After killing the Iron-Winged Vulture, Su Rui asked the little demon to pick up the scattered iron feathers one by one and put them into his small cloth bag. The Iron-Winged Vulture didn't have any decent magic tools, and most of its years of accumulation had been used in the iron feathers.
Su Rui thought that when he transformed into an iron-winged vulture in the future, he would inevitably need the iron feathers, so he had to collect them. However, he had to keep them for now and slowly refine them when he was alone. Otherwise, if the other little demons saw his transformation, they would be scared to death!
Afterwards, he asked his little demons to take the vulture's body down to clean it, and told them to give him a vulture's wing after they were done cleaning it, which he would roast and eat himself, and the rest would be left for the little demons as a snack, and they could eat it however they liked.
Monsters are just like humans, sometimes even more selfish. So when Su Rui convicted Iron-Winged Vulture of murder, the incident passed without a ripple. Some of the monsters even shed tears of joy when they learned vulture meat would be added to their meals.
Su Rui was frustrated by the goblins' unrefined eating habits. When he asked them to bring him a wing, they instead brought him the entire, feathered wing. Su Rui had to become the chef again, sending his goblins to boil water and pluck the vulture's wing. Then, he marinated the shed wing with fruit juice and wild ginseng juice. Since the mountains were short of oil, salt, sauce, and vinegar, Su Rui felt the flavor wasn't good enough, so he mobilized his goblins to scour the mountains for honey.
Fortunately, his Beifeng Mountain's sphere of influence was large enough, and soon a patrol team came back with a few honey nests.
Looking at the bear leader whose head was covered with lumps from being stared at by bees, Su Rui was in a good mood.
"Commander Xiong, I'm very happy that you were able to find honey for me in such a short time. I've decided to give you a reward. What would you like?"
In the wild and desolate Beifeng Mountain, honey is a rare treasure. Not only can it be used as a seasoning for barbecue, but it can also be used to brew beverages, enriching the beverage selection on Beifeng Mountain, which is mostly made up of low-quality wine and stream water.
More importantly, sweet things can keep the monster in a good mood!
"My king, I, the little bear, want a set of armor that can withstand beatings!" The bear leader happily made the request.
"No problem, take this king's warrant and go to the warehouse to choose one!"
Atop North Wind Mountain lies a warehouse containing numerous looted weapons, including two suits of armor. However, the warehouse contains no rare artifacts or magical treasures, so King Jinjiao doesn't value it highly. Su Rui had already gained information about the warehouse from King Jinjiao's spirit, but he wasn't interested.
After sending away the bear leader, Su Rui picked up the pickled vulture wings and began to roast them on a campfire fueled by pine branches. When they were almost done, he brushed them with a layer of honey and continued to roast them.
During this process, Su Rui couldn't help but pick up a small piece of honeycomb and put it into his mouth and started chewing.
The sweet taste in his mouth made him feel very good.
In order to add some vegetarian food to the barbecue, Su Rui buried a piece of Polygonatum sibiricum as big as his arm, which was offered by a little demon, under the campfire with its skin intact.
Because the vulture's wings were so big, Su Rui took half an hour to roast them until both sides were golden brown and emitted a unique fragrance.
Su Rui asked the little demon to bring a bowl of clean stream water, mixed it with honey and some sour fruits, and then began to gnaw on the vulture's wings.
After taking a bite of meat and a sip of drink, Su Rui was suddenly moved to tears.
This tasted very similar to the grilled chicken wings with lemon and honey he'd enjoyed as a midnight snack before his time travel. Su Rui felt he could work harder to make life a little more comfortable for the Demon King of Beifeng Mountain.
After eating and drinking his fill, he instructed the little demons to take the remaining honey and make wild fruit honey water for everyone. Then he took a few of the little demons and began to patrol his sphere of influence.
Beifeng Mountain's elevation is estimated to be 500 to 600 meters, a significant drop from the surrounding peaks, which often reach a thousand meters. It covers an area of ​​approximately 20 to 30 miles. Several other nearby mountains, below the mountainside, are also within the Golden Horn King's sphere of influence, though considered peripheral. For example, the mountain where Su Rui encountered the deer demon was located just outside Beifeng Mountain. Since it's outside the mountain, patrols are naturally less frequent, and even the demons on patrol are mostly those who haven't yet reached the transformation stage.
There are a total of thirty-six patrol teams in Beifeng Mountain, of which eighteen are inside the mountain. Each team has five little demons, and they basically have a guard every five steps and a demon every ten steps, which is very tight. There are also eighteen teams outside the mountain, but each team has two little demons, and they only patrol along fixed routes, which is not very tight. That's why Su Rui was able to escape easily without being discovered after killing the patrol team before.
Su Rui picked a mountain road at random, but when he heard that there was a nest of fox demons in his territory that were about to transform, he asked the demons beside him to lead the way to the nest of the fox demons that were about to transform.
In a simple cave at the foot of Beifeng Mountain, a gray-haired female fox demon who still retained fox ears and a pair of sharp claws was guiding her two daughters and one son to transform.
The appearance of the three little gray foxes who received guidance has changed. They are gradually moving away from the fox form and developing towards human form.
When Su Rui entered, she saw three slender figures with fox heads and human bodies. The three foxes were still in the process of transformation, so they were completely naked. Two of the female fox demons had transformed into young girls, with graceful and well-proportioned figures. Although Su Rui had experienced the "hard drive" test many times before crossing over, the sight still made her nose bleed.
Even though these little fox demons had never been to the human world, their physical changes perfectly matched the aesthetics of a modern person like Su Rui. However, perhaps because they had never seen the world, or were forced to make a living, they had actually retained their sharp claws.
When the little foxes saw Su Rui coming, they hurriedly bowed and saluted him.
Su Rui stopped their behavior and asked the female fox to take out some animal skins to cover the three naked wild fox demons, allowing them to continue the transformation process.
Afterwards, the hair on their heads gradually fell off, and they changed into the appearance of boys and girls, except for their ears and teeth.
Upon seeing this, Su Rui immediately issued a royal decree, ordering them to change their ears, teeth, and claws completely to resemble those of humans.
Upon hearing Su Rui's command, the female fox demon dared not speak, but became deeply concerned. According to the female fox, surviving in the mountains without retaining sharp hearing, fangs capable of shredding enemies, and claws capable of being used as weapons would be difficult.
Su Rui ignored the change in the female fox demon's expression. After seeing the three little fox demons transform into handsome human boys according to his command, he issued another order: "From tomorrow on, the three of you will serve as my servants and obey my orders under the throne!"
Upon hearing this, the female fox demon smiled happily and signaled the three little fox demons to thank the king.
The three little fox demons knew that this meant their status in Beifeng Mountain would soar, and they would become the demons beside the king. They immediately knelt down and thanked Su Rui with joy: "Thank you for your mercy, king. We little demons obey your orders!"
Su Rui didn't think much about it. He just wanted to use these three little fox demons as examples to completely change the aesthetic of the transformation of the demons in Beifeng Mountain, and not always create those weird images that are neither human nor demon.
