The Defeated Dragon

A flash of pale yellow magic light seemed to be the present in the tree’s base and in its treetop. Liszt could clearly see on top of it since it wasn’t very tall. There seemed to be magic exuding from the top. There was no doubt that sprites were inhabiting there.

That is, this whole tree is a sprite worm!

Recognizing this, Liszt was immediately distressed, Russell had cut off a thick branch, and Griffin gave the tree a hack of his sword. Liszt was causing troubles to his own sprites.

“Teacher Marcus, Russell, Griffin, this tree is a sprite worm.” He touched some rough bark. “My sprite worm is gestating. I can feel its existence. You must protect it. And then after it is born, I will come again to complete the contract.”

“Are there really sprites?” Russell licked his lips.

Marcus was not surprised, he knew the moment Liszt’s eyes lit up. “Master, please rest assured, I will arrange people to visit this tree at any time, once the sprite is born,I will notify the Lord Baron immediately!”

Griffin said excitedly, “Russell, you just cut down the branches of a sprite worm! And I cut a hole in the sprite worm! Our Lord is indeed the son of glory. The knight’s glory is in his favor. We have another  sprite worm in Flower Town! ” Liszt wasn’t clear whether he was excited about the sprites or about cutting the sprite worm.

Anyway.

The three people who were originally somewhat confused about the natural glue quickly attached importance to it because this time it was about the breeding of sprites.

Breeding sprites is a valuable matter for them. In their minds, the sprites are symbols of nobility and a symbol of power.

Liszt looked at the big sprite worm tree in front of him and was in a good mood. “Although 16 serfs died because of the poisonous bee hive, and it is very painful, there are gains and losses. So now, we have more new crops and sprites. I now give this tree the name of “rubber tree.”

This rubber tree is not the same as the rubber tree on earth, he just borrowed its name.

The sprite worm that is about to be bred will also become the rubber tree sprite worm

It was already dark.

Some rubber samples were collected, and some of the poison bee’s bodies were picked up and taken back with them. After returning to the port town, they immediately went to find wood and made a box out of it to put the poisonous bee hive inside.

“Teacher Marcus, the poison sac of the poison bees can be collected. The bee venom can be collected and refined, and maybe a good poison can be obtained from it.”

Speaking of poisons, the fast-growing poisonous thorns in Flower Town were the real poisonous ones. The thorns could cut through the skin and could cause a person to form ulcers and would leave ugly scars, however, no one could actually die from it. But after refining the poison, the toxins would then be smelted on a soldier’s blade. Ordinary beasts would twitch at most, not to mention a clot of  blood constricting the throat.

It can also be hit hard, making creatures  weak in a short period of time, even against the might of magical beasts. And in the future, after for a long period of  time, the resilience of the magical beast will decline.

It can also have the same effect on knights.

Poisoning was not considered an honorable act. It is the complete opposite of the noble character of a knight to charge directly.

But poisons were usually  just a toxin with a weak effect, and it doesn’t matter if it is used. Naturally, war depends on various means, not all related to the sheed of blood. The victor is qualified to show his noble character only when the vanquished are defeated and the victor is crowned king. Losers either die, go bankrupt or become serfs, which is not related to nobility.

Marcus understood this and immediately nodded and replied, “I will have people pick up all the bodies of poison bees and dig out the poison sacs to refine the poison.”

“Very good.”

————–

The next morning.

Liszt returned to Flower Town by boat, leaving Marcus and others to continue to preside over the construction of Port Town.

The first thing he did when he returned to the castle was to order the servants to clean up the poisonous bee hive. “Mrs. Abby, have someone to pick out all the pupae in the poisonous bee hive, and then scrape out all the honey … But first find a small animal to test if it is poisonous, and if not, add it to my menu.”

Oh, my god, what a hornet’s nest, sir! You must wait to enjoy the delicious bee pupa. When I was a child, I couldn’t cut out a hornet’s nest to find those lovely and delicious honey bee pupae to cook. And these honey, look, look, the golden yellow color is amazing! “

Mrs. Abby looked around the huge poisonous bee hive, very excited.

Intentionally or unintentionally, since Mrs. Abby came to the castle in Flower Town, she has become a famous top chef under Liszt. Everyone has said that “Mrs. Abby is clever and skillful”, “Mrs. Abby’s dishes are amazing” and “Mrs. Abby’s mind is full of delicious food”, which intoxicated her.

She has been caught in the innovative business of constantly developing new dishes, unstoppable.

To this end, the castle not only recruited a serf chef as her assistant, but also recruited two new kitchen servants.

There is now Chef Julia, a serf bought from Eagle Kingdom. She has no surname.

The two kitchen servants Oli and Kelsey are also serfs bought from Eagle Kingdom, both again do not have  surnames.

Unlike the Sapphire Grand Duchy, many serfs in the Eagle Kingdom do not have surnames. They have farmed fields for generations and have little travelling experience. They basically do not need surnames. For example, the sisters Paris and Maggie do not have surnames as well. Aberdeen and Huntela, who helps Frank Distiller make wine, do not have surnames too.

In the history of the founding of the Sapphire Grand Duchy, a large number of serfs were purchased. In order to facilitate the census and strict control of serfs, all serfs were forced to start using surnames.

Noble vocabulary was not allowed to use, which directly caused the surnames of civilians to be all messy and cheap words.

Before becoming a noble, the surname of Liszt’s ancestors was the lowly word “Tile”. After the rise of the Tulip sprite, the surname changed to the noble word “Tulip”.

While Mrs. Abby was busy slamming the poisonous bee hive.

Liszt began to train the eight little Blizzards, and according to his instructions, the new dog tags were already hung on the neck of each Blizzard beast.

“Storm, Flame, come!”

“Wang Wang!”

“Woo!”

Meat jerky sure is the quickest way to enhance the bond between the two.

The plump blizzard beasts, having no resistance to dried meat, quickly pounced on Liszt, licking both his hands and the jerky. On Storm’s neck hung a green dog tag, and on Flame’s was a red dog tag.

Liszt trained the two little Blizzards according to the method he had come up during training.

He went on to the other three kennels.contemporary romance

The yellow dog tag was hung on Rocks, while the dark blue dog tag was hung on Waves. The purple dog tag was on Thunder, the white dog tag on Light; the light blue dog tag was hung on Ice and Snow, while the black dog tag was hung on Shadow.

The names of the eight Blizzard beasts correspond to the eight magical attributes of wind, fire, earth and water, thunder and light.

It doesn’t make much sense, nor does it conform to their physical characteristics. Liszt  just those names to distinguish them.

After one and a half hours of training, Liszt took the milk tea from the housekeeper and gulped it down. “The workload is too heavy, and the dog training is using up all of my energy and time!”

He had a hunch that in the process of the Blizzard Beasts’ growth,he would have no spare time to write “Dragon Chronicles in the Wild”.

“It seems that it is really going to be a series of history books for a lifetime.”
