Civilization: Beyond Two Worlds

Chapter 186 - 186 Let All the Green-Skinned of the World Unite!



186 Let All the Green-Skinned of the World Unite!

On Earth, oil was a very, very important resource.

Burning it was actually the most prodigal and wasteful use.

If all the oil on Earth disappeared overnight, most of the industrial production activities in the world would immediately stop. Even people’s food, clothing, and transportation could not be guaranteed. That’s right, what you ate, wore, used, and cooked on a daily basis could, directly and indirectly, be related to oil…

Looking at the history of humans on Earth in recent decades, oil really played an indispensable role. Apart from industrial development, it also dominated the process of history.

Some countries became rich overnight because of this, and some countries were beaten up more than once because of this. Countless things were sad and happy because of the fall in the price of crude oil, and the fate of countless people was affected by it.

People desperately searched for a substitute, but they could not leave it and instead searched for more.

Yes, oil was like masturbation.

However, this was not the point.

Most importantly, a group of green-skinned people could casually find an oil well in a completely unfamiliar country without any experience, equipment, or technology?

Moreover, there was no distillation process at all. There was only such a huge lump of oil. If he casually mixed some messy things and poured them into the fuel tank, he could start the engine. There was no problem at all. Sparks flew all the way and scared the elves away.

This was very magical and green-skinned.

If such a green-skinned living resource detection radar was placed on Earth, it would probably make the land, resources, and energy mineral companies of the various countries go crazy with joy.

—D*mn, if I were a little black-hearted and had a stronger faction, I could completely learn from the ancestors of the Westerners and achieve the unsurpassed accumulation of exploited capital.

That was not right.

Kang De looked at this group of green-skinned people. These burly muscular monsters were also looking at him. They had green faces, fangs, and bloody mouths. They could scare children to tears with a smile on their faces.

His gaze landed on the orcs.

Iron armor, metal decorations, and huge weapons looked very powerful, but they were just normal goods. These iron products and accessories were clearly pieced together. He could even deduce the source from those parts—for example, an iron pot, steel shield, large sword, carriage bar, and so on.

Kang De raised his eyebrows, then waved at the Autobot and said in Chinese, “They have this talent. Even if they didn’t know the use of oil previously, they should have a need for ironware, right? Why don’t they use this ability to find iron ores? There are also gold and silver mines. If this method is so useful, the orcs would have long been hunted and raised by the various races of the continent to be extinct. How could they dare to casually appear in the human world?”

At this point, he suddenly discovered something in surprise, “Eh, why do you speak the foreign language?”

The previous communication with the green-skinned was in the other world’s language.

The Autobot’s tone was still filled with confusion. The short period of time he had left his daddy and traveled with the green-skinned people had really broadened his horizons. After all, the children loved to ask why when they were young.

“I don’t know either. Previously, Father taught me the language here. I’ve remembered it firmly. I’ve also recorded your conversation with the others. I tried to summarize and summarize some patterns from it, but my progress was not fast. However, after encountering them, they were very happy and shouted around me. I could not communicate with them and just stood in a deadlock talking separately. Soon, I unknowingly learned the language here…”

At this point, his iron son said in a complicated tone, “These green-skinned… are a little strange. To be honest, Father, I won’t be surprised if they do anything else…”

After being surprised, Kang De was even more puzzled, “But this can’t answer my question. Instead, it makes things even more confusing. Since the orcs have such an unreasonable ability, they should have been captured and destroyed long ago. Otherwise, they would be powerful enough to defeat everything. How could it be the elves’ turn to be the overlord…”

At this moment, Heaven Slash shouted, “Great Tyrant! What are you talking about over there?”

Kang De returned to his senses and suppressed the doubts in his heart. There would be no result if he asked his iron son this question. After all, it was an outsider like him. Regarding the foundation and history of the green-skinned, he still had to ask the people of this world… There was no hurry.

He turned around and walked over, asking, “Heaven Slash, you found me. What should I do?”

This concerned the holy ultimate mission of this trip. The green-skinned waved his machete and roared excitedly, “Of course it’s to return to the tribe together and let you be the tyrant of our entire race. Let the weak chickens of the other tribes worship you! If you’re not convinced, slash until they’re convinced!”

Kang De asked, “There are so many humans. Why me?”

“Because it’s you!”

The green-skinned did not have much patience, but because the other party was a ferocious and powerful tyrant, it was fine to snort a few more times. Heaven Slash patiently explained, “What the Prophet said can’t be wrong! You’ll bring us powerful explosions and let all the green-skinned fight and explode!”

“We have to follow you and do everything. From the plain to the high mountains, from the high mountains to the sea, let all the small shrimps hear our voices and let all the little bean sprouts know our might until…”

At this point, he thought of the scene described to him by the old and deflated Prophet, causing the green-skinned with a single brain to tremble in excitement. He raised his machete and shouted the slogan that excited the green-skinned heart.

“—The green-skinned people of the world unite!”

“Waaaaaagh!”

The orcs wailed together.

After all, these green-skinned people were optimistic and wild by nature. Moreover, they were irritable and angry, and their thoughts were extremely jumpy. Therefore, the huge green-skinned race was in a state of disunity. The various tribes despised each other and fought and slashed each other all day. Everyone looked down on each other. After all, one green-skinned person was a fool, and a group of green-skinned people was a nest of fools. No one knew what would happen if thousands of green-skinned people gathered together.

Although the orcs had a strong tradition of tribal discrimination and internal strife, they still knew their own business and knew how difficult it was for the green-skinned to unite and unify. In this way, how powerful an achievement was it to be able to unite the orcs of the world? How ferocious a guy must be to be able to do such a thing.

With this in mind, they looked at Kang De with fanatical eyes.

“…”

How should they put it?

This was the plot of a child of fate.

He had been treated as the leader and ruler of the prophecy by a group of guys who were very good at fighting. Moreover, they admired him in all kinds of ways. They fought for him, spoke for him, and acknowledged him as their boss. Kang De had seen such a scene many times in online novels. This plot was actually very satisfying, especially after experiencing it personally.

…As if!

This plot still depended on the setting. It was awesome to watch. How could it be the same as being treated as the boss in the prophecy by a group of Emperors and Heavenly Venerates and the leader in the prophecy by a group of beggars?!

Therefore, Kang De could not be happy to be treated as the tyrant in the prophecy by a group of wild green-skinned people who were almost demented. He even sighed.

If you wanted to say that hundreds of thousands of green-skinned soldiers who could crush everything ran over and bowed, that was fine. Just a few dozen happy green-skinned people who could find oil wells with their bare hands and process oil with their bodies would invite you to be the chief technical consultant of a very backward and simple green-skinned tribe… It was very strange, okay?

Alright, this was not the point.

The most important thing was appearance.

If these orcs were not orcs in the traditional sense, but cute girls with furry ears and tails who were coquettish and beautiful with huge breasts or carried some other animal characteristics or habits, such as donkeys or killer whales, ran to his side, surrounded him, and invited him to work with them, he would definitely not be humble and reject them.

Now…

Say no to ugly trolls.

He did not say it firmly, but he still shook his head and said, “I have something to do here. I can’t go over there with you.”

The green-skinned was anxious when he heard this. “What’s the matter?”

Kang De pointed outside the city and said indifferently, “Those sharp ears came to my friend’s house to burn, kill, and plunder. I want to help my friend protect his home and kill these sharp ears to settle scores with them.”

The green-skinned said happily, “We like to fight! If the Great Tyrant wants to fight, we can help. When we return to the tribe, call the boys and cut their ears together!”

When Kang De heard this, his heart stirred. Then, he shook his head and said, “This…”

Before he could finish, a familiar voice sounded from behind, “Mr. Dong Zhuo! Mr. Dong Zhuo! Why are you here? You’ve helped us a lot again. I really don’t know how to thank you…”

When Kang De heard this, he subconsciously frowned.

Turning around, Mayor Nick hurriedly walked out under the protection of everyone and walked over. He had a smile on his face and a happy and grateful expression. There was even a trace of urgency and fanaticism. Although he looked at Kang De, he could not help but size up the orcs from the corner of his eye. With his shrewdness, he had lost his composure.

“You indeed don’t know how to thank me. I’ve protected the city twice. Think of the countless lives, wealth, and status. The value of these can’t be measured, right?”

Kang De said indifferently, “Since you can’t do it, don’t think about it. Why don’t you thank those soldiers who are far weaker than me but can fight bravely in the face of the elves’ blades and terrifying deaths? Those who can fight the elves to the death in that desperate situation are the most precious strength of this country. Unfortunately, they rashly lost their lives. Please don’t forget them. Even if you can’t thank the dead, you can always compensate their families.”

Nick’s smile did not stiffen as he said, “I’ve arranged these things long before the war. Please believe me, every warrior will be paid enough. Even if they die in battle, they can benefit their families.”

Kang De nodded and said, “I believe you, but even if they receive generous material rewards, most families won’t immediately withdraw from their sorrow, right? Those soldiers who were lucky enough to not die have experienced great horror and witnessed countless deaths and blood. At this moment, their hearts are extremely tired and fragile. Apart from money, wine, food, and women, I’m afraid they need other support and care.”

“Mr. Mayor, the battle has just ended. You have many things to do and shouldn’t have come to me. I don’t need your care, nor do I need you to thank me.”

He looked into Mayor Nick’s eyes and said indifferently, “Don’t waste time here.”

These words were very rude, so much so that the officials behind the mayor revealed dissatisfaction, but this expression quickly disappeared. After all, Kang De was right. He had made a decisive contribution to protecting the city this time. As an outsider, he had fought for Valentine and saved countless lives. With such contributions, it was not a big deal to argue with the mayor. After all, he had not even said anything dirty or insulted anyone.

Moreover, behind this person stood a terrifying mechanical giant and a group of ferocious green-skinned people. They all held huge and cruel weapons and were very terrifying.

The mayor understood what Kang De meant.

He slowly stopped smiling and looked at Kang De without saying anything.

“Then, we’ll take our leave first,” Kang De said. “They’ve helped a lot by fighting for Valentine all the way here. If the mayor is interested, you can send some wine, meat, and food. In addition, when cleaning up the battlefield and counting the gains, if you discover any enchanted items, please show me first.”

The mayor said, “I’m holding a banquet at the city hall…”

Kang De shook his head and said, “Is this the time to celebrate? I’m going to the Vidal Chamber of Commerce. I’ve calculated that there’s still time there. We’ll live there.”

With that, he left with his iron son and the green-skinned people.

Nick looked at their backs and suddenly chased after them. Ignoring everything, he grabbed Kang De’s arm and said, “I have something to tell you. Please come here.”

Kang De said, “Let’s talk here.”

The mayor shook his head. There was even a trace of weakness and pleading in his tone. “Please.”

Kang De was silent for a moment before sighing.

In the quiet alley, there were only two people. Nick looked at Kang De and lowered his head. “I heard your previous conversation with the orcs. I’m very sorry.”

Kang De said indifferently, “It’s fine. They’re also loud—then?”

Nick suddenly looked up and said in a low voice, “There’s a huge number of green-skinned people and their combat strength is shocking. If not for the fact that they’re in a state of disunity and are always fighting among themselves, they would have long become a disaster in the north. Now that they’re willing to fight for you…”

Kang De interrupted, “I know what you want to say, but my answer is no.”

Nick said excitedly, “Why? They’re clearly happy to fight…”

Kang De said calmly, “It’s their own business if they like to fight. If they return to their nest to fight, or if they go out and find someone to fight, they’ll be beaten until their faces are covered in blood and they’ll die on the ground. It doesn’t matter, but after listening to me, they’ll all fight the overlord of the continent. If they die, every life will be lost because of me.”

Nick said, “But…”

“There are no buts. Helping Goethe was my own decision. I’m responsible for it and enjoy all the benefits and consequences, but I’m me and they’re them.”

Kang De slowly said, “It’s not that if they call me a Great Tyrant and treat me as the person in the prophecy, I’ll naturally take on this role and enjoy the power that comes with it. What they think and what I do are two different things. I don’t know them or do anything for them, so I won’t let them bleed for my selfish reasons. There’s no such logic in the world.”

“I know what you’re thinking and know that these green-skinned trust me very much. Perhaps if I say a word, they’ll treat it as an imperial edict and do it without hesitation. However, the more this is the case, the more I can’t use them and use trust and kindness to do this. I’ll be struck by lightning.”

At this point, he reached out and tapped Nick’s chest.

“Do you understand? This is what I mean. Don’t do anything unnecessary and put away your thoughts as soon as possible, lest you backfire. At that time, I guarantee that you won’t even be able to cry.”
