Age of Empires From Scratch - Chapter 392



[Chapter 392: Mutants Begin to Integrate into Winter City]

Not long after following Arcee, Saotome Arte was sure that the woman in front of her must have a high status in Winter City. The soldiers on guard and patrol would not stop her at all. When the two came to a huge hangar, the nearby soldiers took the initiative to help them open the hangar door. Resisting the

question he wanted to ask, Saotome Arte focused his attention on the gradually unfolding hangar.

As the door opened and the lights came on, several planes parked in the hangar came into his sight one after another: “These are…” The

planes in front of him had different appearances. Some of them were somewhat similar to the planes he had seen in the history of aviation development, but they were also very different.

In addition, he glimpsed a few “old-fashioned planes” in the innermost part, and those planes were exactly the same as what he had seen in the book.

This seemed to mean that these planes were the products of the “Earth Age”, which were antiques to him.

He was a little worried. Wouldn’t all the planes here be “antiques”?

Fortunately, with Arcee’s introduction, he realized that the planes in front of him were newly built prototypes of Winter City. They were made by the “idle people” of the Winter Alchemy Workshop, of course mainly Tony Stark, the chief consultant of Winter City, in their spare time, and also to test the technology.

In addition to verifying the technology, this is also to ensure that when needed, a fighter design that meets the current needs can be immediately produced and put into production in the shortest time.

So, although Winter City currently does not have a real air force, the accumulation of technology has never stopped.

“These planes have the ability to enter and exit the atmosphere alone, and are equipped with the latest energy shields and space compression technology…” It can be said that the outermost ones already have the same combat power as the Decepticons, but whether they can play it depends on the ability of the pilots.

After listening to some of the parameters of the fighters, Art knew that these fighters have very strong combat power. Judging from the parameters Arcee said, the combat power of these fighters can be comparable to the legendary VF-25, but it also brings a very embarrassing problem:

he can’t fly these planes!

Because of the strong maneuverability of these fighters, the pilots of these fighters must withstand very terrifying G-forces.

However, the fighters in front of them do not have the newly developed miniaturized ISC system (inertial buffer, which stores the inertial vector in the FOLD space to reduce the burden on the pilot), which means that the pilots themselves must withstand the terrifying G-forces brought by high maneuverability, which is basically impossible.

Art seriously doubted whether Winter City had any misunderstandings about fighter pilots? Or were the “humans” in Winter City extremely strong in physical fitness? They did not need to develop devices like ISC at all?

With such doubts, Art visited the training of Winter City soldiers again.

Well, the answer came out. The humans in Winter City were indeed very strong. It was naive for him to dream of becoming a pilot in such a place full of “monsters”.

At the same time, Art began to be more curious about Winter City. He saw many magical abilities here. Especially when he heard Arcee introduce that he also had the opportunity to learn those abilities, and that learning them would make people stronger, he suddenly understood the direction he should work hard in…

“The boy named Art is visiting the Winter Camp.”

“Yes.” David did not pay special attention to the young reserve pilot, but Arcee checked the information and contacted him through communication, which made David know Art’s movements: “It seems that he really likes to fly fighter planes.”

Looking at the bald old man who was chatting with him, David was not surprised that the old man knew that Art was in the Winter Camp. As a

mutant with the strongest brain, Charles Xavier did not even need to look for it specifically to accurately locate the location of everyone in Winter City.

After all, Winter City is so small that Charles did not need to actively search, it was completely a passive skill.

And he would pay attention to Saotome Art, because this was a ‘newcomer’ who had just arrived in Winter City, and his situation was somewhat similar to that of the mutants who had just arrived in Winter City.

The old professor was very curious about what kind of story such an “ordinary” human boy could write in Winter City?

From Saotome Art’s experience, we can also understand the man in front of us more clearly: Duke David Glamorgan, a powerful existence who is definitely not as young and harmless as he looks on the surface.

Looking through his mental power, Charles Xavier always felt that he was looking directly at the “light”, and Charles, who had super mental power, was not as superficial as “ordinary people”.

He could sense the turbulent waves hidden under the warm and sacred light.

It was precisely because he could sense things that others could not see that Charles was worried about the future of mutants. He hoped to know more about Duke David Glamorgan and prevent mutants from being led to a worse path by himself.

From the current observation, this Duke is still trustworthy. At least the Duke is consistent in his words and deeds and treats mutants very well.

Even though the mutants have been in Winter City for some time, they have been “busy with their own things” and have not provided much help to the development of Winter City.

Even though the existence of mutants has increased the population of Winter City and continuously brought human survivors from their world to Winter City, the truly ambitious people will not be satisfied with such a small benefit and will definitely want more.

David did not behave in this way, especially he did not force the mutants to join the army or become an armed force that only obeyed his orders.

Even when a powerful Kryptonian like Kara came to Winter City not long ago, David, as the Lord, did not ask Kara to join the army, but let the powerful female Kryptonian choose what she wanted to do.

Just from this point alone, he won the favor of Charles, and Charles, who was not young and knew how to respect each other, was willing to give David, the Duke of Glamorgan, who saved the survivors of their world, enough rewards.

The old professor understood that helping the Duke of Glamorgan was actually helping themselves.

After learning that there were many enemies around Winter City and that there were even more terrifying enemies outside the planet, the old professor came here specifically to express his desire to join the Winter Alchemy Workshop and contribute the knowledge he had accumulated over the years.

In addition, he also implicitly stated that if there were any difficult combat missions, Logan, who had an immortal body, should be able to help a lot (Logan:???).

“Is the rescue operation in your world over?”

“Almost over.” Charles sighed. It’s not that there are no humans on the earth in his world, but the remaining “humans” are not the same as them. I don’t know if the sentinel robots that have lost their target will turn their targets around and lock on this group of people.

Whenever he thinks of this, he thinks that maybe according to the original plan, it would be a better choice to eliminate this bad world line?

As if his thoughts were seen through, just as he had this thought, the Duke of Glamorgan opposite him suddenly said: “There will be a world line where the sentinel robots failed.”

“If someone else said this, I would only take it as comfort.”

But Charles would believe the words of the Lord of Winter City, because there are real examples of the existence of “parallel universes” in Winter City, and there are many people or things that have impacted his worldview.

“Maybe you will have the opportunity to meet yourself in another world line in the future, or other acquaintances.”

“I hope that day will come sooner.”

Back to business, David thought about it and there was indeed a task suitable for an experienced and fearless warrior like Logan to perform.

“The Winter Knights are preparing to search and investigate the waters east of Port Tiran to find the original home of the orcs.” David felt that some clues should be found on that island.

But the risks are unknown, and no one knows what will happen. He was worried that Crossbones Rumlow would take a few ordinary Winter Knights and might not return. He considered letting Peggy go, and even considered going in person-of course, he would definitely call Clark, the top bodyguard.

If Logan is in charge of this investigation, the safety factor will be greatly improved, and he doesn’t have to make a special trip. He can just stay in Winter City as his leader.

After chatting with Charles for a long time, the mutant leader left Glamorgan Castle accompanied by Storm, and Charles ran in as soon as he left.

“I think Storm should have a good impression of me.”

“…”

While Charles and David were chatting, Storm stayed outside. It seems that Storm was not bored while waiting.

“Aren’t you afraid that Black Panther will cause trouble for you?”

“This Storm doesn’t know Black Panther.”

Mark chatted for a few words and then started to talk about business: With the withdrawal of the surveillance he was under, he has regained his freedom. Next, he will maintain his identity as a “scientist” in his own world, occasionally publish papers and give speeches.

The focus of life will gradually shift to Winter City, and his first job after taking over as the Minister of Sanitation is to check whether the land in the northern plains is contaminated by evil energy?

If so, it must be dealt with and resolved as soon as possible!

“What if there is none?”

“If not, you just need to make sure that the development of Winter City does not seriously damage the natural environment.” The construction and development of the city will inevitably affect the natural world. The key is to grasp the scale.

As a shaman priest who can communicate with the spirit of the earth, Mark should be able to determine this scale.

“In addition, can you see if you can train a few more shaman priests in Winter City?”
