Chapter 5: Breakfast can also increase devotion?!

It's just dawn and the night has not completely faded away.

The assembly bell rang throughout the outpost, and there was a sudden noise and confusion in the soldiers' general store.

Some people haven't had enough sleep yet and open their eyes in confusion.

Lailan was sleepy-eyed and was also woken up by everyone's movements. He was too excited after the lottery last night. He tossed and turned and couldn't fall asleep. He tossed and turned on the bed for a while before falling asleep.

Hearing the morning assembly bell at the outpost, Lailan quickly put on his military uniform, put on his leather boots and walked out of the Chase Shop.

He got up quite early, and the assembly bell would still ring for a while, so there was no need to rush there. Taking advantage of this free time, Lailan prioritized his personal hygiene.

"Good morning, Brother Lailan, did you sleep well last night?" Lailan was bending over to wash his face when Raven and two new recruits came over and said hello.

After reaching out and rubbing vigorously to dry the water on his face, Lailan stood up and said, "Good morning, my shoulders are a little sore and I didn't sleep well."

He raised his eyebrows and asked, "What about you? You received 10 military sticks. You didn't sleep well last night."

"Don't mention it. The place where I was hit with the military stick hurt for a long time yesterday. I couldn't sleep and rolled around on the bed. It won't be better in two months. My body is not as strong as Brother Laileng. Beating those soldiers is like beating a chicken.

Baby." Raven shrugged.

It hurts so much that you can't sleep and you snore the loudest?

Lailan chuckled, "Eat more food, work more, you will be stronger, and no one will dare to bully you in the future."

"Well, Brother Lelen is right."

The recruit on the side smiled and said nothing.

Raven thought of something and said to Lailen: "Brother Lailen, I heard from Abate and the other veterans that the tasks assigned to you today have been reduced a lot. It seems that you only need to chop wood, and other things have been left to others."

To make yourself do less things? It seems that what happened yesterday left a deep impression on Tokar, and he didn't dare to stumble openly, but that doesn't mean he did anything secretly.

Lailan said casually: "I will do whatever is assigned. They used to bully recruits, but this time they are defensive and don't dare to put more pressure on us."

"Assemble! Assemble! Come here!" Someone shouted loudly from the top of the sentry tower.

"Let's go." Lailan waved and strode over, followed by Raven and others.

As usual, the outpost officer Tokar put on his armor and stood on the platform in front of the outpost tower.

The 23 soldiers at Berg Outpost lined up in three rows, with only three pioneer cavalry in the front row, sword and shield soldiers and spearmen in the second row, and crossbowmen and logistics soldiers in the last row.

Toca stood on the platform with his hands behind his back, habitually glancing down in a circle, and his gloomy eyes stayed on Lailan for a second.

When the soldiers who rang the assembly bell on the guard tower hurried down and stood in the queue, Toca cleared his throat and said loudly: "I heard you all clearly! This week's patrol is in rotation, the second team replaces the first team!"

"Leave it to Colo to feed the horses, clean the stables and clean the latrines, and Malan will be responsible! You two must clean the stables and latrines today! If there is any dirt, eat it in public!"

The two people named were both soldiers who usually hung out with Maz. Toca threw the dirty work that Lailen had done in the past to them, obviously intending to use them to vent the anger in his heart yesterday.

Cacolo and Malan looked at each other with bitter faces, but did not dare to express resentment and had no choice but to hang their heads.

"Others' tasks remain unchanged! All work for me after breakfast! Disband!" After saying the last sentence, Toca gave Lailan a hard look, then turned and left.

The soldiers dispersed and went to the kitchen to have breakfast.

Several soldiers gathered together and did not dare to look at Lailan, but walked away quickly. Seeing this scene, the other soldiers only felt angry and pointed at them and made fun of them.

Lailan looked calm and walked quickly to the kitchen without caring about the eyes of others.

The logistics soldier who was in charge of preparing meals today took extra care of Lailan and gave him two pieces of brown bread and a baked potato as if to please him.

The other soldiers only had at most a spoonful of stew, but Lailan's was so full that it almost overflowed the edge of the bowl, with two small pieces of stew on top.

The eating habits of the people in the Empire are more similar to those of the Middle Ages. There are few types of food and the cooking methods are very monotonous. Vegetables are either made into salads or boiled in pots to make stews. It is normal for ordinary people not to eat a meal of meat for two or three days.

.

The several old old tables and benches in the kitchen have been used for many years, and some places have been patinated and smoothed.

Lairon sat down in the corner near the door with a big bowl and brown bread baked potatoes.

Yesterday morning at dinner, there were people standing in front of Lailan, saying that he had stolen someone else's seat. Today, they were all smiling, and the look in their eyes could make Lailan's skin crawl.

There was a plate of sour bamboo shoots on the table, which was pungent but very appetizing.

The electorate principalities in the northern part of the empire would pickle food, and sour bamboo shoots were considered a homely side dish. From the electorate down to the poor people in the deep forests, there would be several pickles on the table.

After putting down the big bowl, Lailan remembered that he didn't take the spoon with him. Raven suddenly came out and sat across from the long table, and handed Lailan a spoon.

Raven smiled and said: "Brother Lailen, I saw that you didn't take the spoon, so I took the handle for you."

"Thank you." Lailan smiled. Raven was one of the few who could talk to him, and three recruits sat beside them.

Looking at their half-full bowls of stew and a piece of black bread, Lei Wen was smacking his lips and eating happily, not letting go of a trace of the soup.

Outposts are in short supply of supplies, and the soldiers' daily meals have shrunk a lot. They used to be able to eat eighty cents full, but now this amount is a drop in the bucket.

Lairon stood up, broke his two pieces of black bread into several portions, and distributed them one by one along the edge of the long table.

He brought two more bowls over, divided out most of the full stew, and handed two pieces of meat to the middle of the long table.

The recruits looked at the brown bread beside the bowl, stopped chewing one after another, and looked up at Lailan one by one.

"Brother Lailen, what are you doing?" Raven blinked and licked his lips.

Lailan raised the corner of his mouth and said helplessly: "I can't eat so much by myself, so I'll share it together to avoid wasting it."

Seeing that everyone was just staring at the two bowls of stew that had been distributed, and no one took the initiative to move a spoon, Lailan urged: "Eat quickly, we have a mission later."

Raven was very happy, picked up the piece of black bread beside the bowl, and said with a smile: "Thank you, Brother Lailen! You're welcome then." He picked up the stew in the bowl like a storm, and took a few spoonfuls from the middle bowl.

.

Seeing someone taking the lead, the others all said, "Thank you, Brother Lailen!"

The soldiers at the long tables around them couldn't help but get greedy when they saw the stews and stews being distributed, but they didn't have the nerve to come over.

[System prompt: +4 points of devotion]

Can this also increase devotion? Lailan was a little surprised.

Last night, Raven and the three of them added 3 points of devotion to themselves, and it was triggered again today, which means that the devotion points can be obtained from one person repeatedly.

You don't need 50 people. As long as a few recruits "revere" you several times, you can increase your piety points.

Now the devotion value has reached 7 points, and there are still 43 points left to obtain the devotion reward.

It's such a good thing to share food, Lailan can't hold his mouth shut, this breakfast is worth a lot of money.
