Chapter 44: The Demon King and the Patrol Knight (2)
"Hello, Second Lieutenant Hauge. I am Beladona, daughter of the president of the Griffin Chamber of Commerce, Beladona Zinas Griffin. Please forgive me for not being able to get up due to my leg injury. The blonde lady said politely.
"I'm Grimm, an adventurer." Green greeted with a big grin, "Would you like to come and have a barbecue together?" β
"Barbecue...... Is it? The Tiger Horseman looked at the meat on the campfire.
The meat was a little greenish and smoked green under the burning of the flames. Obviously, these meats are all poisonous. Such a thing, even with the strong physique of an orc, does not dare to guarantee that it will be fine after eating it.
"Forget about the barbecue. It's not something I can enjoy. The Tiger Knight refused, "Can you tell me what's going on here?" β
"It's a shame. These are all dragon meat, ordinary people can't eat it if they want to~" Green shrugged his shoulders, picked up a piece of six- or seven-medium rare roast meat and ate it. With a strong stomach, Green doesn't care if the meat is cooked through, as long as it tastes good.
Watching Green eat those obviously poisonous foods, the tiger rider's cat pupils couldn't help but shrink slightly! Suddenly, Hauge found that he couldn't understand the boy in front of him.
As a Tiger Man, Hauge is confident in his perceptions. Therefore, in Hauge's eyes, the young man in front of him is just an ordinary person. But an ordinary person can eat the dragon meat of the green dragon without changing his face!?
Seeing that Green was able to eat dragon meat with a blank face, Hauge was also a little unsure of Green's routine.
At this moment, the blonde lady opened her mouth and explained to Hauge: "Not long ago, the ranch was attacked by the green dragon, and it was this adventurer and a maid lady who killed the green dragon and saved me. β
The blonde lady briefly explained to the knight what had happened before.
"Maid?" The Tiger Horseman looked at Green, "Where is the maid lady who killed the green dragon now?" β
"I don't know. She disappeared suddenly. The blonde lady looked at Green.
Noticing the blonde lady's gaze, the Tiger Rider couldn't help but look at Green.
"None of that matters." Green said heartlessly, "The most important thing now is. Miss, when will your family come? I'm still waiting for them to help dispose of the green dragon's corpse. β
"This ......," the blonde lady hesitated for a moment, then turned to the Tiger Rider and said, "Second Lieutenant Hauge, could you please send someone to take me home?" β
The Tiger Rider hesitated for a moment, then turned to the soldiers behind him and ordered, "Skod, you and your team send this lady home, and report what happened here to the regiment commander by the way." β
"Yes!" A human knight took the order and left with the blonde lady.
The rest of the knights, led by the Tiger Rider, walked in the direction of the ranch, apparently intending to check on the situation.
Green sat by the campfire and ate roast dragon meat as he watched the knights leave.
After eating all the dragon meat on the bonfire, he took a few pieces of dragon meat from behind him and put them on the bonfire and roasted them.
Although even raw dragon meat can be swallowed, the roasted dragon meat is a little more delicious than raw. At the same time, while it was time to barbecue, Green could also rest for a while and try to digest the food in his stomach.
Touching his stomach and looking back at the hill of dragon meat behind him, Green hated for the first time that his digestion was too slow.
β¦β¦
In the pasture, the knights searched the pasture.
Under the attack of the evil dragon, the ranch was in shambles, a large number of houses were destroyed, and some of the animals that were originally raised were all gone, leaving only the corpses on the ground.
Looking at the corpses that had been corroded by the acid, the knights' faces turned terrified.
"Damn dragons!" One of the knights couldn't help but curse, and at the same time he had a little more affection for Grimm, who killed the evil dragon.
After searching to make sure there were no survivors left in the ranch, the knights returned to where Green was.
"It's back. Want to come for some roast dragon meat? Green invited the knights.
Hauge glanced at the corpse of the green dragon behind Grimm, the dragon head next to him, and a large green backpack, then looked Grimm up and down.
There was a lot less dragon meat behind the boy, and the roast meat on the campfire looked like it had just been put on. Hauge mentally estimated the amount of food that the young man in front of him would eat.
This kind of food intake obviously exceeds the level of normal people.
Is he an extraordinary powerhouse who deliberately hides his own power?
Extraordinary Strength is the name given to those who have transcended the limits of their physical bodies in some way. For example, warriors who have mastered fighting spirit, warlocks and bloodline warriors who have awakened bloodlines, priests who have mastered divine arts, magicians who have mastered the mysteries of magic, etc., all belong to the category of extraordinary powerhouses.
Extraordinary powerhouses are able to use abilities beyond the limits of their bodies, and at the same time, they also have very obvious traces of strength on their bodies, which are very conspicuous in the eyes of those who also have extraordinary strength. At the same time, in order to support their own strong strength, most of the food consumption of the extraordinary strong is also very exaggerated, and some extraordinary strong people have even developed methods to enhance their own nutrient absorption speed.
Considering that the young man in front of him had participated in dragon slaying and was an adventurer who could fight against evil dragons, coupled with this abnormal appetite, Haoge had reason to believe that the other party was an extraordinary powerhouse who deliberately hid his strength. But Hauge cares more about one more thing than the boy in front of him......
"What about the maid lady who killed the dragon?" Hauge asked.
Green glanced up at the Tiger Rider in front of him: "Thousand Shadows is my bodyguard, and they usually hide in the dark to protect me. β
"Oh? Is that dragon-slaying warrior's name 'Thousand Shadows'? The Tiger Rider paused, "Can I meet her?" "A strong man who can slay dragons is enough to make anyone curious.
"I'm sorry, Chikage doesn't like to meet strangers." Green refuses the Tiger Horseman's request.
Hauge wasn't offended by Green's refusal. A warrior capable of slaying a dragon is worthy of respect no matter whatβeven if he's just one of the dragon slayers.
"Judging by your name and accent, it doesn't seem like you're Palomian." The Tiger Rider took the initiative to talk to Grimm.
"Yes." Green touched his stomach and continued to work hard to stuff the roasted dragon meat into his stomach. There was still a lot of dragon meat, and Green was a little skeptical that he would be able to eat it before it went bad.
Green was busy eating, so he wasn't in the mood to talk to the Tiger Knight, who was obviously not a good communicator, so the conversation between the two sides quickly fell silent.
"Ahem~ that. Lord Green, what are you going to do with the dragon's corpse? β
"Eat the meat, and as for the other ingredients, keep what you can use, and sell what you can't use. If I could, I'd like to get a set of weapons and equipment out of these materials. Green's thought was very simple and crude, "Oh, yes. Do you know the shelf life of dragon meat? I'm a little worried that the dragon meat will go bad before I eat it all. β
Hearing Green's words, a subtle wry smile appeared on the Tiger Horseman's face: "I don't know about this kind of thing. β
Just as Green was communicating with the Tiger Knight, several knights walked up to the dragon corpse and took a closer look at the corpse in front of them.
"If you look at it up close, it's very oppressive." One of the knights sighed.
A halfling knight glanced in Green's direction, picked up a piece of dragon scale that had fallen to the ground, and slipped it into his pocket......
At this moment, the shadow under Green's feet shook!
Then, in the next second, Thousand Shadows suddenly appeared from the shadow of the halfling knight, pulled out his sword, and struck the knight who stole the dragon scales on the neck!
