[Chapter 451: Continue to Advance Southward]

Boom!

There were loud noises one after another, and then a large cloud of dust floated up.

Countless people gathered outside the gate of Winter Fortress, stretching their necks to look forward, including people like Bruce, Diana, Constantine, and Steve.

After all, what was being demolished at this time was Fort Glamorgan, the building equivalent to the heart of Winter City.

The diggers knew that they were being watched by countless people, but they were not affected at all: it was just demolishing a house, and they were very familiar with this job, and they would not make any mistakes with their eyes closed.

As for this work, the only trouble is the Winter Government Building and the Fortress Barracks next to it. When demolishing Fort Glamorgan to build Winter Fort, these two buildings must not be affected.

According to Van Cleef’s design, after the construction of Winter Fort is completed, the Fortress Barracks can be demolished, because the new Winter Fort is large enough, and there are enough rooms reserved for soldiers stationed, standing guard and patrolling.

As for the Government Building, it will also be demolished later, and in the future, all government departments in Winter City will have their own office buildings.

Winter Fortress, from now on, there will only be one building, Winter Castle.

There is only one reason for doing this: it is more imposing and beautiful!

The crowd watching at this time did not know what the new Winter Castle would look like, nor did they know where the government building would be moved. They watched the diggers completely demolish the original Glamorgan Castle, and they always felt that this was a symbol:

Winter City has ushered in a new era.

“It is indeed a new era. When His Majesty comes back and the new Winter Castle is built, the Kingdom of Winter should become the Winter Empire, right?”

Constantine took out a cigarette and lit it. His lung cancer had been almost cured by the priests of the Holy Light Cathedral. At the same time, he was also learning various knowledge such as Holy Light, Arcane, Shaman, etc.

Of course, he did not let go of alchemy, and even dabbled in the skills of tracking and traps that the rangers are good at.

At first glance, this seems to be an adult who does not know the height of the world and wants everything.

But what is amazing and even more difficult to accept is that this person has learned so much knowledge and has successfully mastered every one of them.

Such amazing qualifications naturally attracted a lot of attention. Even though some people in Winter City already knew that these “outsiders” were not ordinary people, this person’s performance still seemed too outrageous.

If it weren’t for the fact that Constantine’s name was resounding throughout the multiverse, and people who had a little understanding of what this name meant were very afraid of him, John Constantine should have become the key recruitment target of Winter City, instead of being a “passerby” that no one cared about like now.

Constantine himself didn’t care. After a brief contact with some people in Winter City who were in the same situation as him, he understood why he was treated like this.

In fact, it’s better now! Free and unrestrained.

If the King of Winter City really wanted him to be loyal to Winter City, he might not agree.

Instead of doing this, it’s better to take what you need and collect rewards according to the specific situation when the other party needs you. Everyone doesn’t owe each other, and communication can be easier.

Oh, I should be considered to owe Winter City a life now, and I have to find a chance to repay this favor.

“I don’t think David took this to heart, especially since the Cathedral of Light would lend a helping hand to all those who came for help.”

“According to what you said, I was able to come to Winter City because of that king, right?” Constantine glanced at Steve across from him, and felt that he was able to cure lung cancer because he came to this magical city, and that he was able to come here because of David Glamorgan’s unique ability.

So it was no problem to count David as saving his life.

“I will remember this favor.”

“David will definitely be very happy to hear you say that.”

“Don’t you care about my bad reputation?”

“No.”

Steve recently specially reviewed Constantine’s identity and background information, and knew that although the man in front of him was a bit of a scam, he was indeed a superhero on the side of justice.

What’s more, the man in front of him was not a shameless version, so David did not expel him and acquiesced to Constantine’s treatment and learning of various knowledge in Winter City.

As for rewards, Steve felt that David might not care about this matter particularly. His own strength and the power of his subordinates had developed to a certain extent, and there were not many things that David could find difficult to solve.

For David, the alien visitors from various worlds not only provide more worlds for Winter City, but also satisfy David’s personal collecting habit.

Just like David had to pull Diana, Barry, Arthur and others into the Multiverse Justice Avengers. Did Winter City really need the fighting power of these people? It was obvious that he wanted to catch all the members of the Justice League in one fell swoop.

No matter if it’s useful or not, it has to be there!

“No matter if it’s useful or not, it has to be there…”

David sat in the mansion that had just been cleared in White Rock City, discussing the matter of mages with Sophia, Sylvanas, and Vereesa.

After thinking about it, he couldn’t think of a suitable candidate for a mage.

It’s not that he couldn’t think of any mage, but the ones he thought of didn’t seem very reliable.

Gandalf is not a mage, he is actually a god;

The situation of mages in the DND world is quite special. The truly powerful mages have become gods, and the remaining weak ones are useless to summon, and he doesn’t look down on them.

There are many mages in Azeroth, but the ones David can think of, except Antonidas and Kael’thas, are now “guests” in Winterfell.

Are there any other powerful mages besides them? David flipped through his memory palace, trying to choose someone from a movie or anime he had watched before.

As a result, after thinking for a long time, he couldn’t think of a suitable candidate.

“Isn’t Tony Stark learning magic?” Sylvanas didn’t know what David was thinking about. She only said that according to the mage, apart from Jaina Proudmoore and Rhonin in front of her, she could only think of Kael’thas Sunstrider, who had succeeded to the throne of Quel’Thalas, and Tony Stark and Steve Rogers in Winterfell: “And isn’t Steve Rogers also a mage?”

“If it doesn’t work, Steve will have to take over.”

David curled his lips. If it was a mage, he didn’t think Steve was a top mage, but if there was a situation that needed a god of magic to calm the situation, he would definitely not choose Tony Stark.

That person would make some trouble when he was free. If he really became the god of magic and managed the magic power of the entire Brunnia, it would definitely give him some great fun.

So the great mage Tony Stark should continue to attack the continent of Westeros! Don’t harm Brunnia!

While several people were chatting, Gareth Stanton and Sutton Stewart had almost dealt with all the affairs of White Rock City.

According to the normal process, after sweeping away the remaining soldiers and pacifying the people, His Majesty the King should appoint someone to temporarily manage White Rock City until White Rock City welcomes a new lord.

If it is according to the previous practice, the new lord will either be the person who conquered this place or a local family.

But the Kingdom of Winter is different. David has long decided not to implement the feudal system. The previous lords surrendered too quickly. He has not found a suitable excuse to deprive these people of their territories for the time being. He had to keep these lords first and find a way to deal with them later.

White Rock City is different. This city, which was occupied by the Holy Kingdom of Gaunt and now has been recaptured, is currently a “no man’s land”. How could he give it away again?

Just like the previous rebellious lords, the government affairs of White Rock City will be taken over by officials sent by Winter City, and the military will be handled by some soldiers of the Winter Legion.

“Your Majesty, I’m afraid we need to leave more soldiers in Baiyan City.” Earl Sutton-Stewart had no objection to the “changes” of the Kingdom of Winter. He just reminded His Majesty that Baiyan City was different from the cities that had been conquered before.

Compared with places like Dragon Castle, the local big families in Baiyan City were not purged. Only the Otto family was wiped out.

If these families found that the new king didn’t care about them at all, the new lords were not their “own people”, and they would not even rely on their power for specific governance, they would definitely make trouble.

“We want them to jump out and make trouble.”

If it weren’t for the fact that he was surrounded by “righteous” superheroes, David really wanted to carry out a major purge of Baiyan City.

In order to make himself appear less cruel, he had to take the trouble to sell a flaw, hoping that these guys would not live up to his expectations and deliver the excuse to him as soon as possible.

“Got it!”

Sutton understood it immediately, so when arranging the soldiers stationed, he not only did not leave more as suggested, but even left fewer than in Dragon Castle and other places, as if the army was heading south to attack the Kingdom of Holy Gaunt and had no time to divide the troops to guard Baiyan City.

After doing all these things, the news that Baiyan City had been “captured and occupied” by the Kingdom of Winter had been passed to the Temple. The Kingdom of Holy Gaunt responded immediately and mobilized all the elite soldiers in the country to rush to the border between the two countries.

Judging from the information sent back by Megatron and the patrolling Decepticons, the Kingdom of Holy Gaunt probably wanted to take back Baiyan City.

“This is not bad. If we can solve the entire military force of the Kingdom of Holy Gaunt in one battle, the subsequent work will become much simpler.”

Looking at the astonishing number of Knights Templar on the screen, David didn’t take it seriously.

It was just 3,000 heavy-armored knights using magic equipment, 1,000 mages giving various buff magic, and 5,000 fully-armored infantry for magic support in the rear. I wonder if it is enough for the Knights of Tilan, the Knights of Winter and the Decepticons to kill for half a day?
