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 was also a little confused.
"I didn't expect that just a small battle would alarm the lords of the free cities, the king of birds, and the wizard to come and check."
"I'm really flattered."
"We happened to discuss something in the Eagle's Nest."
Gandalf stood up and explained: "This was also beyond our expectations. The Eagle King first discovered the movement here, and then Levi couldn't wait to come over and left us far behind."
His tone was quite helpless.
"I think these Orcs now know that the new tribes in the Anduin Valley are not easy to mess with."
The ground was full of evidence of this statement.
Gandalf used his cane to dig the Orc corpses on the ground twice and moved them aside to make way.
The Beorn tribe has restored peace.
The residents dealt with the bodies of the orcs and the wargs, while Beorn moved a table to the hall made of pure wood - in the yard next to it.
After all, the Eagle King was there too, and they couldn't just go into the house and leave him outside.
Levi waved his hand and said, "No need to entertain us too much. We don't have anything to do. We just helped out when we saw him."
"Your help to us is more than just 'helpful' in my opinion."
Beorn looked at the huge sky road whose outline could be vaguely seen and said, "Through that road, a lot of wealth has flowed into us. This is real and unquestionable help to us."
"Let's continue the topic before the war. If there is any need, we are happy to do something."
"Nothing special, you have done everything you can."
Thinking about the information and reports he saw in the Mayor's Office of Long Lake Town a few days ago, Levi said, "And you have 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 the Black Forest to the Misty Mountains.
This is beneficial to both parties.
"By the way, the beehive, and the giant bees inside, I want to take some back to raise myself."
Speaking of the bees raised by Beorn, they are also quite magical.
First of all, they are huge, almost half a fist, and they are relatively gentle and don't sting people.
And they look cute from the outside, yellow, round, flapping their wings and flying in the air a bit like... Bombur.
"Okay, this is what we have discussed long ago."
"Where do you plan to raise them, I will send them to you."
Beorn said: "I want to remind you that the living habits of this kind of bees may be slightly different from other species. I can tell you about these differences and precautions bit by bit."
"Don't worry about this. I have some special methods."
Seeing Levi so confident, Beorn could only nod and put off the idea of teaching him.
Maybe he does have some special methods, just like Radagast the Brown Robe, the wizard who loves nature and animals of all sizes can communicate with animals, whether they are ferocious or gentle animals, they all get along well with the wizard.
Except for the warg.
"Well, I believe you can handle it. It seems that the beekeeping manual I wrote recently will not be useful."
Beorn said regretfully: "That may be one of the few things I can surpass you. It's a pity that I can't give you a few lessons."
Lessons?
Levi felt a chill on his back, and he quickly changed the subject and said: "I think it's getting late, it's time to eat!"
Beorn looked at the sun setting in the distant sky and tactfully ended the topic.
"Indeed."
A moment later, the fire rose in the courtyard.
The Eagle King landed nearby, constantly swallowing the fresh meat that Levi brought specially, and eating quite happily.
These always fresh and clean steaks, not to mention the Eagle King, even Gandalf sometimes has an urge to try them when he sees them.
But Levi never gave them to him.
"If you think your teeth are good enough, you can try it."
Bringing a basket of Beorn's special honey cakes over, and putting some wild fruits, vegetables and dairy products on the table, Levi began to show off his cooking skills.
Snap.
Soon, a plate of roasted meat was placed in front of Gandalf, with a piece of raw beef on the edge of the plate.
Looking at the tempting bright red color and the jade-like eye-catching lines, Gandalf finally couldn't help it. He tentatively forked the small piece of raw meat and put it in his mouth to chew.
Gulp.
"It doesn't taste good, but it can't be said to be unpalatable." Gandalf gave such an evaluation.
"In some urgent moments in the past when there was really no time to roast the meat, sometimes I would eat it raw." Levi thought about his experience of opening up new archives when he was a novice.
"Except chicken."
There is a 30% chance of getting hunger debuff when eating this thing raw, which is not worth the loss.
"I can't imagine what it would be like if you didn't even have time to cook."
Of course, it would be when you forgot to bring food and were being chased while hungry.
If you don't eat, you won't be able to run.
"Then don't think about it."
"Okay, then I won't explore it anymore and just leave it in your memory."
After tasting the raw meat and satisfying his curiosity, Gandalf turned his attention to the other food on the table.
The vegetable leaf that Beorn gnawed seemed to be quite delicious.
So he took a taste.
This mouthful made old Gandalf silent for several seconds.
‘Why do I have to compete with someone who only eats raw meat and someone who only eats vegetarian food? ’
Despite this, the honey-containing cake made by Beorn himself is still quite good, almost equivalent to a weakened version of Rambas. One piece can increase the satiety level a lot, and it is also delicious.
Levi took a taste and was surprised.
This is really good, and is much more suitable as travel rations than jerky or barbecue.
On the other side, Beorn was keenly aware of Levi's emotional changes after tasting the cake. He said:
"This cake is a secret of our (skin-changer) family, but you are an exception. If you are willing to promise me not to spread it around, I can tell you how to make it."
"With great pleasure."
Levi readily accepted it. Although the recipe was actually unlocked after coming into contact with the baking oven and cakes in Beorn's house, he didn't mind hearing more about this kind of thing.
The harvest from this trip was quite good.
A recipe for Beorn's signature baked honey cake that adds more satiety than a kebab steak, and a large beehive.
There should naturally be many bees living in the beehive, but Levi only took two with him before leaving.
Two are enough.
The rest just needs to be left to the magical reproduction system.
Before leaving, Beorn looked at Levi and almost said something several times, but every time he stopped abruptly at the end.
"What's wrong?"
Levi asked the skin-changing leader.
Beorn looked at the broad road that traversed the forest and two river valleys, and finally inserted into the misty mountains. He thought about the magic in Levi's territory, and most importantly, the rumors about his recruitment of people. He was rugged and persevering. There was a rare expression of hesitation on his face.
"No, sorry, it's nothing."
Beorn sighed and said, "Please give me some time to think about it."
"consider?"
Levi stared at Beorn for a few seconds, but he really couldn't tell what he was thinking about.
"Okay, no matter what it is, just think about it and say whatever you want. I don't want to pry if you don't want to."
"There's still a lot of time anyway."
