Age of Empires From Scratch - Chapter 217



[Chapter 217: Changes in Winter Town]

What exactly is the so-called power of water?

David experimented with curiosity and soon found that when he swung the spear, the position of the spear blade seemed to bring up waves of water.

This stream of water can play the role of impact, pressure or cutting according to David’s ideas.

“It feels like there is a little more water flow effect…”

Apart from that, he didn’t feel anything special. Maybe he can try it in the Winter River later, where there is a lot of water.

Putting the spear back into the storage bracelet that has been expanded to five cubic meters, David was thinking about what to bring while collecting weapons.

The Holy Light Hunter and bullets must be carried with him, as well as the Hammer of Judgment, which are David’s personal weapons.

There is nothing else that must be brought. As for the bow and arrow…

The bow and arrow in his hand was given to him by Laura. It is a hunting bow made of modern technology and materials, and its power is still good.

Combined with the holy light he mastered to perform some skills such as holy light shooting, the power is not bad.

So after hesitating for a few seconds, he decided to bring it.

Unexpectedly, Laura suddenly reached out and pressed the hunting bow.

“What?”

“It’s time to upgrade your hunting bow, right?”

“You want me to use alchemy to upgrade this hunting bow? Just like the spear?” David suddenly thought this was a good idea. He found that alchemy can not only change the shape and properties of objects at will, but also merge two equipment with different properties. Isn’t

this a perfect equipment enhancement?

However, it seems that there are not many suitable materials to enhance the hunting bow? You can’t take out the fragments of Frostmourne and use them as enhancement materials, right?

“You’re thinking wrong, I mean you can replace the bowstring.”

“Ah?”

As Laura explained, David realized that with the arrival of the orb spider, there is a stable silk fabric in Winter Town.

The silk of the orb spider can not only be used to make various clothes, shoes and socks, but also can be used to make weapons because of its characteristics.

“And Peter Parker also contributed the technology of making spider silk. By combining the silk of the orb-silk spider with Peter’s existing technology in this area, a kind of silk thread with high toughness and strength was made.”

By mixing this silk thread into various materials, a more powerful, stronger and more durable bowstring can be made. Currently, Sylvanas, Addis and even Krauser, who are good at using bows and arrows in Winter Town, all use this new bowstring.

Only Lord David, because he usually either throws a hammer to hit people or pulls out a gun to “BIU” people, of course, more often releases a huge amount of holy light that can scare people to death.

Although he insists on practicing archery, he doesn’t use it much in combat.

“So that’s it!”

In the past six months, Winter Town seemed to have completed the construction of various infrastructures and finally had the appearance of a town.

But the development in secret was even more amazing.

The crystal mine engine has reached the third generation, proving that Sheldon, Leonard, Howard and Raj have invested a lot of time and energy in this matter.

In addition, with the increase of the “weird” members of Winter Town, the acquisition of resources has become more abundant, and some equipment has also been upgraded.

For example, the bowstring is a very inconspicuous item, but it will have an important impact on the combat power of Winter Town.

Bows made of new materials can shoot faster, farther, and more powerful arrows, and their service life is greatly enhanced. Hunters in Winter Town will benefit from this.

This is just a part of the changes. There are many other changes in Winter Town, which David usually ignores.

Today, I just learned about it from Laura.

For example, Addis’s body has recovered very well. After eating the golden apple, his body has returned to its peak, and his control over the Holy Light has become stronger and stronger.

If nothing unexpected happens, Winter Town will soon be able to add a real Holy Light hunter.

Krausa’s strength is also steadily improving. Now he is no longer a drag in the Winter Knights and can only serve as a specific type of instructor. He can even be regarded as the first real hunter in Winter Town, and his performance has even been recognized by Sylvanas.

Hearing Laura’s evaluation, David felt that he could assign some tasks to Krausa appropriately, such as this time to explore the World Pillar in the north, and he could take Krausa with him.

In addition to Krauser, the only person who can become a real hunter in Winter Town is Alfie, the half-elf adopted by Addis.

Because of the situation in Winter Town, Alfie does not need to hide her racial identity here. After all, Sylvanas and Liadrin wander around with pointed ears all day long, and no one dares to trouble them.

In addition, there are Transformers, a group of life forms that are very different in Winter Town, so Alfie, a half-elf, is not noticeable here at all.

He lives a relaxed and happy life every day. He usually learns hunter skills and occasionally goes hunting in the forest to practice the various knowledge he has learned.

Because of his good mentality and good talent, his strength has been steadily improving. It is estimated that as he grows older, it is a natural thing for him to become an excellent hunter.

In addition to these people, Gareth Stanton and Floyd are practicing as paladins. Both of them are very perseverant. They did not choose the way of “infusing” the Holy Light, first learning how to master the Holy Light, and then slowly comprehending the Holy Light, and then being truly recognized by the Holy Light.

Instead, they chose the relatively traditional Paladin training method, so Renault Mograine has been acting as their instructor.

According to Renault, these two knights have a strong will and excellent character, and becoming a Paladin is also just a matter of time.

In addition, with the ambulance that has been comprehending in the garage every day recently, it is said that the last layer of window paper has not been broken, and the combat effectiveness of Winter Town seems to be ushering in a surge.

This is just the beginning. Krauser and Alfie becoming hunters means that the knowledge of hunters has been steadily inherited in Winter Town.

Once Gareth Stanton and Floyd become paladins, the trend of all the Knights of Winter becoming paladins will become a trend.

At that time, a group of Knights of Winter composed of hunters and paladins will be wearing more advanced power armor, accompanied by military chaplains. They

will ride on a transport ship powered by a crystal engine with many Transformers to the battle site, and there will also be a frigate that is also powered by crystal and has a crystal defense layer attached to it.

Further away, there is a huge space battleship. Although it is dark and unclear, and even its shape is questionable, David has reserved a place for it.

Thinking of that scene, David couldn’t control his saliva.

“Slurp~”

Wiping the corner of his mouth, David fell asleep with a beautiful expectation for the future.

The next day, David, who had a good dream all night, got up in high spirits.

He did not show any discomfort because of dreaming too much, and even because of the stimulation of those pictures, he was full of energy.

However, many things can’t be rushed. For example, he fantasizes about the powerful Winter Army rushing to the front line, but the reality is that Weatherby Swan reports to David that Winter Town is currently developing well and the population has increased significantly, but the public security problem has shown some signs, and the town’s sanitation has begun to decline.

“…”

In the past, the living area of Winter Town was relatively small, and there were not many residents, most of whom were concentrated under the eyes of the lord.

So David asked residents to use toilets and dump garbage at designated locations, and there was no resistance from the residents.

Over time, everyone has developed good habits, so the sanitation of Winter Town was very good in the early days of its construction.

Now every household has its own toilet, and there is no need to go to public toilets or empty urine buckets. Just throw the garbage in the designated trash can, which is simpler than before, and there is naturally no reason not to comply.

But it is not the case for later people.

They have become accustomed to doing whatever they want, and no one used to care about such things, which has led to many cases of urinating and littering in Winter Town recently.

As David’s eyes turned to Snowfield Castle and Frost Post, the soldiers of the Winter Knights patrolled far away, and the number of patrols in the town was much less than before, which led to a lack of sufficient and authorized supervisors, making those people more arbitrary.

“So, the establishment of a security team must be put on the agenda.”

“Well, I see.”

David had never thought that the establishment of the public security and police team in Winter Town was not because of fights or murders. It

was actually because of “trivial matters” such as littering and urinating and defecating in public .

It sounds like a trivial matter that can be ignored, but he really doesn’t want the Winter Town he built to be filled with the smell of feces, urine and garbage like those cities in Iron Tree Castle.

David thought about it and found that there were not many suitable candidates. Only Mark met the requirements of being stationed in Winter Town and having a certain combat effectiveness to ensure that he could suppress the troublemakers when necessary without hurting them.

Mark, who has been a shaman for a while, should be able to control the strength of the discharge, leaving a deep impression on the disobedient guys without actually hurting them.

The only problem is that Mark will be on his way back to Earth soon, and it is not convenient for him to come to Winter Town frequently on the spaceship.

In other words, Mark will be “away” from Winter Town for a while, so David still has to find a suitable sheriff.

“By the way, Squirtle seems to be able to do this job.”

If anyone litters or urinates or defecates anywhere, Squirtle can spray them in the face with water; and scattering Squirtle throughout Winter Town can also prevent fires?

Just as David was thinking, Mark suddenly ran over and asked David with surprise: “What have you done recently?”

“Ah?”
