Chapter 6 The World
Chapter 6 This World
Listening to these adventurers and businessmen who are walking around is an important way for Ender to broaden his horizons and understand the world.
Adventurers will chat about their adventures and various hearsays while eating; merchants will talk about price changes and aristocratic anecdotes; even locals will talk about some gossip about parents and families.
Although this information is messy, if someone is interested in pieced together the information, he can have some intuitive understanding of the world.
This world is not the only one intelligent race of humans. From the various words I have heard over the years, Ender knows that there are elves occupying forests and grasslands, orcs distributed in grasslands, plains, forests, dwarves living in mountains, hills and barbarians on the northern plateaus.
It is said that there are also wonderful creatures such as dragons, fishmen and mermaids, giants and demons.
These creatures are relatively rare, or in other words, adventurers who come to Leicester Town should have never seen these lives with their own eyes.
Therefore, the plausible content they describe does not conform to normal logic, and some even contradictory content.
Ender didn't take these contents seriously - a larger earthworm could turn into a dragon after being reposted by ten people, not to mention that these adventurers were used to exaggerating.
But some content should be reliable.
For example, there is more than one human kingdom.
The strongest human kingdom is the Kingdom of St. Eddit in the south.
Not all human kingdoms are on the same side. Some human kingdoms are close to orcs, some are friendly to elves, and some are doing business with dwarves, mainly depending on geopolitical distribution.
Although there are differences between races, it is not entirely differentiated by race.
You can see orcs drinking with elves at the same table, or you can see elves and humans holding each other's arms.
The main contradiction between smart creatures has always been a dispute over interests rather than a racial issue.
Now that Carrien and the others talked about the Southern War, Ender also heard about it from other merchants.
It seemed that the two human kingdoms south of the Kingdom of Gilt were fighting with a large elves tribe, causing many wealthy people in these kingdoms to go north to buy territory to build manors and castles, and prepare a way out for themselves.
According to the merchants, the Gilt Kingdom where Ender is now located, just selling manors and fiefs to foreign nobles and big merchants at high prices has already made a fortune. Uncle Terligan, deputy captain of the town guard, is also because the fiefs have soared, which makes it even harder to obtain the Knight title.
(The territory is a rare thing, but as long as the price is high enough, you can still buy it. If you have a noble title, you will be accused of becoming a local territory noble after purchasing a territory that is suitable for the noble title.)
After listening for a while, I felt that there was nothing new to these adventurers talking about. Ender turned around and walked towards the kitchen outlet, preparing to help deliver the meal.
"End, come in and help first, let them deliver the food." Mr. Reult greeted Ender.
Business is good today, but the preparation of special dishes in the kitchenette of Reulte Inn is somewhat unable to keep up with the orders of guests.
Everyone can deliver dishes and serve wine, but not everyone can do the job in the kitchen. Only those who are truly their own people can enter the kitchen.
The Reult Hotel now has two large kitchens, which produce traditional foods such as mashed potatoes, grilled sausages and barbecue. The kitchenette produces special dishes of the Reult Hotel, and there is no such dish in other places.
These special dishes are very valuable, and the Reultes don't want others to learn them.
But Ende is an exception. Most of the dishes in the kitchen are invented by Ende - such as fried eggs with tomatoes, stewed beef brisket with potatoes, steamed fish, etc.
"Okay." Ander hurried into the kitchen, went to the sink to wash his hands and change his clothes. The dish asked, "What do you want me to do? Uncle Reilt. You are here too, Brother Porto."
"Treat these fish first, then beef, and those potatoes-" Mr. Reult and his second son Porto were busy in the kitchen, without touching his feet and giving his head to Ender, and then he quickly continued to cook.
Porto is the second son of the Reultes and his wife. In recent years, hotels and restaurants have become more and more popular. This young man who likes to wander around has been helped by his parents Chuan.
"End, you're so troublesome to make these dishes." Porto complained, unable to stop his hands.
"Nonsense, if it weren't for Little Ander, would we have so much money now?" Mr. Reulte scolded his son and continued, "I'm really overwhelmed now. Your mother promised to ask some apprentices to come to the kitchen to help, and we'll be much more relaxed in the future."
"Can your mother agree to this?" Porto couldn't believe what kind of person Mrs. Reulter was, and he didn't know what kind of son he was?
She would rather bring his son back, and she wouldn't worry that others would have secretly learned these dishes. In fact, if the elder brother had not done a good job in Grae City and had his own industry, the elder brother would probably have been brought back.
"Your mother is going to open another restaurant in Grae City. If you don't train some chefs, the restaurant will definitely not be able to continue." Mr. Reulter said the reason.
"Ha, is this my brother's idea?"
"Well, your brother Ron has eaten the dishes at home. He thinks that if we can drive to Gran City, we will definitely make a lot of money.
Your mother doesn't care about making a lot of money, but we always have to keep some property for your brothers. The hotel here promises you to inherit it, and your mother wants to leave a property for your brother in Grae City."
"What about Ender, continue to help me and be a chef?" Porto asked.
In the past few years, Ender has been very fond of the Reulter through his performance. Although he did not call the Reulter and his parents, he was treated in a similar manner as his biological son Porto. He had dinner at the same table, which was no different from his family.
As he said that, Porto turned his head and looked at Ender, who was dealing with a big fish.
A cold light jumped and flickered between his five fingers, and pieces of fish like thin paper fluttered up, landing accurately on the plate on one side, lined up in neat shapes as if they were arranged by themselves.
"Hiss-End, how did you practice this knife skills?" Porto was shocked.
This kind of knife skills in handling food can reach this level, which is simply amazing.
Mr. Reult said dissatisfiedly: "I want Ender to be a chef for you? Now, like you did back then, he is as tall as you did. No matter how your family objected, he felt that his wings were hard, so he was determined to go out and ventured, and looked down on such a stable life.
He has applied to the town's official office to be a patrol hunter and will take the assessment the day after tomorrow! - If he hadn't insisted on becoming a hunter, your mother wouldn't have agreed to us recruiting kitchen apprentices.
Ender, no matter how skillful the sword skills are practiced in the kitchen, can you still fight with a kitchen knife?"
Mr. Reult was a little angry. What happened to these children? They all thought the outside world was wonderful, but can those adventurers believe what bragged?
Adventurers who can sit in the restaurant bragging survive, of course they will say so;
But are there few adventurers who die in the wild every year? Can you hear these people’s statements?
The patrol hunter said that he was a territory guardian who patrols the edge of the forest, drives away wild beasts, and protects the safety of the lords, but sometimes he had to deal with groups of goblins and goblins. When he was not lucky, he would encounter ogres!
No matter how good you practice the skill of cutting vegetables, can Ende use this kitchen knife to deal with ogres?
There were also Mr. Cory and Ms. Lerira. When I heard that Ender’s idea was not only not talking about him, but also encouraged him to play a very bad role in his ignorance.
Listening to Uncle Ryert's complaint, An Ya had no choice but to laugh.
This old couple may think that peace and safety are happiness. They live a relatively wealthy life in a hotel all their lives, even if their life is perfect, but as a time traveler, Ande certainly has a heart that is unwilling to be calm.
If he has always been a weak scum, it would be fine, but if he opens the ‘Self-examination’ panel, the data displayed on it is already very different from five years ago!
Name: Ander Tilles (Zhou An)
Occupation: Hunter
Race: Human
Attributes: Physical constitution 13(13), Intelligence 13(13)
Talent: absolute balance; chickens are in the morning, dogs are guarding the night
Skills: Self-examination, circulation
This hunter profession is not the patrol hunter profession that Ender is preparing to take up, but an explanation evolved based on Ender's mentality and behavior.
Select a target and hunt the target.
People with this mindset will be evaluated as hunter profession by ‘self-examination’.
As for physical constitution 13 and intelligence 13, a further explanation has finally appeared on the screen.
The intelligence here refers to the potential of the physical composition of the body, such as how many brain cells are there, how active the brain cells are, how much utilization, and whether the body can provide sufficient nutritional support for the operation of brain cells.
Such empirical accumulation of how many books you read and how many mathematical formulas you memorize is not entirely within the scope of the system. Of course, it may be that this mentally retarded skill cannot evaluate such complex things, so you should simply start from a physical perspective and conduct intellectual evaluation.
Therefore, the intelligence mentioned here is not consistent with the intelligence that ordinary people understand, it is just a physical potential.
When Ande thought of this, the screen showed a big contempt expression: "Because your stupid bird's IQ is too low, it's because my uncle's performance is low-"
Over the years, Ender has become numb to the contempt of himself by the skill of "self-examination". He just silently stretched out a middle finger in response.
On the full body image on the left side of the screen, Ende is no longer the skinny image. He is a slender figure and can be seen on it.
My face is no longer as malnutrition as pale as I used to be, but a skin color with a faint rosy white, like jade-colored skin; my hair has also changed from brown to black, and the light can be seen.
Ande nodded with satisfaction. This was the result of his good health preservation over the past five years.
"This is my credit." Another line popped up in the middle of the screen.
Ender did not refute. Without the skill of "self-examination", Ender would never have become like this.
Click the full body image and the inside of the body is full of yellow that represents health, and the brain and heart have turned orange and yellow, which is completely different from the shocking blue and purple color back then.
(Red, orange, yellow, green, blue, purple, and purple, the worst color, indicating that the body tissue is close to necrosis; the highest red represents the peak of the human body.)
Ande took a breath slowly, controlling the slight muscles in his body to rush, and triggering the circulation of qi and blood.
As the muscles twitch, an orange-yellow light and shadow were inside the body, and began to walk through the five internal organs in the order of the heart, spleen, lungs, kidneys and liver, connecting the five internal organs into one!
