The Turning Gears Chapter 31: The Blood of Kings

Tonio put all the dishes down, and the smell of roasted meat filled the room.

"Eh, why are you here again?Is there anyone in charge of the portal of Shadow Street today?" Lin Moyang sniffed the dishes on the table curiously, it was still the refreshing smell, and Liliel's eyes were about to turn into star eyes.

"I didn't go back yesterday, I slept in the school dormitory for the night, and I went to prepare the ingredients and drinks early this morning, and I just finished delivering the dishes from the other wards, especially the special meals I brought for a few of your Excellencies. Tonio opened the barrel, and a strong aroma erupted from the small barrel, and he poured a full glass for Lin Moyang and Green, and then he poured himself a glass, and after he had drunk it, the chef took a breath.

"You don't seem to be afraid at all. Green took a sip of the wine Toneo had poured for him, a happy and satisfied smile on his face, and the chef's reaction made him feel strange.

"What is there to be afraid of, but to see so many young warriors fighting, it makes my blood boil! My food exists for warriors, and it is too late for me to be happy that so many knights who can be called warriors come to enjoy my dishes at once! This is the true feast of the gods!" Tonio raised his glass with enthusiasm on his face, and almost shouted hooray.

"Uh, Warrior?" Green didn't quite understand the brain circuit of the Nordic chef, but the food was right in front of him, so how could he not taste it?

"Oh, here. Toneo pulled out a set of silver cutlery from his bosom, wrapped it in a delicate silk handkerchief, and placed it in front of the three men. "Someone will bring a lot of tableware later, I only have three sets of carry-on ones here, you use them first." ”

Tonio then said to the other life-bound agents in the ward, "You can dine in the hospital hall, today is a day to celebrate victory, Shahlimnir's special stew and roast with mime sauce are available in unlimited quantities!

The operators of the Orderbound Division looked at each other, not knowing how to react, but Natasha ordered: "Disband, rest for 2 hours, you also go and have something to eat, the mission time is temporarily interrupted." ”

With Natasha's words, the group of agents took off the masks on their faces, and they seemed to relax all of a sudden, and immediately began to laugh with each other, and a group of people walked out of the ward with laughter and laughter.

"Well, it tastes so good! it's a little better than the best barbecue I've ever had, and he's a great cook." Green put the golden roast meat in his mouth, and the knight commander was immediately captured by the taste, and a sweet expression appeared on his face.

"Your compliments are the best reward for me, Lord Greenbein. Tonio happily performed a knightly salute, but this etiquette may have just been learned, and his movements are not very standardized.

"No, no, no, this is not a compliment, chefs are the same as knights, they are people who show their skills on their respective battlefields, and your achievements in the battlefield of cooking have surpassed my achievements in the field of knighthood, I have a lot to learn, this is respect, I respect you from the bottom of my heart. Green said sincerely, Tonio was a little at a loss when he said this, the cook showed an extremely shy expression and said: "No, Lord Green's prestige is the entire wizarding world, if Valhalla is still there, the god Odin will definitely ascend you to Valhalla as a heroic spirit and a warrior." ”

Lin Moyang watched the two people blowing each other in business over there, all kinds of embarrassment, he was an ordinary person, at least a quick wizard who grew up in an ordinary family, and he really couldn't understand the red tape between these wizards.

"Huh...... Your Excellency Moyang~I want to eat it too~" Liliel sat on the hospital bed, pitifully pulled the corners of Lin Moyang's clothes, and looked at Lin Moyang with a pair of big watery eyes.

Lin Moyang was sweating like rain by this cute thing, and hurriedly said: "If you want to eat, you can come down quickly, you are not seriously injured, you have hands and feet, can't you move a chair and sit over?"

Liliel cheered from the hospital bed, lifted the covers, and scurried to the table in a hospital gown, smiling at Taylor beside her, and then eagerly grabbing a roast chicken leg and stuffing it into her mouth.

Although Lin Moyang wanted to continue to taste these delicacies, the corpses were still looming in his mind last night, and he really didn't agree with Tonio's statement of celebrating victory.

Lin Moyang took one of the suitcases, this suitcase was very similar to the one sent to him by the pilgrims, and probably all the boxes that stored the alchemy weapons looked similar.

Lin Moyang put the suitcase on the hospital bed, anyway, now Liliel is already at the table, he is not afraid of getting in the way of anyone doing this, he opened the lid of the box, inside is a brand new two-handed sword, different from the one in Kiplin's hand, this one is smaller, the sword body is engraved with fine patterns, the hilt is close to the blade of the sword is not open, and there is a pair of silver chain mail gloves by the way.

"A good alchemical sword, the workmanship is exquisite, and it is a good match for you. Green came to Lin Moyang's side, he first marveled at the gorgeous workmanship of this two-handed sword, and then slapped Lin Moyang's ass without a trace.

The sword was really beautiful, so beautiful that it looked like a work of art rather than a killing tool, and every pattern on the sword body could be seen with traces of careful inscription and polishing, the fine patterns of the folded steel were intertwined with the intricate patterns engraved on the sword body, flashing with a silver golden luster, the hilt was carefully wound with some kind of animal leather, which was very comfortable to the touch, and the weight of the sword hilt was a gem that shimmered with a flame luster. Lin Moyang touched it with his hand, and a warm touch came from the surface of the gem.

"The dragon crystal of the fire dragon! Wow, that's a big deal. Tonio slipped the roast for everyone as he tilted his head sideways and quietly looked at the contents of the suitcase, exclaiming at the sight of the gem.

"What kind of dragon dragon's dragon crystal, you say it clearly. "Lin Moyang hasn't recognized this thing yet, but a cook has recognized this thing, sometimes I really wonder what Toneo is usually doing, in addition to studying cooking, this chef must have studied other things.

"Your Excellency Tonio is really well-informed, and this is the first time I have seen the dragon crystal of the fire dragon. "Green started the business blowing mode, but no matter how this guy spoke, his tone was very sincere, and he was not pretentious at all.

"Wow, you all know each other, but I don't know each other, it's too much. Lin Moyang watched these two people flatter each other, but he couldn't figure out the situation like a mentally retarded person, so he felt very low.

"This is a precious alchemy gem, only skilled alchemists can refine, the materials are very valuable, this gem itself is a kind of magic props, or magic jewelry, can be automatically charged, use some flame-related spells, in the process of alchemy development, the current alchemy materials have been difficult to make magic swords, is because of the lack of materials that can make gems such as dragon crystal for fire dragons. When I was looking for the Cauldron of Irenir, I read a few things about ancient alchemy and artifacts. This gem was originally intended as a substitute for the dragon's dragon crystal, which was not only rare but also very difficult to kill, and in order to obtain their dragon crystal, alchemists had been researching for a while how to make a substitute with simple materials that could be obtained. Tonio introduced this knowledge reserve, and few people believed him when he was a cook. "It's the first time I've seen a newly made Fire Dragon Dragon Crystal, and it seems to be of very high quality. ”

"Good eyesight, this gentleman is ......" The person at the door of the ward let out a heartfelt exclamation, his voice was very weak, so that Green and Lin Moyang immediately sounded that they thought that a seriously injured patient had come to the door.

Lin Moyang and Green looked up and saw a pale and crumbling Ma Ao standing at the door of the ward, with heavy dark circles and bags under his eyes.

"My name is Toneo, I'm a chef, and you must be the alchemist who brewed the blood of kings. Tonio was pleasantly surprised to see Mao, who put down his knife and fork and stretched out his hand to shake hands with Mao. Passionate about e-books

Mao stretched out his hand and shook Toneo's hand, he also smiled: "You are the chef who made Eveleizhen, we have received your sample, it is indeed the alchemy technique of the gods, you can reproduce it is really amazing, we have added Eveleizhen's alchemy technique into the manufacturing process of alchemy potions, and successfully imitated several potions that could not be concocted before." ”

At this time, Ma Ao patted his head as if he remembered something, and someone immediately walked in with a small bucket behind him.

"Originally, I wanted to pay my respects to my colleagues in the Sword of Damocles, I, an alchemist, have nothing to offer, this bucket of kings' blood, even if it is a gift. I also ask your forgiveness for not being able to stand on the front lines with you. As he said this, a look of sadness and self-reproach appeared on his pale face.

"Don't say that, Mao, you are a logistician, unlike us front-line personnel, without the support of logisticians, then the battle cannot be won. With you logistics personnel, we can fight with confidence, make the best use of our resources, and make the best use of our talents. Green replied that the knight's words had made Mao's heart feel better.

"Is this the blood of kings?" Tonio's eyes narrowed, he didn't taste the blood of kings yesterday because of the interference of the hunters, let alone the mixture of the blood of kings and Eveleizhen, and now he seemed to see an opportunity.

"Wait, can I try it first?" asked Tonio with an eager look in his eyes, he would be very disappointed if Mao rejected him. Fortunately, Mao was milder than Green in terms of personality, and he blinked, obviously not understanding why the chef was so eager for his wine, but he had no reason to refuse.

The Eveleizhen made by this chef is a very powerful alchemy solvent, which can increase the effect of all alchemy materials by about two percent, so that some potions that cannot be made because there are no high-quality materials can be reproduced again, and now all the alchemists of Hermes's face have exploded, and there has been a commotion below, countless sealed alchemy formulas have been turned out from the corners, and the alchemists have begun to test which potions can be manufactured one by one. It can be said that this liquor called Eveleizhen is a kind of alchemy enhancer that is all-powerful, and such a divine skill actually exists in the hands of a chef.

The barrel was marked with a wooden faucet, and a blood-red liquid poured into the wooden cup.

Tonio held his glass in his hand and sniffed it under the tip of his nose, like a gourmand in a treasure trove of treasures, reverently savoring the hard-won liquor.

Just a light smell, the chef's eyes were slightly moist, and his face showed an intoxicated expression, Lin Moyang looked at this expression, and thought to himself that Beethoven, who was intoxicated with music, was nothing more than that, right?

"Good wine! The aroma of wine is light and long, lingering and not damp, it is really the aroma of good wine!" Tonio praised excitedly, Ma Ao didn't know how to answer this chef for a while, Ma Ao is just an alchemist, this wine is just an accidental product, and now you let him squat at home and discuss winemaking experience with such a top chef, or how to distinguish good wine, this is too difficult for him.

Tonio held the cup, discreetly like Galahad in Arthurian legend holding up the chalice, as if the cup was filled with the blood of the gods. Tonio has always been a supporter of the Heroic faction, so his cuisine is all warrior dishes, barbecues, stews, all of which can provide great energy for the warriors to fight, and his wine has always been a refreshing spirit like mead, which can be paired with barbecue to dilute the greasy feeling of meat, and it is also very suitable for drinking in a large glass. But now he carefully raised the wooden cup to his eyes, and he tilted it slightly, sticking out his tongue and lightly dipping it in some bright red liquor.

The chef shuddered, carefully placing the wooden glass filled with liquor back on the table, then knelt reverently in front of Mao, affectionately grasping Mao's hand. "You must be the legendary Andhrimnir! The chef of the gods who cooked for the warriors in Norse mythology! No, you are his reincarnation! How else could you make such a fine wine! It is worthy of the blood of kings! The bravery and glory of the kings of the Nordics are in the taste of this wine! This is worthy of the wine of kings!" Tonio's gaffe made Lin Moyang goosebumps rise at the sight of his gaffe.

He picked up the cup that Toneo had put down, the blood of the kings in the quilt was as red as real blood, but the bright red wine was transparent like a clear spring under the blue sky, and through the red wine, he could see the texture of the bottom of the wooden cup.

Lin Moyang couldn't believe that this wine could be so delicious, even Toneo, who was holding Eveleizhen in his hand, couldn't help but be crazy about it. Lin Moyang learned from Tonio to dip his tongue in some wine,

As soon as the wine was entered, it turned into a violent storm, sweeping through Lin Moyang's whole body, this wine tasted very strong, thick like the blood that had just flowed, just such a shallow taste, Lin Moyang felt that he was already in the ancient battlefield, holding a broken metal weapon in his hand, and the tip of his nose and eyes were dripping with blood. But what the wine stirred up was not a violent sense of killing, but the kind of dripping victory that the battle was over, the body was overwhelmed, and even soaked in blood, but finally triumphed.

The satisfaction of this wine is not the taste or the taste, but the taste of victory behind the bloody taste. Tasting this wine is like winning a hearty battle of life and death, like a scarred god of war erecting his battle flag on a solemn battlefield, with a cheer of celebration behind him.

Just a shallow taste made Lin Moyang's mind capture this wine, all the praises seemed pale, and the deliciousness of all other fine wines seemed dull. Warriors would vent their joy at the celebration feast by drinking booze, and this wine was the victory itself, the joy itself.

Lin Moyang put down his glass, he could now understand why Tonio was so out of shape, for a chef and winemaker, such a wine has long gone beyond the meaning of the wine itself, and has risen to the concept of victory, and every sip is a bloody victory that is enough to roar.

"Ah no, this, I don't know......" Mao was clearly not good at dealing with others, not to mention that now Toneo was kneeling in front of him, begging him to share the recipe for the blood of kings.

"That's fine, you've provided a sample of Eveleizhen, so I should have provided the recipe for the blood of kings. Equivalent exchange, in fact, I'm worried that the formula of the Blood of Kings is not worth the value of Evelei's formula. "Ma Ao was still thinking from the perspective of an alchemist, in his opinion, no matter how wonderful the blood of kings was, it was just a kind of wine, and its value was far less than that of a universal alchemy enhancer like Eveleizhen. But Tonio was already overwhelmed with joy, and he finally got the first recipe that could truly be called a god's recipe, much to the chef's delight.

"No, no, that's enough! Evelet Zhen is just an attendant, how can she be compared to the king of heroes! Yes! Yes!" Tonio stood up at this time, trembling with excitement, the chef was rubbing his hands together and muttering to himself incoherently: "Yes! Eveleizhen, there is still Evelet Zhen brought this time, I want to mix, today is a day to celebrate, I want to go back to the restaurant, bring all the ingredients! There is a big banquet tonight! There will be wonderful drinks and sumptuous dishes! But how do I make a dish that goes well with such a good wine now! Calm down! Tonio, you have to be calm!"

Lin Moyang looked at the chef with tears and laughter, trembling while comforting himself to calm down.

"Yes, yes, this is the time when I break through the limits of my cooking skills, if I can't make a dish that goes well with this wine, I can reproduce what kind of god cooking!Yes, I want to break through myself!

"Thank you, Your Excellency, I'll go back to the banquet!" Tonio grabbed Maao's hand and shook it so hard that he almost dragged the thin alchemist to the ground. Then the excited-looking cook rushed out of the hospital room as if no one was around, his beastly howls could be heard along the way.

Ma Ao hesitated and asked, "Did I do something I shouldn't have done?"

Lin Moyang sighed: "Probably he is such a person, you don't have to care." ”

Mao nodded incomprehensibly. "I'm going to explain to you the precautions for equipment. It was then that Ma Ao remembered that he had come to deliver more than just wine.

"Okay, fine, but let's pour the wine first. Liliel held the first big chicken leg in her hand, looking at Lin Moyang's cup, her eyes were also shining, and the blood girl shouted excitedly, like a starving ghost with a beautiful face.
