Chapter 593: There is no real fragrance in the world of Ishruna in the painting.
Gray pursed her lips slightly, stared at the bugs in the wooden bowl, and then put the wooden bowl aside calmly. She felt that she still couldn't accept eating bugs.
"Hehehe, Chronic Gray..."
Before Yade could finish speaking, she violently interrupted him.
"Hmm? Is it not to your taste?"
Because of Adelaide, the old man raised his head, noticed the embarrassment of Gray and Olga Marie, and said as if he suddenly realized.
"That's right, you come from a more affluent foreign country, so it's normal that you are not used to eating these things. But in Ishruna, everyone eats this kind of food. After all, there is wind and snow everywhere, and there is not much to eat.
thing."
As he spoke, the old man took out a worm from the bowl, put it in his mouth, bit it into pieces, and spoke vaguely.
"Don't underestimate these bugs. Although they don't look good in appearance, they are still very practical. Such a small bowl is enough to meet your daily needs."
"And these bugs are not very troublesome to raise. They only need a little residue to survive, and the yield is very large."
………
After listening to the old man's words, Gray picked up the wooden bowl again and stared at the insects floating in the thick soup, feeling increasingly hesitant.
In such a difficult environment, you really can't ask for anything more.
If they don't eat these bugs, I'm afraid they won't have anything to eat.
Thinking of this, Gray sighed softly and picked up a fat, white insect. You could even see its black mouthparts and two rows of young feet.
She closed her eyes and brought the insect closer to her mouth little by little. Olga Marie on the side covered her mouth and looked at her, as if waiting for Gray's reaction.
Maybe because she closed her eyes, she didn't feel that it was unacceptable. The texture of the bug was very soft and sticky, but it was also elastic, and it took a little force to bite it off.
The juice inside gushed out, and it didn't taste as bad as I thought. Instead, it tasted like chicken.
"Gray, how are you?"
After watching Gray eat a whole worm, Olga Marie asked.
"Well...it doesn't have any special smell, so there should be no problem."
"..."
After hearing Gray's answer, Olga Marie stared at the worms in her bowl with complicated eyes. Finally, after hesitating for a long time, she followed Gray's example and closed her eyes.
Although this is an act of self-deception, it won't be so uncomfortable if you can't see the bugs.
In this way, they ate up all the insect soup and indeed solved their hunger problem, but the solution was indeed a bit difficult to describe.
After dinner, Olga Marie naturally did not give up the opportunity and chatted with the old man, trying to get some information.
Gray, on the other hand, felt a little uneasy and inexplicably panicked, as if some danger was approaching.
She subconsciously turned her head and looked out the window. Through the gaps in the wooden boards, all she could see was the howling wind and snow, and the pure night in the distance.
………
"Old man, why do the people of Elus reject outsiders? They should also have rare blood. In a sense, their ancestors are also outsiders."
Olga Marie was puzzled by this question, and Gale didn't answer, so she could only ask the old man in front of her.
As the only pure-blood rare person left in Ishruna, his long life is matched by profound knowledge. He himself has witnessed the history of Ishruna from prosperity to decline.
"The status of the original rare people in Ishruna was not high, and they were always regarded as prey by the locals. Therefore, the first batch of talents built Elus as a place for their own tribe."
Faced with Olga Marie's question, the old man patiently answered that maybe it was because he hadn't chatted with others for a long time that he became interested for the first time in a long time.
"It's just that more and more rare people came to Elus later, and the last extremely powerful rare people unified Ishruna and established a unified golden dynasty."
"There is also a difference between rare people and rare people. The gap is even greater than the distance between humans and animals."
Having mentioned this, the old man pointed at himself, with a bit of emotion on his old face.
"We rare people with silver eyes have no special characteristics except that our lives are longer than those of ordinary people. Otherwise, we are no different from ordinary people."
At this point he paused and then continued,
"As for the small group of people who unified Ishruna, they call themselves the Golden People, the race of the ancient gods. The most eye-catching symbol is the pair of golden eyes of the sun, which exudes blazing light even at night. At the same time,
He also has silver hair, a tall and strong body, and unparalleled strength."
"The most ordinary golden people can defeat the flying dragon alone. Even a hundred fully armed knights are no match for them."
"It was only later..."
"What happened next?"
Olga Marie was immediately interested and asked subconsciously.
"It's nothing."
The old man shook his head and sighed heavily,
"It's just that with the passage of time, the Golden Dynasty fell apart, Ishruna returned to its former appearance, and those golden people disappeared without a trace. They must have left Ishruna and returned to their hometown."
"Um……"
Olga Marie nodded, but then she realized something. She was clearly asking why the people of Elus rejected outsiders, but she somehow got off track.
"Little girl, as for your question, it's actually very simple."
Seemingly seeing through Olga Marie's thoughts, the old man continued.
"It is said that new outsiders came to the church. For some unknown reason, those outsiders joined the church, plundered Elus and took away a lot of things. This should be the reason why they hate outsiders.
.”
"If it were in the past, these guys might not be hospitable, but they wouldn't treat you like this."
【New Advent——?!】
Olga Marie's heart trembled suddenly, and she immediately thought of Sakura and Aya. Since she came to this world, they must have experienced the same thing as herself.
But joining the church...?
Don't the people of the church exclude outsiders? Why did they allow Sakura and Aya to join them... No, wait a minute, the information I got now is all from other people's mouths. Where is the part about the church?
It is impossible to tell what is real and what is false.
Thinking of this, she glanced at Gale calmly, feeling inexplicably more wary about this intellectual book.
Is the so-called fire transmission... really what he said? And what kind of identity does Gale have in this?
Just as Olga Marie continued to think, her thoughts were suddenly interrupted by screams coming from outside.
