Age of Empires From Scratch - Chapter 101



[Chapter 101 David’s Free Time]

Marvel Cinematic Universe, Stuttgart, Germany.

“I say… Kneel down!”

The tall man wearing a stag-horn helmet gave a speech in the middle of a large group of kneeling people, until an old man stood up to protest.

“Look at this old guy, he is your role model!”

The scepter in his hand gathered a dazzling light, and then fired a beam of light towards the old man, but Steve, who suddenly appeared and blocked the old man, used a shield to bounce the beam back.

“Ah~!”

The man wearing a stag-horn helmet was knocked down by the beam he fired, which made him feel a little unhappy. He quickly stood up and looked at the man who suddenly appeared.

The tall, strong, ambitious and handsome man with a star-spangled butt did not wear the uniform with the star-spangled pattern today. He wore ordinary casual trousers with a leather jacket, but the round shield with the iconic pattern in his hand still betrayed his identity.

“A soldier.”

He learned all the information about potential threats from the men under his control, and quickly matched the man in front of him with one of them: a soldier who was enhanced with very backward technology decades ago.

In his mind, this soldier was no threat to him at all. It seemed that if he wanted to become the enemy’s prisoner, he needed to work harder…

Just as he was thinking this, the shield from the other side had already flown over. The shield infused with holy light was very fast and drew an arc in the air.

“?”

Before he could react, the tall man was hit by the Avenger’s Shield. The powerful holy light contained in the shield made his brain dizzy for a moment while hitting him.

“What’s going on? What kind of power is this? It seems to be different from the information I got?”

The tall man who couldn’t even stand steadily in the dizziness was rushed to by Steve the next second, and he pressed his hand wrapped in lightning on him, using the power of lightning to electrocute the enemy.

Steve looked at the Asgardian named Loki who was lying on the ground, smoking all over, and then looked at his right hand, which still had lightning that had not completely dissipated.

“This move is much more powerful than expected…” Then he lowered his head and looked at Loki who was lying on the ground. He soon realized that the other party was not seriously injured, and in just a moment, the other party had woken up from his coma.

Just when he was about to say something, deafening music came from the sky, and then a golden and red metal man landed beside Steve at high speed. Looking at Loki who slowly stood up, he showed all kinds of weapons on his armor: “Don’t move.”

“Mr. Stark.”

“Captain.” Seeing the other party raise his hands under the deterrence of his weapons, Tony Stark felt very satisfied: “You are arrested!”…

After a while, New York.

The world-famous prosperous city has completely turned into a battlefield. The Zetauri soldiers kept drilling out of the wormholes in the sky, frantically destroying the city and killing all the lives they could see.

Steve was wearing seemingly ordinary and outdated armor, holding Will’s newly made hammer of redemption, which was exactly the same as the hammer of judgment, and the hammer head was a blue-purple crystal.

Steve originally thought that the full body armor with crystal ore powder added, and the Hammer of Redemption that David gave Will time to build after confirming that Steve chose the path of the Paladin, would be useless in a short period of time. He did not expect that his world would usher in a huge crisis so soon.

Alien invasion!

Faced with this situation he had never encountered before, Steve deliberately returned to Winter Village, changed into armor he had never worn before, and took the Hammer of Redemption that he had just built and had never used himself, and went straight to New York.

The newly formed Avengers were very puzzled about where Steve’s equipment came from? But now was not the right time to chat, so they could only watch in wonder as Captain America suddenly turned into an American knight in the medieval style, holding a shield and a hammer and rushing towards the groups of Chitauri soldiers.

The light kept flashing, and the battle became more and more intense. Steve looked at the chaotic situation around him. He and his comrades were also dragged into a bitter battle by endless alien soldiers. He felt his own weakness.

Even if he had obtained the recognition of the Holy Light, he could only watch countless people lose their lives on the chaotic battlefield.

A sense of powerlessness surged from the bottom of his heart, but was quickly suppressed by Steve’s faith.

He tightened the shield in his left hand and continued to hold the Hammer of Redemption. He felt his limit and knew his weakness, but he still had no intention of retreating or even giving up.

At this moment, a beam of light descended from the void and shone on Steve, restoring all his lost strength. The gradually exhausted holy light was refilled and even became stronger than before.

Steve also realized something through this holy light. He raised the Hammer of Redemption in his hand high, and the beam of light descending from the void suddenly became several times thicker. Then countless light spots slowly fell from the sky, and the Avengers and the civilians in New York who were illuminated by these lights found that all their injuries disappeared.

The moon with strange light gradually appeared in the sky, and then the golden light was mixed with silver-white starlight, and a bald man in a yellow robe stood on the roof and looked at the sky full of strange visions not far away…

Azeroth, the Kingdom of Lordaeron, Hearthglen.

Tirion Fordring stood on the city wall. Since the Scourge began to wreak havoc on this land, he returned to his homeland.

When Arthas killed his father, King Menethil, and led the Scourge to destroy all life, Fordring took over Hearthglen again, which originally belonged to him.

Tirion Fordring had a huge reputation. Even though he had been deprived of his lordship, paladin status, and expelled from the country, when faced with terrible dangers, everyone still hoped that Fordring would lead them to face difficulties.

The soldiers of Hearthglen, the soldiers of the Kingdom of Lordaeron, and the paladins of the Knights of the Silver Hand gradually gathered in Fordring’s Hearthglen.

After Gavinrad, one of the first five paladins, and Uther, Arthas’s teacher, died at the hands of the corrupted prince of Lordaeron for unknown reasons, more paladins of the Silver Hand fled to Hearthglen.

“Did Saidan refuse?”

Looking at the letter handed over by a paladin, Tirion Fording sighed helplessly.

In fact, he didn’t care about Saidan Dathrohan’s accusation against him at the beginning. He attached great importance to the commander-in-chief of the Silver Hand Knights.

Because Dathrohan’s plan to attack Stratholme would not only cost him his life, but also his body would be occupied by the dreadlord, causing a large number of Silver Hand Knights to go astray.

He didn’t want the already limited human power to become more fragmented because of Dathrohan under the ravages of the Scourge. However, Fording couldn’t take care of Dathrohan at the moment. With the convenience of a high-powered telescope, he had seen a tide of Scourge soldiers rushing towards Hearthglen.

After walking back for a while, he looked at the other side of the wall: after careful planning, with the help of the dwarves and the efforts of the people of Hearthglen, a complete defense system has been built.

Especially the rows of artillery positions, which were made by the dwarves working overtime. These cannons are the key to whether Hearthglen can stop the Scourge.

In the distance, there are heavy artillery with more fierce firepower.

“Holy Light…” Fording wanted to say it out of habit, but just as he started, he realized that it was no longer the Holy Light that protected him this time, but steel and gunpowder: “I hope the effect is the same as I expected.”

Soon, the deafening sound of artillery kept echoing in Hearthglen. Standing on the wall, Fording looked at the smoke and dust in the distance, rising among the Scourge soldiers like a tide, and before they had time to dissipate, they were replaced by new smoke and dust.

Soon, the Scourge soldiers in sight had completely disappeared, replaced by explosions and dust that seemed to never stop…

When there was nothing to do, time seemed to have stopped. David thought about it and thought that instead of wasting time, he might as well learn more from the old alchemist Newton. Even though

Newton had told him that it was useless to just listen to the theory to get started with alchemy, David wanted to learn more than just alchemy. He was also willing to learn other knowledge.

“Stick fighting? Sword fighting? Fist and kick? Elven language? Minotaur language? Centaur language? Forging? Painting?” Newton said that he had traveled around for so many years and knew a lot of things besides alchemy. If David was willing to learn, he would also be willing to teach.

But after David asked carefully, he found that there was not much knowledge that interested him, and finally decided to continue to inquire about the customs and customs of various countries.

This time he specially drew a map of the Brunnia continent in his notebook, and at the same time sorted out the messy and unsystematic information that Newton said.

For example, information belonging to the Kingdom of Tilan was recorded under the column dedicated to the Kingdom of Tilan, while information that was difficult to classify was recorded under other or miscellaneous items.

Some uncertain information was marked with question marks. As a result, David recorded a lot of information about the Brunnia continent in a few days, constantly squeezing the value of the old alchemist Newton.

When he sorted out the information, Earl Stewart came to visit again. Earl

Sutton-Stewart came to David this time to take him and Sharon to attend the noble gathering in the Royal City of Tilan.

“This is Beram, my personal health consultant.” Earl Sutton-Stewart took the opportunity to introduce the man next to him to David and Sharon.

Unlike the previous two times when he was low-key and mixed in with the servants, Beram’s dress today was slightly more gorgeous and exquisite, and was clearly distinguished from the servants.

This time, Earl Stewart did not prepare dresses for David and Sharon, and reminded them that it would be best to wear the black leather armor to attend the party.
