Chapter 276: Estes' Origin
"It really deserves to be the strongest in the empire, and the strength is really not covered."
After Estes fell from mid-air, Ryusha stepped forward and clapped her hands lightly, looking awe-inspiring.
"This level is nothing, although these two dangerous species are very large, they are very slow, they are simply a target, at most it is the level of a special dangerous species."
Estes gently smoothed down her long blue hair, which was tossed by the sea breeze, and there was not even a trace of smugness on her face.
"Okay, let's start the barbecue, although there is no seasoning, my level is enough to fill the gap."
Estes rolled up his sleeves and skillfully disemboweled, disemboweling the prey he had killed earlier, and set up a fire.
Ryusha went up to help, picked up two sticks of firewood and put them in the fire, trying to make the flame burn more vigorously.
But after more than ten seconds, the flames in the fire got smaller and smaller for some reason, and finally they were dimly extinguished.
Ryusha fell silent.
“…… Just leave it alone. ”
Estes cast a slightly subtle look at him, "Liangyi, are you really from the countryside, not the young master of some big family?" ”
looks polite, likes to read, and treats people politely, but he doesn't even know a little common sense of making fires and cooking, and this kind of performance makes Ryuxia himself not believe that he came from the countryside.
"I'm sorry."
After Apologizing, Ryuxia withdrew from the cooking process and left it all to Estes to do alone.
"However, it's really surprising, I didn't expect the captain to be so good at cooking."
In order not to continue to dwell on the matter of his origin, Lu Xia quietly changed the topic.
"It's nothing, I'm not born to be an Imperial general."
Estes replied casually while flipping the pieces of meat: "When I was young, I often cooked by myself, and it was already a common thing to cook dangerous meat. ”
"When the captain was young...... It's a little hard to imagine. ”
Ryusha thought for a while, and couldn't construct the image of Estes as a child in her mind.
It's probably because Estes's current personality is too impressive, and in Ryuxia's eyes, she must have been born with a shaky S character, running out of her mother's womb with a wild laugh, and then standing on everyone's head, commanding all her family.
"What kind of demon king image are you?"
Estes was speechless and complained about Luxia's imagination, "Is it so unimaginable?" Even I was an ordinary girl when I was a child......"
Aren't you the Demon King yourself?
Lu Xia said silently in his heart, just as Estes had no impression of him, his impression of Estes was also very shallow, and he felt that Estes was probably the kind of demon king who could do whatever he wanted.
According to Estes, she was born into a minority group called Balutes on the northern border of the empire, which was located in the ice and snow, with few people and no fertile land to grow crops, so she basically hunted dangerous species as a means of livelihood, and most of the people of the tribe had extraordinary skills.
Estes's current deep-rooted concept was cultivated at that time, for a clan that hunts dangerous species for a living, whether it is the patriarch or anyone else, they can only choose to live in the claws of dangerous species without knowing when they don't know when, and the wild concept of the jungle is stationed in the hearts of every clan.
When Estes went out hunting, the entire nation was destroyed at the hands of the northern aliens.
"That captain killed 400,000 alien nationalities on the northern border before, which is actually a disguised revenge?"
Ryusha remembered the rumors about Estes before, and in the blink of an eye, she suppressed the army of aliens in the north that the empire had determined would take at least a year to defeat, and then buried all the 400,000 aliens alive.
"No, I don't have any thoughts of revenge, after all, the Balutes clan is very weak, even if it is destroyed by a foreign race, there is no way to do it."
Estes lifted the piece of meat, blew lightly, tasted the taste, and continued to answer Ryuxia's question, "The main reason why I chose to bury them all is because it is very troublesome to deal with so many prisoners of war, and it takes a lot of manpower and financial resources to resettle them, and I don't have that kind of patience for the enemy, so I simply killed them all." ”
I see.
During the long march, the existence of prisoners of war was a problem in itself, not to mention that the resources consumed by 400,000 prisoners of war every day were basically astronomical, and there was no need to keep them alive.
If it was Ryuxia who was standing in that position, then he would probably choose the same approach as Estes.
"What? Don't you have any ideas? ”
Estes handed the roasted meat to Ryuxia, "I thought that people like you would definitely deny my approach and accuse me of not valuing life." ”
"Not really."
Ryu Xia shook his head, took the roast meat and took a bite gently, although it didn't have any taste, but the meat was extremely tender, and the roast heat was obviously excellent, "I'm not an old stubborn, as long as I can effectively fight the enemy, I don't care whether the means are noble or despicable, in the same way, from a long-term perspective, the demise of the northern alien peoples is also conducive to the long-term prosperity of the empire." ”
"I see, maybe it's unprecedented."
Estes glanced at Ryuxia with a slight appreciative look, and there really weren't many people who had seriously agreed with her approach in this matter.
"How's it taste?"
"It's good, it's a pity that there is no seasoning, but the meat is tender to chew, and I haven't eaten meat that is grilled so properly."
Actually, he hadn't eaten barbecue before, and this was the first time, but that didn't stop him from saying two flattering words.
"Hmph, if you think it's delicious, eat more, when you return to the imperial capital, you won't have such a mouthful."
Estes snorted, a satisfied smile on his face, clearly not hating Ryuxia's words of praise.
"Definitely."
Ryusha nodded in response, and looked Estes up and down twice.
She sat on a wooden stake that had been flattened with the essence of the moon spirit, her slender legs together in front of her, and the act of biting on the piece of meat in small bites looked quite ladylike, and it was hard to imagine that this woman would become full of madness as soon as she fought.
"What? Am I getting anything weird on me? ”
Estes noticed Ryuxia's gaze and looked left and right at his body, but didn't find anything unusual.
"No, nothing."
Ryusha shook her head, "I was just thinking that when he's not fighting, the captain is really a gentle person. ”
Although when you fight, you don't look like a person.
