.

” Wait!” Kant heaved a sigh of relief.” Wait!”

He saw that Tina and Ah Xing were still staring at each other and called out again,”What’s the matter?”

Hong San, who was standing outside the door, immediately understood and said in a deep voice,” Your Highness, I have conveyed Your Highness ‘request to the emissaries of the Empire and the Council. I asked them to provide the list of Goethe’s dignitaries and lackeys who colluded with foreign forces as soon as possible, including the list of spies who instigated rumors in Danfeng Lucerne and Distant Port. They should be provided in a complete and accurate manner. This is one of the prerequisites for the subsequent negotiations. That’s what I said.”

The reliable retainer, advisor, and military advisor reported in a wise and calm tone.

“They have agreed to report this request back to the country quickly.”

” Including the conclusion of the Battle of Distant Harbor, as well as the subsequent handover and redemption of captives, medical treatment and accommodation, the disposal of warships, and even the problem of the element of contradiction…I’ve already given appropriate pressure and instructions.”

Hong San’s detailed report was full of schemes and calculations.

At the very least, Tina, who was still fighting with Ah Xing just now, had gradually turned her attention to him.

The people of Aurora reported again,” That’s all I need to report, but I still took the liberty to come here and ask Your Highness to give me some advice. Although we won the battle of Distant Harbor, the negotiation table after victory is the biggest determining factor. Moreover, after today’s incident, we have entered a state of hostility with the Goethe aristocrat. There are many matters, follow-up policies, and so on. Your Highness needs to give us a direction…”

Hong San paused for a moment.

Then, he said through the door,” After the battle, Your Highness needs to rest quietly. I will take my leave now. However, I still need Your Highness to pay more attention to the matters mentioned above. I also need Your Highness to return to the distant port as soon as possible to take charge of the situation. After all, the Dragon Army suffered the most casualties. We still need to pay attention to the reaction of the Dragon Island…”

Wait, what are you doing?

Retreat?

You…

Kant was anxious. However, Tina had already tucked her shawl into her shoulders, covering the red marks on her neck and the skin on her chest. She rolled her eyes at Kant.

Her soft and sweet lips opened and she said silently,”How naughty.”

Then, the princess raised her voice and said,” No wise monarch would reject his most capable advisor and courtiers because he was obsessed with women. I don’t want to become a ‘femme fatale’ in the history books of Aurora. Mr. Hong, please come in and talk. National affairs always come first.”

Her words were spoken as if she was the hostess, natural and generous, understanding and reasonable.

Although Ah Xing could not say such words even if he broke his head, it did not stop her from instinctively sensing Tina’s demonstration of power towards her. She puffed twice and shouted,”I…” Me too!”

“..”

Where did you get Yide from?

Hong San said that he was being rude and pushed the door open.

According to common sense, he should be complimenting Tina at this moment, praising her for being reasonable and righteous. However, this fellow was a shrewd person. The Scarlet Queen was standing beside him, so he had nothing better to do than praise Tina.

“Your Highness.” Hong San did not look away and bowed.

“Mr. Hong, please take a seat.”

Tina chuckled. She then held Kant’s arm and turned to look at him.” Although it’s a national matter, can I listen to it?” After all, what Kant wants is people who can walk side by side with him, right?”

Ah Xing hugged the other side, unwilling to be outdone. I want to hear it too!”

One on the left and one on the right, turning Kant into Claude.

Seeing this scene, Hong San still had a smile on his face, but he suddenly thought of a conversation he had with Horus. He had to admit that at this moment, seeing this scene, he did have a feeling that the alchemical product called the camera might indeed have its uses.

Thus, a strange negotiation began.

Hong San sat on a chair.

Opposite them was a long sofa. Kant was in the middle, while the two ladies were sandwiched on both sides.

Hong San held back his laughter and tried his best to look calm.

However, after getting into the topic, Tina also threw away the elements of jealousy and participated in the discussion with her wisdom and insights. It was no exaggeration to say that today’s discussion would determine the future of Goethe’s country.

It even determined the future direction of the international situation.

” The game in the mortal world, whether it’s between people, organizations, or even countries, is all about coercion and bribery.

” His Highness has returned,” Hong San said.” The Sword of Intimidation has risen once again, and a powerful naval force that can change the current naval warfare system has appeared out of nowhere. The word ” intimidation ” can already be achieved.”

” Of course, even with the threat of forbidden spells and warships, the Imperium, Sunset Moon, and even the Council still have an overwhelming advantage over Goethe in terms of overall national strength. The lord is able to maintain his deterrence because he is taking an unconventional approach rather than suppressing the other countries with a dignified manner. Therefore, he cannot make the other countries submit to him completely.”

“Therefore, in addition to coercion, there must be temptation.”

” Goethe is now the enemy of the entire world, but in the end, there are only three enemies: the Sunset Moon Dynasty, the Holy Empire, and the Arcane Magic Council.”

” The three of them do not have a harmonious relationship, and they are not vassals. They are on guard against each other and compete with each other in various fields. However, if the pressure or temptation from the outside world causes the three of them to abandon their prejudices and choose to join forces, the threat is obviously great. It is almost equivalent to half of the world joining forces. If their wills are unified, it is enough to resist the destructive threat brought by the Forbidden Spell and the giant ship…”

” And now, they do have a reason to join forces.”

” In the Battle of Distant Harbor, the new deterrence displayed by His Highness, your potential revenge, the fact that the fleets of all the other countries were captured together, the powerful Paragon Element, and its potential strategic prospects are all enough to make the three monarchs consider the possibility of an alliance.”

” Therefore, the next diplomatic point is to use temptation to completely break the possibility of their alliance.”

Kant nodded repeatedly.

Things had to be done step by step, whether it was internal cleaning or external threats.

However, he had to have a long-term plan and consideration.

For example, the arrangement of captives, the negotiation with the envoys, and even the extortion of the conditions in secret had to be carried out according to this consideration policy and plan. If they wanted to break the possibility of the alliance of the three countries with temptation, they had to treat them differently in terms of negotiation and handling.

In other words, if he roped in one of them, the potential alliance would collapse, and the other two would be anxious.

Then which country should he rope in…Wait a minute!

Kant’s heart skipped a beat. Then, as if nothing had happened, he said,” About this, I think it’s better to make some initial contact before considering it. The three countries need some time to digest this failure. We still have enough time. We should first sweep away the rebellion within Goethe’s ranks with lightning speed…”

Tina said gently,” It’s okay. We’re just discussing now. It’s not a big deal to discuss. Then, Mr. Hong, in your opinion, how should we lure and divide the potential alliance of the three countries? In other words, which country should we rope in and win over?”

“..”

Oh, oh, oh,

In an instant, the Skyquaking Dragon’s gaze became distant and deep. It silently reminded the young counselor to think of Xun Yu, Xun You, and Xu You.

Hong San’s eyes flashed with a hint of uncertainty.

The heavens had mercy on him. He was just discussing the matter, but…

“Reporting to Your Highness, there are benefits to both of them.”

Hong San lowered his head and said,” The Empire shares a continuous border with Goethe. The capital of the Empire is built near the sea. My lord’s deterrence will be effective. Moreover, the Empire will bear the brunt of the war.”

” The current Emperor must want to repair his relationship with Your Highness. Besides, they are both human countries, so they should be closer. After the alliance, the rich resources in the vast territory of the Empire will be used by Your Highness. Goethe will no longer have to worry about the threat in the east. This is a strong support.”

” Needless to say, the Arcane Magic Council’s advantages are also what we urgently need. They have a solid foundation, high-end talents, and magical technology. In addition, the Council’s developed sea trade and a large number of subordinate cities can also provide extremely important resources. Moreover, if we negotiate with the Council, we can also use this to repair our relationship with the Spell Casters in Goethe’s country. These mages could have become our allies and not our enemies.”

“As for Mu Yue…”

” It can greatly ease the tension caused by the previous war. In addition, the elves dominate the world, and the alliance of the strong will make the Empire and the Council anxious. Moreover, the elves have the abundant resources of the Empire and the magical advantage of the Council. They have many subordinate countries, which can provide a large number of human resources for them to use. They can even intimidate the villains in Goethe. After all, they are already afraid of the elves…”

Well said, well said.

Kant looked at him approvingly.

He was just about to reject this proposal with a stern tone that said,” Those who are not of my race must have different intentions.”

Tina then said,” Other than that, Kant and the elven royal family have maintained a friendly personal relationship. During the Battle of Distant Harbor, the elven fleet also deterred the Empire’s fleet that was about to attack. They protected Distant Harbor to a certain extent, and the Twilight Moon fleet suffered the least damage. This is the best point to improve our relationship. We can start from here and send a signal of peace.”

“I can even restore communication and communication with Aurora through the channels of the elves…”

“..”

Oh, oh, the kettle jumped up by itself! And he also swept the other kettle over!

Kant’s expression stiffened.

Tina turned around and smiled.” Kant, let’s choose Mu Yue.”

P.S. 1: Although I’ve said it many times, it’s still so damn strange. Why does it feel so good to write about men…
