Dead people.

Many people died.

Although it had already been burned to charcoal, its size could still be seen. Men, women, old people, children… The remains twisted, struggled, and were piled together.

This was… a massacre.

Kang De slowly exhaled.

His stomach… rolled.

He had seen dead people before. People who had been burned to death, hacked to death, knocked down, beaten to death, and blown up. There were many, many deaths. Moreover… he had personally done them.

At that time, he did not feel any physical discomfort.

He was very calm, very crazy, and very efficient in killing.

He split open the farmer's head, burned the knights loyal to Glory Sand, shot the sentries of the military camp, chased and killed the bandits who took advantage of the situation, and finally drove the tanker into the Glory Sand Manor.

Nobles, commoners, soldiers, bandits, beggars, and countless people had been killed by him. He had even stacked the corpses of the bandits who had taken advantage of the situation in the capital. In order to achieve the greatest intimidation effect, some of his methods could be called torture… Logically speaking, Kang De should be used to seeing death.

However, he did not.

Seeing an entire village burned to the ground, black smoke fluttering in the ruins, twisted corpses gathered together, and countless vengeful spirits wailing in all directions… At this moment, he felt extremely disgusted.

"Perhaps I have double standards."

Kang De said in a low voice, "But when I was the craziest, most bloodthirsty, and tyrannical, I did not take the initiative to attack the civilians of Glory Sand Town Town—even if many of them participated in the pursuit that night."

"There are no survivors."

The Autobot's voice slowly sounded. It was a little low and angry, "I can't understand… Many of these dead people are weaklings without any combat strength or threat. Why do they want to kill them?"

"Perhaps it's because the other party's leader is a bloodthirsty pervert. Perhaps this is the elves' occupation strategy. Perhaps there are other reasons we don't know… If we have to explain, this is war."

As Kang De replied, he bent down and touched the black dust on the ground. It was still warm.

He said in a low voice, "I didn't go far. There aren't many, so… let's go ask!"

A metallic sound sounded from the Hummer as if countless parts were vibrating. The Autobot's voice was not as calm and calm as usual, but there was a hint of killing intent.

It replied in a low voice, "I have the same intention."

It had worked hard to learn, enchant, make, and process these few days. The more elite weapons it had tempered and the more powerful ammunition it had created had to be useful, right?

Moreover, Father had said that if you had a share of joy and shared this joy with others, you would have two shares of joy. If you had a share of pain and brought it to others, you would be very happy to see others in pain. If the two canceled out, it was equivalent to throwing your pain to others.

Although he always felt that this was a twisted logic, when he saw this miserable village and these men, women, old, and young who had died in pain, the young Autobot felt that there was nothing wrong with throwing all the hardship, nervousness, and speechlessness he had suffered from his father's teasing these few days to the murderer.

Kang De looked at the burning corpses piled up one last time.

Glory Sand's experience completely changed his personality. He had a different perspective and comprehension of life and death. Therefore, he did not plan to collect the corpses of these people. It would take a lot of effort and time, and it would further reduce the probability of chasing after the murderer… In the end, death was death. Their spirituality had already left their bodies. What was left in the world was only a pile of rotting flesh and blood. Even if he buried them, what was the point?

If these dead people were in heaven, the souls who had died unjustly would definitely shout and beg him to hunt down those cruel murderers, not waste time gathering meaningless bones.

"Goethe people, this time, I'm on your side."

Kang De said in a low voice, "You'd better not disappoint me…"

The Hummer rumbled into action and drove out of the destroyed village.

The setting sun was like blood, and the sun was setting in the west. Before long, darkness would rule the ground. However, not only were there rampant and cruel executioners walking in the darkness but there were also executioners who hunted the darkness. Just as sin could happen under the sunlight, justice could stand in the darkness.

The Autobot said, "Father, look, hoofprints."

On the road north of the village, the ground knocked down messy hoofprints. They extended north, crossed the farmland, left the road, and headed deeper into the wilderness.

Kang De sat in the front passenger seat with boxes of ammunition in front of him. Magic light circulated on the yellowish-orange shells. He pressed the ammunition into the cartridges one by one and checked the condition of his weapons.

When he heard this, he stuck his head out of the car window and looked at the hoofprints on the ground. These were not horses' hooves. He had heard from the knight that the elves' light cavalry unit and the projection cavalry unit used tamed and modified spirit deer as mounts. Their size, speed, vigilance, and courage were not inferior to warhorses, but their dexterity was superior.

"There are not many. It's not a large group. Good news."

Kang De put the magazine that had been pressed into the pistol and said indifferently, "Chase after him and reason with him."

The tank accelerated and ran across the field. The space behind the driver's seat had already been covered. There was a crisp sound of mechanical change. The Autobot was brewing its logic.

The speed of the Hummer had already increased to the limit. It was all because the terrain here was relatively flat, so he could run without worry. The sky became darker and darker. The headlights lit up, and in the wilderness, only a dazzling pillar of light sped forward.

About 40 minutes later, he caught up to the target.

At this moment, the sky was not completely dark. There was still the afterglow of the setting sun. Kang De took out his binoculars. The lenses were enchanted with Low Light Vision. With the help of this night vision equipment, Kang De saw the surging deer herd ahead.

There were about 30 cavalrymen. Their cloaks fluttered and they carried spears and bows on their backs. They were all spirit deer and their bodies were not inferior to galloping horses. When Kang De saw them, this group of cavalry also discovered the monsters approaching from behind. After all, in the wilderness, the roar of the Hummer could be heard clearly, and the shining headlights were extremely eye-catching.

Therefore, the other party's cavalry immediately dispersed and turned around to wait with their bows.

As they turned around and faced this place, Kang De saw the other party's appearance clearly. He was muscular and burly. It was the style he had seen on the Holy Seal Islands. His sharp ears were very eye-catching.

It was undoubtedly an elf.

He silently heaved a sigh of relief.

The Autobot acutely noticed this small action. "Father, what's wrong?"

Kang De said indifferently, "I feel at ease. If I discover that the people who slaughtered the village are not elves, but humans, that will be too f*cking disgusting. It's simply disgusting."

The Autobot said in surprise, "Human? Why would humans do such a thing?"

Kang De said coldly, "Why can't humans do such a thing? Don't underestimate humans."

The Autobot still could not understand because he had not seen it with his own eyes or experienced it personally. Therefore, he could not imagine what motive humans had to kill their own kind.

"You might understand in the future… but I hope you never have to."

Kang De did not explain in detail, because this group of elves was already waiting solemnly. It was not the time to chat. He said, "Drive closer and be careful of the other party's magic and arrows. Turn on the loudspeaker. I'll ask first."

The Autobot said in surprise, "Ask what?"

"To be safe, I'll ask a few questions. After all, any possible situation will happen. The corpse is engraved with elf words. The hoofprint of the Elven War Deer was discovered in the north of the village, but this doesn't mean that the murderer is an elf. Perhaps it's someone else. These elves only happened to see this ruin and massacre."

The Autobot was even more surprised. "This…"

The simple child could not understand—there was actually such a thing?

"Although this probability is small, it's not impossible."

Kang De said indifferently, "I'm on Goethe's side because of my promise and have no personal hatred for the elves. I'm willing to help them fight fair and square, but I won't carelessly become someone else's blade."

In the end, he still remembered the elf adjutant captured on the Holy Seal Islands. The other party had reminded him to be careful of humans and even told him that the elves were not that bad.

To be honest, after seeing the courage and sacrifice of the elves on the Holy Seal Islands and experiencing the unforgettable betrayal of Glory Sand, in the current Kang De's mind, the image of the elves was even better than that of the Empire… This was really a huge irony.

The microphone reached down from above and Kang De said calmly, "Can you hear me? Elves. I'm from the village to the south. There was a massacre there. All the villagers were burned and killed. May I ask if it's related to you?"

The two sides were not close, but Kang De still heard the laughter coming from the wind. It was filled with mockery and pleasure, and there was even the lingering pleasure of killing.

This laughter was a wordless admission.

Slaughter and blood would blind the eyes of intelligent creatures… be it humans or elves.

Immediately after, he saw one of them draw his bow and nock an arrow. The arrow was like a meteor as it tore through the air.

An ice-blue cold light streaked through the sky. The Hummer suddenly started and nimbly dodged the arrow.

Kang De glanced at the ground not far away. The arrow was stuck diagonally. A small ice layer had actually formed on the surrounding surface. He sighed. "There's no need to ask."

As soon as he finished speaking, the roof behind the Hummer opened, and a combined artillery unit stretched out. Bang, bang, bang, bang, bang. A total of 12 Molotov cocktails soared into the sky. Every Molotov cocktail was engraved with fire enchantment. They swept into the air and whistled down towards the elf cavalry.

The elves were indeed elves! The divine archery race had no match in the world. Although the sky was dark, they still saw a black mass of projectiles falling here. At the order of the leader, more than ten people drew their bows and shot into the air. The arrows did not miss and hit, but they were Molotov cocktails!

The intense collision triggered the flame enchantment and shattered the fragile bottle. Thick flammable liquid poured down like rain and was ignited by the power of flames. In an instant, the sky lit up and a rain of fire fell!

Not to mention anything else, this appearance was extremely extraordinary. When the elves saw the fire rain falling from the sky, they were both shocked and angry. They thought that it was a fire spell and dodged and dispersed. The spirit deer also felt the heat descending and felt uneasy. After all, living beings were afraid of fire. This was their instinct.

At this moment, the Hummer accelerated.

There were 12 firing slots in the mortar team. 12 Molotov cocktails had just been projected. However, there were two or four joint bombs on both sides of the firing slots. They were modified by the enchantment of a small gas tank. The Hummer roared as the projection device continuously changed directions, high or low.

Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang!

Four explosions sounded as the small bombs flew out!

Due to the different firing mechanisms, the speed of the small explosion was far faster than the Molotov cocktail. When the fire rain descended and was in chaos, there were still elites who fired arrows, including the elf who shot the ice arrow.

However, there was no pack!

Three small explosions exploded on the spot, but explosions were never the most important killing method. As the fragments swept across and steel beads flew, even if they were not close, they still successfully left wounds on the bodies of some elves and spirit deer. The huge commotion of the explosion also made them feel even more chaotic. After being attacked, these elf troops followed the training manual to carry out magic defense, but they discovered that this was not a magic attack at all!

Most importantly, the last bomb had already quietly flown above their heads without anyone noticing!

This team was clearly light cavalry. They only had light armor and shields and won with speed and archery. They never fought the enemy head-on and instead roamed and fought. However, today, they encountered an enemy they had never encountered.

The unknown was the most terrifying—because one did not understand the other party's methods, let alone deal with them.

The air wave wreaked havoc, and fragments flew everywhere. This time, the damage was even greater. Fortunately, the elves had already spread out their formation earlier. Otherwise, this shot was enough to make them lose more than half of their combat strength. However, even so, this small explosion wave directly overturned a few elves, causing the dozen or so riders around to be either lightly or heavily injured. Every elf's body was covered in blood—but their nightmare had just begun.

This was because the previous two attacks… were both civilian weapons.

The Hummer was already approaching.

Firearms of various lengths poked out from the engine, the side, and the top. Dense and intertwining firepower suddenly unfolded. Flame bullets streaked red in the darkness. It was the color of the blooming flowers of death. Emerald green light appeared on the bodies of some elves and resisted the invasion of the bullets. However, in the next moment, they were greeted by larger bullets, and more elves fell like wheat.

The Hummer crashed into the enemy's formation, and the nightmare continued to spread. The strange alchemical chariot transformed into a five-meter-tall giant in a dazzling but extremely shocking manner. The rumbling battle axe in its hand swept past the trajectory of death and slashed an elf and the spirit deer away, causing blood to splatter through the sky.

Such a scene suffocated the elves. Incomprehensible but powerful attacks came wave after wave. These Twilight elite soldiers were used to running rampant in the world and considered themselves the hegemon of the world. In their hearts, their country's martial strength dominated the continent, and looked down on the various races. The so-called human countries, be it magic, craftsmanship, tactics, or even weapons, were simply like uncivilized barbarians compared to the great Twilight Dynasty.

But now…

Explosions, flames, incomprehensible but extremely terrifying weapons, and a steel giant that was like a divine creation, made them unprepared and inexplicably defeated and injured. The elves were completely stunned!

This was not a power that humans could possess! Definitely not!
