[Chapter 237: The New Megatron]

The destruction of the Pretender One means that the satellite launch plan was aborted.

Tony Stark carefully analyzed all the information sent back by the Pretender One in his laboratory, including all the image data before it was destroyed by the golden light, as well as various data detected.

Combining these data and images, Tony was able to obtain more accurate information, allowing David to have a more detailed understanding of the “thing” that destroyed the Pretender One.

“Is it a weapon of the Evernight Empire?”

“I don’t know. Enid said she didn’t know that the Evernight Empire had launched similar equipment or weapons.” Laura deliberately went to inquire about Enid’s opinion, and the dark elf said that she didn’t know that the Evernight Empire had such technology.

Of course, Enid’s words can only be used as a reference, and cannot be believed completely, because previous events have proved that the upper elves of the dark elves have concealed many things from the ordinary dark elves below.

Then, it is not strange to secretly launch some advanced satellites and weapons facilities.

“Where’s Cecil?”

“Cecil has already set out for the Lost Land, which is the wild land west of the Holy Kingdom of Gaunt.” Cecil had just set out. He was going to take a look around the Lost Land, wanting to find those compatriots who left the Evernight Empire a few years ago, and ask them if they knew something and left the Evernight Empire.

In addition to wanting to know more of the “truth”, Cecil also deliberately went to the Lost Land to expose his whereabouts to the Evernight Empire, so that the Evernight Empire would think that Cecil and his sister had fled to the Lost Land, reducing their attention to the Winter Town area.

This is a good thing for Cecil and his sister Enid, because the Evernight Empire will not chase the dark elves who escaped to the Lost Land endlessly, probably because there are many dark elves there, coupled with the harsh environment and complex terrain, especially there are many maze-like caves and tunnels, which makes it very difficult to hunt down specific targets.

It is precisely because of these reasons that the Lost Land has become the first choice for dark elves to take refuge after leaving the Evernight Empire.

However, Cecil and Enid did not want to settle in the Lost Land like their compatriots. They thought Wintertown was a better choice. The siblings, who were used to a comfortable life, seriously doubted whether they could stand the terrible living environment in the Lost Land.

Moreover, the lord of Wintertown, Baron David Glamorgan, did not seem to object to the long-term residence of the dark elves in Wintertown.

“So be it!”

The satellite plan was aborted, but the Decepticon capture plan was still proceeding normally.

Seeing that there was nothing urgent to deal with around him, David took some time and was led by an ambulance to the Transformers world.

Then, with the help of Optimus Prime, he figured out the specific location of Megatron’s body. Finally, with the special ability of the Hermit Warrior and some assistance from the Decepticons, David successfully sneaked into the secret facility and brought Megatron’s body back to Wintertown.

The whole process was uneventful, and David himself wanted to complain: “For this process, no one would watch it if it was made into a movie.”

Anyway, Megatron’s body was retrieved. Next, David would wait for Fording to come over, and then he could go to Azeroth to resurrect Megatron.

“Speaking of which, the reconstruction of Lordaeron doesn’t seem to be going smoothly!”

Fording would come to Winter Town regularly to ensure that the two sides maintained normal contact and exchanged some information and intelligence during the period; occasionally, he would bring back or send back people from the Azeroth world such as Jaina, Sylvanas, and Raynor.

So although David hadn’t been there for a while, he still had enough understanding of the situation in the Kingdom of Lordaeron.

The harm of the Scourge is not just as simple as turning living people into undead.

Wherever the undead Scourge passes, it will be polluted and become a dead land, and these places seriously polluted by the power of death will also affect the creatures living on them, corroding them into undead creatures.

This kind of pollution is still difficult to eliminate. In the original history of Azeroth, the East Wilder area ravaged by the Scourge was originally the richest area in Lordaeron. In addition to the capital of Lordaeron, large cities such as Stratholme and Andorhal are located on this land.

The entire East Wilder has countless farmlands and is the main grain production area of the Kingdom of Lordaeron.

However, after the Scourge of Undead ravaged the area for several years, the entire East Wilder region became a dead land, and was later renamed the Plague Land, no longer prosperous and beautiful.

Now, because of David’s interference, Fording knew the plot in advance and made a series of arrangements, which only reduced the degree of pollution. A large amount of death power still remained on the land of the entire Kingdom of Lordaeron.

In order to eliminate these death forces, not only the paladins of the Knights of the Silver Hand and the priests of the Holy Light Sect were busy all day long, but Lordaeron also asked Dalaran for help and tried every means to contact some druids.

Even so, it was only to control the pollution. If you want to completely eliminate the death power in the Lordaeron area, it may take several years to complete.

In this case, even the restoration of the Royal City of Lordaeron and the succession ceremony of the new queen were forced to be postponed.

“The succession ceremony will not be later than next autumn at the latest.”

Fording refers to the time in Winter Town, and after returning this time, he clearly stated that after David completed the reconstruction of Snowforest Castle, he would lend the Digger to the Kingdom of Lordaeron.

Of course, it is impossible for Winter Town to help with such a huge project as repairing the capital of Lordaeron for free.

The Kingdom of Lordaeron will pay the corresponding amount, and Quel’Thalas, Dalaran and Stormwind Kingdom, as allies of Lordaeron or friendly countries with special connections, will also help pay part of the amount.

These rewards do not necessarily have to be all gold, silver and jewelry. Various metals, minerals, cloth, silk or other materials can be converted and paid to Winter Town according to market prices.

“Speaking of which, Winter Town will become Winter City?”

“According to the news sent back by Elias, the upgrade to Winter City is already a certainty. King Abelson and the ministers are discussing some other things. Once it is confirmed, the news and appointment documents will be sent to Winter Town together.”

With the development of Winter Town, especially with more and more “new things” appearing, David no longer has to hide everything.

For example, communication equipment that facilitates everyone to contact, basically everyone has one in their hands to ensure that they can find someone at any time when necessary.

Although Elias only returned to the Royal City of Tiran alone, he actually kept in touch with Winter Town.

In case of emergency, the communicator can be used to call for help, and Winter Town can rush to Elias Parker as quickly as possible.

Therefore, when the capital of Tilan just confirmed that David’s Winter Town would be upgraded to Winter City, David himself got the news immediately, even though he was in the most remote border town of the Kingdom of Tilan.

“Is your title going to change too?”

“Yes, Earl!”

Not a marquis, one level lower than Dudley Morgan, the lord of Iron Tree Castle, probably because they think he is too young, and he has not been promoted to a noble for a long time.

If he is promoted directly to a marquis, as the war between Winter City and the orcs continues, David’s merits will accumulate more and more.

What should be done when the time comes to reward?

Should David be directly named the Duke of Winter?

I am afraid that no king would like to see such a duke who holds real power and has troops outside, let alone one who is “created” by himself.

“I don’t think you can keep this earldom for too long.”

Fording looked at David. After spending so much time together, everyone around him could see what David was thinking. After all, he was not good at hiding himself.

Fortunately, he hid in a remote border. If he was in the capital, his rebellious heart would have been noticed by Abelson long ago. In that case, David might have embarked on the path of “rebellion” long ago.

How could he, as he is now, pretend to be a noble lord of the Kingdom of Tilan and openly suggest to His Majesty the King that the idle young and middle-aged population in the Kingdom of Tilan be forcibly relocated to the northern plains?

“This time, the earldom should last for a while, right?” With

the population migration and the development of the entire northern plains, David felt that he would manage the earldom of the Kingdom of Tilan for a few years. After the entire north is developed and built into a prosperous and advanced area, it would be the right time to go further.

Apart from anything else, at least the Winter Knights must be truly established before considering conquering the four directions, right?

Now there are only fifty people in total, and there are twenty recruits among them. What kind of knights is it? Even if all these fifty people are elite and can serve as officers, they still need to be supplemented with soldiers, right?

Including the Spartan Heavy Infantry Regiment, there are only more than 300 people at present. What can this number of people do? The Spartan III can be put on the agenda.

After today, Winter Town… or Winter City, will have a new organization, that is, the Decepticons who will soon join Winter Town.

David has not decided whether to form a separate team for the Decepticons? Or to mix them with the Winter Knights and the Spartan Heavy Infantry.

Considering that the Decepticons are all military vehicles, mixing them seems to be the best solution.

“Resurrection! My warrior!”

The huge energy borrowed from a sleepyhead allowed David to easily rekindle Megatron’s fire, and at the same time left a core instruction to be loyal to himself during the “programming”.

“Fight for you, my leader!”

The resurrected Megatron returned to his classic appearance, while retaining his original tough character and wisdom. The only difference is that the resurrected or reborn Megatron firmly believes that following David is the true future of all Cybertronians.

PS: In Transformers G1, when giving new Transformers souls and personalities, some core instructions can be preset. Before opening the book, I reviewed Transformers G1 and the movie. Don’t accuse me of making it up!
