Chapter 17 One-stop

 After David rushed out of the nest, he realized that he had not woken up at the right time.

It's winter outside right now.

It is already cold in the north of the Old World. According to David, it is estimated that it will be at least 50 or 60 degrees below zero, which is almost different from Siberia in January.

At a glance, everywhere is covered in ice and snow.

This is not the season that dragons, especially red dragons, like.

"If I had known, I would have slept for a few more months." David smacked his lips.

But now that I'm awake, my already raging stomach is no longer so easy to soothe.

After searching for a long time, we didn’t even see two rabbits, let alone large prey such as bears or elk.

After a long effort, David used his forked tongue to sniff out the nest of a nest of woodchucks.

As a result, when cooking this nest of beggar woodchucks, the heat was not controlled properly, and all the woodchucks and tree holes in this nest turned into charcoal...

I don’t know if it was because of the use of some dragon breath, but David couldn’t eat the hot food in time and felt even hungrier.

I had no choice but to take a few bites of snow and press it down.

At the same time, David also understood that the creatures on Blue Star had not evolved fire-breathing organs for so many millions of years.

Without him, the pure energy consumption is too high.

He did a simple conversion using the high school chemistry equation from his previous life.

Assuming that he wants to cook a three-pound rabbit, he needs to at least heat it until the internal temperature reaches 74 degrees Celsius.

He remembered that the specific heat capacity of rabbit meat was about 2.9 Joules/g·C.

Then the energy required is 1500 grams

Each 100 grams of rabbit meat contains approximately 20.8 grams of protein and 5.6 grams of fat. The caloric densities of protein and fat are 4 kcal/g and 9 kcal/g respectively, so you can get 1248 kcal of protein energy and 756 kcal respectively.

of fat energy, the total energy added together is 2004 kcal.

In other words, hell, if he eats such a cooked rabbit, regardless of any conversion loss, he can only get 2,000 calories.

And just to make it half-cooked, you have to add half a spicy rabbit head!

But how is this possible! If he takes that dragon's breath earlier, he might even be able to restore the entire household registration book of this litter of woodchucks and it won't be enough to repay...

This doesn’t even include the physical exertion of finding and catching prey!

With such an outrageous return on investment, setting up a spicy rabbit head stall would cost you two taels of fat!

So David also came up with an answer that made him a little painful:

That is, he either keeps quiet and chooses to eat raw frozen meat directly like Bai Long and go into the sea to fish.

Or, just ignore these innocent little animals that are destined to lose weight after eating them, and go directly to the big ones to attack!

It’s best to go in groups.

As a red dragon, he instinctively ignored the previous thought.

So the question is, where can we find swarms of prey?

David's bright yellow eyes, which were extremely conspicuous in the snow, narrowed slightly.

Teacher Zhao Zhongxiang’s rhythmic broadcast seemed to resound in my mind:

"During the cold winter in the north, groups of wild herbivores usually choose to spend the winter in places with sufficient food sources, shelter and relative safety. Therefore, open meadows are buried under the snow, which can at the same time withstand harsh weather and reduce energy.

The valleys consumed have become the choice of most of these herbivores..."

The red dragon soared into the air, looked around at an altitude of three thousand meters, and then flew straight towards the most eye-catching valley not far to the north.

As David approached, we saw groups of yaks gathering together.

The falling snowflakes laid a thick layer on them, and from a distance, they looked like a big flower.

"Sure enough! "Animal World" does not deceive me!"

The red dragon with burning eyes immediately folded its hunting wings, accompanied by the wind and snow, and headed towards the valley where the aromatic Argentinian barbecue, grilled steak, spicy tripe...

Swoop down!

Like a husky running towards the flock.

"Hey~ha!!!"

......

Deep in the dense forests of the North, there are mountain barbarians and the Luoxinde tribe.

In a castle renovated by a mixture of abandoned ancient ruins.

The Luoxinde clan is solemnly conducting a once-in-a-year transaction with a team of high elf envoys from afar.

This is also the most important thing for all the tribes in the North. No one, including little Luoxinde, dares to be careless.

Because the outcome of this irregular transaction is likely to be related to their tribe's long-term interests and force reserves in the next few years, and even the strength comparison with other surrounding forces.

The content of the transaction is very simple.

The high elves brought them weapons, armor, various handicrafts, spices, standard gold and silver coins, and even the magic alchemy potions they most desired.

The Northlanders provide the high elves with processed furs, slaves, raw metal ores, and collected and dried dragon dung.

Yes, dragon dung.

God knows why this group of arrogant high elves are interested in this gadget that can only be used to drive away wild beasts, and the price is not low.

Although doing this would easily arouse the dragon's anger once discovered by the giant dragon, they are barbarians whose main life is nomadic raiding, and the most important thing they do not lack is warriors.

In the eyes of these mountain barbarians, although the group of bean sprouts in front of them all look weak, they have never had the courage to attack them.

In the eyes of the vast majority of Northlanders, high elves are symbols of civilization, strength, magic and nobility, like messengers from heaven.

After all, it’s not surprising. Even the residence beneath their feet still has indelible traces of elves’ carvings.

This means that the group of bean sprouts in front of you were the masters of this land a few years ago.

But for some unknown reason, the whole family moved overseas, to a place where they could not see the coast even after rowing for seven days and seven nights.

Therefore, there are also rumors that they went to the kingdom of gods.

In such a situation where the two parties are completely unequal, the valuation of their goods is often very low.

There are often situations where ten of their strong slaves are needed for a good quality axe.

But they can only admit it.

After all, in the eyes of many of them, if Katana was not too cold and desolate, they might not even be qualified to live on this land.

But even so, looking at the supplies that the entire clan obtained over the years, they only exchanged a few bottles of anger mixture, a dozen axes, some accessories that were of no use except for decoration, and a small box of elven silver coins.

As the successor of the next generation of chieftains, little Luoxinde felt a little angry and unwilling for no reason.

But since his uncle, who is the clan leader, has no objections to the clan members, it stands to reason that he cannot have any objections either.

But just when the transaction was over, the high elf leader who had never spoken seemed to suddenly remember something, and looked back at them and said:

"I have another deal here. I wonder if you are interested?

"As for the reward, we will deliver double the transaction materials afterwards."

As soon as these words came out, all the barbarians present widened their eyes, and from time to time there were sounds of swallowing due to shock and greed.

Luo Xinde immediately secretly said that it was not a good thing to ask such a high price.

Just as he was about to stop him, the old Chief Luoxinde, his uncle, had already agreed:

"We have accepted this deal. I wonder what your distinguished guests need? Or do you need...what can we do for you?"

"One dragon."

The high elf raised a slender finger and said with a smile:

"My team was recently attacked by a dragon."

"I need you to catch it for me."
