Chapter 53: The Elephant's Head

After a while, four big men came up with a huge wooden plate: it was placed on the table with a clatter, and then four huge horns fell directly to the side of the four.

What is this? Is this what people eat?" Menes thought as she looked at the food on the table.

"This is our local specialty, there is just one today, and it will be given to you before you have even cut it!" said the waiter.

"That's too big, isn't it? The four of us eat it? Besides, your food is too rough for me to eat. Menes said in embarrassment as she looked at the food.

"My lord, you said that you want local food, just come, and ask for a large glass of wine, this is our biggest and best food, the whole roasted elephant's head from the Fortress of Lashen!" the waiter obviously deliberately mocked Menes.

Forget about the horn cup more than one meter long, what kind of food is this whole roasted elephant head, it looks terrible!

Menes has never eaten this animal, it is illegal to eat this wild animal in the former world, Menes has never eaten it, not even a wild bird, at most it is to eat a so-called pheasant, and now it has an elephant's head, and it also has an elephant's trunk, ears, tongue, and eyes......

Oh my God, it's so rude, but what should I do if I yell it out?

All the diners stopped their knives and waited for the people from this valley to eat this large pile of meat!

Rasim didn't mind, looking at the light in his eyes, he liked big animals, roasted whole sheep, roasted whole cows, didn't the camel also roast last time, now it should be no problem to eat an elephant, I don't know if it's delicious.

Rasim took the lead in pulling out his knife, cutting off a piece of the elephant's trunk and stuffing it into his mouth, and chewing it with a squeak, Menes suddenly thought, does the elephant catch a cold?

Jett and Bata also laughed, this kind of food had been heard, but it was also the first time they had eaten it, for the Kemert people, eating wild animals has no psychological shadow, the animals on the grassland are the food given by the gods, and His Majesty Pharaoh's traditional hunting activity is to hunt hippos, crocodiles and other animals, killing everyone and sharing them.

Menes frowned, cut off a piece of the elephant's face with a knife, put it on a plate, and tried to eat it for a long time.

Well, to be honest, it's a little old, and the meat is hard and has no oil and water, but it can be eaten.

Menes put down the knife and said to the waiter, "Come, help cut it, and distribute it to everyone sitting here today, I can't have it alone, and give everyone a big glass of wine, ask for a big glass, I'll treat you, it's all mine!"

"Hahaha......" the waiter laughed loudly, "There are adults having a treat today, everyone has a drink, and the band is playing!"

When the band heard the shout, they immediately played a cheerful music excitedly, and some people stood up excitedly to bless Menes.

Menes was happy and stood up and shouted, "Everyone have a good drink, today is all mine, I wish you all to meet monsters in the Desert of Death!"

"Thank you, Lord Menes, Lord of the Holy Cat State, for giving us fine wine, and may the gods bless us!" Rasim stood up to promote Menes.

"Long live the valiant Lord Menes!" someone shouted.

Menes sat down and whispered to the waiter, "Please give me a roast chicken, thank you!" After saying that, he did not forget to stuff a silver coin to the waiter, and the waiter understood and ran down with the money.

The atmosphere of the scene was heated up by Menes, and the three wandering hunters in the corner, dressed in tattered leather clothes, picked up their wine glasses and touched them and drank them all.

"I heard that there is a hole in the Nine Gods defense line, and the Holy City has sent an archmage to repair the defense line, which requires a lot of kaba. One of Scarface said.

"Well, that's right, it's been a few days, and now it's a lot of high-grade cabas, and the purchase price is high. Another bearded man responded.

"Then we might be able to make a lot of money, so much money, the Nine Gods Legion actually took out so much money at once, where did this money come from?" Scarface asked.

"Where......? It's this Gentleman Lord, you're drinking other people's wine for nothing!" the bearded man pointed at Menes.

"He's really rich, it's just right to be a lord, it's like we fight for life and death just for a little money, we have to make a good amount of money!" Scarface sneered.

"You'd better be careful, this isn't an ordinary ghost, he killed him the last time the undead beast attacked the river valley. The thin man in the shadows said.

"Really, it's him, so powerful, big brother, how can a gentleman have the ability to kill a death spirit beast?"

"He's got the god of the mourner, and I've heard that he's the king of the mummies who came back from the dead, and he has a team of gods and punishment mummies, so he's not the one we can make up his mind, so we'd better be honest, and I'm going to go into the Desert of Death after today, where the brothers are waiting, and it's the right way to kill the undead beasts and get a little Kaba. The thin man who was called Big Brother said.

"Why do all the good things fall on the dignitaries? Why don't I show my godhead?"

"Godhead, the Godhead of the mourner is short-lived, do you want to die early?" the bearded man laughed.

"Hmm...... Big brother should be able to survive his fate!" Scarface hurriedly added.

"Huh...... Fate, I can't get through it, so I have to live every day, so I won't go to the Nine Gods Legion to die, let me join the army, forget it, I'm not interested!" said the thin man after drinking a large glass of wine.

"Yes, yes, the eldest brother is right, live every day happily!" the three of them clinked glasses and said.

The large glass of wine did not stun Menes, but the urgency of urination, the thatched room of the Tavern of the Fortress of the Gods stinked terribly, and Menes missed his new flush toilet in his domain home very much, and in the future he had the opportunity to sell the new toilet to every corner of the kingdom.

The next morning, Menes arrived at the barracks' canteen on time, the breakfast was more sumptuous than Menes had imagined, and it seemed that Zosse did not have the habit of being abused, and if he could give everyone good conditions, he should try to give them as much as possible, at least he should not deduct everyone's food.

The food in the canteen is the same as everyone, there is no difference between officers and soldiers, the Nine God Legion is very good in this regard, there is no real distinction between nobles and commoners, there is no distinction between slaves and free people, and it doesn't matter if you are from that country, when you enter the barracks, you are soldiers, and when you enter the fortress, you are free people.

The only difference is that the officer's eating place should be spacious, unlimited, and have the service of the orderly, which is considered the prerogative of the officer, and it is hoped that the officer can get rid of the basic work and spend his time on military affairs, after all, the officer has a lot of copywriting work.

Dzose sat at the front of the long table, Menes and Jett were seated on Djose's left hand side, and Batta and Rasim were not invited to dine with the soldiers.

Heron sits on the right hand as the cavalry commander, and Heron is not only the cavalry commander but also the adjutant of the left seybe, so his status is still relatively high.

Zuo Se reached out and broke a piece of bread, put it in the milk bowl in front of him, soaked it, reached out and grabbed it and stuffed it into his mouth.

Menes also soaked the bread in a bowl as well, and then picked it up with the chopsticks he carried with him and put it in his mouth, Zuo Se frowned and said, "Mistress Menes, I have heard that you eat with a wooden stick, and you think it is very elegant?"

"No, I'm just hygienic, you're prone to getting sick when you eat like this, and your temple doesn't want to heal people, so I think it's better not to get sick!" replied Menes.

"Huh...... There is no disease in the Death Desert, only death, and if there is no food, you can't eat with two big trees!" Zose seems to like to scare people, especially Menes like this, in his opinion, Menes's way of eating and letting go is that the children of Menes are pretending to be vassal.

Menes didn't bother to pay attention to him, this Zuo Sai felt very difficult to get along with, and he didn't like himself, so forget it, whatever he wanted, Menes just wanted to come to the God Fortress to experience it, and at the same time understand the situation of the undead beasts, and didn't plan to be friends with him, or Jett was right, it's good if we don't use it as a shield, friendship? Forget it, it seems that the friendship of the Nine God Legion is not easy to take.

Menes was just about to ask about the undead beast, but before he could speak, he was interrupted by Zose and said, "Menes, our military camp is currently in short supply of various materials, including food, so we need to go out to find food, I don't know if you are interested?"

Looking for food? How to find it? There is no farmland in the Yellow Desert here, and you have to find a good place even if you want to rob? Besides, didn't I give you a lot of material support?

"You have given us a lot of material support, and I thank you on behalf of the Nine God Legion, but what you give is mainly military supplies, and there is no food, so we have to go out to find food. Zosse knew what Menes was thinking, and said directly.

"Oh, all right, Commander Djose, I just don't know how you're going to find food, do you need us to go to the valley to buy it?" Menes thought to herself, aren't you just asking me for money?

"No, we don't go to the valley to ask for food, we have food. ”

If you have food, are you looking for a fart food?

"We need meat, soldiers need meat to be strong, we can't just eat bread all day!" said Zuo Sai and stuffed the bread into his mouth again.

If you want to find meat, I don't produce meat, what are you going to do, Menes drank the milk and said, "Please Commander Dzose, what do you need us to do?"

"Hunting!"

"There's a spring in the southwest, and there's a lot of animals there, and I need your help to hunt and get some food!" said Zose.

Hunting? Menes really didn't expect Djose to use this method to get food.

"Honorable Commander, I think you're mistaken, we're here to support you against the undead beasts, not to be hunters or cooks. Jett interjected.

Zuo Sai said easily, going out to hunt is like an outing, this is the desert of death, killing machines are everywhere full of undead beasts, casually run out to hunt, when the time comes, adult prey, directly face the undead beasts, but what is hunting? If something goes wrong, when it comes to going out to play and being bitten to death by wild beasts?

Jett didn't want to be a hunter for the Legion of the Nine.

"Lord Jett, you have misunderstood, the Legion is in urgent need of food at the moment, this is the greatest help to us, of course I will also arrange personnel to go with you, and by the way, I can also train the army's field combat ability. Zosse said.

Menes smiled, this Zuo Sai clearly treated himself as a gentleman, thinking that Menes had no combat ability, and wanted to pull out for training, to see Menes's strength, and by the way, he was getting some food.

Zosse saw Menes and said without replying, "Menes, this is the barracks, since you are here, you must obey my command, I am the commander here, my barracks do not raise idlers, besides, you may be able to eat elephant heads again!"

Hehe...... There is eyeliner everywhere, and someone reported it today when I went out for dinner yesterday.

Isn't it just hunting, and I'd love to go out and see it, I'm not here to see your fortress, so well, Menes thought to herself.

"Yes, Commander, I can go hunting, but I don't know what you want?" Menes asked.

"There are no special requirements, I'll give you twenty days, I need you to get a thousand talantes of beast meat, can you finish it?" asked Zose.

1,000 tarrants are deliberately making things difficult for people, which is equivalent to 500,000 kilograms, and a 100,000 kilograms for an antelope at most, just to hunt 5,000 antelopes, where to find it?

This is not the Serengeti savannah, how can there be so many animals, even if you hunt a hundred elephants!

Jett angrily dropped his chopsticks and said, "Commander, if you don't want us here, we can leave now, no need to do this." ”

"Haha...... Adults are angry, we don't mean to be embarrassed, this little thing, if you can't do it, we can't do it, in fact, last time we had a hunt, it went well, and we got a lot of prey, how many prey was Herron last twenty days!"

"Two thousand tarrants!" replied Heron.
