Chapter 271 Blue Howling Rabbit
“Bennett, Mother sent the elves to the known magic pit to find Blue howling rabbit for this banquet. She didn’t arrange it for my birthday!” Carrie said with a hint of jealousy in her voice.
“Your Excellency, thank you very much for your arrangement!” Abel felt the love of Grand Duke Edwina and could not help but bowed to thank her.
“As long as you treat my daughter well,” Duke Albert said before Grand Duke Edwina answered, “I have got to thank you again, though. If it wasn’t for you, we would’ve never had the chance to eat the blue howling rabbit again!”
Duke Albert deliberately said it as loudly as he could. As noisy as it was, the nearby druids and practiced nobles could all hear what he was saying. Some of them were looking at each other, but nobody was saying anything. The word was starting to spread out, so it seemed.
Grand Duke Edwina shook her head when she saw this. Duke Albert wasn’t the type to read the situation. Yet, this was the reason she was attracted to him in the first place.
“We are just about to finish roasting the howling blue rabbits, Master. Please, have a seat in the dining room,” Grand Duke butler Derek said as he bowed to Grand Duke Edwina.
In the middle of the banquet hall, twenty roasted blue howling rabbits were placed separately in twenty plates. Their surfaces were roasted to a golden brown, oil sliding with a mouth-watering smell.
“Bennett, pick one first and try your luck!” Said Grand Duke Edwina, smiling at Abel.
“Try my luck?” Abel didn’t understand what she meant, because Grand Duke Edwina just said that these blue howling rabbits were to be eaten by all the elves on the scene. There weren’t enough blue howling rabbits to share with the elves in the scene, so it was impossible to give him a whole one.
“Lord Bennett, master meant that you choose a blue howling rabbit first. Because these blue howling rabbits are spirit beasts, and they may have a crystal core. These are spirit beast that has just been killed. Crystal is helpful for the practice because today is your welcome banquet, traditionally you have the first choice! “Derek explained softly.
After hearing Derek’s explanation, Abel stepped forward and pointed at a blue howling rabbit and said to Grand Duke Edwina, “I want this one.”
Grand Duke Edwina nodded to the elf waiter. An elf waiter stepped forward and took out a dagger with a cold light, cut it obliquely on the skull of the blue howling rabbit that Abel just chose. This elf waiter was experienced, the knife was cut just above the seam of the skull, then the dagger turned, and the upper half of the skull was opened along the seam.
“Congratulations, Lord Bennett, you’ve chosen a blue howling rabbit with a crystal core!” The elf waiter picked the soft crystal core from the blue howling rabbit’s skull with a dagger, placed it on a plate, and passed it to Abel.
“Bennett, you will be very lucky today!” Grand Duke Edwina said to Abel with a smile, and the elves beside him congratulated.
It was less than half an hour after the crystal core had just taken out. Abel was not in a hurry to use it, but he was waiting for the actual meal “blue howling rabbit” in the banquet. Grand Duke Edwina, Duke Albert, and Lady Carrie had chosen blue howling rabbits, but a crystal core never appeared again.
The next step was selecting distinguished elves from the guests presented. It doesn’t matter whether the crystal cores were obtained or not. The important thing was the laughter and cheers sounded from time to time during the banquet. The atmosphere reached a peak in a short period.
Abel was divided a rabbit’s leg of a blue howling rabbit, cut a small piece with a knife, and put this rabbit meat in his mouth with a fork. An indescribable taste conquered his taste buds immediately. He understood why it was called the best dish in the Double Moon forest.
The color and smell were strong, soft and tender, and the aftertaste was endless. No adjective could fully express the kind of rabbit meat. After Abel took a bite of blue howling rabbit meat, he felt a lingering scent in his mouth, a piece of blue howling rabbit just disappeared from the plate quickly.
Abel glanced at the empty dinner plate with some interest, thinking about how wonderful it would be if he could raise this blue howling rabbit and eat this kind of food frequently.
Suddenly he thought about the breeding conditions of the blue howling rabbit. Maybe he could make an environment to fully met these conditions. There was a kind of grass generated in the magic environment. It could be seen everywhere in Blood Moor. That was not a problem to grew in the magic place. In Rogue’s encampment, or in the entire dark world, the magic was richer than ordinary magic towers. If he could raise such a blue howler rabbit, then he could have collected crystal cores stably.
Abel’s heart was fiery for a while, and this idea seemed very feasible. Perhaps asking Grand Duke butler Derek would be helpful because he should be very familiar with these.
It could be seen that the meal of blue howling rabbit meat made all the elves have an endless aftertaste. Many elves shared these twenty blue howling rabbits, which made all the elves difficult to feel satisfied.
“Derek, do you know where to know how elves bred the blue howling rabbit?” Abel asked Grand Duke butler Derek when he got a chance.
“Lord Bennett, you must be addicted to the blue howling rabbit meat!” Derek said. He understood Abel.
“Yes, this blue howling rabbit meat was really delicious. Do any elves know how to breed them?” Abel asked again.
“There is not much research of breeding blue howling rabbits among ordinary elves. There may be attempts to raise them among druids. If you need, I can check for you through the Grand Duke’s Palace!” Derek was very enthusiastic and said that he knew Abel’s identity, which is Grand Duke’s family. Although Abel’s idea was a bit ridiculous, as long as he proposed it, he would find a way to provide him with correspondences.
“Derek, thanks for your help!” Abel took out two bottles of blue-quality “elven perfume” from the portal bag and handed it over.
“Thank you for your reward, Lord Bennett!”
Derek knew what Abel had handed over, and the blue-quality ‘elven perfume’ in the Grand Duke Palace was issued from him, but he could not obtain this kind of high-end druid’s cultivation potion. Derek also had kids, so the two bottles of blue-quality “elven perfume” were great gifts. If they sent others as gifts, it might not be a problem for them to find a good teacher for his children.
“Lord Bennett, Grand Duke Edwina had just ordered you to use the crystal core you got immediately, so I arranged a place for you to live. I will take you there!” Derek put away the “elven perfume”, and then bowed.
Abel came back to the courtyard where he lived. Abel’s butler, Brewer, was waiting here. With Brewer’s care, Abel enjoyed the same service as in his villa. At this time, the crystal core had put for an hour. If he still didn’t use it, it might solidify.
Abel opened the defense circle and set the mana gathering circle. He sat in the center of the mana gathering circle and threw the fresh crystal core of the blue howling rabbit into his mouth, and then he started meditation practice. That familiar sense of acceleration was back. Although there was not as much magic in Rogue’s encampment, fresh crystal core had made him very satisfied.
The only problem was that the crystal core from the blue howling rabbit was much smaller than those from the spirit beasts that Abel took before, and the energy contained in it was much less. However, it would not be a problem, as if he solved the problem of breeding the blue howling rabbit. As long as there were enough fresh crystal cores, he could use Horadric Cube to synthesize a higher level of fresh crystal cores and even synthesize the top crystal cores was not a problem.
After the meditation, Abel had been thinking about the problem of breeding the blue howling rabbit. He believed that he would not be the only one who had this idea. There must be other elves who also had the same idea as him. As long as he had others’ experiences, then it would not be a problem to raise a blue howling rabbit in the dark world with enough magic and countless grasses growing in the magic environment.
