The battle was over, and the summoning time of the big golden retriever dog was also about to end. The flash dog sniffed and nuzzled each other friendlyly with three giant wolves of the same kind, and then barked twice at John to say goodbye, and the whole dog
Turned into light and shadow and disappeared in place.
John also waved goodbye to the big dog. He felt that the flash dog, a monster of the natural alignment, was very powerful, had a peaceful temperament, and was very intelligent. He just didn’t know if he could find one to sign as his animal companion.
When you reach level 1, you can sign two animal companions.
The two brothers here only thought for a moment after listening to John's words, then looked at each other, then knelt down on one knee to John, and said respectfully to John with the knightly etiquette:
"Only in the name of the King of Knights, I, Raymond (Stephen) Salvatore, swear allegiance to Knight John Walker as my lord. If I violate my oath, I will suffer the punishment of exposure to the sun..."
John nodded with satisfaction at the understanding of the two brothers and said in a cold tone:
"Very good, your choice is very wise, but no matter how strict the oath is, it is not impossible to break it. After all, the natural blood lust of your race cannot be completely suppressed by relying solely on personal willpower, so for insurance, I need to
There is a curse left on you as a restriction. If you don’t agree, then I have no choice but to let old Salvatore bear the pain of losing his only child!"
The two brothers had experienced the previous changes, and they knew in their hearts that their brothers were no match for the people in front of them, and they felt guilty towards their family and their father, so even though they understood that the so-called contract conditions of the other party were definitely not good for them, once they signed it, they would
It would restrict their freedom, but they still bowed their heads and said yes without hesitation.
So before the two of them regretted it, John planted the child talismans of the soul-retracting technique in each other's souls.
It was the successful use of the Son-Mother Soul Retraction Technique on Sam before, which gave John a hint of inspiration. The shamans of their Black Wind Mountain lineage have been driving mountain spirits and wild monsters since ancient times, and animal ghosts are the strongest means of protection.
, in essence, it is no different from the method of exorcising corpses and refining corpses, raising ghosts and fighting ghosts as described in Maoshan Gaiden.
In Taoist terms, vampires are monsters, ghosts, and zombies that mutate after evil enters the body. I wonder if this thing can be used to control vampires?
After doing this, John's tone became kind.
"Everyone, get up! Tomorrow morning, I will ask the famous people in the town to bear witness, hold a ceremony in front of your father, and personally accept you as my attendants. This will be my explanation to old Salvatore. I will give it to you in the future.
Provide animal blood for drinking. If you go out to hunt humans on your own, remember not to let me discover it. I'm afraid the consequences will be remembered for your whole life..."
Feeling that there was a kind of imprisonment in their souls, Raymond and Stephen naturally did not dare to test their own lives, so they all agreed honestly, and then stood back in a tidy manner.
John was quite satisfied with his two new attendants. Seeing that it was already past midnight, he simply asked the two brothers, Sam and Mark to go to the kitchen to prepare pots and pans, and asked Joe and Dashiell to go to the town and the forest to prepare the pots and pans.
Bring some ingredients.
He and Arthur were responsible for lighting the fire and set up a stove in the courtyard southeast of the apartment.
In the middle of the table made of bluestone, a straw mat left in the barn was placed, then an emerald stone slab was laid on it, and a few scraps were piled on top. Small pieces of wood were put in the middle, and a fire spell was used to raise the stove.
The copper pot used to cook soup had not been used in the kitchen for two months. This time, John took it and put it on the stove, adding water, ginger, pepper and a piece of butter.
Klaus came over curiously and asked:
"John what is this? Do you want some soup?"
John smiled mysteriously and said:
"Just wait and see, I'll make sure you haven't seen it before."
After a while, Joe and Dashil came back one after another.
One brought back a pheasant, a forest deer and a handful of raspberries, while the other brought some vegetables and condiments from the town's vegetable garden, and even a piece of fresh mutton.
Arthur frowned slightly when he saw it and said:
"Dasier, you didn't steal it, did you?"
Darcy suddenly said innocently:
"How is it possible? I just left a few cents behind, enough to buy several times of these in the market..."
When Arthur heard this, he immediately knew that he had misunderstood his brother, but Darcy had always been unreliable, so he didn't blame him for misunderstanding.
John smiled and praised Dashiel, which immediately made the guy's mood rise again.
Then let Mark handle the two prey. As a hunter, he is best at this.
Brandon was arranged by John to use a kitchen knife to cut the mutton. As an extraordinary knight, although Brandon was tall and powerful, he wielded a long sword to open and close, but his knife skills were obviously very good. According to John's words, Brandon quickly cut the mutton into pieces.
The mutton Dashiere "bought" from the Old Wood Ice Cellar was cut into thin slices no thicker than parchment paper.
The two newly hired servants were responsible for washing the vegetables. It was the first time for the two young masters from the rich family who had always been pampered to wash the vegetables themselves. However, this job was easy enough and they did not cause harm to the vegetables.
John himself took a few seasonings and started to make the sauce under a few curious looks from Klaus.
Grind the nuts into powder and mix with heated olive oil into a paste. This is used as a base for tahini.
Then we prepared three special sauces: garlic raspberry chili sauce, pepper coriander horseradish puree sauce, and sweet and sour sauce.
John took a look and was a little dissatisfied. However, the conditions were limited and it was impossible for him to make oil dishes, sesame sauce, and seafood sauce, which were the seasonings of the previous life. After tasting the flavors, he felt that they were almost enough.
He removed the unnecessary parts of the pheasant that Mark had prepared, blanched it in hot water, and stewed it in a boiling copper pot. Then he asked Brandon, who had finished cutting the mutton, to continue cutting the venison slices.
Then he asked Mark to cut the deer ribs and tender venison into small pieces and marinate them with spices, salt and a little wine. Then he and Arthur continued to set up a slate stove on the stone table.
When the chicken soup in the copper pot starts to smell, the stone slab on the other side is also burning hot.
John put a piece of butter on it, and with a sizzle, the solidified butter immediately melted and boiled.
The deer ribs and venison were placed on top of each other piece by piece, and the sound of sizzling and the aroma of barbecue oil immediately made the onlookers Joe and Dashil swallow their saliva. As Druid wolves, the two of them were
A complete carnivore.
John looked at the appearance of the soup base, nodded and said with a smile to everyone:
"It's time to start, everyone is seated."
Although slate barbecue is rare, it is not new, but the copper pot on the other side made Klaus very confused and couldn't help but ask:
"John, how and how do you eat this?"
John smiled without saying a word. He broke off two one-foot-long branches and smoothed them with a knife. Then, with everyone's surprised eyes, he picked up a piece of mutton and put it on his plate. He also took a spoonful of garlic raspberry chili.
Sauce, took the fork, dipped the meat slices in it, and put it in his mouth.
"Um……"
John enjoyed the long-lost taste of hot-boiled mutton, even if it was a bit unauthentic.
The garlic raspberry chili sauce tastes a bit like the garlic chili sauce or chopped chili sauce in the previous life. It is garlic flavor with spiciness and a little sweetness. It tastes just right to relieve the greasiness of the fat and tender lamb.
However, this sauce is actually more suitable for barbecue, so after John tasted it, he switched to pepper coriander and horseradish puree sauce, and added a small spoonful of sweet and sour sauce. Although the taste of apple cider vinegar is not as mellow as mature vinegar, but
There is also another flavor.
This taste is close to the sesame-based shabu-shabu dipping sauce in the north in the previous life.
Seeing John's series of operations, Klaus was the first to swallow his saliva, and then awkwardly used chopsticks to stir-fry the meat. After trying the first bite with a lot of effort, his eyes suddenly widened, and he was so impressed by this.
The taste is conquered.
Then everyone fell into the rhythm of grabbing food.
