Age of Empires From Scratch - Chapter 173



[Chapter 173 The Swan Family Moved to Winter Town]

The arrival of the Diggers in Winter Town has an immediate effect on the speed of construction in Winter Town. In just a few days, the Winter Fortress, which was originally only vaguely visible, has already taken shape.

At this rate, it will take less than a month for the Diggers to complete the construction of the core part of Winter Town, and then carpenters and other craftsmen will decorate the interior, and then David can consider officially moving into this new home.

Because the speed was unexpectedly fast, even Van Cleef sighed: “You should have brought the Diggers earlier.”

If Van Cleef had known the Diggers’ abilities earlier, he would have even given a more ambitious design plan. Anyway, with the cooperation of the Diggers, he firmly believed that everyone could live in a new house in the fall.

“There is no way to force this kind of thing.”

If Winter Town had not been upgraded, David’s gold finger would not have been upgraded.

Without the upgrade, he would not have been able to go to Azeroth. If he had not gone to Azeroth, he would not have known that he could actually borrow part of Azeroth’s authority and mobilize such a huge amount of holy light.

Then he could not activate the Cybertron body, let alone have the ability to revive or create a digger.

These things are linked to each other, and he has been moving forward in this direction, and only then did he get the current help.

Looking up at Arcee who was circling in the air and then flying away, David knew that Arcee was on a routine patrol.

Since Arcee had the airplane mode, most of the patrol work in Winter Town has been contracted by her, but this does not mean that the soldiers can relax.

Floyd and Gareth Stanton are not satisfied with the ability of these soldiers, and they will train these young people hard whenever they have free time.

Lord Glamorgan has made it clear that they want to train and cultivate the Winter Knights, not the Winter Infantry or the Winter Militia.

“Look at your appearance? Where do you look like a knight?”

Although the soldiers would complain privately, “I am not a knight!”

But they did not dare to be lazy during training, and they worked hard to complete various trainings, especially when their gun instructor Jack Krauser would often train with them by the two knights, they felt that they had no reason to relax.

Moreover, for these young people, training them as knights also gives them a brighter future in a way. What

Lord Baron Glamorgan wants is the Winter Knights. The Knights cannot always have such a small number of people. It will definitely expand in the future, right?

When the expansion occurs, some people will be promoted, right? Then, can those who perform well win the status of a knight?

Thinking that they may get rid of their status as pawns and become noble knights, these young people are full of motivation.

When David came back from the construction site and observed the temporary military camp, he saw a group of young people… plus Klausa, who were screaming and doing various training.

The amount of training was huge, and even Klausa, a special soldier who had recovered his physical peak, could not bear it.

Fortunately, he followed Sylvanas to learn hunter knowledge for a while, and Pierre Newton provided a means to extract arcane energy, so his physical fitness was improved by arcane energy.

David went to see it on purpose. Pierre used a special tool made by alchemy to pour arcane energy into clean water. Then, people who knew how to mobilize arcane energy drank the clean water with arcane energy.

When drinking water, the energy in the water was mobilized and stored by oneself, so when drinking water to replenish arcane energy, it should not be disturbed.

This way of obtaining arcane energy seemed similar to David’s direct infusion of holy light into a person’s body, but there was a huge difference in essence.

Even if the person who was infused with holy light lacked talent, the holy light that David infused would honestly stay in the other person’s body and play a certain role, such as automatically helping the person who was infused to recover.

If a person who absorbs arcane energy in this way does not have the relevant talent, the arcane energy will not be “absorbed” or “stored” after entering the body, but will slowly dissipate and turn back into scattered ownerless energy.

Therefore, even with the method of collecting and absorbing arcane energy invented by alchemists, it is still not easy to become a spellcaster.

After watching the soldiers’ training for a while, David also looked at the training schedule of the Knights.

According to the training plan of Flores and Gareth Stanton, all members of the Winter Knights are still in the first phase of training.

That is, first polish the body, and cultivate a strong will and tolerance to pain through harsh training.

In addition, Lord Baron Glamorgan wants a knight order, not ordinary soldiers, so the amount of training in this first phase is amazing. Under normal circumstances, pharmacists and alchemists are needed to assist.

But since they began to learn the Holy Light, the two knights suddenly discovered that in Winter Town, even without the help of pharmacists and alchemists, they can train soldiers boldly without worrying about training the soldiers badly.

Liadrin, the Holy Light priest, is the biggest guarantee.

If the Winter Knights mentioned by Lord Baron Glamorgan were just a beautiful wish, now the two knights have seen the real feasibility.

The two of them even began to think, can they train the Winter Knights into a knight group where all members master the Holy Light?

When they talked with Liadrin, they knew that there was indeed such a powerful knight group in other places. The man named Tirion Fording, who they occasionally met, was a powerful paladin and one of the founders of the knight group. He was still the commander-in-chief of the knight group.

By the way, the two knights were popularized by Liadrin again, “The great Lord David Glamorgan is the incarnation of the Holy Light. As knights loyal to Lord Glamorgan, how can they not understand the Holy Light?”

So, after the daytime training every day, except for the soldiers who had to patrol at night, they would be pulled together by Liadrin to learn the knowledge of the Holy Light.

Regardless of whether they could understand it or not, they would write it down first.

Since Liadrin began to spread the knowledge of the Holy Light to the Winter Knights, David also knew that his newly formed knight group actually had the tendency to develop into a group of paladins.

He had no objection to this.

Even when Renault Mograine and Sally Whitemane came to Winter Town again a few days later, he also sent them to the Winter Knights to act as instructors.

Renault Mograine is an authentic Paladin who has received various relevant teachings since childhood. He knows best how to train Paladins.

Sally Whitemane is a powerful Holy Light priest who is very clear about the Holy Light doctrine and can also share Liadrin’s pressure.

Under the protection of the two Holy Light priests and the personal participation of the real Paladins in the teaching, the training schedule of the Winter Knights has doubled.

The last time it was longer was when Krauser became an instructor and added a lot of hot weapon training.

Now, looking at the training plan of the Winter Knights, if all are completed.

Then, these knights in Winter Town will become Paladins who are proficient in cold and hot weapons, can wear heavy armor to go up and down the mountains and seas, and also know a lot of modern military vehicle driving knowledge. Yes

, the relatively idle Arcee finally joined in and taught these prospective knights how to drive cars, motorcycles and airplanes.

In order to facilitate teaching, Arcee and Ratchet returned to the Transformers world and helped transport several vehicles: including three Humvee armored vehicles, five motorcycles, a Black Hawk helicopter and a Harrier fighter.

Looking at this pile of military vehicles, not only David was confused, but all the new recruits of the Winter Knights were confused. They felt that they would not be able to get rid of the identity of new recruits without three to five years.

Just as David was watching the progress of the construction site change day by day, the training schedule of the Winter Knights was getting longer and longer, and it seemed that there was no end date.

Laura and Sylvanas finally came back.

To David’s surprise, Laura and Sylvanas did not come back alone. The two of them even brought Elizabeth Swan with them, and asked David if they could bring more people to settle in Winter Town?

“Of course, what happened?”

While Laura was explaining the situation to David, Will had already started to help Elizabeth with the “migration” work.

So David soon met Elizabeth’s father, Governor Weatherby Swan.

Governor Weatherby did not come here alone. There were many people around him. Judging from the attire of these people, they seemed to be servants and family servants of Governor Weatherby.

“Elizabeth and her father have encountered some troubles.”

As Laura quickly narrated, David quickly figured out what was going on.

Laura and Sylvanas went to the Caribbean World for a tour. As the host, Elizabeth Swan took the initiative to assume the responsibility of a tour guide.

In addition, this woman had an adventurous heart. The three women directly got a ship and took a group of sailors to go out to sea.

During this period, some interesting things happened, and some infuriating things happened, such as Lord Beckett, who ran from the British mainland to Port Royal and claimed that the Swan family colluded with pirates.

Laura, who knew the subsequent plot, remembered that Governor Weatherby was killed by this Lord Beckett. She got along well with Elizabeth and did not want to watch Elizabeth lose her father, so she persuaded Elizabeth to take her father away from Port Royal, a place of right and wrong, and settle in Winter Town.

Elizabeth certainly agreed with this suggestion with both hands and feet. She had long looked down on the backward, ignorant and dirty Port Royal.

So, the Swan family moved to Winter Town.
