"Jesse, you're shopping for groceries too!"
"Yeah, what did you buy?"
"In this season, aren't there just a few fruits and vegetables? I'm really tired of eating these things every day!!"
"Then you should spend some money to buy some mutton and beef to improve the food."
"Are you paying me? How expensive is mutton? I'm satisfied if I can eat just one meal in a month. The three bastards at home are like a bottomless pit alone. They eat without any restraint!!"
"Whose family is different..."
Bates, the female hobgoblin, carried a woven rattan vegetable basket in her left hand. In the basket were some fresh fruits and vegetables she bought from outside the town. While shopping for groceries, I happened to meet Jesse, a female hobgoblin with whom I was close, and the two got together and chatted enthusiastically while shopping.
"By the way, I heard that the patriarch's birthday celebration is going to be a big one. Will your family participate?"
"Participate, why don't you! The great patriarch has blessed us and given our family a peaceful and peaceful living environment now. We should be grateful to him!!"
"That's right, look at those guys in the wilderness, and then look at our life, we can't be too happy!!"
"That is……"
The two chatted and slowly disappeared into a small alley full of greenery. They laughed and laughed from time to time, looking very comfortable.
The scene of Green Lake Town has changed a lot, and there have been quite a few changes.
The biggest change is that there are more and more evergreen plants in and outside the town. With the frequent exchanges between the dark elves and Green Lake Town, the residents of Green Lake have begun to pursue the quality of life after they no longer have the pressure to survive. Not only There are more requirements for comfort in the layout of one's own home, and at the same time, there are also more requirements for the environment of the town to be pleasing to the eye.
This resulted in an increase in green plants in the town, and green potted plants, edible berry shrubs, vegetables, etc. began to be planted in front of every household.
In addition, the town hired professional gardeners, and now that there is no longer a shortage of water resources, the gardeners began to plant tall trees in vacant places in order to show their ability. The tribe actually asked Korima Signs of town green development.
In the center of the square where the hilltop was flattened and opened up, the majestic bugbear sculpture created in Allen's image was surrounded by potted plants. From a distance, apart from the solemn aura, More of a sacred atmosphere.
For the goblins of the Green Field Tribe, there are always people who spontaneously come to the sculpture in their free time to clean the sculpture, clean up the garbage, or put a potted plant of their own choice. On Allen's birthday, many goblins would come to the square to gather to celebrate the birthday of the clan leader who was not present. It was considered a small festival for the clan.
As for how Allen's birthday was spread, it is unknown. Anyway, the goblins had already started celebrating like this a long, long time ago.
But on the third day of the second week of the Flower Moon in the Og calendar 13561, the entire Green Lake Town fell into a joyful atmosphere because of the arrival of the great patriarch's birthday. Every household was preparing, putting on the brand-new clothes they bought at home, taking out the food and wine collected at home, and secretly sending them to the square, just to show their gratitude.
Because there were too many people sending gifts, the new Green Lake Mayor Tris simply discussed with other leaders in the town, and directly ignored Allen's opinion and made a big deal for Allen in the name of Green Lake Town. A birthday celebration.
Tris and the others knew the character of Patriarch Allen, and if they asked Allen for instructions, he would definitely not allow everyone to make a fuss over this matter.
However, the enthusiasm of the tribesmen is unstoppable. There are too many gifts that have no place to store, and many of them have no storage value. Rather than throwing them away, it is better to use the waste and feed these gifts back to the tribesmen in the town, which can not only gain people's hearts but also What a great thing to be able to avoid wastage! !
The top officials in the town have announced that they will hold a grand celebration, and the residents below are naturally happy to see it happen. There are not many entertainment activities in this world, but now it has been changed to a tribal competition and cooking competition every four years, which can attract countless people. The residents watched and cheered, let alone celebrating the great leader's birthday. In the hearts of most goblins, that was really very important! !
You know, goblins have grown up listening to the legendary stories of the great patriarch. Regardless of whether they choose to embark on the path of warriors, young goblins often regard Allen as their idol and goal. After this concept is formed, Even in middle age, not much will change.
After all, as an idol, Allen is not in danger of the house collapsing! !
Every household decorated the house with lights and colorful decorations, and on Allen's birthday, countless fireworks and firecrackers, and various musical instruments were played, turning the huge Green Lake Town into a sea of joy.
The large number of chefs trained in the town were not idle either. A large number of ingredients collected by the mayor's hall were distributed to the chefs. Pictures of spatulas flying on the flames appeared in every corner. Everyone showed off their housekeeping skills. , making fragrant dishes one after another, and serving them directly to the tables laid out along the street.
The square used to be a gathering place for everyone to celebrate Allen's birthday. Now, as the scale of the celebration has expanded, it is certain that the venue cannot accommodate tens of thousands of clan members to gather together, so naturally not many people come to the sculpture to pay homage to the majestic image of the clan leader.
This is not because everyone only cares about the carnival, but because of the venue restrictions. After all, when the square was first built, the total population of the tribe was only a few hundred. Who could have imagined that it would be so huge now! !
The wide main road is filled with dining tables of different sizes and shapes. Several neighboring goblins gather together. Everyone chats with each other while tasting the wine and food. When the mood is high, they will yell. Celebrate the birthday of Patriarch Allen who is not present and express his inner gratitude.
At this time, the bugbear leader Allen, who was supposed to be the protagonist of the town's carnival, was hiding in the white clouds above Green Lake Town, looking at the happy scene in the town with a complicated expression and a bit of embarrassment.
"Tsk, tsk, tsk, I just said that you have a majestic image among your people and your rule is deeply popular. You see, I am right!!"
On the side, Figueras, who had stolen a roasted beef leg from somewhere and was feasting on it, looked at Allen with a smile, his face full of teasing.
No wonder, as the protagonist was not present, the tribesmen below shouted their congratulations as if Allen had died a long time ago. It was not clear whether Allen was happy or angry at this time.
“Let’s chew your bones!!”
Allen shot back angrily.
Originally, according to his intention, there was no need to engage in such formalistic things. In addition, in recent years, the construction of water conservancy facilities and disaster relief had consumed a lot of money from the tribal public treasury, so there was no need to waste the only resources. But Figueras believes that this is a great opportunity to prove and spread Allen's image and status, laying a solid foundation for the next God of Cookery plan.
With a reputation and an image that is deeply rooted in the hearts of the people, the false god plan to promote the God of Cookery has a much higher chance of success.
Figueras, who has become Allen's mentor, uses his little inherited knowledge to give Allen advice. However, Allen was very cooperative. Compared with the dragon's inheritance and experience, Allen's understanding of the road to becoming a god in his two hundred years of life was a big zero.
Turning his eyes back to the sea of joy in the town, Allen's face, apart from a little embarrassment, was mostly filled with relief at being recognized. For more than two hundred years, Allen has devoted most of his energy to the development and management of the tribe. Today, the tribe's heartfelt support and admiration for him is a reward for his efforts over the years.
Seeing this small celebration day in Allen's eyes, it made a certain thought in his heart become more determined, and his eyes became less confused and hesitant.
The giant dragon beside him seemed to be eating the roasted beef leg with great interest. In fact, he saw Allen's subtle changes in his eyes from the corner of his eyes, and the corners of his mouth couldn't help but raise slightly.
The celebration day had been held for two full days, and the joyful atmosphere gradually calmed down. However, privately, the goblins would get together excitedly and talk about which table had novel dishes and which table was more delicious.
Not only the goblins, but also the merchants and travelers who happened to be staying in Green Lake Town also benefited from it, eating and drinking in the town for free for two days. Many delicacies and novel dishes that were inaccessible before were put on the table by the goblin chefs this time, which really made it worthwhile for these guests.
"...It is indeed a city of gourmet food!! This time it opened my eyes. Compared with the so-called royal chefs in our country, they are not even the slightest bit worse than the chefs in this town!!"
In a tavern in the town, a group of people of different races from all over the world gathered peacefully and lined up in front of the bar.
A middle-aged human man who looked like he had just come here because of the reputation, with aftertaste and enjoyment on his face, was looking through the delicacies he had just eaten in his memory, with a few drops of 'sadness' unconsciously left on the corner of his mouth. tears.
"You have made a profit this time. It is your first time to have this rare celebration day. I have only seen many dishes at the cooking competition held once every few years in their town. I only tasted them yesterday!!"
There was another handsome elf from the Elf Kingdom. Although it was impossible to tell his age, he was at least sure from his tone that he was another gourmet who came here for delicious food.
“Everything in the world is edible!!”
“Cooking is art, and the dining table is the chef’s battlefield!!”
On the other side, a dwarf stroked his chin with one hand, which was braided into dozens of small braids due to the lush beard. He raised the beer in front of him, swallowed it heartily, and said a few words that seemed to be confusing.
"What's the meaning?"
"Yeah, what did you say!!"
The other guests seemed to be attracted by the dwarf's words and turned to look at the dwarf.
""Quotations of the God of Cookery", don't you know??"
The dwarf seemed casual, but the complacency in his eyes betrayed his true heart.
"These two sentences were spoken by the God of Cookery himself. They are now printed as the standard textbook "Quotations of the God of Cookery" that cooks must learn. In the future, they will be the philosophical foundation for cooks to study new dishes!!"
""Quotations of the God of Cookery"? Isn't the God of Cookery the leader of their tribe, Allen?? These words were said by him himself??"
Everyone was even more curious and continued to ask.
"Of course, otherwise the town's cooking school wouldn't be able to publish what the God of Cookery said into a book!! Let me tell you, many of the words above are very philosophical..."
"Yeah??"
"Of course, for example, 'If you have a good heart, poison can also be used to cook delicious food; if you have a bad heart, delicious food can also be transformed into poison.'"
"Also, that sentence..."
"Oh! Oh oh!!"
A group of people listened with great interest, and the image of Allen, the God of Cookery, silently improved in their hearts.
At a quiet wine table in the corner that no one noticed, a dwarf sat with his back to the guests who were whispering and chatting. He looked just like the guests in the tavern. He was just spending a boring night in the tavern. In fact, He had a pair of pointed ears, but he had been listening intently to what the guests in the tavern were talking about.
When he heard the words 'Quotes from the God of Cookery' in the other party's words, the dwarf had a mysterious smile on his face. Soon after, he checked out and left without disturbing other guests, like a ghost. Usually, no guests notice his coming or going at all.
The figure of the dwarf looks very harmonious in the dark night. Although Green Lake Town has spent a lot of money to install fluorite lighting on the surrounding main avenues to prevent the streets from being too dark. However, when the dwarf is walking, he always He habitually bypasses the pale white dim light illuminated by fluorite, and his whole body blends into the darkness. Almost no one can see the other person's face and whereabouts clearly.
Until around a small garden full of green flowers and grass, the figure of the dwarf suddenly disappeared out of thin air. No one in the quiet garden saw this scene.
Crunch! !
Hundreds of meters away, deep in a remote alley, a door in a small courtyard was slowly pushed open, and the dwarf who disappeared in the garden finally emerged from the shadow plane, revealing his original face.
"No one is following you?"
"I've turned around several times and haven't found the tail."
In the room, a vague figure wearing a bronze mask asked as the dwarf arrived.
"Has the news spread?"
"Well, I just stayed in the Night Owl Bar for a while, and the group of drunkards there already know about the 'Quotations of the God of Cookery'."
The dwarf shadowwalker Cohan was originally an intelligence collector in the tribal intelligence system. Later, as the tribal intelligence system was integrated with Snowmi and Crow's Claw to establish the Joint Intelligence Agency, some of their members were individually drawn out and joined Green Lake Township Intelligence Department.
A few days ago, Cohan and several other colleagues were taken out of the Intelligence Department after a test and formed a now unknown organization.
Their mission is very simple but not simple, that is, to spread certain rumors ordered by their superiors to every corner of the town without anyone discovering any trace of their existence.
Until now, Cohan did not know the face of the superior in front of him. From his exposed body and skin, he could roughly judge that the other person was a male hobgoblin. He could not even determine the other person's true combat position.
