Chapter 15 Visitors

Master Mountbatten raised the topic in an indifferent tone, and turned to his two apprentices: "Modell, Feshi, haven't you always wanted to take off your apprentice's hat? Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info"

Moder and Faich looked at each other, both nervous, but the former's confidence seemed to be more abundant, and he nodded heavily, echoing loudly. Fei Xi, who usually thinks very highly of himself, after experiencing a series of unintentional blows from wandering mages, seems to be a little lacking in confidence, and timidly responds yes, but the voice is small and only heard by Moder next to him.

Master Mountbatten smiled disapprovingly, and waved his hand lightly for the two apprentices to prepare themselves, while he stayed in the meditation room and continued to refine his unknown plan.

After a belated lunch, Lu Bin heard from Moder a piece of news that could not be said to be good or bad, from Mr. Ethan Dimilit, the leader of the Harpists Order in Villanier, who had only been relayed by Maestro Mountbatten.

"An adventure to the gray forest, about seven days to the north, one of the abandoned ruins of the Elven Kingdom, is believed to be rewarding. ”

Lu Bin didn't think about it for a long time, about a quarter of an hour before and after, and then he made a decision that satisfied everyone, and then he began to prepare.

Moder found a waterproof cloak, a makeshift tent, a water bottle, dry food, a map, and all but the most versatile short knife to wear, and the rest of the miscellaneous items were stuffed into the backpack in one go, and it was a double portion. As for Ferchy, he carried insect repellent water, snake repellent medicine, flint, sickle, jerky, sourdough bread, and sorted spell materials.

Lu Bin's preparation was even simpler, except for bringing a set of waterproof cloaks, carefully folding and rolling them and stuffing them into his backpack, he didn't bring anything else.

Master Mountbatten was a little confused, a veteran of wilderness adventures, life and battles for many years, should be fully prepared, and then remembered the conversation between him and Modell, and once mentioned many techniques for wild life, and concluded that Lord Reze was a master of survival and did not need to carry too much baggage.

When everything was ready, it was almost dusk, and Fisch had the longest delay, so Master Mountbatten had no reason to let the three of them slip through the night to the Grey Forest.

But after a slight delay, the good hunter who smelled the smell and was looking for, Mr. Ethan Dimilit, unexpectedly and reasonably, appeared outside the mage's tower.

While Moder and Fisch were busy sorting out their backpacks, they missed the time to prepare dinner, and Lu Bin volunteered to go into the kitchen, ready to use his extensive experience to defeat the three Mountbatten masters and apprentices.

When he walked out of the kitchen with the fragrant salt and pepper shrimp in his hands, he was surprised to find a strange middle-aged man walking through the door of the Mage Tower.

He was not tall, but his body was so strong that he couldn't even hold up his clothes, he took off his hood, revealing his light blonde fluffy hair, his untrimmed beard grew wildly, he looked a little rough and bohemian, and his dark blue eyes were as clear as the ocean, which was easy to attract people's minds.

Lu Bin didn't care, and continued to set up the dishes for dinner on the long table, until a rough-made cowhide belt appeared in the field of vision in front of him, he stood up and saw the stranger, thinking it was a visitor from Master Mountbatten, and took a step back slightly to maintain a safe psychological distance, and then he could see the other party's outfit clearly.

Unbuttoned his cloak and hung on a coat rack at the door, his brown shirt was covered with a leather armor made of deerskin, two tubes of white potions pinned to the left side of his belt, and a thin-bladed short sword pinned to the right side, which was mounted in a simple scabbard to reveal a sharp point.

At such a close distance, Lu Bin smelled a strong smell of sweat, and lightly bowed his forehead without paying attention, his eyes turned to Master Mountbatten, the owner of the Mage Tower, and saw him smile and nodded, so he turned around and walked into the kitchen, continuing to show his cooking skills.

"Monsieur Ethan Dimilit, can you restrain yourself a little and not frighten the Baron's guests with your rash actions?"

The leader of the Harpists of Villanier City, knowing that his feelings were unintentionally revealed, he was afraid that he had aroused the suspicion of Master Mountbatten, but he did not care about the evaluation of others, so he spread his hands to show that he was innocent and blamed, and then walked to the bathroom very familiarly, wiped his face and hands with a white cloth towel dipped in water, and tidied up his outfit a little.

The storage room of the Mage Tower had a ten-day share of food, and even if a wandering mage with a wide stomach was added, the reserve was not reduced much, so the ten dishes made by Lu Bin were not afraid of being wasted.

The only thing to worry about is that there is an extra unfamiliar visitor, so everyone has to divide out a portion of the portion, which is obviously difficult for Lord Reze, who is in charge of the kitchen.

The first dish is chicken soup, which is shredded chicken to enhance the flavor, and the clear soup boiled in the chicken skeleton is mixed into a soup with freshly made starch juice and sprinkled with a little green onion.

Not to mention Moder and Faich, even Master Mountbatten gave a thumbs up after tasting it, as for the strange visitors, because the master had not made an introduction, Lu Bin did not communicate much, but he still saw him smile with satisfaction, obviously moved by this bowl of thick soup.

Then the second dish is the fish cutlet, which is a selection of fatty and delicious fish belly, removing the fine scales and bones, cutting it into two finger-wide strips, marinating it with spices mixed with ale wine to remove the fish, dipping it in egg wash and then wrapping it in a layer of flour, placing it in a small oil pan and frying it until golden brown, and then draining the remaining hot oil after serving.

When you eat it in your mouth, the residual warmth has not dissipated, the food remains delicious just right, and the crunchy texture of the crust is unforgettable. Even Fei Xi, who had prejudices against wandering mages, his eyes widened when he tasted it, and then he kept staring at Lu Bin, with complicated emotions in his eyes.

After the refreshing dish, it was the turn of the traditional pudding, Lu Bin steamed eggs with water, fresh milk and eggs, fine salt, grease and other ingredients mixed with water to make a boil, upside down on the plate, and put a mint on the burnt side up and bottom to garnish.

The leader of the harpists was also a man who had seen the world, and when he distributed the food on the plate in front of him, he trembled slightly, and couldn't help but stretch out his fingers and flick it.

Shaking and about to topple, who knew that after the water ripple shocked, it quickly returned to its original state, Ethan Dimirit laughed in surprise, did not expect such a strange food, pinched the small silver spoon and dug a piece, but unexpectedly melted in the mouth, this unprecedented experience, it is unbelievable.

In the endless amazement, everyone has gradually become numb, including Master Mountbatten, all of them are enjoying the delicious food cooked by Lu Bin, and they are completely intoxicated and unable to extricate themselves.

When the tenth course was finished, Ethan Dimilit leaned back on the back of his chair, patted his round belly, and smiled with some emotion: "I haven't felt like I've eaten for a long time, and today I'm a little indulgent." ”

Then he looked sideways at the "Wandering Mage" and gently bowed his forehead: "The day before yesterday, I received a message from Oriya's flying pigeon, saying that he had bumped into a wandering spellcaster in the wilderness in the town of resting feet, and it should probably be Your Excellency." ”

When Lu Bin heard the familiar name, his eyes lit up instantly, and it was estimated that this stranger had a lot to do with Oriya, so his attitude eased a lot, and he didn't look at Master Mountbatten's face, he nodded directly, which was regarded as a tacit acquiescence to his identity.

"Oria is one of our members of the Harpists, and he took advantage of the tour to walk around the Barony of Freud, and he didn't expect him to meet Your Excellency, and he helped a little bit, shouldn't we have a drink for it?"

One of the harpists, Mr. Ethan Dimilit, suggested that even Maestro Mountbatten should have no reason to refuse, but to raise a wooden cup with honey water and drink it with all those present.

He guessed that Ethan Dimirit's idea of playing the friendship card was not expected, so he did not object to it, but just watched with his eyes, secretly evaluating the pros and cons.

"Lord Reze is just a wandering wild mage in the wilderness, and he is so sought-after that he has attracted the harpist's leader in Villaniel City to personally recruit him, is there a secret behind him that I have not been able to detect?"

"Having said that, before the appearance of the rest town, there was no trace of Lord Reze, as if he appeared out of thin air, even if he used the spell to go back in time, he only saw the dark emptiness, could he ......"

Master Mountbatten's eyes narrowed slightly, as if he had found something very interesting.
