Half of Batu''s body was dyed red with blood. His hand was drooping, and his Tomahawk fell from his hand. Before landing, he was caught by the count. The falconer gazed at the body of his first horse for a moment, and then took out a knife from his arms. The move surprised the rest of the team. Lothar thought he was going to harm himself for the first time, but that didn''t happen. Batu was half kneeling on the ground, reciting something to the body of the mount. Then he knelt down three times with his hands raised high. Then he cut the skin of the horse with a knife, revealing the scarlet flesh and blood below.
"In grassland tradition, if a horse dies in battle, its owner will eat some of its flesh and blood to show that he will coexist with it." KAILAS had experience of living on the grassland and understood the meaning behind what the hunter was doing now. Therefore, this time, his tone was rarely joking. "If the situation permits, they will use the bones or leather of horses to make amulet like ornaments. The horses will protect their owners, both before and after death. Boy, if you don''t mind, you can have a piece of my meat
This is not a provocation. It is the privilege of our closest comrades in arms. At the same time, it also means responsibility. If you eat the flesh and blood of a war horse, you have to treat its master like a horse. The cat goblin understood this, and he held out his furry hand. A piece of raw horse meat quickly put in his hand, and he did not hesitate to eat it, "good taste, is a good horse."
It doesn''t matter what the taste of fresh horse meat is, but in the current environment, I''m afraid there is no half taste in the mouth of delicacies, and the bloody meat will not taste delicious. However, some people just like this kind of meat. "Give me a piece of it. After running all day, I still have the dough in my stomach in the morning. It''s always good to have some fresh meat."
Lothar''s proposal came from his observation of things. Unlike cheese, the count was more sensitive to the human heart. He could perceive that it was not blasphemous to ask batusso for the meat of his horse. This can be seen from Batu''s reaction to cat goblins. Moreover, the count is not unable to understand the grassland people''s ideas. Eating is always the simplest and most direct way to integrate with a thing; eating and being eaten, the mutual phagocytosis and transformation between creatures contain something that elves often mention. The count could not say it clearly, but he could feel it.
The cat goblin and the count acted like a signal, and soon ATA came and stroked Batu''s back and took a piece of horse meat from his hand. Cheese didn''t look here. His attention seemed to be focused on alayer in the distance, until the falconer brought the pieces of meat from the knife to him. "It will protect us. In its way. "
"I have no doubt about it." The mage looked at Batu, showed a mysterious smile, and then reached for the meat and sent it to the entrance. The smell of blood and strong animal smell can hardly be tasted for the first time, but it is surprisingly not to make people feel nauseous, because under the taste of incompatibility, anyone who eats meat slices can more clearly feel the life contained in it.
"Well, the farewell ceremony is over. Now, if we don''t want more lives to disappear today, it''s better to do something with what we have. " Maybe it was the taste of his mouth that inspired cheese. The mage suddenly turned his head and strode forward. "Batu, as a casting material, I need the body of your mount. Would you mind?"
"It has become one with me. Take the rest." The hunter dried the tears on his cheek and his voice became firm again.
The mage nodded and said nothing more. His eyes towards the corpse of the war horse had become the eyes that a caster should have. There was no emotion, no hesitation, only calculation and planning. The corpse is transformed into material in his eyes, flesh, leather and bones can be used. A good caster will not waste his material. Especially the body that just died, it can be called a luxury gift, even the apprentice who does not know how to use materials can find what he wants from a corpse. Grey robe is no longer an apprentice. He can do better than most people who claim to be masters.
"Help me separate the meat from the skin. Horse skin is so special that it''s easy to identify. Peel off the skin alone, the meat cut into about seven pounds of meat, just like human muscle, Lothar, this is your specialty. Bones and blood that can be collected are also collected. KAILAS does it. His hands are very skillful. We can use these things later. In addition, I need a few hairs from you. I''ll use them all at once, I promise. ATA, you and Batu go to the market to find something to dig a hole for me. Move fast. I don''t want us to stay in a daze before that thing arrives The mage with attention always has inexplicable enthusiasm.
"I never doubt your ability," Lothar said to the cheese as he sliced the horse with a dagger. He didn''t like the butcher''s work. And that''s mainly because he did have this career in lost heart bay for a while. As a knight, it''s a terrible past. Of course, at that time, he was in order to earn more money for his pregnant wife. He would not regret it, but was taken out by his friends, which was another matter. The count, familiar with the texture of the muscle, sliced open the large tendon and stood up. "But I don''t think we can stop that thing with these."Cheese licked his finger and stretched it into the air to feel the flow of air, which was helpful for his later casting. After hearing Lothar''s words, he said casually, "well, it depends on your point of view. In the face of giants, the best solution is never to confront him head-on. It is the best choice to find a chance to cut off his Achilles muscle. And what''s more, you think it''s too little flesh and blood to work because you saw the whole picture from the beginning. And what I''m going to do is to fish with these flesh and blood. A little bit of bait can catch big fish
The count turned his mouth. He was glad that the mage was optimistic about the situation and that he could not understand what he was saying. That''s a good thing, because Lothar knows that if he can understand cheese''s plans, he''ll realize where the crazy, unstable elements in those plans are, and then the rigor of his style will lead him to meaningless anxiety.
"The meat is cut." A moment later, Lothar finished his task.
"Great, great. Pile them up here, inside the circle. Then, we can start. " The grey robe drew a circle with a diameter of two meters on the ground with a knife. It is not easy to leave such a regular mark on the hard ground without using any tools.
