It was windy and cold at the top of the cliff, so everyone retreated to a small cave near the top of the mountain to rest for the night.
Today's dinner was a wild wild boar that Rogge shot when he went up the mountain. I have to say that the resources in the Secret Beast Garden are really rich. Rogge felt that hunting was much easier than in the Twilight Forest.
The wild boar is quite big. There are 6 people in Rogge's team plus Emil and Emily, brother and sister, a total of 8 people. They need to eat for several days. However, with the clear and turbid spirit tiger, the sky-splitting giant eagle and other spirit beasts around, there is no need to worry about running out of food.
Wild boar is more fragrant than domestic pigs. The wild boar meat, which has been carefully grilled by Rogge, is golden and oily, exuding a charming aroma that will make you want to eat. The soup made with big bones and served with fresh mushrooms picked from the mountains is extremely delicious.
What the brother and sister Emily are looking forward to most in the past few days is meal time. They are a little worried about what they will do with their spoiled tastes after they are separated from Rogge when things happen in the Secret Garden of Spirit Beasts.
While eating meat skewers, Emil encouraged Emily: "Sister, the book says that if you want to capture a man's heart, you must capture his stomach. You should quickly learn to cook from Rogge. This way in the future Only then can we hold on to that man from the Yanyang family."
Emily grew up with Emil, the brother she was most familiar with, and she understood his thoughts instantly. Emil didn't want her to manipulate others, but he wanted her to learn how to cook and cook for him.
Emily took a sip of bone soup and said to Emil: "Brother, I can handle him even if I don't know how to cook. But it's you who still can't find a girlfriend. Sister, I'm worried for you too. . Otherwise, you should learn to cook from Rogge. If you can be half as good as Rogge, you can definitely have three or five girlfriends."
When Emil heard about his girlfriend, he became anxious and said loudly: "Can't I find it? I didn't want to look for it at all! Look at your brother and my conditions, my appearance, and my strength. How can I still find her?" Don’t have a girlfriend? Let me tell you..."
Emily interrupted impatiently: "Oh, okay, okay, let's not talk about my girlfriend. You are the brother, so you have to cook for your sister. You see Roger is like this."
Ofina helped Emily, who is also a saint, and said: "That's right, a brother must love his sister. Emil, you should learn from it quickly."
Emil: "I..."
Ofina didn't give Emil a chance to speak: "What are you? If you don't obey me, I will tell Grandpa Holy King that you bullied my sister and ask him to beat you up!"
Emil, who didn't know how to quarrel, pointed at Ophina and gasped for air, but he didn't know what to say. After all, he still held the meat skewers grilled by her brother in his hand.
Emily took advantage of the victory and said: "Brother, even if you don't love me, there is still a second sister at home. That girl is such a greedy girl. If I tell her that you ate so many delicious food outside and don't give it to her, she will definitely I will cry and I won’t want to talk to you for the rest of my life.”
"You stinky girl, why don't I love you anymore?" Emil said.
"Wow, you are still scolding my sister. How can there be such a bad brother in the world? Brother, are you right?" Ophina looked at Rogge with her voice rising and falling.
Rogge silently added soup and vegetables to Ofina.
Emil looked at Emily, who was pretending to be pitiful, and Ophina, who was still trying to talk sarcastically, and thought about how his greedy second sister was crying like a cat, and gave in: "I'll learn. Isn't it okay for me to learn?"
Ofina stretched out her little hand to Emil.
Emil was stunned for a moment, and without turning his head after receiving the stimulation, he also reached out to shake hands.
Rogge had quick eyesight and quick hands, and quickly grabbed Emil.
"Yeah, you still want to take advantage of me, brother, help me beat him up!"
Emil quibbled: "No, what are you doing if you extend your hand instead of shaking hands?"
"I need tuition. My brother is a saint-level chef. You can pay the tuition as you see fit." After Ofina said that, she extended her little hand to Emil.
"Roger, you don't care if Ofina blackmails me?" Emil asked for help from his newly made friend.
Rogge patted Emil on the shoulder: "I am the leader of our team, but I listen to Nana."
Emil completely understood that Ofina was the most favored and the most favored person, but his own status might not be as good as the diligent sentry of the Sky-Splitting Giant Eagle.
Emil let out a long sigh, lamenting the fate of his fate, and took out a pure white gem the size of an egg that exuded a faint light from the space ring.
Emil put the gem in Ophina's hand and said: "This is the shimmering sacred stone unique to our Soul-Calling Holy Kingdom. It is a primary-level Phoenix-level treasure. It contains huge energy and has the ability to reverse time for a short period of time. , can return an object or a person to the state it was in a few minutes ago. How about it, is this enough?"
"That's enough, that's enough!" Ofina quickly stopped her hand and put the shimmering stone into her pocket as if she was afraid that Emil would regret it.
The rest of the team's eyes are a bit straight. This is a Fenglin-level treasure. It's the first time they've seen it.
Fenglin means phoenix feathers and horns. If the rare treasure is an outstanding treasure in a family, then the Fenglin grade is a national treasure.
Therefore, even the relatively well-informed Filia has only seen a few Phoenix-level items, including her father, Marquis Brandon's ash sword, and the long sword and armor of Emperor Charles of the Nalan Empire.
Emil surprised everyone by using a Phoenix-level treasure as tuition.
In fact, Emil didn't care, and thought a little proudly: "This was originally a gift given to her by grandpa. The stinky girl has always been angry with me, and now I give it to you as tuition. It's like a wave of free prostitution. You can make money with blood."
The more Emil thought about it, the more relieved he became. He almost laughed out loud and took a swig of beer.
That night, Ofina came to Rogge and slept next to him after "a long absence". Rogge whispered to her: "Nana, the Holy King is so kind to you. Emil is the grandson of the Holy King, so don't be embarrassed. Him."
Ophina took out the Glimmer Divine Stone and said, "I know. My brother is giving it to you. This is the tuition fee for you."
Rogge rubbed Ophina's head: "I'll give it to you because of your blackmail."
Ofina slapped Rogge's hand away: "Oh, isn't this shimmering stone beautiful?"
"nice."
"What about one last blackmail?"
Roger: "...Okay."
The two brothers and sisters looked at each other, and two evil smiles appeared on their faces.
Early the next morning, Emil followed the instructions of his master Rogge and cooked porridge and served it to his beloved sister. The porridge looks good, a bit like that.
Emily scooped up a spoonful, blew on it, put it into her mouth, and then facing Emil's expectant eyes, she spit it out.
Emily hurriedly rinsed her mouth with water and said: "Bah, bah, bah, brother, even if you don't love me anymore, you won't want to murder me, right? Why do you make porridge so salty?"
"Salty? I didn't put any salt. I know you like sweet food. I obviously added a lot of sugar." Emil didn't believe it. He tasted it and threw it up.
"Wrong addition, wrong addition, hehehehe."
The all-powerful Son failed in cooking for the first time in the past.
As soon as everyone walked out of the cave, they saw a bolt of lightning streak across the sky and land on the top of the cliff.
Accompanied by the "rumbling" sound of thunder and lightning, a low and powerful voice came from the top of the cliff: "The Thunder Eagle Clan welcomes everyone from the Spirit Summoning Holy Kingdom to Thunder Bluff, and specially invites you to come to the top of the cliff to participate in the selection trial at noon today. , those who pass can sign a spiritual contract with our spiritual eagle."
The sound spread throughout Thunder Bluff along with the thunder, surprising the humans on the cliff.
Only spirit beasts above the Spirit King level can speak human words. The clan leader of this Thunder Spirit Eagle is actually above the Spirit King level.
Rogge thought about it carefully and felt that it was quite reasonable. The Thunder Spirit Eagle can be regarded as a spirit beast of medium to high bloodline. It is not surprising that the leader of the clan in Thunder Bluff is the Spirit King level. There are two in the purple thunder flower sea at the foot of the mountain. As for the Spirit King-level Purple Lightning Butterfly.
Everyone climbed to the top of the cliff again, waiting for the arrival of noon.
At this time, a large number of people have gathered on the top of the cliff, most of them are soldiers and students from the Holy Spirit Summoning Kingdom. The civilians entered the park late, and most of them have not been to Thunder Bluff now.
Rogge also saw a few Imperial people, and also saw the true face of the Imperial soldier who was following them under Emil's eyes.
The man looked ordinary and wore the clothes of the Soul-Calling Holy Kingdom. He was no different from an ordinary person when he blended into the crowd. Even the keen Rogge couldn't see anything. He was obviously a master of disguise.
But he ignored the eyes in the sky, and the sky-splitting giant eagle was always staring at him.
At noon, another thunder suddenly broke out in the clear sky. The thick lightning struck the huge iron stone with great force. It looked very dangerous, but everyone was safe. This was the thickest thunder that everyone in Rogge had ever seen, and its energy was so powerful that the purple thunder flowers at the foot of the mountain continued to light up for dozens of seconds.
Just as the thunder flashed and disappeared, a thunder spirit eagle larger than the sky-splitting giant eagle appeared in people's sight.
There was a loud noise in the sky, and the Eagle King made his debut.
"Bah!" The high-pitched chirp of the eagle came accompanied by the rolling thunder, and the eagle king spread his purple-brown wings and descended in the wind.
When approaching the Iron Stone, the Eagle King retracted his wings, the purple light shone, and the Eagle disappeared, leaving a burly and handsome middle-aged man with purple hair standing on the Iron Stone.
The Eagle King, who can transform into a human form, has obviously reached the spiritual saint level, which is beyond everyone's expectations.
Most of the spirit beasts at the spirit saint level are the kings of their clans and are the pillars of the spirit beast secret garden. The clan here is not a small clan like the Thunder Spirit Eagle clan, but a large race of all types of Spirit Eagles including the Thunder Spirit Eagles.
Above the Spirit Saint level is the Soul Heaven level. It is a level that all Spirit Saint level spirit beasts dream of but most find it difficult to achieve. The number of Soul Heaven level spirit beasts in the secret garden is unknown, but they can definitely be counted on one hand. come over.
"The Thunder Eagle King is a spiritual saint. Could it be that he is the king of the spiritual eagle clan?" Emil thought to himself.
What the Eagle King said later confirmed Emil’s thoughts: “Good afternoon, dear human friends, I broke through to the Spiritual Saint level last year and ascended to the vacant throne of the Spirit Eagle clan. I have set up a special selection trial here to serve as the Thunder Spirit Eagle. Pick the right partner.”
"The first test is to jump from the top of Thunder Bluff. In order for their offspring to be brave enough to spread their wings and learn to fly, the spirit eagle clan will push the young eagles off the cliff. The brave young eagles fight in the sky and eventually become talented. Others are so frightened that they panic and end up doing nothing. I believe that you humans are the same, and this trial is specially designed to let you feel the starting point of the growth of our spiritual eagle clan."
"The middle part of the cliff facing the sea is buffered by a soft wind belt. If you control your body and open your arms like wings, you can fall into the sea safely. If you are afraid and panicked, you may be seriously injured or die. "
"Everyone, please line up and jump off the cliff."
