Chapter 667: Delicious
The cool sea breeze blew across the cliffs, and a few grasses that grew tenaciously in this almost desperate danger were shaking their emerald green branches and dancing with the wind. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ļ½ļ½ļ½Uļ½Eć ļ½ļ½ļ½ļ½
Next to a cliff, Leonidas, who had been impassioned before, seemed to be ready to die at any time, but at this moment he turned around and looked behind him with a promise that did not know when it suddenly appeared.
Looking at that languid face, the king of Sparta, who had just been trembling with excitement and feeling extremely sad about his decision, was momentarily stunned, not knowing what to say.
"What's the fuss?" Xu Promise stretched out his hand and shook it in front of Leonidas's eyes suspiciously, and asked suspiciously, "I'm just ordering something to eat, so I'm not afraid of being like this, am I?" ā
"Oh, good." Leonidas finally came to his senses and hurriedly responded, "No problem, you can eat anything." ā
Leonidas was not a kind man, especially when facing the Persians on the battlefield, he was even more decisive and ruthless.
It's just that the man in front of him with a tired and lazy look on his face is an exception. An existence that makes a tough guy like Leonida have to change his way of coping.
"Go get something to eat, I'm tired, take a rest." The previous battle with the sea god was not easy for Xu Promise at all, and now he was hungry and tired and just wanted to find a place to sleep. It's best to wake up with delicious food.
Although the way to use energy has been mastered, the promised body's need for food has not changed in the slightest. This may already be a memory habit.
After rejecting the messy blankets offered by the Spartan soldiers, the promise quickly found a leeward place in the pass and lay down directly. After adjusting his sleeping position, he quickly fell into a deep sleep.
The reason why he promised to return to Hot Springs after killing the sea god was because this was his main battlefield in this world. If the mission fails due to the loss of the hot spring pass, the promise is really no place to cry.
The dire consequences of not being able to return to the modern world are unacceptable to the promise in any case.
If that were the case, Promise might have gone mad and killed all the Persians in front of him with no end in sight.
During the fierce battle with the god of the sea, Promise was wounded in many places by the trident of the god of the sea. Moreover, the divine power of the sea god also attacked Promise's body again and again, which brought a lot of trouble to Promise.
Those divine powers that invade the body and destroy everywhere are easy to say, and after the battle is over, it doesn't take long for the promised energy to completely dissipate these divine powers.
And those wounds on the body, even if it is promised that such a strong, super-restorative body will take a while to recover after being treated.
The trident is indeed a powerful artifact, and the sea god is also extraordinary. The promise that has been smooth sailing for a long time has finally suffered a dark loss here.
Promise has already treated his wounds, and this kind of thing is just a piece of cake for him. With the promise of strong cellular activity and metabolic capacity, it won't take long for those wounds to return to normal.
The promise of sleep was woken up, and only Leonida dared to wake up and promised in the entire hot spring pass.
After all, the night before, he promised that one person to slaughter the undead army and kill the demon god with a huge body like a mountain in the night sky with a bright light. All of this was greatly admired by ordinary soldiers.
The Spartans worshipped the strong, and Promise was the strongest they had ever seen. In this case, in reverence and awe, only their king Leonidas could come forward and disturb the sleeping promise.
"What's the matter?" was woken up in a deep sleep, and the promised look was naturally not very good. There was also a hint of coercion in his voice.
"Breakfast is ready." Leonidas's words instantly dissipated the anger in Promise's heart. He was really hungry at the moment, literally to the point where he could swallow a cow.
This is because wounds and blood loss on the body need a lot of nutrients to replenish. Although Promise has a lot of energy, he can't eat it as a meal, and he can't provide enough nutrients to his cells.
For Promise, supplementing the nutrients needed by the body is still relying on the food they eat. This is also the most primitive instinct of any life.
Fighting in the Thermopylae Pass was Leonidas and his Spartan guards. However, these Spartans were not the only ones here.
After all, this is Greek land, and there are Greek villages nearby. On Leonidas' way to Thermopylae with his guards, some nearby city-states also sent their men and horses to follow Leonidas to Thermopylae.
The area of Greece is very small, and it is not comparable to the Great Celestial Empire. In addition, the mountains here are crisscrossed, and most of the land is unsuitable for living in high mountains and valleys.
In just over 100,000 square kilometers of land, there are hundreds of city-states, and these so-called city-states are basically a wall enclosing many houses and citizens inside.
Most of the city-states had populations of no more than a few thousand. Even the largest cities like Athens and Sparta have only a few tens of thousands of citizens. Citizens here include their wives and children.
Of course, this is not including the slaves.
After all, this era was the age of classical slaves. If slaves and all other uncounted populations are included, the largest Athens and Sparta, together with the nearby villages, would have a population of hundreds of thousands. After all, the number of slaves in this era was very large.
The Spartans were real soldiers, so the Spartans were in charge of fighting in front of them. Although they were few in number, they were able to take advantage of the terrain to defend themselves against the large Persian army.
In the rear, the people of the other city-states repaired weapons and armor for the Spartans, provided medical care, supplied various material resources, and so on.
And, of course, the provision of food. After all, the men of Sparta were busy fighting and training all day long, and they didn't have time or cook at all.
The person in charge of cooking is a person from the city of Aiina, that is, from a city called Aiina.
The people in this city can't fight, but it's good to do logistics. He is very good at washing and sewing clothes, repairing weapons and armor, and even cooking.
However, when Promise followed Leonidas to a clearing in the middle of the hot springs, he looked at the many erected cauldrons and curling white smoke in front of him. But he was very surprised, and turned his head to look at the king of Sparta on the side, "You eat these?" ā
On the way here, Leonidas had promised to let him taste the most delicious food in all of Greece.
But when Promise saw those cauldrons full of large pieces of cut meat and some unknown weed-like things boiling in the pot, he couldn't bear his eyes.
These pieces of meat and weeds, which are constantly churning in boiling water, do not look like delicious food at all.
At the kind invitation of the chef of the Aiina people, he promised to take a sip of the very strange-colored soup with a large spoon. And then...
'Poof!! Promise turned his head and sprayed the soup on the ground.
Facing the many stunned eyes around him, Xu Promise sighed heavily, "You just eat these things?" ā
After taking a sip of the soup, he finally made a promise as to why the soup was such a strange color.
Because it was simply the blood stains on the pieces of meat that were not cleaned, and the soil on the weed-like wild vegetables was also not cleaned, so they were thrown directly into the pot and boiled and eaten together!
There is no seasoning of any kind except salt. And no amount of salt can hide the rich earthy and bloody taste.
Even if you promise that you are already hungry at this time, you will never be able to swallow it!
"This... This was our best food. Seeing the promised reaction, Leonidas was also a little overwhelmed. This aspect is not his specialty, and he doesn't understand whether the food is good or not.
Compared with Leonida, who looked respectful, the Aina chefs on the side, who were developing horizontally, had a completely different attitude.
When great power was promised, only those Spartans who fought valiantly on the front line witnessed it with their own eyes. And the other Greeks who did the logistics were far behind, and they didn't see the dazzling look of the promise at all.
Moreover, in this era, there is no mobile phone recording and online sharing function. The Greeks in the rear had no idea who this guy who was actually walking in front of Leonidas.
Because they do not understand, the ignorant are fearless.
"This hero." A chef covered in meat exclaimed, "Our food is the most famous in all of Greece." Countless people have traveled hundreds of miles to Aegina City in order to be able to eat our food, just to have a meal of our food. ā
The temper of a cook is not good, because the smoke and fire all day long keep repeating one thing, and no one will have a good temper.
It's just that these cooks know that the Spartans are powerful, so naturally they don't dare to take it big in front of them.
And the person with the eastern face in front of him can actually walk in front of Leonidas, which is definitely not a small role. If it weren't for the fact that what they promised hurt their pride as chefs, they wouldn't have dared to speak like that.
Because of its small size, Greece is already a real journey hundreds of miles away. The cook must be bragging when he says that someone travels thousands of miles just to eat the food they make, because no fool would do such a thing in an age that relies on horse-drawn carriages and human feet to move.
"Huh?" It was the promise that he was dissatisfied with because he drank the soup full of blood and earth, and after hearing the chatter of the cook, he instantly gathered his eyes and turned his head to look over!
