Chapter 570 Chapter 532: Bloodfeeding

Kakarot has become a rising star in the imperial capital. As the final winner of the martial arts tournament, he received a bonus of 100,000 gold coins and the title of an eighth-level knight—although with his strength, his real strength was only level seven.But after all, as the head of Roland's Sword Knights, the symbol of revitalizing the Knights Association, the seventh level seems too shabby. Therefore, Mr. President Delong gave him an eighth-level title with a swipe of his pen. Moreover, Kakarot is very young, handsome, powerful, and popular, so he has naturally become a very popular figure in the aristocratic circle of the imperial capital. Good friendship.

The Knights of Roland's Sword currently have fifty members—of course, after the celebration in the square that day, Elle quietly withdrew from the Knights, but left quietly.Therefore, after seeking Du Wei's opinion, the Knights added a new member to replace Ai Lu's position. Malone!The guy with strong strength who once fought against the commander of the Holy Knights Randall in the arena, a barbarian warrior who once killed a pack of black bears with his bare hands, was absorbed into the knights. By the way, according to Du Wei's private judgment, he even felt that Ma Long might be one of the most powerful warriors in this knight order... It's just that he was unlucky, and he met that man early in the competition. Grand Knight Commander of the Holy Knights.

But if it is more real strength, I am afraid that Kakarot may not necessarily be able to defeat Malone in a real fight. In addition, Du Wei is very interested in this Malone, because this guy's physical strength is too strong. Among the people Du Wei has met, only the lion-like guy named Rhine adopted by Archbishop Maximus can comparable to. In any case, the Continental Knights Association, relying on this martial arts tournament, has become famous. More importantly, this martial arts tournament has triggered a trend of martial arts in the empire, whether it is to follow the trend or join in the fun.In short, even the young nobles in the imperial capital are now popular in the costumes of samurai to show their faces.The luxurious aristocratic dresses that were popular in the past were abandoned and replaced by various samurai clothes.

More importantly, the Cavaliers Association has earned enough funds by relying on this game.The Duke of Tulip generously donated a hundred high-quality war horses, which were given to the Knights of Roland's Sword as mounts for the knights. ... When Du Wei returned home from the north after finishing his official duties, he was told that Mr. Cavalier Kakarot had been visiting for three consecutive days, and that the young man would wait for half a day in the Tulip Duke's mansion every day. time. "Master Gabriel likes that guy very much. He often drags that Mr. Kakarot to practice martial arts."

The little housekeeper, Sandy, took Du Wei's horse with his own hands, and said with a smile: "Mr. Kakarot came early in the morning today, and I'm afraid he's still in Master Gabriel's yard now." Du Wei nodded: "Is Hussein back?" "He's back." Sandy nodded: "He should be in your study now." Du Wei smiled slightly after hearing this, and said to his little manager Sandy: "Go and ask Kakarot Knight to come to see me, go to my study." Hussein lives in another room in the courtyard of Du Wei's study. Although he has gotten rid of the annoying wanted warrant, the habit of reclusive life he has developed over the past few years has not been changed all at once.

When Du Wei returned to the study, he saw Hussein wiping his armor in the yard. The paladin looked serious and meticulous. "Do you know?" Du Wei smiled: "As a high-ranking knight, you should have several followers, such as wiping the armor or taking care of the horses, should not be done by yourself." Hussein raised his head and watched Du Wei walk in without much surprise. He said indifferently, "What you told me has been completed. I put the things you asked for on your table." "Well, is everything going well?" Du Wei nodded. "It went well, no one knew I did it. It's just... this guy looks like he should be damned."

"Oh?" Du Weiduo asked. "When I killed him, he was using violence...to bully a woman." Du Wei nodded: "Okay, friend. Put down your armor... You don't need to wipe this set, in fact, I have prepared some good things for you. I have to meet a guest first, and I will put the armor on in a while. Here's a set of things for you. Well... Throw away these scrap copper and iron in your hands." Du Wei blinked and smiled smugly. When Kakarot was invited to Du Wei's study by Little Sandy, the young man's expression was a little excited. The door was closed, and Du Wei sat behind the table, looking at the nervous Kakarot: "Okay, I think you know what I invited you to. I promised you, and now I can fulfill it .”

As he said that, Du Wei pointed to a square wooden box on a table: "There is what you want." "I know, in fact, you prefer to do it yourself. But... that would be too time-consuming. Although I can help you, after all, you don't have an official position yet, and you only have a little bit of status and wealth. It depends on You have to fight against a local garrison commander by yourself, you have to fight for at least a few years. But we have no time..." Du Wei looked at Kakarot seriously: "I need your secret! It's very important! " Kakarot took a deep breath, walked to the table, lifted the lid of the wooden box, and took a look.

Inside was a head, and it had been sprinkled with lime to prevent it from rotting, but his original appearance could still be seen. Seeing the human head in the box, Kakarot's face suddenly became very complicated, his eyes were full of excitement, and after carefully identifying it, he closed the lid. "You can take it away." Du Wei smiled: "Do as you like." "I owe you." Kakarot stared at Du Wei: "You avenged me, so I owe you a lot." "I need the secret about the Griffin." Du Wei sighed: "You just need to tell me that and it will be paid off."

Kakarot immediately took out a tattered booklet from his pocket: "It's all in there, these are the notes left by my teacher during his lifetime." He put the brochure on Du Wei's table and looked into Du Wei's eyes: "Your Excellency, from now on, my life is yours too. I swear with my soul, I am willing to be loyal to you for the rest of my life!" "Actually, you don't need this." Du Wei sighed. "I know, for a big man like you, you don't care about the allegiance of such a small character like me. But I still want to do it. I swore it." Kakarot said very seriously: "You help I have fulfilled the greatest wish of my life and avenged me."

As the stubborn young man said, he picked up the wooden box, bowed deeply to Du Wei, and strode away. Watching the young man leave, Du Wei just sighed, and immediately started to flip through the booklet... This booklet is not only about various studies on griffins, but in Du Wei's view, it is also the notes of a very different nature lover in this era... just like the National Geographic programs he saw in his previous life . ... In fact, the secrets about griffins are not as complicated as imagined. The reason why Aragorn failed back then was mainly because the griffin cubs he captured used the wrong feeding method, causing all the cubs to starve to death. . And in this booklet, the secret of the Griffon, this magical creature is revealed! Griffin, this creature is egg-laying rather than viviparous. A griffin has a lifespan of about 20 years. A two-year-old griffin, even if it is basically an adult, can have strong strength, strong wings, sharp claws... and can reproduce offspring at the same time. Adult griffins lay four to six eggs, which then hatch in about four months. The biggest secret is the first feeding of the newly hatched baby griffins! According to the notes left by Kakarot's teacher, this guy who is obsessed with the study of griffins once lurked for a long time in a southern swamp where a griffin inhabited, risking his life, and discovered such a thing. scene... When a baby griffin is born, the adult griffin will be fed for the first time, and this feeding has a special meaning!It is also because of this feeding that the young griffins have the ability to distinguish who their "parents" are! Kakarot's teacher witnessed an adult griffin feeding its cubs for the first time. It was not feeding the meat of the prey it had hunted into the cub's mouth as people imagined... but ,Blood! "It punctured its own paw and dripped the blood flowing from the paw into the cub's mouth... I was shocked when I saw this scene! I have never heard of this feeding method, let alone seen it. Yes! I mean, many creatures in this world, such as cows, sheep and horses, feed their young with milk, and birds feed their prey...Humans also use milk. But griffins...this Such a ferocious thing actually uses its own blood to feed the cubs!" It is for this reason that juvenile griffins that have tasted the blood of their parents acquire an odor discrimination that they refuse to eat any other food!Only drink the blood of parents! A griffin, on the other hand, needs to drink the blood of its parents for about two months, and then they have a meeting to "wean off the blood", which is like "weaning" a human being. During this special "nurturing" period, adult male griffins will frequently hunt prey, while female griffins will remain in the nest, weakened by blood loss.All food must be provided by the male griffin. "Obviously, His Majesty, the founding emperor of the country thousands of years ago, made a mistake in the way of feeding the little griffins. He asked people to feed the little griffins meat... But he didn't know that the little griffins didn't eat this kind of food at all. They only drink blood, their mother's blood!" "After drinking blood for two months, the baby griffins will grow up a bit, and then they will stop drinking blood. Two-month-old griffins have already grown teeth, but at this time, they have learned to recognize who They are their own parents, and they only eat the prey brought back by their parents. At this time, if someone else feeds them, they will refuse to eat. After one year old, the little griffins will start to try to hunt, and will try to follow the griffin's hunting The food brigade is dispatched, and when the baby griffin is about two years old, it will be considered an adult and will be driven out of the nest by its parents and set up a new family." "According to my guess, if you want to tame this beast, there may be a way. The first way is to quietly get a few griffin eggs, and then feed it other things when it is first born, so that the little one The Griffon thinks that the person who feeds it is its parents. Otherwise, it would not eat any other food at all...The failure of the Emperor Aragorn back then was because of this reason." "Our biggest problem is how to get the little griffins to eat, and prevent them all from starving to death. As long as they don't die, it shouldn't be too difficult to domesticate these things. Just solve this problem!" Du Wei closed the booklet. The handwriting on it was scribbled and messy, and the notes were rough. It was obvious that the teacher in Kakarot was not well-educated.But the content of this booklet is worth a thousand gold to Du Wei! "It seems that we need griffin eggs." Du Wei sighed. But griffin eggs are not easy to come by!That kind of ferocious herd beast, even if you send a large number of troops, it will be difficult to defeat them... As a last resort, Du Wei invited Hussein. "I'm sorry, my friend, I have to trouble you again... I'm going to the south again." Du Wei smiled bitterly: "I need you to help me bring back some griffin eggs. They must be whole, and the more the better." Hussein looked calm. "However, before you go, I have a present for you."
