Age of Empires From Scratch - Chapter 398



[Chapter 398 Batman’s Invitation]

A few months ago, David asked Liadrin and Sylvanas to contact the elves in the Ironwood Forest.

After contact, they found that this group of elves was a group of peace-loving people who did not want to conflict with others. They lived here because they did not like to fight with people and their own people, so they migrated to this area where there were no elves.

After discovering that this group of elves “did not seem to be a threat”, Sylvanas returned to Winterfell and continued to train the Knights of Tiran.

Liadrin planned to stay in the elf village for a while longer, wanting to observe further to see if this group of elves was really “harmless”.

At this time, she had a clear answer: this group of elves was indeed a true pacifist, belonging to the marginal group of elves in the Ironwood Forest, and several of them were from the elf group that was fighting with Ironwood Castle.

Through this group of elves, Liadrin also learned that there were several elf tribes in the Ironwood Forest, and the one that was at war with Ironwood Castle was the most powerful one in the Ironwood Forest.

It is said that before the war with Iron Tree Castle, this tribe began to gather the surrounding elven tribes because of the oracle, which caused some elves who were unwilling to be incorporated to flee. The

rapid growth of this small village is also related to the changes in the elven tribe.

In addition, there is another elven tribe on the west side of the Iron Tree Forest. The number of people in that tribe is not large, but there are some dark elves from the Lost Land in the tribe.

In general, the situation inside the Iron Tree Forest is like this. The elves that Liadrin came into contact with should be able to be absorbed into Winter City peacefully.

The attitude of the western tribe is unclear. The large number of elves in the east of the forest must be conquered first.

As David has made initial preparations to sweep across the Brunnia continent, it is impossible for him to retain a force that does not belong to Winter City at all so close to his hometown Winter City.

Therefore, these elves either join Winter City or are eliminated.

In the past, due to the poor relationship between humans and elves in Iron Tree Castle, it was almost impossible to absorb the elves in the Iron Tree Forest to join Winter City. Now there is a good breakthrough.

David didn’t know at this time that Marquis Morgan of Iron Tree Castle had decided to pledge allegiance to him. If he knew this news, he would be happier about the current situation.

It was equivalent to directly taking over a large area of Iron Tree Castle and Iron Tree Forest, completely consolidating the rule of the area around Winter City. Without any worries, he could consider sending troops south.

Of course, the actual situation would definitely not be that simple.

When the cold wind from the north became less strong and a hint of warmth began to appear on the northern plains, the elves who had been fighting with Iron Tree Castle suddenly went north and shifted the focus of the attack from Iron Tree Castle to the northern plains.

David didn’t know why this group of elves suddenly came to trouble Winter City. Did they think that Winter City was easier to bully than Iron Tree Castle?

Or did they think that there was a wider territory on the northern plains and wanted to grab an area as a frontier base?

No matter what the elves thought, the elves’ attack this time was almost like pure suicide.

Even though they had more “novel” abilities, swords and arrows were attached with powerful energy, and there were more huge forest guardians (giant tree people, whose names Liadrin had inquired about) joining the battle, the battle was still one-sided.

The Spartan heavy infantry regiment was currently responsible for patrolling and stationing. The Spartan heavy infantry, who had sufficient combat experience and overwhelming weapons and equipment, killed and blew blood.

If they had not received an order to charge into the Iron Forest to fight back, perhaps this elf tribe in the middle and eastern part of the Iron Forest would have been completely wiped out today.

However, for these elves, they had provoked Winter City, and it would not be long before they were wiped out.

David would not miss such a good opportunity, and immediately ordered Gareth Stanton to mobilize the Winter Legion and the Dilan Knights to launch a counterattack against the elves in the Iron Forest!

“A real war can complete the reorganization work earlier.”

While fighting, training and reorganizing, David directly used these elves as targets for training.

Sylvanas was also very happy. She felt that such training was much more effective than torturing these idiots on the training ground. As for a ranger, how could he grow into a real ranger without going into the forest?

She felt that her men were all human knights after all. What they lacked was the experience of fighting in the forest. This real forest war was much better than training in a peaceful and quiet forest (the beasts in the winter forest breathed a sigh of relief).

Just as the first batch of trainees of the Tilan Knights and the Winter Legion officially set out to launch a counterattack against the elves in the south, the first warm wind of the year finally blew across the northern land, causing the snow that had existed for a winter to begin to melt.

“It’s starting to get warmer!”

David was not in Glamorgan Castle at this time, not even in Winter City.

He was suspended high in the air, feeling the comfortable feeling of the warm sunshine on his body. The holy light in his body seemed to respond, emitting a faint glow through David’s body.

Kara, who was also basking in the sun not far away, felt like she was basking in two suns at the same time.

Kara, who had already gotten used to this situation, was enjoying it happily. She felt that this was simply double the happiness, and her strength grew rapidly in this state.

Although she still couldn’t figure out what kind of existence David was, Kara would not dwell on this issue. It was enough to know that David was a good person.

As for the reminder from Clark (Kara had begun to get used to this name of her cousin), she found that David had not done anything beyond the boundaries or impolite to her, and gradually she didn’t take it too seriously.

Just when the two were basking in the sun together, a third person suddenly flew over. Judging from his appearance, he should not be here to join the two and enjoy the high-altitude sunbathing together.

“Clark?” Kara looked at Clark, who was flying to her side in regular clothes, and thought he was here to find her.

It turned out that Clark was here to find David.

“What happened?”

Clark would take the initiative to find me, most likely because of the multiverse Avengers that I casually brought up.

“Someone wants to see you.”

“Who?” David thought about it in his mind, thinking about everyone in the DCEU who could be named, and finally thought of one person: “Could it be Bruce Wayne?”

“It is indeed him.”

“This is not an unexpected answer.” David didn’t think it was strange. With Bruce Wayne’s personality, it would be strange if he didn’t want to see me.

In fact, with Batman’s personality and way of doing things, he should have secretly collected and investigated, but Bruce Wayne must have found it embarrassing that, except for contacting Superman, he couldn’t find any clues about David.

So, he could only pass the message through Superman.

“I would also like to meet this Batman.” I

haven’t seen many superheroes in the DCEU. In addition to Clark in front of him, he has only seen the Martian Manhunter disguised as a human general; and Wonder Woman Diana, and that meeting was not friendly.

The rest, such as the Flash, Aquaman, Cyborg, Batman, etc., have not been seen.

In addition to these, David was also curious about one thing: which version of Clark was in front of him?

He knew that the man in front of him was the God of Toilet War, but in fact there were different versions of the God of Toilet War Superman. This was related to which direction the subsequent plot of that world would develop?

Apart from other things, the upcoming Steppenwolf would have obvious differences due to the “different versions”.

Mama’s boy wolf? Or homecoming wolf?

“Make an appointment with Mr. Bruce Wayne!” David agreed to meet Batman, and after learning that the other party was waiting for him, he decided to go there immediately.

At the same time, he remembered one thing. Is Clark currently focusing on being Superman in his own world? Or has he found another job?

“No new job.”

In addition to being Superman, Clark either returns to his hometown to accompany his mother or his girlfriend Lois, and spends the rest of his time farming in Winter City.

He has no more time to do other work.

“Aren’t you going to try Tony’s suggestion?”

“Start a company?”

“Yeah!” David felt that if Clark was willing to use various advanced technologies to help the development and progress of the human beings on Earth, Batman would be the first to invest in Clark: “You just found the biggest sponsor now.”

“I’ll consider it.”

The three of them landed in Glamorgan Castle together, and then David went to change into a set of clothes that were more suitable for modern cities on Earth. When he appeared again, he had changed into sneakers, jeans, a blue plaid shirt, and a pair of glasses.

“Okay, let’s go!”

Clark looked at David’s outfit, which was indeed a very ordinary and common style. It seemed that David didn’t have to attract countless people’s attention every time he appeared.

After thinking about it, Kara decided to go with the two of them.

She had long abandoned her prejudice against the Earth. The kind-hearted Kara understood that people are different through Clark’s explanation and actual contact in Winter City.

Not everyone is so evil, and we can’t put everyone in the same position just because some people are evil.

She has been to Clark’s world in her spare time, and met with Lois, shopping together and buying many things.

While David was changing clothes, Kara also went back to change clothes, and then the three of them came to the DC universe where Clark was, and walked into a coffee shop under Clark’s guidance.

The coffee shop was not very large, but there was only one person sitting in the shop that should have been bustling at this time – a man with a sturdy figure, sitting alone in the booth next to the window, and he stood up when several people walked up to him.

“David.”

“Bruce Wayne.”

Clark saw the two people shaking hands and greeting each other, and took the opportunity to introduce his cousin Kara, and then several people sat in the booth together, with David and Bruce facing each other.

“So, what do you want to talk to me about?”
