The epic story of green monsters

Chapter 882 Cooking
  Because there were many things to discuss, the temporary meeting organized by the Ring of Thorns was held for several days before all the problems were solved.

There are also many follow-up issues, such as the repair of Nasir Fortress, the placement of elven prisoners, the disposal of new soldiers and supplies, etc., etc., are all issues that everyone is concerned about.

The Thorns Alliance finally looks like a regular army. Although there is still a long way to go before becoming a true elite, at least the soldiers who survived the battlefield finally understand the meaning of military formations and comrades, and how to Survive and kill enemies better in the brutal war.

Pernilai followed Allen to the more prosperous Namur Fortress. Although dozens of miles away on the other side of the canyon, the Nasir Fortress, which looked far away from the Namur Fortress, experienced a brilliant war. , but it seems that it does not have much impact on the daily life in Namur Fortress.

Even in the garrison camp outside the city, hundreds of thousands of unruly and undisciplined recruits from afar were roaming around, giving the fortress a lively atmosphere.

".Bastard! Are you looking for death?"

"Are you looking for death?"

Recruits who have never experienced hardship will have to pay a price. Their unruly character naturally likes to cause trouble, even if the master of this city is a character who can only appear in legends.

But it was obvious that they underestimated the strength of the indigenous warriors living in the Namur Fortress. The well-trained patrol soldiers had many means to deal with such reckless guys.

A riot was soon suppressed, and a group of outsiders with bruises and swollen faces and dying were dragged out of the fortress like dead dogs and sent back to where they should have appeared.

At the tallest mage spire in the city, Allen and Pernilai quietly landed on the observatory. When the mage servants guarding the observatory saw that the person coming was Allen, they quietly bowed out and left. The observatory was left to Allen and his guests. :
  With great interest, Mother Pernilai looked at the city below which was far more lively and dynamic than the territory ruled by the drow, and couldn't help but feel a little envious: "The last time I came to this city, there was not so much life here. ah!"

"In just a few decades, the city's population has grown a lot!"

Whether they are drow or elves, the problem that plagues their growth in strength is always the problem of population. Although nature has given them better talents and a longer lifespan, it also makes it very difficult for them to reproduce.

Even if the drow did not hesitate to tarnish their reputation and be branded as lewd and lascivious, their population growth would only be slightly better than that of the elves.

“Population increase is not all a good thing!”

Alan said with false modesty.

"Let's get back to business!"

"Do you have any plans to support the dwarf kingdom?"

".I'm afraid it's difficult!"

Seeing Allen bring the topic back to the topic, Penile also retracted her gaze overlooking the city and said in embarrassment: "This time our federation also suffered heavy losses!"

"In order to confuse the elves, we sacrificed more than 100,000 warriors and slaves in Cold Wind Ridge. We were the main force in the subsequent battles. Chief Allen, you should also know how many soldiers were killed!"

"It is difficult for Drow to have children. The population we lost this time has basically wiped out the entire population that we have managed to reproduce over the past hundred years!"

"We are really powerless to deal with the war in the Dwarf Kingdom!"

After figuring out the character of Allen, the bugbear demigod, Pernilai also changed to a calm style, telling all the difficulties of their federation, without the usual tactfulness of making three twists and turns in a sentence.

"And the last time we rushed to the border and helped the dwarves win a battle at the ferry, it can be regarded as easing the crisis on one front of the dwarf kingdom."

"We all have difficulties, but the Dwarf Kingdom is to us in the north, just like the Orc Empire is to the Three Kings of Centaur and Horse, it is an important weight to maintain the balance of civilization."

"We cannot sit back and watch their defeat."

Allen finally pushed the Thorns Alliance to expand its troops by 200,000. With the addition of 300,000 reinforcements sent by the alliance, the Northern Territory, which has 500,000 troops in hand, has never been so powerful.

However, the 500,000 troops in hand are only nominal forces for the time being. If we really want it to have combat effectiveness, there is still a long way to go.

Faced with the powerful elven army, Allen felt very unsure about how effective this pieced-together army in the wilderness would be in the end, especially after recognizing the huge strength gap between the other armies on the battlefield.

Therefore, Allen believes that if troops are sent north, they will need a backbone force that can compete with the elven army head-on. For such an army, looking at the wilderness forces, only the centaurs and drow can do the job.

The centaurs have never left the centaur grassland. They are also unique in the alliance. Their main focus is on preventing invasion and revenge from human civilization. It is almost impossible for them to send troops north.

So in the end we still have to look at Zall.

"Our Federation has suffered heavy losses this time. I wonder if the destroyed Hanfenggang City will be rebuilt?"

"That will definitely be rebuilt!"

"The troops supported by the Alliance will be in place soon, and a large amount of supplies will be sent by our colleagues. If the Federation wants to rebuild Hanfeng Post, then I can make the decision to allocate part of this batch of supplies to help you rebuild. .”

"At the same time, while you are rebuilding Cold Wind Ridge, we will also place Alliance reinforcements and Thorn Alliance garrison near your construction site to provide you with support!"

"On behalf of the other matrons, I would like to express my gratitude to you!"

Pernilai's eyes sparkled, and she seemed to be very touched by Allen's understanding.

"But there are conditions!"

Allen looked directly at Penilei with firm eyes: "The Drow Federation must send a team of elite instructors to help us train the new army."

"While the Federation is rebuilding the city, if the elves invade and cause nuisance again, my frontline army will fight side by side with you. However, if our army goes north to rescue the dwarves when necessary, I also hope that the drow can form an army of no less than 50,000 people. The army will accompany you.”

It is an undeniable fact that the Drow suffered considerable losses in these battles, but it is definitely false to say that they have no spare strength to send troops.

If nothing else, just say that over the years, the drow have seduced adventurers from other races in the wilderness, and the half-drow bloodline they have produced has a population of hundreds of thousands. Although these half-drow bloodline talents and lifespans are worse than those of pure-blooded drow, they are still far above the average wilderness indigenous races.

Having been taught by drow since childhood, and living in an environment that retains a strong underground cruel survival style, the combat qualities of semi-drow are far beyond the comparison of ordinary wilderness natives.

In the last joint operation, more than half of the more than 200,000 troops of the Drow Federation were half-drow. Therefore, it seemed that the drow suffered a lot of losses. In fact, the loss of the backbone of their own race was not as big as that of the drow. They said it was so serious.     ".Chief Allen, you..."

Pernilai smiled bitterly.

The alliance provides the manpower and resources to the north to deal with the elves. Originally, the Hosea Federation, as a member, also had a certain share of it, but now that Allen said this, he used it as a bargaining chip to force himself to agree to the other party's request. , somewhat shameless.

But it's really hard for her to argue. She is one of the five pillars of the alliance, and her voice in the alliance is much more important than that of Drow.

Therefore, Allen naturally has the authority to deal with the alliance's allocation of resources in the north, as long as he can handle the legendary strong men who came with the army, as well as the officers of the various tribes.

And these, neither Pernilai nor Allen themselves think it is difficult.

".I need to go back and discuss it with Deborah, Lillian and the others!"

"No problem, I'm waiting for your answer."

Allen nodded, and then did not forget to sell his tribe's products to Pernilai.

"By the way, my tribe has stocked up on large quantities of high-quality granite stone bricks. If you need them to rebuild Hanfeng Ridge, we are willing to sell them to you at a price lower than the market price."

"."

Penilai was speechless by Allen's wild and unconstrained thoughts. After finally adjusting, she smiled awkwardly: "That's great, we really need this kind of supplies."

"Well, you can send someone to contact the director of the Green Field Chamber of Commerce. As long as the funds are in place, they will deliver the goods to your door within a month!"

Allen did not do things aimlessly. He knew the importance of the outpost city of Cold Wind Post and was naturally more willing to see the drow build it as soon as possible so that he could deal with the next invasion of the elves.

Just when the tribe was excavating the West Mansha Mountains, a huge amount of high-quality stone was mined and stored in Fat Fortress. Even if Green Lake Town is planning to build a new city defense building, there will still be excess materials available.

"no problem."

How smart Penile is. Although she was disturbed by Allen's turning point at first, she soon understood Allen's deep meaning and agreed to Allen's kindness in releasing her.

"I also hope that the drow instructors can be in place in time and start teaching them how to fight after our Thorn Alliance army is rebuilt!"

"This is absolutely fine!"

The two most powerful leaders in the north continued to have a conversation on the top of this picturesque mage tower about the next step of cooperation between the two parties. By the time Pernilai left Namur Fortress, it was already a few days later. thing.

"You are all outstanding talents of our Green Field Tribe, and your contributions in this war are also outstanding. As your tribe leader, I am proud of all of you!"

After returning to his daily life, Allen was not idle. He was rarely in the mood to personally meet with dozens of young talents who stood out in this war after the tribal commendation meeting.

But what was different from usual was that this time Allen chose to meet the group of young people in a secluded manor. At the same time, Allen was wearing a clean white chef's robe, and actually cooked for the group of young people himself. A delicious meal.

In front of the long dining table, a group of young tribesmen were flattered and restless. It was hard to imagine that the idol they had admired since childhood would entertain them like this.

Even the powerful officers of Namur Fortress who were standing by as foils looked at these young and lucky guys with envious expressions.

Everyone knows that Patriarch Allen's cooking skills are superb. Even if ordinary ingredients fall into his hands, he can turn them into magic and have incredible effects. Now, in order to reward these children, the city lord's mansion has specially prepared very precious ingredients, and then passed them through Ai. I don’t know what kind of miraculous effects Chief Lun’s cooking skills will bring to everyone.

"But, I am a poor man. I can't give you anything good from my dimensional bag. The only thing I can give you is maybe a sumptuous dinner."

"Don't dislike it, all of you!"

“That would be our pleasure!!”

After all, Swara's death made Allen a little sad, and he was even more dissatisfied that the tribe was now reproducing and developing smoothly, but there had been no progress in the legendary seeds for a long, long time.

It stands to reason that the total population of the Green Field Tribe that has reached the pinnacle of high-level advancement is the largest among all the tribes in the north. Calculated on a ten-year basis, there are at least thousands of people in each generation, but until now there has been no breakthrough.

Of course, Allen also knows that a legendary seed who embarks on the path of legend is not just a simple accumulation of high-level talents, but also requires great opportunities and talents.

However, stimulated by Swara's death in battle, Allen finally wanted to try if he could help these children have a little more hope of breakthrough through the magic dishes he cooked.

The moment Allen held the sharp kitchen knife on the chopping board, his expression became serious and serious. The more than ten square meters of cooking areas set up in the open air were suddenly shrouded in a mysterious force.

The boiling water sprinkled with a little salt and wood juice was rolling in the pot. A piece of cistanche was quickly cut into one millimeter thick slices by Allen, and then thrown into the boiling water.

The colander stirred twice and quickly picked up the cooked cistanche slices within two seconds. Although the salt-coated wood juice accounted for a very small amount in the boiling water, it took only the two seconds when the cistanche slices were put into the pot. , but it has penetrated into the Cistanche deserticola tablets, seducing the magic power of Cistanche deserticola.

The cooked cistanche slices were immediately soaked in iceberg snow water. A faint magical scent slowly escaped from the ice water, but was sealed by the large crystal bowl containing the ice water.

At this time, Allen had already begun to process another ingredient. With every move he made, mysterious power slowly poured into the various ingredients that passed through his hands.

As the ingredients are put into the hot oil in the pot in order, a bursting fire suddenly rises from the pot, and together with the hot air from the bottom of the pot, it heats the ingredients in the pot with high temperature in all directions without leaving any blind spots.

At the end of the cooking, the dream leaf flowers, which had been kept fresh by cold steaming, were carefully taken out from the steaming plate by Allen, and then the specially reserved flower stems were inserted into more than a dozen ingredients and put on the flower table.

With the insertion of this flower whose petals and leaves are constantly changing colors, the dishes on the tableware spontaneously burst into clouds, sometimes turning into birds and beasts, sometimes into streams and trees.

The whole thing is a piece of exquisite art that no one dares to play with.
