Chapter 417 Novice and Spices
  After coming out of the president's office, Wang asked the council housekeeper for a side room.

As soon as he entered the door, Xiaobai said loudly: "I'm really convinced. I can't wait to see them. They are still plotting here."

Flint: "Humans - ah, I'm sorry, it seems that all the surface races are involved this time, so we can't laugh at the bad nature of humans like before."

Nini: "So what should we do?"

Malika stood opposite Nini and looked at the forest elves across the table: "If you ask me, arrest them, use a whip to force them to provide materials, repair the ship and set off as soon as possible."

Wang: "I'm afraid that after the ship is repaired there, a team measuring longitude and latitude will be forced in. I guess it won't work if we don't let them in."

Marika; "Then stop it, our goal is to sail. We can't stop the surveyor and interfere with where we are going, right?"

Wang: "To be honest, I really want to do this. It would be best to cut off all the people who are in the way, infighting, and holding back. This way, we can respond to the crisis with the highest efficiency and reject internal friction."

Xiaobai: "Do it!"

But Marika, who first proposed this suggestion, looked at Wang calmly.

Wang sighed: "It's a pity, doing this will not be good for winning the support of other people in the future."

"Then what should we do?" Flint looked at Wang with a half-smile, "This is a knot, and neither side will let go."

Nini: "Write the latitude and longitude to them first."

The crowd fell silent for a while.

Flint: "It's useless. The key is not the longitude and latitude. Who has the final say. If the king gives the longitude and latitude, and gives an accurate map, they will fight on other issues, and in the end they still can't repair the ship."

Marika: "Wait a minute, you can use the ready-made latitude and longitude data to seduce them. They don't want to be busy picking peaches by others for a long time, right?"

"But there is a boat on one side, and there are materials for repairing the boat on the other side." Elizabeth sighed, lay on the table and started playing with her temples.

At this time, the elf suddenly turned his head and looked at the window of the side hall. The next moment, a small stone wrapped in paper was thrown in and fell to the ground.

Marika: "Don't move! It may be poisonous. I'll check it out."

Flint silently took out the holy symbol and prepared to cast the antidote spell.

Nini quickly walked to the window and looked down.

Marika picked up the stone and said, "With this force, it may have been thrown from the grove opposite the window. Even the elf's field of vision cannot see the person throwing the stone, right?"

Nini: "I saw it."

After saying that, she raised her bow.

King: "Don't use arrows with arrowheads!"

Nini shot out an arrow and then replied: "I shot a flat-headed arrow. This kind of arrow usually has a shorter range. I hope I can catch up."

After speaking, she was speechless: "It seems I can't catch up."

Will the results come out so soon?
  Marika: "Don't bother looking for the messenger, it's written on the paper. No. [-], Flask Street."

Wang looked at the dwarf bard Gaines: "What is the number of No. [-], Flask Street?"

The dwarf spread his hands: "That street is full of flasks and broken flasks. It is the most explosive area of ​​the Thorn Islands. It happens every three days - just like your floating island."

Gaines paused and added a more accurate modification: "It can't be said that it's almost the same. Your dwarfs fly higher."

Everyone was still discussing, but as soon as these words came out, the entire side hall fell silent.

Gaines was embarrassed: "Can't you tell that this is a joke? It's a joke!"

The floating islands are floating in the sky, and the dwarfs flying from the floating islands can fly higher.

Wang: "Let's not go to No. [-], Flask Street, for now. Marika Qian will go take a look first and find out who is behind it and what he wants to do."

Marika nodded, climbed out of the window and disappeared.

Nini hesitated for a moment, then turned to ask Wang: "Should I track down the stone thrower? I'm a ranger, I should be able to find him."

Wang: "It's not a forest outside, it's just a garden. It's a relatively large garden. Once you leave the garden, you enter the city of dwarfs."

Gaines added: "A city full of steel giants and unknown electrical currents."

Nini stopped talking. Xiaobai: "Now let's wait for the news from Marika? How about we start to taste the delicacies of the Thorn Islands. I mean, delicacies other than glutinous rice."

Gaines: "Actually, there is a kind of meat paste here, which is made from crushed meat."

"No!" Xiaobai said firmly.

Wang touched his belly: "Speaking of which, we have been running around today, so it's really time to eat something. Xiaobai, bring out the meat."

Xiaobai took out a large ham and said, "Barbarian."

Manzi was shaving with a new axe. When Xiaobai said this, he took out a piece of cloth and carefully cleaned the axe, and then cut a piece of ham for everyone.

Flint took out the leather water bag and opened the cork, and the aroma of strong liquor filled the side hall.

Elizabeth: "Why are we just eating our own food and letting them serve it?"

After saying that, she stood up, walked to the door, opened it, and said to the servant waiting outside: "We want to have lunch, could you please provide it?"

"Okay!" the servant's response came from outside the door, "The kitchen is ready to serve. Do you have any taboos?"

Wang: “One portion doesn’t require any starch.”

Xiaobai: "Don't wipe the pot buns either."

“Griddle pot buns are also made from starch.”

"Hey, is it also starch? I don't understand."

After Elizabeth gave a few more instructions, she closed the door and returned to the table: "Actually, I ate traditional dishes from the Thorn Islands in Langdon City. My impression was that there were a lot of onions and olive oil."

Xiaobai frowned: "Onions! I don't like onions."

Xiaobai didn't like any vegetarian food. After all, she was a wolf, and no one had ever seen a wolf eating vegetarian food.

Wang: "Olive oil... I saw in the tower that there is a country in a plane that is particularly good at cooking with olive oil. The food it makes is famous all over the world. People from other places even want to taste these olives. Delicious food made from oil will come to this country from far away to work as mercenaries.”

Elizabeth was so shocked that she opened her mouth from ear to ear: "Olive oil?"

Wang: "Yes, olive oil."

As soon as he finished speaking, the door opened, and a group of servants entered the side hall carrying delicious dishes.

Xiaobai's eyes widened: "It doesn't smell like onions, nor does it smell like olives."

Gaines explained in a friendly manner: “The cuisine of the Thorn Islands—in fact, the food of the entire Golden Bay is influenced by Catalan, olive oil, onions, and then whatever is smashed into a paste.

“And lots of spice.”

Just as he was talking, a large plate of barbecue was brought up.

Xiaobai: "Isn't it still fuzzy!"

"This is Catalan barbecue. It's rare that Catalan food is not mushy. But the dipping sauce is mushy." As he spoke, Gaines inserted a piece of meat and put it on the plate in front of him, and then removed it from the large plate next to the barbecue. Scoop a large spoonful of batter into the bowl and cover it.

Xiaobai looked at the barbecue covered in green paste suspiciously: "Can that be delicious?"

Wang: "You continue to be suspicious, I'm going to start. Bring a piece of paste to cover the barbecue!"

He cut off a piece of meat, stirred it in the sauce with a fork, and put it in his mouth.

The strong aroma of spices complements the tender grilled meat.

Wang didn't say anything. He stared at Xiaobai and devoured it himself.

Xiaobai couldn't bear it anymore, so he shouted "There is nothing wrong with meat", made a piece of barbecue, and sprinkled a little bit of paste on the corner.

Then he bit it as if he were facing an enemy.

The next moment her tail waggled, obviously in a good mood.

"Spices have their merits," she said. "No wonder they are so expensive."
