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?
