Chapter 548: 548
Old Kant Is Watching You
The night sky had completely fallen. Stars filled the sky, and the sea breeze blew and the waves roared.
The Knight Astolford parked outside the far harbor lit up with bright lights. From the bow to the stern, the newly added lighting equipnt made it look like a shining fortress on the sea.
Especially the protruding fire-control radar part, that huge and long, round and large pillar with a string of bright lighting groups wrapped around it, making it look like a giant glowing gun, which was daunting.
Kant received the first batch of infected people in the light.
Due to Horus ‘warning, the elven fleet suffered the least damage, with only one warship sinking. However, they were later attacked by the swarm of mutated dragons. Although the Royal Navy’s combat ability was the best in the world, there were still casualties. Putting aside the deaths, there were also many sailors who were more or less contaminated with the elent of contradiction. They were isolated according to ergency regulations, and according to the severity of the situation, the seriously ill were given priority treatnt.
The authority of the commanding officer and the strict rules of the naval tradition ensured that everything was carried out in an orderly manner.
The two ships lined up side by side. Horus released the foldable ladder. On the opposite deck, the elven sailors who needed treatnt were already lined up. Kant’s expression changed. He looked around and saw purple spots shining more or less inside their bodies. This was the new ability he had gained after connecting with the Paragon Engine.
It was also the reason why he had the confidence to control this terrifying substance.
This characteristic could even be used more.
The special substance known as the Elent of Parody had been deliberately sent to the previous era by the future Kant. Through Asha’s past arrangents, he had used the divine power of ti and space to form a flashback. He had even obtained this chanical world of springs and gears from sowhere, just to avoid the ears and ears of the Sound of Doomsday and complete this closed loop. It must have been of great use and significance. It might even be regarded by the future Kant as the key to defeating fate.
From now on, he would have to explore and use the elent of contradiction.
He already had a preliminary plan.
Commander Cavisarron personally boarded the ship with a few of his subordinates. He was very polite, and his expression was respectful but solemn. The commanders of the elven fleet all had the sa expression. They looked at Kant with both respect and hatred. Respect ca from power, and hatred ca from so kind of imagination.
After all, with the help of the monarchs and leaders of various countries, the gossip about the Phoenix King and the Skyquaking Dragon had beco more and more intense. It had always been a hot topic in various countries and regions.
“.. Your Highness.”
The elves ‘bitter expressions reminded people of the greenery of the great forest.
“We’re ready,” said the Brigadier General.
Kant looked at the distant port. The sky was completely dark, but the port city not far away was brightly lit. There were many dancing flas wandering around. It was obvious that the search team was holding torches.
The interest groups in the distant port should be doing their best.
It was obvious that Kant’s hostile attitude and terrifying threat had them thoroughly terrified.
A friendly Forbidden Mage could stop a war for Goethe, sweep through the three navies with alchemical warships, and bring peace and protection to distant ports. What if it was a cruel one?
Therefore, they could only do as they were told.
Moreover, Kant’s request was to arrest the instigators and rioters in the city. It was completely reasonable.
Because the aftermath had proven that these rioters ‘actions were complete slander. They slandered a great expert who fought for Goethe. According to the laws of any country, it would not be a problem to hang them all. In so more authoritative countries, there was nothing to say even if they killed their entire family. This was the privilege of the strong.
The reason why they were unwilling to do so was that they were afraid of ruining their reputation, which was neither too big nor too small of a problem. Secondly, they knew that the instigators and executors of this matter were inextricably linked to the Empire, the Council, and even the elves. The trade unions, ships, and workshops that served the three countries had more or less contributed. If they were to kill them, they would undoubtedly offend the three behemoths.
Kant was not afraid, but they were.
But Kant had also made his stance clear. Aren’t you afraid of ?
Afraid.
Therefore, he could only bite the bullet and do it.
No one was destined to sleep in Distant Harbor tonight.
Kant turned around and looked at the elves before him.” There’s no need to be so formal. We’re actually family now. I’m not treating you as captives…” he said casually.
Damn, this sentence almost made the elves choke.
Their faces were all red, and their eyes were filled with fear and despair.
This ntal state was described in detail in many literary works on Earth. Just like how those works unfolded, they could only pretend that nothing had happened.
Kant said,” I’ve taken a look. Your infection isn’t serious. Hurry up and screen all of you. Once you’re cured, you still have to take care of the council. As for you guys, co one boat at a ti. Once you’re done, sail to the side and drop the anchor to sleep. The prisoner camp isn’t ready yet. You guys can make do on the ship.”
He shook his head and said,” Sigh, it’s actually quite troubleso. You’re all elves, and you have a national grudge against Goethe and . It’s not convenient for to use you, and there’s no point in locking you up. I don’t intend to use you to extort anything from the Sunset Moon Council. After all…” Ha, you all know. So why don’t I just let you guys go? How about this, you can leave after you’re cured…”
“Your Highness!”
The elves snapped out of their reverie. The light of the great forest shone on them. They gritted their teeth, but they did not dare to speak the truth. The commander was the better one. He said,” The dignity of the elves does not allow us to leave after accepting the kindness of the enemy! I beg you to allow us to repay you accordingly!”
Kant’s expression was troubled. He was hesitant.
“Your Highness!” ” Please!” The elves begged bitterly.” Please have rcy! We have already lost the battle and have nothing but our dignity. Please don’t take away what’s left of us!”
The elves surrounded Kant and begged him. They were just short of dying to prove their loyalty. Kant saw that it was about ti. He pretended to think for a while.” Forget it. There’s a small matter now.” You guys go and help out. After you’re done, we’ll be even, okay?”
“Whether or not we’re even is up to our judgnt!” Kavisaron said decisively. Please tell !”
Ah, I’m even starting to like these elves.
Kant sat on a chair at the side.” Have your n co first. We’ll talk as we treat them.”
They were busy until almost midnight.
It was actually very simple to remove the Paragon Elent from the soldiers. Kant had a strong affinity for this mysterious elent, so he could easily use the Fire Stealer’s power to strip and absorb it. The process was to line up the soldiers and walk up to him. He would look at them, then shake his hand or pat them on the shoulder.
It could basically be treated as a large-scale handshake party.
The benefit of doing so was that every infected crew mber in the fleets of the three countries would rember Kant.
They boarded this steel warship that only existed in legends and legends and ca into close contact with this peerless expert who had destroyed the army with forbidden spells and intimidated the entire world. They even had a short conversation with him.
The world was used to looking up to the strong and the powerful. Kant was not so hateful politician, but a powerful person who wielded the power of destruction. The sailors had witnessed the mythical warship leap out of the portal of space at the most desperate mont. The shocking scene had been etched in their minds for a long ti. It would definitely beco a topic of conversation by the furnace in decades to co. Now, the legendary figure was treating them personally.
Although it wasn’t to the extent of making them bow their heads, their instinctive gratitude and respect had already been imprinted.
Not to ntion the Paragon Engine.
These creatures, who had been infected by the Paragon Elent but still retained their intelligence, felt an indescribable sense of awe when they saw Kant, especially when the distorted substance in their bodies flowed out like water and returned to the sea. It was especially so when the power disappeared. They even felt a sense of loss.
Kant’s plan had been set the mont they arrived at the distant harbor.
There was only a difference between zero and countless tis.
Now that they were short of manpower, how could they let them go just because they worked for a short ti?
“Everyone.”
Kant sat at the edge of a round table in the conference room of the Afu. There were more than twenty elven mages standing before him. The large space and small group helped the listener build a certain positive trust.
“Did Brigadier General Cavisaron tell you the details?” he asked.
“Yes, my lord.”
” In the na of the mbers of the Rebellion Society,” the mage in the lead said.” They will participate in the search for the rioters in the distant harbor. One hundred and twenty elite marines will also be selected as the first batch of mbers of the action team for Your Highness to command.”
” In order not to arouse the national sentints of the Goethe people, we will hide the physical characteristics of the elves with our hoods. If we encounter any organizations or spies under Twilight Moon, we are authorized to avoid suspicion.”
The mage gave a military salute.” Sir, we are elite spellcasters selected by the commander and the chief mage. We are experienced and are good at close combat and rapid reaction warfare. We all have a law degree in the spirit departnt and have received judicial training. Most importantly, we all have the King’s Party background.”
“I hope this will reduce your doubts.”
” Yes.” Kant nodded.” Spell Caster, your na.”
“Miniglit, Your Highness.” The mage said,” Thank you for dispelling the cursed evil. We all swear to repay your kindness with our hard work and dedication.”
The bitterness in their eyes was exactly the sa as Brigadier General Kalvesaron’s.
This was a good thing.
Kant pointed at the table next to him.” I believe in your determination and will. Everyone, no one knows elves better than I do. Try this. It’s a small gift I prepared for you.”
The elves with keen attention entered the eting room and began to observe the strange props and layout around them. Ever since they boarded the warship, the mages with extensive knowledge had been secretly observing all the details of the warship until they were allowed to enter the eting room. What they saw along the way made them uneasy.
The wise mages had already determined a fact.
The various designs and arrangents of this huge warship all indicated one thing-it was designed to carry at least hundreds of combatants to fight alongside the ship.
But there was no one.
Why?
All sorts of doubts and uneasiness were suppressed in their hearts. They followed Kant’s gaze and looked over. In fact, the elves had already seen that there were dozens of wrist guards on the round table made of strange materials.
” Wizard Miniglit, please put it on.”
Kant picked one up and handed it to the man.
The spellcaster only hesitated for a mont before he put it on his hand without hesitation. The card slot was fastened well, and the workmanship was not bad. The design was interesting. Mind power could not penetrate it, but he could sense extraordinary energy fluctuations.
” This is a small gift that will allow you to better carry out the mission I have given you. It can be considered a small benefit and support. Everyone, this is the prerequisite for everything.”
” If you want to work for , Kant, then you must wear this bracelet. Don’t lend it, take it off, lose it, or give it to anyone else until you regain your freedom. When that ti cos, rember to return it to , okay?”
Surveillance, positioning, control…Various thoughts erged in the minds of the Spell Casters.
It wasn’t like they didn’t understand.
Once the information about the alchemical warship was spread, the whole world would probably admit that His Highness Kant’s alchemy was unparalleled in the world. If one were to say that this thing was useless, it would be better to say that this bastard and the queen were innocent. The elves did not show any expression on the surface, but they were sneering in their hearts.
Gifts, benefits, support.
What a joke.
Kant smiled and gestured to Miniglit.” Mage, perform.”
The other party was a little dissatisfied.
” Show a little magic or a little trick. It doesn’t matter if you’re rubbing ice or playing with fire. Show .”
The spellcasters explored the ultimate mysteries of the world, cultivated diligently, and were noble and powerful. How could they be compared to the circus’s magic tricks? The elven mage had wanted to say this, but the Forbidden Spell was too scary.
Forget it, he would just treat it as showing the results to the Scouts.
” Let your magic power flow through your wrist guard,” Kant said.” Then cast a spell.”
Miniglit did as he was told.
The next mont, a bright pillar of fire rose from his hand. This was the most basic Palm Fire, a small technique for apprentices to practice elental affinity and control!
The Spell Caster’s expression changed drastically, as if he had seen the most terrifying thing. He was so shocked that his face turned pale. He reached out to grab the bracer, wanting to tear it off.
” Don’t be afraid,” Kant said calmly.” Feel it. It’s different.”
The mage’s movents paused, and then he stopped, trying to mobilize his magic power.
Slowly sensing.
Then, his expression changed again.
From disbelief to disbelief, the forr was fear, the latter…There was a hint of surprise.
The other mages weren’t stupid. They could sense sothing from their companions ‘behavior.
“Just like you guys thought.” Kant said,” Inside the wristband, there’s a Paragon Elent sealed inside. It’s the thing that infected you. That’s what it’s called, I told you.”
He looked at the faces, and the noble elves revealed different expressions.
Surprise, fear, dread, retreat, and hesitation.
“I know what everyone is thinking.”
Kant said,” All of you have been infected by the elent of contradiction. That terrifying thing can turn living beings into ugly puppets. You have seen it before. It is said to be a gift from the devil because there are opportunities in danger. I believe you have discovered that this elent can greatly increase your supernatural powers.”
” To be honest, it’s indeed impressive that you’re still able to make up your mind to let carry out the purge after tasting that taste. I don’t know if it’s because of your superior’s strict orders or your own rationality, but to be able to make such a decision is worthy of admiration…But now, as you can see.”
” They were extracted, transford, and sealed by ,” he said calmly.” Now, they are completely harmless.”
Kant picked up a wrist guard and waved it in front of the elves.”It’s a relatively simple and primitive version. It was urgently modified for tonight’s event. The workmanship and design are not good. I’m sorry to make a fool of myself. According to my estimation, it can increase your overall spellcasting ability by at least 30%. There will be more in the future.”
” Don’t worry. I don’t need to use these things to sche against you. Firstly, you’re not worthy. Secondly, I want to control the elves. There’s no need to use such an inefficient thod.”
” So, give it a try. Like I said, this is a gift. If you reject it now, it might be a little difficult for you to use it in the future. At least in the short term, I don’t have any plans to say it.”
The mages looked at the wrist guard, their expressions uncertain.
For Spell Casters, every bit of improvent was a dream co true.
‘What do you an I can’t use external objects? Are you kidding ? I can’t be a mage god, and I don’t want to engrave my na on the path of arcana. This thing can increase my combat power by 30%, which ans more chances of survival, promotion, and rewards. Whoever doesn’t use it would be stupid.’
However, the horror and torture of the Paragon Elent entering their bodies still terrified them.
“I will be honest with you, everyone.” Kant said,” Using this is a prerequisite of our agreent. If you don’t want to use it, you can withdraw. I won’t make things difficult for you, but if you’re willing to use it, you have to agree to my conditions. You can’t take it off, dismantle it for research, destroy it by force, or give it to anyone else.”
“You can send this information back to the country. I don’t mind. You can reject this condition, but if you want to withdraw from this operation, I respect your position and thoughts.”
” The only thing I can’t tolerate is betrayal and breaking promises.”
” If you agree to my conditions but don’t do it, it ans that you’ve betrayed my trust. All of you who betrayed will suffer the most desperate consequences. The people of Splendor Sand Town, the elf expedition army that was blown up by Lucerne City, and the people of the distant lands over there are all clear about this.”
“You’ve all thought it through.”
Kant waved the wrist guard in his hand and pointed at those items.
After a mont of silence, an elf slowly walked forward and took the wrist guard from Kant’s hand. He put it on his own hand and bowed to Kant.
One after another.
There was no need to sign any contracts or contracts.
They all knew the consequences of breaking a promise, and they also knew Kant’s ability to execute.
” Everyone, familiarize yourself with your new item. I hope the user experience is good.” Kant said,” You can leave now. While you’re at it, you can discuss with the elites of the Royal Marine Corps whether they, as powerful warriors, need this gift.”
These elven mages left, their backs looking a little dejected.
The last elf walked out of the room and left under the guidance of Horus through the loudspeaker in the corridor.
Lily, who had been sitting beside him as a bodyguard, moved a stool to Kant and looked at him for a while.” You have a big appetite. I was wondering why you were so generous. You actually wanted free treatnt without any conditions. I didn’t expect you to wait here. You actually want to poach the three kingdoms.”
Kant spread his hands.” I’m in despair too. I’m a lone commander. I lack manpower and followers. I can only think of a way myself.”
“It’s very difficult to cultivate spells. There’s a limit to one’s talent. When one reaches a certain level, it’ll be very difficult to improve. I think those elven mages ‘lives are coming to an end. It’s indeed tempting for you to suddenly take out sothing that can increase their comprehensive casting ability by 30%. Moreover, there might be even better things in the future…Tsk tsk, how tempting.”
” But aren’t you afraid that the other countries will take the opportunity to plant spies?” Lily squinted.
“I’m not afraid. It’s better to say that it’s a good thing.”
Kant raised his eyebrows and smiled.” Basically, if they want to plant a spy in, they have to stuff ten innocent people in as cover. Wouldn’t that be very profitable for ?” And if a certain guy is a spy, then he will definitely work hard to perform and climb up to gain my trust. For this, he will have to continuously build rits and prove his value to . Such a good employee, of course, I have to use him well.”
F * ck, that makes sense.
Lily choked for a mont. She could not help but argue with Kant when she saw his smug expression.
“But there are also good people who want to perform well. How can you tell who is a spy?”
Kant smiled aningfully.
For this batch of wrist guards, he had gone to the White Fog World overnight to sweep through more than ten mobile phone stores.
“.. Forget it, I’m too lazy to know. I don’t want you to deduct my shares again.”
Long Niang shook her head and said,”However, this Paragon Elent is indeed useful. The armor you made for us the other day was like this…” Is there anything more powerful?”
“You don’t say. There really is.” Kant stroked his chin.” I plan to build a heavy combat armor for you in your dragon form. It’s a semi-protective armor that protects vital parts and can also provide auxiliary thrust for the wings. Most importantly, it’ll be equipped with a Paragon Particle Cannon, turning you into a vanguard gunboat…”
“What is that? It sounds so weird!”
“F * ck, he’s super handso.”
” Please allow to question your taste…”
“Alright, alright, secretary, quickly call the people from the council over. F * ck, I have to say the sa trick a few tis… In the end, we still lack people.”
“Hey! Why do I have a new position?”
“0.1%…”
“Yes, boss!”
After Long Niang left, Kang De relaxed and exhaled slowly.
“Father.”
Horus ‘voice rang out.
” The connection is successful. Images and sounds have been successfully received. However, the temporary data exchange link established with the help of this warship is still of limited effectiveness…We need a better solution.”
Kant nodded.
Because in the near future, his eyes and ears would be under his control from Valentan in the east to Far Harbor in the west, and even the underground world two thousand ters deep.
This required a huge information system, and even Earth’s technology could not complete it alone.
The elent of contradiction…
“We will do it,” he said.
