Chapter 101: in david's spare time

  Chapter 101 When David is free

  Marvel Cinematic Universe, Stuttgart, Germany.

   "I say...get down on your knees!"

  A tall man in an antler helmet stands amidst a large kneeling crowd and speaks until an old man stands up in defiance.

   "Look at this old guy, he is your role model!"

  The scepter in his hand gathered a dazzling light, and then fired a beam of light towards the old man, but Steve, who suddenly appeared and stood in front of the old man, bounced the beam back with his shield.

   "Ah~!"

  The man wearing the antler helmet was knocked down by the beam he fired, which made him feel a little uncomfortable, so he quickly got up and looked at the man who appeared suddenly.

The tall, strong, and ambitious man with the star-spangled banner and hips, did not wear the uniform with the star-spangled banner pattern on his body today. It is very ordinary casual trousers and a leather jacket, but the round shield with the iconic pattern on his hand, Still betrayed his identity.

   "A big soldier."

   Knowing all the information about potential threats from the men under his control, he quickly matched the person in front of him with one of them: a soldier who was strengthened with very backward technology decades ago.

  In his heart, this soldier can't threaten him at all. It seems that if he wants to become the opponent's prisoner reasonably, he needs to work harder...

  Just as he was thinking this way, the shield on the opposite side had already flown over. The shield infused with holy light was very fast, and even drew an arc in the air.

   "?"

   Before he realized what was going on, the tall man had already been hit by the Avenger's Shield. When the powerful holy light contained in the shield hit him, it also made his brain dizzy for a moment.

   "What's going on? What kind of power is this? It seems to be different from the information I obtained?"

  The tall man who couldn't even stand still while he was dizzy, was rushed forward by Steve in the next second, pressed his hands wrapped in lightning on the opponent's body, and used the power of lightning to stun the enemy.

  Steve looked at the Asgardian named Loki who was lying on the ground with smoke all over his body, and then looked at his right hand, which still had the thunder that had not completely dissipated.

"The power of this move is much stronger than expected..." Then he looked down at Loki who fell on the ground, and soon realized that the opponent had not been seriously injured, and in just a moment, the opponent had awakened from a coma .

Just as he was about to say something, deafening music sounded from the sky, and then a metal man in gold and red colors landed beside Steve at high speed, watching Loki who got up slowly and showed all kinds of things on the armor. Weapon: "Don't move."

   "Mr. Stark."

   "Captain." Seeing the opponent raised his hands under the deterrence of his own weapon, Tony Stark felt very satisfied: "You have been arrested!"…

   Some time later, New York.

  The world-renowned bustling city has completely turned into a battlefield. Zeta Swiss soldiers are continuously drilled out of the wormhole in the sky, destroying the city frantically, killing all life that can be seen.

  Steve is wearing a seemingly ordinary and outdated armor, holding Will's newly forged hammer in his hand, which is exactly the same as the Hammer of Judgment.

Steve originally thought that the full-body armor with crystal powder added, and the hammer of redemption that Will had time to build after David confirmed that Steve had chosen the path of the paladin, would be useless in a short time. Husband, I didn't expect my world to usher in a huge crisis so soon.

   Alien invasion!

Faced with such a situation that he had never encountered before, Steve deliberately went back to Winter Village, put on the armor he had never worn before, and brought the hammer of redemption that he had just built, which he had never used himself. Then go straight to New York.

  The newly formed Avengers wondered where did the equipment on Steve come from? But now is not a suitable time for chatting, and I can only watch in wonder as Captain America suddenly turns into a medieval American knight, holding a shield and a warhammer and rushing towards the hordes of Zeta Swiss soldiers.

   Light kept flashing, and the battle became more intense. Steve looked at the chaotic situation around him, and he and his comrades were dragged into the bitter battle by endless alien soldiers. He felt his own weakness.

  Even with the approval of the Holy Light, he can only watch countless people lose their lives on the chaotic battlefield.

  A feeling of powerlessness surged from the bottom of my heart, but was quickly suppressed by Steve with faith.

   He tightened the shield in his left hand and continued to hold the hammer of redemption. He felt his limit and knew his weakness, but he still didn't think of backing down or even giving up.

  At this moment, a beam of light descended from the void and shone on Steve's body, restoring all his depleted physical strength, and the gradually depleted holy light was filled again, and even became stronger than before.

Steve also realized something through this holy light. He held up the hammer of redemption in his hand, and the beam of light that descended from the void suddenly became several times thicker, and then countless light spots slowly fell from the sky. The Avengers, as well as the civilians in New York, found that all the pain on their bodies disappeared.

A moon with a strange brilliance gradually appeared in the sky, and then the golden light spots were mixed with silvery white stars, and a bald man in a yellow robe stood on the roof and looked at the strange sight not far away. high altitude…

  World of Azeroth, Kingdom of Lordaeron, Hearthglen.

  Tirion Fordring stood on the city wall, returning to his homeland since the Scourge began to wreak havoc on the land.

   When Alsace killed his father, King Menethil, and led the Scourge to destroy all life, Fording took over Hearthglen, the territory that originally belonged to him.

  Tirion Fording has great prestige, even if he was deprived of his lord status, paladin status, and expelled from the country, but when encountering a terrible crisis, everyone still hopes that Fording will lead them to face the difficulties.

  The soldiers of Hearthglen, the Kingdom of Lordaeron, and the paladins of the Silver Hand Knights gradually gathered in Fording's Hearthglen.

After Gavin Ladd, one of the first five paladins, and Uther, Alsace's teacher, died at the hands of the prince of Lordaeron who fell for unknown reasons, more Knights of the Silver Hand The paladins fled to Hearthglen.

   "Did Saidan refuse?"

   Looking at the letter handed over by a paladin, Tirion Fording sighed helplessly.

  Actually, he didn't care about Saidan Dathrohan's accusations against him at the beginning, he attached great importance to the commander-in-chief of the Silver Hand Knights.

  Because Dathrohan's plan to storm Stratholme would not only cost him his life, but also be taken over by the Dreadlord, causing a lot of members of the Knights of the Silver Hand to go astray.

He doesn't want the few remaining human powers to become more fragmented because of Dathrohan under the ravages of the Scourge Legion. However, Fording can't care about Dathrohan now. I saw a flood of Scourge soldiers rushing towards Hearthglen.

  Turning around and walking for a while, I looked at the other side of the city wall: After careful planning, with the help of the dwarves and the efforts of the people of Hearthglen, a complete defense system has been constructed.

  Especially the rows of artillery positions, which were made by the dwarves working overtime. These cannons are the key to whether Hearthglen can block the Scourge.

  In a farther position, there are also hidden heavy artillery with more powerful firepower.

"Holy light..." Fording wanted to say something habitually, but just as he started, he realized that it was no longer holy light that protected him this time, but steel and gunpowder: "I hope the effect will be the same as I expected. "

Soon, the deafening sound of cannons reverberated in Hearth Valley. Standing on the city wall, Fording watched the smoke and dust rising in the distance like a sea of ​​natural disaster soldiers, and was killed before it could dissipate. The new smoke and dust set off instead.

   Soon, the Scourge soldiers in sight were completely gone, replaced by explosions and dust that seemed to never stop...

  When there is nothing to do, time seems to have stopped. After thinking about it, David felt that instead of wasting time, he might as well learn more from the old alchemist Newton.

  Even if Newton told him that it is useless to just listen to the theory if you want to learn about alchemy, David wants to learn not only alchemy, but he is also willing to learn other knowledge.

"Cudgel? Sword? Fist? Elvish? Tauren? Centaur? Blacksmithing? Painting?" Newton said that he has traveled around for so many years and knows a lot besides alchemy. If David is willing to learn, He is also willing to teach.

  But after David asked carefully, he found that he was not interested in much knowledge, and finally decided to continue to inquire about the customs of various countries.

  This time he specially drew a map of the Brennia continent in his notebook, and at the same time sorted out the messy and unsystematic information that Newton said.

  For example, the information belonging to the Kingdom of Tilan is recorded under the column dedicated to the Kingdom of Tilan, and the information that is not easy to classify is recorded under the other or miscellaneous categories.

   Some uncertain information was marked with a question mark. As a result, within a few days, David recorded a lot of information about the continent of Brunnia, constantly squeezing the value of the old alchemist Newton.

   After he sorted out the information, that Earl Stuart came to visit again.

  Earl Sutton-Stewart came to David this time to take him and Sharon to attend the aristocratic gathering in the Royal City of Tilan.

   "This is Bellam, my personal health advisor." Earl Sutton Stewart took advantage of the opportunity and introduced the man beside him to David and Sharon.

  Different from the low-key mingling among the attendants in the previous two times when I saw him, the dress Bellam wore today was a little more gorgeous and delicate, clearly different from the attendants.

  Earl Stewart did not prepare dresses for David and Sharon this time, and reminded them that they had better wear that black leather armor to attend the party.
