Age of Empires From Scratch - Chapter 422



[Chapter 422 A Group of Ace Pilots]

After carefully feeling it for a while, David found that it was comfortable, but sitting on it like this might damage the dignity of a king!

He tried to sit in an imposing posture and found that the energy beside him would automatically adjust to support his body. Although it was not as comfortable as directly lying in the energy, it was not bad.

“Well, a good throne.”

More importantly, this thing would not stick to me, so I would not be unable to get up after sitting on it.

“After all, this throne does not look like a toilet.” He

stood up from the throne and looked over on the steps. The whole hall was in full view, including those coming from behind him. They had to enter the hall from two passages on the side.

These two exits were also within his sight, and behind him was a very thick wall: it was said that there were thick vibranium plates hidden inside, and it was almost impossible to sneak attack from behind.

“But this bare wall doesn’t look very pretty?”

Helen, who came with David, explained the craftsmen’s idea: “The plan is to paste the map of the Kingdom of Winter on it.”

Eva, who also came with him, looked at Helen curiously and said, “Why not carve it on it?”

“In that case, we have to carve the entire map of Brunnia directly.” David guessed the craftsmen’s idea and chose to paste the map for easy replacement.

The actual territory of the Kingdom of Winter is only the northern plains plus the Iron Tree Castle.

But the army of the Kingdom of Winter is fighting in the south. If nothing unexpected happens, it will be able to bring the entire territory of the former Kingdom of Tilan under its rule within a year.

At that time, a new map can be drawn directly according to the map of the Kingdom of Tilan.

Later, it can be continuously updated according to the expansion of the Kingdom of Winter until all places in Brunnia are occupied, and then it can be directly carved on the wall.

After a round, David found that although this front hall was tall and spacious, it was not large enough for Cybertronians to come in at will.

“Edwin said that because Glamorgan Castle itself is not tall enough, if the front hall is built too high, Glamorgan Castle will be particularly small.”

When the front hall was built, Helen happened to ask this question, so she answered David’s question directly and asked David a question by the way: “David, have you ever considered building a larger and more luxurious castle or palace?”

In the past, David was only the lord of the Kingdom of Tilan, and the size of Glamorgan Castle at that time was very suitable for David’s status.

Now he is the king, and it can be predicted that he will become the only emperor of Brunnia in the future.

With his status, position and legendary status, it is somewhat inappropriate to live in such a small house in Glamorgan Castle.

“A bigger palace?” The first thing David thought of in his mind was the Forbidden City. Wouldn’t that be too exaggerated?

Then he thought of the Palace of Versailles, which was not so exaggerated, and it would be relatively simple to convert Glamorgan Castle into the Palace of Versailles – with the current area of Winter Fortress, it is enough to complete the reconstruction work, and there is no need to increase the area.

“In that case, wouldn’t this front hall have been built in vain?”

“Not really, it will be used frequently in the next period of time.”

Eva just said casually, but she didn’t expect that her judgment would soon be proved correct.

Since the front hall was built, many conversations with subordinates and guests have been arranged here. Elias never tires of reminding David to pay attention to his appearance, especially the crown that symbolizes his status, which must be worn on his head.

Although David doesn’t need to wear as gorgeous clothes as he did during the coronation ceremony, the dress with many accessories has become his main dress on weekdays.

He met with Marquis Morgan here, listened to Norrington and Hood’s detailed report on the west side of Winter City, that is, the area where the Winter River enters the sea, and also met with the lords who came to surrender one after another.

As the Winter Army rushed forward, the lords who didn’t take David seriously at first chose to surrender. The lords who had sent envoys before had already come to Winter City in person and swore allegiance to the new king in this front hall one after another.

This has become David’s main job these days. It was not until the first snow of the year fell on the northern plains that the endless allegiance ceremony, fearing that he would be late, became less frequent.

However, David did not expect that he would be able to receive some special guests in the front hall.

“I thought you two would come to visit Winter City earlier.”

David looked at Ozma Lee and Michael Brown in front of him, as well as Yong Dyson, who did not expect to come to Winter City so soon.

“So… you are actually the king here?”

Although Luca had explained the situation to several people, Ozma was still a little confused at this time. On the contrary, Yong Dyson, who was completely unfamiliar with everyone and had never met David, acted more casually.

He just came to see the situation in Winter City. After seeing the side-effect-free enhancement technology and advanced exclusive fighters promised by the other party, and confirming that the other party could offer a price that interested him, he would go back to handle the resignation.

When Yong first arrived at Winter City, he was a little disappointed and thought he might have been fooled. There was no reason for him to give up his job at SMS and go to work on such a “backward” planet. It was not

until Luca introduced it that Yong realized that he did not use a special space jump device to reach a certain planet, but directly arrived in another world.

Although he remained skeptical about this, after Saotome Art’s introduction to Winter City, Yong became slightly interested and prepared to take a closer look.

Ozma and Michael had not yet recovered from the shocking news. What another world, His Majesty the King of the Kingdom of Winter, and various powers full of superstition, how could it sound so ridiculous?

If the two had not seen the “real thing” soon, they seriously suspected that Luca and Saotome Art were hypnotized and brainwashed by some strange device, and a bunch of strange things were implanted in their heads.

Even so, they still did not fully recover. Until they saw David, their heads were still buzzing.

“Welcome to Winter City.”

After welcoming several people, David carefully looked at Yong Dyson. This man looked like he was in his prime, and he seemed younger than Ozma.

The main reason was that Ozma was not very old, but he had a stubble on his face, which made him look particularly vicissitudes of life.

“What do you want to see first?”

“Plane.” Yong did not ask the opinions of the people next to him. His purpose of coming here was very clear. He did not mention any mysterious power. He wanted to see the plane first to make sure that there was a plane that met his requirements before he could talk about other things.

“Come with me. The latest fighter plane has not been designed yet. Maybe you can make some personal requests.”

The technology obtained from the Macross world has been handed over to Tony Stark, the Cybertron Technology Research Center, and the Winter Alchemy Workshop by David.

Although Harry Osborn also built a laboratory in Winter City, Harry has not yet fully understood the current technology of Winter City, so David did not give him the new technology.

Elias arranged a car and greeted Tony in advance. The group went directly to Stark Manor.

Although the Winter Alchemy Workshop also has new technologies and is preparing to integrate them into the existing technologies of Winter City, the focus of the Winter Alchemy Workshop is not on this aspect.

The same is true for the Cybertron Technology Research Center. The current research focus of these two places is on magical creatures such as Vajra (Luca was asked to transport the corpse samples), the artificial mass production of folding crystals, and the integration of folding crystals with existing technologies.

Only when Stark is free will he design a new fighter plane – this is equivalent to playing a small game in his spare time for him. It doesn’t take much effort at all, and it can be a good way to adjust the mental fatigue accumulated when practicing spells.

So if David wants Yong Dyson to visit the new aircraft, he needs to come to Stark Manor, where there are new fighter plane design drawings.

In addition, Winter City has a production capacity that is like a cheat. Once the design drawings are determined, it doesn’t take much time to manufacture a prototype.

David also explained on the way that Winter City’s production capacity is very strong. Don’t think that Winter City is still a long way from building a real new aircraft just because there are only design drawings.

“In an emergency, it only takes a few hours from the finalization of the design to the formal production to the final completion.” David also emphasized: “Including the time for painting.”

Sitting in the car, several people looked outside curiously.

Winter City does not look very advanced, but several people have seen many magical sights, especially when they got off the car, they saw someone flying over their heads.

“…”

Several people are ace pilots with vision far superior to ordinary people. They can’t be wrong, but how is this possible?

“Is that a human?”

“That’s a Kryptonian.” David glanced at it. It was Kara who just flew over the sky. She was the only one in Winter City who liked to fly around in the sky when she had nothing to do, and by the way, see if anything happened in the city: “A very powerful race.”

“How strong?” Yong’s interest was aroused, and he became curious about this race that could fly directly without the help of external objects. Can these people withstand the powerful overload of the VF fighter?

“They can enter and exit the planet in their physical bodies and fly in outer space.”

“…”

This sentence shocked several people to a stagnation, even Luca was scared. Although he had been to Winter City several times, he didn’t know that Kryptonians were so strong.

Even Saotome Art heard about this for the first time. He only knew that Kryptonians were very powerful and had many strange abilities besides flying, but he didn’t expect them to be this strong.

Isn’t this the same as Vajra?

At the same time, several people began to wonder: Since Winter City has such a powerful race, why do they want to recruit them?
