Civilization: Beyond Two Worlds

Chapter 556: 556



He was overjoyed.

It was also a forward-looking business.

Hence, Kant and the Dragon Emperor became friends.

The small round table that was in the way was pushed to the side, and so was Lily, who was in the way. The people’s nuclear weapon and the Dragon Emperor were very intimate.

The Dragon Emperor suddenly burst into laughter and sighed.

” Brother,” Kant asked,” what do you mean?”

“Brother.” The Dragon Emperor replied,” I’m both happy and sad.”

“Why are you happy and sad?”

The Dragon Emperor patted Kant’s shoulder and sighed.

“I don’t know what’s going on with you, but it’s not easy for me! You’re a bunch of arrogant idiots in the clan. You’re the number one dragon in the world. Your mother’s elf is already riding on your face, yet you still have the face to be the number one dragon in the world.”

” Arrogant, conservative, or as stupid as a pig, saying ‘this doesn’t conform to the ancient law’. If your mother’s ancient law worked, I would still be eating buffets all over the continent!”

Kant nodded.” Yes. We have to change the way we delay everyone’s earning and eating!”

” Right? See, you understand this logic. Why don’t you tell me? I wish I had met you earlier.”

The Dragon Emperor sighed heavily.” You don’t know. In order to bypass those old elders, I started a company, I thought of ways, I expanded my business, I planned training, I formulated the process. It was all done by me alone. In the beginning, I even had to f * cking transform into a female dragon to discuss business!”

“No one in the clan can understand what I’m trying to do. Let’s not talk about anything else, just the household registration. You know the benefits of it, right? None of the dragons understood. In order to register these dragons, I spent a lot of effort. It took them twenty years to come back to their senses and say that Your Majesty is wise. F * ck me…”

Kant patted his elder brother on the shoulder.” We’re in different realms. Let’s not stoop to the same level as idiots.”

“Why don’t you guys say that it’s hard to find a soulmate?” The Dragon Emperor sighed and then smiled.” So, after meeting me today, you understand me! Happy! I’m very happy!”

Kant nodded.” Yes, we all do. We, Aurora, say that it’s lonely at the top! We, the wise people and wise dragons who do practical things, are destined to not be understood!”

“Brother, I’m so happy to talk to you.”

“Do you know why? Because our hearts are clean!”

“Yes, we don’t have ourselves in our hearts!”

“Only money!”

“Yes!”

The two of them high-fived each other again. Lily was already hiding in a corner, her eyes full of disgust.

“Brother.” Kant laughed for a while before he said,” I understand what happiness means. But what does sadness mean? Help me translate.”

“This, it’s not easy to say.”

“No, no, no. Brother’s sadness is my sadness. My sadness. I have to resolve it.”

The Dragon Emperor put his arm around Kant’s shoulder and wiped away his bitter tears.” You’re so clever and clever. I’m afraid I won’t be able to take advantage of you when we do business in the future.”

Kant’s eyes flickered, and the corners of his lips curled up.

He was here.

“Hey!”

He shook his head.

“I know what it is. It’s simple. Good brother, just say it! If someone else wants to take advantage of me, I’ll give him my home! But you hit it off with me! Others can’t take advantage of my younger brother, but you can!”

Kant took out a tablet computer from his bag. It was a cheap, domestically produced computer. Horus had locked down all of its programming systems, so it could only play a fixed number of videos.

Then, he demonstrated it to the Dragon Emperor.

How to start, how to play, how to pause, how to replay.

In the image, the distorted dragon roared and roared. The dying dragon accused Tris of betrayal, and the green dragon corrupted and killed its companions. All kinds of crimes were too numerous to be recorded.

Kant then pushed the tablet toward the Dragon Emperor. I hope that Brother can use this to cleanse the government and the opposition, reorganize the court, and obtain complete power!”

The Dragon Emperor was touched. He held Kant’s hand and said,” The more you give, the more you show affection!”

“This righteousness is stronger than gold!” Kant exclaimed.

After thanking him, the Dragon Emperor picked up the tablet on the table. His dragon eyes constricted and a bright light flashed. He immediately said in surprise,” Brother, good craftsmanship. So amazing.”

Kant smiled modestly.” That’s easy to say. Nine generations of only one heir. I’ll pass on my skills to my sons and not to my daughters. I’ll just make a living.”

The eyes of the Dragon Emperor flashed.

He was silent for a moment. Then, he lowered his voice and pressed on the black screen.” Then, can this thing play anything else besides these videos?”

“Yes!” Kant explained seriously. If they could film it, they could broadcast it! Anything is fine!”

“Good craftsmanship!” The Dragon Emperor praised,” Then are you selling this thing?”

Kant waved his hand.” I like it. I’ll give you a box!”

” Hey, hey, hey, no way. It’s enough for brothers to take advantage of each other once. It’s not right to take advantage of each other more than once.” The Dragon Emperor shook his head repeatedly.” I don’t want it. I want to buy it. I’ll sell it after I buy it, or sell it together.”

Kant clapped. This was a good idea! I’ve long heard that your company is doing well and that your business covers the entire continent. There are nobles, generals, and warlocks. There’s no one you don’t know! With you around, I don’t have to worry about selling!”

“You sound like you have a lot of stuff, Brother,” the Dragon Emperor chuckled.

Kant blinked.” You don’t have to worry about that, brother. But I can guarantee that there won’t be many of them on the market.”

“What if I want it to be more?” the Dragon Lord stared at him.

Kant’s expression changed.” That’ll be a lot,” he answered.” And it’ll be cheap.”

The Dragon Emperor shook his head.” No, it can’t be all cheap. Can the things used by the king be the same price as the ones used by the peasants?” Disrupting the order of seniority and the difference between the upper and lower levels.”

Kant nodded.” Yes, you’re right. I was wrong.”

“Then, little brother, if I want it to be more, it can be more. What if I want it to be bigger?”

“It can be big!”

Kant pointed into the distance.” It can be hung on the wall of the City Hall over there. You can see it from here too!”

“Good!” The Dragon Emperor clapped.” I think that Mr. Han Zezheng must want his family’s Aurora furniture screen porcelain to appear on the wall of the City Hall! Many merchants from other places must also want to do the same!”

“Yes! Big Brother is brilliant!”

“Then, what if I want it to be small?”

“It can be small! It’s so small that I can hide under the blanket and hold it in my palm!”

“You can hold it with one hand?”

“I can hold it with one hand!”

” You can look at it when you walk, when you’re in the car, before you go to bed, at the dining table, anywhere?”

“Yes, I can see it anywhere.”

“Good stuff!” The Dragon Emperor slapped the table and said,” Then there’s still one more question!”

“What is it?”

“This thing!” Dragon Emperor picked up the tablet computer and said,” It can be big or small. If it can see things, I’ll sell it to a person. This person can see the things inside. The question is, can I let this person see what I want him to see anytime and anywhere? New things?”

Kant raised his eyebrows.

“Theoretically, yes.” The Dragon Emperor’s tone became more serious.” What about the reality?”

“Actually,”

” I need time,” Kant repeated.” I need things. I need brains.”

” How much time? What is it? Whose brain is it?”

” I have flexible time, materials, resources, and my brain.”

“Your brain?

“Yes, my brain.” Kant said,” A smart brain. A brain full of wonderful ideas. The most valuable, sensitive, and delicate brain in the world. Only my brain can turn theory into reality. Only then can the person who buys this thing see the new things we want him to see anytime, anywhere.”

“I understand.”

“Then what does your brain need to turn theory into reality faster?”asked the Dragon Emperor.

” My brain is delicate and sensitive. It can’t be frightened at all. It’s like the most beautiful flower in a greenhouse. A little wind and rain can make it tremble. It’s exhausted for too many things. The bullying of outsiders, the betrayal of the internal, the heavy responsibility of the future, the burden of the past…”

” It’s sad and unhappy about this,” Kant said emotionally.” It’s difficult.”

” Then what makes it not sad, happy, and simple?”

“Very easy.” Kant snapped his fingers.” Safety, money, and the most steadfast arm of an ally.”

“Hey, what a coincidence. What you said…” The Dragon Emperor smiled.” The Dragon Clan has them all.”

Kant nodded.” That’s right. You guys are indeed very capable. However, the elves also have these things.”

“Do you really expect the elves to help you?” The Dragon Emperor asked calmly. The Phoenix King may love you, but there is great resistance within the elves. Don’t forget that you killed so many elf armies and defeated them twice.”

” But I’ve also killed many dragons,” Kant said.

“No, you didn’t.” The Dragon Emperor shook his head.

“Really?”

“Yes, I really don’t.”

“Did I remember wrongly?”

“Yes, you remembered wrongly. They all died of work-related injuries.”

Kant nodded, touched.” I see. So I didn’t kill anyone.”

” Yes, brother,” the Dragon Emperor said gently.” You’re sensitive, tender, and kind. You can’t stand blood.”

“But then again…” Kant said,” Big brother said that if the elves can’t help me, can the dragons?”

” For the sake of your delicate, sensitive, and cute little brain,” the Dragon Emperor said kindly.” Tell me, what do you want?”

” I want to be an amazing lord!” Kant revealed a look of anticipation and immaturity.

The Dragon Emperor turned to Lily.” I can’t promise you this for her. I can’t promise you myself.”

“Old thing, are you planning to skip eating, drinking, sleeping, and going to the toilet in the future?”

“Brother, what are you thinking?”

” Do I look like I need women?” Kant asked proudly.

The Dragon Emperor said with a kind expression,” It doesn’t seem like it. I think you must be the saint among flowers, the second generation of the saint of love.”

“That’s right. When I said that I want to become an amazing Lord, that’s not what I meant.”

“What does that mean?”

” What I’m saying is that I want to become the great lord of this city, this country, and even this continent. The nine-storied platform starts from the earth, so I’ll start from this city.”

“Oh?” The Dragon Emperor said,” Brother, do you want to become an amazing lord in this city? Look at this ship and those people. If you say one thing, these people won’t dare to say another…”

“That’s different. This is just the city’s great villains.”

“Then what do you mean by ‘great lord’?”

” What an amazing lord. He’s the most powerful person in this city.”

“If you want power, you have to ask your father-in-law.”

” No, power isn’t something that can be obtained. It’s something that can be obtained. The power you speak of doesn’t count.”

“Then what power do you want?”

Kant pointed at the coastline, the pier, and the entire city.” Look at this city. It used to be the pearl of the West Ocean, the hub of shipping, and a thousand sails. Tell me, what was the most fascinating thing that happened in this city during the most prosperous era?”

“Business,” the Dragon Emperor replied.

“Yes, business.”

Kant snapped his fingers.” Business is divided into black and white, legal and illegal, monopolistic and competitive, low-profit but high-turnover and IQ tax-collecting.”

” Trading is blood, vitality, and soul.”

“Then, my good brother, in such a dream city where money flows, when millions of people compete, kill, devour, and go crazy for business and money, if someone can completely decide which of the countless transactions can make money and which of the people can make more money, what kind of person would he be?”

” Then he’s the most powerful person in this city,” the Dragon Emperor replied resolutely.” The governor, the king, the emperor, and even the gods are not as powerful as him.”

“He is also the most amazing lord in this city.” Kant said,” I’ve had a dream since I was young. I dreamed of becoming such a person.”

“I understand.”

“You really understand?”

” Yes.” The Dragon Emperor nodded. His expression was solemn and serious.” I understand. You want to be the most amazing person in Distant Harbor, Goethe, and even this continent.”

” One of them.” Kant smiled innocently.

“I like one.” The Dragon Emperor laughed.

Kant nodded as well.” I like it too. We have to be social.”

“It’s the same as being a dragon.” The Dragon Emperor stretched out his hand.

The two of them shook hands.

Kant smiled.” Then, my good brother, I want to become the most amazing person in this city. Are you willing to help me achieve my wish step by step?”

“One more step?” The Dragon Emperor also laughed.

Kant nodded.” That’s right. It’s not an easy task. I want to become the most powerful person in this dream city. The first step is to make it a dream.”

“Then how do we make it dreamy?”

“I have to make other places not dreamy.”

“Where?”

“Broken Islands.”

“Hiss…”

The Dragon Emperor thought for a moment and said,” Little brother, look at you. You didn’t even blink and took out so many good things. Look at this ship. How big and good it is. Also, the things you took out in Lucerne were the ones that my dragon saw by chance before he died from an industrial injury…” Do you still need my help?”

Kant waved his hand.” Hey, it’s just a bluff. It’s not worth mentioning. Brother, look at that ship. You saw it and heard about it. Now that you’re looking at it, are you afraid?”

“I’m not afraid.” The Dragon Emperor narrowed his eyes at Fu.

“Why not?”

“Because…” The Dragon King replied,” I think I can punch a hole in its body with one punch.”

“Be more confident, remove the ‘seems’ part.” Kant clapped and said,” Brother, you can tell that this is an alchemy weapon. It’s really fierce, but it’s really brittle.”

” Yes.” The Dragon Emperor nodded.” It’s like an assassin. Stabbing someone is very painful. One punch and you’ll die.”

“Yes, one punch and you’ll die.”

” But dragons are different,” Kant said.” Dragons are tall and hard. Big Brother, did you hear what those lackeys said about last night? I think I have some ideas.”

“What idea?”

“Then let me ask first. Big brother, do dragons use weapons?”

“No need.”

“Why not?”

” Because the dragon’s body is the best weapon. Our roars, claws, teeth, physique, and magic are the strongest weapons.”

“No, you’re wrong.”

“What did I do wrong?”

Kant pointed at the guards in front of the manor.” Look at him. He uses a sword. He can kill his enemies with a sword. I saw him last night. He killed five people with a sword! With this sword, he can be unstoppable and his combat strength will increase greatly. Then, will the dragon need his sword?”

“No need.”

” That’s right, there’s no need for that. A dragon’s claw is more powerful than a sword, so it doesn’t use a sword. This person can make a child cry with a punch, but he can’t kill a fully armed enemy with a sword. That’s why he needs a sword. A sword can make his attack more powerful, but the dragon doesn’t use it. The reason why he doesn’t use it is not that the sword is useless, but that the sword is not enough!”

“What are you trying to say?”The Dragon Emperor asked thoughtfully.

“I want to say that I can forge swords!” Kant said,” My alchemical weapon is tough and fragile. Your dragon is tough and durable. My sword and your dragon can do it!”

The Dragon Emperor touched his chin.

Kant said enthusiastically,” Of course. I forge swords, and you produce dragons. Your dragons and my swords will be more competitive in the international market. You need swords, and I need dragons. This is a win-win situation!”

“Then when can I see my dragon holding your sword?” asked the good brother.

Kant’s smile was still as innocent as ever.” Of course, it’s when I enjoy the slightly sweet sea breeze of the Broken Archipelago. It makes my delicate, sensitive, and cute little brain feel extremely happy.”

“I understand now.”

“Use my dragon and sell your sword to obtain safety, money, and allies. Make yourself an amazing big shot in this city and even this country…” The Dragon Emperor nodded.

Kant nodded like a chicken pecking at rice. His eyes were as clear as a spring.

“Then there’s something I don’t understand…”

“Please speak.”

The Dragon Emperor pointed at the municipal square in the distance. There seemed to be cheers coming from there.

“What does all this have to do with these lowly peasants?”

“Is it okay?”

“I don’t think it’s a problem.” The Dragon Emperor said,” If you want to become a great figure, as long as you say it, these nobles will be your dogs and agree to all your conditions. But you didn’t. You killed people, you hooked them, and you cared about those nobodies instead…Why?”

” There’s power hidden in their bodies,” Kant answered.” I’m going to release them.”

” Use the kindest and most sympathetic attitude to release it.” The Dragon Emperor asked,” Why? Do you hate nobles? You sympathize with them? Do you think nobles shouldn’t live so well?”

Kant stood in front of the balcony railing and was silent for a moment.

” This isn’t a question of whether the nobles are living well or not.”

“It’s a question of why those people should live so badly,” he replied.

The Dragon Emperor was surprised.

“These people won’t understand your thoughts,” he said after a moment.

“I don’t have any extravagant requests. I have my own goals.”

“These people might forget you after they live a good life.”

“It doesn’t matter. As long as I do my job, it’s fine.”

“They might even harm you instead.”

“I have a knife. I will kill those idiots.”

The Dragon Emperor laughed loudly.

“Interesting, interesting.” He said,” Although I don’t understand, it’s a rare good thing that the Fire Stealer has compassion for all living beings. Kant, you’re not bad.”

“You’ve let go of your killing intent?” Kant raised an eyebrow.

“What are you talking about?”

“Disarmed?”

“Nothing.”

“Then shall we have a pleasant cooperation?”

” I was happy before and after I saw your cute little head give me the sword and the thing.”

The two of them shook hands formally and then hugged.

” Brother!” Kant patted the Dragon Emperor’s back.

“Brother, what’s wrong?”

“Is this matter settled?”

” Yes, it’s settled. Why? Is your little brain feeling better?”

” Yes, it feels good. Because I feel refreshed, I even remember some small details.”

Kant took out two power banks from his bag and said apologetically,” Brother, I forgot to tell you. Although those things are good, they’re like magic crystals. They consume a lot of energy. You can use these two to replace them. I’ll teach you how to use them. They’re all used up, so you’ll have to come back to me to charge them…”

The Dragon Emperor was stunned at first, and then his expression became very interesting.

“You motherf * cker…” he cursed.

“F * ck!” he cursed before laughing out loud.

He tapped Kant’s chest and picked up the tablet on the table.

“Leaving just like that? Aren’t you going to eat the hotpot for lunch?”

“I’m not eating anymore. Let’s go back to Ganlong.”

“Keep in touch.”

“I have to come often.”

The Dragon Emperor looked at Lily one last time, and Long Niang made a face at him.

The king wanted to say something, but in the end, he only smiled.

Then, he floated away.

“I couldn’t tell.” After the Dragon Emperor left, Lily came to his side and said coldly,” Sinister and cunning.”

At this moment, the cheers in the distance grew louder and louder.

“What’s wrong?”asked Long Niang in surprise.

” Let’s begin the beheading,” Kant said nonchalantly as he leaned against the railing.

“Then why are they cheering?” Lily was puzzled.” Did they give you money?”

” No, as long as it’s beheading, they will cheer.” Kant said calmly,” No matter who the other party is, no matter what crime he committed, they will cheer.”

“Tsk.”

“It’s very normal…But everything will be different.”

After the Dragon Emperor left, he and Lily stood on the balcony and looked into the distance side by side.

The execution began there, and the nobles wailed as they died. The excited citizens recovered from their fear and confusion. They raised their arms and shouted. They did not understand Han Zezheng’s long speech, but they understood blood and death.

The sky was clear, and the waves were surging. In the port outside the barbaric execution, quaint city, and fanatical people, the Horizon frigate floated in the waves, its silver hull reflecting dazzling light.

Kant picked up the teacup on the table and used tea as a substitute for wine.

To the ignorance and madness that was about to be destroyed.

[PS 1: Upgraded!] Six thousand words! In one go!

P.S. 2: This chapter is written in a style that I like. It covers the game between Kant and the Dragon Emperor, the confrontation, the bargaining, the exchange of interests, the elimination of wariness, the probing, and so on. Some are written in a shallow manner, while others are hidden in depth. You can read and understand them in the post. I think this kind of communication between readers and authors is quite interesting.
