Dinner was a small banquet served outside.
There are a lot of people.
Su Ziyu was placed next to the tree elf queen, Avina. Because of what happened at the beginning, many people noticed him and he could feel many curious gazes.
How about the food?
The staple food on the table was actually a pile of fruits and vegetables. Some fruits were placed in the center. They smelled quite fragrant, but Su Ziyu didn't have much appetite. He actually still wanted to eat some meat.
The tree spirits actually like these foods very much. They usually eat mainly vegetarian food, with meat being only a small part of their diet.
Druids can eat either meat or vegetables, but they love tobacco very much, and the place over there is filled with smoke.
He had smelled this kind of tobacco before. It had a slightly special aroma. It was said that it was only grown by halflings and dwarves. Witchers and sorceresses would occasionally smoke it. The latter mostly used incense with a similar aroma. It was said that it could help concentrate and clear the mind.
His eyes swept across and soon fell on the islanders over there.
The druid was very thoughtful. The islanders prepared some seafood, mainly fish and shrimp. He also saw two huge crabs, which he estimated to weigh about 30 kilograms.
"Excuse me for a moment." Su Ziyu stood up and said.
Then, regardless of the rather surprised looks of the tree spirits, he sat directly in front of the weather-beaten-looking islanders. He reached out and tore off a long and thick crab leg, crushed it with his fingers and took out the snow-white crab meat inside.
"Cheers to you, sir!" said a middle-aged man with a beard and pigtails, raising his glass.
Many people in this world do not eat crabs. Only people in coastal areas eat these ugly creatures. The people of the Stark Islands did not expect that Suzi would be so adept at eating crabs.
In the Middle Ages, customs and habits were very powerful, and people in many areas would rather throw away animal organs than eat them.
"Cheers to the sea." Su Ziyu raised his glass and smiled.
His behavior quickly won the favor of the Starkor people, who enthusiastically invited him to try some fish. The taste was a little fishy, but the taste was still very good. Su Ziyu quickly started chatting with these rough people, and then the conversation turned to customs and religious beliefs.
Seeing that Su Ziyu was very interested in these, the middle-aged islander in front of him began to describe in detail the various religious beliefs in the coastal areas.
Su Ziyu didn't ask much about mainstream beliefs. He only asked about those beliefs that were about to disappear and were only circulated in a few areas, including those that didn't seem to be real gods at first glance, but monsters worshipped by coastal residents.
Seeing that Su Ziyu was listening so seriously and with great interest, these people also talked about a lot of rumored bloody sacrifices.
After a dinner party.
Su Ziyu became closer to these islanders and also collected a lot of information that was very important to him.
In the evening.
Su Ziyu, Avina, Vera and others went to meet the three druid elders separately. They discussed for nearly two hours before ending this private meeting. Some things are not suitable for too many people to know. If they are not controlled well, it may cause panic to spread.
"Would you like to come over to my place and sit for a while?" The tree elf queen, Avina, asked with a smile, gazing at Su Ziyu with her beautiful silver eyes.
"No." Su Ziyu shook her head and refused: "I still have a lot of things to do tomorrow."
The dryad queen is too curious.
Plus, tree spirits obviously all have some peculiar abilities, the most famous of which is the charm spell. He was very afraid that he would accidentally fall into their trap and say something he shouldn't.
Don’t be fooled by the beauty and purity of the tree elves; each one seems to be the spiritual embodiment of nature.
But in Su Ziyu's eyes, their behavior is actually similar to that of the female night demons, except that the female night demons need the male's vitality, while the tree spirits only need the male's essence.
Do you think they will date you?
You're overthinking it. In the past, tree spirits would use their beauty to seduce their offspring. If they couldn't seduce their offspring, they would use a charm spell. When they were done, they would just walk away. What happened next had nothing to do with you.
Their camp tends to be kind, but their behavior is completely based on the principles of a matriarchal society.
These tree spirits have no respect for men, they only respect the strong.
Inside the hotel.
The old dwarf dragged Su Ziyu to play a game of Gwent again, hoping to win back his collector's edition cards, and then he lost his meteorite dagger.
Su Ziyu felt that he would become rich soon.
He asked the old dwarf for paper and pen, and immediately wrote down in Chinese what he had discussed with the Starkor people about customs and religion. He did not have the intelligence enhancement route, and did not have the ability to memorize everything, so he could only write it down as soon as possible and keep it.
Su Ziyu wrote until almost the early morning, filling up a whole page with analytical notes next to them, mainly about the possibility that these beliefs still exist.
He has not given up his divinity value yet.
The beliefs of the coastal residents of the northern continent are the most chaotic, and sometimes sea monsters become the objects of their sacrifices.
What if this information is useful?
No words were spoken that night.
“Fancy!”
"I can knock him down with just one hammer!" The old dwarf muttered softly while sitting on the chair, with a look of disdain on his face.
The fighting style of the elves is rather gorgeous, but not flashy. It just looks more handsome and beautiful.
Vera's fighting style is somewhat similar, perhaps due to her having received instruction from the elves.
Su Ziyu mainly masters the White Crow sword technique, and his fighting style is now more inclined towards that of a demon hunter, focusing on absolute practicality. It doesn't matter whether he is handsome or not, what matters is being able to survive when facing monsters.
Seriously.
Without the use of bows and arrows, the Mego in front of him was far inferior to any old witcher.
“Would you like to give it a try?” The aloof elven ranger also saw Su Ziyu’s figure. His eyes lit up slightly and he took the initiative to say, “I’m curious whether the demon hunter is as powerful as the legend says!”
There is a rumor in the tavern that almost no one can defeat a demon hunter in a one-on-one situation.
Vera next to her looked surprised, but also very curious and wanted to see it for herself.
"Okay." Su Ziyu thought for a while and said.
He walked directly in front of Megau, without drawing his sword, but looked at him calmly and said, "Let's get started."
Su Ziyu's attitude made the arrogant elf ranger feel a little despised. He looked a little annoyed and instantly swung out the slender elf sword and stabbed it straight into Su Ziyu's chest.
clang!
With a crisp sound, the elf sword in Mei Gao's hand was knocked away.
Su Ziyu didn't even draw his sword, but used the scabbard to knock the opponent's weapon away, and shook his head slightly, saying, "It's flashy but not practical."
