Chapter 2070: A Beautiful And Dangerous Woman
Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
A young and beautiful woman stood at the door. Mag had only seen her black-and-white tight-fitting attire in movies before, and it was usually the sci-fi movies or dramatic movies.
She had silvery blue hair and a pair of light green eyes.
The bodysuit showed her figure perfectly, but people couldn’t have any dirty thoughts about her.
Because her beautiful face had a very cold expression, she even seemed aloof.
Mag didn’t care that her bodysuit didn’t fit into this world, nor did he care about how aloof she looked. He only cared about the feedback given by the omnipresent door:
Name: unknown! Race: unknown! Age: unknown! Strength: unknown!
Danger! Danger! Danger!
Yes. This woman was a very dangerous existence.
After Mag had passed the tribulation together with the Cthulhu, he had not felt the presence of danger for a long time. However, he felt it from this woman right now.
“System, is she from the so-called advanced civilization? How many things can you find out studying her if we capture her?” Mag said to the system inwardly.
“The premise is you can defeat her. Otherwise, it will be you who would be sliced and studied,” the system swiftly answered.
“What’s the odds of me winning?”
“50-50.”
“These odds don’t look very auspicious.” Mag frowned. He instantly relaxed his body, and smiled at the girl at the door. “I’m sorry. The tavern is already closed for the night. Please come again tomorrow if you want to drink.”
Mag knew very well that they would come sooner or later, but he never expected them to come so soon.
Hence, he wanted to test if this was an accident.
“Closed for the night?” The woman frowned, and looked at Mag with her cold eyes. She revealed a pondering expression. “Then, do I need to use another excuse?”
‘Mags facial muscles twitched. He wasn’t quite used to this woman’s cold and direct way of talking.
The other party was obviously here for him, and she didn’t even bother to hide that intention.
Or perhaps, she did try to hide that intention, but her clumsy way of expression exposed it.
At the very least, the other party didn’t just come to him with a discrimination speech, take out a pair of cuffs, and then force him into submission. This meant that there was room for a discussion.
Mag smilingly said to the woman, “Since you have already opened the tavern’s door, please come in. I have meat and liquor. I wonder what is the story behind you, lovely maiden?”
‘The woman only stared at him coldly. That exquisite face seemed to be made from ice; even the gaze was horribly cold, as if there weren’t any emotions in her eyes.
“System, this isn’t a robot, right? She’s also not an assassin without emotions, right?” Mag asked inwardly.
“In order not to attract the other party’s attention, this System has already cut off all detection devices. However, we can be sure that the other party is still a carbon-based life form, and not a robot,” the system swiftly replied.
“Thanks.” The woman retracted her gaze from Mag. She stepped into the tavern, and surveyed it once before sitting down in a seat close to the door. Then, she continued to stare at Mag.
Mag closed the door again. He felt quite uncomfortable being stared at. He showed a professional smile. “What would you like to drink, Miss?”
“Liquor,” the woman replied.
This is a freaking tavern. Of course I know you want to drink liquor.
“The drink list is on the wall.” Mag tried his best to say that with a smile.
The woman looked up at the drink list on the wall seriously. After a while, she said, “A bottle of Maotai, a bottle of whiskey, a helping of pig ears salad, a helping of pig tongue salad, and a helping of drunkard peanuts.”
“Sure, please give me a minute.” Mag walked to the kitchen with upturned lips.
He was a little curious about how well this woman could hold her alcohol. Even if she was from an advanced civilization, she would still have a weakness as long as she wasn’t a robot.
After she got drunk… Hehehe
A somewhat obscene male human. One ordinary tavern. However, this place is 32 meters away from the nuclear power start up, and this man is the owner of the property. There might be some useful information to be found from him. Xi looked at the busy man in the kitchen and wondered.
Apart from that, she also sensed an inexplicable aura in this tavern. It was familiar yet strange at the same time. She actually couldn’t make an accurate judgment for a while.
This situation wasn’t common for her, so she didn’t hypnotize this human immediately after she entered the tavern.
Of course, it wasn’t difficult for her to obtain a normal human’s memory, as long as it didn’t go against the Observers’ code.
Her equipment bay had ample food. The ancient continent’s food wasn’t attractive to her at all. Ordering food was part of learning about the new inhabitants’ behavior.
Of course, investigating the new inhabitants’ food was also one of an Observer’s jobs.
Xi calmly observed this tavern. Soon after, her gaze landed on that counter.
It was a red wooden counter with a marble countertop. The surface was as smooth as a mirror, and its sides were also round and smooth. It made her reveal a perplexed look.
This processing technology seems to be polished by machinery. Has the ancient continent’s manufacturing industry already developed to this extent? Xi wrote down this detail in her Observer’s Diary.
“Your liquor and side dishes.” Mag came out with a tray. After putting down the opened liquor and three side dishes, he stepped to the side.
“Thank you,” Xi answered him calmly, but her gaze was already attracted by the liquor and dishes in front of her.
The rich liquor’s aroma that drifted out from that white porcelain bottle actually made her, someone who had never drunk before, think that it was exquisite.
Additionally, those two side dishes that were made from ears and tongues were completely different from her expectations. They even looked a little… enticing?
It was Mag’s turn to quietly observe her from the side, with his arms wrapped in front of his chest.
Did the advanced civilization’s people need to eat? What were their eating habits and tastes? He was curious about all these things.
Sensing Mag’s gaze, Xi frowned slightly. After a brief moment of hesitation, she still picked up the two bamboo sticks called “chopsticks,” and picked up a peanut clumsily.
She could see the energy in this peanut and all the elements mixed up in it, including the elements that could cause sickness.
The new inhabitants’ diet was still too unhealthy. This was also the main reason that she didn’t like to eat their food.
‘There was a nutritional cream that had all the nutrients well mixed up in the equipment bay. It could provide sufficient nutrition while making sure that it was healthy at the same time.
After a brief moment of hesitation, she popped the peanut into her mouth.
Crunch~
The teeth collided with the peanut, bringing a crunchy texture.
At the same time, the spiciness blossomed on the tip of her tongue. The aroma exploded in her mouth along with the crushed peanut.
Xi’s eyes widened instantly, and she showed an expression of disbelief.
This was a taste that she had never tasted before. It was amazing yet irresistible.
