Those trees in the forest that will lose their leaves in winter have gradually turned yellow and are just waiting for their hair to fall out and grow back next year.
Some trees have evergreen leaves and are still full of energy even now.
This forest has no name. There are many races, monsters, and beasts living in the forest. To the south, there is the endless sea.
The Kingdom of Prussia established a kingdom in the north of this forest. It launched seven wars to the south in the past dynasties, felling many forests and annihilating many races, but this forest still existed tenaciously.
The land in the forest is very wet and covered with dead branches and leaves, making it very muddy and difficult to walk on. Except for hunters, ordinary civilians will not come to such a place.
"Woof woof woof!!!"
In the quiet forest, bursts of barking suddenly sounded. Soon, a black wild boar rushed out, grunting and scurrying towards the north.
This black wild boar is a boar, very big, weighing two to three hundred kilograms. Among wild beasts, it is the king. Even tigers dare not attack it easily, but now it is being chased.
Escaped.
"Woof woof woof!"
The sound of barking dogs followed closely, and then three black hounds quickly chased in the direction of the wild boar. These three hounds had thick and long limbs, but their bodies were slender and thin. It was obvious at a glance that they were very good at running.
Behind the hounds, seven or eight people were chasing. These people were dressed in uniform leather armor, holding bows and arrows in their hands, and were very smartly dressed.
"Pursue closely so as not to get lost, and disperse and cooperate with each other to drive the wild boars to meet the Lutheran knights." An older man was giving the order, and the others were cooperating in an orderly manner.
That's right.
These are the fifty guards and members of the five hounds who came with Luther this time. Their responsibility is to drive the prey in front of Luther and Miss Ruth, and serve Luther Knights and have fun.
This is aristocratic hunting.
Elegant and calm, there is no need to enter the forest and smell the rotten leaves.
There was a river not far away. There were no tall trees taking root on both sides of the river, revealing two flat lands. A camp was set up on the east bank of the river on Luther's side and a bonfire was lit.
At this moment, Luther, Ruth, Shushua, and the Correctional Knights were sitting around the bonfire. Shushua also took out some seasonings and prepared to cook the prey on the spot.
As Luther's personal knight, Shushua possesses a variety of skills acquired through rigorous education. Being proficient in combat is just the basics. He also knows how to identify roads in the forest, identify edible foods, healing medicines, and other gifts.
various skills.
This includes cooking skills.
"Here we come." We were all junior knights. Almost at the same time, Luther and the other three heard the noise. Xiu Xiuya and the correction knight did not move.
Luther took Miss Ruth with him and walked towards the war horse. Luther first helped Miss Ruth get on the horse, and then easily got on the horse. Luther rode in front and Miss Ruth behind.
Miss Ruth held the bow in her hand and placed the quiver on the right side of the saddle. She lowered her head and rode the horse skillfully through the forest.
The superiority of the nobility is shown here. Miss Ruth, who seems to be weak, is actually skilled in bow and horse.
But it was useless on the battlefield, so she could only participate in this kind of aristocratic hunting, and her aim was inaccurate.
The two men galloped for a while, and not long after, a black wild boar jumped out from the front. Luther stopped his horse because he had known about it for a long time.
The movement of the wild boar cannot be hidden from his ears.
Miss Ruth was slightly panicked, but quickly calmed down, took a deep breath, took out the arrows from the quiver, and bent her bow to nock the arrow.
He completed this action in an instant, and then with eyes like an eagle, he instantly locked onto the big black pig in front of him.
"Whoosh!" There was a whistling sound of an arrow missing, and the sharp black arrow shot straight at the big black pig, and then nothing happened. The big black pig didn't make any movement, but just rushed forward. The black arrow missed.
It landed half a meter away from the big black pig.
I didn't even scratch it.
Does this count as inaccurate? It’s not accurate at all.
Luther complained in his heart.
Miss Ruth also felt embarrassed, her delicate face turned red, but she had a good will and did not show her frustration. Instead, she drew the arrow again and shot at the big black pig.
At this moment, the big black pig was coming in the direction of the two of them, but it was not rushing straight towards Miss Ruth, so Miss Ruth was relatively calm.
With a "swish" sound, the arrow missed again. This time it was even more outrageous. It was actually about two meters away from the big black pig's butt.
The corner of Luther's mouth twitched and he decided to give up. If he continued to let Miss Ruth continue to do this, she would no longer have any meat to eat.
The big black pig ran away long ago.
Luther calmed down and straightened his back. In an instant, he drew out the arrow and drew his bow to a full circle. His eyes were fixed on the direction of the big black pig's escape. After a moment, he shot out the arrow.
"Whoosh!" With a sound, this arrow missed quickly, making a louder whistling sound in the air than Miss Ruth's arrow just now, and shot straight towards the big black pig.
The big black pig seemed to sense danger and instinctively wanted to avoid it, but the black arrow missed and penetrated the big black pig's head, as if it was made of paper.
The hard pig skull had no effect at all and was pierced by the arrow.
The big black pig fell to the ground with a crash, struggled for a moment, and then made no sound.
This kind of thing would be impossible for ordinary hunters. Wild boars have rough skin and thick flesh. It is difficult for ordinary people to break through the wild boar's armor and shoot the wild boar.
But it is easy to put it on the knight.
Of course, Miss Ruth can't actually shoot a wild boar unless it hits the eye directly.
After shooting the big black pig to death, Luther didn't seem very happy, he just thought there would be meat to eat later. Miss Ruth wasn't depressed either, because this was normal.
"Woof woof woof!"
With a burst of barking, three hounds and guards appeared.
"Knight Luther." The group of people saluted Luther quickly.
"Continue to drive away the prey. Forget about the big black pigs. Drive some hares and other small prey over." Luther waved his hand and said.
"Yes." The group of people responded quickly and turned around to start working again.
Being a noble is cool.
Hunting can still be fun like this.
Afterwards, the guards and hounds drove some more prey over. This time it turned out to be some hares or other small animals. Most of them were shot by Luther.
Miss Ruth also turned to meat and shot a hare that was in a panic.
It must have been an accidental collision.
Quite funny.
But Miss Ruth was very happy. She grabbed the hare that she shot to death and said that she would roast it for Luther later. Miss Ruth also knew how to cook.
Time passed quickly and it became dark.
This is normal. Hunting in this way usually lasts for at least two days. After all, it takes time to travel and for the guards to drive away the prey.
The meal in the evening is very simple, all kinds of barbecue.
It would be difficult for ordinary people to eat only meat for a meal. But the knights, including Luther, ate with gusto because the knights needed to replenish their energy.
And every bite of meat swallowed will be quickly digested.
The knight's intestines and stomach are also excellent.
After eating and drinking, Luther invited Miss Ruth into his tent. The tent lit candles. Luther took out a bottle of red wine and drank with Miss Ruth.
We don’t plan to have any activities inappropriate for children at night, after all, there are so many people around.
Luther is also thin-skinned.
But when Luther finished drinking, something happened.
"Roar!!!"
Amid a loud roar, a powerful aura was rapidly approaching.
