Civilization: Beyond Two Worlds

345 Asking

The king still knew which car was safer.

After getting into the car, Chakat II immediately put on his seatbelt and bumped his fist with Kang Jinzhu. Everything was completed in tacit understanding. Then, he carefully touched the car deck.

“Hey, brother, no matter who you are, no matter if you’re an artificial intelligence, a super hacker, or a top player in the tank world who controls this car from afar, or if you’re a Transformer, please protect me, okay? I might have to stand on the roof later. In that case, my people can see me.”

“Although I admit that returning to the capital at this time is very stupid, my goal is to protect and save my people, not to be stupidly shot because I stand too high…”

!!

The black man spoke seriously and long-windedly. This concerned his life, so he seemed a little long-winded.

“Therefore, try your best to protect me, okay? If possible…”

At this point, Chakat II said carefully, “Just honk the horn?”

The Hummer honked.

Brother Black’s expectant gaze instantly turned to surprise.

He opened his mouth wide and widened his bell-like eyes, revealing his snow-white teeth. He looked at Kang Jinzhu beside him and shouted, “Jinzhu! Jinzhu, did you hear that? It answered me! It answered me! It’s too magical!”

Kang Jinzhu smiled faintly and stepped on the accelerator.

The Hummer set off steadily and followed the convoy.

The police officers and soldiers were all waiting solemnly. They had received an order from their superiors to enter the city to save the civilians and maintain order. Even if they had very few people and the danger still existed, they did not hesitate to carry out the order and enter the battlefield area that they did not understand.

However, soon, they discovered that there was no need to be wary.

This was because he had not heard any gunshots along the way. There were no hostile armed men, only injured people, people asking for help, crying loudly, and seriously injured people.

The chaotic situation, sad sobs, and desperate eyes looked at the desperate sky.

The soldiers from China looked at all of this and revealed unwilling and angry expressions. Only the most despicable coward would do such torture to innocent civilians.

Chakat II’s previous joy had already disappeared. The black man’s joy came and went quickly. The convoy quickly became impassable. Without hesitation, the king pushed open the door and climbed into the car.

“Comorians! Look at me! Look at me!”

A familiar voice attracted people’s attention. Desperate and numb people looked up.

Their eyes fluctuated a little.

That was their king.

The drawbridge effect.

Humans would always produce different emotions in danger. Moreover, in backward areas, indisputable rulers would make people involuntarily feel trust and reverence.

Moreover, Chakat II did not use strength and cruelty to rule his citizens.

“I’m here! My people! I’m your king! Your patriarch! Look at me! Everyone looks at me! I won’t leave! I didn’t in the past, not now, and not in the future! I guarantee you that I didn’t come back from studying in the United States to abandon you, but to be with you!”

“I know you’re flustered and helpless, so listen to my orders and do as I say!”

“I ask you to leave the dangerous area immediately. I ask you to help the people around you!”

“Don’t panic, don’t be chaotic. If you’re separated from your family, don’t be anxious because you’re looking for them. Don’t run and call out in a hurry. This is useless and will only exacerbate the chaotic situation!”

“I know you’re worried about your relatives, but do you see the people around you? Don’t they need help? Aren’t they from Comoros? Aren’t they our people?”

“Help them! Save the people who asked for help from the ruins! Take care of the children! And the old! Just like they’re your children! They’re your parents! Everyone has to do this! Therefore, your parents and children will also be taken care of like this, saved and protected by people you don’t know!”

“Everyone has to be like this. Everyone will be safe. We have to unite!”

“I’ve already fought for help from China! Soon! Food, medicine, and clothes will be airdropped over soon! Transport them over! Everything will be fine!”

“But we can’t sit and wait! We’ve waited for too long! We’ve waited for hundreds of years! In the end, we experienced the enslavement of the colonists and the white phosphorus bombs of the French! We have to stand up, protect ourselves, and save our clansmen. The Chinese’s assistance will take a while, but our compatriots can’t wait that long!”

“Help them! Help everyone! Listen to orders!”

“Every district! Old people who know everyone, please stand up! Powerful men, please stand up!”

“I need someone with a loud voice! Someone who can run fast! Go to every block! Tell the people! I’m here! Tell the Comorians to save themselves, protect themselves, and help everyone!”

“Listen to me! Listen to me!”

The armed police warriors and the doctors accompanying the team began to command work and distribute medicine. The king began to choose people to find retired public officials and soldiers. The police station and the pharmaceutical department had urgently needed resources, and the houses of the people who had not been burned had things they could use, many things.

The chaotic crowd had already slowly calmed down and had a backbone.

They surrounded Chakat II and slowly formed order according to his instructions.

Kang Jinzhu was also helping, but he looked into the distance from time to time. Suddenly, someone patted his shoulder and turned around. Chakat II had already jumped out of the car and pointed behind. “Go.”

Kang Jinzhu asked, “What?”

“Have you forgotten why you’re here? I’m not qualified for you to abandon the most important thing to help… Go do what you should have done. I’ll return the car to you. You need it more than me.”

Kang Jinzhu was stunned for a moment before nodding. “Be careful too.”

“No problem. This is my city, my country, and my people.”

The black man revealed his shining teeth. “Also, I’ve heard from my clansmen that the Eagle God who soars in the sky… When you see your son, thank him for me and thank him for everything he’s done for this city.”

“I will.”

Kang Jinzhu jumped into the car. The crowd parted and the Hummer roared into the distance. By the time Major Liang discovered that he was already gone,

The king smiled and comforted him, “It’s fine, Chinese friend. The current Moroni is his son’s territory.”

The Hummer started in the street.

The city was neither big nor small, but he could not search carefully. However, Kang Jinzhu only said one thing.

“Find Kang De.”

Therefore, the car started on its own and searched. From time to time, it honked.

...

However, he had never found it.

Only the golden eagle flew in the sky. From time to time, phantoms and streams of light would be seen, but Kang De had never appeared. Perhaps he was busy saving people, or perhaps he did not want to see anyone.

When night gradually fell, the fire in the entire city was controlled. There were cries everywhere, but there was order everywhere. Candles, bonfires, and kerosene lamps were lit on the streets. There were stars. Unlike the hot waves of fire that devoured life, this light gave people hope.

The hope of continuing forward in the ruins and corpses.

Amidst the ruins, Kang Jinzhu finally saw his son.

Kang De stood in the ruins with the broken rocks and tiles beside him. He slowly placed the small charred corpse in his hand gently on the ground between the arms twisted by the flames at his feet.

He looked around numbly at the desolation that was hidden by the night. His body was stained with dark red blood and black dust. He stood in this most completely destroyed area and looked around in confusion as if he had not discovered his father and Horus approaching, but he had clearly seen them.

He slowly moved his shoulders, neck, and sat on the ground.

Kang Jinzhu took two steps forward and said in a low voice, “Kang De…”

Kang De looked at the ground in a daze and ignored it.

“I say…”

...

He seemed to be talking to himself or his father.

“What… is going on?”

“People kill, people die, children cry, and relatives are separated. Why do the people on Earth still have to fight?”

“Did you hear that?”

“Why did they do this?”

“Did I… mess things up?”

…
