Mage Joan

Chapter 267 Beach Banquet (Ⅱ)

Thomas looked at Joann in confusion.

"What about the firewood, don't you buy it?"

"Don't buy it, I have a way to make a fire."

Joan turned around and left.

Thomas and the Tyndale brothers looked at each other. Although he couldn't figure out Joan's plan, he still followed him.

The old firewood seller shrugged, not caring about their departure.

On this night when more than 2,000 tourists landed on the beach, everyone wanted to have a bonfire of their own, and he didn't have to worry about finding a buyer.

Joan and the others were reluctant to spend two gold coins to buy a bundle of firewood, since other tourists with good money could afford it.

The four of Joan returned to the beach.

Bobby ran over to pick up the wooden bucket carried by the young master, looked at the fresh fish, shrimp and scallops in the bucket, smiled with satisfaction, and immediately started preparing dinner.

"Master, did you forget to buy firewood? It's time to start a bonfire." Bobby asked Thomas uncertainly while busy.

Thomas shrugged and spread his hands, turning to look at Joan.

Joan opened the storage bag silently, took out a crystal bead the size of a pigeon egg, placed it in the center of a sandpit, and softly chanted the elf spell.

"úré!"

The crystal beads burst into magical brilliance with the activation of the incantation, turning bright red in color, and then a large group of flames burst out, converging into a blazing bonfire.

"Wow! That's amazing!"

Thomas' eyes lit up and he couldn't help applauding.

"No wonder you kid ignored that treacherous old man selling firewood, so you have such a good thing in your hand!"

"Joan, where did you buy this magical device that can turn into a bonfire, and how long can it last?"

"It's not a problem to burn all night." Joan replied truthfully, and by the way, he also helped Yangbo Firm to advertise.

Seeing the flames rising, Bobby finally felt relieved.

He swiftly ripped open the belly of the four plump cod, leaving only the pure white meat, and threw the removed spine, internal organs, head and tail to the hounds as snacks.

Large lobsters that are more than a foot long, one by one, the backs are removed, the shrimp lines and internal organs are removed, and the white and tender shrimp meat is seasoned with garlic and salty butter.

After packing up the ingredients, Bobby opened the grill above the bonfire, spread a grilling net woven with wire, first put two pairs of processed lobsters on the hot wire net to bake, and then stacked the cleaned scallops in rows on the griddle.

Finally, pick up the pan, set it on the campfire, cut two pieces of butter and throw it into the pan to melt, and then fry the cod meat in the pan slowly.

Fry until the fish skin is golden, turn over and continue frying, season with sea salt and pepper, sprinkle with rosemary and shredded cheese before serving, it is so fragrant!

Bobby distributed the cooked food to the little master and his companions.

Everyone, including Joan, was full of praise.

Thomas wielded the dagger skillfully, picked out the grilled scallop meat that was just cooked, and swallowed it together with the delicious gravy.

He smacked his lips in satisfaction, and when he saw someone pushing a wheelbarrow selling alcohol, he waved for the peddler to come over and bought four bottles of ice-cold rum, plus a large glass of beer with snow-white foam for each person.

Paired with a good wine, this hearty seafood barbecue meal is truly complete.

A sip of wine, a sip of food, Qiao An was enjoying his meal, when suddenly a familiar laughter came from behind him.

"No wonder we are far away, and we can see that this bonfire is different. It turns out that the 'campfire rosary' in Javier's store was bought by your kid!"

Joan looked back to the opposite side of the beach, and three familiar figures came towards this side, they were Xiao Miao, Ah Zhi and Teacher Benny.

"What delicious food are you cooking? It's so delicious!"

Azhi walked quickly to the campfire, and curiously looked at the squeaky fried fish steaks on the pan.

"The three teachers haven't had dinner yet? If you don't mind, sit down and eat and drink together. There's nothing good, just enough wine and meat! Bobby, bring three sets of utensils." Thomas warmly greeted the visitors.

"Then we're welcome."

A Zhi took the plate handed by Bobby, forked a piece of delicious fried cod fillet and took a big bite, squinting his eyes and raising his whiskers in satisfaction, repeatedly praising the deliciousness.

Xiao Miao and Mr. Benny also sat down around the bonfire rising from the sandpit, took the plate and wine glass handed by Bobby, and began to eat and drink.

"Mr. Azhi, the four of us are participating in the hunting competition for the first time. We are very unfamiliar with the environment on the island, and we have no clear plans for tomorrow's hunting itinerary."

"I heard from Joan just now that this year is the third time you, Sister Meow, and Teacher Benny have come to 'Wild Boar Island' to report on the hunting conference. You must be familiar with the local situation. Can you give us some information that will help us achieve good results? Grade advice?"

Roger took the opportunity to inquire.

"Ha! You are asking the right person for this question!"

Ah Zhi put down the knife and fork, opened the backpack and rummaged, took out a sheepskin scroll and handed it to Roger.

"This map of Wild Boar Island is given to you as a reward for the seafood feast you entertained."

Roger unfolded the scroll, and what appeared in front of him was a hand-drawn map, which was quite detailed, and all important locations were marked with red ink.

Joan, Thomas, and Dick all put down their cutlery and came over to look at the map curiously.

First of all, find the beach where everyone is at the moment. The lines drawn by the nearby black ink pens are not difficult to recognize. It is the wharf area and beach area separated by walls and moats—the only area on the island that can ensure safety.

Looking beyond the defensive belt, Joan found that the central part of the island was covered with dense forests.

A freshwater lake formed by a crater, located in the northern highlands region of the jungle.

During the rainy summer, the water level in the lake rises, and it pours down to the lower south, forming a river that meanders through the forest, and finally flows into the sea at the harbor near the pier.

The river that flows through Wild Boar Island from north to south is marked as "Safari River" on the map, and the name sounds a bit strange.

After inquiring about it from Ah Zhi, Joan learned that the river was named after the "Hunting Festival" became popular, and it was closely related to the hunting competition.

"This river is the only water vein on Wild Boar Island. Wild boars living in the forest often drink and forage by the river. Most of the teams participating in the hunting conference will choose to hunt along this river."

"Choosing this hunting route has at least three benefits."

"First of all, you can ensure that you have adequate fresh water supplies during your journey.

"Secondly, walk along the river without worrying about getting lost."

"The last and most important point is because it's the safest route."

A Zhi pointed to the "Safari River" outlined in blue lines on the map, and introduced it to Joan and the others.

The first two advantages of a river safari are obvious, and the last is not difficult to understand after a little reflection.

Since most teams hunt along the river, it is easy to take care of each other.

If a hunting team encounters a large herd of wild boars or even more difficult wild boars and razor boars, within a short period of time a conflict occurs, other hunting teams nearby will be alerted and come to support in time.

More people, of course, are safer.

The plot is almost ready, I will try to write five chapters tomorrow
