After returning to the castle, no one mentioned the outcome of the sword fight. Since the two parties involved did not mention it, the others only thought that the father and son were exchanging pointers.
Since it was a spar, there was no question of victory or defeat.
However, the count was still a bit embarrassed, especially when Madam Marie asked: "Dear, why is the hair in front of your forehead missing? Does it look like it was burned?"
Fortunately, Liszt quick-wittedly helped the count out: "I'm sorry, Madam Marie. When Father was instructing me, I accidentally used too much force, causing my qi to burst and burning a strand of Father's hair … Fortunately, it did not affect his hairline, it really did not affect it."
Madam Marie smiled: "You are all Sky Knights with powerful attack power. You must pay attention to safety when practicing."
Liszt nodded: "Please rest assured."
"Of course we will be careful. Madam, you don't have to worry." The count echoed, and then immediately changed the subject: "Today's schedule seems to be to accompany Mother to watch a farce. Why didn't you go? If you don't want to watch a farce, then invite Mother over and have a chat with Liszt. "
"Mother didn't let me accompany her. She went to the flower market today to pick out potted plants. Recently, she gave away a batch of potted plants as gifts and needed to replenish them."
"She really treats her potted plants as treasures. Apart from the two sprite worms Liszt obtained, no other potted plants have given birth to sprite worms … Right, do the potted plants she gave to Lytton look like they are going to breed sprite worms?" The count said helplessly.
Madam Penélope was obsessed with her potted plants ever since the two potted plants gave birth to the black nightshade sprite worm and the fig sprite worm, believing that the potted plants she took care of were the best gifts for breeding sprite worms.
She only gave potted plants as gifts.
This made many people dissatisfied, believing that the old madam was actually reluctant to spend money. On her birthday, people gave expensive gifts. When it was the turn of others to receive gifts, she only gave potted plants worth a few copper coins or at most a few silver coins.
Liszt smiled at the side.
In any case, he had made a profit.
The three chatted for a while. The atmosphere was not warm, but it was not awkward either. However, they did not have much in common with each other. The count did not want to talk about cultivation, and Liszt did not want to talk about his personal life. Seeing that it was already ten o'clock in the morning, he said, "Father, Madam Marie, I am going out to Coral City to buy a batch of living supplies."
"Go, don't be late for lunch."
"Alright."
…
Buying daily necessities was just an excuse. He didn't need to prepare his own necessities.
He was preparing for the visit of the invisible dragon again. From now on, he had to make preparations to squeeze the invisible dragon dry and obtain the greatest benefits.
"The invisible dragon loves to smell the smoke grass. I need to prepare a smoke grass paradise. It would be best if it is densely packed with smoke grass hay. When ignited at the same time, it will form a grand fireworks stage. I believe the invisible dragon will be intoxicated in the 'fragrance' of the smoke grass and be unable to extricate itself. "
Smoke grass was a specialty of his territory, so he didn't need to worry too much about it.
At most, he would use different methods to extract the taste of the smoke grass — burning the hay to form smoke, mashing the tender grass juice for spraying, and then secretly making some smoke grass paste for spreading on food.
"The food must be beef. I need to prepare several fresh beef cows, adult cows, and calves. Cooked beef must also be braised, pan-fried, deep-fried, boiled, and all kinds of seasonings must be added. The invisible dragon must enjoy the charm of a cow banquet! "
The territory didn't raise beef cows, so he had to buy them from Coral Island's livestock market. He also had to hire a beef chef to help in the territory.
Liszt wrapped his body in his cloak.
After passing through the smelly streets in a low-key manner, he appeared in the Flower Caravan's office in Coral City.
Naturally, he didn't need to buy beef himself. The caravan captain, Harpagon, was listening to his orders: "Various breeds of cattle, as well as a beef chef. Harpagon, this is the most important thing you need to do in the next three days."
"I understand, Sir Lord."
Three days was the preparation time that Liszt had set.
If the time was too short, he wouldn't be able to make sufficient preparations. If the time was too long, he was afraid that the invisible dragon would slip away or visit ahead of time. If it really did visit ahead of time without proper preparations, not only would it cause heavy losses to the territory, but it would also expose the secret of the invisible dragon.
At that time, there would definitely be a lot of trouble.
Therefore, he only gave himself three days to make full preparations: "Harpagon, there is one more thing. Hire a group of chefs who can cook lamb, horse, pork, chicken, and all other meat dishes." Although the invisible dragon liked to eat beef, it didn't mean that it didn't like other meats.
Liszt didn't think that the invisible dragon could survive by eating beef alone.
According to the dragon-raising handbook he obtained from the Bull Marquis' desk, dragons were carnivores. Different dragons liked to eat different foods. Some dragons even ate stones or wood. They seemed to have a picky taste, but most of them liked to eat meat.
The invisible dragon was obviously a carnivore. Beef was recorded in the 《Earth Ranger Griff's Travels》, but there was no guarantee that the invisible dragon didn't eat other meats.
Therefore, Liszt had to prepare rich meat to fill the invisible dragon's stomach and conquer its taste buds.
Not only that.
He also had Harpagon collect all kinds of drinks from the market to serve as a meal drink for the invisible dragon to enjoy. If the invisible dragon got drunk, wouldn't it be … Liszt felt excited just thinking about it.
… …
After lunch at Tulip Castle.
Liszt hurriedly returned to Flower Town and dispatched a large number of smoke grass hay from the warehouse to Black Horse Island. He decided to place the invisible dragon's dining table in the wilderness of Black Horse Island. There were many places on Black Horse Island where serfs were not active, which was very suitable for contact with the invisible dragon.
At the same time, he also had the serfs pull up a large number of new and tender smoke grass, especially the high-quality smoke grass around the cordyceps.
The serfs, wearing thick masks, mashed the tender leaves into juice, sealed them in glass bottles, and transported them to Black Horse Island.
As for Liszt himself, he selected suitable livestock overnight, ready to accept the invisible dragon's magic infection and obtain the dragon's blood.
"The magic of the blood released by the invisible dragon should be very limited. Otherwise, the world would be full of dragon-type creatures, so the number of infected spots would be limited." He pondered.
First of all, there were already dragon-type horses, and the black blood horse race was slowly growing, so there was no need to occupy any spots.
Second, there were already dragon-type cows, but they were few in number. There were only four of them, and they were close relatives, which was not conducive to future reproduction. He could bring two or three pregnant cows to add new dragon-type calves.
Next, poultry such as chickens, ducks, and geese were relatively small and their demand for magic was probably very small. He could choose to bring a batch of female cows together with their hatched eggs.
Then, pork would be the main source of meat in the territory. It was obviously necessary to have a group of dragon-type pigs, so he could bring a few pregnant sows.
Again, he could choose a batch of mallard eggs and bring them over. It would be wonderful if a dragon-type mallard was created.
"Basically, it can be guessed that creatures in the embryonic stage are most likely to be infected by the dragon's blood … so do I need to bring a batch of adult individuals?" He then thought of Dosen and the eight small ones. If he created them into an intermediate dragon species, World of Warcraft, their power would definitely increase greatly.
However, the last time the invisible dragon visited, the adult cows did not evolve into dragon-type cows. It could be seen that the bloodline of the adult creatures had solidified and was difficult to infect.
Stupidwoman was already in reproductive isolation and could no longer give birth, basically cutting off the hope of Dosen's descendants and becoming a dragon.
"Moreover, to turn Tremblingwoods into a Dragon Beast, I am afraid that it will take a lot of blood magic … I have so many species that I need to infect, and I really can't give much magic to Tremblingwoods … Forget it, Tremblingwoods and the others have achieved extraordinary achievements. This time, I will not consider the Blizzard Beast.
