Age of Empires From Scratch - Chapter 123



[Chapter 123 Krauser]

The ambulance finally rested in Winter Town for a night. Although the man named Pierre Newton was a bit long-winded, after the communication, the other party did not show any malice, but was just curious about the Cybertronians. In this case, the ambulance could accept it.

So, that night, Pierre Newton chatted with the ambulance in the cab of the ambulance all night, and soon became good friends.

The unexpected gain was that after dawn the next day, Pierre Newton, who had not rested all night, went directly to David who had just got up and expressed his hope to stay in Winter Town for a long time.

“Huh?”

“Since I came here, I think Winter Town is the place I have always longed for.” Newton really thought so, and it was not a casual polite remark.

Since he met David and followed David to Winter Town, he saw a lot of things that interested him.

He has been recording and studying the magical thing of crystal ore for a while. The more he studies, the more magical it feels, and he still has no way to truly “understand” this mineral. In other words, he has no way to use alchemy to transform a certain object into crystal ore.

In addition, the magical metal of cast iron was something he had never touched before; he also did not ignore the shield in the hand of the woman named Peggy Carter.

After arriving in Winter Town, he also saw a lot of food he had never seen before. He wanted to stay for a while to see the farmland in Winter Town and explore nearby. Maybe there were some strange things waiting for him to discover.

As a result, before he started to act, the ambulance suddenly appeared. Such a magical metal life surprised the old alchemist.

He had a kind of enlightenment that David’s Winter Town was probably not an ordinary town. Staying here might allow his alchemy to reach a higher level.

So, he decided not to leave!

“If you are willing to stay in Winter Town for a long time, I am of course very welcome.” Elias reminded David at the beginning that it would be better to recruit some alchemists and mages.

Mages are not considered for the time being. No reliable mages are willing to live in his remote place.

As for alchemists, he originally thought that he would study hard and work part-time. Unexpectedly, the arrival of the ambulance also had additional benefits, which made Newton think of living in Winter Town permanently.

“Then it’s settled. I’m going to continue talking to the ambulance about the thing called atoms.”

“…”

David waved his hand and watched Newton get into the cab of the ambulance again. The ambulance was parked next to David’s cabin that night.

Elias and Floyd, who watched the whole scene, didn’t know what to say at this time. They just looked at the “car” that the metal giant turned into curiously. It seemed to be called this name?

“My lord…”

Elias could still hold back, but Floyd really couldn’t control himself. Especially as a personal guard knight of Baron David Glamorgan, he found that he seemed to be unclear about many things.

“I know what you want to ask. I can only tell you that Winter Town is a little special, but what are the specific special features…” David glanced at Floyd and Elias: “This requires you to observe it yourself and then get the answer.”

Floyd stopped asking. He thought this was a test from the Baron and his future might be closely related to his final performance.

In comparison, Elias felt that this was the Baron’s caution against him. After all, he was only sent by the kingdom to assist and teach the new nobles, and his term of office was only one year.

It was impossible for the Baron of Glamorgan to tell him all the secrets of Winter Town.

It can even be said that the Baron of Glamorgan did not warn him not to pry into things he should not know, which was already a very generous performance.

After thinking for a few seconds, Elias made up his mind: Don’t ask anything, just do your job honestly! Otherwise, what if he knows too much and can’t leave in the end? He is still young and has many years to live.

“Go north as planned today…” David was about to ask Floyd to take two soldiers, and then take the last sign, and then set off to the Winter Forest in the north, when Leon came with his injured partner.

David said hello to Leon, and told Floyd to prepare things first, select the accompanying soldiers, and deal with this matter before setting off.

“By the way, we may camp in the forest this time, remember to bring enough supplies.”

“Sir, this kind of work can be left to the subordinates.” Floyd thought that this kind of hard work could be done by him and his soldiers, and there was no need for the Baron to accompany him personally.

“I want to help Laura catch a suitable pet.”

“Understood.”

Floyd and Elias did understand that this trip was not just to set up signs, but the Baron was going to hunt in the forest today.

In this era, going out hunting was a common activity for the nobles. As the lord of Winter Town, Baron Glamorgan could of course go out hunting to kill time.

Floyd took the order to make preparations, while Elias continued to stay by David’s side, and then watched Leon lead a strong, fierce man to the front.

After greeting each other, Leon introduced his partner to David: “This is Jack Krauser; this is the mayor here, Baron David Glamorgan.”

“Baron?” Krauser looked at the young man in front of him in surprise, and when he saw the other’s face, he secretly complained in his heart, “He is actually a pretty boy who is more handsome than Leon. Why do I always meet such people?”

“Didn’t I tell you before that I would take you to a special place?” Leon just told Krauser that he would take him to a special place, maybe he could cure his arm, but the specific situation had not been explained.

Krauser knew that Leon was a good man, and suddenly said that he could cure his arm, which meant that he had a certain degree of confidence, so he followed.

But this place looks like a very backward small village, and there is nothing special about it. Although he couldn’t figure out how he suddenly came to this place.

As Leon explained, Krauser realized that this was no longer Earth, and the two of them were not even in the world they originally lived in.

“You mean, this is another world?”

“Yes.”

Krauser’s eyes seemed to be looking at a mentally retarded person. Leon could only describe some of his experiences and emphasized that there were magical powers in this world.

“You said you could cure my arm, and you were referring to those mysterious powers?” Krauser still had some doubts. Although he had seen the magic and power of the biochemical virus, Leon should not be talking about the biochemical virus, but the mysterious power similar to magic, right? He was a little suspicious whether this Leon was pretended by someone else?

“Let me explain next!”

Ever since Krauser appeared, David has been observing this strong and tall man.

Compared with the handsome Leon, Krauser is the kind of warrior with exposed edges. Anyone who sees him for the first time can feel the dangerous aura emanating from the inside out.

To put it bluntly, this guy doesn’t look like a good person at first glance.

However, David doesn’t care about these, because Krauser is a very pure warrior: his life is to take tasks, complete tasks, and then take new tasks. As for what the task is? What is the deeper impact? Would it be immoral? He didn’t care.

For David, what he lacked most at the moment was such a pure thug.

So when he learned that Krauser had not faked his death and ran to Wesker, he readily agreed to Leon’s request to help Krauser check his injuries. The real purpose was to show the magical power he had in front of Krauser, so as to attract him to surrender.

“It’s this kind of power.”

David held the golden sacred light in his palm. Although he already knew it, it was the first time that Leon saw it with his own eyes, and he fell into a stagnation.

Krauser couldn’t help but reach out to touch the light, especially his severely injured and almost crippled left arm, which actually felt a faint itchy feeling.

Elias beside him widened his eyes and stared at the back of Lord Glamorgan with surprise. He only knew today that this Baron Glamorgan, in addition to studying alchemy, actually possessed mysterious power.

“What kind of power is this? It looks a bit like the light magic used by the Lumière priests?”

The thought just arose and he suppressed it. He kept muttering in his heart, “Don’t ask, don’t ask if you shouldn’t ask.” He tried hard to control his facial expression, only his eyes turned uncontrollably to that side…

Clausa didn’t need to be as entangled as Elias. He stared at the light ball in front of him with wide eyes, and carefully felt the changes in his body.

“I feel that my body has become much more comfortable. Is it an illusion?”

“No, your body is indeed affected, especially your left arm, which is slowly recovering its vitality.”

The sudden voice startled Leon and Clausa. The two turned their heads and looked at the yellow Hummer next to them.

Leon and Clausa noticed the Hummer just now, but they didn’t know much about the situation in Winter Town. Although it was a bit strange to have a Hummer rescue vehicle parked in such a backward village, they didn’t get too entangled.

But when the yellow Hummer emergency vehicle turned into a tall metal giant with a familiar voice, Krauser could no longer control his emotions: “Watfuck?”

Leon was also startled. He thought it was the old man sitting in the car who was talking, but he never expected that it was the car that was talking.

“What the hell is this?” Then he seemed to remember something and looked at the ambulance with an incredible face: “This… is it a Transformer?”
