Chapter 12: You Never Walk Alone

It was dark at night, and Sonia, who looked a little more energetic than she had been in the afternoon, sat at the dining table with what looked like two invisible dog tails wagging behind them.

Local specialties are placed on the table, and after a simple baking and heating, the aroma is overwhelming.

Sonia wrinkled her nose and closed her eyes, full of intoxication.

She was hungry from an afternoon's exertion, and embarrassed sounds came from her abdomen.

Melina manipulates the bottles with magic factor, causing them to deftly perform a tap dance on the tabletop before pouring out the contents of the bottle herself.

"Thanks, thick rice."

Sonia habitually pressed her index and middle fingers together and tapped the countertop in front of the wine glass.

The three of them were stunned.

A laugh ensued. Maria is a demure-looking blonde girl, but she laughs like crazy. She pointed at Sonia, "So, your identity as a morning tea person has been exposed." ”

Sonia, who had changed into a knight's armor, was dressed in a black and purple overskirt, and her long black hair was untied and draped over her shoulders, looking like a lady.

"What's wrong with drinking tea."

She was full of words:

"My grandmother is in her nineties and still drinks morning tea every day..."

As he spoke, he was silent.

Everyone paused, each with something on their minds.

"One has to look forward." Melina thought of her family, and the corners of her mouth pressed down uncontrollably, naturally pulling out a melancholy expression. ”

"Hmmβ€”" Maria replied weakly as she looked at her glass, not knowing what she was thinking.

Sonia smiled a little melancholy, holding her face with one hand:

"You too?"

Melina used her cruel sense of humor: "No way, you can't find someone who has no father and no mother every time, right?" ”

Maria patted her thigh lightly, revealing a smile that was more bitter than happy:

"That's right, and occasionally people like us have to do it! It can't always be them. ”

Sonia held up a glass full of low-alcohol drinks and shouted:

"I respect the traveler who has a car and a house, healthy parents, all brothers and sisters, and grandparents who live a long life!"

Melina clinks glasses with her, and clinks glasses with Maria:

"My dear colleague handled the luxury car crash incident for my parents!"

Maria asked curiously, "You were hit by a luxury car?" ”

"Yes."

"Your colleague?"

Melina smiled bitterly: "I work in a law firm. ”

Maria coughed and gave a thumbs up: "Ruthless enough." ”

She raised her glass and touched Sonia.

In her little tongue accent, she said:

"May there be no high-voltage electricity in the other world, may the other world give a hope and signal to go home, and may the traverser never be lonely and never walk alone!"

Then she sang loudly: "Your dreams may be shattered, but with the hope in your heart, you will never walk alone......"

Everyone was so happy.

At least this meeting will be happy, without the strangeness of being alone in a foreign country.

Sonia taps the dishes with a spoon.

Melina raised her head and drank the wine, and the spicy taste ran down her throat, making people want to cry. Did she cry? Not necessarily, because she would never be alone these days.

Hamlet's local specialty, Dagon's noodles, has no noodle elements at all, the outside is a crispy octopus, wrapped in green and red peppers, glutinous rice, and fried rice made of roast meat.

Hydra Marsh, an extra-thick fish soup, is not meant to be drunk, but to be dipped in bread. The rich and fragrant fish soup is mixed with amazing protein and nutrients, and even the red feather dragon has gout in one bite!

Although I was reluctant to admit it, the meal was indeed much better than Melina's own cooking.

It seems that because the materials are not so tight, the people of this world can not consider less oil and less season......ing when cooking, but it is a little unstable, maybe the gatherers brought back yesterday are all meat, so eat the whole meat feast, and today the gatherers bring back all the fish, so eat the whole fish feast. Although it is only a theoretical situation, the natives rarely stock up on food, and only the rat people do it.

After eating, Melina needs to tidy up her room, and Sonia and Maria take some samples from her for test strips.

She has too much magic factor, and she must choose her weapon carefully.

The senior sister said that the reason why she was a sword sister was because of the decline in her magic factor caused by her subsequent unhealth, so she became a six-sword sword sister, and later degenerated into a five-sword sword sister and stabilized. Now that she's completely healthy, the experience of the week can't be applied directly, and she has to be tested.

Samples taken are mainly saliva and blood.

The amount requested is not much.

After completing the collection, the two of them excitedly went straight to the alchemy studio on the first floor, and the second floor was left to Melina to pack her luggage first.

Before packing her luggage, Melina also sent the alchemy potion to repel mosquitoes to the Echo team.

…

Her body was a little sore, and Melina rubbed her eyes and yawned

Drinking alcohol still has a negative effect on manipulating the magic factor.

She originally wanted to replenish the alchemy potion, but there was no way in this state, so she had to take a shower first, change into dry pajamas, and go to replenish the alchemy potion when she was awake after the bath.

There were no materials in the alchemy workshop on the second floor, but she brought her own.

Presence Vanishing Potion.

The main materials are Shadow Dragon's dragon scale grinding powder and black gemstone grinding powder, and the secondary materials are common tree roots, spider feet, and crow beaks.

The effect is that after drinking it out, the magic factors within four meters around it will mimic the factor ranking of no man's land, so as to achieve the elimination of the sense of presence in a certain state. This time she's fed up with a small group of people playing one-two-three wooden people, if it weren't for her going crazy, then everyone might just come back now...

Although the Akabane Dragon is scary, every professional explorer has the potential to be undefeated and triple crowned in the one-two-three wooden man project.

With this in mind, she unscrewed the valve of the alchemy cauldron.

Whewβ€”blue flames came out.

Gurgling – Pour plenty of water into it.

Goo Bo - Put the auxiliary materials first to avoid the already poor economy from worsening.

Crackle - Banshees with a strong magic factor can grind dragon scales and black gems with their bare hands.

……

Zi - I am a senior sister!

Melina looked at the whole pot of potions, smug and proud. This potion is not easy, and it is her ability to do it well in one go. Next, you only need to wait for the impurities in the potion to precipitate, take out the liquid medicine above, and finally mix it with water according to the proportion.

At this time, a somewhat hoarse female voice came from the door: "Excellent harmony." ”

Melina turned her head and saw Maria, who was exuding a strong feminine charm, who was also a senior sister.

The other party drank more, just because the drunk Sister Sonia was also a hard-mouthed 'so she couldn't drink?' Miscellaneous fish and miscellaneous fish~', Lao Ma couldn't help it, and drank Sister Suo into the toilet in one breath to use energy pouring and drunken rage, and I walked around with a rolling wine barrel... Melina saw the keg she was carrying.

This moment.

Mei Mei's mind had already flashed sixty-eight versions of the idea that 'everything this woman says now is an excuse', and she took a step forward and blocked the other party's way.

With his hands in front of his chest and his palms facing out, he blurted out a standard 'Meimei can't do it' posture:

"If you want to drink the next round, wait for Senior Sister, I can't drink it."

The old man with the light in his eyes pouted aggrievedly:

"Can't do it?"

Her left hand is pressed on her waist, and her forward posture is extremely attractive. She is tough and beautiful, but she is not the same type and breed as her senior sister. The kind of senior sister is a flat beauty, very handsome but more girl-oriented; Maria, on the other hand, is a little more 'tomboy' and has breasts.

"I can't do it."

"There's nothing in this world that can't be done, including opening the Elden Ring blindfolded."

Maria was serious.

Melina thought to herself: What is Elden Ring? Shouldn't it be a mobile game?

She mumbled and pretended to understand.

Maria didn't embarrass her to drink, and moved her body as she put the barrel down. Melina smelled a smell of alcohol, and showed a look of disgust, then admonished in her calm, somewhat cold-sounding tone:

"Drink in moderation."

Maria's eyes widened:

"If that bastard doesn't have a soothsayer, Ame, our world is in danger, and there are several crises of annihilation, annihilation, and extinction on the Weeping Peninsula alone. And at this time, you let us drink a moderate amount of alcohol, why don't you catch a clockwork cat, and let that kind of cat dumpling provide services for free without money? ”

Clockwork cat, a soft cat balls with clockwork growing on its furry back, only recognize money.

"That's not going to work." Melina remembered the musty library where the clockwork cats reproduced the books in a typed and neat handwriting, and that she had discussed the price with the clockwork cats, who had simply stopped turning the clockwork and turned into stone cats and refused to communicate with her - they forgot Melina's face before they began to communicate with her again.

They are such money-hungry creatures.

Any price reduction is like an insult.

"Isn't that enough? Drink in time, have fun in time, it's about my birds, it's about your birds. Maria said calmly, then stood on another alchemy table and continued the alchemy process of refining gold from the sand.

She looks a hundred times warmer than Sonia on the outside, but the cold winter on her heart is a hundred times colder than Sonia's.

"Even if the world is destroyed?"

"Even if the world is destroyed, I have the confidence to live." Maria paused and looked at her, "In my world, there are two kinds of humans. ”

"One is known, the other is not. The people I know are the real flesh and blood people to me, and the people I don't know are like NPCs to me, maybe 99% of the people who die overnight, I will be sad, depressed and depressed. But if the person who died was someone I knew, even if there was only one, I would be sad. ”

She looked at the table without looking up:

"But I'll help Sonia, if you want to help her too, Ame, remember what I said."

"Do your best for those you know, and don't be morally kidnapped by people you don't know. Don't act like you really care about all human beings, and don't pretend that you're completely morally degraded, OK? ”

There was a certain concern hidden in Maria's words.

Melina heard it, so she smiled and said OK:

"Roger."

"Good Ame." Maria said in a flirtatious tone, "Come with me to West Hamlet tomorrow." ”

Melina bent down and used the water drawer to collect the potion: "What are you going to do?" ”

"Customize a set of equipment for you, Suo Suo will pay for it, don't be polite to her, she will let you fight with a dragon dozens of times stronger than the red feather dragon you met, and she must include all your initial equipment."

Melina was a little embarrassed, and also to save money: "There's no need to customize, right?" ”

Maria glanced at the capital on her chest and shook her head vigorously:

"You're not Suoso, she can wear anything she wants, you ...... The plug is not too low. ”

Mei Mei has no opinion now.
