Chapter 26 Anna hates this smell
After a long time, by the time the two of them came to their senses, two hours had passed.
Roger looked at Ellie who had her head resting on his shoulder and smiled without saying a word, letting her slowly wake up from the resonance. Then he looked at her suddenly blushing cheeks and burst out laughing.
[Elf Ellie's favorability has been increased by 1 point, and the current favorability is: 34 points. The skill "Life Revival" has been upgraded to Lv.25, the skill "Elf Archery" has been upgraded to Lv.15, and the skill "Nature's Word" has been upgraded.
Level increased to Lv.5】
"Let's go! It's time to go back. They have probably taken care of that monster."
Inwardly sighing that it was getting harder and harder to improve his favorability, Roger stretched out his hand to pull Ellie up and walked towards the two horses grazing in the distance.
Seeing the two horses rubbing their cheeks affectionately, Ai Li felt more and more ashamed, and her face turned red with shame. She quickly covered her face with the hood of her gray robe to hide her expression.
Just as he was about to lead the horse away, Roger suddenly turned around and looked towards the coast. There was a sea tribe standing on the sea, holding a fork in his hand, as if he was observing them.
The distance was at least two to three thousand meters. It was obviously impossible to catch the opponent. Roger immediately gave up the idea and rode through Shimmer Town again, preparing to go back to the Stone Castle.
On the way back, Roger saw Root waiting respectfully at the edge of the field as expected. Even the lounge chairs used for laziness had been put away. The work of clearing up the dumped wheat seedlings was also in progress in an orderly manner. Roger was too lazy to go.
He continued to beat each other, and Ai Li passed by without saying a word.
Roger's current goal is to train the personal guards. As long as the strength of the personal guards increases, he will be able to obtain the level 10~19 low-light breathing technique.
At that time, he will be able to rapidly improve his strength through the fusion effect of breathing method + life resuscitation.
The strength of just one Lute and a few trainee knights is not a concern. He can now kill them alone with the strength of the knights, but what happens after killing them? Who will manage these two hundred people? Lute has been in business for more than ten years.
, there must be connections with surrounding businessmen, as well as information about other lords. Killing him directly cannot be said to be harmful or useless, at least it is of no value.
If Roger wants to save this territory, he must let the people in the territory have enough to eat and have the strength to do farm work. This is what a lord should do. But now, Roger has just taken over the Shimmer Territory, and his life
If the land is unfamiliar, blind killing is not only worthless, but also counterproductive, making Shirley and Ellie think that he is a tyrannical lord.
Therefore, starting from scratch is never an easy task, and Roger still has a long time to grind.
As soon as he returned to the stone castle, Roger saw the huge monster's flesh and bones separated, cut into countless parts, and neatly placed on the grass in front of the stone castle.
The old housekeeper and Anna worked together to roughly cut the giant monster weighing almost ten tons into several parts.
The head and internal organs of the bristle pig were placed in a large wooden barrel. The human-sized heart and magic core had been transferred to the crystal box. In addition, there was a huge skeleton with unshaved meat residue on the bones.
.
The most remaining part was piles of meat stained with blood and black smoke. Under the command of the old butler, the fourteen little guys all went into battle and started to cut the meat with knives. The cut meat strips were cut into steaks.
The entire front yard of the stone castle is occupied.
Roger stepped forward quickly and calmly put the vat of offal scraps and the huge skeleton of the Warcraft into the imprinted package, and then said to everyone with satisfaction: "Well done!"
The old butler leaned over to pay his respects, and then asked: "Your Highness, the edible parts of the monster meat have been cut off, but these meats have an unpleasant smell and emit strange black smoke. What should we do next?
”
Roger roughly estimated that there were about five tons of Warcraft meat selected by the old butler. However, if it was made into dried meat, only about 30%, or 1.5 tons, would be left. This is just to remove the moisture.
Weight, after all, the Warcraft meat still has residual magic power and dark impurities, but if it can be successfully purified into edible Warcraft meat, then his side mission will be easily completed.
"First wash these meat strips and meat dumplings in the water, and soak them for two hours to wash away the blood in the meat. The spring water generated by the eternal spring stone has a weak purification effect and should have a slight cleaning effect.
There is so much Warcraft meat that I can’t finish today. You guys should watch it first. If you can’t finish it, I will put it into the space ring after the sun goes down. This will ensure that the Warcraft meat will not go bad.
p>
After soaking in the spring water, first dig a deep trench in the ground to build a bonfire, and hang these meat strips and steaks near the bonfire to bake to remove most of the moisture.
Let the guards be divided into three teams, take turns to look after the bonfire, and conduct preliminary baking of the dried meat as soon as possible."
The old butler listened carefully to Roger's order, and even took out a pen and paper to jot it down briefly. When Roger stopped talking, he nodded and said, "Okay, Your Highness! I will arrange for them to do it right now."
Roger arranged the follow-up work and found that Ellie had already disappeared behind him. It turned out that she had gone to graze far away with two horses. It seems that she did not want to stay at this bloody slaughtering scene.
After all, the entire stone castle is now filled with the smell of blood. If nothing is done, the smell will not dissipate within a few days.
Roger gave another instruction and asked the old butler to lead people to wash the place where the monsters were slaughtered with spring water to dissipate the bloody smell as much as possible.
At this time, Anna, covered in blood and dirty, came from a distance, holding a piece of steak with a sullen face, and said depressedly to Roger: "Roger, this meat seems to have a strange smell, it's so unpalatable."
Ah! Anna hates this smell."
Roger silently looked at the extremely obvious tooth marks on the piece of meat, and thought that Anna, a girl from the wolf tribe, looked too much like a husky, and could this thing be chewed?
Okay! It's almost noon now, and Roger can understand why Anna is so hungry that she just starts chewing raw meat.
Calmly taking the steak with tooth marks from Anna's hand, Roger said comfortingly: "This monster meat can't be eaten yet. I haven't removed the contamination in it yet. After we process it in two days, it will be ready."
Turn it into delicious jerky."
After handing the steak with teeth marks to the old housekeeper, Roger said seriously to Anna: "You are covered in the blood of monsters now, and your whole body stinks. Go and take a shower first, and then you can finish the shower."
It’s time for lunch.”
When it came to lunch, Anna's stomach immediately began to growl, her eyes brightened a little, and she shouted: "Okay! Let's eat!"
Rushing into the stone castle in the blink of an eye, Roger had to instruct the old housekeeper to assign two maids to arrange Anna's bathing and the preparation of lunch.
The lack of manpower really makes Roger feel a little uncomfortable, but having too many people when eating can also give Roger a headache. After all, so many people are counting on him to feed them, and being a lord is really busy enough.
Moreover, his personal guards have been busy since the morning, and each one is a little exhausted. Coupled with several hours of exposure to the sun, their physical strength and moisture have been severely depleted.
As a benevolent lord, Roger should let them stop and rest at this time. After all, they were exhausted, and he had to find a way to treat them.
Therefore, a bold idea suddenly appeared in Roger's mind.
