[Chapter 158: Winter Town, a Summer Resort]
“Gwen Stacy?” The one who called out in surprise was not David or Mark, but Peter.
His reaction also attracted the attention of the girl named Gwen opposite: “What’s wrong?”
“No, nothing, I have a friend with the same name.”
“That must be a very beautiful girl.” After hearing the other party’s explanation, Gwen Stacy did not continue to ask more. It’s
just the same name, which is not a strange thing.
In comparison, she was more curious about this place called Winter Town. What kind of town is this? What kind of world is this?
Although from the surroundings, it seems to be a very remote and backward town.
However, the beautiful natural scenery is still very attractive. If you can go back and forth freely, then it is also a great choice to come here for an outing, vacation, and relaxation.
Several people introduced each other, and David also told the two new young people about the general situation of Winter Town.
The geographical situation of the Kingdom of Tilan, the Northern Plains, and Winter Town.
David also mentioned the forests, vast rivers, grasslands and harsh winters. Although the winters here are not easy, it is a great summer resort in the summer.
He led a few people into the town and told the two people that there are many “outsiders” like them in Winter Town, including Mark Watney in front of them. The
two young people also introduced their origins in more detail. For example, Peter Parker said that he lived in Queens, New York, and was a high school student.
Gwen Stacy said that she was also a New Yorker and a high school student.
After a few people walked into the town while chatting, the two new young people began to look at the local residents around them, and soon noticed that most people were walking north.
Looking slightly to the north, both of them saw that there was a construction site to the north of the town: “What are they building there?”
“The real Winter Town.” David explained to the two of them: “You can see that my place is still very primitive now, mainly because Winter Town was established not long ago, and these wooden houses are just temporary residences.”
“I see.” While speaking, Gwen found that soldiers wearing full body armor appeared and lined up to run out of the village.
Looking at this group of fully armed and heavily armored “knights”, Gwen and Peter had a feeling of being in ancient times. However, in addition to wearing armor, these soldiers also carried rifles behind them. What kind of strange combination is this?
Just when he was about to ask, he saw two soldiers who did not join the running. The fully armed soldiers rode on a very modern motorcycle and drove out of the town.
“…”
Gwen was stunned, while Peter pointed at the two motorcycles and soldiers going away and asked David: “Are those two also from other worlds like us?”
“The car is!” David answered Peter’s question with a smile: “The soldiers riding the bike are not.”
“What does this mean?” What do you mean by the car is? Does it mean that the two cars were brought from other worlds?
Just when he was about to ask more clearly, he saw a pink and purple motorcycle slowly passing by, and there was no passenger on it.
When passing by David, Peter and Gwen heard a clear female voice coming from the motorcycle: “Good morning, David.”
“Good morning, Arcee.”
“Elias is looking for you.”
“I know.”
David had already seen Elias, and the etiquette officer was walking towards him quickly.
Today he got up earlier than usual, so Elias was unable to wait for David today. At this time, he saw the baron leading a few people back from outside the town, and guessed in his heart, “Is it to pick up these two people who came from nowhere?” Although he
had the answer in his heart, Elias still didn’t plan to ask any details and did his job honestly.
“My lord.”
“Good morning, Elias.” David, who knew why he came here, took the opportunity to look at the two newcomers beside him: “Have you had breakfast?”
Peter and Gwen nodded to indicate that they had had breakfast, and then saw the young mayor say something to the person who just came over that they couldn’t understand at all.
Then the man walked towards the cafeteria. When Peter and Gwen passed by there just now, they already knew that the big wooden house was the cafeteria of the town.
“What you just said is the language of this world?”
“Brenian Common Language, or the Common Language of Brunnian Humans.”
“Human Common Language?” Gwen keenly noticed the key point: “Does it mean that there are other intelligent races in this world?”
Just when she was about to ask what other intelligent races there were in this world, she suddenly saw Sylvanas passing by: “Is that… an elf?”
Sylvanas had a good hearing, and she had also learned English by herself before, so she looked over here after hearing it.
Recently, she often went out hunting with Laura. She recognized the strength of Laura, the Holy Light Ranger, and also knew that there were many people in Winter Town, who actually came from different worlds.
Seeing David’s situation at this time, she guessed that there were “newcomers”.
Seeing David was entertaining the two newcomers, Sylvanas did not come up to disturb them. After taking a few glances, she greeted David and then took care of her own business.
During the time she lived in Winter Town, Sylvanas had nothing serious to do, so she had to find something to do to pass the time.
Going hunting in the forest with Laura is a good way to pass the time, but you can’t hunt every day.
So, when David asked Sylvanas to help guide the old hunter Addis so that Addis could learn hunter skills better, Sylvanas did not refuse.
But she made it clear that Addis was too old, and she didn’t know if she could teach him to be a qualified hunter.
David didn’t care about qualified or unqualified hunters. He hoped that Sylvanas would focus on teaching Addis how to use energy.
At first, Sylvanas didn’t think Addis could master arcane energy, and her judgment was indeed correct.
Addis was too old, his body and mind had long passed their peak, and he was not a super genius. It was almost impossible for him to enter the mysterious field at this age.
But he had David to help him cheat! He
directly infused Addis with some holy light, allowing Addis’ body to slowly recover under the warmth of the holy light.
If Addis could learn how to use the holy light, or through the holy light infused by David, further gain the recognition of the holy light and become a true holy light user, then his body could not only return to its peak, but even go to a higher level. What
David asked Sylvanas to teach was actually the skills of using energy, especially the skills of using hunter skills.
After Sylvanas figured out the details, she showed a lot of interest in the job. She thought she could take the opportunity to study the special profession of Winter Town, the Holy Light Hunter.
Following David’s advice, if Addis succeeds, he can be considered a Holy Light Hunter.
In fact, Addis originally wanted to be a pure hunter. He taught himself hunter knowledge for a period of time, but unfortunately he failed to successfully “change his job”. Instead, Alfie, who practiced by the way, showed good potential and attracted Sylvanas’ attention.
Because of Alfie’s teaching by the way, David saw that she liked to teach people so much, and even threw Klaussar to the Ranger General, saying: “One is teaching, two or three are teaching, there is no difference.”
“…”
In fact, in addition to Sylvanas, Liadrin is also helping to instruct Addis on how to better mobilize and use the Holy Light, and at the same time teaching him to correctly perceive the Holy Light.
In the eyes of Liadrin, an orthodox Holy Light priest, relying on Lord David Glamorgan to instill the Holy Light is not a long-term choice. The correct approach is to truly comprehend this power.
However, Addis didn’t have much talent for perceiving the Holy Light, especially when Liadrin said, “If you really can’t understand the Holy Light, then think about Lord Glamorgan, the incarnation of the Holy Light.”
Addis: “…” David,
who didn’t know how Liadrin usually taught Addis, was introducing the “fellows” in Winter Town to the two newcomers.
Transformers, Azeroth’s high elves, mages, etc., which originally only existed in various fantasy works, can be seen in Winter Town.
Peter and Gwen were very excited to hear this. If the two hadn’t remembered that they still had to go to school, they would definitely live in Winter Town for a while and get to know those magical beings.
At the same time, after learning that there were so many magical beings in this place, Peter didn’t care so much about Mark exposing his secret identity.
Compared with Transformers, high elves, and arcane mages, the identity of Spider-Man was nothing special.
He even felt very happy in his heart because there was one more place where he could reveal secrets to others. According to David, he could travel back and forth between the two worlds at any time, and this place seemed to be very suitable to be his secret base.
As for the girl with the same name as the girl he liked, he felt a strange sense of familiarity, even though they were strangers…
When the two decided to leave together, Peter laughed and guessed: “Maybe we are from the same world.”
“In that case, I must meet the girl with the same name as me.” Gwen waved goodbye to Peter, waved to David and Mark, and then disappeared as a shadow.
David, who watched Gwen and Peter leave one after another, finally asked the question he had been holding back for a long time: “This Gwen Stacy looks so familiar…”
“Gwen Stacy in the third part of the old trilogy, haven’t you seen that version of Spider-Man?”
David was stunned, and then he “searched” for the corresponding picture in the corner of his memory: “Gwen is in the old trilogy? I have no impression of her at all!”
