Age of Empires From Scratch

"Is David in the office?"

Eva looked up at the person who came, and greeted him with a smile: "It's Gwen, I haven't seen you much recently? Are you taking the exam?"

"No, it was delayed by other things."

While Gwen answered Eva's words, she pointed to the door of the office with her finger, and then saw Eva wave her hand lightly, indicating that David was not there.

"Out? This time?"

She deliberately checked the time. If she read it correctly, she will have dinner later, right?

"Have you had dinner yet?"

"not yet."

"Then let's eat together!" Eva took care of everything at hand, and walked towards the restaurant with Gwen. Usually, she would greet the people staying in Glamorgan Castle.

Such as Helen, Sophia, Hood, etc., but today Eva didn't call anyone.

As if guessing that Gwen would ask, Eva explained directly: "Helen went back to Sparta to visit relatives these few days; Hood went to the naval base and didn't stay in Glamorgan Castle... But she should Will head to the restaurant for dinner."

In addition, Belfast, as a competent butler, was already busy in the restaurant, so there was no need for Eva to shout.

Laura belongs to the category of elusive and mysterious. If she doesn't use the communicator to ask, Eva can't be sure where Laura will be.

And there is no need to use the communicator to find such small things as eating. Laura will naturally appear when she comes back to eat.

After listening for a while, Gwen was keenly aware of the important point: Eva didn't mention Sophia, the princess of the Kingdom of Tilan, but she is 'resident' in Glamorgan Castle, and she has no other place to go... Oh, No, her parents are also in Winter City now, did they go to see them?

When Gwen guessed this, she had already arrived at the restaurant and sat down.

Sure enough, it didn't take long for Laura to appear. Surprisingly, she also invited Sylvanas to Glamorgan Castle as a guest.

However, Hood did not come back. Belfast said that Hood had greeted him before, stayed at the naval base for dinner, and then continued to teach the naval soldiers modern naval warfare theory.

"Where's David?"

Laura looked around and found that David hadn't come out, and Sophia hadn't shown up either. She immediately thought of something, and then looked directly at Eva.

Eva nodded, and Laura immediately acted like a hostess when she saw this: "That's it, then you don't have to wait for them."

Although they didn't say it directly, everyone present immediately understood what happened.

Gwen was stunned for two seconds, then picked up the knife and fork and began to enjoy her dinner. She has gradually gotten used to this situation, not to mention that Sophia became David's woman, which has already been determined, and there is no surprise at all. tangled.

However, recently, I had finally finished my work and came to find David, but it turned out that David was with someone else. It would be impossible to say that he was not at all unhappy in his heart.

After a few dips of the fork into the steak in front of her, Gwen caught Laura's attention.

"Gwen, do you want me to accompany you tonight?"

"ah?"

"David is busy, but I'm free!"

"This... No need!" Gwen suddenly felt the hairs on her body stand on end, and a huge sense of crisis filled her whole body. She felt that if she agreed, she would be in bad luck today.

"What a pity." Laura licked her lower lip lightly, frightened Gwen to lower her head and eat quietly, but the little dissatisfaction in her stomach had long since been forgotten by her in a corner.

Laura smiled triumphantly, put the fish on the fork into her mouth, and continued to chat with Eva and Sylvanas about various things in Winter City, interspersed with some recent rumors.

Of course, David was also one of the topics they discussed, but they mainly talked about what David was going to do next.

As for what David is doing now...he is teaching Sophia with all his heart.

Today, David is going to give Sophia a driving lesson. Considering that Sophia has completed the study of theoretical knowledge, David began to guide Sophia in practical operations.

Before driving, you must carefully check the whole car, especially the front and rear lights and exhaust pipes.

Since I was driving a new car today, the headlights were bright and intact, and the dual exhaust pipes were extremely clean. David couldn't wait to teach Sofia how to start the car correctly.

Also because of the new car, the engine quickly entered the state. After David determined that there was no need to add additional oil, he began to instruct Sofia on how to start the car, shift gears, refuel, slow down, downshift, and turn on the turn signal.

Although she was a bit stumbling and unskilled at first, Sophia quickly found the feeling and drove steadily at a relatively slow and constant speed.

Seeing that Sofia is learning at a good speed, and her enthusiasm is gradually increasing, David began to teach her how to refuel, speed up, and set the gear to the highest, and then run for two hours first.

However, after all, he was a novice on the road, and he was already a little nervous. After learning so many things at once, it was not so easy to digest.

In addition, I didn't have any experience before, not only my mind was tense, but my muscles were also tense. However, after driving for less than an hour, both feet cramped once.

Had it not been for David's experience and responsiveness, Sophia's first drive would have had a bad memory.

More than an hour later, the exhausted Sophia was covered in sweat, her blond hair was drenched, and her normally round eyes were half-squeezed, making it hard to tell if they were about to close at any time. Still shed tears anytime.

Seeing Sophia in front of him not so clear-headed, but still entangled with him like an octopus, David reached out and stroked her hair gently, and rubbed the back of her hair with the other hand repeatedly. back.

"If you're tired, just go to sleep!"

"Um……"

He seemed to be muttering something vaguely, but David didn't hear a word clearly. When he looked again, he found that Sophia had fallen asleep, so he honestly acted as a pillow and waited quietly for Sophia to wake up.

After one night.

Sophia, who had already woken up, didn't get off David, and wanted to review what she just learned yesterday, but the jerky shifting of gears and the clutches that couldn't find the right timing fully exposed the fact that she was a rookie driver. .

After messing around all morning, by the time David finished washing and dressing, the sun was already at its highest point.

"It's already noon."

Sophia has already cleaned herself up and changed into the clothes she usually wears, but her feet are fluttering when she walks, and she can only walk slowly.

"You'd better stay in your room and have a good rest!"

"Shouldn't it be necessary?"

Sophia originally thought that she was young and in good health, and David was very gentle with herself. She didn't teach herself any strange knowledge, and she didn't have any serious physical discomfort, so she should be able to act normally.

In the end, she tried to walk from the dressing room to the bedroom door, but it took her a long time to get there. She realized that she couldn't go anywhere today, and it was better to just stay in the room and rest.

At this moment, Sophia suddenly understood why those 'sisters' could not see anyone at all times, and could only lie down in their own room.

She was a little curious, did Laura, who was the first to be with David, not mind if David found someone else because she couldn't bear this guy alone?

Thinking of Laura, Laura came running.

After knocking on the door to show her identity, as David opened the door, Laura's face appeared in Sofia's sight, looking at herself with a weird smile on her face.

"Huh? You actually woke up."

"..."

David was speechless, and was about to say something, but was pushed out of the room by Laura: "Okay, you still have your own affairs to be busy, right? Let Sofia take care of us!"

"us?"

David turned his head and saw Gwen and Eva standing beside him, and then walked into the room one by one. Before David could ask anything, the door was slammed shut.

Looking at the closed door, David thought about it for two seconds, but he didn't show any strong intention to go in and have a look.

He has been with a few people for so long, and he already has enough tacit understanding with each other. He knows that Laura and the others are really here to take care of Sofia, and may give Sofia some "science", such as about how many animals he has. , more livestock' and the like.

He didn't mind this. After all, not everyone had the extraordinary curiosity, thirst for knowledge, and psychological endurance like Laura. Some things were only acceptable to Laura, while the others were more or less resistant.

Laura should have come to remind Sophia that not everything needs to be endured in silence, and if you don’t like it, you can just say it out, David can understand it—this kind of thing, if Laura reminds Sophia, it will definitely be more effective than David saying it himself.

Back in the office, David suddenly realized that he had nothing to deal with today, so he left the office and went to the practice room.

Because he will go to Azeroth to attend the succession ceremony of Calia Menethil in a while, it is inconvenient for him to run around, so he simply takes advantage of his free time to use alchemy, the body of Cybertron and his own weapon Make another upgrade.

He hasn't studied the double-headed war blade that he brought back from the Marvel universe! Besides that there are many alloys.

If this material can be integrated into his Cybertron body, weapons and armor, his strength can be improved again.

"By the way, can I also change the form of the fighter?"

Although the Tomcat fighter is very handsome, it is 'too old' after all. He began to consider changing his fighter form to a VF fighter.

Is the choice of VF-25 Messiah? Or YF-29 Durandal?

Originally, VF-27 Lucifer was also an option, but after handing over the data to Arcee, David was not going to use this appearance, he didn't like to use the same template as others.

"Let's use YF-29 Durandal as the new appearance..."
