Chapter 47: [The Fire Spirit Wolf King's Banquet]

"Sadness will always pass. Now, our village has upgraded to an advanced village; conditions will continue to improve, and everyone's lives will get better and better!"

"Now, we shall bestow rewards for the recent Battle of Defense to protect our homes! Only with rewards and punishments can we maintain order and stimulate everyone's morale!"

"I will now announce the meritorious individuals: First, the one who deserves the highest merit is our village's Military Attendant, Lord Fengjin!"

"He trains troops with discipline and commands with poise. He fought fiercely against the King Beast, the Howling Moon Silver Wolf King, and finally slew it, turning the tide of battle and securing our victory to defend our homes! He is the great hero of our village! Our territory specifically awards Fengjin 100,000 coins, a jar of Hundred Flower Wine, and a set of Invincible Battle Armor!" Lin Mu announced excitedly.

"Wow, such generous rewards! 100,000 coins—that's a lot of money! And a jar of Hundred Flower Wine, the signature wine of the Hundred Flower Pavilion—that's not something you can drink easily!"

"Yeah, I heard the Lord purchased this jar of wine at a high price on the trading market. It's extremely rare!"

"That's right! I heard that when you drink Hundred Flower Wine, it feels as if a hundred types of floral scents are drifting through your mouth, incredibly fragrant, like appreciating a hundred flowers. It has a unique charm, and the wine itself even increases special attributes!"

"Yes, yes! I really want to try some Hundred Flower Wine!"

"Haha, when you all earn merits for the territory, I don't think the Lord will be stingy. Perhaps he'll reward you with something even better than Hundred Flower Wine!"

"Mhm, mhm! From now on, I will charge bravely into battle and achieve unprecedented feats!"

"..."

"It's a pity we are production classes; we can't charge into battle for the territory. I wonder how we can earn merit?"

"You dummy, production classes have their moments to earn merit too! I heard the Changyin Village Attendant has already released a merit task list for production classes. As long as we work hard and manufacture more high-quality products for the territory, we can build our reputations!"

"Really? Haha! Then I'll work even harder in the future and strive to research better products to earn merit. Not only will I contribute to the territory, but I'll also receive the Lord's rewards. It's killing two birds with one stone, haha!"

"..."

The villagers below were buzzing with discussion. Some were sturdy soldiers filled with fantasies of future glory, while others were production workers with firm determination. At this moment, everyone was united like a single rope, resilient and cohesive!

"..."

Lin Mu had bestowed rewards upon all the meritorious individuals from the last battle, providing both money and treasures. These rewards had ignited everyone's morale and enthusiasm; he believed they would work even harder to contribute to the territory.

After finishing the rewards, Lin Mu spoke again: "However, we cannot let our guard down. The outside world is still very dangerous. We must continuously grow stronger to defend our homes."

"Currently, our village has an enemy: the Azure Dragon Stronghold. This stronghold possesses over 100,000 elite soldiers. They constantly exploit and plunder the nearby peaceful Qingfeng Village. If they discover our village, they might come to plunder and exploit us as well. That would be terrifying, and we will never allow such a thing to happen!"

"Therefore, upon discovering the Azure Dragon Stronghold, we immediately began training our soldiers like they were in hell to prepare for war. Now, our warriors have become capable champions. With just 100,000 soldiers, we already have the confidence to face them! I hereby announce: our soldiers are ready. Our next strategy is to attack them, conquer them, eliminate these hidden threats, and defend our homes!"

"This is also our territory's first expedition since its establishment. Do the soldiers have confidence?" Lin Mu roared loudly.

"Yes! Yes! We will definitely conquer them, eliminate them, and defend our homes!" the soldiers below roared back!

"Good, good, good! Haha... With such brave soldiers in our territory, our future is bright!"

"Alright, everything has been arranged. Everyone, begin your meal! Eat and drink to your heart's content! Once we are full and satisfied, we will pick up our weapons, wipe out those evil forces, and defend our homes!" Lin Mu concluded, slowly turning to walk away.

Following Lin Mu's stirring speech and the distribution of rewards, laughter soon filled the air as everyone began tasting the sumptuous food.

The territory was a scene of peace and harmony!

Lin Mu's table consisted of the highest-ranking officials currently in the territory, and the food was meticulously prepared.

Lin Mu checked and saw that it was actually a type of junior gourmet feast

Name: 【Fire Spirit Wolf King Feast】 Grade: Junior Trait: Feast Attributes: Upon first consumption, randomly increases base attributes by 2 points. Subsequent consumption provides no base attribute increase, but restores 2% stamina per second for 20 seconds. Description: Made using the fine meat of the Howling Moon Silver Wolf King, meticulously cooked by an expert-level chef for two days and two nights. As the Wolf King was once a spirit beast, its fine meat contains mysterious spiritual energy, which can increase physical fitness and recovery. Requires a chef of expert level or above to prepare!

So it was a feast made from the meat of the Howling Moon Silver Wolf King. As expected, with the existence of expert-level chefs, it was possible to make food that increased attributes. It was a pity that if there were Master or Grandmaster level chefs, the food might be even more delicious and provide even more attributes! However, this was already a carefully prepared secret recipe and was very precious. Smelling the enchanting aroma wafting from the food, Lin Mu could not help but pick up his chopsticks!

"Good, this feast is exquisitely prepared and beautifully presented, and the aroma is everywhere. Our chef has worked hard; let's all raise a glass to him!" As he spoke, everyone raised their glasses simultaneously.

"The achievements our territory has made today are inseparable from everyone's hard work and dedication, especially Yuanjian and Fengjin. Come, let's all raise a glass to them!" After saying this, another gulp of strong wine went down.

Afterward, Lin Mu praised everyone present one by one and drank quite a bit. Then, as the Lord, Lin Mu took the first bite to begin this delicious and tempting feast!

The exquisite, thin slices of meat were translucent, surrounded by swirling aromas and rising steam, looking incredibly appetizing. Lin Mu gently placed a piece in his mouth; it melted instantly, and an indescribable fragrance filled his throat. Simultaneously, a surge of warmth rose from his stomach and spread throughout his body, feeling extremely comfortable. This was a sensory experience of food that was completely non-existent in reality; the mythical world was indeed mysterious beyond belief.

*Ding!*

"—System Prompt: Player Lin Mu has consumed the junior feast 【Fire Spirit Wolf King Feast】. Spiritual Body Cleansing: Base Martial Power +1, Politics +1!"

It actually increased one point of Martial Power and one point of Politics. Very good—it was a matter of accumulating strength for a great breakthrough!

Small steps lead to a thousand miles; laziness leads to the abyss!

Every little accumulation was for the sake of shocking the world in the future!

Seeing Lin Mu start eating, everyone else also salivated over the exquisite wolf meat, unable to wait to use their chopsticks to take a piece and experience it!

As soon as they took a bite, everyone showed expressions of satisfaction, as if their entire bodies had become much lighter and all fatigue had been swept away. Haha, this wolf meat was indeed extraordinary! For a moment, chopsticks moved in a frenzy as everyone feasted voraciously. It seemed this feast was extremely enticing.

Cups were raised and lowered, and laughter filled the air!
