[Chapter 366 Kryptonian Invasion]
Bring Gwen, Thor, Jane Foster, and Jane’s assistant Daisy Louise, and Dr. Eric Selvig back to Winter City. The
sudden increase in the number of people was a small accident. Jane Foster and Dr. Eric Selvig, as scientists, wanted to go to Winter City to conduct some research. Such opportunities are rare.
After confirming that Lord David did not mind, they came to Winter City with a bunch of instruments – thanks to Thor, a powerful free labor force, they would not be able to move so many instruments at once.
“Wow!”
Jane’s assistant, Daisy Louise, who was not bankrupt, held some equipment and looked around curiously.
“What a beautiful city.”
She and Selvig were both in Winter City for the first time. Jane had been here once before, but David was busy at the Winter Festival and only said hello to Jane.
Jane just came in a hurry that time, took a general look and left. This time she can stay in Winter City for a while longer.
“Let’s go, I’ll take you to the hotel first.”
These people just came to Winter City for vacation and to conduct research work. They didn’t need to arrange separate accommodation. It was convenient for everyone to stay in the Winter Hotel.
Because they appeared at the main entrance of Winter Fortress, it was not far from the entrance of Winter Hotel and could be reached in a few steps.
By the way, they could also better visit the majestic fortress walls, the wide streets around, the increasingly dense houses across the street, and the Cathedral of Light in the other direction.
Compared with the previous few months, the population of Winter City has now exploded and it is no longer so deserted. People can be seen coming and going on the streets at any time.
“It’s become much more lively here.”
“Yes, the population has increased a hundred times since the last time you came.”
Hearing this number, several people were very surprised, and even Thor asked curiously: “Why have so many people increased?”
“The capital of Tiran was attacked by the Temple, and the entire city was destroyed. The people here are basically residents of the original capital of Tiran.”
“The entire city was destroyed?” Thor is also a battle-hardened warrior. He has experienced countless battles, big and small, but he has never really experienced such a thing as destroying the entire city directly: “It sounds like the Temple is a very evil organization.”
“For the people of the Kingdom of Tiran, it is indeed the case.”
After arriving at the Winter Hotel and arranging accommodation for several people, David separated from them.
From now on, whether Thor is spending time with Jane or helping Jane and Dr. Selvig with some research and sampling work, David does not need to follow him.
As long as he can find Thor when he needs him, David specially gave Thor a communicator dedicated to Winter City.
Then he went to find Arcee, and after making sure that Arcee had solved all the problems and completed the transformation mode of VF-27 Lucifer, he also included her in the next team list.
“It feels like preparing for a dungeon and recruiting specific teammates.”
David felt that Gwen’s feeling was normal, because these things were indeed “dungeons”. If he could successfully pass the dungeon of “Kryptonian Invasion”, he would be able to obtain rewards such as Kryptonian subordinates and Kryptonian technology, and continue to expand his Winter City.
After arranging the preparations, the next step was to wait for news from Clark.
However, there was no movement from Clark. If Clark hadn’t come to say hello to him occasionally, he would even suspect that there was something wrong with the plot and Clark had been killed by General Zod?
During this time, the Winter Alchemy Workshop tinkered with the design drawings of the new power armor and built a basic framework.
It is said that Howard went to the Cybertron area every day to solve some technical details of the vehicle transformation, which was just named the Super Heavy Cavalry System.
Once he solved those problems, the design drawings and basic framework of the Super Heavy Cavalry System would be finalized, and then the prototype would be manufactured.
At this rate, perhaps the Tilan Knights have not yet completed the training course planned by Sylvanas. These new armors specially made for the Tilan Knights have been made. I wonder how much combat effectiveness the Tilan Knights, which can only be regarded as semi-finished products, can exert with this set of equipment?
Seeing Howard tinkering with the prototype enthusiastically and enthusiastically, Dr. Otto Octavius, who had just joined Winter City not long ago, was also humbly learning and giving some suggestions from time to time. David began to hope that this new set of armor could be made earlier.
At this time, Clarisse, who had said that she would go back to discuss with her partners, came back.
She seemed very excited. Although she was trying her best to control herself, her expression still betrayed her true thoughts.
“I told my partners about Winter City. They didn’t believe it at first, but after I tried my best to persuade them, they were finally willing to believe what I said.”
In fact, Clarisse’s partners just said, “If Clarisse can take them to see the so-called Winter City with their own eyes, they will believe her outrageous words! “
‘
Clarice came here to ask David’s permission.
“Oh, it’s not a big deal. Of course you can bring your friends to visit.”
“Thank you!”
Watching Clarice happily leave again, David felt that he had mastered some kind of ability.
“It seems that the reward given by Clarice is similar to Clark’s, both are some kind of ability… Is it teleportation?”
Clarice’s code name is Flash, and her mutant superpower is space teleportation.
According to the comic setting, Clarice’s maximum teleportation distance is from the earth to the moon. In addition, when Clarice develops her ability to the extreme, she can open a portal to a parallel universe.
However, the Flash in front of him obviously does not have such a strong ability. According to his memory, the distance of this Flash’s teleportation is not that far, and even the closing of the portal cannot be controlled at will. It is only the initial level of mastering his ability.
“To what extent can I use it?”
David has the ability to travel to other worlds to a certain extent. Will he be strengthened to some extent by getting Flash’s superpower this time?
As a result, he experimented for a while and found that he could open a golden light gate like Flash, and at the same time he could condense this space energy into the shape of a dart or a spear and throw it out.
In addition to being able to open a portal far away from himself like Flash, he can also use darts and spears to attack.
This kind of dart and spear with space power has extremely strong lethality and can easily cut or even crush most objects.
“Uh…”
David looked at the golden energy with space power in his hand, and he found that he seemed to be able to pretend to be a one-eyed Wuwukai.
He clenched his hands, and the golden energy dissipated directly.
He did not feel any changes in the energy in his body. The energy source of this ability seemed to be the universe itself, not himself.
“I remember that the energy of many mutants comes from the universe itself or a certain energy plane.”
For example, Cyclops and his brothers, the red energy released by these people did not come from themselves, they just extracted energy from the surroundings and then released this energy through themselves.
“If I can use this ability to extract energy from the universe to strengthen myself, will I become more powerful?”
David couldn’t stop thinking about it. Fortunately, Clarice showed up with her companions in time, otherwise David himself didn’t know how much his imagination would grow and expand.
“This is Bobby Drake, you can also call him Iceman.” Clarice saw David standing in front of her and immediately introduced her companions to the lord in front of her.
First, she introduced the bearded man next to him, and then introduced the female companion next to David.
“This is Kitty Pryde.”
“What else?”
“What?”
“Doesn’t this person have a special title like you and Iceman?” David knew who the person in front of him was, and he just made a joke to ease the atmosphere.
After all, Phantom Cat was quite famous in his previous life.
“Phantom Cat, but you can just call me Kitty.”
“This is the Lord of Winter City, David, Duke of Glamorgan.”
After introducing both parties, David welcomed the two guests and prepared to take them around in person.
However, just as he was about to introduce his own Castle Glamorgan to them, Clark came.
“General Zod is here.”
As soon as Clark opened his mouth, David realized that the task of taking these mutants to visit Winter City had to be handed over to others.
At the same time, he took out the communicator and contacted Thor and Arcee, asking them to meet at the main entrance of Winter Fortress.
“I’m sorry, it seems that I can’t take you to visit Winter City in person.”
“We can just walk around by ourselves.” Clarisse didn’t know what David was going to do, but judging from the posture, it should be something important, right?
Just as they were thinking this, a big man wearing armor and holding a short-handled warhammer suddenly fell from the sky, scaring several mutants.
“Where are the enemies?”
“We are just about to go over there, wait a minute, Arcee will be here soon…” Before David finished speaking, he saw a pink VF-27 Lucifer rushing straight towards them from the air.
Several mutants thought it was an enemy attack, but fortunately David reacted quickly and explained in time that it was his companions who were coming, and several mutants who did not know the truth stopped in time.
But when they saw a huge fighter plane suddenly turned into a robot when it was about to land, and before they could see the appearance of the robot clearly, it turned into a female human standing in front of them, and they fell into a daze.
Iceman and Phantom Cat raised the same question at the same time: “What kind of world have we come to?”
