190 Egyptian Mythology
Night fell and Valentine lit up with specks of light.
The city had imposed a curfew yesterday. There were no pedestrians on the road, only patrolling soldiers.
Although they had won the battle today, the casualties were extrely tragic. Every family cried. With the intensity of the elves’ siege, the residents of the city also felt it. The taste of fear could destroy their defenses. Moreover, during the battle, the attack magic of the elf mages accidentally blasted into the city, causing many casualties and chaos.
However, this was not the most fatal thing.
!!
Most importantly, the retreat of the Dusk Legion was only temporary. Everyone knew that the elves were an extrely proud race. Once they tasted defeat, they would definitely return it ruthlessly. Today’s victory was only the beginning of the bitter battle tomorrow.
However, this was war. So outcos often did not have to do with whose sword was sharper, but with who was more ruthless. It depended on who could not endure it first and bled out first.
The helpless commoners were crying softly. The retreating soldiers were tired and afraid. The military and political officials led by Nick were perking up and strengthening their defense. The attack of the elves could arrive at any ti.
Under such circumstances, the festive atmosphere of the Vidal Chamber of Comrce was more or less a little inappropriate.
However, it could not be helped. Apart from a group of people from the Empire, there were also other magical species gathered here.
For example, an Earth Prince Consort who was passing by in a high-profile manner, the Autobot who was protesting for the humiliation, and the forever heartless green-skinned people.
Especially the orcs. They were not worried about the outco of the city, were not afraid of the attacks of the elves, and did not sigh at the cruelty of war. Therefore, they were very happy. This was the first ti they saw the Great Tyrant in the prophecy and the first ti they fought seriously. The two joys added up and obtained the sa amount of ti.
Therefore, they drank happily and ate and drank. Kang De could also sense the cultural atmosphere of the orcs at close range. The group of green-skinned people drank and bragged. The scene could not be controlled.
Although Kang De originally wanted to chat with her, Leona could not take it anymore and had long run away.
“…Watch them.”
Kang De said to his iron son, “Beat him until he bleeds. Begin to dismantle things. Beat him up. Defecate and urinate everywhere. Beat him up and throw the feces everywhere… Do you understand?”
The Autobot nodded, then said in a low voice, “Father, I want a na.”
“…Pfft.”
Kang De turned his head to the side and could not help it.
His iron son’s electronic eyes showed signs of turning red. “Father, what are you laughing at?”
Although it was a question, it was like a question.
Kang De blinked and said innocently, “I rember sothing happy.”
The parts on the Autobot’s body cracked. It was clearly very unhappy.
“Sigh, as an Autobot, the most important thing is to be happy. The na is only a code,” Kang De advised earnestly. “Look, I’m also called a Great Tyrant by them, but so what? This is only a different culture, so it sounds a little strange. I know that Little Tyrant is indeed not very good, but Iron Tyrant is fine. On Earth, there’s a na called Little Steel Cannon…”
At this point, his voice beca softer and softer.
This was because it was more stressful for his iron son to look at him in silence.
It was not that he was afraid. Let’s put it this way. If you spouted dirty jokes and Optimus Pri stood at the side looking down at you, not criticizing or interfering… you would definitely not be able to continue.
The Autobot was silent for a mont. After a dazzling change, he returned to the shape of a car.
He was sulking.
Kang De patted its hood. “Alright, if you don’t like it, I’ll think of a nice na for you. I promise you that it’ll definitely be serious and pleasant…”
He leaned against the car door and leaned against his iron son. He looked at the sky and slowly smiled, “I have to say that I’m not used to not having you by my side these few days. I can’t do this next ti.”
The Humr shook. A voice sounded from the speaker in the car, “Yes, I’m not used to it either.”
Kang De knocked on the car door with his elbow. “But you did very well.”
The Autobot was silent, not knowing how to respond to this praise.
A mont later, Kang De said, “Have you seen the portable hard drive I gave you?”
“Not yet.”
The Autobot replied, “It takes a short ti to transmit them in, but it takes a long ti to understand and understand… However, so blueprints are relatively simple.”
Kang De nodded. “It’s good that you can understand it… We might have to be busy tonight. The elves are actually very powerful. Although you were very successful in the day, firstly, you caught the elves off guard. They’ve never seen such a combat thod. Secondly, most of their strength is restrained by the city wall, which is why you’re unstoppable. In the end, our strength is still too weak. We can still fight tomorrow.”
The Autobot said calmly, “Yes, Father. I’ll help.”
At this point, the father and son were silent. The commotion of the green-skinned was only the soundtrack. Many nights, they had also looked up at the sky like this.
Suddenly, his iron son said, “Father, I want to na it myself.”
Kang De was stunned and disappointed, but he still respected its wishes. “Sure.”
“However…” He asked again, “What na do you want to give yourself?”
The Autobot replied, “I don’t know… I haven’t thought of it for the ti being, but I can slowly think about it. There are many stories in this world, and there are also many stories in Father’s world. I can see them bit by bit and think about them.”
Kang De was about to speak when he saw figures flash in the distance. Hong San stood in the shadow of the lamp. With a thought, he said, “Watch them here. I’ll be back later.”
The Autobot replied and said, “Right, Father, there’s sothing else in the portable hard drive you gave . I copied it earlier.”
Kang De was first puzzled, then he revealed a vigilant expression, “…What is it?”
His iron son said, “I didn’t take a closer look. It seems to be a collection of myths.”
Kang De could not help but heave a sigh of relief. Fortunately, he did not take the wrong one.
He thought for a mont and recalled the origin of those things. For a period of ti, he was interested in myths and legends all over the world, so he obtained many pictures and information and planned to slowly read them carefully.
Unfortunately, those ancient myths and legends were very interesting as lore when playing gas. The drawing looked very coquettish and huge, but when he read the original myth, he felt a little bored.
He waved his hand and said, “It’s a small matter. It’s only so myths and legends on Earth. You can take a look when you’re bored and treat it as relaxing… However, don’t have too high expectations.”
Then, Kang De walked towards Hong San.
The Autobot stopped quietly. In a way that humans could not understand, his mind was imrsed in the world of data and analyzed the complete information.
Suddenly, Kang De rushed back and patted the hood. “Hey!”
His iron son was shocked. “Father?”
“Let ask for the ti being. There shouldn’t be any ancient Greek mythology in that collection, right?”
“No, why?”
Kang De waved his hand with a strange expression and said, “It’s good that there isn’t. It’s fine.”
Ancient Greek culture could basically be said to be the origin of Western culture. In that era, the myths reflected the thoughts and wisdom of the ancient Greeks. They challenged authority, abandoned old innovations, and suspected everything. The specific plots in the myths were “killing their father”, “usurping the throne”, and “getting killed by their children”.
In fact, the entire Western cultural history was completely like a vast history of patricide.
This thing would lead children astray.
After confirming that there was nothing, he turned around and left in relief.
His iron son felt that it was baffling, but he had also inherited his father’s good character. When he encountered sothing he could not understand or understand, he would not think about it for the ti being and do what he could.
Therefore, it continued to open that collection and casually found one to analyze the information and read.
“Egyptian mythology…”
Kang De had already thrown this matter to the back of his mind and ca to Hong San. “Why did you disappear again?”
When the elves retreated and Kang De was surrounded and cheered by the soldiers, Hong San hid to the side. When he left the city wall with his iron son and the green-skinned people and asked about the cause and effect, Hong San did not follow. Instead, he gestured to Kang De that he would stay for the ti being. Then, he represented Kang De and Valentine to prevent a misunderstanding and fight for the spoils of war and credit that belonged to him.
After everything was done and after eting the mayor, he returned to the Chamber of Comrce alone.
When they were eating, Kang De pulled him along, but after eating for a while, he slipped away.
Facing Kang De’s question, Hong San smiled, “I’ll leave after eating. You know that I’m not comfortable.”
Kang De glared at him angrily.
So things were really engraved in his bones. Previously, it was the sa. When he was pulled to sit and eat with him, Hong San felt uncomfortable all over and could not sit still. Sotis, he would even subconsciously do sothing. For example, Kang De’s napkin was crooked, a plate was placed a little far away, and so residue fell on the table. Hong San would quickly deal with these things at lightning speed and could not control himself at all.
He shook his head. He did not want to say anything now, or rather, there was no need to.
This was because Hong San was already different from the Hong San in Glory Sand.
Kang De was the sa.
Hong San was already prepared to be reprimanded again, but he did not. He looked up and said in surprise, “Master… aren’t you going to say anything?”
Kang De reached out and patted his shoulder. “There’s a saying in my hotown—so people cut their braids but not their troubles. Such people are hopeless.”
“As for you, Hong San…”
He smiled, “Although you’re used to kneeling now, you’re already slowly standing up in your heart. Therefore, things will get better and better. There’s no need to be anxious. Just like the Leaning Tower of Pisa. Although it was crooked when it was first built, it’ll beco straight after countless days of blowing wind.”
Hong San was stunned and subconsciously asked, “The Leaning Tower of Pisa… What’s that?”
Kang De smiled and passed it by, “This is not important. What’s important is that Hong San, you have to rember one thing… You’re human.”
“I feel that as long as you rember that you’re human, the choice and actions will be obvious at a glance. You said that your master taught you to follow your heart, but you beca such a freak. That’s because he didn’t consider it carefully and forgot to tell you. Before following your heart, you have to rember that you’re human. What do you think?”
He had also drunk a little today. Although he was not drunk, he was slightly drunk because he was in a good mood.
That was why he said this to Hong San.
Hong San smiled and nodded. It was unknown if he had listened.
He pulled out a letter from his sleeve. This was a habit of the Easterners. “Soone ca to the city hall just now and sent two carts of things over. They said that they’re for you and a letter written by the mayor.”
At the ntion of Nick, the alcohol in Kang De’s eyes dissipated and his expression beca clear.
He took the letter and opened it. He stared at it and read ten lines at a glance, his eyes sweeping.
After a while, he let out a cold laugh filled with mockery and disdain.
Hong San was surprised to see this. He was about to ask what was written inside when he saw Kang De hand the letter to him. His expression did not change as he said, “I can’t read. Show what’s written.”
Hong San did not know whether to laugh or cry as he took it and read it along the way, “The polite words of gratitude, the noble’s words, his businesslike appearance, and the spoils of war I promised you have all been sent to you. He also sent so property, food, and so on as a reward… Look at the car outside. The gift is not light.”
Kang De nodded. He was sensible. No matter what, it was always good to have money.
Imdiately after, Hong San said, “He also said that the enchanted arrows you provided played a huge role in today’s city defense battle. He thanks you for your efforts and help and hopes that you can provide more…”
Kang De frowned, but he still nodded. It was the right thing to do. That thing was created to support the other party, and it was his idea.
However, in the next mont, Hong San exclaid and revealed a surprised expression before becoming uneasy.
Kang De noticed the change in his expression and asked, “What else did he say?”
Hong San did not answer. Instead, he looked back and forth a few tis and even reached out to take the envelope in Kang De’s hand. He compared it and the suspicion on his face gradually intensified, “That’s not right, this…”
Kang De said impatiently, “Tell , what does it say?”
Hong San hesitated and said, “He only wrote that he hopes you can help as usual. Protect this city with your friends… It doesn’t look like a problem, but I keep feeling that the tone is a little strange, as if sothing is wrong…”
Kang De asked Hong San to read the letter completely from beginning to end.
He did as he was told, but Kang De still could not tell what was wrong.
Hong San suggested, “Perhaps my status is low and I don’t understand the words and subtext of the nobles. Why don’t we let Miss Leona take a look?”
Kang De shook his head and said, “He was most likely angered today, so he’s unhappy… It doesn’t matter. In any case, I’m wary of him, and I’m not afraid of him. At this mont, let’s consider the matter of defending the city first. If you believe , I’ll give it to Leona later and let her take a look. However, wait a mont. Let’s talk about defending the city. What thod do you think we’ll use next ti the elves attack the city?”
