Civilization: Beyond Two Worlds Chapter 425 – 425 Homecoming

425 Homecoming

“Good news, bad news.”

In the afternoon, Kang De returned to the white fog world with a large bag.

All kinds of metal ingots, magic stones, and enchanted alloys were placed in front of Horus. This was the gain of a four-hour meeting and discussion. From the chief of the palace to the academy masters, and even the alchemists who worked in civil society, the Grand Duke gathered them as Kang De's consultants and tools.

Due to his lack of understanding of the materials of the other world, Horus's list of material needs did not specify specific materials. Instead, it listed the physical requirements and let the people of the other world discuss which materials met.

Fire-resistant, high-expansion, strong wear resistance, and good conductivity… The more precise the structure was, the stronger the support of materials, and the more fragile the interior was. The problem Horus faced now was that the sharpness of the spear was far greater than the strength of the shield. It wanted to make up for this shortcoming.

The Transformer sat down in front of Kang De and stretched out his mechanical hand to pick up an alloy ingot. “Bad news?”

Kang De replied, “The bad news is that there's insufficient production capacity. Your needs list includes a large number of gears, blades, bearings, levers, bearings, and more gadgets that I can't understand. The larger armor plate and hydraulic structure are easy to deal with, but the processing of high-quality parts can kill 90% of the alchemists at once. Only a small number of masters and metallurgical experts can deal with it.”

“With the small workshop-like production mode of the alchemy workshop in the other world, they won't be able to complete all the parts even if they use a year—this is only forging, not counting the enchantment part.”

The stronger the structure, the more precise the internal structure was. Specifically, there were strict requirements for the angle, width, and core of a small leaf part.

To the craftsmen of the other world, this was simply a despairing workload.

Horus slowly nodded. “What's the good news?”

Kang De continued, “The good news is that compared to modern industrial technology, the alchemy field of the other world is also unique. The use of supernatural powers and mental strength makes the best alchemists have level 12 clamp-like technology. It's a little exaggerated to say that it's a human photolithography machine… but it's also very powerful.”

He opened the box placed at the side. There was a sweeping exchange item inside. It was a crazy three-story structure made of a plastic processing alloy called the Moon Spirit. During the heating process, it completed the diffusion welding at the same time. The truss structure between the two layers of alloy skin ensured strength… He had personally seen the alchemist from St. Covelo University complete this process on the spot.

Heating up the flames, his mental strength separated the impurities and shaped them with his telekinesis. The complicated structural diagram had already been memorized and reproduced through the guidance of his mental strength.

Horus picked up the box and revealed a surprised expression.

Kang De smiled and said, “How is it? Impressive, right?”

The Transformer nodded and said, “Yes, it's much stronger than Father.”

“…”

Had this guy reached the rebellious stage? This was too fast!

Kang De said angrily, “How many years have the masters studied it? I've only debuted for a few months! Moreover, no matter how powerful a superior is, he still has to be my tool, right?”

Horus stopped while he was ahead and nodded in agreement.

It had learned some social techniques on the Internet and was experimenting with them on its father. The first point of human interaction was propriety. Some things could be said, but they could not be said. It had to test them bit by bit. It could advance three steps and retreat two steps. This was called a nibble.

For example, it could complain about its father, but that was the end. After its father retorted, it should rationally shut up and even flatter him a few times to agree.

He could not say things like “the current father is more like my tool”.

It wisely changed the topic, “However, no matter how powerful the master is, the production capacity is not enough and can't complete such a workload in a short period of time… However, Father must have a way to resolve it. In fact, the difference between hard work and labor is here. The former will always have the thought and method to resolve the problem—am I right?”

As expected, Kang De's anger turned to joy.

—If I was a woman, Princess Tina would have nothing to do with me. The gorilla is indeed an idiot.

This thought flashed through Horus's mind.

He continued to coax, “Then Father, do you have a solution?”

Kang De raised two fingers.

“There are three plans. Division of labor, division of labor, and more division of labor.”

He pushed the slate that Horus had written that day over and pointed at it. “The materials and parts you need are categorized according to the processing precision and strength of the materials. The production capacity of the alchemists is limited, and good steel is used on the blade. In other words, the structure is precise and the physical requirements are extremely high. They're listed in a separate file and made by the alchemists. The second file is a huge number, but the precision and physical requirements are relatively low.”

At this point, Kang De paused and bent a finger. “It's best if it's suitable for Earth's craftsmanship and materials science. It's even better to immediately find a substitute on Earth.”

Horus pondered. The torrent of information surged through the processor. After a while, its eyes shot out a red light and projected on the ground, categorizing it. “My previous self was born from a Hummer vehicle. There were more car parts, and later they were added to the fighter plane. Many parts can be found on Earth's cars, armored vehicles, and fighter planes, but some involve core components, some need to be optimized, and some have to be enchanted.”

“There are also some that are not suitable to be found in cars. After all, they're civilian-grade cars, and they've already been worn and consumed for a long time… It's best if they're brand new and have higher requirements for materials. The demand for this part of the parts is the greatest. It's best to produce them with standard industrial machines.”

Kang De smiled when he heard this.

He said, “This is not a problem.”

“Father has a way?”

“Yes, there's a way.” The smile on Kang De's face widened, “Didn't I tell you? Xiaoman's father, Uncle Wang, is a car manufacturing giant in this province.”

“No,” Horus said indifferently. “Just as you didn't tell me, Father, what's with the extra wedding ring on your hands overnight?”

“…”

D*mn.

Before Kang De could speak, his iron son continued, “I suggest you put on gloves or find eight more rings to wear your fingers all over—if you want to see my first mother when you return to Earth.”

Xiaoman's voice and smile appeared in Kang De's mind. For some reason, he felt guilty. He glared at him and said, “Children, don't talk nonsense about adults!”

“Yes.”

No matter what, as a son, he had done his duty to remind him. This was the only thing Horus could do. It changed the topic. “What about enchantment?”

Kang De composed himself and took out another gear from the box.

It shone with the luster of magic power. Half a palm-sized gear was attached with three enchantments, “Sturdy”, “Fast”, and “Fire Control”, to satisfy Horus's strengthening needs.

The alchemical army of the other world also had the puppet domain. Mechanical engineering and structural mechanics had also developed accordingly. They were also using gears and the like. They were not confused about the design requirement submitted by Kang De, but they had enchanted and strengthened it according to their experience—but the problem still existed.

There were really too many parts that needed enchantment. The workload was huge.

“We'll resolve the repetitive project. They're in charge of producing the blueprint and ideas.”

Kang De pinched the gear. In the Fire Thief's vision, the element structure was layered clearly. The profound supernatural power was no longer mysterious. The Phoenix Eye made his observation even clearer.

“Do you remember the plan I told you about before?”

Kang De said, “Copy the element diagram, import it into the drawing software, control the laser engraving machine, and magically modify the engraving drill part. Inject the elements and complete the enchantment…”

“However, the battle did not stop during this period and there was no time to practice this idea. Now that we're facing new challenges, we have to think on the level of a country… It's time to take this step.”

He threw the gear to Horus and stood up. “I'll return to Earth this time and resolve this problem.”

The power of the Fire Thief went straight to the source. It bypassed the complicated and deep enchantment technique and was in place in one go, giving objects supernatural attributes. Since Kang De was from Earth and was familiar with the progress of history, he was simply not Chinese.

—Get lost. I'm going to farm.

Horus said faintly, “Don't forget to bring Wang Xiaoman a gift.”

“—I want you to tell me!”

A furious shout echoed in the white fog space.

“In short, this is the situation.”

After busying himself for the entire afternoon, he handed the detailed division of labor he had discussed with Horus to Goethe.

The processing and enchantment of high-quality core parts were handed to the alchemists in Red Maple City. No matter how powerful Uncle Wang's factory was, it was still in the field of civilian car accessories. Without the corresponding processing equipment, those things could not be made. He could only place his hopes on the superb mental strength of the masters.

As for the materials, after discussion, he handed them to Earth to produce and process parts. He still used Earth's steel and alloy. Firstly, it was the problem of processing equipment. Although the super magic alloy of the other world was better, Earth's equipment might not be able to process it… Moreover, it was an unprecedented new substance. Goethe had too many things to do now, and Kang De was not prepared to deal with his own government.

This would cause wear and tear of parts and lifespan problems. He would make do with the enchantment first. At most, he would produce more and diligently change and maintain it. He would consider continuing to strengthen it in the future.

It was decided.

It was still his previous action pattern. He would return to Earth at night and reverse the time difference. When it was day in the other world, he would return and ensure that he would not disappear for a long time and arouse the suspicion of the enemy.

“I'll leave the matter of covering for me to you.”

At night, Kang De briefly explained the situation. It was too troublesome to explain the matter on Earth. He only said to Tina temporarily, “I'm actually from another world… Just treat it as another plane. I want to return there to find it. I'll tell you the details in the future.”

The first thing Tina thought of was that on the Holy Seal Islands, she had seen the scenes of destruction, war, and extinction on the tablet Kang De had given her.

She was curious about Kang De's secret, but she was not in a hurry to know. This was because the encounter in Glory Sand Town had caused the young princess to kill her romantic dream and become a pragmatist. Kang De's secret was not important. What was important was that he was beside her, safe and happy.

She held Kang De's hand. “Is it dangerous there?”

Earth, Africa, Comoros. Before he came, he had almost been washed to the ground by the joint attack formation of the American Empire and the French Rooster. After the battle of Moroni, he could be considered to have a name among the five hooligans.

Benevolent, malicious, scheming, and hostile. The attention of various countries would fall on him.

His motherland would definitely support him. He was a supernatural person who was born under a red flag. He had the inclination of the emperor and Han Dynasty and a clean family background. How could the country push such a good young man out? Kang De had nothing better to do and went to foreign countries—language, history, culture. Such a sense of identity and belonging was the power of civilization.

However, in contrast, with his motherland, there would be enemies and barbarians who could not stand the good of China.

This time, it might be very lively when he returned.

He said, “A little… but overall, it's still safe.”

Ever since they were reunited, Tina had always been overly worried about him. It was better to comfort her.

Unexpectedly, Tina had something to say no matter what. The princess lowered her eyes, and waves flashed in them. She said in a low voice, “Kang De gave up on a calm and beautiful life and ran around here for Goethe…”

As she spoke, she hugged Kang De's arm and whispered, “Kang De, you've sacrificed so much for us. I don't know how to repay you…”

Kang De comforted the uneasy Tina as usual.

The gorilla watched from the side and hugged Kang De's other arm. She looked at Tina's heartbreakingly beautiful side profile and instinctively felt that Tina was very cunning. This was her plan.

A psychological phenomenon.

A helped B. Then, the increase in favorability between A and B was even greater than the increase in favorability between B and A. If this kindness relationship was consolidated and continued, the favorability between A and B would be even higher.

Tina continuously emphasized the help and kindness Kang De had provided. Not only would it help to consolidate and increase their good impression, but it would also provide reasonable motive support for her many “repayment actions”. This motivation support was not used to convince her, but to convince Kang De.

Gradually, Kang De would be used to this excuse, just like how he was used to various “rewards”.

The strategy against Kang De had long been spread silently.

With this in mind, Tina glanced at the gorilla and held back the smile on her lips.

How could she lose?

She hugged Kang De's arm and touched his hand and the Chang'an Watch on his ring finger. A mysterious power was connected to their fates. She could not help but think that this ancient mental oath could teleport one person to the other. Could it bring her to Kang De's hometown?

There was no hurry, no hurry.

She looked at the gorilla meaningfully. Her intuition told her that this little fool knew many of Kang De's secrets, but that was only the advantage of attacking first. She would catch up soon.

—Let's get all your secrets out tonight. What about the night after Kang De left?

“Then, I'm leaving.”

After being affectionate for a moment and explaining a little, he gave the signal generator to the gorilla and agreed on the time to return and the things to pay attention to. Kang De passed through the dark door under their gazes.

He arrived at the white fog world.

Using this as a springboard.

Return home.
