Age of Empires From Scratch - Chapter 437



[Chapter 437: Blending in]

three of them gathered together to discuss for a moment, and by the way tested whether David could return to Winter City.

After a simple test, David found that using the teleportation ability brought by Blink, he could accurately open a portal next to Blink.

Although there are some flaws, it is confirmed that David is not trapped in this continent isolated by special technology and can leave at any time.

But it is a bit troublesome to come back.

“I scanned the special teleportation device on the outpost and stored it here. You will give it to Tony when you go back.”

In an emergency, more people can be teleported here.

But David thinks it is not meaningful. It is best to deal with things on the continent of Anera quietly.

As Asegos said, blowing up the entire continent of Anera can terminate the artificial Protoss plan, and at the same time it will cause great harm to Brunnia.

It is not only David who can use such extreme measures in an emergency. These Sakan people can also do so when necessary.

Even from a certain level, the Sakan people are more likely to do so.

Anyway, they will leave directly after blowing up Brunnia and look for the next planet with life.

Although the artificial Protoss plan is time-consuming and labor-intensive, it can still be carried out on other life planets.

“So, don’t make a scene for now.”

After figuring out the whole situation and conducting some tests, Steve’s advice is: do things quietly, don’t make a scene!

“What are your plans next?”

“I plan to take a closer look here and check this list by the way.” David was holding the list of candidates he got from Azegos.

Looking at the list in his hand, David suddenly thought: Can I blend in?

Seeing David staring at the list in deep thought, Laura and Steve immediately guessed David’s idea: “You want to pretend to be a candidate?”

“Yes.” David didn’t look up and began to seriously think about the feasibility of this matter: “The artificial Protoss plan of the Sakhan people is actually to let the life born from the power of Brunnia gradually gain more power from Brunnia and the recognition of many lives on Brunnia.”

“Then…”

“I am also a life ‘bred’ by Brunnia!”

From this aspect, David also has the qualifications of a ‘candidate’, but I don’t know if he can get ‘experience’ from the ‘tasks’ and ‘monsters’ arranged by these people?

If possible, he could completely blend in, defeat all other candidates, gain Brunnia’s approval, and then take back the energy stolen by the Sarkans.

“More importantly, if I can perfectly control the continent of Anera, then the Sarkans will not be able to blow it up and threaten the entire planet?”

After listening to David’s idea, Steve and Laura felt that this plan was somewhat feasible, but in this case, wouldn’t David have to stay on the continent of Anera for a long time?

“What if something goes wrong in Winter City?”

“I can go back at any time.”

“Why come here again?”

“That depends on Tony.” Tony Stark, who is good at technology, should be able to quickly understand the space technology of the Sarkans, right?

There is no need to understand it thoroughly. As long as he can perfectly copy the Sarkans’ transmission equipment and send him to the continent of Anera without attracting the attention of the Sarkans, it will be considered a success.

“Let’s do it!”

The more he thought about it, the more reliable it seemed. David then sent Steve back to Winter City and conveyed various arrangements to others. At the same time, Steve would go to Bruce to discuss it and see if there were any loopholes in David’s plan and help him fix them.

Laura stayed behind. If David wanted to take risks on the continent of Anera, she would certainly not miss it.

For a moment, the only couple in the Lord of the City were the man and woman, but neither of them had the idea of fighting. Laura raised her eyebrows at David, and David knew what she wanted to ask.

“The Lord of the City, Asegos, is just a figurehead. It doesn’t matter if he is in Everwinter City or not. He will act alone most of the time and will not interfere with the work of his subordinates. Similarly, his subordinates will not come to disturb the Lord of the City.” He will only show up

when receiving supplies, but even if he doesn’t show up, no one will feel strange – in the eyes of his subordinates, Lord of the City, Asegos, has always been mysterious.

Therefore, even if the people of Everwinter City find that the Lord of the City is missing, they probably won’t care too much, and may even think that the Lord of the City is just doing his own thing – Asegos, as a guide, does go out often.

“In that case, let’s get out of here first!”

Laura looked expectant. She was very much looking forward to the next adventure. She vaguely felt like she was going out to sea for the first time and looking for the legendary Yamatai.

“Go back to Winter City first. I’ll call you over after I leave the castle.”

“That’s right, I have to go back and make some preparations.” She

came here in a hurry. Although some commonly used weapons are in the storage space, she must prepare more things to start an adventure on an unfamiliar road this time.

Watching Steve and Laura leave one after another, David entered stealth mode again and left the castle unimpeded.

He did not rush to show his figure, but walked along the mountain path to the foot of the mountain, and then found a place where no one noticed before he lifted the stealth.

By the way, he changed himself into a set of clothes that seemed to have a warm effect and would not affect his movements. The style was also as consistent as possible with the styles on this continent.

David, wearing a thick jacket, waited quietly for a while, and finally felt that Laura responded to his call. He

accidentally tried another thing: this kind of call requires the other party’s consent to pull the other party over.

This is normal, otherwise it would be too embarrassing if he suddenly called and the person being called was solving some personal problems.

Looking at Laura, who also changed into a thick jacket, long pants and long boots, David knew that she and he had the same idea.

With the physical fitness of both people, they didn’t care about the cold, but they still appropriately carried out some “disguise” to make themselves not so special.

“I told Eva, Helen and Gwen about your situation. They asked me to take good care of you.” Laura touched her left hand with the mechanical deformation bow, and then glanced at her storage ring. After confirming that the important things were all there, she asked about the next plan: “What is the first step?”

“Look at the situation of these candidates according to the list.”

Laura took the list and looked at it. The first name on it was: Dutch.

“Dutch? Who is it?”

“He is a soldier in Everwinter.” When writing the list, Azegos told David about the general information of these people.

With David’s current memory, he would not forget it after hearing it, but he was busy memorizing and didn’t pay much attention to it. Now thinking about it carefully, he found that this list was full of slots.

“How should I find this person? Go to the Everwinter town next door and find a soldier to ask about this guy.”

Everwinter Town is actually a part of Everwinter City, but the castle of Everwinter City is built on the high mountain next to it, and Everwinter Town is located at the foot of the mountain. The distance between them is a bit far, which makes them look like two areas.

In addition, Yongdong Town is located in the southernmost part of the Yanela continent. At the same time, the terrain is high and covered with ice and snow all year round, so it is called Yongdong City.

The mountain where Yongdong City is located is also part of the Snow Peak, the highest mountain in the entire Yanela continent, and is the highest peak in the Yanela continent.

He casually introduced the general situation to Laura: the people in Yongdong City, in addition to hunting and trade with other towns, mainly rely on a plant that grows naturally in the Yongdong Forest for a living.

This plant called giant yam looks like a tree, but it grows in patches. After digging out the roots, the rhizome part can be eaten as a staple food, and the part above the trunk is very resistant to burning and has deodorizing and insect repellent effects. Firewood.

“It sounds like a magical plant.”

“Yes.”

David and Laura soon saw the bread baked with giant yam flour, which smelled very fragrant.

But the two did not find a place to eat in this small hotel, but went straight to the sheriff who was chatting with the boss at the bar.

Before the two of them spoke, the sheriff who had noticed them greeted them first: “Hello, adventurers from afar.”

David and Laura stopped and looked at each other. It was not surprising that the other party could tell that they were not locals. This town was so small, and as a sheriff, he must know the residents of the town.

The two strangers must have come from other places. There was nothing to hide.

“Hello, Your Excellency Sheriff.”

“Let me guess, you want to take some work from me? Make some extra money?”

“Yes, Your Excellency Sheriff.” David didn’t expect the sheriff to be so aggressive. Did he really have a ‘candidate’ template? Directly triggered the task mechanism?

David decided to communicate with the other party first to see what was going on?

“You know what? I was also having a headache because I couldn’t find anyone to do some things, and your timely appearance solved my problem.” The sheriff was very enthusiastic about David: “Some time ago, a series of hunters disappeared in the Everwinter Forest. I ordered Captain Dutch to lead a team into the Everwinter Forest to investigate the matter.”

“But Captain Dutch led a team of soldiers into the Everwinter Forest three days ago, and there has been no news since then. I really want to know what happened to him and his men?” When the sheriff spoke, there was a bit more worry on his face: “I have reported the situation to my superiors, but I don’t know when they will give clear instructions. Before that, I can’t take any action.”

“If you can investigate what happened on my behalf, I will be very grateful and pay a reasonable reward.”
