Chapter 187 Consideration

Chapter 187 Consideration

After putting on his clothes and giving a few simple instructions to his tribesmen to clean up the battlefield, Beorn came over and looked at Levi, the Eagle King, and Gandalf in front of him, and he was also a little confused.

"I didn't expect that just a small battle would alert the lords of the free cities, the King of Birds, and the wizards to come and check it out."

“It’s really flattering.”

"We just happened to be in the Eagle's Nest to discuss something."

Gandalf stepped forward to explain, "This was beyond our expectations. The Eagle King was the first to notice the movement here, and then Levi came over impatiently, leaving us far behind."

His tone was quite helpless.

"I think the Orcs know by now that the new folk of the Vales of Anduin are not to be trifled with."

Evidence of this statement is everywhere.

Gandalf used his staff to push the dead Orcs aside and clear the way.

Peace returned to the tribe of Beorn.

While the folks were disposing of the bodies of the Orcs and the Wargs, Beorn brought in a table and placed it in the courtyard beside the hall, which was made of pure wood.

After all, the Eagle King is there too, and we can't just let the three of them go into the house and leave the Eagle King outside.

Li Wei waved his hand and said, "No need to entertain us too much. We don't have anything to do. We just saw it and helped."

"Your help to us is more than just 'handy' in my opinion."

Beorn looked at the great road in the sky, whose outline was vaguely visible, and said, "Great wealth has flowed to us through that road, and its help to us is real and unquestionable."

"Let's continue with our pre-war conversation. If there's a need, we'll be happy to do something."

"It's nothing special. You did everything you could."

Thinking about the information and reports he saw in the Mayor's Office of Changhu Town a few days ago, Li Wei said, "And you have already done a lot of things."

When the road was extended and connected to the territory of the Beorn clan, they took the initiative to assume the responsibility of maintaining the road from Mirkwood to the Misty Mountains.

This is beneficial to both parties.

"Oh, by the way, the beehives and the giant bees inside, I want to take some back and raise them myself."

As for the bees that Beorn keeps, they are also quite magical.

First of all, they are huge in size, almost as big as half a fist, and they are relatively gentle and will not sting people.

And it looks quite cute, yellow and round, flapping its wings while flying in the air, a bit like... Bombur.

"Okay, this is what we have discussed long ago."

"Where do you want to raise it? I'll send it to you."

"I want to warn you," said Beorn, "that the habits of this species of bee may be slightly different from those of other species. I can tell you about these differences and precautions little by little."

"Don't worry about this. I have some special methods."

Seeing Levi so confident, Beorn could only nod and give up the idea of ​​teaching him.

Maybe he does have some special methods, just like Radagast the Brown, the wizard who loves nature and animals of all sizes can communicate with animals, and both ferocious and gentle animals can get along well with the wizard.

Except for the Wargs.

"Well, I'm sure you can handle it. It seems that the beekeeping manual I recently wrote is of no use."

Beorn said regretfully, "That may be one of the few things I can do better than you. I regret that I couldn't teach you a lesson."

Attend class?

Li Wei felt a chill on his back, and he quickly changed the subject: "I think it's getting late, it's time to eat!"

Beorn looked at the setting sun in the distance and tactfully ended the topic.

"Indeed."

A moment later, flames rose in the courtyard.

The Eagle King landed nearby and kept swallowing the fresh meat that Levi had brought specially, eating very happily.

These steaks are always fresh and clean. Not to mention the Eagle King, even Gandalf sometimes feels the urge to try them.

But Levi never gave him any food.

"If you think your teeth are good enough, you can give it a try."

Bringing over a basket of Beorn's special honey cakes, and placing some wild fruits, vegetables and dairy products on the table, Levi began to show off his cooking skills.

Click.

Soon a plate of roast meat was placed before Gandalf, with a piece of raw beef on the edge of the plate.

Looking at the tempting bright red color and the jade-like pleasing patterns, Gandalf finally couldn't help it. He tentatively forked up the small piece of raw meat and put it in his mouth to chew.

Gulp.

"It doesn't have much taste, but it's not unpalatable either." Gandalf commented.

"In the past, in some emergency situations when there was no time to roast the meat, I sometimes ate it raw." Levi thought about his experience of opening a new save file when he was a novice.

“Except for chicken.”

If you eat this thing raw, there is a 30% chance of getting the hunger debuff, which is not worth it.

"I can't imagine what the situation would be like if you didn't even have time to cook."

Of course, it’s the situation where you go out and forget to bring food, are hungry, and are being chased.

If you don’t eat, you won’t be able to run.

"Then don't think about it."

"Well, I won't explore it any further. I'll just leave it alone in your memory."

After tasting the raw meat and satisfying his curiosity, Gandalf turned his attention to the other food on the table.

The leaf Beorn was chewing seemed delicious, too.

So he took a bite.

This bite made old Gandalf silent for several seconds.

'Why should I go toe-to-toe with a man who only eats raw meat and a man who only eats vegetarian food?'

Even so, the honey cake made by Beorn himself is still quite good, almost equivalent to a weakened version of Rambass. One piece can increase a lot of satiety and it is also delicious.

Levi took a bite and was quite surprised.

This is really good and is much more suitable as a travel ration than any jerky or barbecue.

On the other side, Beorn keenly noticed the change in Levi's mood after tasting the cake, and he said:

"This cake is a secret of our (Skin-changer) clan, but you are an exception. If you are willing to promise me not to spread it casually, I can tell you how to make it."

"With great pleasure."

Levi accepted it readily. Although the recipe was actually unlocked after he came into contact with the baking oven and cake in Beorn's house, he didn't mind hearing more about this kind of thing.

The harvest of this trip was quite good.

A recipe for Beorn's special baked honey cakes that adds even more satiety than a roast steak, and a large beehive.

There should naturally be a lot of bees living in the beehive, but Levi only took two away before leaving.

Two are enough.

The rest is up to the magical reproduction system.

Before leaving, Beorn looked at Levi and almost said something several times, but he stopped himself every time.

"What's wrong?"

Levi asked the leader of the skin-changers.

Beorn looked at the broad road that ran through the forest and two river valleys and finally led into the Misty Mountains. He thought about the wonders in Levi's territory and, most importantly, the rumors about his recruitment of subjects. A rare expression of hesitation appeared on his rough and resolute face.

"No, sorry, nothing."

Beorn sighed and said, "Please give me some time to think about it."

"consider?"

Levi stared at Beorn for a few seconds, but couldn't tell what he was thinking about.

"Well, whatever it is, just think about it. If you want to talk about it, just say it. If you don't want to talk about it, I have no intention of prying into it."

"There's still plenty of time anyway."
