Age of Empires From Scratch

Chapter 395: The home of the orcs is gone

  Chapter 395 The orc's hometown is gone

  Holy Light and Shadow are two forces that oppose each other but are interdependent.

  Although many people know that light and shadow are two sides of one body, everyone will say in theory, but it is too difficult in practice.

  Due to the nature of shadow magic power, using this power alone will face a lot of problems. There are too many examples of people who think they have surrendered the power of shadow and lose their lives by backlash.

Even for assassins who only use a little bit of shadow traits, when practicing the skill of stealth, a large number of assassins in MI7 alone have accidents every year: either they die suddenly, or they get stuck in the gap between reality and the shadow plane Can't get out anymore.

  So, when Gwen unexpectedly comprehended this power, David couldn't be too careful.

  But after half a month of observation, David noticed that the holy light and shadow in Gwen's body formed a good coexistence relationship, and they also miraculously promoted mutual growth and could transform into each other without loss.

  This situation made David feel very miraculous, and he couldn't help but research it a little more. As a result, Gwen was a little dehydrated and had to rest for a few days before going back.

   After sending Gwen off, David looked at the situation of the other people.

Laura still used the strengthening potion. The holy light in her body was very powerful, and her physical fitness had already reached a very high level. I thought that the strengthening potion would have no effect on her, but it turned out that her physical fitness was still slightly improved. The Holy Light has also been enhanced.

  Through the verification of Laura, Eva, Helen, and Gwen, David also has a clearer understanding of the effects of strengthening potions.

The physical fitness is already very strong, and after mastering the extraordinary power, after using the strengthening potion, you will still get a certain strengthening effect, and after using the strengthening potion, because it is optimized from the most basic aspects, Laura feels like she has opened a valve , she found that the speed at which her own strength was improving became faster again.

   "It can be understood that the potential has been greatly improved after strengthening."

  Eva, who has mastered a certain amount of extraordinary power, will quickly complete the strengthening, and the mastered energy will also be increased.

   People like Gwen and Helen who seem to be close to the door, because of the stimulation of strengthening potions, may break through that threshold and master some kind of mysterious power.

  At the same time, the energy that has just entered the body will provide sufficient nutrients for the strengthening, making it complete the strengthening in a short time like Laura and Eva, who already possess a certain power.

  Only pure ordinary people or people who are stronger than ordinary people and are still far away from mastering a certain mysterious power will take longer to slowly complete the strengthening like Tony; or use the strengthening chamber to speed up the process.

   After figuring out the specific effect and the difference when different people use it, David knows how to use the remaining few tubes of medicine.

  Give it to Addis first, the old hunter has been living very comfortably recently.

  Since the establishment of Winter City, he no longer has to take a bow and arrow and go to the wild to find prey, no matter spring, summer, autumn and winter, hot summer or cold, as in the past.

After becoming the director of the education department of Winter City, he now only needs to stay in the office to read the report, and occasionally go to Winter College to make sure that the young people of the right age in Winter City have entered the school according to the order of the lord Learning; the courses studied meet the requirements; the students have grown up according to the requirements of the lord.

  This amount of work is almost nothing to Addis. He even feels that this amount of work is not enough to pass the time.

   No worry about food, clothing, or housing.

  Suddenly, Addis found that he had started a happy retirement life.

   "It's really unexpected!"

   All of this is just because I adopted a child in a daze.

   What was even more unexpected was that not only did I eat the strange golden apple, but I was also learning the magical power called Holy Light.

  Although I haven't really mastered it yet! But he didn't have a place to consume the holy light. David didn't consume much of the holy light instilled into his body at the beginning, and he was still enjoying the benefits brought by this magical power.

  He thought that this would be wonderful, but today David suddenly sent him a tube of medicine.

"What is this?"

   "Enhanced Potion."

   "Made by Tony Stark?" In Addis's impression, all the strange things that he couldn't figure out after hearing them were made by the consultant named Tony Stark.

"right."

   "How do you use this thing?" Addis looked at the potion in front of him that was emitting a faint light, and after a few simple questions, he was ready to use it.

  He is not worried that David will harm him, and he has nothing worth plotting! David is already the Duke, and will soon become His Majesty the King.

  Every time he thinks of this, he feels miraculous.

   Back then, the kid who always disobeyed anyone, actually didn’t need to look at anyone’s face anymore. There really are miracles in this world.

After injecting the medicine into the body, the holy light that had not been used much began to be consumed rapidly. Adis felt the wonderful changes in his body. Before he could react to what was going on, he found that the holy light that was about to be consumed in his body suddenly began to grow. .

  At the same time, a certain feeling appeared in his mind, he knew that he had finally truly mastered the Holy Light.

   "Yo, a miracle happened to me too?"

  The strengthening process ended soon, and Adis frowned slightly as he felt the powerful strength he had never had before. It seemed that he had to spend some time to adapt to his current state.

  However, what is this trouble compared to a strong and healthy body and the power you really master?

   "Do you have Alfie's?"

   "There are still two tubes left from the first batch of potion, and Alfie's bloodline may not be suitable for using this potion."

  Alfie is a half-elf, and it is still a question of whether he can use this strengthening potion with elven blood.

   But his talent is good, even without strengthening potions, he should be able to become very strong with only his own efforts.

  David originally wanted to arrange for him to join the Knights of Winter when he grew up, but not long ago Alfie was captured by Sylvanas and entered the Knights of Tiran.

Considering that with the guidance of Sylvanas, the elven ranger lord, Alfie might be able to become an excellent ranger faster, so he did not object, but reminded Alfie not to neglect the cultural lessons, and then smiled Admire Alfie's bitter face.

   Coming out of Addis' office, David was not in a hurry to send out the last two tubes of strengthening potion.

  He really didn't know who to give it to, and besides Tony and Pepper, the people who were currently using the potion were the people closest to David. These people were the first to use the strengthening potion, and no one would think it was unreasonable.

  Who will the rest of the people give the strengthening potion to? Even if David has no special ideas, it cannot guarantee that his subordinates have no ideas.

  This problem is not easy to solve. Instead of causing dissatisfaction among the subordinates, it is better to keep it and wait for a large amount of medicine to be produced, and then give one to the important subordinates. Anyway, the delay will not be long.

  The principle of not worrying about scarcity but about inequality is applicable to any era and any world. David doesn't want to intentionally create conflicts among his subordinates.

  He hasn't reached the point where he needs to play balance to maintain his rule—and, as his strength continues to improve, he doesn't seem to need to use this method.

   Coming out of the government affairs building, David exhaled a mouthful of white mist.

  Winter City in the depths of winter is all white. Even after the ground has been cleaned, there is still a lot of snow around it. David saw two snowmen at the gate of Fort Glamorgan.

   After standing still and thinking for a while, David decided to go for a stroll.

  There is no snow or wind today. Although there is sunshine, there is no warmth. The dry and cold climate is not comfortable, so there are fewer people on the street.

  Even farmers who don’t need to work in winter mostly hide in their own residences or in warm rooms such as taverns to pass the time.

  David's status determines that it is inconvenient for him to go to those places to "have fun with the people", but there are fewer people on the streets, which makes it easier for him to wander around, and his current physical fitness will not be frozen by the cold climate.

  Just walked out of the main entrance of Winter Fortress, and saw Crossbones Rumlow and Wolverine Logan arriving in a car, and got out of the car immediately after seeing him.

   "My lord." This is Rumlow.

  “…” It was Wolverine Logan who nodded.

"came back?"

  These two were sent out to scout the eastern sea before, looking for the home of the orcs, Asegos Island, and investigating various information about the orcs and the **** called Asegos.

"did not find?"

  I came back so quickly, either I didn’t find it, or I found it but there was nothing on the island, so I didn’t even need to search, I just came back.

   "Well, we flew in the eastern sea area for quite a long time, and almost turned around that sea area. Not to mention the larger islands, we didn't even see the smaller reefs."

  Reporting this kind of thing is definitely more appropriate for Rumlow to do it. Logan just followed by, adding when necessary, or making proof when David wanted to verify the content of Rumlow's report.

  According to Rumlow's description, they initially flew north along the coastline according to the orcs, found the ice road that "appeared" in winter, turned east, and flew along the coastline.

  But soon they found that they were flying northward, and the direction did not match the information provided by the orcs, so they immediately turned south and looked for the big island described by the orcs near the 'Ice Road'.

   In the end, nothing was found, which made Rumlow seriously doubt how credible the information provided by the orcs was.

   "According to the description of the orcs, natural disasters have been breaking out in their hometown these years. Maybe that island has sunk into the sea?" Logan speculates that this is the most reasonable explanation at present.

  If it has really sunk to the bottom of the sea, it will be more troublesome to find it, and it may even be impossible to find it again.
