Chapter 44: Fordin's Iron Ambition
Steve's special is much more than what David says, but there are some things that are inconvenient to say now.
Fortunately, Steve himself didn't struggle with whether he was overly concerned about whether he was overly overly calculated, and talked to David about other things.
After seventy years of sleep, Steve had a hard time adapting to the changes in the world, so he was curious about one thing for David: "Do you feel anything special when you find that the world is completely different from the world you know?" β
In his eyes, David and his own situation are somewhat similar, both in the blink of an eye, and the world suddenly changes.
Steve has been asleep for seventy years, and the world has been constantly changing during these seventy years; David was surrounded by people from other worlds, bringing with them unfamiliar knowledge, unfamiliar objects, and cultures that David had never been exposed to.
In Steve's observations, David adapted well to this unfamiliar knowledge, as he began to think about building various public facilities for the village.
"Nothing special." Of course, David doesn't have any special feelings, and the things that seem to be strange to him in the eyes of outsiders are things that he used to be extremely familiar with, but he can't explain this directly to people, so he has to use his brain to think of some suitable words to deal with this kind of scene: "After all, there are many things that I don't know about this world in the first place." β
"Oh?" Steve was stunned, he had never thought about it.
"I'm just a civilian hunter in Irontree, not to mention the whole world, even if it's close at hand, what is the inner city of Irontree Castle like? I don't even know. David's words were not fabricated falsehoods, but were convincing: "What kind of life did the nobles live? What kind of magical power does the legendary mage have? I don't know any of that. β
For David, this world is very huge, and there are a lot of things he doesn't understand, even if you add what Laura and Ferdin's bring are what?
Then he used Laura as an example: "Except for me, Laura is the same. Before she was shipwrecked and met Himiko, she also didn't know that there was a magical power in the world she lived in. β
Compared to the many unknown secrets that exist in the huge world, the little thing he knows is nothing, if it is not difficult to say it directly, David really wants to use the Marvel Universe where Captain America Steve lives as an example, after all, there are a lot of messy things in his world.
So there is no need for Steve to worry about the world becoming stranger, he has never really been familiar with it: "Maybe the world you live in is completely different from what you think." β
"You have a point." Listening to David's words, Steve also figured out a lot.
yes, does he really understand the world he originally lived in? Is that world really what he thought it was? Perhaps his understanding was just what he thought.
Not to mention anything else, through contact with Peggy and Sharon in the past few days, he has vaguely noticed some situations: his world may be hiding a lot of secrets.
Because Peggy saw Hydra summon a giant monster with her own eyes; Sharon also vaguely mentioned that even after the war ended, as Captain America, he was not idle, and he still solved all kinds of troubles as Captain America.
"The world is a big world, and it's always a matter of constant exploration, and new discoveries aren't necessarily bad, like the futon that Laura sent you, it's much more comfortable to lie on than to lie directly on the ground or on a wooden board."
David's words made Steve's mood a lot better, especially the last few sentences, which seemed to hit someone in Steve's heart, and it was not necessarily bad to listen to him again.
"To be honest, I'm not really used to the soft bed, but I'm more comfortable with the wooden bed here."
"Is that why you come here every day? Love a hard plank bed? β
"For now, sort of!" Steve's expression looked much better, and his whole person's spirit became different from when he first came: "Nice to chat with you, David!" I went over there to help, something called me! β
"Feel free to chat with me if you need to!" David got up and shook hands with Steve, looking at the gratitude on the other side's face, he knew that after a few days in Winter Village, the American Captain Steve Rogers recognized him and regarded him as a friend.
Just as Steve turned to leave, helping the villagers build their houses, David felt what seemed to happen to his body? In particular, the holy light in his body skyrocketed a lot in an instant.
"What's going on?"
The holy light in his body increased dramatically but nothing abnormal happened, and David regained his calm with just a thought, and at the same time, he felt that his head had become much clearer.
David had already reacted to what was going on at this time, and because he had established an initial friendship with Steve, he received a reward from the other party.
Slightly surprised, what he received was not a physical reward, but a mental oneβbecause it was a spiritual enhancement, David immediately figured out the specific situation.
Not only did the Holy Light in the body increase dramatically, but even the quality of the body increased significantly; At the same time, his spirit was strengthened, making it easier for David to mobilize the Holy Light.
In addition to this, his memory seems to have become better, and he can recall the details of many events in his past life more easily.
"The most commendable thing about Captain America is his strong mental will, and it doesn't seem strange to be rewarded for this."
As for not getting a physical fitness reward? This is not a loss at all for David.
Not to mention that there are still two captains in the village waiting for him to attack, for him now, as long as the holy light continues to improve, his physical fitness will continue to improve, in addition to the holy light's 'washing' will improve his physical fitness, he can also squeeze his physical potential more unscrupulously.
Just when David was looking for a place to work out and make his physical fitness more explosive, Laura had already returned from home.
"What are you doing here?" Standing next to Davy and watching him stupidly pose in various bodybuilding poses, Laura finally couldn't help but speak: "Dissatisfied with your figure after meeting Steve?" β
"How is that possible!" David looked back at Laura and withdrew his raised arms, "I was just wondering, if I keep exercising, will I become like Tirio?" β
ββ¦β¦β
Ferdin's figure is probably the most exaggerated in the entire Winter Village, Captain America Steve can be called thin compared to him, and his strong muscles make Ferding look like a cube at times.
After making up for the fact that David also had the same exaggerated muscles as Fordin, Laura suddenly felt that the picture was not pretty: "I think it's better for you not to train like that, Tirio's muscles are too exaggerated." β
"Exaggerated? I'm a symbol of strength, and I think David is still too thin to be a proper paladin in Azeroth, so he can only continue to be a priest. Pushing open the door, Fording walked out of his wooden house, and commented on David's figure by the way: "You don't have enough strength, even if you practice the skills of using various weapons, it is not of much use, and you can only use it to bully the weak." β
In Fordin's opinion, if you can't handle a heavy hammer and a propeller with one hand, you don't deserve to be called a warrior, and how can you fight enemies like orcs and trolls without enough strength?
David couldn't refute this, he knew that the human warriors of Azeroth were able to fight orcs and trolls on the battlefield with their own strength, and even in the first war, human warriors still had the absolute upper hand with their equipment - unlike the plot in the movie, when the first human-orc war broke out in the game world, humans were not physically inferior.
Thinking of the picture of holding the orc above his head with one hand, and then throwing it more than ten meters away, David had the urge to exercise hard again.
Fortunately, at this time, Ferding took the initiative to change the topic and made a request to Laura: "By the way, next time I will help bring a few more war movies." β
"No problem!"
Listening to the conversation between the two, David realized that Foding got up so late today because he watched the movie too late last night: "War movie? β
"After watching Band of Brothers with Mark, I became interested in these kinds of movies, so I asked Laura to help find a few." In addition to movies and TV series, in addition to cutting trees, Ferding watches these films when he rests: "By the way, if you can, there are also these books to help me find them." β
He took out another note and handed it to Laura, David looked at it curiously, and saw that it was written with names such as "The Art of War", "On War", "On Strategy", "On Sea Power", and "On Air Power".
"These are easy to do, do you want an English version?"
Ferding thought about it, and finally said that he wanted the original text, and as for the corresponding language textbook, he remembered that David had it there.
"In that case, it might take a few more days."
"It's okay, I'm not in a hurry."
David, who was standing by and witnessing all this, had in his mind endless images of natural disaster soldiers being bombed by aircraft and artillery, and tanks being burned by soldiers with flamethrowers after being pushed flat, although he knew that this kind of picture was very nonsense, after all, Fording couldn't bring a base car back to Azeroth, even if he knew how to play, there was no corresponding industrial system.
"Why do you think it's a pity? If I could, I'd love to see it with my own eyes. β
Suddenly reacting wrongly, David remembered that the level of technology in Azeroth was actually not low, and the gnomes, goblins, and dwarves had a lot of black technology in their hands.
"So...... Is this really possible? β
