Food Poems

Chapter 72: Instead of drinking potions, it’s better to eat delicious food! (Subscribe)

After the banquet, Kendra helped Snow Owl formally master the new spell of enlargement/reduction.

Yeats wanted Candela to teach a few more subjects, but the old man refused to teach.

It is also said that there is a limit to the amount of knowledge a mage can acquire within a period of time, and delving into more knowledge will do more harm than good.

"The same goes for you, Ye Zhi. While learning magic, don't neglect the training of your body."

The old magician's eyes were filled with a kind gleam as he shared his experience:

"The spells a wizard can cast are limited. When the magic stored every day is used up and there is no energy left to call upon the power of the magic network, it is time to use combat skills."

The magic power stored in the mage's body will gradually dissipate. The higher the number of rings, the more magic power is temporarily stored. It is necessary to meditate once a day to replenish the magic power.

So mages will also use crossbows, long swords or black powder guns.

Yeats plans to get a musket someday, which he feels will be more useful than a staff.

November.

A light snow fell over Winter Lake City, heralding the arrival of a long winter in the North.

In the living room, the fireplace was burning warmly. Lena leaned on an armchair, drank a sip of hot tea, looked at Yeats in front of the coffee table, and said:
"We must return to Jinshi as soon as possible, otherwise the mountains will be blocked by heavy snow, and we will have to wait until the beginning of spring to cross the Jueling Mountains."

"Will the Starlight Chamber of Commerce return to Golden Lion with me?" Ye Zhi asked.

Lena smiled apologetically: "I don't plan to return to Golden Lion for the time being. I am going to lead my team to Oslo, the capital of the Northern County, to do another business there... The next time I see you, young master, it may be when the snow melts in April."

Oslo is the largest port city in the eastern part of the Northern Group. The Northern Group Fleet stationed there is not afraid of the Black Sail Pirates of the Ice Sea Kingdom and the Royal Navy of the Golden Lion.

Ye Zhi nodded to show his understanding, and decided to take the route through the Absolute Ridge Mountains to return to Morning Frost Ridge.

The largest port in the Northern Province of Golden Lion, located in the territory of Duke Hudson, is Wick Port.

The Bronti family and the Hudson family have always had a feud, which involves the old story of the predecessor's father fighting with the Duke of Hudson for fiefdom.

Therefore, Yeats rejected the plan to return to the port by boat.

Outside the border defense wall with White Night City as its core, there are actually large tracts of abandoned land, including an abandoned port, Whitefish Port, which is the gateway to the Ice Sea Islands. It was abandoned due to years of looting by pirates and monsters.

Yeats longed for this port, but was troubled by the lack of legal basis for occupying abandoned land, and thought to himself:
"I can either join the faction of Earl Thomas, the Lord of White Night, and support him in his independence from Hudson, and take the opportunity to expand my territory."

"Or, when the king visits Morningfrost Ridge, we can ask him for the land outside the Great Wall..."

Tours were an important means for medieval kings to consolidate their rule.

Even though Morning Frost Ridge is an enclave far away from the Browndi family's territory and located on the border, the king would personally go to Morning Frost Ridge to attend the banquet in previous years.

However, the 'Golden Lion King' is seriously ill at the moment, and I don't know if he can hold on until the day of the parade... Once he dies, a civil war will break out in the Golden Lions, and the princess in the plot will also appear.

I hope the Golden Lion King can last another two or three years.

Hold on until the day when I have the strength to get in touch with the princess and command the disobedient!
Leave the Chamber of Commerce Station.

Yeats came to the open-air backyard and looked up at the snowflakes falling from the sky.

Ye Zhi was keenly aware of the silent footsteps. He turned around and met Hildre's beautiful light golden eyes.

She was wearing a hood and a light casual dress, and her tall figure had a heroic charm.

"You have a keen sense of perception." Hildreth praised.

"Not bad." Ye Zhi thought, this is because after I was promoted to the first ring, the 'Wanderer' profession also reached the first ring level.

Thanks to the professional characteristics of the Wanderer, Yeats has improved his perception, dexterity, and stealth.

As the chosen one of the gods of art, Yeats's music and language spells are doubly powerful when he unleashes the power of the bard's music and language spells, and the "bad words" are even more harsh.

At the moment, his panel was luxurious, totally unlike the strength of a first-ring player. Ye Zhi was confident that if he cooperated with Snow Owl and Snow Leopard, it would be easy to kill a second-ring transcendent.

The three of us are so strong!

"Today I will teach you how to practice sword." Hildreth took a step forward, "Follow me."

Yeats followed her, rode out of the city, and came to a river outside the city. In the distance, a waterfall cascaded down from the snow-capped peaks.

There was a small boat anchored on the river with the wooden paddle placed on the shore. Hildegard took off her hood, jumped lightly onto the boat, picked up the wooden paddle and knocked on the rocks on the shore to call Yeats' attention back.

"Aren't you practicing swordplay? Why did you change to rowing?" Ye Zhi was surprised.

"First, I will help you comprehend the four major realms of the Tree of Life." Hildre said, "Feel the ripples of the river, and you will be able to enter a state of meditation more quickly."

It was snowing lightly, and it was quite pleasant to row a boat with a beautiful woman.

Yeats boarded the boat and looked at Hildreth in the narrow wooden boat. He saw her paddling with the oars, and her arms showed beautiful muscular lines.

The water surface was as calm as a mirror, reflecting the steep mountains and lush forests. The fjords in the north were magnificent, and Hilde's voice slowly rang out.

"This is the material realm, and the tree of life that is born in your body is your personal soul realm."

"If you want to advance to the second ring, you need to continue to expand your soul realm."

Ye Zhi looked inside his body and found that the first ring at the bottom of the Tree of Life was glowing, while the second ring was dim, as if it was a progress bar that had only loaded 1 percent and would never light up.

Hild continued: "If you want to light up the Ring of Life, meditation, fighting, learning, potions...all methods that can make vitality thrive can accumulate strength for the soul."

Ye Zhi said, "So, we can have dinner, too?"

Hild was slightly startled, and saw Ye Zhi said seriously:
"As the saying goes, you are what you eat, especially soul food, which will definitely strengthen your soul realm!"

When I am with Yeats, I can always calm down. This is probably because of his warm aura...Hilde smiled:
"Others need to take potions to get promoted, but you enjoy delicious food."

Ye Zhi smiled and said, "There is no difference between looking for food ingredients and looking for medicinal herbs."

Hild pondered for a while, nodded slowly, and then said:
"Beyond the realm of soul and matter is the realm of creation, a huge system mainly composed of magic webs, elements, and time and space."

"The final divine realm..." Hirud paused and said, "Legend has it that only those who are above the seventh ring legend can touch the power in the divine realm."

Ye Zhi thought to himself, that’s because the Seven Rings Legend can open the [Holy Land].

There are many types of sanctuaries, which can strengthen individuals, amplify armies, or materialize into holy objects.

Judging from the background story, a sanctuary can sweep across a human kingdom, and the powerful lord Emperor Lorraine can even challenge the true God.

There is no sanctuary in modern times, and Candela is the great wizard who has the greatest hope of becoming a legend and opening the sanctuary.

As for me, my first goal is to create a dish that will allow me to advance to the second ring!

"Combat skills are divided into two major schools: support and combat. I will first teach you the most basic support skill, "recovering energy", a combat skill that adjusts your breathing and restores some physical strength..."

Hildreda released the oars and let Yeats follow her breathing rhythm.

The boat floated on the tranquil river. Yeats gradually adjusted his breathing, smelled the wafting fragrance, and his heart moved slightly.

At this time, the roar of a bear was heard from the river bank, accompanied by a shrill scream, which scared away the birds.

"This is the roar of an owl bear." Hildreth frowned.

"Northern Owlbear, huh?"

Ye Zhi's eyes lit up and he said, "We'll eat it tonight!"
