Chapter 262: The Secret of the Shadow Nation (7)

"Riding a griffon back to the kingdom, aren't you joking?!"

Taking a bundle of firewood from Todd, Rachel looked at the sky with the other party's gaze and said incredulously.

With his feet in the deep snow and his hands picking up the rotten wood and branches, Todd straightened up, looked at the beautiful snowy peaks in the sun, nodded and said, "I'm not kidding, like I just said, Leviathan is in the spirit world and has given me a revelation." ”

"If I can incorporate humans into my spirit world, why can't I accept monsters?"

Rachel tightened the fur on her body, and her little face was red from the cold: "The people of the Twilight Kingdom, their trust in you is based on long-term acquaintance and reverence. The ability to smoothly link souls is also carried out on the basis that the recipient does not have any sense of resistance......"

"And these monsters in the Shadow Country, without intelligence, survive on their own, and only react according to instinct. There will be many uncertainties in the soul connection with them, and in the worst case, even in the case of Lawrence. ”

Todd touched his chin with a little stubble, and said in thought, "These monsters may not be as stupid as we think. According to Leviathan, the race in which it lives has existed since the dawn of this world. In this way, this race has been developing for a long time, even much longer than humans, and I think it is possible to communicate with them. ”

"Anyway, what exactly does Leviathan mean by race? Half human and half they, what does the two have to do with that?" asked Richel, holding on to the firewood, confused.

Todd pointed to the ground under his feet: "The answer should be in the depths of the Shadow Country, radioactive sources, tyrants, Leviathans and mutations, these elements may be the puzzle pieces of the mystery answer, if you can find the connection between them, you can completely solve the mystery and reveal the biggest secret behind the Shadow Country!"

Looking back at Richel, who was shivering from the cold, Todd put away his ambition and said helplessly: "But first, we must find a way to go home." Gaining the trust of the griffons and incorporating them into the spirit world is the most important task at the moment. ”

Rachel stomped her foot in place, snorted at her hands, and asked Todd, "What are you going to do to gain the griffin's trust?"

Todd raised his head confidently and said with a smile: "In my hometown, there is a saying called 'convincing people with virtue'. ”

Ten minutes later, the two of them, loaded with dry wood, returned to the entrance of the griffon's cave.

The sudden situation at the entrance of the cave gave Todd confidence and a hard slap in the face.

The two stupid birds in the cave actually took advantage of the time when the two of them went out to collect firewood and blocked the entrance of the cave with stones!

Rachel first glanced at the tightly blocked hole, then rolled his eyes at Todd and said funny, "'Convince people with virtue'?"

Todd, who couldn't hold his face, put down the firewood in his hand, and swung it out with a punch, and there was a loud bang, and a gap was instantly punched out in the stone pile.

By the light outside the cave, look inside.

Todd saw the griffin couple, snuggled up to each other, hiding behind the rocks, and quacked in horror at the attack of the right people.

Another punch.

Half of the stone pile used to block the door was knocked off, and the griffons saw that the obstacles they had carefully arranged were so easily destroyed that they were frightened and jumped like flies in the hole.

Todd, who was angry, stuck his head in, stared at the two stupid birds, and roared with a smile: "Fellow, fellow!

After another ten minutes, Todd cleared the stones from the doorway and took Richel back to the campfire deep in the cavern.

The griffon couple hugged each other, their eyes frightened, and they curled up desperately against the wall.

They finally learned to be an ostrich, with their butts aimed at Todd and their heads pointed at the stone wall, and they were out of sight and out of mind.

Todd, who was angry and funny, didn't plan to pay attention to them, and started to make a fire and cook on his own.

Among the food taken from Meredith were some dried fruits, brown bread, oats, cottage cheese, salt, and bacon.

At dinner yesterday, Todd discovered that the two griffons actually had a human-like preference for food. The little half of the roast sheep that was thrown over was only added with some salt, and even the belt meat, even the bones, were eaten by them.

In that case, Todd simply went for it.

Use the cooking skills of a single dog in your previous life, use food to gain the trust of the griffin, and then complete the soul link with it, and finally use them as mounts to return to the Kingdom of Twilight.

One of the dishes he was going to try today was recommended by a Swiss friend from his previous life – cheese wheat cakes.

Add water and salt, breadcrumbs and rye flakes to the cheese and bake it over low heat, stirring until it becomes a batter.

Then chop the stuffings such as dried fruits and bacon, wrap them in batter, and bake them on both sides. In less than ten minutes, a delicious and simple snack is complete.

The aroma of baked food not only attracted Rachel, who was born with no resistance to food, but also provoked the two stupid birds in the corner who were "thinking about the wall" to the pot.

The male griffin circled to the other end of the pot, holding as far away as he could from Todd, while poking his head out and smelling the pot.

The first batch of pancakes was baked.

Todd tasted a piece of it himself first, under the watchful eyes of one person and two birds.

While chewing, he nodded with satisfaction, the taste was good, and the craftsmanship did not regress after all.

The second piece of pancake was given to Rachel.

The woman, who had seen Todd make MSG, barely hesitated about the food in front of her.

Pick up a piece and stuff it in your mouth, even if you grin with your teeth burned, you won't spit it out.

Todd glanced at the two remaining stupid birds, and deliberately fanned the aroma of the food into the faces of the little couple with the lid of the pot.

Seeing the two griffons scratching their ears and cheeks in a hurry, Todd picked up a piece of bread from the pan and threw it over.

To his surprise, there was a tacit understanding between the two griffons, and the scramble did not happen.

The male griffin only pecks at the pancake and, after making sure that the food is safe, gives it to his mate.

Todd not only sighed, but the monster in front of him was, in a way, really better than many humans.

Breaking off the teasing thoughts, Todd handed another piece of pancake to the male griffon, who seemed to read his thoughts, nodded slightly, took the food and ran back to his mate, and ate it with peace of mind.

For the next few days, the two men and the two beasts in the cave were in a strange state of cooperation.

During the day, the griffons alternate out foraging, and in the evening, Todd and Raichel are responsible for processing, cooking, and seasoning the food they bring back......

When the sun set and the stars first appeared, the two men and the two beasts sat together like a family, eating the prepared food.

This went on for a week, and Meredith came a few times in the meantime to bring in some supplies, but never said anything about training. And the griffin's attitude towards Todd has taken a 180-degree turn compared to before.

Whenever Todd walked into the cave, the griffon who stayed behind would always turn his belly upside down, combing his feathers with his pointed beak, and the most he could do when he saw him nodded and said hello.

Whenever he sees this scene, Todd, who can't cry or laugh, always thinks of the female cat Sonia he raised in his previous life.

When it first came back from adoption, it was timid, defensive, and helpless, and even hid under the bed when it ate. After less than a month of getting along, the guy has completely adapted to the existence of the shovel officer, and he sleeps on all fours.

A few days later, Todd nodded to Rachel as he helped the griffin groom his feathers, then put a finger on the top of the griffin's head, using the ability of "soul link" to try to link with a non-human race for the first time. ()
