Chapter 26: The chef drugged me. Is it reasonable?
The Deerhawk is a half-deer, half-bird monster with the wings and body of a raptor and the head of a male deer. It feeds on a variety of meats, with a particular preference for the hearts of humanoids.
Some scholars believe that this terrifying beast was transformed from travelers who died in a foreign land. They are enemies of humans, and once they appear, they will be regarded as a serious problem by the nobles, who will send knights or hire adventurers to destroy them.
“Isn’t White Night City the place we passed by before? We also killed the Demon Flame Sheep near there.”
On the way back to the Lord’s Mansion to discuss countermeasures, Gray remembered the Bai Yecheng looked at Yeats because of the familiar reason.
Yeats said: "For situations like Baiye City where nobles neglect their duties and cause harm to the surrounding areas, are there any corresponding regulations in the code?"
"Of course there are! The King's Charter clearly states that before the law, let alone nobles, Even kings are equal. Bai Ye City's negligence has damaged our land and property in Chenshuang Ridge, so after we destroy the deer eagle beast, Bai Ye City must not only provide remuneration, but also provide compensation!"
Gray put her hands on her hips and felt confident.
Yeats: Σ(Д;)
I really don’t know how Gray’s little brain remembers these regulations!
Facing Yeats' shocked gaze, Gray raised her head proudly.
“I worked very hard in order to learn the laws of mankind.”
Yeats: “…”
Actually, Gray Her life experience has been almost explained in the plot of "Phantom Wings". She has been isolated from the world since she was a child. In order to integrate into human society, the Code became the first set of teaching materials in her life.
As a dragon descendant, Gray obviously has dragon blood, but he knows his own laws better than humans. He is simply a dragon spy who has infiltrated into human society! (fog)
Return to the Lord's Mansion.
In the office.
"Derek, how much do you know about the lords of White Night City?"
Yeats asked carefully about the ins and outs of the matter. This deer-eagle beast with a height of two rings must be eradicated, and as much as possible To avoid casualties, no details on all parties should be left out.
Beside the burning fireplace, the scholarly white-haired old man bowed and spoke in detail:
"Back to my lord, that is Earl Thomas of the Bran family, nicknamed 'Squirrel'. Their family emblem is a squirrel, and Earl Thomas himself is fond of gourmet food, especially drinking and banquets. There are rumors that he is a second-rate man. Knights of the Ring, but Earl Thomas rarely leads the troops himself, and his knights usually do the extermination of monsters."
Yeats fell into thought.
White Night City not only has city walls, but also an army. Such a wealthy territory allows a two-ring deer eagle beast to escape into Chenshuang Ridge.
Accidentally or on purpose?
Although I don’t remember the name Thomas, the lord of White Night City in the plot of "Phantom Wings" is by no means a fool, but an ambitious lord.
Therefore, White Night City cannot be allowed to send knights into Morning Frost Ridge in the name of conquering the Deer Eagle Beast.
Chen Shuangling must rely on its own strength to deal with this deer eagle beast, and then collect a severe compensation from Baiye City!
Yeats made a secret decision and said:
"I will personally lead the team to defeat this deer eagle beast."
Derrick's eyes widened and he dissuaded: "This is absolutely impossible, Lord Lord, if something happens to you——"
Just say auspicious words when you come up, right?
Yeats coughed, interrupted his words, and said:
“Of course there will be risks in crusade, but it will also bring [prestige], Derek, you should be very aware of this. Understand. ”
In the Middle Ages, the [prestige] of the nobles was an intangible wealth that could create real value.
It’s like the Fourth Generation and Three Dukes, “Yuan God” Yuan Shao.
A noble family naturally has a lot of prestige and can attract talents and attract people.
The prestige I inherited from my predecessor is completely negative.
Yeats thought... If this matter is successfully resolved, the prestige gained can also be used to attract refugees and alleviate the labor shortage in my territory.
Derrick was stunned for a long time. Although there was still doubt in his eyes, he did not say anything. Under Yeats's instructions, he left the Lord's Mansion and went to collect specific information about the deer eagle beast.
Clang.
Gray moved the high-backed chair and placed it directly in front of Yeats's desk.
“I said, how are you going to deal with that second-ring monster?”
Gray knelt on the seat, put her hands on the back of the chair, and leaned forward to read what Yeats wrote. of letters. "Do you want to ask your family members for help?"
"Even if I write to ask for help, they may not be willing to come." Yeats said, "I just want to buy a unique Medicinal materials, write a letter to the Starlight Chamber of Commerce for this purpose.”
"Medicine?"
Remembering Yeats's impressive knowledge of potions, Gray suddenly realized.
“I understand, you want to drug the deer eagle beast!”
The [medicine and food come from the same origin] that was realized that day directly improved Yeats’s understanding of his own talent. cut.
For now, Yeats's culinary attainments are comparable to those of a fifth-ring master, and his magical potion skills can reach above four.
If you don't have enough strength, you'll have to use some medicine to make it happen!
“As you can see, as a chef, it is very reasonable for me to know how to prescribe medicine.”
Yeats lowered his head and wrote, saying:
“This medicinal material You should have heard of it, called [Belladonna], which is a highly poisonous herb, also known as 'Moon Shadow of Death'. It is rumored to be a token of the goddess of the night."
Gray tilted his head and said. The goddess of the night? The patron saint of assassins and thieves?”
According to legend, the goddess of the night is a very beautiful goddess who often appears in a veil. Her eyes are as beautiful and deep as stars.
“Today’s little knowledge, the representative plant of the goddess of the night [Belladonna], its juice dripping into the eyes can make the pupils dilate and become bright and energetic.”
Yeats smiled Hold up a finger.
“So, belladonna is often used by aristocratic women to beautify their pupils, which is called colored lenses for short!”
Gray’s face fell, and she complained: “Where did you get these trivial facts? Learned..."
In the letter, Yeats urgently requested the purchase of belladonna from the Starlight Chamber of Commerce. This letter would be sent to the Chamber of Commerce by Snow Owl as a messenger.
Looking at the owl snoozing on the pole, Yeats said cautiously:
"Wake up, stop sleeping?"
"Gu! (▼ヘ▼# )"
Snowy Owl opened his eyes slightly, showing a look full of resentment.
When I woke up, I was so angry!
Yeats coughed lightly, took up his pen and added [coffee beans] to the list of purchases in the letter.
In the future, after the snowy owl has stayed up all night, when you let it deliver messages during the day, give it some coffee first.
Chenshuang Ridge is full of waste, and my magic pet can’t rest yet!
"Don't worry, Niaoniao. After delivering the letter this time, I will definitely not let you deliver the letter during the day next time——"
Yeats personally made a cup of black tea for the snowy owl who was so sleepy that his eyes were squinting. He said righteously:
"Unless there is an emergency in Chenshuang Ridge, of course, I will never object to you voluntarily delivering the letter." ! ”
Grey: (_)
Obviously what Yeats said is high-sounding.
Why do I always feel like he is a black-hearted businessman...
"Gu~()"
Snow Owl took a sip of refreshing iced black tea.
Forget it, let me make another trip!
Not long after, the Snow Owl picked up his luggage and flew away from the Lord's Mansion.
Gray and Yeats watched the snowy owl go away side by side. She couldn't restrain her curiosity and said:
"What is the effect of the magic potion made from belladonna that you just mentioned? Is it really effective against the second-ring monsters?"
"I call it [The Potion of Epilepsy], and it is a potion made by myself. Developed formula. "
Yeats said: "The symptoms after drinking are not fixed, and the specific symptoms are laughter, twitching, and dark crawling."
Grey:? ? ?
My Holy Light, this sounds like a very evil formula!
