World of Warcraft Murloc City Guide - Chapter 357
c357 war and cooking
War drums rumble in the Barrens.
The Kokar centaur army, led by warchief Hezrul Bloodseal, launched an attack on the crossroads.
The tribal defenders at the crossroads saw the menacing force of the Kokar Centaur army and chose to avoid it, relying on the town’s fortifications to hold on.
Attacking tough battles has never been the first option for centaurs. Their preferred combat method is to use their speed advantage to charge and kill enemies on the plains, coming and going like the wind.
A Cocal vanguard was sent to the front line. They lined up and ran along the defense line at the crossroads, bending their bows and shooting arrows at the defenders as they ran.
The centaur longbow has an extremely long range, and when used by the centaur with amazing arm strength, every sharp arrow it shoots is incredibly powerful.
For a while, arrows rained down like rain, and the defenders fled one after another. They were in a panic. Casualties occurred even if they failed to evade.
Some of the defenders raised their bows to fight back, but the bows and arrows were not as powerful as the centaurs who were good at archery, and were quickly suppressed by the centaurs’ arrow rain.
Kokar’s forward suppressed the counterattack of the defenders at the crossroads, and then switched to rockets. After igniting them, they used the inertia of running forward to throw the rockets into the crossroads.
Rockets fell, black smoke rose from the intersection, and fires broke out in outbuildings.
Under the threat of centaur bows and arrows, no one dared to put out the fire.
The centaurs planned to use fire attacks to force the defenders at the crossroads from their fortifications and then fight on the plains.
At this time, the orc reinforcements from the backwater village arrived.
The Kokar scouts scattered around the periphery immediately discovered the orc reinforcements, and they immediately blew their horns to give a warning.
Hezrul Blood Seal immediately ordered the Kokar forward to give up the attack and regroup.
Seeing the arrival of reinforcements, the orc infantry fought out of the fortifications and attacked the Centaur army from front to back.
The Kokar Centaur army did not panic. After they completed their assembly, they retreated to the northwest, which was the direction leading to the Pool of Oblivion.
This is a well-trained and disciplined centaur army, the most elite force of the Kokar Centaur in the Barrens.
The centaurs ran very fast on the plains, and the orc infantry could not reach them, so they could only follow behind and eat dust.
Hezrul Bloodseal even commanded several small Centaur troops to take turns turning back to shoot the orc infantry behind them while retreating quickly.
The orcs have been fighting centaurs all year round, and they also know the centaurs’ flexible tactics.
The orc infantry who could not catch up with the centaurs stopped their pursuit to prevent the crossroads from being guarded empty and being diverted away from the mountain by the centaurs.
An orc wolf cavalry rushed out from the flank of the orc army. The huge warg mount had a running speed that was not inferior to that of a centaur, and a cavalry pursuit began on the plains.
…
There were beacon fires everywhere outside, and the sound of killing filled the field.
The backwater village was peaceful, and Yang Yi was cooking and enjoying the delicious food in peace.
“The orcs and centaurs are fighting, and we murlocs won’t get involved. If the sky falls, there will be tall people to hold it up, that’s why.” Yang Yi was eating [Herbal Baked Eggs] and [Goblin Mustard Dip Clam Meat] As he thought, these were the second and third cooking recipes he had learned.
The quarrels between the murlocs of Ratchet Town and the Kokal Centaur have long been forged. From the earliest unprovoked attack on Ratchet Village by the Kokal Centaur, to the subsequent attack and defense of Backwater Village, the murlocs of Ratchet Town suffered numerous casualties. . In the book of great hatred written by Benbolba, the hatred he had with the Kokar centaur was recorded in several pages.
“Every one of these vengeances will be settled. Sooner or later, Ratchet Town will have to settle the matter with the Kokal Centaur. Of course, if the orcs can help avenge these grievances, then Ratchet Town will not stop it.” Yang Yi laughed happily. thinking.
The Kokar centaurs have been killing and robbing the Barrens for many years. They have too many enemies, and the Horde Orcs are the strongest among them.
The battle reports between the Kokar Centaur and the Horde Orcs are constantly updated on the forum. Yang Yi is too lazy to read them. He is just waiting for the results now.
Anyway, there are still orc defenders in the backwater village. As long as you observe their reactions, you can get the information immediately.
Yang Yi now only hopes that this battle will be over soon, so that the orcs in Backwater Village can be “invited” away.
After a while, Yang Yi had finished the [herbal baked eggs] and [clam dipped in goblin mustard].
“After eating so many cooked foods, [Herbal Baked Egg] is the most appetizing to me.” Yang Yi was still not satisfied and licked the fish’s lips with his long tongue.
The level 2 murloc chef who taught Yang Yi how to cook was already stunned. The mayor learned three cooking recipes in one day, and he learned them every time on the first try. This was really beyond his big murloc head. imagination ability.
The mayor is so awesome that the fishman chef not only admires him but also admires him.
After eating two delicacies, Yang Yi was still not satisfied. He asked the fishman chef: “You can also make [Delicious Wind Snake], right? Take advantage of your free time and teach me.”
It’s coming, it’s coming.
The fishman chef’s dorsal fins were messy in the wind like a flag blown by the strong wind. The mayor he admired really wanted to learn all the cooking he knew in one day.
The mayor spoke, and the fishman chef certainly obeyed.
He quickly demonstrated how to use [Mutated Fish] and [Sweet Spices] to make [Delicious Wind Snake].
This time he really just demonstrated it once. He didn’t mention a word about the difficulties and points to note during the production process, let alone give a technical summary after finishing it.
[Delicious Wind Snake] is the most difficult recipe for the fishman chef to master, and he secretly hopes that the mayor cannot learn it the first time. He should fail at least once, so that he would feel better.
Yang Yi watched the fishman chef’s process of making [Delicious Wind Snake]. He picked the most ferocious-looking [Mutated Fish] from the fish basket, grabbed a handful of [Sweet Spice], and then started working. .
You can’t, you can’t, you really can’t…
Under the secret prayers of the fishman chef, Yang Yi finished the work quickly.
“Ding! You learned the cooking recipe: Delicious Wind Snake.”
“Ding, the cooking level has been raised to level 2.”
Hearing the sound of lifting, Yang Yi knew that he was successful again.
Looking at the [Delicious Wind Snake] made by himself, Yang Yi picked it up with one hand and threw it into his big mouth.
“Well, the fish meat is a bit woody and the taste is just so-so. Moreover, the surface of the fish is covered with a layer of [sweet spices]. My teeth will turn red after eating it. It is also very sweet. Probably only children like the little fishman’s empty wine barrel will like it. Eat.” Yang Yi didn’t think highly of the taste of [Delicious Wind Snake].
However, the value of [Delicious Wind Snake] does not lie in its taste, but in its magical effects.
Yang Yi swallowed the [Delicious Wind Snake] in his mouth, and the next moment he transformed into a human wearing a skull pirate hat and a blue and white sailor uniform.
“The transformation effect is really good.” Yang Yi looked left and right. The human pirates looked very real. “It’s a pity that the image after transformation is fixed. It either turns into a human pirate or a human assassin. For those who know the situation, when they see the appearance of this human pirate, they know that he has eaten the [Delicious Wind Snake]. But they can’t see my original appearance, at least they can use the transformation as a disguise.”
Seeing Yang Yi transform into a human pirate, the fishman chef knew that the mayor he admired had learned a new recipe again, and it was a level 2 recipe.
The fishman chef collapsed.
Yang Yi looked at the fishman chef with dull eyes, and patted him on the shoulder. “You taught me well. What’s your name?”
“Uh, my name is Chef Ratchet.” The fishman replied in a daze.
As expected, fishmen of this level do not have their own names.
Yang Yi checked with the Lord’s Eye and found that the fishman chef had E-level qualifications and had no expertise.
Such attributes mean that the potential of this fishman chef is very limited. If nothing else, the mid-level chef is his limit, and the probability of becoming a mid-level chef is less than 20%.
“Chef Ratchet is too ordinary. I, my lord, will give you a nickname.” Yang Yi said.
This fishman chef taught him how to cook, so he was also his teacher. Yang Yi decided to give him a nickname that would make it easier to remember.
“The mayor wants to give me a nickname!”
The fishman chef’s eyes that were dull just now suddenly lit up.
What’s the nickname? It’s the “half name” that the little murloc’s empty wine barrel shows off in the backwater village all day long.
“What should I call it?”
Yang Yi looked the murloc chef up and down, and he found that a large piece of the scales on the murloc’s left cheek was red.
“Just call me ‘Red Gill Chef’.” Yang Yi said.
“Chef Redgill, my name is Chef Redgill.” The fishman chef shouted excitedly.
The red-gill chef ran out of the hotel happily and went to show off to other fishmen.
The fish people are all envious.
A fishman asked him why he was called Red Gill Chef. He touched his cheeks with both hands and felt a little red with his left hand. That was because he accidentally stuck the red [Sweet Spices] on it when making [Delicious Wind Snake]. face.
…
Yang Yi learned how to make [Delicious Wind Snake] from Chef Red Gill. After that, he concentrated on making [Delicious Wind Snake] in the hotel. Every time he finished one, he thought about how he had earned a gold coin. This was his biggest achievement. motivation.
The war outside did not end as quickly as Yang Yi expected. Yang Yi stayed in the hotel in the backwater village until dark. A basket of [Mutated Fish] turned into a [Delicious Wind Snake], and news about the war continued to spread. Come.
In this battle with the Kokar centaurs, the mobility of the orc infantry, the main force of the tribe’s orcs, was completely unable to compare with that of the centaurs. Most of the orc infantry are equipped with heavy helmets and armor, and are very powerful in close combat. But when they encountered the centaur archers, they couldn’t catch up and they could only serve as targets.
Among the orc army, only the wolf cavalry riding giant wargs could compete with the centaurs in terms of mobility, so this battle became a cavalry showdown between the orc wolf cavalry and the Kokar centaur.
The Kokar centaur archers escaped while shooting arrows at the orc wolf cavalry who were pursuing behind them.
This tactic is the Centaur’s special skill. The essence lies in continuously attacking the enemy from a long distance without giving the enemy a chance to fight back. Under such an attack, as long as the enemy’s spirit is not so strong, or the enemy’s armor is not so thick, it will not last long before it completely collapses.
This tactic makes the Kokar centaur invincible, and is what allows the centaur family to wreak havoc in the barren land for so many years.
Orc wolf cavalry has always been known for their strong will and good training. Those who can be selected as wolf cavalry are the best among orc soldiers. During the pursuit, some orc wolf cavalrymen were constantly shot by sharp arrows and fell off the backs of the wargs, but the orc wolf cavalry team did not cause chaos.
Especially the elite wolf cavalry known as predators. Not only are they well-equipped, but the swift wargs under their crotches are as fast as the wind.
The orc raiders caught up with the Kokar Centaurs in a hail of arrows. They threw out a large rope net while running, [trapping] the Centaurs that fell behind, and then the orc wolf riders who followed closely rushed up and strangled them.
On the barren plains of the Barren Land, this pursuit lasted until dark.
