Chapter 211: The Battle on the Berlin Air Defense Tower
Two days later, air raid tower in the East Side of Berlin.
Karl stood on the top of the control tower, overlooking the city of Berlin below, and what came into view was a magnificent picture.
The veins of the entire city shine with a unique brilliance under the morning sun.
The wide boulevards are like the arteries of the city, crisscrossing and closely connecting every corner of the city, with vehicles flowing continuously on the roads.
The bustling crowds of pedestrians are like blood flowing in the veins, providing prosperity and vitality to the city.
The ancient buildings and modern skyscrapers along the street complement each other, giving people a feeling of time and space confusion.
The Spree River winds through the city, and the river water ripples golden in the sun, making this a famous industrial city in Central Europe.
It adds a bit of freshness and tranquility, with the Brandenburg Gate standing tall in the distance.
Even in the early morning, you can vaguely see tourists coming and going and checking in and taking photos there.
"What a beautiful city." Carl exclaimed sincerely. At this moment, he was not wearing any makeup and was playing the role of Carl Hohenzollern, not Theodora Grindelwald.
Cedric, who was also not wearing a golden mask, nodded in agreement when he heard this.
"It's really beautiful. I once read in a book that the introduction to this city said that Berlin can be called the entire Central European region."
“One of the oldest and most classical cities, it is truly beautiful.”
"But unfortunately, this beauty seems to have a flaw."
"Did you see anything?" Carl looked at Cedric in surprise.
Cedric withdrew his gaze from the city below, looked at Carl, thought for a while, and pointed to an open space in the center of the city.
Said seriously.
"It is there, if I am not mistaken, that there once stood a high wall, dividing the entire city in two."
"It also divides the country represented by this city into two different camps, although the wall has disappeared."
“But that empty space, like a scar formed when a wound has just healed, remains in the center of the city.”
“It ruins all the beauty of this place.”
"Very good answer." Carl looked at Cedric with satisfaction, even though the other party's pumpkin brain only had a single-core processor.
But fortunately, the single-core performance of the processor is strong enough, so as long as he doesn't consider the problem of getting along with others, Cedric's learning speed is still very impressive.
Whether it was the vast history of the Muggle world or the complex and difficult philosophy, he could quickly gain a preliminary grasp of it.
One of the reasons why I am still a little dull and stupid is that I have been studying for too short a time.
On the other hand, Carl also discovered that the other party seemed to be a little dependent on him, and this behavior was unconscious.
It could be due to trust, or it could be due to some other reasons.
But it doesn’t matter. Carl is confident that he will live long enough and have enough time to educate the other party slowly.
Of course, the premise is that his heart is not exhausted, he thought so in his heart, but when his eyes looked at Cedric again.
He couldn't help but smile and sigh, because he found that in his past life, he had never had such great patience with anyone.
After thinking about this, he looked in the direction where Cedric had just pointed and spoke softly.
"In fact, history sometimes has such a symmetrical beauty. About half a century ago, this concrete monster under our feet."
"It's still a standard military fortress. The place where we are standing now is the turret of the twin 128mm anti-aircraft guns."
"The fire from this building illuminated the sky above the entire city of Berlin, announcing the destruction of the city and the empire behind it."
"It was the end of one war, but the beginning of another."
"And just two years ago, the wall standing on that empty lot was torn down by an angry crowd, and another war came to an end."
"One city, two wars. It's really amazing. I just don't know if the end of this war will herald the beginning of a new war."
Like a bard, Carl was asking the sky with deep emotion in the suburbs of this city.
Cedric scratched his head in confusion, thought for a long time, and finally spoke honestly.
"I don't quite understand what you mean, but I think war is always bad."
"No, I'm not very satisfied with this answer." Carl looked back at Cedric and said seriously while shaking his head.
“War brings death and destruction, but it can also solve problems in an instant that would normally take 10 or even a century to solve.”
"After all, it was just a general outbreak of social contradictions. Some people called the person who started the war a demon."
"No one ever thought that he was voted into office by the angry people in this city."
"Ideals can never end wars, and hungry and angry people are always fertile ground for dictators."
After saying these words, Karl waved at Cedric and pointed to the stairs.
"Okay, Carl's history class ends here. Cedric, you can go change your clothes after class."
"Remember not to wear the mask crookedly again. You looked really funny that day. Let's go quickly. I have to change my clothes too."
“Got it.” Cedric nodded in agreement obediently, but when he was about to leave, he looked back at Karl unfamiliarly.
With doubt and a hint of desire in his eyes, Karl looked at the other person and reached out to grab him.
Then he unbuttoned his collar with one hand, looked at the other person strangely, and deliberately changed to a girl's voice and asked in a "gentle" tone.
"Handsome Mr. Diggory, do you have any questions that you haven't answered, or is there something that has caught your attention?"
"What do you want to see? Do you want me to help you change my clothes?"
"Ah???" Cedric was confused at first, and then he saw Carl's open collar, revealing his snow-white skin and well-trained chest muscles.
He quickly waved his hands and denied loudly.
“No! No!! No!!”
"No, I just want you to tell me what role I need to play today and what the topic of your speech is."
"After all, you said I was your personal assistant, so I should have some idea of what you were going to do next. How could I be so disgusting?"
"Besides, what's so interesting about your upper body? It's not like I haven't seen it before."
"What did you say?!" Carl grabbed Cedric's ear angrily, saying that his good brother did not respect his body shape.
Seemingly very angry, he grabbed the other person's ear and yelled loudly with his mouth close to his.
"All you have to do next is to maintain a serious image to alleviate the image of you as a starving ghost who only cares about eating in the minds of those wizards at the banquet that day."
"As for the content of the speech, didn't you understand it? This city has witnessed the end of two wars."
"And I'm going to bring him a third war."
