Chapter 19: Distribution of the Spoils
Dinah lunged at the black monster as Sylvie unleashed the fireball.
In the confusion of the monster, she ventured into its head and stabbed it down.
Then a piece of the largest source stone carried appeared on his left hand, and he pressed it into the black monster's body with one palm.
Before it could react, it quickly turned back.
With a roar, the black monster emitted a large amount of dark red mist, as if it had been vaporized.
"It's finally settled this time, right?" asked Carey, with a sigh of relief.
"I think so. Dinah nodded.
The fog on the surface of the lake filled again, making Carey feel the coolness of the night.
"Then you two, I will take my leave, and as for the reward, I believe that Mr. Hilt will keep his word. Sylvie smiled and said goodbye.
After the two watched each other walk away, Dinah came to the place where the black monster had vaporized, picked up a black hedron the size of an egg and said, "This thing belongs to me." ”
Carey spread his hands and said he didn't have any opinion, but he still asked curiously, "Can I know what this is?"
"I don't know, but I feel there is some value in research. ”
After staring at Dinah's eyes for a few seconds, Carey dragged up the monster's corpse and said, "Go home, Roy, they're in a hurry." ”
......
The battle lasted about half an hour from the beginning to the end, and as he passed through the village of Ante, he informed Chief John of the news and asked two guards to carry the monster's body back to the tavern.
"Big ...... Man, have you found my child?" asked a woman softly, weeping.
"Your Excellency will send someone to search the surrounding places tomorrow, the two adults are tired today, so you should go back too!" the two guards stopped the crowd that was about to rush up and scolded.
Dinah pulled her hood again, hiding herself deep under it, and silently followed Carey out of the place.
Back at the tavern, several people entered through the back door, for fear of causing panic among the guests in the tavern.
The two guards laid down the monster's corpse and bowed respectfully before taking their leave.
With the help of Belle's abilities, the monster corpse was placed in the basement without alarming any guests.
Dinah then returns to her room, Belle continues to look after the tavern guests, and Carey begins to process the lamb she has brought back.
Although that battle was considered to be thrilling, it also consumed a lot of his physical strength, and when he thought of the delicious mutton hot pot next, he suddenly secreted saliva in his mouth.
Halfway through the preparation of the mutton hot pot ingredients, there was a movement in the tavern, and Carey looked at it, and Roy rushed over when he got the news.
And after the drinking guests saluted the lord again, they were so frightened that they slipped away.
Carey slapped his head helplessly, walked out of the kitchen and said, "I won't run again, I'm in such a hurry." ”
"Sorry, I forgot to ......" Roy was a little embarrassed, and after letting people withdraw, he sniffed his nose and said, "What smell?"
"If you smell a stench, that's the smell of the basement monster, and if you smell the smell, that's the mutton hot pot I'm making. Carey untied the bib, wiped his hands and said, "Drink first, and talk while eating." ”
"Glad......" Roy paused and said, "I found ...... Ever since you came back, you seem to be particularly happy about food. ”
Carey's hand movements froze suddenly, and before he could answer, Roy glanced upstairs and said to himself: "It's also very delicious, did you meet someone you like?"
"Ahem, Belle is still growing her body, and it's a very daily food. Carey gave him a blank look: "Is the lord's affairs too idle? ”
Roy sighed softly and drank the wine on the table.
......
Carey was busy for more than an hour with Belle's help, and Roy looked at the pot of clear soup and bowls of processed ingredients in front of him, and couldn't help but have some questions, but he didn't rush to ask, but sat quietly and drank his wine.
He was sure that Carey and the others would answer his questions.
Dinah changed into a clean set of clothes, and when she came up from downstairs, she saw Roy salute, and looked at the steaming mutton soup pot, her eyes straightened.
"I've worked hard for you at night, I'll send the source stone over tomorrow. Roy paused and said, "I didn't expect you to really finish it, I heard from my subordinates that they all felt your battle movement in the village." ”
"There were some surprises, but overall it was a bit of a thrill. Dinah replied politely.
"Alright, let's get started, this is yours......" Carey handed Roy a pair of chopsticks and taught Roy how to use them.
Roy looked at Carey with a strange look, and then at the rough wooden chopsticks in his hand.
Dinah and Belle are already familiar with each other, they have eaten it several times, and they are no longer polite, and happily put their favorite ingredients into the pot.
"Try it, this is a special ingredient I made, you put what you want to eat here, dip it and eat it, it's like this, it's very simple. Carey explained.
Roy slipped a piece of the letter suspiciously, and put it in his mouth at Carey's instructions, and the taste of juicy meatballs mixed with various condiments instantly exploded in his mouth.
Compared to the other three's gobbling up, Roy chewed elegantly for a long time before swallowing, and praised: "Very delicious!
Carey chuckled and said, "I'm not your chef." ”
In a relaxed and cheerful atmosphere, Carey fully explained the course of the evening with a little exaggerated yet truthful experience.
After listening to Carey's story, Belle couldn't help but subconsciously look into the basement, especially since it could become such a powerful monster after it died.
"So, the follow-up search mission has nothing to do with me. ”
Roy nodded: "In this way, it is likely that the dark shadow is behind all this, I wonder if my father's disappearance will also have something to do with him." ”
"Lady Sylvie, we should also be careful that such a supernatural is outside the city, but we have not been aware of it, and if we have the chance, we should ask her for purpose. ”
"You should report this matter to the church in the royal city again, it is probably a powerful pilgrim, and I think they should take it seriously this time. Carey suggested.
......
The handling of the water monster, Carey told Roy to have someone come and get it tomorrow.
He knew that Roy wanted to use this incident to stabilize the hearts of the people of Eternal Light City, and also to stabilize his position, and he was naturally happy to do so.
"The corpses of the water monsters are like that, can they still be used?" said Carey and Dinah as they arrived in the basement, looking at the somewhat shriveled corpses.
"Try to carve a concise source text on its forehead and heart. Dinah pointed to the location and said lightly.
Carey nodded, and after following Dinah's instructions, it took a moment to finish and activate the source text.
The source text in both places emitted a gentle white light, and after a while, some red liquid condensed on the water monster's chest, but nothing appeared on the forehead.
Carey fills the red liquid into a bottle that has been prepared long ago.
"Hmm...... It seems that luck is not too bad, these can enhance the physique, just add a little when you take a bath, and half a drop is enough for Belle. Dinah looked at it for a moment and comforted, "The best way to increase your abilities is to keep practicing, otherwise you will end up as crazy as the pilgrims." ”
"Hmm, what is this?" said Carry, enduring his nausea, pulling a rolled white object out of the water monster's belly.
Carey took the roll of items to the kitchen and cleaned it, and when he opened it, it seemed to be a letter!
