Chapter 426: Nameless Demon
It remains to be seen if Barry will leave a psychological shadow, and perhaps a walk around Winter will allow him to recover a little faster.
It's like Eddard Stark, who met David, the king of Winter, in the front hall and followed his daughter around Winterfell.
The longer he visited, the more he learned about this magical city, and the more amazement he felt in his heart.
"There is such an amazing city in the world."
Because of the rise of shopping, even the time has been forgotten, but fortunately, there is no shortage of hotels in Winterfell - not to mention the Winter Hotel, after Winterfell became more and more prosperous, there were more hotels run by the people themselves.
After staying in the hotel, Ed sighed again: this sumptuous and delicious dinner, clean and comfortable beds, bedding, magical running water, showers, toilets and other facilities, this is actually just a hotel?
What kind of life did His Majesty the King live?
In comparison, the life he lived in Winterfell was like a savage, and the Winterfell that he was proud of was no different from a rural village compared to this Winterfell, right? Maybe it's better than ......
Thinking of this, Ed suddenly felt that it was not a bad thing to let Winterfall rule the Westeros continent, and with the strength that Winterfell mastered, maybe he didn't have to worry about the threat from the north anymore?
In addition, with the richness of Winterfell, it seems that there is no need to worry about the long cold winter that the people of Westeros fear the most?
David doesn't know what Eddard Stark is pondering in the hotel at this time?
After a brief conversation with Tony about Westeros, he was drawn to another thing.
"The design of New Glamorganburg?"
"Yes, Your Majesty."
David looked at Edwin Van Cleeff in front of him, the former leader of the Masons' Guild and the current Minister of Intelligence of the Winter Kingdom, who was not at all shrewd as an intelligence officer, but his eyes were shining, and he was discussing with David what Fort New Glamorganburg should look like.
"Why did you suddenly remember this?"
"Since Natasha and Ethan joined the Intelligence Department, I've had a lot easier, even when it comes to assassins, stealth, and other skills, I've got Vanessa to help with it."
In other words, Black Widow Natasha and fatal gambler Ethan Hunter have freed Edwin Van Cleef from heavy intelligence work, allowing him to pick up his favorite architectural design job again.
"Won't the reconstruction of Irontree Castle satisfy you?"
Irontree Fort is definitely going to be rebuilt, it's a whole new city, how can it feel that Edwin Van Cleef doesn't care much about this big project?
"The rebuilding of Irontree isn't challenging, and it's just a matter of applying Winterfell's infrastructure template."
David listened to Edwin's answer and understood what was going on.
For Edwin Van Cleef, there is nothing challenging about this repetitive work, and it is more interesting than designing a new building.
"Your Majesty, do you have any requirements for a new accommodation?"
"First of all, it has to be big enough, especially the first floor, at least there must be space for the Cybertrons to move freely." David also knew that with the expansion of Winterfell, this Fort Glamorgan was indeed a bit undersighted now.
Building a bigger Fort Glamorgan is a must, and it's not a waste of resources and manpower anyway, and the diggers will complain if they don't work!
"In addition to the high enough empty space on the first floor, the overall building must also be high enough......"
As he spoke, David suddenly remembered a piece of news that he had accidentally seen in his previous life, which was a building in the southwest region known as the White House of the Celestial Empire.
The exterior of the building was to David's liking, and it was close to the current Fort Glamorgan, like an enlarged version. Especially at night, when the lights are turned on, the whole building is covered in a layer of gold, which is a perfect fit for David, who uses the holy light.
Directly copy the exterior of the building, and the layout of the interior can be played at will, for example, in addition to the empty and tall enough in the first floor, you can set aside a large enough room as the main hall to facilitate the room for you to receive outsiders as a king.
Then design a huge conference room that is large enough that the Cybertrons will be able to come to the meeting in person, instead of having to use holograms to 'attend' as they are now, as if they were being ostracized by the other races of Winterfell.
Edwin looked at David, who was getting more and more excited the more he talked, and he didn't expect His Majesty to be more excited than himself when designing his new residence.
What made Edwin feel depressed was that in a few words, His Majesty had already given the overall appearance of the new building.
Fortunately, the specific design is still up to me, otherwise the trip will not be fun.
"When does Your Majesty think it is appropriate to start work?"
"When I fight the temple with the kingdom army, we can start building this new house."
At present, the army of Winterfell is quelling the rebellion in the territory of the former Tilan Kingdom, and when all the lands of the original Tilan Kingdom are collected, he will personally lead the Winter Knights to the Holy Gaunt Kingdom and launch a revenge battle (for Tillan).
At that point, he would stay in the south for a considerable amount of time, enough time for the diggers and craftsmen to finish the construction of the new house.
He was not worried that the Holy Gaunt Kingdom and the Temple would fall too quickly, and that the house would be built before he could collect his troops and return.
The Holy Gaunt Kingdom has been settled, isn't there still the Sodurunma Empire?
Although he made himself look like a war maniac by rampage across the continent of Brunnia with a large army, he had good enough reason to do so—the Sodurunma Empire was chosen as the next target, simply because the orcs were advancing in their rear.
If the orcs land and develop in the territory of the New Ellan Federation, David will fight the New Ellan Federation first.
It's as simple as that, whoever gets in the way of fighting orcs, he will fight whom!
Watching Van Cleef leave, David looked again at the night, which had already been completely dark.
The nights in Winterfell are no longer as dark as they used to be, and every house is lit up except for bright street lights.
As the number of residents of Winterfell increased, the lights had become larger, making Winterfall a little more heady towards the city that never sleeps—the first half of the night, of course.
In the second half of the night, when the lights go out, Winterfell, which is not so rich in nightlife, will still be very quiet.
David sat by the window, looking into the distance, watching the lights in the residential area fade out, but he didn't have the slightest idea of going back to his room to rest.
Nowadays, it doesn't matter if he rests or not, he has always retained his usual routine, just to be more like a person for himself.
It wasn't until most of the residential areas were out of sight, and only occasionally when the lights were still on, did David get up and prepare to go back to his room to rest.
Just as he turned off the lights in his office, thinking about going to Eva? Helen's room? When he went back to his bedroom to rest alone, David suddenly noticed something.
"Huh? It's kind of interesting. ”
Following the induction, David did not go to anyone's room, nor did he go back to his bedroom, but came to the rooftop.
The cold wind blew across his face, but David, who was wearing only a shirt, didn't care.
After scanning the empty rooftop to make sure there were no additional guests, David's gaze lingered on an unusually dark corner.
It was as if it had been splashed with a cloud of ink, black enough to swallow up all colors.
"Is that you? The guy who 'invited' me over. ”
"Interesting." The shadow slowly changed, eventually transforming into a humanoid creature with a bumpy body.
Davy looked at the creature in front of him with red skin and a pair of bat wings on its head and horns on its head, and the word 'demon' immediately crossed his mind.
The other party was wearing black armor with 'high defense', so high that David's eyes were red, and he didn't know which position to attack first for a while.
"It's no wonder that you can get out of my control, so it's no wonder you sent me so far away."
"Oh?"
David was trying to take advantage of the situation to say a few words and gather some information, but the demon on the opposite side did not play his cards according to the routine at all, and released a dark red fireball full of strange power with a wave of his hand.
This is just the beginning, after sending out the fireball, the red-skinned female demon didn't know where to draw a huge scythe, and then her wings spread out, and moved behind David at a very alarming speed, ready to take advantage of the opponent's parry of the fireball in front of her, directly slash the target with a scythe.
Rumble!
While!
The fireball exploded, and the scythe slashed hard at David's cheek.
But the blood splash that the demon expected did not happen, neither the fireball released by himself nor the scythe in his hand caused any damage to the 'human' in front of him.
"Oops!"
After discovering that the other party could break free from her control and realizing that the target was more dangerous than she expected, the female demon had raised the threat level of the target to the highest level.
Otherwise, he will not give up his favorite plan to play with his prey, and directly kill it with all his might.
Unexpectedly, this person was even more dangerous than she judged, and she didn't even break the opponent's skin with all her strength, this kind of enemy was not something she could deal with at all.
"Run!"
Seeing that the situation was not right, the female demon immediately wanted to escape.
But no sooner had her thoughts risen than she felt her head grasped by a hand with terrifying power.
In the next second, the world is spinning!
Then, his head made close contact with a piece of ground that glowed with golden light.
"Ah~"
Her face felt as if it had been burned by the flames, and as she opened her mouth to scream, the demon's entire body was wrapped in the sacred fire, which became the raw material for the fierce burning of the sacred fire.
There was no screaming this time, with David's current strength, the divine fire he released was so powerful that a little demon could not withstand it at all.
The moment the flames ignited, the demon was already burned to ashes.
