The drinks are mass-market and not exactly high-end, but they have one unique feature: each sip delivers a burst of speed.
[Silent acceleration is my footsteps, running on the road in sight~] Wow, this bite made my little tentacles a little dizzy.
[This isn't even alcohol, why are you so intoxicated! You're so drunk you can even sing such an old song!]
Qin Yiyi poured a large bowl of lemonade with ice and placed it in a huge basin. Several tentacles lowered their heads and took a sip.
[It's a bit addictive!]
Other tentacle monsters appeared one after another from behind Qin Yiyi, surrounding the large basin and lowering their heads to take a sip.
Why am I a little drunk?
【Wow, Miss Yiyi, is this rum in it? Or is it baijiu?】
Qin Yiyi couldn't believe it. These fierce little tentacles, some of which were even older than her, could get drunk just from drinking a glass of lemonade?
Lemon water has such an effect on tiny tentacles?
Qin Yiyi glanced at Kraken, who was eating a roujiamo (Chinese hamburger) outside, rolled her eyes, and took out three glasses of lemonade.
"Here, did you choke on your roujiamo? Have a sip of water. I just made some lemonade, and it increases your speed by one sip, but it doesn't stack. How about you guys try it?"
How did the little tentacle get knocked out with just one or two sips of the lemonade she made? Was it the little tentacle's fault or the lemonade's? The answer will be revealed soon.
Kraken has absolutely no resistance to food; he chugs down two mouthfuls of lemonade without any reaction whatsoever.
Qin Yiyi nodded. It seemed that the main body and the tentacles were indeed different. Then she looked at Sid drinking water, eating a roujiamo (Chinese hamburger) and drinking lemonade in one bite. Not to mention the white tiger.
Qin Yiyi went back to the kitchen and took out a bottle of rum.
"Adding some rum will make the flavor even purer; perhaps we can even create a drink with enhanced properties!"
While the two men and the tiger were eating their bread, she added a little rum. Kraken didn't even notice; he had absolute trust in his slave owner when it came to food.
He burped.
Then he took a sip of lemonade with rum, and then collapsed and didn't wake up.
Qin Yiyi looked at the Kraken's main body, which lay unconscious on the ground, and then at the Kraken's tentacles sleeping next to the basin.
I take back what I just said about the original body being different.
The main body and tentacles are almost identical.
Looking at Sid again, his face was flushed. Qin Yiyi smiled and added another large glass of strong liquor. Sid collapsed, and then the White Tiger, who had fought three times, turned out to be the one with the best alcohol tolerance.
Really... ha... indeed, men are the most useless things.
Especially the Kraken's tentacles!
After Qin Yiyi's experiment, she found that the lemon water did not contain any special alcohol that would make people sleepy; it was simply because the tentacles living on the seabed had never seen anything like it before.
Even when eating, the Kraken eats first, and only after they've had their fill are these tentacles allowed to have a little soup.
Poor thing~
Qin Yiyi packed the roujiamo (Chinese hamburger) and drinks, and then skillfully made seaweed rice rolls and other dishes.
She looked at the two people lying haphazardly in the yard, and then at the big white tiger stepping on them without any reaction. Then, she confidently ate the few remaining steamed buns in their baskets, licked the meat clean, and even finished the green peppers.
It seems that the white tiger not only has an amazing capacity for alcohol, but is also not picky about food.
It's a premature baby, a well-behaved one.
One more day, just one more day until we reach the Eternal City.
But for some reason, she had a different feeling inside her. A voice inside her kept telling her to make more food, to make more food.
She touched her heart; thump, thump~
Looking at the snow-white flour beside her, she knew she had to make another batch.
***
For some reason, the idea of making more and stockpiling more popped into my head, but it seemed to be fate.
Meanwhile, within the Eternal City, the Eternal Prince received the message. His eyes gleamed, and he silently pressed the message to prepare in advance.
The very next day, he selected a huge square for the Black Rose Auction House as a temporary auction venue.
Looking at the reply, Nishikawa respectfully said to Lilith, "Miss, the Eternal Duke has suppressed our information!"
Lilith chuckled: "He doesn't have any bad intentions. I passed it on to him in advance just to do him a favor. He just wanted to have more control over the situation!"
To put it bluntly, they just want to cash out and organize their assets in advance so they can exchange them for the food they want later.
How could she not understand such a subtle thought?
"The gifts from the royal city are over. Now we await the prince's reaction. He will surely go to the Eternal City for the sake of his beloved youngest son!"
Nishikawa asked softly, "Your Highness, will you go in person?"
Lilith didn't answer, but simply took small sips of tea from the cup beside her.
"I don't really like these purple grapes. Just because I often entertain guests doesn't mean I personally like them. Please don't serve me these for afternoon tea anymore!"
Nishikawa nodded: "We've changed staff in the kitchen, and they're not quite familiar with your tastes yet. I'll take care of it, and I promise it won't happen again!"
A proper butler went downstairs.
Before leaving, he bowed and whispered in Lilith's ear, "The Black Rose family presented a gift to the Prince, and while looking at the Prince's eldest son, I said a few extra words, and the news inadvertently leaked out. I hope the family head will not blame me!"
Lilith is now the master of Xichuan, and also the Earl of Black Rose, the head of the Black Rose family.
Her current move is to target the Flame Prince.
After all, she already knew what the Flame Prince had done. Since she had chosen the Flame Prince over the Night Qin Earl, she had to strike first.
I'm sure more than one person would be happy to see chaos in the Flame Prince's household.
Isn't that right?
At the very least, the eldest son of the Flame Prince's family wasn't as calm as one might expect after hearing the news, was he?
After waiting so many years for this opportunity, how hard it must have been.
He will make sure the Flame Prince goes to the Eternal City in person, no matter what.
"Three days from now, I need to announce this to the four pillars of the empire, especially the Grand Duchess of Atlantis."
These two have been at odds for quite some time now.
With the disappearance of Earl of Night Qin, the original dukedom of Atlantis passed the throne to its only beloved daughter, the current Grand Duchess.
Grand Duchess Charlotte.
Of the four existing pillars, the Titans will definitely support her, and she supports Qin Yiyi. The Eternal Duke's attitude is already somewhat biased. As for Grand Duchess Charlotte, as long as she knows whose sister Qin Yiyi is, she will definitely give her a helping hand and will be an absolute ally for Qin Yiyi.
All that remains is to gain the support of Sky City, which will then provide assistance from the four pillars of the empire.
