231 I Can Rest Now
Time…
Kang De’s heart stirred.
The inheritance mechanism of the crimson scroll was very mysterious.
Firstly, there was no manual. Secondly, there was no pattern.
If he had to talk about rules, he could only say that the method to trigger the divine power inheritance seemed to be very idealistic. The Dragon of Time and Space was a good god who symbolized righteousness and pity. If he wanted to obtain its approval, he probably had to comprehend the meaning of righteousness and pity… It sounded very mysterious, but from the outcome, it was indeed so.
Then, according to this inheritance theory, Kang De had personally seen the suffering of the war and the fate of the people who could not help themselves in the final battle of Valentine, causing him to sincerely feel pity. There was also the determination to end the war. Then, he gave up on walking to the altar in front of the national cemetery and called on the Goethe people to realize the meaning of battle and the concept of their race. This righteousness and pity were already very in place.
Therefore, what were the benefits?
Although the ability to open the “door” was already very useful, not only could it be used to accelerate attacks, but it was also very useful in other aspects.
The enhancement of the Dragon God’s power could allow him to travel between the two worlds many times a day. Using the spatial anchor ability he had obtained earlier, it was enough to achieve the effect of teleportation. Moreover, he could open a spatial door to the white fog world at any time. Not only could he use it to hide, but he could also… devour the enemy’s attack.
Even the function of projecting quality weapons had much room for development and improvement. That day, he had randomly thrown cars, asphalt, roadblock rocks, and so on. That was because the situation was urgent and he could not care much about it. He could only make do. In fact, the structure and appearance of these things were relatively resistant and the acceleration effect was not very good.
The solution was also very simple—to order extremely dense metal rods like tungsten on Earth, with relatively low melting points, stable shapes, and suitable for enchantment. It would probably be an extremely good replacement for cars.
Due to its appearance, it could accelerate quickly, was convenient to project, and needed less time to shoot.
Multiple cycles of opening the door and dropping things would consume the time difference between the white fog world and Earth, causing the time anchors of the two worlds to gradually overlap. Therefore, the mass projection method to destroy everything could only be used at most three times, but that was calculated according to the consumption of the Valentine battle. If it was changed to a more effective and suitable metal rod, the number of times it could be used should increase greatly.
In fact, his train of thought did not have to be limited to quality projection.
The killing mechanism of mass projection was that an object of huge mass had been enchanted several times and collided with the ground at an ultra-high speed, producing a huge impact and killing power. The way to accelerate was to use gravity to accelerate. If he wanted to accelerate to enough speed, he needed to reach a sufficient height. If the height was not high enough, he had to use the teleportation door to repeatedly accelerate back and forth.
However, acceleration was only a method. Killing was the result.
In other words, as long as the lethality was enough… he could throw something else.
After all, the greatest advantage of this attack method was not power, but accuracy. It was difficult to intercept.
One had to know that Earth’s idea of a space-based weapon was also to project a few tons of tungsten rod into the target’s location from outer space. Of course, it did not directly throw down a large piece of metal. The tungsten rod was also equipped with extremely complicated parts like a propulsion device, a positioning device, and an insulation device to ensure that this kinetic weapon could accurately hit the target.
On the other hand, Master Kang did not have any concerns in this aspect at all. With a snap of his finger, the door opened and a quality weapon was thrown close to his face. It was 100% accurate. Moreover, when the projection rushed out of the white fog world, its speed had already risen to an extremely terrifying level. It arrived almost instantly. The enemy died on the spot and was impossible to predict and intercept.
From this, even on Earth, Kang De’s ability was a top-notch strategic weapon. What the f*ck, what the f*ck? They were all his younger brothers. There were firecrackers thrown in Capitol Peak and fireworks set off in the sky above the White House. It was useless even if the American Empire moved all the THAAD back to Washington.
Most importantly, Kang De could really throw something else.
Cosmetics flashed.
The most ancient treasures were endless precious artifacts. Master Kang could not throw such a cool thing, so it was good to throw some thermobaric bombs.
However…
“However, in the current situation, a mass projection attack is already enough. My intention is to deter and not destroy. I came to Goethe to end the war. If possible, I want the people over there to live better. It’s enough, not to help Goethe conquer the world and become another Twilight Dynasty.”
Kang De said, “After all, the only use of deterrence weapons is to obediently stay on the launcher… To be honest, I’m not too willing to make more peanut butter. After all, I’m such a righteous and benevolent person.”
The Autobot said nothing.
Then, Kang De took out the crimson scroll and opened his hands to the sky, “Therefore, Brother Dragon, what about the benefits and rewards? I have spatial ability. What about the time ability?”
“Good things happen in pairs.”
“Just give me something useful. I don’t expect the Time Stop Series, but you can’t not give me anything…”
As he rambled on, the Autobot asked, “Father, what’s the Time Stop Series?”
Kang De said seriously, “This is a series of stories. It’s about a very ordinary person who suddenly obtained an instrument to stop time one day. Therefore, he made time stop in the entire world and stopped this increasingly impetuous and utilitarian secular world. He walked in the paused world and looked at the tired faces who were running around. He did many things to relax everyone’s bodies and minds…”
The Autobot said in a muffled voice, “…Although I don’t understand, I know Father is lying.”
Kang De said with a change in expression, “How can you say that about your father? Even if I’m lying, it’s for your own good. This is called a white lie, just like how I was curious about where I came from when I was young. My father said that I was picked up from the street… This is completely a white lie!”
His iron son continued to expose him mercilessly, “But I think Father is very happy to lie.”
“Nonsense! Nonsense!” Kang De glared at him and said, “How can I be very happy when lying? It should be very painful! I’m a person appointed by the King of the Gods to be filled with righteousness and pity. I have an ultimatum…”
He flipped his hand and took out the crimson scroll. As soon as this magical scroll containing the divine power of Akatum touched him, it would flash with gorgeous light. Only he would do this.
Kang De said, “Look, this… this…”
Then, he could not continue. He raised the crimson scroll and instantly, light erupted. Then, it left his hand and flew into the air, rising into the air like a dazzling sun.
Kang De muttered, “Again?”
When the crimson scroll first acknowledged him, there was also a strange change in the white fog world. Then, Kang De grasped an “authority” regarding the white fog world. It was to use the power of time to anchor the time point of the white fog world again. In layman’s terms, it was to “refresh the map”.
Now…
Kang De looked at the scroll that rose into the air. His body shook, and a golden dial appeared in his eyes. The time divine power in his body began to circulate and resonate with the divine power of the crimson scroll, further affecting the entire white fog world.
The white fog around the area was covered in golden light.
The power from the King of Gods was due to this chaotic chaos.
“This is…”
Kang De looked up at the sky which was filled with dazzling light.
It was said that time and space were interdependent and inseparable. Therefore, Akatum was in charge of the dual divine duties of time and space. Just like at this moment, the divine power of time and space circulated in Kang De’s body.
Therefore, he could see the full appearance of the things extending into the endless void in the sky.
Not only did he see the shocking endless scenery divided by the river of time, but he also saw the essence and full appearance of this phenomenon.
He saw shocking great things that not only passed through time but also crossed space.
With the flow of time as the essence, it crossed Earth, the other world, and the white fog world.
“This is a…” Kang De muttered, “a scale…”
The Autobot also looked up, but it only saw a light flickering in the sky and a great power that made its heart palpitate. Apart from that, there was nothing else.
It asked, “Father, what did you say? What scale?”
Kang De did not answer. He looked at the balance in the sky in a daze that only he could see. His heart surged, and his eyes were excited as if he had guessed something.
This was because this balance crossed the three worlds.
The white fog world was the base and pillar in the middle.
The vast and great time and space were the beam, the hanging system, and the brake device.
The Earth and the other world were on the trays on both sides.
The balance was not equal.
One sank to the bottom, and the other rose into the air.
The heavier side was Earth, and the lighter side was the other world.
He also saw the simple and sacred scoreboard in the middle of the scale. It was engraved with symbols he could not understand, but he knew what the number the needle pointed at represented.
That was…
“Seven.”
It was the time flow ratio between Earth and the other world.
Kang De took a deep breath, then slowly stretched out his hand.
He stretched out his hand and held it in the air as if he was holding an extremely heavy weight. Then, he stretched his hand high.
The entire world was trembling slightly. The white fog was churning and shining. The white fog world between Earth and the other world was like a lever, a relay, and a counter.
The weight fell into the tray.
The beam slowly reversed, and the low became high, and the high became low.
Then, the heavier end was the other world, and the lighter end was Earth.
The scoreboard pointed at seven.
“Father, what did you do?”
The world shone and the world shook. It could not move the Autobot, but in the next moment, it realized that a certain change had happened. It was a very familiar change… It was similar to the battle of Valentine.
Therefore, the Autobot checked the shops by the road and compared them to its timer before coming to a conclusion.
“The time difference between the white fog world and Earth changed again, from two hours and 17 minutes to two hours and 16 minutes!” His iron son said, “The time anchor of the two worlds is close again! Father, what did you do?”
“Ah…”
Kang De still looked at the sky. The golden light gradually dissipated, and the balance turned to nothing. The crimson scroll fell from the sky and was grabbed by him. Kang De maintained this posture and was silent for a long time.
Then he smiled.
“I can probably rest now.”
A moment later, a black light flashed and the spatial door opened. Kang De returned to the other world and came to the quiet and empty backyard. He let the Autobot out. “Do you understand what I’m saying?”
His iron son said in a low voice, “Yes.”
Immediately, there was movement. The gorilla appeared like a ghost, “Kang De, you want to go home?”
Kang De was shocked. Seeing that it was the gorilla, he was relieved, “Yes, you came at the right time…”
The gorilla knew Kang De’s background and knew that he had another home in another world. Back then, he was on a deserted island and had no relatives. He was in despair day by day. The human heart was thinner than paper, and the gorilla could not speak. She had long been told everything by Kang De. Although the language was not very similar at that time, she would definitely understand if he spoke and made gestures.
Her eyes lit up at this. “Are you taking me there?”
“…I’m afraid not. It’s very dangerous.”
Similar experiments had been done many times. Once creatures from another world transmigrated, they would immediately die. His iron son was an exception. There were two possibilities. Firstly, he was a mechanical lifeform. Secondly, he was created by Kang De with the power of the Fire Thief, so he could transmigrate safely.
However, no matter which possibility it was, it had nothing to do with the gorilla.
The gorilla was very disappointed when she heard this.
“Be good, help me guard it. I’ll do an experiment.”
Kang De also reminded the gorilla. He had a cautious personality and had an example of a previous teleportation error, so he considered the worst situation and instructed the gorilla and his iron son.
“Then, I’ll leave first.”
“Yes, bring me something delicious.”
“Father, be careful on the way. Also, don’t teleport to any strange places this time.”
“…Fortunately, you’re not a jinx.”
“Ah? What’s that?”
Therefore, the spatial door opened and Kang De disappeared again.
Back in the white fog world, he continued to teleport.
Kang De crossed the void and returned home.
It was unknown if it was an illusion, but there was still a faint fragrance in the air.
Kang De did not open his eyes, but he knew that he was home. A car honked outside. The air was dry. The phone in his pocket returned to the service area and offered the text greetings of the mobile operator, the various Taobao merchants, and other suspicious numbers to the transmigrator who had just returned.
Kang De lay sprawled on the bed. Without getting up, he picked up his phone.
“Call me when you get back.”
Old Wang’s message.
Kang De smiled lightly and took a deep breath.
He did not call or get up. Instead, he lay on the bed, breathing and listening. He took his phone and set an alarm. Then he began to scan the news and scroll through Weibo.
He wanted to see what had happened in the past few days.
Then, he opened the [Beep—] novel site and cursed, “Why are there so few updates after so many days?”
Time passed quickly.
The alarm clock sounded.
It had been 35 minutes.
Kang De closed his eyes and circulated his Dragon God’s power. He could still use it. He opened the door and returned to the white fog world.
Then, he transmigrated back to the other world.
When he opened his eyes, the night sky was cold. His iron son and the gorilla were still waiting on the spot.
“Hi,” he asked. “How long has it been?”
The Autobot was silent for a moment before saying, “It’s not 245 minutes, let alone 1,715 minutes, but five minutes. Only five minutes have passed.”
“The time ratio has indeed reversed.”
“Congratulations, Father,” it said. “You can rest for a while.”
