156 Gods
When he saw the golden fire in his left eye turn into a golden dial, Kang De revealed a subtle expression.
His first thought was, F*ck, it’s even more flashy.
His second thought was, If I cosplay as Kurumi, I won’t even need colored contact lenses.
The third thought was, But why should I cosplay as Tokisaki Kurumi?
Then, he finally returned to his senses.
Moreover, he discovered that the entire world was different.
Or rather, he had changed.
He looked around and lacked a reference, so he picked up the mirror and threw it out. The mirror drew an arc in the air and fell to the ground under the effect of gravity.
However, its speed… was much slower.
Kang De took two steps forward and grabbed the mirror, his face revealing excitement.
With his current physical movement and nerve reflexes, not to mention grabbing a flying mirror, it was not a problem for him to even play Frisbee with himself—but this was different.
He felt that his speed had roughly doubled.
Kang De thought for a moment, then took out his phone and opened the stopwatch time function. He specially placed it on the table to prevent physical contact. Then, he stared at the stopwatch and silently counted.
Double… about double.
His time had doubled.
Time.
The golden dial in his left eye was already enough to prove this. After the experiment, it was like this.
This was the ability to control time.
It was said that abilities related to time could be ranked in the top three of the superpowers that the teenagers wanted to obtain the most—specifically Time Stop. It was unknown how many people had such childhood dreams.
There was also Time Acceleration.
He could sleep until five minutes before class.
He no longer had to worry about not finishing his homework the night before school started.
He could win so many awards as a track and field athlete.
He could do everything quickly.
The exam was very fast, the homework was very fast, and the work was very fast. Even for sex… Forget it.
In short, Time Acceleration.
—Rejoice! The one to inherit all superpowers, the handsome King of Time who will rule over the past and the future! His name is Kang De! This is the moment a new history is created!
Kang De twitched for a while, then calmed down.
Feeling the new power in his body, he mobilized it, used it, and urged it.
The speed of Time Acceleration was currently double, so could it be faster?
He held the mirror and reflected his face. He looked at the golden dial in his eyes and mobilized the ability he had just obtained, but after a while, there was no change.
Perhaps he had just obtained this ability, or perhaps his level was too low, the acceleration was only double.
Then, what about other abilities?
No.
He used his own method to test for a long time and did not discover any other use.
This was because his new ability followed the usual tradition—if it did not give him the instructions, he would think of a way to do it himself.
“Time…”
He was a little dissatisfied and perked up again because only his left eye had become the dial. His right eye was still surging flames, and the elements he spied from the golden fire… were two.
One was time.
The other… was most likely space.
This was because time and space were tightly integrated in a sense.
Since he could mobilize the power of time, the power of space was naturally the same. He looked at the mirror, closed his eyes, focused, and communicated, wanting to awaken and activate another ability.
As for spatial ability… teleportation?
However, nothing happened.
After all… there was no manual.
There was not even a situation explanation.
“…What’s going on?”
After thinking about it for a long time, he still could not figure it out. After the novelty passed, this feeling of scratching his ears and cheeks was the most annoying, especially when he was almost certain that there was such a thing, but he could not find it, let alone use it, nor could he guess the pattern and mechanism… This was very infuriating.
“…Forget it, I’ll take my time to find it. It’s already not bad to obtain this ability.”
The current Time Acceleration meant that his speed had doubled. Just from this, his combat strength had more than doubled, and his survival ability had doubled. This was undoubtedly very good news.

“Crimson scroll…”
You are reading story Civilization: Beyond Two Worlds at novel35.com
He picked up the scroll. Golden flames curled around it. When he found this thing on the Holy Seal Islands, he studied it left and right. It was all ordinary and did not have any abnormalities. After returning from Earth, everything changed. Not only was the golden fire burning, but he had also obtained one of two extremely powerful abilities.
Most importantly…
Tina had once said that the crimson scroll was a treasure that had been circulated in ancient times. The seven hero families each collected one scroll. In other words, including the one that appeared on the Holy Seal Islands and was not recorded in the history books, there were at least eight crimson scrolls in the world…
“Will every volume allow me to obtain strength…”
If that was the case, there was another reason to help Goethe.
This was because a crimson scroll was kept by the Tedrell family. At that time, as the hero who protected Goethe, he could reluctantly admit his identity as the Prince Consort of Goethe and read that scroll…
Just as he was thinking, he heard a knock on the door downstairs, “Uncle-Master? Uncle-Master?”
It was Hong San.
Kang De returned to his senses and looked at the mirror. Although this state was eye-catching, he could not let others see it easily, because it was too flashy. There was no need to pretend.
With a thought, he silently retracted it. It could be said that he could use it freely. The flow of time gathered, and the dial turned back into golden flames. Then, the flames converged and dissipated in his body. Everything returned to normal.
Kang De looked at his handsome appearance and nodded in satisfaction.
He walked to the window and looked down. “What’s wrong?”
As soon as he asked, he realized in surprise that the sky had already darkened. Previously, he had extracted the golden fire and felt its power. It was unknown how long he had been in a daze. Later on, he used his ability and immersed himself in it, not knowing how much time had passed.
Hong San took a few steps back and looked up at Kang De. Although his expression was as usual, his eyes were still a little dim and sad. What had happened these past few days, especially today, was complete torture to his soul.
He said, “Uncle-Master, it’s about time. The banquet is about to begin…”
Kang De frowned slightly. What was wrong with this fellow today? Even if he had some thoughts previously, after being pointed out by Kang De, he should know his place and understand that Kang De did not want to interact too much with the people of the Heaven and Earth Association now. Now, he was even inviting him to a banquet. What was wrong with him?
Although the sky was dark, there were also lights outside. When Hong San saw Kang De’s expression, he knew what he was thinking. He said softly, “Uncle-Master, I know you don’t like crowds, but Miss Leona is here. This…”
Kang De thought for a moment and waved his hand. “Forget it.”
No matter what, Leona was generous and gave a large number of resources to the Heaven and Earth Association. She was completely giving him face, so he could not avoid her when she came.
Moreover, this woman was sincere to Tina and could be said to be loyal. Although Kang De had thoughts and doubts about the engagement Tina had announced, human nature was really good. Although he said that there was a problem, he could not help but consider himself Tina’s husband. He naturally had to entertain his wife’s best friend.
Moreover, he had just obtained a new powerful ability and his mood had become very good. His previous displeasure was almost diluted, so he walked downstairs and opened the door. “Lead the way.”
A smile appeared on Hong San’s face as he nodded and bowed, “Yes.”
Kang De said indifferently, “Stand up straight and pay attention to your identity. Don’t let anyone see you.”
Hong San replied, “That’s nothing. Although you’re a military advisor and an elder of my sect, I’m respectful to you and respect my master. It’s very normal. No one will suspect anything.”
It was a very normal conversation. Kang De and Hong San were pretending that nothing had happened.
Outside had already become a sea of joy.
Apart from the quantity of alcohol, there was no limit to the others. Meat, vegetables, eggs, even candy cakes, and various drinks and fruits were sent up one by one. The street was lined with flowing banquets until the small square at the end. Everyone had smiles on their faces and was unrestrained—the pressure they were under was really too great and they urgently needed to vent.
Be it the pressure of the past or the pressure of the future.
Kang De saw Leona. The girl had changed into a dark blue dress and was wearing white lace gloves and a wide hat. She smiled at him.
“Good evening.”
Kang De came to her side. “You’re very beautiful.”
The girl blushed and looked at him warily. “What do you want to do?”
“…” Kang De was speechless, “I just want to praise you.”
The beautiful and noble girl had always attracted attention. Many boys were restless, but when they saw Kang De approaching, they knew the girl’s identity. After all, Lord Hong San had said it.
Therefore, friendly laughter and whistles sounded from the crowd.
The girl did not understand. “What are they doing?”
“It’s just a jeer. It’s a small matter,” Kang De replied casually. Suddenly, he was surprised, “What are they doing?”
The girl followed his gaze. It was a group of Goethe people gathered together in ethnic-looking clothes. They surrounded the fire, holding hands, singing, and dancing.
The elder held the basin and sprinkled the things in it into the fire, causing flames to surge into the sky.
“About that.”
The girl replied, “They’re offering sacrifices and prayers to the god they believe in.”
Kang De’s expression changed and he asked, “Who is it?”
Leona looked at him strangely. “The mainstream god that the Goethe people believe in is naturally the Sun God, Sulla. Why don’t you even know this?”
The gods.

Kang De was not interested in the gods earlier and did not ask Tina. She and the knight did not take the initiative to tell him. Perhaps in their hearts, this was common sense and was far away, so there was no need to explain.
Now he was interested.
Kang De thought for a moment and asked, “Which god controls time and space?”
Leona stared at him for a while. After confirming that the other party did not have any special intentions or had set a language trap, she said, “Although you’re from Cathay, you should at least understand common sense when you come to the continent… The god who controls time and space is naturally the leader of the gods, the Saint of Calamity, the Dragon of Time and Space, Akatum…”
