280 Ambush Plan
For more than a year on the Holy Seal Islands, he had been isolated from the world and lonely and afraid. Although he had enough food and clothing, in addition to material needs, modern people also had mental needs and social needs.
Although those animals could not speak, they were all intelligent and made up for this need.
When he first came to the other world, Kang De was almost crazy. He was nervous, afraid, and hysterical. Earth was empty and isolated from the outside world. Looking at the Holy Seal Islands, they were unfamiliar and unknown.
The ecosystem here was extremely prosperous. The plants were lush, the forest was deep, and the wild scenery of the island did not mean beauty and nature in Kang De’s eyes. Instead, it meant ferocious predators, unknown poisonous insects, and potentially fatal plants… It was dangerous and terrifying. He had always kept a distance.
The first house was on the tallest and steepest hill. It was surrounded by various iron, stone, and shopping carts. He set up all kinds of traps and even dug a moat that was filled with gasoline. He did not even plan to leave the door open and made up his mind not to go out.
Kang De even considered setting fire to the entire island. Although it was a little ugly, it did not matter. He would rather the island be bare and dark than have any terrifying neighbors living beside him.
Later on, when he was forced to go out, he encountered the gorilla. The other party was surrounded and entangled by a few black beasts. Kang De mustered his courage to save her life. Being able to encounter familiar primates in the other world made him lower his guard a little because the gorilla’s intelligence was really a little powerful. It even made him experience the feeling of communication that he had not felt for a long time. The other party could understand his meaning and respond.
She took care of the gorilla for a few days until her injuries healed and the man and gorilla became friends.
The gorilla enjoyed the many snacks on Earth, and she had also taught it the magical use of the Kang De black beast crystal.
One morning, the gorilla left without saying goodbye. Kang De searched in vain and was very sad, but his sadness only lasted for half a day because the gorilla quickly returned.
She also brought an entire circus.
The grand occasion at that time was simply indescribable.
Kang De could not forget the shock and impact at that time.
Flying in the sky, running on the ground, ferocious, harmless, cute, pretending to be ferocious, pretending to be harmless, pretending to be cute… The birds continuously fell from the sky. The beasts slowly walked out of the vegetation and forest. Their roars, breathing, and grunts sounded incessantly. The black dot on the horizon approached, and the white line on the sea streaked across. There were still animals crossing the sea from other islands with their bodies.
These familiar and unfamiliar animals surrounded it in layers. Pairs of large and small eyes stared at him deeply. He also looked around and felt that those eyes revealed the light of intelligence, as if they were melancholic, sighing, or nostalgic.
Then, these animals roared at the sky at the same time.
At that time, Kang De was still intimately raised by the gorilla and passively endured this strong crowd and praise in unison. Such a ritual made him almost think that he was Simba.
—Or a super SSS rare ingredient.
The kind that only happened once in a thousand years.
Later on, after interacting and communicating for many years, he felt more and more that these magical animals were filled with mystery. Not only were their combat strength off the charts, their habits were also very strange. Their intelligence was extremely high, and they were smart and even cunning.
The strangest thing was that they were alone and different. For example, there was only one of each animal on the entire island… This was too strange.
He had once asked indirectly or directly, and the animals pretended to be stupid. In any case, they did not understand. He had also made many guesses, but he could not confirm them because there were no traces of civilization on the island.
It was not until the elves went to the island and war broke out that the animals led by the kangaroo displayed terrifying combat strength and experience and wisdom that were definitely not something animals could have. This deepened his suspicion.
At that time, he had asked Tina and Knight Cleveland, but he had found nothing. Later on… he could not care less.
Until he encountered the gorilla again.
The other party had already become a human and was so strong.
Moreover, she still maintained her past intimacy with Kang De—or even closer.
Although Kang De did not say it, he was thinking academically that many of those animals were female. Since the gorilla could transform and become so busty, then…
He thought about this for a long time, or rather, he thought about it as soon as he was free. After thinking about it, he would even laugh.
However, other than such a question, he was also curious about the background of the magical animals. Unfortunately, when he asked the gorilla, she knew nothing.
According to her, she had been like that since she could remember. She did not have any memories before the previous gorilla form. At that time, she was still young and had grown up in the kangaroo’s pouch. Those animals had raised her.
When she could not eat anything when she was young, everyone would catch a beast in its breastfeeding period to feed her. She had drunk all kinds of milk—in any case, it was not delicious.
Although the gorilla’s memory was blank, this could also explain some problems indirectly. There was no gorilla family on the entire island. Where did the gorilla come from?
The magical animals were in different categories, but they could gather together and live in peace. Occasionally, they would fight and argue, but it was only entertainment. It was very strange to raise the gorilla together.
The only possibility was that the gorilla was younger than the magical animals. If he even further guessed—did the gorilla turn into an animal in its infant or young state?
Or she had been turned into an animal…
With this in mind, Kang De looked at the gorilla. The other party was eating happily with a bag of old Beijing instant noodles. The bag was specially prepared. There were five to six packets of instant noodles stuffed in it. She crushed them and sprinkled them with seasoning. This was the gorilla’s favorite. Ever since the invention of instant noodles, this evil eating method had appeared.
Seeing Kang De look over, her cheeks puffed up and she revealed a silly and cute smile, like a hamster.
She did not care where she came from or why she had become a gorilla or returned. Now was the happiest moment for her.
There was Kang De and endless delicious food beside him.
However, Kang De still cared.
Especially after hearing what Tagris said, he made a connection.
According to the elves, there was a group of mysterious organizations controlling the operation of this world behind the scenes and even deliberately suppressing the development of this world. There were many specific actions.
Supporting ambitious people, creating conflicts between countries, assassinating great scholars, stopping the appearance of a huge invention, creating turmoil through financial methods, starting a war, and so on…
Such conspiracy theories were very popular on Earth and had fed countless creative writers, creating many popular rumors in the world. Kang De had really seen many such rumors since he was young.
However, now, in the other world, an elf-ruling class standing at the top of the world told him that there was really a force controlling the situation of the world and exerting an influence filled with selfish desires on everything.
Therefore, he thought of the magical animals trapped on the Holy Seal Islands.
The curtain legend of the Holy Seal Islands, the sigh and nostalgia in the animals’ eyes when they looked at him, the mysterious Fire Thief Altar, all kinds of mysteries, and the past that had disappeared into history.
Tagris said that those “masterminds” would attack some living beings who would make a huge difference to the world because they wanted to always enjoy the delicious cake alone.
If the parrot and the others were related to this…
At this moment, Kang De even wanted to ask Tagris about the Holy Seal Islands. He believed that if there was anyone in the world who could know that past the most completely and clearly, the other party must be one of them.
However, in the next moment, he forcefully stopped this thought.
Regardless of whether Tagris was telling the truth or not, he could not casually reveal the matter of the Holy Seal Islands. The other party was a top figure of the Twilight Dynasty and even the entire world. If he leaked Kang De’s background and the matter of the Holy Seal Islands, even if it was just a trace, it would alert the other party.
This meant that as long as Tagris said a few words, an elf fleet would go straight to the Holy Seal Islands and brazenly land and occupy the islands, clashing with the animals and causing unnecessary casualties and trouble.
In other words, he did not trust this elf yet.
He would not let the parrot and the others fall into possible danger.
As soon as this thought appeared, his gaze changed. Tagris’ intuition was quite shocking. He looked at Kang De and the tears he had just put away began to flow again, “Wow, you’re actually wary of me!”
After all, Kang De was not thick-skinned enough. He was immediately exposed and felt a little awkward. He took out another tissue and wiped it. As the elf arched his face for him to wipe, he cried even harder.
The gorilla was unhappy to see this. “Shame, shame! How shameless!”
“It’s none of your business!” Tagris whimpered. “I haven’t cried in 160 years! Only when I was young! When I cried! Father would wipe my tears and coax me like this! In the end, when I cried again, the other elves were either scared to death or scolded me with a straight face. They didn’t coax me! They all deserve to die!”
—D*mn, how old are you this year?
Kang De wisely did not ask this question.
He could only continue, “They’re all bad. Come, let me coax you. Just cry…”
The elf cried even louder, “You’re clearly a human, so why do you speak like my father? Do you want to take advantage of me? You clearly said that you wanted to be my… my brother-in-law. Why do you want to be my father now?”
Kang De was very experienced in dealing with such drunkards who joked around. He comforted them, “It’s fine, it’s fine. It’s not your father who can coax you. Your brother-in-law can also…”
Tagris shouted, “I don’t have a sister!”
Kang De nodded and said, “Yes, yes, yes. You’re right.”
The elf cursed at Kang De again, “You bad human!”
Kang De still nodded. “Yes, yes, yes.”
“You’ve been thinking of bullying me from the beginning! Teasing me! Guarding against me! Toying with me!”
Tagris raised his small fist to punch Kang De’s chest. At the very least, this guy hesitated for a moment and knew his limits. He resentfully stopped, so he was even more unhappy, “I specially came here and was so sincere. I didn’t leave after being bullied and teased by you and endured the humiliation to stay. It was all for you! You still don’t appreciate it!”
He shouted, “Just turn around and leave. I’ll let you be beaten to death!”
Kang De’s expression changed slightly as he pondered for a moment and said, “The group of guys who interfered with the world you mentioned is coming for me?”
“Nonsense!” Tagris said angrily, “The reason why a forbidden spell is a forbidden spell is because those guys are adding fuel to the fire. You caused such a huge commotion and destroyed five armies in one go. Moreover, there are no elemental fluctuations at all. If there were, they would have monitored you on the spot and killed you in minutes!”
Kang De pondered for a moment. In other words, the group of people the elves spoke of covered the world with something like radar and could detect the signal of any intercontinental missile. However, the superweapon they fired was a lightning storm. With their warning system, they could not detect it at all. That was what it meant.
He asked, “But now they know?”
“I could have hidden it for longer. After all, they’ve been tired all these years. Their energy seems to have been involved elsewhere.” When he spoke of this, the silly expression on his face gradually disappeared and became murderous. It was unknown where she got her resentment. Perhaps she had a grudge.
The elf’s expression changed again and he said coldly, “However, if someone informs us, it’s a different story.”
“Who is it?”
Tagris glanced at Kang De. “Will you believe me if I say it? Won’t you think that I’m using someone else to kill you? Don’t you still suspect me and not believe me?”
“…”
One moment, she was crying cutely, and the next moment, she was sharp-tongued and spicy.
Kang De threw the tissue in his hand aside. “You’re more real and cute when you cry.”
The elf was silent for a moment. “I’m unwilling to show a trace of weakness and a tear on this topic.”
“I see.”
Kang De did not probe further at this moment. He thought for a moment and said, “I joined the war between Goethe and the elves and helped Goethe defend this city. I killed a large number of your soldiers. Speaking of hatred, it should be irreconcilable. The Twilight Dynasty should want to skin me alive.”
“Now, you said that a mastermind interfering in this world behind the scenes has targeted me and even wants to hurt me. Logically speaking, as an elf, it’s already good enough that you don’t kick me when I’m down. In other words, you actually want to protect me and even specially came over for this…”
He looked at Tagris and said seriously, “I think you must have your own plans and goals for doing this. Even that ridiculously generous peace negotiation condition is one of your plans.”
“Although I ask myself that although my appearance is known to the world, just my beautiful appearance is not enough to make the ruler of Twilight ignore politics, conflict, and blood debt. Therefore, it seems that what a mere Cathayan, Kang De, can catch your eye is that unpredictable, instantaneous, and extremely destructive power, right?”
Kang De rested his elbows on the table and looked across. “Are you going to ask me to deal with that group of people?”
The elf did the same. Although he looked weak and reserved, his eyes reflected the true appearance of his mind. His gaze was cold and dignified as he met Kang De’s gaze.
“Correction, we’re not the ones who paid such conditions to ask you for help. You’re already in this situation. Even if you don’t deal with them, they’ll take the initiative to find you. Your Highness Kang De, you destroyed the five legions in a battle and shocked the world, causing the rulers of the various countries to be unable to sleep and eat in peace. However, those guys must be the most uncomfortable.”
“You’re provoking them. You’ll make them feel dangerous and threatening.”
“The battle of Valentine is only the beginning…” The elf’s eyes were as clear as a spring as if he had seen through Kang De, “That’s not all you can do, right?”
Not long ago, one was crying and the other was coaxing. The warm atmosphere was filled with concern for the mentally disabled. Now, they looked at each other coldly and secretly fought for the lead in the conversation.
The gorilla chewed on her instant noodles and looked over in boredom as if it was looking at two debaters.
“There are a few questions.”
Kang De raised his finger.
Tagris nodded. “Tell me.”
“Firstly.” Kang De took away his arm, raised his body, and crossed his legs. “How can I prove that you’re telling the truth? It’s very important. You have to take evidence before I believe you.”
“I’m staying here as evidence. Counting the days, in the next two days, the observers they’re guarding the continent will rush over and capture or kill you.”
At this point, there was a trace of pride in his tone, “But I’m here! They’re the ones who will die!”
Kang De thought for a moment. “I want them alive.”
“Sure, but you need this woman’s help,” Tagris said. “It’s harder to capture them alive than directly hack them to death, but you have to confirm it yourself, right?”
That was not all.
The power of the Fire Thief had not been used for a long time.
He might not be able to pry out a confession by torture, and he could not believe all the elves’ words. However, when the extraction superpower was used on living beings, it went straight to the source and searched their souls. The information obtained from it could not be wrong.
Before confirming it, it was too far to say anything else.
This was f*cking amazing. The elves were not done fighting. Where did this enemy come from?
Kang De cursed in his mind, then asked, “If we kill this batch, the next batch will come, right?”
“It won’t be that fast, but it won’t be very slow. We should be able to buy some time… No one can predict what will happen in the future.” Tagris glanced at Kang De. “Just like your appearance.”
Kang De pondered.
After a while, the elf said, “You’re really suspicious… I can understand. However, what I want to say is that I originally didn’t have to tell you this news now. The effect will be better when they kill their way to the door and we save you. I can even make you owe me a favor… However, I still said it now.”
“Because I think this is more sincere.”
He looked at Kang De and stretched out his hand. “You might still have doubts now. There are many things I can’t tell you yet because trust has not been built, but trust can be built. We can start now. Let’s join forces, cooperate, and stand side by side.”
“Ambush them, defeat them, and capture them.”
“Let’s make a plan.”
