[Chapter 403 Crowned King]

Bruce did not fall out with David. After all, he was an experienced old bat, not a young man full of naive ideas.

In a way, David’s method can indeed solve Gotham’s problems.

Moreover, David was not as radical as the ninja master, ready to wipe out the entire city of Gotham from the world without distinguishing between good and evil. However,

the effectiveness of the method does not mean that it can be implemented. Bruce Wayne did not think that he could become the lord of Gotham. He has always been hiding in the dark instead of standing in the foreground.

As for joining the Avengers, he decided to join after thinking about it, because after he came to Winter City, David mentioned Darkseid to him.

The dark lord will inevitably launch an attack on the earth. Bruce Wayne does not think that he, who is just an ordinary human, can fight such a powerful enemy alone, and it is not his character to leave the enemy to others and stay out of it, so he has no choice but to join.

After joining the Avengers, Bruce Wayne began a series of preparations: First, he had to find out the various powers, resources, and connections to the world in Winter City, and who could come to support him when necessary?

Based on this information, a detailed plan was made to prepare for the future battle against Darkseid.

Bruce Wayne began to be busy, and he couldn’t even find anyone. The only reliable way was to go to the Bat Cave or the coffee shop he often went to in Winter City and wait for him to appear.

However, David didn’t go to Bruce recently. In fact, he didn’t go to anyone during this period.

Summer gradually faded away, and autumn finally arrived.

Winter City ushered in the most lively period since its establishment.

Countless people from all over the Brunnia continent gathered in Winter City. Many outsiders were amazed at this magical city, and some people were not even ready to leave and considered settling directly in Winter City.

There were also many adventurers who were curious about the various novelties in Winter City. They wanted to buy some weapons, armor, notebooks, pens, etc.

The influx of a large number of people further stimulated the economy of Winter City. New factories were built in the industrial zone almost every day.

Many small hotels, restaurants, taverns and other places of consumption have also been opened.

In addition, many races that have never been seen in Winter City have appeared, such as tauren, centaurs, and other races that are extremely rare in the Kingdom of Tiran.

Unfortunately, David has no time to contact these tourists, and even has no time to pay attention to the bard Edkin, so he can only hand over the task of monitoring the thief to his subordinates.

As the day approaches, David conducted several drills under the supervision of etiquette officer Elias, and also received the Lord of Iron Tree Castle, Marquis Dudley Morgan. Marquis Dudley

Morgan had just arrived in Winter City a few days ago. Accompanied by Maloney Mansfield, after a brief tour of Winter City, he waited for the opportunity to meet with Duke David of Glamorgan alone.

When Marquis Morgan saw the young David, he couldn’t help but feel a little emotional: just a few years ago, this young man was still a civilian pioneer who was about to receive the appointment letter from him.

Who would have thought that in just a few years, David Glamorgan has grown from an ordinary civilian young man to what he is today – even as a marquis, he has to swear allegiance to him. It is

impossible to say that there is no dissatisfaction in his heart.

Marquis Morgan has fantasized more than once whether he can “replace” David Glamorgan and become the new king of the Kingdom of Tilan?

But reason constantly reminds him that he should just think about this delusion in his heart and never put it into practice.

Otherwise, what awaits him is definitely not the throne, but the execution platform.

“Winter City is really a beautiful city.”

In any case, this compliment is absolutely from the heart. Although I have heard countless reports from Maloney, I will still be amazed when I see it in person.

Winter City has no inner city or outer city, but the whole city can be so clean and beautiful, which is a miracle in the eyes of Marquis Morgan.

If possible, he also hopes that his Iron Tree Castle can become so clean and beautiful. After all, no one likes to live in a place surrounded by large garbage dumps and public toilets.

Even though there are various means to ensure that the air in the inner city is fresh enough, every time you go out of the city, you still can’t avoid having to endure the bad environment.

“I heard that the Snowfield Castle is undergoing renovation, and the Port of Tilan in the east of the Northern Plains has also taken shape?”

David looked at Marquis Dudley Morgan, knowing why he mentioned these two places, and gave him a straightforward guarantee: “As an important gateway town, the Iron Tree Castle does need some reconstruction.” With

David’s guarantee, Marquis Dudley Morgan believed that his meeting today was meaningful.

Showing attitude? Loyalty? There is no need to talk about such things anymore. What they want to discuss now are more practical benefits.

And David has enough good things in his hands to meet these people’s requirements.

And with the development of Winter City, David is constantly connected to more worlds through the golden finger. Even if David asks these lords to give up their territories in the future, he can also take out chips to make these people nod their heads in agreement.

There are enough trump cards and enough room for operation, so David is full of confidence in the future.

However, David has been receiving various envoys recently, which has made him miss a lot of things.

For example, during the time when David was preparing for the ceremony, the Alliance army in Azeroth had already gone to Northrend and launched an attack on the Lich King.

Try to completely eliminate the huge threat of the Lich King at one time.

Winter City mainly serves as technical support in this war, and a small number of people are sent to help.

For example, Aidan, who has basically gotten rid of Diablo’s control; Laura, who is relatively free and wants to see what good things there are in Northrend; in order to ensure the combat effectiveness of himself and his men, General Zod and others…

will go to Azeroth to help a little, fight the undead or something.

Even, in order to better achieve the goal of turning the entire group into paladins, the Winter Knights were taken to Northrend by Gareth Stanton for several expedition trainings. It must be said that fighting the undead does seem to help with becoming paladins. After several trips, the Winter Knights are one step closer to turning all members into paladins.

David would never have thought that Gareth was so anxious to make his knights become paladins in order to let the Winter Knights show off at the succession ceremony.

As the ace knights of Winter City, the Winter Knights will serve as the guards and ceremonial team of the new king David. At that time, the whole group will be shining with golden light and surrounded by holy light. It is not just as simple as looking cool, but also able to spread the reputation of the Winter Knights to the entire Brunnia continent.

After all, a knight group composed entirely of extraordinary people who have mastered mysterious powers has never appeared in the history of the Brunnia continent. The

Winter Knights will become the first armed group whose entire group has mastered mysterious powers, which is recorded in the history of the Brunnia continent.

In the expectation of countless people, the day of the succession ceremony has finally arrived.

David greeted all his familiar friends in advance. Most of the people who received the invitation came to Winter City in advance. Fortunately, the ceremony was held in the square south of Winter Fortress, so there was no need to worry about too many people and no room for arrangement.

A platform had been built there in advance, and a series of arrangements were made around the platform to reserve seats for the guests watching the ceremony.

At the same time, the height of the platform, which was similar to the altar, was very suitable, so that civilians watching from a distance could see the whole process.

What if someone made trouble? Even wanted to assassinate?

David was not worried about such things. If an assassin really appeared, it might be more interesting.

For him, this so-called succession ceremony was very boring. The only thing to be thankful for was that he did not have to control his eating and drinking before the ceremony like ordinary people.

Even if he had a big meal and then walked directly to the ceremony platform, he did not have to worry about making a fool of himself due to physiological factors.

“It’s just too boring.”

Standing on the platform, David carefully maintained his image and observed the guests watching the ceremony below with his peripheral vision.

There were people from the Marvel Universe, such as Steve, Thor, Tony, and Natasha, who had joined or not joined Winter City; there were also Clark, Bruce, and others from the DC Universe.

He also saw a large group of Pokémon, headed by Squirtle, who stayed in the viewing area reserved for Pokémon. In addition to Squirtle, Eevee, and Bulbasaur, who were the most numerous in Winter City, there were also Caterpie and Jigglypuff.

In addition, Leon, Jill, Claire, Chris, and others were also below, while Will, Elizabeth, Leonard, and others stayed in the group of officials in Winter City. Those

who had direct ties with Winter City had all arrived, and many who had indirect ties had also come. David even saw Kael’thas, who had ascended the throne as King of Quel’Thalas, Calia Menethil, Queen of Lordaeron, and Daelin Proudmoore of Kul Tiras.

It can be said that at this moment, a large number of important people from several worlds gathered in the square. If someone could throw something like the Focusing Iris at this time, it would definitely be a super event that would affect the multiverse.

The group of people below would never have thought that David, who was about to be crowned king on the stage, would have such things in his mind.

When Abelson finally finished his speech, took off the newly made crown on his head and placed it on the tray in the hands of the etiquette officer Elias in front of him, the ceremony finally reached the most critical step.

Seeing Elias kneeling on one knee in front of him, holding the tray in his hand, and holding the glittering crown in front of him, David retracted his drifting thoughts, solemnly picked up the crown with both hands, and slowly placed it on his head.

With David’s action, the sky, which was originally clear and without a single cloud, suddenly became “dim”, and all the light seemed to be concentrated together into a beam, covering David wearing the crown.

At the same time, the fifty winter knights around the high platform raised their swords, and at the same time, wings condensed with holy light spread out behind them.
