Glug glug-
After finishing a large glass of “Royal Salute Count Rum,” Song Jian’s eyes were seeing double, but the effects were quite obvious: one free attribute point and a hundred Vitality Points limit increased.
“Earned, burp, earned it, hehe~” Song Jian, with drunk and misty eyes, sat by the bar with a flushed face, laughing foolishly.
Drunk Song Jian didn’t even notice the system prompt.
System: You’ve consumed the treasured liquor “Royal Salute Count Rum” and gained the title “Junior Sommelier”; Junior Sommelier: Increase critical strike rate by 3% during combat (must have title equipped to take effect).
System: You can only equip one title at a time.
Initially, Song Jian completed the novice task and received the title “Lucky to be Alive.” This title is considered a novice title, and anyone entering for the first time and successfully staying in the game for twelve hours can obtain it.
[Title: Lucky to be Alive]: Effect, the rate of hunger and thirst drops significantly (no need to equip the title for the effect).
With this title, players can free up most of their energy from searching for food and water, otherwise, every time they enter the game, they would have no time to do anything else.
“Miss Fiana, I’d like to exchange this piece of grilled meat for a glass of rum, alright?” Wang Qi glanced at Song Jian, who was laughing foolishly, and suddenly felt a bit reluctant to drink rum. But since Song Jian asked him to buy it, he was still willing to follow Song Jian’s advice.
“Hmm, for this piece of food, 1 can only give you five Doomsday Coins. To purchase this discounted rum, you’ll need to give me another piece of the same quality food!” Fiana stretched out her right index finger and swayed it in front of Wang Qi’s eyes.
“Alright, okay!” Wang Qi quickly took out another piece of grilled meat.
“Here, this is your rum, enjoy!” Fiana filled another large glass of rum.
Each glass has a capacity of one liter, and the bottle of “Royal Salute Count Rum” that Fiana took out seems to hold no more than one liter, but after pouring two glasses in a row, it still looks nearly full.
Wang Qi held up the glass of golden liquid with bubbles and looked at its attributes with widened eyes and an opened mouth, showing a surprised expression on his face.
Glug-
With a loud gulp, Wang Qi could hardly believe his eyes. He had never obtained such a good item since entering the game.
“It’s really… really a great deal…” Considering the price of just ten Doomsday Coins for this glass of liquor, Wang Qi suddenly felt as satisfied as if he had picked up a treasure at Panjiayuan.
Glug glug-
Drinking the entire glass of rum in one breath, Wang Qi also showed a silly smile on his face, sitting limply to one side, spewing alcohol-laden breath with a foolish laugh.
“Hi, this is our boss…” Li Ke’er sighed, took out her hand crossbow, stood about five or six meters away from the entrance of the bar, aiming at the monsters outside the door and started to attack.
“See that? The boss herself is in the field! You lazy bastards need to step up!” Fiana slapped the bar counter with a “bam” sound and exclaimed.
System: Fiana releases “Morale Boost” skill; all people in the bar area have their combat morale increased by 100%.
“For the glory of Sunflower Bar!” A bar bouncer swinging his broken stick slammed it on a monster’s head, making it explode like a watermelon.
“For the boss!” A bar waiter wielding a steel pipe stabbed it into a monster’s chest.
“For Sister Fiana!” A bar bouncer kicked a monster in the stomach, sending it flying.
“For… for Count Rum!” Someone shouted, and almost all the waiters and bouncers’ eyes lit up as they shouted together, “For Count Rum!”
Waiters and bouncers became even more frenzied. Every humanoid zombie received special attention from them. Both waiters and bouncers seemed to have robbery-like skills, being able to steal items from monsters during attacks, and even retrieve monster drops in advance.
Soon, a muscular bar bouncer pushed aside two waiters behind him and rushed to the counter.
“Big sister, check out how much these things are worth!” The bar bouncer piled more than a dozen items emitting white and green glows on the counter, laughing foolishly.
“Hmm, they’re all junk, nothing valuable…” Fiana frowned, looking disgusted, picking through them with two fingers, as if touching the garbage even once was a desecration of her fingertips: “I’ll give you ten Doomsday Coins, enough to buy a glass of rum.”
“Long live, big sister!” The bar bouncer excitedly raised both hands and cheered.
Li Ke’er soon received a system notification.
System: Your employee, bar bouncer, sold equipment to Fiana, valued at three hundred sixty-five Doomsday Coins. Fiana used Deception Skill and gave the bar bouncer ten Doomsday Coins. The bar bouncer was very grateful to Fiana, increasing their Intimacy by 5 points.
“Amazing, Sister Fiana is so amazing, 1 want to learn this skill too!” Li Ke’er’s eyes sparkled with stars, looking at Fiana with an admiring face.
Glug glug-
After gulping down the entire glass of rum, the bouncer let out a satisfying belch and became invigorated. His body seemed even more robust, full of vitality, and swinging his broken stick with a “whoosh” sound.
“You bastards who dare to offend Sunflower Bar, all of you will die!” The bouncer who drank the rum became even more violent, like a wild bull, rushing directly into the monster group. The wind was strong as he swung the broken stick; monsters’ vitality points dropped like a flood breaking through a dam.
If Song Jian were sober at this moment, he would definitely see that the NPCs who drank “Royal Salute Count Rum” seemed to have even stronger effects than players-do; almost all attributes, including attack, defense, speed, and critical strike, have been drastically increased.
Soon, almost all the staff members had grabbed a large amount of wealth and sold them to Fiana for ten Doomsday Coins.
As Li Ke’er looked at the series of system prompts, her eyes sparkled with gold stars. Fiana had become her role model, and she kept calling her “sister.”
System: Your employee, bar waiter, sold equipment to Fiana, valued at two hundred ninety-five Doomsday Coins. Fiana used Deception Skill and gave the bar bouncer ten Doomsday Coins. The bar bouncer was very grateful to Fiana, increasing their Intimacy by 5 points.
System: Your employee, bar bouncer, sold equipment to Fiana, valued at five hundred seventy-four Doomsday Coins. Fiana used Deception Skill and gave the bar bouncer ten Doomsday Coins. The bar bouncer was very grateful to Fiana, increasing their Intimacy by 5 points.
While bar employees were enjoying a killing spree after drinking rum, a towering figure over two meters tall appeared before everyone.
