Eighth Crown

Chapter 276?? The Origin of Estes

"It is indeed the strongest in the empire, and its strength is really not covered."

After Esdeth fell from mid-air, Lucia stepped forward and clapped her hands lightly, looking astonished.

"This level is nothing. Although these two dangerous species are big, their speed is very slow. They are basically targets. At most, they are at the level of super dangerous species."

Estes gently smoothed his long blue hair that was blown by the sea breeze, not even a trace of self-satisfaction could be seen on his face.

"Okay, let's start grilling. Although there is no seasoning, my level is enough to fill this gap."

Esdeth rolled up his sleeves, skillfully disemboweled the prey he had killed before, and set up a fire.

Liu Xia went up to help, picked up two pieces of firewood and put them into the fire, trying to make the flames burn more vigorously.

But after more than ten seconds, the flame in the fire got smaller and smaller for some reason, and finally went out sadly.

Lucia fell into silence.

"...You just leave it alone."

Esdes cast a slightly subtle look at him, "Yangyi, are you really from the countryside, and not the young master of some rich family?"

She looks gentle, likes to read, treats people politely, but doesn't even know a little common sense about making a fire and cooking. Such behavior makes Liu Xia even believe that she came from the countryside.

"sorry."

After Lucia apologized, she took her hands off the cooking process and left it all to Esdesh.

"However, it's really surprising. I didn't expect the captain to be so good at cooking."

In order not to continue to be entangled in the matter of her own background, Liu Xia changed the topic calmly.

"It's okay, I wasn't born as an imperial general either."

While flipping the pieces of meat, Estes replied casually: "When I was young, I often cooked by myself over a fire. Cooking dangerous types of meat is already commonplace."

"When the captain was young... a little hard to imagine."

Lucia thought for a while, but she really couldn't construct the image of Esdeth as a child in her mind.

Probably because Esdeth's current personality is too impressive. In Lucia's eyes, she must have been born with a character of shaking S. On the head of the people, he bosses all the family members around.

"What kind of demon king image is that?"

Estes complained about Lucia's imagination with a speechless face, "Is it that hard to imagine? Even I was a very ordinary girl when I was a child..."

Aren't you the devil yourself?

Lucia said silently in her heart, just as Esdeth had no impression of him, he also had a very shallow impression of Esdesh, he felt that Esdesh was probably the kind of demon king who could do whatever he wanted.

According to Esdes, she was born in a minority named Baluts on the northern border of the empire. This nation is located in a world of ice and snow, with few people and no fertile land for growing crops, so they basically rely on hunting. Dangerous species are used as a means of livelihood, and most of the clansmen have extraordinary skills.

Esdeth's deep-rooted concept was developed at that time. For a family that hunts dangerous species for a living, no matter whether it is the patriarch or anyone else, they can only choose to die in the dangerous species without knowing when. The way of life is not surprising under the claws of the people, and the wild concept of the weak and the strong is stationed in the hearts of every tribe.

When Esdeth went hunting one time, the whole nation was destroyed by the alien tribes in the north.

"The captain killed 400,000 aliens on the northern border before, is it actually revenge in disguise?"

Lucia remembered the previous rumors about Esdeth, and in a blink of an eye suppressed the northern alien army that the empire believed would take at least a year to defeat, and then buried all of the 400,000 aliens alive.

"No, I don't have any thoughts of revenge. After all, the Baluts family is very weak. Even if they are destroyed by a foreign race, there is nothing they can do about it."

Estes lifted the piece of meat, blew lightly, and tasted it, while continuing to answer Lucia's question, "The reason why I chose to bury them all is because it is troublesome to deal with so many prisoners of war. , It takes a lot of manpower and financial resources to arrange them, and I don't have that kind of patience with the enemy, so I simply killed them all."

I see.

During the long-distance march, the existence of prisoners of war is itself a problem, not to mention that the 400,000 prisoners of war consume an astronomical level of resources every day, and there is no need to keep them alive.

If Lucia was standing in that position, then he would most likely choose to do the same thing as Estes.

"What? Don't you have any idea?"

Estes handed the roasted meat to Lucia, "I thought that someone like you would definitely deny my approach and accuse me of not valuing life."

"That's not enough."

Liu Xia shook her head, took a bite of the roasted meat, although it had no taste, but the meat was extremely tender, and the heat of the roast was obviously excellent, "I'm not stubborn, as long as I can effectively attack the enemy, I don't care about the means." Noble or despicable, in the same way, from a long-term perspective, the demise of the alien races in the north is also conducive to the long-term prosperity of the empire."

"So that's the case, maybe you are quite unprecedented."

Estes glanced at Lucia approvingly, not many people have seriously agreed with her approach on this matter.

"How is the taste?"

"Very good. Although it is a pity that there is no seasoning, the meat is very tender. I have never eaten meat that is grilled so properly."

In fact, he had never eaten barbecue before, and this was the first time, but this did not prevent him from saying a few compliments.

"Hmph, eat more if you think it's delicious. After you return to the imperial capital, you won't have such a good taste."

Estes snorted softly, with a satisfied smile on his face, obviously he didn't dislike Lucia's words of praise.

"must."

Lucia nodded in response, while looking up and down at Esdesh.

She is sitting on a wooden stake that has been cut evenly with the moon spirit marrow liquid, her slender legs are close together in front of her, and the behavior of biting a piece of meat is quite ladylike. It is hard to imagine that when this woman starts fighting, will become full of madness.

"What? Is there something strange on me?"

Estes noticed Lucia's gaze, looked around his body, and didn't find anything strange.

"No, nothing."

Liu Xia shook her head, "I was just thinking, when he's not fighting, the captain is really a gentle person."

Although once fighting, it doesn't look like a person.
