Age of Empires From Scratch - Chapter 529

[Chapter 526 Asking Mr. Earl for a Small Favor]

After parking the car and walking to the training ground, the female students were doing physical fitness and obstacle training. The appearance of Hu Huishan made the female students who were so relaxed just now put away their smiles.

Hu Huishan was very dignified among the students. She could still make a few jokes during breaks, but she didn’t dare to make any jokes during training.

After being punished by the instructor several times, every time Instructor Hu appeared, the female students would put in 120% of their energy, not seeking praise, but hoping not to be scolded.

However, this time there were still a few naughty students who whispered about David and another strange man beside Instructor Hu.

“Hey, isn’t that the instructor’s handsome neighbor? He actually brought him to the training base?”

Most of the female students had seen David when they helped Hu Huishan to clean up the new home, and the few who hadn’t seen him also heard about this person from their teammates.

Later, after hearing about David again from Moon, Ren Tingting, and Karen, David’s name was already well-known among the female queens.

Of course, most people didn’t believe what Moon said about zombies, thinking that Moon and Karen were joking and trying to scare everyone.

In comparison, they were more curious about how far their instructor and that handsome guy had developed?

Before they could discuss a result, they saw David at the training ground.

“Is the instructor going to announce the good news?”

“Tsk, you’re too outrageous, right?”

“Otherwise, why would the instructor bring him here to show us? Isn’t it to tell everyone that he has taken down David, so that some people will stop dreaming!”

“Although it sounds very outrageous, it somehow makes sense.”

“…”

As for the other man, he was collectively ignored by the group of female queens.

Jack, who didn’t know he was being ignored, looked at the girls curiously, watching them finish the obstacle course run skillfully and quickly. By the way, he compared them with the Flying Tigers in the training ground not far away. He had to admit that the strength of these girls was indeed good.

“Seeing that the special police you trained have such strength, I think this cooperation should go smoothly.”

“I thought you would have to fight me in person before you would be really relieved.” Hu Huishan was ready to fight Jack.

As for David? She saw David take action twice with her own eyes. The first time, he punched away a zombie, and the power alone was amazing enough; the second time, he easily knocked down several strong men. From the way David looked when he took action, he obviously didn’t use his full strength. In other

words, David’s true strength is very terrifying, and she must be sick in the head to challenge him.

It was because of her recognition of David’s strength that Hu Huishan hired David to help her rescue Allen. It was not like what David thought, that she simply wanted to take advantage of David’s “connections” in Europe.

After watching the training programs from cross-country obstacle running to shooting to high-rise rappelling and coordinated attack, Jack also admitted that this group of delicate girls was indeed a special police team that could be compared with the Flying Tigers.

“It’s a pity that we are in Europe this time, otherwise with the backup of the Queen of Flowers, we would definitely be able to rescue Allen smoothly.”

After the tour, Jack was ready to leave. Next, he would wait quietly to see if the so-called Church of Everything would contact him.

Of course, he also had to make preparations for both situations and contact his acquaintances in Europe to see if he could get some information.

“By the way, you should also make some preparations during this period! As long as there is news, no matter which side it comes from, we will set off immediately.”

Jack meant that Hu Huishan and David should pack up their things and bring all their documents to fly to Europe at any time.

He just didn’t expect that David would understand his so-called preparation like this.

“Isn’t it a bit exaggerated?”

“Not really?”

David looked at the special plane that they had chartered and didn’t think it was exaggerated. Wasn’t Jack’s so-called preparation this what he meant?

“Do you want to get a military transport plane? This is quite difficult.”

“…”

Jack felt that he couldn’t keep up with David’s thinking. Was he old?

He thought it was exaggerated that David suddenly got a private plane, but the other party thought that not getting a military transport plane was very low-key.

Who is this guy? Can military planes be mobilized at will?

In fact, David has no way to mobilize military transport planes at will, but it doesn’t prevent him from bragging!

“Forget it, let’s talk about the action plan after arriving in Europe!”

Before leaving, Jack received a message from the Church of Everything. The other party did not use communication equipment, but directly stuffed a letter through the door into Jack’s hotel room.

In addition to the photo proving that Allen is currently safe and sound, the content of the letter is very simple and direct: If you want your friend to return home safely, you have to exchange three pieces of God’s Armor.

“The other party wants three pieces of God’s Armor, and I happen to know where these three pieces of God’s Armor are.”

“Where?”

“These three pieces of God’s Armor have been bought by a count.” Jack was silent for two seconds: “I have some friendship with that count. I wonder if I can lend the three pieces of God’s Armor to lure out that person from the Church of Everything.”

David and Hu Huishan did not object, and Jack’s plan seemed to have no problem.

If there was a problem, there was only one: “Will the earl be willing to lend you such a valuable antique to redeem someone?”

Hu Huishan’s question made Jack look embarrassed, but after thinking for a while, he felt that there was still some hope of success: “There are five God’s Armor in total, and the people of the All Things Church only need three, which proves that the other two are in their hands.”

Jack thought about it and felt that if he wanted to persuade the earl to help, he would have the best chance of success by offering this kind of bargaining chip: “When the time comes, I promise to hand over the entire set of God’s Armor to the earl, which should be able to exchange for his help.”

In this world, only talking about feelings often hurts feelings, but if you talk purely about interests, you can actually negotiate a lot of things.

“This is a good idea, let’s do it!” It takes

more than twelve hours to fly from Hong Kong to Europe. This long-distance flight is not very comfortable, even if you take a private plane.

When they arrived at the place, they went directly to the hotel to rest for a day, and the next day they went to see the earl in high spirits.

Jack was not bragging, he had a really good relationship with the earl.

However, David felt that the one who really had a good relationship with Jack was the earl’s daughter.

“This is Suvia. I met Mr. Count through her.” Jack and Suvia looked at each other. They said nothing, but it seemed that they had said everything.

David and Hu Huishan looked at each other and felt that this matter could be negotiated today. With such a strong relationship between Jack and the Count’s daughter, what was the big deal of borrowing a few antiques?

Sure enough, when the Count heard that Jack wanted to borrow God’s Armor to save his friend, he simply bargained. After hearing that Jack promised that he would not only return the three God’s Armor intact, but also give two more, the Count immediately agreed.

Just when they were very satisfied and wanted to open a bottle of champagne to celebrate in advance, David suddenly said: Because this trip might involve a fight with a certain religious force, and they had just come to Europe from the distant Hong Kong, they were short of handy things, so they asked Mr. Count to support some weapons and equipment. This request is normal, right?

“Oh, that’s not a big deal. I can provide you with some equipment.”

“That would be great. Here’s the list.” David took out the list he had prepared in advance and handed it over. This behavior stunned everyone else.

The Earl took the list in surprise. He didn’t care much at first, but when he saw the content clearly, he found that this matter didn’t seem to be as simple as he thought.

“Pistols, rifles, grenades, explosives and even bazookas can all be understood, but Harrier fighters and Hind armed helicopters…”

“…”

The few people who were originally just surprised that David suddenly asked for weapons were completely stunned after hearing what the Earl said.

Hu Huishan thought that David just wanted some guns and ammunition, and at most some explosives.

Jack thought that David just wanted a few pistols, and an extra fast car to facilitate their escape.

Neither of them thought that the list David gave was so exaggerated.

Long guns and rocket launchers are already nonsense enough, but there are also fighters and armed helicopters?

What is David going to do? Fight a war?

“After all, they are a group of fanatics who dare to cross half the world to kidnap. In a way, we do have to be prepared to fight them.”

“…” Jack still didn’t understand: “But this is too exaggerated!”

“I don’t think it’s exaggerated at all.”

“Then you must be mentally ill.”

“No, I’m making full preparations.”

Su Weiya was originally flirting with Jack. After hearing what his father read out, he curiously moved to his father’s side and took a look at the contents of the list.

Sure enough, the names of the Harrier fighter and the Hind attack helicopter were written on it.

There are also Black Hawk helicopters, but the Count did not say it. She looked at these equipment and felt that they were too exaggerated: “Even if I can help you get these equipment, you can’t find a trustworthy pilot in a short time, right?”

“I just want the equipment, I will solve the problem of pilots.”

The Count held the list in his hand, and suddenly found this matter quite interesting. He became more curious about the handsome young man in front of him: “The Harrier fighter and Black Hawk helicopter are not easy to get, but I can just ‘borrow’ the Doe. Are you sure you really need it?”

“That’s great. By the way, make sure to fill up the weapons and ammunition.”

“I’ll try my best!” The Count put the list aside: “Except for the Doe, I can provide the rest of the guns and grenades.”

Meaning, don’t think about the Harrier and Black Hawk other than the Doe.

“Okay, it’s barely enough.”

“…”
