Civilization: Beyond Two Worlds-Chapter 446 - Revenge

446 Revenge

“The French? What did they do?”

“From the time, you should be able to see it on your side.”

“What?”

“In the sky.”

Kang De looked around and saw a black hole in the clouds in the north of Senegal. Accompanied by the roar of an approaching engine, with that huge body and long wingspan, he could vaguely see the four turbines under the wings. This speed and size were clearly not fighter jets. In terms of size…

“D*mn! Is this a f*cking strategic bomber?!” Kang De cursed, “The French are going to throw a nuclear bomb?”

Qin Mengjin did not know whether to laugh or cry. “Why are you thinking about nuclear bombs all day?”

Kang De replied matter-of-factly, “Because it’s like this in movies and games. Moreover, the French will always do some confusing actions. That’s what the British say.” 𝑓𝚛𝚎𝗲𝙬ℯ𝘣𝚗𝘰ν𝐞l. co𝗺

“…In short, no.”

“Then what’s inside? Molotov cocktail? Thermobaric bomb? The mother of bombs?”

“It’s a chemical agent to kill insects.”

“…” Kang De said in surprise, “Are they crazy? Is pesticide useful?”

These things ate rocks, sand, and metal. They could survive in the white fog world and even gather to become larger fusion beasts controlled by higher-level race consciousness.

—Now you’re telling me that pesticides are useful?

Alright, I know the zerglings are allergic to lemon juice, but you…

“They said it was useful.”

Qin Mengjin said, “After we discovered this sign, we asked the French and received such a reply. Not long after their national laboratory obtained the locust specimen, the bad news of a locust attack and the disappearance of people spread from the towns around Banjul. With the intention of immediately controlling the situation, we began to use the agricultural pesticide on the market to deal with the locusts. The effect was obvious.”

“Therefore, we made a prompt decision and immediately mobilized resources. We rented a plane and controlled Banjul. We only discovered their actions not long ago…”

At this point, the liaison officer sighed, “It’s understandable. After all, if this matter can’t be covered, the French government will all have to step down. After all, the matter of the locusts comes from the beginning. They believed Big Bob’s nonsense. Be it international pressure or public opinion, it’s impossible to let them go…”

Against the disaster and crisis of all humankind, what was terrifying was not them, but the governments responsible for leading and protecting the people and facing all challenges. They might do their own things or even act in private.

“Idiot!” Kang De shouted, “They’re really desperate. They should directly use a nuclear bomb to overturn Banjul. Even if you sprinkled pesticide, even if it’s useful, those locusts can clearly dig the ground. How useful can they be? They’re clearly overcautious, afraid that it won’t be easy to clean up Banjul if it explodes… They’re really despicable!”

The liaison officer said helplessly, “How can this decision be easy?”

Kang De frowned. He felt that something was wrong. “Pesticide… have you tried it?”

“We don’t know which pesticide the French use, but with the mainstream medicine we collect from the domestic market, it’s not very useful, but the French claim to be useful.”

Qin Mengjin said, “Since they’re certain, it should be useful…”

“Then they should put it in a missile and attack! Aren’t they sending planes?!”

“It’s unrealistic… Considering the strange organization and threat of this locust, they gave up on the idea of using a traditional piston agricultural plane. Instead, they rented a big guy from Evergreen International. It’s the one you saw. It’s not a strategic bomber, but a super air extinguisher modified by a Boeing 747.”

With the liaison officer’s explanation, Kang De used the Eagle Eye Technique and saw the full appearance of the plane.

“Evergreen-747-Supertanker. There are only two air fire trucks in the world. They can carry dozens of tons of firewater or flame retardants and be used to curb forest fires. They can fly at sea, travel at night, and be thrown at high altitudes. They can reach any corner of the world in 20 hours.”

As expected, it was in the style of a passenger plane. It was huge and beautiful as it soared freely in the air.

The liaison officer said, “The French also put in the effort. They used this air extinguisher to place dozens of tons of pesticide that covered the entire area around Banjul. Moreover, if it’s placed high in the air, it won’t be attacked by the locusts…”

“I say…”

“Huh?”

“How much is this plane?”

“Let me see… it’s about two billion yuan in Chinese currency. Why? Do you want to buy it?”

“No.” Kang De sighed. “I mean, the French will have to pay.”

As he spoke, this Boeing 747 had already approached the border of Banjul with a whistling sonata.

Under the spray of the special pressurization system, a strong liquid that was like air fog suddenly sprinkled out from the back of the fire extinguisher, spreading, rolling, and splashing down like a storm.

The territory of Gambia was a large plain, especially near Banjul. The terrain was extremely flat, but this plane still maintained a flying height of at least 300 meters, even if this distance would cause the waste of pesticides… It was probably safer. 300 meters on the ground was an unreachable height for the locusts.

—Stupid humans thought so.

At this moment, Kang De was at least 20 kilometers away from this plane.

He activated the Hima Eagle and advanced quickly.

In the next moment, the silver-gray wind flew up like a snowstorm and sprinkled into the air from the ground, raising a violent wind in Banjul. In the flying snow, the dense locusts gathered and condensed into a tornado that stretched from the ground to the air. Like huge demon pythons, they darted out from the ground and bit at the birds in the sky.

As Kang De observed with the Eagle Eye Technique, he took out his camera and turned on the camera mode.

He saw the violent wind sweep up the fog-like pesticide. A large number of locusts scattered and fell to the ground, but the huge entity condensed by more locusts rose from the ground and bit at this huge steel bird in all directions. He saw the Boeing plane modified by this passenger plane suddenly pull up the nose, but before the pesticide spread, the swarm of locusts that had suddenly climbed hundreds of meters had already collided!

Silver liquid instantly covered the head of the plane and was pasted on the windshield panel. It was unknown how many locusts had been shattered. Remnants splashed and scattered on the shell of the plane. The relative speed was not high. This level of impact would not penetrate the plane, but this was not the point. The point was not a face-to-face collision.

A terrifying scene that was enough to suffocate all the pilots in the world happened.

Four swarms of insects gathered into long pythons that swam in the air like flying snakes and surged into the four continuously spinning turbines of the plane!

As if they had collided with a meat grinder, large amounts of silver liquid surged out.

If it was ordinary insects, it might not have much of an impact, but these locusts were not organisms that ordinary people knew. Fragments of metal and rocks flowed in their bodily fluids.

In less than ten seconds, Kang De saw the engine flash with a faint flame, followed by rolling thick smoke. Violent flames continuously erupted from the four turbines, spreading, disintegrating, and shattering. The suddenly powerless plane began to fall quickly with the rolling thick smoke.

Kang De sent the photo to Qin Mengjin.

Amidst the crazy silver and gray storm that filled the sky and the green fog that was still spreading, a huge iron wing fell from the sky with thick smoke and flames. This scene was extremely exquisite and could probably win a prize.

The plane fell from the west side of Banjul and flattened hundreds of old brick houses in the area in one go. Then, it exploded. The violent explosion and flames raised a large number of pesticides stored into the air and spread around Banjul. Kang De stopped about eight kilometers away and looked at the strong smoke and fire.

...

He saw all the locusts in the city methodically move aside from the domain of pesticide dispersion. They gathered into silver snakes and drilled through the hard ground. When they returned to the ground, he heard a violent vibration echoing underground, as if it was an angry roar. Kang De stood on the giant eagle and listened to the echo of the ground with a wooden expression.

Then, the eagle retreated.

“Miss Qin.”

On the other end of the phone, Qin Mengjin took a deep breath. “I’m here.”

“High-power explosives, flamethrower fuel, oxygen tanks, personal protective devices, cars, and the pesticide formula in the hands of the French, as well as the finished product. The more the better.”

Kang De said coldly, “In addition, help me greet the mother of the French President.”

“…What’s wrong?”

“What do you think happened?” Kang De looked at the already empty Banjul. “The French drenched Big Bob and his little worms in feces on the buffet. What do you think they’ll do?”

Of course, they would eat in another restaurant!

“If they have the need to collect these materials and food, they’ll go elsewhere! The remaining places in Gambia, even the neighboring Senegal, Comoros, and even further!”

“Unbelievable! Why would the French do such a stupid thing?! Don’t you know that these insects know how to dig?! Why didn’t you remind them to stop when they discovered it?!”

...

Qin Mengjin sighed faintly. She seemed to want to say something, but she hesitated.

“So!” Kang De’s tone revealed a biting coldness, “How long do they want to argue?!”

After hanging up and pulling open the spatial door, Kang De returned to the basement of the Moroni Embassy.

His father was dozing on the sofa. When he saw his son, he was first surprised, but then he saw the seriousness on his face.

He asked, “What’s wrong?”

Kang De said in a low voice, “Get them to contact the country later and think of a way to send you away first.”

Kang Jinzhu said in surprise, “Why did it suddenly come to this?”

Kang De took a deep breath and wanted to explain, but in the end, he could not restrain himself. He punched the wall and there was a bang. The spider web spread and shattered, and dust fell from the ceiling.

The door was suddenly knocked open. Two armed police officers rushed in with guns. When they saw Kang De, they immediately put down their guns.

“I’m sorry.” Kang De retracted his fist. “I’ll pay.”

He walked out of the room and Kang Jinzhu followed. He went all the way to the ambassador’s office. The language of Comoros sounded. He pushed open the door and saw that the king was on the phone. Chakat II had treated the ambassador’s office as his temporary command center because the signal and line here were the best.

The king was originally giving orders with a tense expression. When he saw Kang De, he immediately revealed a silly smile like eight white teeth. He waved at Kang De and roared into the phone a few times before putting it down.

“My friend…” Before he could finish, he noticed Kang De’s expression, “What’s wrong?”

Kang De hesitated for a moment before finally deciding to tell him frankly.

“The situation has become even worse.”

The insect disaster in Banjul this time should have carried the burden of this mutated insect invasion with their own thoughts. Due to a long period of vigilance and conflict, and because the fire did not reach their door, they were temporarily watching and analyzing.

Due to their interests, the French were in a hurry to do something and were busy covering it up. They took action without permission and used a large fire extinguisher to sprinkle pesticide. Perhaps they had the intention to kill a large number of locusts, but they had underestimated the performance of these strange locusts. They had not obtained many results and had even poked a hornet’s nest. This meant that the relatively calm locust swarm that had been engrossed in Banjul might adopt a more radical strategy, because the effectiveness of the pesticide was enough to make the controller feel danger. This meant that the danger facing Comoros had greatly increased.

“These ignorant idiots!”

Kang De pounded on the table and cursed loudly.

He thought about it all the way and could not figure out why the French government would do such a stupid thing.

Suddenly, he heard a low laugh.

He looked up.

When the king heard his story, his expression was first curious, then uneasy, so much so that he was angry.

After that, it was calm.

He looked at Kang De and suddenly smiled. He shook his head and smiled until tears flowed.

“Why do I feel that they’re not stupid at all?”

The king of the small African countries opened his arms and revealed a mocking smile. It was unknown if he was mocking the wisdom of the large countries or his weakness.

“Didn’t they achieve their goal?” he said. “Didn’t they already prove that the pesticide is very effective? Didn’t they prove that they have a way to control the large-scale gathering of locusts?”

Kang De frowned and said, “But…”

“But what?” Chakat II rubbed his tears and smiled, “But insects can dig? Could it be that they can dig through the Indian Ocean, the Atlantic, the Mediterranean, or the Red Sea?”

“They can’t dig through, right? Clearly, they can’t, right? Then what does it have to do with them if the insects know how to dig? As long as they can be controlled, it means that there’s a weakness. Since there’s a weakness, it means that we can find more weaknesses. We’re not in a hurry to completely destroy them. We can slowly, appropriately, and steadily resolve this matter and dig out the secret behind it… and obtain enough benefits.”

“There’s no hurry at all.”

He smiled happily and opened his mouth, revealing his shining teeth, but his eyes were red.

“In the end, we’re only a group of wild dogs in a corner of the world.”

Tears slid across his brilliant smile. “We missed every technological change. The poorest and most backward continent is plagued and famine is rampant. War is endless. A total of more than a billion black people are poor and lazy. Together, they’re not as rich as the ten richest white people. The world can’t hear us. The West disdains us. They’ve bullied and insulted us for hundreds of years. Until now, who cares about the lives of black people?”

He leaned back on the sofa and smiled desolately.

“Me.”

The figure in front of him blocked the sunlight from the window.

The king looked at Kang De. Before he could speak, he was grabbed by the collar and pushed to the desk. He pressed his head against the table, picked up the phone, and pressed it to his face.

“What are you crying for?” Kang De said coldly. “Continue to call and arrange for the evacuation of your citizens. Continue to retreat them to Moroni. If Moroni can’t defend it, we’ll retreat again. My ancestors had more than 80,000 people walk 25,000 kilometers with their feet. You black people live in modern society. You have cars, resources, planes, and my help. Don’t you even know how to escape? Why are you crying? Is it useful?!”

“I don’t believe that I can’t defeat a white-skinned old pig after seeing all kinds of powerful battles.” Kang De’s face darkened, “Isn’t it just a group of locusts? Watch me blow them up!”

He called Qin Mengjin, who immediately said, “Kang De, we were about to call you…”

Kang De did not care what she said and immediately said, “Help me keep an eye on the satellite again. The weapons I want are faster. I’ll return to the country immediately to get the resources and cars. Also, I roughly know where Big Bob’s base is. Let that grandson hear it now!”

Previously, when he dug underground and was discovered by the locusts, before he left, he had already rushed extremely close. With his Phoenix Vision, he saw the life signal not far away. Those were probably the people who had been kidnapped.

Before teleporting away, he left a spatial coordinate.

Qin Mengjin shouted, “Kang De! Listen to me first!”

“What?”

On the other end of the phone, the liaison officer hesitated for two seconds before saying, “Just now, Big Bob contacted the French government… and conveyed his intention to negotiate to the five permanent members.”

Kang De sneered, “It’s indeed him… negotiating? What does he want?”

“Revenge.”
