Chapter 119: Porridge

Genius remembers in a second [Aishang Novel Network biquge.info] to provide you with wonderful novels to read.

The nobles of Stormwind City were not so kind, but after weighing the pros and cons, they chose to help the Western People's Army, provided that Stallman was willing to accept their moderation on the surface. After that, Stormwind City's assistance always came in a very unpleasant way.

First there was a small amount of food, then a batch of inferior weapons and equipment that were about to be eliminated, and even some instructors in the army came to help train these "mud legs" who had just put down their hoes.

Of course, one of them is officially restricted and cannot be diverted for private use, but the other can be used by other people in peacetime, such as free mercenaries, of course, this is a fee, and it costs several silver coins to fly a trip, and civilians can't afford to use it.

Stormwind City, which didn't want to fatten the People's Army, didn't send much food in the early stage, because they wanted to jam Stallman's throat so that they could better control the local organization and make them obedient. However, this grain route was slowly discovered by the Diafi Brotherhood, and under careful planning, a perfect ambush killed the grain delivery team, and the grain was robbed. If Stormwind City wants to deliver food again, it will have to send a large number of elite troops to escort it, which will increase the difficulty and transportation cost will also surge, which will make Sentinel Ridge even worse, and the situation will gradually deteriorate, and it will slowly break away from the control of the nobles......

Fortunately, Stallman is indeed a capable person, and at the critical moment, he took out his and his team's savings for many years, and used a generous reward to gather free mercenaries around the area, and with the help of Stormwind City, many free mercenaries entered here for profit, although it was to make the situation fundamentally reversed. But it is slowly gaining some results, and the west is now in a delicate balance.

It was against this backdrop that Egger came to this vast land that had been repeatedly warned.

……

The orderly led him to the Sentinel Ridge Inn, the largest of the hotels, named after the local name. The innkeeper is a beautiful hostess. Very good at talking, perhaps having received free mercenaries many times, knowing the temperament of these people, and dealing with people very tactfully.

When he knew that Egg was a noble mage, he immediately offered to vacate an upper room for him for free, with hot water and everything. But at the same time, she apologized that the whole town is currently in a food rationing system, and her hotel has no extra food to supply, so Iger is asked to pick it up at the major food ration points by herself...... Yunyun.

Food was not a problem at all for the little mage, and he naturally didn't care. After saying that he could solve it by himself, the proprietress was also happy, giving him a string of keys to the best room on the second floor, the "day" number room, and arranged for someone to lead him up!

The room is quite quiet, simple furniture and beds, towels and hot water. The conditions are okay, but the fatal point is that there is no food supply. It doesn't matter, Egger made a few slices of fresh bread with the food making technique, ate a few bites of hot water and lay down, and after tossing for so long, he was a little tired, at this time let the body relax, and the spirit still entered a state of self-meditation, which is his daily compulsory course. Over the years, it will make his comprehension of magic even higher.

I don't know how long it was, but there was a bell outside. This kind of bell is found in many villages, and it is mainly used to alarm in case of crisis and call everyone to take action. Either flee in time, or prepare for battle. But what catches the ear is obviously not the kind of rapid bell, but it seems very melodious......

"Attention ladies and gentlemen, it's time for dinner! Please take the food box you have prepared in your room and pick it up at the nearest food distribution station. Since you need to go to collect the food in person, you can't collect it on your behalf, please give a seat to go by yourself, thank you! ”

The shop rang out with the simultaneous greetings of several juniors, and Egger probably understood something. Is this what is called a two-meal-a-day ration? His heart moved, he rarely had this kind of experience, and he wanted to see it......

Sweeping left and right, there was indeed a bowl-like object placed on the table, wooden, much larger than an ordinary bowl, but like a small basin, very simple, as if a large space had been dug out of a piece of wood, and then simply planed. It should be the so-called food box. Iger picked it up and went downstairs with the people.

Locals don't need to stay in hotels, so those who come out of Sentinel Ridge Inn must be outsiders. The one in front was from the Elwyn Forest, a tanner who had been sent here to support, and was also arranged to stay here like the mercenaries.

During the war, the inns were basically no longer really open, and they were all receiving support people from all over the world, without additional charges, and the relevant expenses were directly reported to the Western People's Army, and the People's Army would not treat them badly. Iger didn't wear his conspicuous mage badge anymore, but wore an ordinary robe that didn't dazzle, and followed the middle-aged tanner's way to the house, and he was familiar with a few words.

"You're a mercenary, then you have to help us kill a few thieves, those guys are fierce, look at your young age, you must be careful, don't put your life into it!"

"Thank you for your concern! How could the wooden lump in our hands be like this? ”

"You don't understand this, I didn't know it at first, but after a long time, it will be clear! This is really a hotel care! You know, most of the guests in the hotel are here to support, and the westerners remember this, so the hotel is allowed to use such wooden food boxes. It's a bit ugly, but it's much bigger, and it can hold more porridge! Westerners are pitiful, they can only eat two meals a day, and they are all bowls of porridge, how can they be full? But they all carried it themselves, but they were afraid of treating the outsiders slowly, and would rather eat less for themselves and give more to the brothers who came to help. ”

"Oh? Is it because it's big? Particular? ”

"Of course there is, ordinary people only have a sea bowl to get it, and the porridge that can be filled is limited. The one in our hands can be doubled more, and the sergeant who put the porridge will naturally take an extra spoonful when he sees it, do you say you are particular? Westerners, be honest! I've made a lot of friends with the people here these days, mostly real people. If it weren't for those thieves, they would have been doing just fine. ”

……

There was already a long queue here, and everyone had a dish on their faces, but the order was not chaotic at all. Today, everyone has a happy face, I heard that today is meat porridge, how many days have not eaten meat, when queuing up are looking at the cauldron, there is an attractive smell of meat, it is gratifying. Everyone was talking, and the team moved forward slowly but firmly, like a simple westerner!

Egger was a little gloomy, and he suddenly felt a sense of guilt! Obviously, there are many carcasses of wild beasts in his space, wild wolves, wild boars, and even the carcasses of brown bears, all of which were hunted from the Elwyn Forest, and they are absolutely fat and strong, but he can't take them out, because that will cause him trouble!

He has the ability to make bread, but civilians can't eat it, because the magic contained in it is unbearable for ordinary people, and eating it is very harmful, and only the warriors can eat it...... Stallman and they are the fighters, and Sentinel Ridge has a lot of fighters, if you can use the bread he makes to manage the satiation of these people, I believe that you can save a lot of rations for Sentinel Ridge.

But...... He can't! The bread made by the food making technique is amazingly effective, allowing the warrior to recover his health with 4oo% recovery, which is a big killer, if it is known by others, I am afraid that Egg, who is still weak now, is very likely to be carried on the operating table and directly sliced and studied, or simply locked up in a dark cellar and endlessly helps others make bread every day. It's not a joke, it's very likely to come true, especially since he's still weak, and if a few real masters come to him, he won't be able to fight back.

Iger is not a good person, much less a bad person. At least one of his creeds is that he does what he can to help others, and if he can't keep himself safe, then he will choose to stand by and watch. On the other hand, if he can ensure his own safety, he is happy to help others...... He's definitely not a pedantic rotten good guy, he's so convinced!

So, he didn't say anything, just quietly followed the flow of people*. Everyone else has already come, and going back will only make people have unnecessary doubts or doubts about him, which is meaningless! He needs to get his fair share now, and what happens to him is his own business......

Because he didn't come actively, he waited in line for more than ten minutes before it was finally his turn, and behind him, there was still a long line. However, when he came to the front, he was almost at the bottom of a few cauldrons, and just as he was thinking about what the people who came after him would do if they did not have food......

"Hello! Is it a guest of the "Tian" room of the inn? The sergeant in charge of distributing the food asked, weighing a large spoon in one hand.

"Yes! How do you know? Iger wondered.

"I haven't seen you before, but I recognize this wooden food box, with the word "Tian" engraved on it, which means that you are a guest of the hotel, that is, Sentinel Ridge. Here, give me the food box! ”

The sergeant respectfully stretched out his hand to take his food box, and then took three large spoonfuls of meat porridge with a strong fragrance in one breath, almost filling his food box completely, and the meat porridge remaining in the cauldron was basically bottomed out.

"Take it, distinguished guest! Although I don't know you, the People's Army stipulates that if you are a guest of the hotel with the name of "Tian", you must be a friend who has the ability to help us in the west, and we don't have enough food, please understand! ”

This is a typical western man, and he respectfully handed over the box full of porridge, which made Egger's nose sour...... He turned his head and stepped aside.
