Chapter 45 Hoffman's Will!

Chapter 45 Hoffman's Will!

The swarm was rapidly making its way back, with Carlos in hot pursuit, and it was hard to imagine that just a few seconds ago, the two had been reversed, like in a song: that way it's not that I don't understand, it's that the world is changing fast!

  At that moment Hoffman was holding the hive in his hand and giggling, his tongue carefully licking the honey from his hand, not realizing the impending danger!

  Carlos's side was rushing back without stopping, he didn't look at the road when he was running before, but now thanks to the swarm of bees, otherwise Carlos wouldn't be able to find his way back at all!

  After running after the swarm for a while, Carlos finally saw Hoffman sitting on the ground, his back was to Carlos, and Carlos didn't know what he was doing, he only saw the swarm swooping towards Hoffman, who didn't know what he was doing and seemed to be oblivious!

  "What's this idiot doing?

  Why isn't there any reaction at all!"

  Carlos wanted to yell at him, but on second thought it didn't seem like yelling would do anything but make Hoffman turn around, so Carlos simply stopped yelling and just turned on his light energy drive, instantly overtaking the swarm, and in the blink of an eye Carlos was standing behind Hoffman!

  That's when Carlos got a good look at what Hoffman was doing, the guy was hugging the hive, eating honey all over his mouth and dripping it onto his chest a lot!

  "Good!

  I've been running around so hard, and here you are eating first!"

  Carlos was instantly furious, but couldn't bear to take it out on Hoffman, so the swarm of bees behind him became the object of Carlos' anger!

  "Bursting flames!"

  Dozens of bursts of flame were fired out one after another, continuously bombarding the hive swarms, and piece after piece of bees turned into charred black dots falling down, quickly accumulating a layer on the ground!

  Carlos burned out the pursuing bees, and Hoffman reacted then, cantering back to look at Carlos in front of him he didn't have much of a reaction, but at the sight of the burnt little black dots on the ground, Hoffman suddenly jumped!

  "Are these, are these the same bees that were just in this hive?

  Why did you burn them all!"

  Hoffman seems very distraught.

  "You fool, all you do is eat, if I hadn't saved you, you would have been stung to death by this swarm of bees by now!

  And have time to worry about them?"

  Carlos said, pointing to the black spot on the ground.

  "Without bees, then this hive won't produce any more honey!"

  Hoffman said heartily.

  "Can't you do without them?

  I don't believe this is the only swarm of bees in this forest... just find other bees to make honey!"

  Carlos didn't think anything of it.

  "Bees never make honey only in the nests they build!"

  Hoffman said.

  This time it was Carlos's turn to be dumbfounded, together with a half a day's trouble, just to get a disposable thing, was still interested in the potential value of the hive, Carlos decided to strengthen the hive, so look, pay and return does not seem to be proportional to ah!

  This operation is a bit of a small loss!

  "Then this can't be helped, I can't just stand by and watch you get stung!"

  Carlos said blandly, his flat mood sort of accepting that this operation was not as good as it could have been.

  "Forget it then, just come in next time and look for other hives."

  Said Hoffman as he reached down and dipped some more honey from the hive into his mouth.

  "And eat!

  It's almost all gone for you!"

  Carlos snatched the hive from Hoffman's arms!

  "I ate just a little bit, there's a lot more in there," Hoffman said in feeble defense.

  "Take the rest back for everyone!

  You're not allowed to eat any more until we get back!"

  Carlos said with a straight face.

  "Now it's time to find some magical beasts, hurry up and fight a few of them, then we'll go back, Hylia and Avril should have already finished picking the fruit and gone back, getting this honey delayed a lot of work!

  Now get a grip!"

  Carlos said.

  "Is it true that I'll get to eat honey when we get back?"

  Hoffman was full of thoughts about eating honey.

  "When we get back it's for everyone and we'll see how much we give you then!"

  Carlos said.

  As soon as Hoffman heard this, he immediately came into the spirit, and in order to go back as early as possible, Hoffman went to hunt the magical beasts very vigorously!

  Within a few moments, Hoffman returned dragging two boars in one hand, their tails in one hand and their tusks in the other, constantly panting, tired but combative!

  "These . Is that enough?"

You could be reading stolen content. Head to the original site for the genuine story.

  Hoffman asked under his breath.

  "Sure enough, the most effective way to inspire a foodie to fight is the temptation of food!"

  Carlos inwardly sighed, at this time, Hoffman's appearance is indeed more raw, such willpower, with the previous naive appearance of a different person.

  "Uh, you Bell Bears are big eaters, these may not be quite enough, a little more should be enough, two more, or three . Should be just fine."

  Carlos hadn't even finished his sentence before he said two or three before Hoffman whipped his head back into the woods!

  A little while later, Hoffman came back again dragging two pale antler wood deer, and a horned horse, this time Hoffman was also wounded, his arm was cut by the sharp antlers of a small cut, but Hoffman seemed to be oblivious to it, did not care at all.

  "Now that's enough!"

  Hoffman is breathing more heavily than last time.

  "That's enough, that's enough, I'll help you drag these three, you go drag those four boars on, we can head back now, see how hard you've been working, now let's reward you with a mouthful of honey first!"

  With that Carlos brought the hive up to Hoffman.

  Hoffman's hand trembled as he reached into the hive, dipped it gently and lifted it up, then licked the honey from his hand with an enraptured look.

  The trembling now wasn't from excitement, but from being a little off his feet, his muscles contracting and shaking uncontrollably, but now, looking at Hoffman in this enraptured and contented state, he should feel it was quite worth it.

  Carlos   then held the hive in his left hand and took the two deer and a horse from Hoffman's hand in his right hand, with Carlos dragging the tails of the three magical beasts in one hand and Hoffman dragging the four boars, the two of them walking back together along the markings that Carlos had made all the way back earlier.

  It was soon well out of the great forests of the Sunset Mountains, the sun was still blinding, and Carlos and Hoffman were slowly dragging their prey towards the front, their shadows not dragging very long, but coming out of a few late-morning vicissitudes of feeling.

  On the other side, Shelia and Avril had been waiting for a long time.

  "What do you mean Carlos and Hoffman aren't back yet, it's been so long, they can't be in any danger!"

  Shelia said worriedly.

  "Miss Hylia, don't worry about it, you don't know the damage that Lord Carlos's Sacrificial Battle Hymn can do to the magical beasts, how could it be in danger, maybe it's just that there's too much prey so it's coming back slower, don't worry about it!"

  Avril said soothingly.

"Their prey must be large and heavy, it's only natural that they can't come back as fast as they went ah."

  Avril said.

  "The Sunset Mountain Range is very dangerous, there are so many high level magical beasts in there, and with Carlos and Hoffman's strength, I'm worried that they'll run into some kind of danger!"

  Shelia said anxiously.

  "They must be looking for prey only on the outskirts of the Sunset Mountain Range, this Lord Priest of ours is always cautious and would never put himself in danger, so don't worry and stop thinking blindly!"

  Avril continued.

  "There is this worrying effort, it is better to check these fruits we picked, we picked so many, there are some I don't recognize.

  These are all varieties I haven't eaten before. Are they North Plains specialties?

  Or is it unique to the vicinity of the Sunset Mountains?"

  Said Avril as she picked up two bright red fruits from the pile.

  The fruit was quite large, Avril could only pick up one in one hand, and there were many more in the pile like this one.

  "This is a red guava, ah, in the center of the growth is relatively small, the number is really not too much, have a banquet used to welcome the guests of the fruit is mostly this red guava, the flavor is very sweet!"

  Shelia said.

  "What about this?"

  Avril said as she picked up another dark purple fruit.

  This fruit is relatively small, Ai Wei Er two fingers can pinch it up, the fruit is a round granular ball, Ai Wei Er do not dare to use too much force, for fear that the fruit to clip broken.

  "This is the purple branch sour plum, before meals drink with it can be squeezed out of the juice will make people become appetite oh!"

  Shelia said as if she were counting.

  "I've never had any of these, and it's awesome that you know about them all, Shelia."

  Avril said admiringly.

  "It's just that I've been in contact with them before, it's nothing."

  In response to Avril's compliments, Hylia said with some embarrassment.

  "And those, this one is yellow straw peach, that one is cranberry blueberry, and that one..." Hylia's interest gradually thickens, and with some enthusiasm for fruit categorization, she finally stops frowning.

  By diverting Hylia's attention so deliberately, Avril was trying to stabilize Hylia's anxious mood.

  "Phew the mood is finally a bit more normal, Carlos, Hoffman you two come back soon, if you don't come back, when Miss Hylia's interest in the fruits disappears, she will really go to the Sunset Mountain Range to look for you guys, I won't be able to stop you at that time!

  Blessed be the God of War!

  Come back here, you two!"

  Avril prayed in her heart.

  Perhaps the almighty God of War had heard Avril's prayers, and Carlos and Hoffman returned soon after, dragging the Wraith's body behind them, exhausted, and touching the door with a very heavy sound.

  "We're back and look what we brought back!" Carlos shouted.

  As soon as Shelia heard Carlos's voice, she put down the various fruits in her hands, and came to the gate in a trot, and after seeing Carlos, she excitedly ran over,opened her hands, and then took the huge hive from Carlos's arms. "Uh, I thought." Carlos was a bit embarrassed and touched his nose with his free hand.

  "What did you think?"

  Shelia said with a delicate smile, winking those big soulful eyes at Carlos.

  "Nothing, that honey is very sweet, bring it to everyone to taste!"

  Carlos said.

  Avril also followed out and saw this scene and just pursed her lips and smiled, not saying much.

  The group laid out all the available food, four boars, two deer, a horned horse, and a bunch of fruits that Carlos didn't recognize, those were all the rations for now, Carlos looked at these and fell into a deep thought.

  "I'm really afraid this won't be enough for everyone for one meal!"

  Carlos thought so.

  This may seem like a lot, and if Carlos was alone it should be enough for ten days and half a month, but the population is so large now.

  Especially the dozens of Bell Bear warriors, the four wild boars in front of them is not enough to look at, and just tasted the honey they all eyes glowing, the belly of the gluttony has been hooked up!

  Those Bell Bears could have fought over that hive if Hoffman hadn't knocked it out of the park!

  Hoffman himself didn't play favorites and handed that hive directly to Shelia's hands, and it still surprised Carlos that Hoffman, the foodie, had done such a thing.

  Honey first put aside, now for how to deal with these food, Carlos still feel confused about the road ahead, can only take a step to see a step, Carlos first own hands to open up the few magical beasts of the fur are peeled off.

  Carlos controlled the wind blade of the air-breaking chopping attack to shrink and haunt his hand, skinning became easy, and the ones that came off were intact, Carlos put away all of these skinned furs carefully, and through the sleep last night, Carlos felt that it was still necessary to have a bed to be able to do so!

  Before, Carlos used to sleep in a turtle shell, now that he became an orc form, the turtle shell turned into scales attached to his back, Carlos felt uncomfortable sleeping on the ground yesterday, making a bed was imperative, and these furs were the key material.

  Putting the fur away, Carlos used it again to start working on the meat, still using the Breaking Chop for the cuts, Carlos used the Thorn Vineman again for the grill and skewer sticks!

  Carlos used wood elemental energy to specifically coalesce those thorn spines to as long as his arm and as thick as his finger, such a size was more attached to the level of cutlery of the Bell Bear Clan, the same style that Carlos also used.

  As for the Robert Rabbit Clan and Shelia, they ate them with normal sized thorn thorns, which were kind of like toothpicks, and Carlos made it a point to cut the meat into small pieces for them to stick them in.

  Carlos had raised several fires, and Vineman, whose thorns had been pulled out, was used as a rope to hold the branch grills, which were at just the right height so that they wouldn't be burned by the flames, but also so that the temperature could be conveyed up, and they would just cook a little slower.

  As she waited for the roast, Shelia began to work out how to distribute the sweet honey, and after some thought, Shelia decided to follow the style of the Mythic Rat People.

  Use honey to coat the fruit, honey plus different fruits, some sweet on sweet, some sweet and sour crisp, and this distribution since it is also convenient to divide the fruit on the line.

  Shelia took out all the fruits and took them out again after they had been submerged in the honey, so that the exterior of all the fruits were coated with a layer of honey that adhered to the fruits afterwards.

  The honey naturally solidified on the exterior of the fruit to form a yellowish transparent film, Carlos looked like the ice candy gourd from that world in his previous life, and then that skewer would be almost exactly the same!
