Chapter 287 - 287 The Wireless Network Is Really Lousy



Another day passed.

Tagris’s lesson continued.

Hong San’s master’s evaluation and definition of the Phoenix Vision was “insight into the mysteries of the world”. It meant that he could see the fundamental changes in the appearance of the world and see some things that ordinary people could not see, such as the flow of magic power, the gathering of negative energy, the change in the concentration of elements… and so on.

This ability was very useful to Kang De.

!!

This was because the Fire Thief’s inheritance gave him the ability to break down matter and extract elements. His eyes could see the essence of the elements of things, especially magic items. He could read and rewrite the enchantment diagram. He could also see the construction of the elements of the spell model and even extract and break down magic… However, these two magical abilities required a higher level of arcane knowledge to better unleash them.

This was what the current Kang De lacked.

After all, it was the scientific system of another civilization.

If he let a foreigner who knew nothing run to Earth to learn high-energy physics, even an extremely smart person would probably not be able to learn much in ten to twenty years, because he had to start learning elementary school mathematics and junior high school physics… The first thing he had to learn was the thinking method of another civilization in another world.

This was the problem Kang De faced.

No, his question was even more troublesome, because he did not even have a teacher.

Tina had taught him some of the most basic things, but unfortunately, it had only been a short time and he had not learned anything. As for the girl’s original suggestion to introduce Kang De to an alchemist after arriving in the capital, it had now become a sad and bitter sigh… Things were unpredictable and always unexpected.

As for the mages on Valentine’s side… Their abilities and character were suspicious. After all, their magic attainments were not much related to their teaching standards, for example, Lord El-Melloi II.

In theory, Duke Tagris of Tiling should be the best magic teacher in the world. Not only did he have superb attainments and a famous reputation, but it was said that he also had many famous disciples. With his achievements and magic attainments, it was simply more than enough to teach Kang De to enter the sect…

Of course, that was only in theory.

This was because, through their contact in the past two days, Kang De discovered that this Tagris… was a fraud.

On the magic level.

After asking him for some magic knowledge and elemental common sense, this guy spoke logically at first, but after asking further, he knew that he was reading the book. Sometimes, he would even be stumped by Kang De’s questions. Facing Kang De’s subtle questioning gaze, he said impatiently, “This is a secret of the Twilight Dynasty. Don’t casually probe and don’t want to find out the defense secret of the Twilight Dynasty from me.”

—If you mock him a few more times, he’ll get angry.

The outcome could be imagined.

Kang De had crystals to strengthen his body, and he had the group of animals on the Holy Seal Islands as sparring partners. He had learned eight random battles and shone in many battles after leaving the island. He could even defeat the elite soldiers of the Dusk Legion with his powerful physical strength and battle instincts that had been tempered thousands of times… However, these were actually not enough in front of an elf like Tagris who was “born weak”.

This mage actually completely suppressed him in terms of strength and technique.

After Tagris won, he had to press Kang De to the ground and torture him. He had to either flick his head, scratch an itch, or poke around. He looked very happy as if he had found some long-lost fun from Kang De. After he was done laughing, he had to mock him.

“Brother, you can’t do this.”

Of course, in order to shut Kang De up and preserve the delicious snacks provided 24 hours a day, as well as deal with his questioning gaze, he would still teach him after mocking him.

Teach martial techniques, combat techniques, and killing experience.

It had to be said that compared to his lousy arcane magic attainments, this elf’s combat experience was really too impressive. The experience, techniques, and habits she imparted were often accurate and extremely effective, causing Kang De to be suddenly enlightened. Apart from cheering, he did not have any other thoughts.

At first, the gorilla was still very unhappy that Tagris was teaching martial arts and felt that she could teach him too. Later on, she was really happy and even continuously approached as if nothing had happened. As she ate, she pricked up her ears and listened. She euphemistically said, “I need to get closer and protect Kang De to prevent a pipsqueak like you from playing tricks.”

Later on, the gorilla even secretly ran over and asked Kang De, “Is he really a mage?”

Kang De only smiled. “Just treat him as one.”

Therefore, in the past few days, Kang De did not ask for magic knowledge. He focused on learning combat techniques from Tagris, along with the usage technique of the Phoenix Vision.

Clearly, Tagris used this eye technique as his vision. All his use revolved around “prediction, weakness lock, and dodging”.

“It’s… it’s because I’m a mage! A mage’s weakness is ultimately close combat, so I specially made up for this. My… my sister is the opposite. She’s a warrior, so she has to strengthen her spells. Therefore, her Phoenix Vision is mainly used to spy on the essence of the world like elemental change and magic flow…”

Kang De nodded.

They tacitly pretended to be stupid and kept up this self-deception.

“Unfortunately, Elandir won’t teach you…”

Sometimes, when they rested, the elf would sigh.

Kang De continuously handed over various flavors of snacks. “I don’t believe he’ll teach me well either.”

Tagris drank his nutritional drink and smiled proudly.

Then, Kang De said, “When I marry your sister in the future, let her teach me.”

“—Pfft! Get up and be beaten up! I remember that the royal library records the axe technique created by a Phoenix King. It’s very suitable for you. I’ll teach it to you now!”

Kang De, who had been taught a lesson again, really obtained a first-grade divine axe technique. It was bold and powerful. Moreover, the transformation was exquisite and exquisite. There was also the technique to use the force of the throwing axe. It was very suitable for Kang De in all senses. It was simply a perfect match.

There were some force execution techniques and usage that could not be explained clearly at the moment, but he was afraid that Kang De would forget them. Tagris even drew an illustration and explained. The strokes were gentle and grand, and the drawing was perfect.

It was just that Kang De’s actions were a little ugly.

That night, Kang De showed Hong San this drawing secret manual. On the one hand, he was proud, and on the other hand, he asked him to translate it for him. After all, he did not know the Elven language and did not even know the human words of the continent.

Hong San looked at it again and again and let Kang De demonstrate all the way.

“How did it go?”

After Kang De finished practicing, he said proudly, “What do you think?”

“I wasn’t looking.”

“A martial technique created by a certain Phoenix King…” Hong San lowered his head to look at the annotation a few times, then sneered, “I’ve never heard of a Phoenix King using an axe.”

“…Hmm?”

Hong San looked up at Kang De, “This axe technique is simple and easy to learn, but it’s difficult to master. This is because it has an extremely high requirement for the user. It requires powerful physical strength and terrifying combat awareness. At the same time, it also has throwing techniques. There are even a few axe techniques. The left hand is empty…”

He stretched out his hand and demonstrated, “…Like this. Although it’s empty, it’s always aimed in the direction the enemy or the enemy might attack. If you hold a light crossbow in your left hand, you can shoot. If there’s a magical weapon that can shoot continuously, it can be of greater use.”

“Therefore, the previous Phoenix Kings were all masters of the elves’ combat techniques. They would not create martial techniques that ignored techniques and relied on strength completely, let alone slightly clumsy axe techniques. They would not throw axes, let alone shoot at any time with a light crossbow in battle. Do you understand what I’m saying, Your Highness?”

He understood.

Kang De was silent.

In the next moment, he raised his head and stroked his hair with his hand. He said proudly, “I’m still the best.”

Hong San turned his head to the side.

After a while, Kang De slowly sat in a chair, crossed his legs, and sighed, “He’s so enthusiastic and good to me. It’s even more impossible for me to blindly fight the elves.”

At the very least, he had thought of smashing an entire nuclear power plant into the Twilight Capital daily. Now, it was already very difficult to have this thought.

Hong San turned around and looked at Kang De with a knowing smile, “It’s human nature.”

“…Perhaps that’s how it was originally.”

Kang De looked at the light in the house and said in a daze, “All living beings… from the moment they were conceived to the moment they were born, they were raised, cared for, learned, grew up, determined, and moved forward. They encountered sorrow and joy. There are people they love and things they hate. They will feel sorrow for others’ sorrow and joy. Even if the country is different, or even their race is different, they will have similar sorrow, joy, and fate, right?”

He said softly, “When I realize this, I can no longer treat the elves as a whole to hate and hostility. They’re no longer the crazy and depraved executioners of the Twilight Group, but many more lively individuals. I occasionally think of the elves I encountered earlier. They’re powerful and dignified, but they can give up their dignity for more important things…”

There was also what Tagris had said to him.

There was also that old friend on the Holy Seal Islands… She was very out of place and often did speechless things, but she was once a king who had once monitored the sky and opened the country’s door to be friends with the entire world.

He shrugged and said, “I can’t tell her that I’ve done many meaningful things along the way, including smashing your hometown to pieces. Not a blade of grass will grow for hundreds of years—that’s not good.”

Hong San put away the annotations of the diagrams in his hand. “Your Highness has new comprehensions?”

“It’s not new… Perhaps he realized it a long time ago.”

Over the years, the country had been powerful and its information was transparent. He also knew that many countries still had an inherent and ridiculous impression of China and were inexplicably hostile. It was not only the government but also the people.

“They’re clearly all humans. They all think that kindness and integrity are good. They all yearn for a better life and love their families… They have so many commonalities, but they’re hostile to another group under the deception of the media and the government. Perhaps those foreigners were only deceived. Perhaps they just lack understanding and are unwilling to face it head-on.”

He slowly sighed.

“Master said that this is the saddest and most helpless thing in the world. Between people and groups, they are driven by inherent prejudice and arrogance. They are unwilling to understand and believe.”

Hong San clapped and said, “I’m already very happy that Your Highness has such thoughts…”

As soon as he finished speaking, Kang De turned to look at him and said seriously, “But I think the Koreans really can’t do it.”

“…”

“…”

Hong San did not ask which country the Koreans were from.

He was quite speechless, then he sighed, “In short, Your Highness has agreed to negotiate?”

“…Yes.” Kang De leaned back in his chair and looked at the ceiling. “Sometimes the methods of revenge and pursuit are not only limited to war and killing… right? Goethe needs peace and rest, but revenge won’t stop because of this. The elves who started this war still have to pay the price, sooner or later.”

“In that case, I can give Cleveland and Nick an explanation.”

“Yes.”

Hong San nodded. “Now, we’re just waiting for Goethe and Princess Tina’s reply.”

“Yeah.”

Thinking of that girl, Kang De smiled.

The first person he had encountered in the other world.

The friendly first encounter, the misunderstanding midway, that beautiful face and blue eyes had always been reflected in his heart. The inheritance of the Fire Thief, the Knighting Ceremony, and the subsequent invitation, concern, guidance, and trust. Together with Cleveland, the memories between the first three people of the other world.

Although that engagement seemed a little embarrassing, who would not like such a beautiful, gentle, and cute girl… It had really been a long time.

He said softly, “After this battle, I’ll be able to see her. I’ll fulfill my earliest agreement and be a guest at her house… She invited me a long time ago.”

Hong San also smiled happily, “Perhaps we won’t be guests soon.”

“…Ah.”

No matter how one looked at it, having such a beautiful, understanding, and experienced many things with a girl as a wife was a very happy thing. A marriage of life, an engagement, and from now on, they would weather the storm together and face everything together… Was it decided?

For some reason, Wang Xiaoman’s figure flashed through Kang De’s mind.

“Your Highness?”

Hong San’s voice woke Kang De from his daze.

“Huh?”

“I mean, in order to fight that mysterious enemy… should we make other preparations?”

Kang De returned to his senses.

It was said that these visitors from outer space were very powerful, but with Tagris and the gorilla around, they should be able to deal with them, let alone a group of free fighters from the elves… Apart from that, the defense strength of Valentine seemed to be a little lacking. It was rare for the elves to be willing to support, so there was no need for humans to go.

However, as an Earthling…

Before he returned, he had bought many firearms from Myanmar. Although they did not involve heavy weapons, at the very least, those boxes of grenades and some landmines… could be useful, right?

“It’s almost time to discuss the ambush plan with Tagris. The battle can’t happen in Valentine, and we can’t let the other party escape. It’s best to capture him alive.”

Kang De touched his chin and pondered, “I’ve thought of an idea in the past two days…”

“Speaking of which…” Hong San asked, “Where’s Sir Horus?”

—Did he secretly tell you his name before he returned to Earth?!

When Kang De heard this strange name, he could not help but roll his eyes. His obedient son suddenly gave him a strange name one day. No old father would be happy, okay?

“He’s doing homework in the dark room.”

Kang De snorted, “A child lacks the ability to distinguish right from wrong. He lacks the ability to recognize the huge amount of information in the outside world. After reading some random books, he began to mess around… I have to educate him well. I can’t show him some strange books in the future! I’ll find him something to praise his father and promote filial piety first…”

Hong San did not understand and only smiled. “Yes, yes, yes.”

In the white fog world, boxes of firearms piled up. His iron son sat at the side in a daze, and a huge data stream flashed through his eyes. It could be imagined that the processor inside him should be operating at high speed.

A moment later, he slowly spat out a mouthful of saliva and frowned in dissatisfaction.

“There are too few. It’s not enough…”

Horus muttered to himself, “The wireless network in Myanmar is really lousy…”
