Chapter 229: Archaeopteryx Demon
The Maleno Empire is a nation created by the convergence of three human races. Strictly speaking, all three of these populations actually originate from one.
This is an agricultural civilization that originated in the Longjiang River Valley.
After hundreds or even thousands of years of migration and evolution, this civilization was divided into two groups, one came to the lower reaches of the Longjiang River, continuing the glory of agricultural civilization, and the other migrated to the west, from an agrarian society to a nomadic society.
After a few years, the group that transformed into a nomadic society divided into two groups, one to the north and became a pure nomadic hunter-gatherer, and the other to the southwest, to become a comprehensive society.
Although today, hundreds of years later, due to the development of transportation and the progress of civilization, such a distinction no longer applies to the current Marreno Empire, it can be seen from here that the dietary structure of the inhabitants of the Marenor Empire is composed.
The progress of the means of production and the development of agricultural magic have made the variety of food begin to be enriched, and some foods that used to be expensive and can only be consumed by the upper class as a luxury have gradually come to the tables of ordinary people.
However, no matter how much it changes, such a thing as a monster has never appeared in the human diet.
In addition to the ugly appearance that makes people lose their appetite when they look at it, the high hardness of the meat, the strange taste, and the various harmful substances and toxins contained in it are the reasons why people really isolate the monster meat from the recipe.
Even adventurers who have run out of rations will never put their minds on some low-level monsters that seem to be edible, because in the cognition of the entire human society, all monsters are inedible!
Of course, in some places on this continent, some monster materials are also used as materials for some mysterious drugs, but this kind of medicine is also regarded as heresy by most humans.
It can be seen from this that what the Black Rope Society has done is so despicable on the mainland.
But Su Wen had no concerns about this.
I saw that Su Wen made a few magic bullets, and then shook his hand lightly, and these magic bullets shot into the sky in an instant, accurately hitting the bird-shaped monster that was still chirping in the last second.
Then, before these bird-shaped monsters could even scream in pain, they lost the strength to flap their wings and fell straight down, and then on the way down, Su Wen blew a precise wind to his side and landed at his feet.
The three of them looked at Su Wen strangely.
"This thing is called the Archaeopteryx Demon, it is distributed throughout the southern part of the Maleno Empire, it is divided according to strength, its level should be at the first level of silver, and the attack method is only to dive and peck people, it is a low-level monster...... "Su Wen explained.
"We know this ......"
"But...... Mr. Su Wen ......"
"You hit this bird demon...... It's useless, and you can't eat it......."
The three of you and I have expressed their doubts one after another.
"Can't eat it?" Su Wen glanced at a few people in surprise: "Why can't you eat it?"
In Su Wen's cognition, this bird demon has no toxins, and it doesn't look strange, so why can't he eat it?
Several people looked at each other, not knowing how to explain to Su Wen.
Su Wen didn't say much, squatted down and grabbed a bird demon, and looked at it.
The Archaeopteryx was about half a man tall, with an extremely wide wingspan, wide, sparse feathers, extremely hard and sharp claws and beaks, and dense serrations in the beak that were used to tear food.
There aren't many monsters that can fly, and the Archaeopteryx Demon should be considered the most common one.
But even if it is extremely common, the difficulty of hunting it and its strength level are not on the same level. These monsters usually live in small colonies, specializing in preying on lone monsters or beasts, and humans are also within their prey range.
Its wing feathers are an extremely rare ornament, but in the market, they are also priceless and extremely rare. In addition, claws and beaks are also quite good materials.
This bird demon is more like a beast than a monster. But unlike beasts, they have the breath of real monsters.
Seeing that a few people couldn't come up with a reason, Su Wen didn't bother to explain more, but said lightly: "But around here, there is nothing else to eat, the place I want to go to is in the south, it is estimated that there will be a few days away, maybe you can hold on and see if there is any other food along the way......"
After speaking, Su Wen shook his hand, and shaved the Archaeopteryx Demon in his hand with a circle of wind blades one after another.
Except for being a little bigger, Su Wen felt that the bird demon in his hand was not much different from a chicken or pigeon.
Hasa's eyebrows jumped, and he was a little stunned, obviously shocked by Su Wen's skill, such a precise technique was exactly the "ultimate skill" pursued by these swordsmen.
But such a high-level skill was actually used by Su Wen to shave bird feathers??
Su Wen looked around and found that there was no exposed water source nearby, so he simply stomped his foot, stepped out of a deep pit, and then stepped on it a second time, and a huge force extended all the way to the ground.
He...... What are you doing?
Several people's questions were answered by a stream of clear spring water gushing out after more than ten seconds.
Su Wen's two feet actually opened up a clear spring on this ancient battlefield!!
This kind of behavior can no longer be described as skillful, it is almost a miracle!
But in fact, under the ground of this plain, there are many undercurrents, and some tributaries of the Longjiang River are also all the way to the south, surging from the underground to the south of the ocean, coupled with the rainfall brought by the monsoon to the north, so that this ancient battlefield is not as barren as it seems.
After all, most monsters also need to drink water.
Su Wen moved the ground a little more, split the puddle in half, and then squatted down to clean up the corpse of the bird demon.
You can't kill chickens, but it's still easy to kill bird demons.
The three of them were also on the side, watching blankly as Su Wen skillfully shaved and eviscerated several bird demons one by one, and threw them into the pool.
Although most of the monsters are inedible, it seems that this Archaeopteryx Demon should not be on the list of unusables. Because even this white raw bird meat actually made a few people have a little appetite.
The signature grilled chicken in a famous store in Markway City should be like this before it is sent to the oven, right......?
