“Honorable alchemist.”
The most humble and sincere suggestion and plea.
He was very polite.
After saying that, the other party’s attitude could be said to be quite polite.
Kang De slowly inhaled.
A trace of gloominess flashed through his eyes.
However, if attitude and words could explain everything, the trip to Glory Sand would be happy and calm, because Samuel, Hannah, and Lynch’s attitudes were also very polite.
This did not prevent a dirty and ugly soul from hiding under a dignified and noble appearance.
Therefore, to Kang De, the other party’s attitude and words were not important.
Most importantly, the other party had appeared at this place at this ti and stood in front of him.
This ant that his whereabouts had already been noticed by soone with ill intentions.
If the first appeared, there would be a second.
Perhaps this person only wanted to buy a car, but what about the next…
Moreover, the motive of this person was uncertain…
Kang De stepped on the accelerator and moved his fingers on the steering wheel. His gaze swept across the car seat. All kinds of weapons and equipnt were in a state where they could be used at any ti.
His transmigration ability could be imdiately activated to provide him with a temporary shelter in another world. If the situation was extrely urgent, he could even directly return to Earth and use the high ti flow ratio to stay on Earth for a day before returning. In the wilderness, no enemy would wait blankly for a few days because no one knew where Kang De had teleported to.
It was foolproof.
Kang De stepped on the accelerator and the Humr roared like a wild beast.
This was an ultimatum.
“No.”
He turned on the loudspeaker installed in the car and said, “Disappear from my sight imdiately.”
Not to ntion that he had added all kinds of enchantnt modifications to this Humr and that it was operating well in the other world with terrible road conditions, for the ti being, it did not matter if the vehicle containing Earth’s technology and chanical principles could easily be handed over to the otherworlders.
There was actually only one reason for Kang De’s rejection.
—Who has the ti to argue with you now?
His rough and decisive rejection did not make the old butler feel embarrassed.
He only smiled apologetically and bowed again, “It seems that my sudden appearance has caused your dissatisfaction. Please forgive for my offense, Master Alchemist. My master is very sincere and doesn’t have any ill intentions. If your carriage has an extraordinary aning to you, is my little master lucky enough to order your next work? Or an equally exquisite and outstanding work…”
The old butler said sincerely, “My little master has a natural love and fascination for machinery. Any alchemist who has considerable attainnts in the field of chanical engineering will be treated and respected by the Vidal family. If you have any trouble or requests, the Vidal family can resolve it for you…”
He did not finish his sentence.
This was because what replied to him was a low roar like a wild beast. The alchemical chanical product that could drive on its own and stay up all night suddenly surged and activated, colliding with him!
The old butler dodged to the left and passed the Humr. Through the side window, he saw Kang De’s eyes and his gesture—a thumb across his throat.
It was a cold and decisive warning that contained killing intent.
The aning of that gesture was obvious.
—If you appear in front of again, I’ll kill you.
The old butler slled the strange sll of exhaust gas. The Humr had already taken the road. He saw the red light of the taillight, conspicuous and evil in the night.
Then, the old man realized what had happened.
He could not help but feel angry.
He had worked in the Vidal family for many years. Although he was a butler, he was actually already a powerful figure that the family trusted and relied on. Usually, when he welcod and sent people back, even when they t and negotiated, the various people he saw were all polite to him. For example, tonight, he ca with kindness and friendliness. Not only did the other party reject him, he even threatened him with death after saying a few more words…
It had really been a long ti.
However, in the next mont, the old butler suppressed his anger.
He was only a servant and could have his own emotions, but he could not let this affect his mission and his master’s matters.
“Negotiation failed…”
He sighed and muttered, “I didn’t expect him to be so wary…”
The old butler was silent for a mont before turning to leave, “I have to report this…”
His figure quickly disappeared into the night.
What the old butler did not know was that not long after, Kang De’s figure appeared from the darkness and coldly stared at the empty col.
“…I thought the little master he ntioned would co here to check the traces.”
He adjusted the thing on his back.
It was a super explosive gas tank.
The old butler should be glad. If Kang De had agreed to et his little master here, as long as they said sothing they should not have and angered him, then…
Kang De touched his chin and pondered, “I can’t catch up, but if the little master he ntioned has ulterior motives, he’ll most likely advance from here to pursue. If I set a trap and ambush by the roadside…”
He calculated for a mont and finally shook his head to reject this thought.
“It’s a waste of ti. There’s no need. Moreover, the other party is not a friend or foe. I’m not at the point where I don’t hesitate to kill without judgnt. I’m not crazy to this extent.”
“The most important thing now is to leave the Empire’s territory and enter the border of Goethe.”
He turned around with the gas tank and weapon on his back and ran towards the hidden Humr parked not far away. He had only casually used this move just now. So be it if nothing happened.
“If they really have evil intentions, soone will co to find next.”
Kang De got into the car, twisted the key, and started the engine.
This Humr was really not bad. It had been carefully enchanted and strengthened both inside and outside. It was only defensive. From fire control to toughness, its protective performance was extrely powerful. It would be a divine artifact on Earth.
“There’s only one weapon station left…”
Kang De stepped on the accelerator and accelerated away.
“When I’m free, I’ll think of a way to increase my basic combat strength and collect so useful enchanted equipnt. Then…”
He thought happily, “I’ll fly overseas and go to those dangerous war zones to ask the gun lords of Arica for help. In any case, they helped us decades ago. Now, it’s a good ti… They’re probably tired of fighting aliens all day. It’s good for to borrow your equipnt to fight the people of the other world.”
At the sa ti, the travel-worn old butler rushed to a small camp that had been set up.
“Failed?”
A shocked question sounded from the main tent.
The old butler bowed even lower. “I’m very sorry.”
Then, he heard footsteps.
The old butler took a light breath, but he could still sll a faint fragrance. His lowered gaze first saw the brown deer boots, then the round thigh wrapped in pants. The young miss of the Vidal family he served walked up to him.
“—That’s f*cking aweso.”
He heard his little master say this.
Then, there was a series of questions.
“You weren’t arrogant, right? I told you to talk to him properly, right? Where did you go? Did your negotiation fail? Tell from the beginning to the end.”
The old butler bowed and answered.
He told everything to his little master.
In the end, he ca to a conclusion and explained his failure.
“Miss, the other party’s vigilance is beyond expectations. I don’t doubt the authenticity of his last death threat at all, especially his gaze, it’s like…”
The girl from the Vidal family said, “It’s like thinking about how to cut you open with an axe if you beco enemies with him the next ti we et, right?”
“…” The old butler recalled Kang De’s gaze and felt that it was really similar.
—However… Miss, how did you know?
“Are you wondering why I know?”
The girl’s voice was faint, even hiding a trace of resentnt and displeasure.
“Because the last ti I went to see Tina, that girl also put on such an expression in the end. She chuckled when talking about business, money, and serious matters. When we talked about other things, she started to reject people.”
She said, “D*mn, as expected of the lover she chose. This Cathayan’s temper is actually identical to hers. Moreover, he was most likely provoked by the Goode family and beca a fierce man with an explosive hobby. D*mn, why did Tina encounter such an amazing man?”
At this point, it seed to have triggered sothing unhappy. The girl paced a few steps on the spot and scratched her head. Her beautiful silver hair scattered a little.
Her tone was a little crazy. “F*ck, I’m angry just thinking about it. Tina was a stupid b*tch who only knew how to cry. I looked down on her attitude of daydreaming all day. Now, she’s to my liking. I want to be friends with her, but she looks down on . D*mn.”
The girl spat on the ground. “It’s all because of that b*tch Hannah. She betrayed Tina, causing her to not even believe . F*ck, who in the entire Empire doesn’t know that I, Leona Vidal, am the most loyal friend?”
These words beca more and more impudent. The old butler kept his head lowered and pretended not to hear anything.
In any case, Miss was like this… The old master and the young master could not control her.
However, as the butler, he had an obligation to stop his little master at so point and say less shaful words.
Therefore, the old butler said softly, “Miss, what should we do now?”
“How would I know what to do?”
Leona hugged her head and shouted.
“I keep feeling that Tina is walking a tightrope. I want to persuade her but she doesn’t believe .”
“It wasn’t easy to receive information that soone had discovered a very strange four-wheeled alchemical vehicle. I feel that this news is very familiar. It’s very similar to the thing that that ferocious man from Cathay used. Moreover, after careful investigation and judgnt, we’ve basically locked onto the other party’s identity. We’re preparing to contact him to gain his trust and explain the situation. Let him help persuade Tina.”
“I didn’t expect this person’s temper to be the sa as Tina’s. He doesn’t care about us at all.”
She stomped her feet and shouted, “What can I do? Should I directly run over and tell him? I don’t want to face such a dangerous man face to face. If we don’t agree, what if he cuts open with his axe?”
The old butler tried to suggest, “If we’re honest…”
Leona looked at him as if he were a fool.
“Butler, you’re old. Eat sothing good to nourish your brain.”
She said earnestly, “You haven’t said anything. You only want to buy his car and even expressed your kindness. Did he care about you? I think he really suffered badly in the Goode family, so no matter which Empire’s noble it is, they look like enemies now, although he’s indeed right.”
“Look, just saying these harmless words makes him want to kill you.”
“If you run to him and say, Hey, fierce man, I know your na is Kang De. I don’t have any ill intentions towards the person who killed and set fire to people in Glory Sand. I’m here to be friends with you—do you think he’ll smile and shake your hand or cut you open without a word?”
“…”
The butler thought for a mont and felt that the second possibility was more likely.
Leona was about to speak when an urgent voice sounded outside.
“Miss, a secret report!”
The girl opened the urgent letter and looked at it. Her expression changed.
She slapped her head and gritted her teeth. “D*mn, what I was afraid of happened. Alex’s people discovered him!
