Age of Empires From Scratch

  Chapter 8 Village Name

  After briefly introducing the spell effects she cast on Laura, Laura's face was full of surprise and curiosity: It seemed that she couldn't wait to try it and see if this so-called holy light was really so magical?

   Watching Laura disappear again, David turned his head and looked at Fording standing next to him: "Maybe I won't be able to rest tonight."

  The plot on Laura's side has officially started, and there will be continuous fighting in the next few days, which means that Laura may come to ask for help at any time.

   "It doesn't matter, I'm used to similar situations." Fording didn't think it was a big deal: "Prepare more water and food, and maybe some bandages and medicines."

   Clear water and food are easy to understand. After a series of battles, Laura definitely needs to supplement food and water. But are the medicines and bandages still available? As long as Laura can walk in front of David and Fording smoothly, no matter how many injuries she suffers, she can be healed by the Holy Light in a short time.

   After thinking for a few seconds, David realized that the medicine and bandages were not for Laura, but for Laura's partners.

   As far as the current situation is concerned, whether it is coming to him or leaving to return to the original world, there is no way to bring people, so even if Laura's partner is injured, there is no way to come to David and Fording for treatment, so naturally he must rely on drugs.

   "I'll take out all the medicines first, so that Laura can take them away when she needs them."

   Fording is going to go to the river to get more water and come back. By the way, he also mentioned that there is currently a lack of important facilities in the village: a well.

   In this regard, David can only helplessly spread his hands: his village lacks a lot of facilities. It can’t be said that there is nothing, it can also be said that there is nothing you want! Including water wells, all kinds of facilities are only on the schedule.

  Put the carcasses of a few wolves in the warehouse first, and after simply processing the berries, David continued to make dinner with venison.

   Wait until the venison, mushrooms, and a bit of berries have been thrown into the pot to cook before turning back to the carcasses of the wolves.

   By the time he was done with all kinds of things, Fording had already run a few times back and forth between the village and the river, filling up all the utensils used to store clean water.

   Then he lit a bonfire in the wooden house where he lived, and watched David come into the house with a pot full of stew.

  Eating stew, listening to Fording continue to explain the knowledge of the Holy Light, and waiting for Laura who may come at any time, this night should be the most fulfilling night that David has spent in two years.

In the past two years, at the beginning, at night, I could still chat and fart with my friends and look forward to a bright future; but as time went by, as the living conditions became worse and worse, there were fewer and fewer friends around me. The one left is not in the mood to chat.

  Every night became the most difficult time, until David was left alone, and the difficulty reached its peak.

   Unexpectedly, it was at this time that David waited for a turning point. He not only ushered in new partners, but even mastered various magical abilities.

  Especially the knowledge of the Holy Light that he is learning at the moment, he could only enjoy it in the game in his previous life, but this time he can personally experience and display this magical power.

"You have a high affinity with the Holy Light, and you have a thorough understanding of the Holy Light, and your progress is very fast." After teaching for a while, Fording once again lamented David's talent. If David's progress The speed has always been so fast, and it won't be long before he surpasses himself in the attainments of the Holy Light.

If this kind of words were told to the people in the world of Azeroth, most of them would not believe it. After all, Fording was one of the first five paladins, and their accomplishments in the holy light have long been recognized by the intelligent life in the whole world. recognized.

   is such a powerful existence, but thinks that David will soon surpass himself, which shows how amazing David's talent is.

It was only the first day of learning the Holy Light, and David was already able to use this power very well. By the way, he also learned how to use the Holy Light to heal, eliminate diseases, use the Holy Light to protect himself or others, and use the Holy Light to increase his own strength. Or other people's physical strength, using holy light to attack directly, etc.

   "I'm a fast learner?" David looked at the golden energy held in his palm, even though he knew it was the power of cheating, he still couldn't help feeling a little proud.

   "This speed of progress is not just fast." Fording praised David sincerely: "Actually, most priests who have just graduated may not understand the Holy Light as well as you."

   That is to say, it took less than a day for David to become a qualified novice priest from a layman of the Holy Light.

"The rest is persistent practice." Fording originally wanted to say something, so that David would not become too complacent and become slack, but in the end he stopped talking. In addition to wanting to see David's heart, he also wanted to say something. There is a reason why Laura came: "If you use it more, you will naturally have more insights."

  David also turned his head to look at Laura who opened the door and walked in. He could clearly feel that the holy light he had applied to Laura before had been consumed.

   "Seems to be going well."

  Except for the consumption of the Holy Light, Laura's body was not damaged at all, not even stained with dust and dirt, and she had a smile on her face.

   "Have you dealt with those robbers?"

   "Although it has not been completely resolved, the immediate crisis has finally been dealt with." Laura put the hunting bow and quiver in her hand next to David: "This is the bow and arrow I borrowed from you just now."

  In addition to the bow and arrow placed beside David, Laura also carried another bow and arrow on her back, a large bag in the other hand, and a pistol in her waist. Apparently, in addition to retrieving the previously stolen weapon, she also got some extra loot.

   "I came here this time mainly to put these things here with you."

Putting down the big bag in his hand, he explained to David what was inside: "This is a pistol, these are bullets... a pistol is a weapon that can shoot this... this is this kind of bullet, you must not put it The muzzle of the gun is right here facing myself..."

   "..."

  David listened to Laura talking about all kinds of precautions, and at the same time put on a look of ‘oh~ it’s amazing! ’ appearance.

  Compared to Fording next to him, he was much more 'dedicated'. After understanding what it was through David's translation, he sighed from the bottom of his heart: "A very delicate musket!"

   After talking about various precautions, Laura is ready to start again after bringing enough ammunition. Before leaving, she still asked cautiously: "Can you still use the spell you used earlier?"

"sure."

  Hearing David's answer, the smile on Laura's face became brighter, and she felt more stable now.

  After having a personal experience, she realized that as long as she is protected by the Holy Light spell cast by David, she is fearless!

After a brief mouthful of broth and some water, watching David raise his hand and release pieces of golden light, then the light condensed on his body for a while and then gradually disappeared. Laura, who was full of confidence, waved goodbye again, holding her head high left.

  Looking at the back of Laura leaving, David casually mourned for the members of the Brotherhood of the Sun for two seconds in his heart, and then chatted with Fording while tinkering with the guns Laura brought back.

   There is a mysterious power on the island where Laura is in trouble, which will destroy the planes and ships that break into the surrounding sea area intentionally or unintentionally, so survivors who have been in distress have been living on the island for countless years.

  These people have all kinds of identities, and there is no shortage of people or teams with weapons. In addition, the Japanese army also sent troops to station on the island during World War II, so there is no shortage of guns and ammunition on the island.

   The pack that Laura brought back only had three pistols and bullets, not a long gun.

   After tinkering a few times and figuring out how to operate it, David couldn't help but think about it: I wonder if it is possible to attach holy light to the bullet when shooting? What effect will it have?

   "You can try it after dawn tomorrow."

  As for now...Laura just left, so she shouldn't come back right away.

sleep? He is so energetic now that he can't sleep at all!

   Continue to learn the knowledge of the Holy Light? Fording just said that the next important thing is to practice hard. It is estimated that it is difficult to understand more advanced knowledge before he has more insights.

   So what else can you do?

  Suddenly remembered the topic of the day, and just brought it up for discussion.

   "Tirion, what do you think is a better name for the village?"

   Fording, who was tinkering with pistols, was a little stunned when he heard David's question: "What is the name of the village, it seems to be up to you to decide?"

In the eyes of Tirion Fording, this village is David's territory, and the power of naming is naturally in David's hands. Whatever David wants to call the village, then call it: "And you have lived here for a while. Time, you should think of a few names, right?"

   Fording guessed that David didn't have a name, but he didn't know which name to choose?

   "A few names do come to mind."

  David's words made Fording secretly think that it was true, and then asked what their names were? I can give some advice to David for reference.

   "Niujia Village."

   "Sounds a little weird."

  David muttered secretly, ‘This is the center of the universe! ’ But thinking about such a domineering name, I’m afraid I can’t use it indiscriminately.

   "Ivory Mountain."

   Fording was stunned: "The nearest mountain is the peak in the north, right? With this name, the village is too far away from the mountain, right?"

   "Konoha Village."

   "This one sounds good."

   "..."

  Seeing David's sudden silence, Fording looked strange: "What's wrong? What's wrong with this name?"

   "Suddenly felt that this name is not very auspicious." If you use this name, will you die suddenly, and you won't even be able to keep a descendant?

  Besides, David didn't really want to use these names. He just said a few village names casually, so as to make his thoughts active, and then chose a name that fit the situation according to the characteristics of this place.

   "It's located in the north...it's freezing cold...I suddenly thought of a more inauspicious name."
