Chapter 417 - 417 Long Time No See



When the maid read the name of this Cathayan in a mouthful, Kang De’s face revealed a happy expression. He swallowed a pancake in his hand and patted the residue in his hand.

“Eat first.”

He reached out and patted the gorilla and Tina’s shoulders. Kang De pulled out a chair and jumped up. He grabbed two bags of crispy noodles and put them in his pocket. With a few small steps, he darted to the door and disappeared in a flash.

!!

The gorilla bit into the half-eaten apple and swallowed it. She shouted, “Wait for me!”

The two of them darted out of the door one after another. Tina had just put down her chopsticks when the princess gently wiped her lips with a napkin with a confused and subtle expression.

In her impression, Hong San was a servant of the Goode family. He was afraid of death and was willing to lower himself. Until now, she could not imagine what change such a person would have. He could actually make Kang De treat him like this. In the past few days, when she talked about Hong San, Kang De was beaming with joy and praised him. It was simply as if he was showing off.

This feeling and mood had a subtle sense of déjà vu.

She looked at Hillmelia, who was sitting opposite her. “Aunt, Hong San, the Cathayan, do you still remember?”

Sword Saint Snowfall’s breakfast was made by Master Kang. She ate with her fork. When she heard this, she looked up and sucked a noodle into her mouth, “I remember. What’s wrong?”

Tina asked, “You’ve seen him in Valentine?”

“Yes, there’s a huge change. He’s simply a different person. His back is straight and he doesn’t look sideways, like a gem covered in dirty impurities that has been wiped clean and bloomed with the light it deserves.”

The Sword Saint said, “There’s no doubt that Kang De is the person who wiped Hong San clean.”

When Tina heard this, she was deep in thought and said softly, “It should be an unforgettable memory…”

She called the maids in and instructed them to prepare formal clothes for her. She also instructed the female butler to inform the palace office to arrange the place of residence for Hong San and the others and even allocate resources. She specially instructed them to be appropriate and not be negligent.

From Kang De’s words and information about Valentine, Hong San had already obtained his trust and importance. In other words, for a long time, Hong San would definitely be the chief retainer under Kang De. Even if the scale expanded next and new people joined, he would not easily replace Hong San’s position. In other words, as the core figure under Kang De, Hong San’s will and attitude would have a far-reaching impact.

Therefore, from Hong San onwards, Tina had to establish her identity and prestige as the mistress.

With someone leading the way, Kang De urged him again and again. The maid who led the way quickly jogged and led him to the reception room.

This time, the living room was arranged to see the room on the first floor of the West Wing in the Maple Leaf Palace. Kang De turned around the corridor and looked at the four guards guarding from afar with a frown.

“Your Highness, please forgive us. For your personal safety, we have to wait here and be personally told by you.” After the lead guard bowed, he asked, “Other than a Cathayan and two Belloran, there’s also a green-skinned orc who claims to be your follower. May I ask if that’s the case?”

Before Kang De could speak, an earth-shattering shout sounded from inside, “Great… Tyrant…”

The double doors of the reception room were suddenly knocked open. Green-skinned people covered in armor and decorated with strange decorations rushed out like online gamers. They had sharp fangs and huge eyes as they looked at Kang De with excitement.

Heaven Slash first laughed three times, then cried three times.

Although these naive and ferocious guys looked ferocious and terrifying, to Kang De, they were much cuter than humans. These green-skinned seemed to treat Kang De as a figure in a prophecy and firmly believed in this, becoming his most loyal lackeys. They were so innocent. As long as he fiddled with a stronger and more domineering explosion for them, he, Kang De, would be light, electricity, and the only myth.

It had been a long time since he last saw these cute big guys. Kang De indeed missed them.

He patted the other party’s Hulk-like arm. “What are you laughing at and crying for?”

“I’m happy to see the Great Tyrant so I laugh!” Heaven Slash could not help but start to howl again, “Cry because—I didn’t catch the hot feces again. I’m unhappy! I’m even more unhappy not to have a fight!”

Kang De rushed to help from Valentine. Cannon fire filled the sky along the way and countless people were killed. In the battle of Red Maple City, he launched an open space attack and swept through the Twilight Air Force. In the end, he even launched a forbidden curse and almost destroyed the entire Elven Expeditionary Force. All kinds of things shocked the continent. It was enough to be called a scene.

In the end, the green-skinned still could not see it with their own eyes.

It was unknown how many times this had happened.

Kang De did not know whether to laugh or cry and could only comfort him, “Definitely next time, definitely next time.”

As he spoke, he turned to look at the guards. “As you can see, it’s indeed my follower. Thank you for your diligence. Guards, it’s fine now.”

The gorilla arrived later, so the guards left in relief. A few more people came out of the reception room.

First, there were Cassandra and Alexios, who were Belloran people who carried the hatred of their country being destroyed. When the two of them saw the gorilla, they revealed happy expressions and went forward to greet her.

After the gorilla landed in Glory Sand Town, in order to find Kang De, she barged through the continent and accidentally pulled up a mercenary group. The Eagle Tamer siblings could be considered her hardcore lackeys and their relationship was not bad. She had been holding her breath in the Maple Leaf Palace for the past few days and was very happy to see her familiar subordinates.

Kang De looked at the last person to walk out.

Perhaps because he had rushed through the night, his face was weathered, but he was still in high spirits and his eyes were bright. Seeing Kang De look over, he smiled and bowed, “I, your subject, Hong San, have arrived.”

Kang De strode over and pulled Hong San’s arm. Then, he carried him forward and patted his back twice. “It’s been a long time. You’re finally here.”

Hong San smiled and said, “It’s indeed been a long time. Before the news of the victory was sent back, my days simply felt like years.”

Kang De was stunned.

Ah, indeed.

To Hong San, it had only been four to five days since Kang De left.

However, to Kang De, it was a longer and tiring story.

When he thought of this, he smiled. “There were no accidents on the way, right?”

Hong San smiled and said, “It’s all thanks to Your Highness’ divine might. Have a safe trip.”

Kang De nodded and said, “That’s good. The entire country is busy suppressing bandits and hunting slave traders now. There are also many chaotic armies and war hyenas. Moreover… logically speaking, I’m really a little worried. It’s good that you’re fine.”

Hong San smiled widely and nodded in agreement, “Yes, the territory of Goethe is indeed not too stable now, and I’m not at ease. Therefore, I found an elf army to escort. When I encounter the Goethe army, I’ll raise your flag. This way, the journey will be safe and there will be armies taking the initiative to escort me along the way. This can be considered a fox using the might of a tiger.”

Kang De said in surprise, “Elephant army escort?”

“Yes, I told that elf general that I’m His Highness Kang De’s retainer. Everyone in Valentine knows that I’ve come to your army’s territory. If I don’t return, everyone will know that you did it. My lord, Kang De, will definitely not rest with you—they’re helpless and can only send troops to escort us.”

At this point, Hong San smiled and cupped his hands, “Your Highness’ ferocious might is terrifying.”

Kang De pointed at him. “How coquettish.”

“Right,” Hong San said seriously, “I haven’t congratulated Your Highness on your complete victory and reputation. After the battle of Red Maple City, no one dared to underestimate and criticize Your Highness anymore. You used your iron-like battle results to confirm that the battle of Valentine was not a coincidence… Congratulations, Your Highness.”

“Alright, let’s not talk about this first. Have you eaten breakfast?”

“I ate on the way.”

...

“Then eat more.”

Kang De handed the cumin-flavored snack in his pocket over and said, “Let’s talk inside.”

He called Heaven Slash, the gorilla, and the others into the house. Heaven Slash had been looking around. At this moment, he asked at the top of his voice, “Great Tyrant! Where’s Little Tyrant?! I miss it!”

The Little Tyrant naturally referred to Horus. When he was searching for his father, his iron son met these green-skinned and formed a friendship with them. Moreover, he had obtained the noble and powerful name of the Little Tyrant.

Of course, Horus himself was unwilling to admit it.

As for his iron son… this matter was really difficult to explain in a few words. Kang De could only comfort him, “Not now. It has something on. Let’s talk later—I’ll bring you to see the explosion later.”

When Hong San heard this, his eyes flashed in thought.

Closing the door of the reception room, Kang De shouted, “Gorilla.”

“What’s wrong?”

“You guys chat first. I have something to say to Hong San. Help me keep an eye on him. Call me if there’s anything.”

“Oh.”

...

Kang De pointed at the small room beside the reception room. “Let’s go.”

Hong San nodded and followed.

The small room beside the large reception room was used for secret rooms. There were all the tables and chairs. Kang De closed the door, pulled out a chair, sat down, and pointed across. “Sit.”

Hong San sat upright and rigidly.

“It’s good that you’re here. Help me understand. There have been a thousand things going on in the past few days. After winning, there will even be more things to do. No one can discuss it…”

Kang De snapped his fingers. The dark space door opened in the air above the table and connected to the white fog world. Mineral water, crispy noodles, good friends, boneless chicken feet, beef jerky, and so on fell out and covered the table.

Kang De tore open a bag of Bataan fruit. “Let’s talk as we eat.”

When Hong San saw this scene, he was first surprised, then happy, “Your Highness has improved again? Previously, Your Highness did not seem to be able to do this… Congratulations.”

Kang De revealed a strange expression, then he could not help but laugh.

Hong San was puzzled. He thought for a moment and asked, “Did I say anything wrong?”

Kang De smiled and said, “It’s not that my skills and abilities have improved… Let me tell you an example. I’ve played a game. Ah, just treat it as a story I’ve seen. A powerful, mysterious, and dark terrifying person. He’s wearing a black robe and his weapons are two powerful shotguns.”

“He shuttles through the shadows and launches a surprise attack. His two guns shoot fatal flames. The firepower is ferocious and persistent. He doesn’t need to reload. After the shotgun empties the ammunition, he discards the guns. Then two new guns filled with ammunition will appear in his hands. They’ll be endless, magical, and strange.”

“Everyone is curious where that endless firearms and ammunition came from, what magical skill or technology it is. People guess that people are curious. The most widely recognized explanation for people dying is that he’s proficient in some phase technology or spatial skill, allowing him to reconstruct and obtain weapons…”

Hong San asked, “But what’s actually going on?”

Kang De smiled and said, “Actually, it’s not that high-tech, nor is it that magical. It’s just that there’s a door hidden under the cloak that leads to the mysterious space. At the other end of the space, there’s a mountain of shotguns and a group of sweating workers waiting for his signal and throwing guns crazily into the spatial door.”

When Hong San heard this, he laughed.

He glanced curiously at the still-open door, “Is this the ‘there’s something else’ you mentioned?”

“Yes, it has to carry out the mission of a tool after all… I’m joking. In fact, its situation is not too good. I have to formulate a system plan, and this is only one of the things I have to do next.”

Kang De snapped his fingers and closed the spatial door. His smile slowly disappeared.

“In fact, it’s seriously injured. We were attacked last night in Maple Leaf Palace. It was a powerful assassin with a mysterious background in front of everyone… You didn’t expect such a thing to actually happen at such a grand time. The war has never ended.”

Hong San did not look surprised. He pondered for a moment and said, “No wonder the atmosphere has been wrong since I entered the city. There’s something wrong with the way the general guarding the city gate looks at me. I asked a little, and he was very vigilant and did not have any enthusiasm at all. From the moment I entered the city to visiting the Maple Leaf Palace, the security was too strict and belonged to the category of overcorrection. Overcorrection is usually the early reaction of an accident…”

At this point, he shook his head. “I was still very worried at that time. I didn’t expect…”

“Attacking Horus is not much different from attacking me. Or rather, targeting Horus can show the other party’s shrewdness and know me very well.”

Kang De said, “They knew that I had a spatial superpower and it was very difficult to injure me, so they attacked Horus. After seriously injuring Horus, my conventional deterrence ability decreased. Only my strategic deterrence ability is left. The situation will become subtle… What a f*cking mess.”

Hong San pondered for a moment and asked, “Do you have any clue who the enemy is?”

“The dragons said there was a way. They also caught a tongue last night,” Kang De said. “The dragons are looking for a way. The tongue is being interrogated by Tedrell. There’s no result yet. It needs time.”

He roughly told him about last night, including the dragons.

“From the outcome of the attack last night, the dragons benefited the most, so they’re the most suspicious. Actually, that’s not the case. It’s not that the dragons benefited the most, but on the surface, the dragons benefited the most, but we don’t know who benefited in the dark. We can only prepare early and act according to the situation.”

Hong San said, “The dragons are all innocent. We don’t know if we can track down clues. We don’t know if we can interrogate anything from the captives last night. These are all uncertain factors. Before uncertainty becomes certainty, let’s do what we can.”

Kang De asked, “What confirmed thing?”

“In other words, the worst situation. The dragons are lying, or the clues were interrupted. The hidden enemy is still spying with a malicious gaze and planning the next operation.”

Hong San said, “On this premise, we have to take action and say it one by one.”
