The parade has concluded.
However, the excitent in Feilengcui is just beginning.
The evening celebration is even more thrilling...
The gradually dimming sky is adorned with magical fireworks becoming more splendid, as night falls, the whole city lights up.
The shadowy lights make the beautiful Elf City look like a dreamy City of Eternal Night floating amidst the glow.
The seats in Feilengcui Square were removed, and various crowds once again gathered; the bonfire party has comnced.
Being among the VIPs, Tonglu also received an invitation to the bonfire party.
It seed that most of the participants were Elf Chosen Ones, which could be determined from their attire; compared to the dayti elf residents, they were much more enthusiastic, especially towards the foreign guests...
Flas and dance, music and laughter—the night bonfire banquet was equally engaging.
As for the food at the bonfire party, it once again exceeded Tonglu’s expectations, as he saw more curious and wonderful dishes, incredibly delicious.
Especially the barbecue.
The barbecue ingredients were incredibly diverse, though mostly vegetarian.
At least on the surface.
However, under Little Xian Miao’s guidance, Tonglu successfully blended into the small circle of Elf Chosen Ones and enjoyed the essence of barbecue—
Grilled at!
That’s what Little Xian Miao said.
The grilled at ca in various forms, mostly Demon Beast at from the Elf Forest, with so sheep and cows raised by the Elf Chosen Ones.
Elves raising livestock—it sounded odd, but after communicating with the Chosen Ones, Tonglu was surprised to find their breeding experience quite rich...
Tonglu had been an adventurer before, and for adventurers who often traveled in the wild, grilled at was familiar.
However, the Elf Chosen Ones’ high-level techniques surpassed Tonglu’s imagination.
The spices they used for grilled at were mysterious and tasty, creating skewers that were golden and glossy, mildly spicy with a fresh flavor, crispy outside, tender inside, and the at was astonishingly delicious with a unique taste...
Tonglu particularly liked the lamb skewers grilled by a pair of Chosen One brothers.
According to them, the lambs were fed with specially enchanted Magic Mania Wheat, and the selected parts were a mix of lean and fat for the best taste when bitten into, hot and fragrant, sizzling with oil.
Moreover, the marinade prior to grilling was specially concocted, including honey and so unique spices produced in the Elf Forest, which removed the gamy taste while ensuring the lamb’s freshness.
Then, the at chunks were skewered with branches of Magic Fragrant Wood from the Elf Forest, having both lean and fat segnts, achieving the optimal texture.
According to the brothers, they were specialists in barbecue before becoming elves.
In Tonglu’s view, their skill in grilling could be called art.
Biting into a steaming at skewer, the oil flowed in the mouth, the soft fat lted instantly, while the thin muscle was tender and flavorful, yet chewy...
When sared with spicy sauce and paired with strong liquor, it was perfect.
Tonglu heartily ate the at skewers while rrily drinking the wine offered by the Chosen Ones, thoroughly content.
At this mont, he almost didn’t want to leave.
"Barbecue and wine! It’s simply the romance of dwarves!"
He praised.
Clinking glasses with the male Chosen Ones seated around the bonfire, Tonglu listened to their music while savoring the delicacies.
Until... a few sowhat flustered Chosen Ones ran over:
"Quickly, conceal everything! The Elf Priest NPC is coming!"
Under Tonglu’s strange gaze, the previously joyous Chosen Ones changed their expressions and hurriedly tidied up the barbecue scene... primarily hiding the grilled at, then replacing it with an array of vegetarian ingredients.
Even the at skewer in Tonglu’s hand was taken by Little Xian Miao.
Tonglu:...
The Elf Chosen Ones haphazardly covered the "cri" scene just as a few white-robed Elf Priests arrived before the crowd.
Leading them was Feilengcui’s High Priest, Samir Wind.
He sniffed the air, his expression peculiar.
Giving a glance to the sha-faced Chosen Ones, he retracted his gaze and looked towards Tonglu.
Then enthusiastically asked:
"Lord Tonglu, how is the festival in Feilengcui?"
"Quite wonderful!"
Tonglu complinted.
Samir chuckled:
"I’m glad you like it."
Then he added apologetically:
"I apologize for taking so long to co find you; the church was extrely busy today."
"Lord Alice has already reviewed your docunts; are you now willing to proceed to the temple to discuss their contents?"
"Of course, it is quite late today; if you’re tired, we can continue tomorrow."
Listening to the Elf Priest’s words, Tonglu’s spirits lifted.
He chuckled, waved his hand, and said:
"No, I’m not tired; I am a legend."
Then he looked serious:
"Please lead the way; I’m ready..."
...
Within the Life Temple of Feilengcui.
Wearing her Holy Maiden Dress, Alice knocked on the door of the core office.
"Lord Ling, the Sky Knight Tonglu from the Dwarf Kingdom has arrived at the temple. The Chosen Ones’ representative Li Mu, the leader of the Primordial Elves, Serenadil, and the representative of the Oros Elves, Taylor, are all waiting in the hall."
She said respectfully.
There was silence from behind the door for a mont, then a clear voice responded:
"I understand."
Then the door gently opened.
The Divine Favored Zero, dressed in a black skirt and armor, erged.
She discreetly wiped the corner of her mouth and said:
"Let’s go together."
Then she walked towards the direction of the temple’s main hall.
Alice nodded and prepared to follow.
However, as she closed the office door, she sniffed a bit.
"Why does it feel like there’s a barbecue sll..."
She wondered aloud.
Shaking her head, the Elf Saintess turned and followed Divine Favored Zero’s steps.
