Chapter 966: Different drinking ethics, same tragedy

After hiding in a corner for a while, gradually, seeing that nothing new happened, many eyes turned away from us one after another, and the bar resumed its chaotic hustle and bustle, with the constant sound of hammering tables and clattering glasses.

"Two glasses of fruit wine, thank you."

After taking it upon myself to order a glass of fruit wine for the dirty maid, I strained my ears and listened to the sounds in the noisiest area of ​​the bar. In the noise mixed with the voices of various professions, some useful information was filtered out

, passed into my ears.

"Hey, have you heard? Something terrible seems to have happened to the elves a few days ago."

"Ha, your information is too backward. Who doesn't know about this now?"

"Really? I heard they choked a lot. Those poor guys were disgraced by the mutation incident."

"Isn't it? Who told those pointed ears to take over everything? Damn it. I heard that the four areas of the camp, Lugaoin, Demon Fortress and Harrogas are all under the responsibility of our alliance. Why is it only Kula?

But I left Ste to them? I also want to show off my skills!!"

"You? Just let it go. Do you think the elves are sending weak hands? I heard that there are more than ten pseudo-domain-level masters who can't withstand this mutation event. Just you, go deliver the food.

"

"What did you say?! Good boy, if you have the ability, go to the ring and try a few tricks to see who is the best!!"

"..."

Ignoring these two quarreling adventurers, I paid and left the bar. Their conversation really surprised me. I didn’t expect that the noise caused by the Hell Knights a few days ago would spread to the Alliance so quickly. It should be

It's a good thing, at least it proves that there are more exchanges between the two races. In the past, the entire main elf city would have been bombed to the ground, and these adventurers might not be able to know the news in another month.

On the other side, there is a lot of news about the huge wetland, the peeling forest, and the ancient Kurast ruins, but most of them are vague rumors with no reliable basis, especially since many of the contents are from barbaric sources.

If it comes from people's mouths, the credibility will be even more compromised.

Now I finally understand why Charlie, a seemingly sane person, would be confused by the extremely suspicious news that Arbuckle asked about, "It is said that Spider Lair mage equipment has a higher explosion rate." No wonder he, in a place like a bar

It is an information explosion point. If you come here deliberately to inquire about information, I guarantee that within a short time, you will be overwhelmed by countless true and false rumors.

"By the way, have you heard any new news? It's the news that the alliance just issued urgently a few days ago. It is said that even ordinary monsters must be vigilant now to ensure that they may mutate."

At this time, the sound of discussion at a table caught my attention. Listening to this, it should be the news I asked Charlie and the others to bring back a few days ago.

"Haha, you didn't know this, right? This news had already spread before the alliance issued an emergency notice."

Another proud voice came over.

"Oh, you also know? At first I thought it was the bastard Abak who was bragging again, but I didn't expect that after noon, the alliance issued the same emergency notice."

This is the voice of a third insider.

"What the hell is going on? Why don't we let people go out to practice?" the first voice complained.

"That's what you say, but haven't you heard of anyone encountering this kind of thing yet? Even the mutation incident that was reported at the beginning of the alliance, few people have encountered it now."

"Yes, I heard that Azak's team encountered an ordinary fallen demon from the third world. Their captain was so proud that he ran back with the fallen demon's head and showed off in the Adventurer's Paradise.

I walked around several times, as if I was afraid that others wouldn’t know.”

"Grandma, it's just good luck. If we encounter it, let alone an ordinary-level one, it will still take down even a boss elite."

"The elites are a bit..."

"What's wrong? Essek, I've told you so many times that it's not okay to have no self-confidence like this. You have to have the momentum to behead Bosu even if he comes, hahahahaha~~~~~"

As soon as he finished speaking, the owner of the voice was immediately despised by everyone who heard him. Who is Hoshio Bisu? He is a domain-level lord, and his strength is second only to the Demon King. Even if you come alone, you will not be able to do anything.

Hundreds of people rush forward to deliver food instead of looking in the mirror to see their own morality.

When I heard this, I knew that Team Strasto had overfulfilled the task. It was worthy of the loud voice of a barbarian. Arbuckle, you have done a great job.

Apart from this, I haven't been able to find out other information. It's not that there is none, but there are too many. It's hard to tell the truth from the false. Here it is said that there is a strange incident in the sewer of Kurast, and it is suspected that the sneaking water monster has four legs.

Climbing out of the water, they said that Trevank's council members had returned to their beetle nature and could flap their wings and shells on their backs to fly. Damn me, didn't you say Mephisto had long legs?

After being bombarded by a wave of wild rumors, I pressed my temples with my head in a daze. When I turned around, I suddenly found Jeluka staring blankly at the fruit wine in her hand, in a daze.

It's strange that this pornographic maid was quiet for so long, and she didn't say anything pornographic for half an hour.

I had a sudden thought and put on a defensive posture - this guy couldn't be accumulating energy to use more moves. Look at her face flushing, as if she was drunk...

As if drunk?

Huh?!!

Wait, this might be a trap, so you have to deal with it carefully.

A flash of inspiration passed through my mind. I pushed the frame on the bridge of my nose (imaginary), closed my eyes and took three deep breaths. Then my eyes suddenly opened, and my eyes transformed into a reinforced titanium alloy dog-eye posture and radiated two beams.

The light fell on Jeluka's pretty, red face.

Didi, scanning...10%...70%...99%...Scanning completed, the probability of being drunk is as high as 99.99%.

I said, this is fruit wine, a sweet fruit wine that is okay even for children. Could it be said that... the wines of this dirty maid and sister Sharna are on the same level?

I carefully reached out my hand and gently swayed it back and forth between the green fruit wine and Jeluka's eyes.

"..."

Raising her head, Jeluka looked at me, the harasser, with unfocused and confused eyes.

"Jeluka, are you... okay?"

"Hiccup, where...is this?"

Jeluka looked around with drunken eyes.

"..."

Sorry, I asked nonsense.

"Here...where is it...so many people...so noisy...so scary? Could it be that...I was abducted? I was abducted to a strange place? Wuwu~~~Kalujie...Where are you? Don't

Leave me alone, wuwu~~~"

After obtaining the information about the surrounding environment, Jeluka suddenly started to tremble like a timid sparrow. She hugged her knees, her petite and exquisite body shrank into the chair, and buried her head deeply.

, as if he wanted to completely isolate himself from this noisy and terrifying space.

Uh...what happened? It seems that I have seen this situation once before, that is, when the flag incident happened, I pushed Jeluka down and hit her chest...Wait, let me explain in advance, these are all accidents, in short

, the timid expression on Jeluka’s face at that time was very similar to now.

Although what happened in front of me is enough to be described with the word supernatural, in any case, it is great that it is not the demolition worker mode like Sister Sharna who transformed into a catchphrase for her brother Zi with unknown meaning. Otherwise, Jeluka

At least he has the strength to be above the advanced level in the pseudo field. If he imitates Sister Sharna's drinking skills, then this bar will definitely be ruined, and even the adventurers inside will suffer.

In short, let's take Jeluka back first. A drunk pseudo-field master is like a time bomb, although she seems very calm now, even a little too calm.

"Well, Jeluka, let's go back."

I stood up and stretched out my hand to Jeluka.

"Go back to...where? What do you want to do? Don't come here, wuwu, someone come and save me..."

She raised her head slightly and showed a timid and fearful look here. Looking at my stretched out hand, Jeluka suddenly stepped back in panic, but she forgot that she was curled up on the chair. Such an action caused the result to snap.

With a loud sound, she and the chair leaned back together, and she fell over like a master.

"Sure enough... is he really a bad guy? Kaluge, where are you? Come and save me quickly, woo woo woo~~~"

While rubbing the back of her head that was lying on the ground, Jeluka looked around with helpless crystal tears, looking for traces of her sister who could not exist at all.

"you……"

I was dumbfounded and was about to speak when I suddenly noticed that the light around me dimmed.

At some point, a group of tall adventurers, including some giant-like barbarians, lined up in a row with their arms crossed and surrounded me with a ferocious look.

"I've been suspicious since just now."

A barbarian with red eyes said, spraying foam at the mouth.

"How could such a good thing happen in this world? To bring a beautiful elf maid to the bar is so enviable... No, it should make people suspicious!!"

"..."

Dude, you are just jealous.

"Yes, yes, how can such a cloaked man who exudes suspicion have such a beautiful elf maid following him?"

Hey, this has risen to the point of attacking the bastard in life. Why are you insulting the cloak like this? What exactly did the cloak offend you? Even if there is a mistake, it is not the fault of the cloak. It is the world that is wrong.

"Sure enough, heroes see the same thing. I started to feel something was wrong from the first moment the two of them walked in."

Crowd C, who was slightly suspicious of the injustice on the road, stood up and showed a deep and wise look.

"Tell me, you man in a cloak, where did you kidnap such a beautiful elf? We are going too... Ahem, no, we want to punish you on behalf of the alliance, on behalf of justice, and on behalf of the moon."

The voices of people who saw injustice on the road were loud and clear, and they seemed to be filled with righteous denunciations, but it was a pity that they had already leaked their words.

"Brother, it's not too late to turn back now. Release the person quickly. Being chased by elves is not a fun thing."

Seeing the injustice on the road, the people in the crowd started to show off their faces. He looked like someone who had done this before and was hunted down. He patted me on the shoulder in a meaningful and heartfelt manner, almost not sealing the leniency of his confession on his face.
