Age of Empires From Scratch - Chapter 481



[Chapter 480 Fleet Academy]

Life in the academy was peaceful and fulfilling, and three years passed unnoticed.

In the past three years, James Kirk, who was reincarnated by Edkin, has become one of the best students in the Fleet Academy. With his performance, he has almost secured a position as a captain.

The only suspense is how long it will take to become a captain, not whether he can become one.

Tony Stark and Bruce Wayne are also the celebrities of the Fleet Academy, and both of them have shown amazing talents.

In addition, the former is a well-known party maniac, troublemaker and poisonous tongue in the academy, which makes him popular and annoying in the academy.

The academy has a headache for this guy. Expel him directly? But they are reluctant to give up such a genius. At the same time, they have not yet discussed how to arrange his position in the future.

In comparison, Bruce is much more low-key, and at most he is regarded as a playboy.

Under the cover of these celebrities, James Norrington and David are much more low-key.

But this is what they think.

James Norrington was able to become a commodore of the Royal Navy at a young age. His talent was beyond doubt. After taking various “common sense” lessons in Winter City, he also previewed a lot of knowledge in advance. He did not feel any discomfort after arriving at the Fleet Academy and quickly got into the state.

Compared with James Kirk, who often had a wild imagination and came up with all kinds of strange tactics and methods of operation.

James Norrington was more like an “orthodox” commander. In addition to the textbook-like command and operation, he was also flexible and adaptable, so James Norrington was even more evaluated by the instructors than Kirk.

As for David… He performed well in most subjects, and the reason for his fame was much simpler than that of the others: because of his appearance, David won the title of the first school idol in the history of the Fleet Academy.

He did not need to study hard or show any talent to become a well-known existence in the academy.

Every day, there were countless male and female students who wanted to meet him by chance, encounter him by chance, and encounter him by chance. What made everyone feel sorry was that David had always been “clean and self-disciplined”, and no one had ever heard of any little bitch who really succeeded.

Even if some information is occasionally passed on, it will soon be proved to be just bragging!

Gale, who is really close to David, has not developed into a romantic relationship. It seems that they are just simple friends.

The bored students even started to bet on who will be the first person to take down the No. 1 schoolboy in the history of the Fleet Academy!

It is said that the number of bets is very high, and even some instructors have joined the gambling. The accumulated amount has reached an astonishing figure…

“I asked you to learn things, not to make money.” David looked at Tony in front of him and was very speechless about this guy.

Others don’t know, but David can’t know that the gambling was made by Tony Stark?

“I did it for everyone to live better in the academy.” Tony took a sip of beer and shared some of the pot with Bruce next to him: “And Bruce also participated.”

“…” Bruce was quite speechless, although he had once shown himself as a playboy and a prodigal son, and behaved similarly to Tony.

But that was to hide the identity of Batman, and it was a disguise he deliberately created. And Tony Stark is not pretending, his character is so unreliable.

“Gail, if you succeed in taking down David one day, tell me in advance so that I can make some arrangements.”

Gale has emerald green skin like watermelon rind and fine curly red hair. At first glance, she seems to be of the same race as Shrek or Gamora.

Tony had never thought that David would be interested in her.

However, after careful observation, he found that Gale’s facial features were not bad and her figure was top-notch. Although her skin color was a little different from that of Earthlings, it was not a big problem. Maybe David just wanted to eat watermelon?

As time passed, Tony found that it was not what he thought at all. David and this alien girl named Gale were really just friends.

After asking privately, he understood why David became friends with Gale.

“I just collected some hair samples!”

“Samples?” Tony was stunned for two seconds, and then reacted: “So that’s it.”

But knowing the truth is knowing the truth, no one can stop him from using Gale to make fun of David. Anyway, Gale doesn’t mind. Maybe this green girl also wants to be the number one in the Fleet Academy.

On the contrary, Gale’s roommate and best friend, the Earthling version of Gamora, really had no interest in David. Her boyfriend was the instructor of the academy, Spock.

Although she was sitting at the same table with everyone else, she had never looked at David once.

What she cared about was the next “assignment.”

Under normal circumstances, after completing courses and various assessments at the Fleet Academy, students will have the opportunity to board a starship.

However, which starship to board depends on how the instructors assign it.

“Do you have a starship you want to go to?”

“Of course.”

Everyone responded positively to the new topic brought up by the Earthling version of Gamora, that is, Nyota Uhura. Tony Stark directly expressed his hope to board the Enterprise.

“Same.”

“Ditto.”

Except for Gale who said that it didn’t matter which starship she went to, the rest of them wanted to go to the Enterprise.

Uhura had a headache after hearing this. She didn’t expect that all these classmates actually wanted to go to the Enterprise. If so, the competition she would face was too fierce. She doubted that it would be difficult for her to get the position she wanted.

Especially David, this guy’s talent in languages was like a cheat. There was simply no language he couldn’t learn. She originally thought that her talent in languages was extremely strong, and it would not be difficult for her to become a communications officer on the Enterprise.

Now, she couldn’t be sure of this.

Even if David was excluded, she would still face fierce competition from Bruce Wayne. Although this guy was not as outrageous as David, he was also a language genius, and his performance in other subjects was even better than David.

In this comparison, she, who was only outstanding in languages, was immediately set off to be extremely mediocre.

“It would be interesting if everyone could get on the Enterprise.” Gale didn’t know that Uhura was having a headache now, but she seriously considered that if everyone could get what they wanted, should she also find a way to go to the Enterprise?

“It’s not that simple. There will be conflicts in positions.”

“No.”

David directly denied Uhura’s judgment. In fact, he, Tony and Bruce had already discussed it secretly. At that time, they would use means to arrange everyone on the Enterprise. The purpose was of course to get the red matter in the hands of the villain Nino.

Gathering together makes it convenient for them to adjust their action plans anytime and anywhere.

“Your goal is to become the communications officer of the Enterprise, right?”

“Yes.”

“I’m not interested in that position.” David pointed at Tony: “His goal is to be a scientific officer, and Bruce’s goal is to be a navigator or a weapons officer.”

“Then which position do you want?”

“Me?” David spread his hands: “It’s okay to be able to board the starship. It doesn’t matter which specific position. In fact, I can help.”

His purpose is to participate in the plot, and he doesn’t care about anything else.

After all, he doesn’t plan to stay in this world anymore, and he has never considered being a starship captain here.

Including Edkin, who is currently incarnated as Kirk, although he studied the captain’s command major, he has no obsession with becoming a starship captain.

But he knew in his heart that after learning how to command a starship, he would most likely become the captain of the Winter Kingdom’s space fleet after returning to Winter City.

He looked at David, and when Uhura and Gale left, he deliberately sent away Leonard McCoy, a friend he met when he entered the academy, nicknamed Old Bones.

“I calculated the time, and the rescue operation of Vulcan is not far away.”

David nodded. He had been calculating the time and knew that the plot was about to begin. At the same time, he also knew that Edkin really wanted to talk about something else, so he waited quietly for the next part.

“In that operation, several starships were ambushed and destroyed, and countless people died, including our friends and classmates who had been with us for three years…” Edkin looked at a few people and said, “Are we just going to watch them die?”

In this rescue operation, except for the Enterprise, all other starships were destroyed, which also meant that the group of students who followed the fleet to rescue were almost wiped out.

Edkin was originally a righteous person, otherwise he would not have become a Harper.

Although some changes happened later, he really couldn’t bear to watch so many familiar people die.

According to his understanding of the people in front of him, neither Tony nor Bruce were cold-blooded people, and they couldn’t bear to watch thousands of innocent lives disappear in front of them.

“Don’t worry, David is here, even if they really die, they can be resurrected.” Tony didn’t dwell on this issue too much. Even if those classmates were really killed by Nino, after everyone’s goals were all completed, David could just perform a big resurrection spell and they would all be alive – the only question was whether the Enterprise could accommodate so many people?

As for what kind of consequences such an amazing thing would cause, he didn’t care. Anyway, after getting the things, they would leave this world.

“…”

Edkin looked at David. He knew that David had strong strength and had heard many related rumors, but he hadn’t seen it with his own eyes, so he didn’t think about it.

“Is this your original plan?”

“No.” David waved his hand: “Actually, I’m considering adding a layer of holy shield to each starship when the fleet sets out.”

In this way, even if these starships plunged into the ambush circle, they could withstand the opponent’s attack.

As long as these starships are not destroyed instantly, they will no longer be threatened – David and his men will completely eliminate Nino and his men.
