Chapter 2681 Coincidence (the Computer Can Last for a While)
"...Really? Still no news? Thank you, I will come again."
Dragging her exhausted body to leave the Church of Eternal Flame, Triss walked down the street with a gloomy expression. She has come to the church several times, but every time she was told that the envoy was not there. This made Triss feel more and more doubts in her heart. Could it be that something happened to Shirley? Could it be that she was being used or imprisoned...
Feeling a little irritable, Triss came to a tavern not far away, wanting to have a drink and rest here, but what surprised Triss was that just as she opened the door and walked into the tavern, she heard There was a burst of cheers.
"This lady is amazing!"
"Come on!!"
What the hell is this doing?
Looking at the people around the table in the tavern in front of her, Triss couldn't help being curious, even though the tavern was originally a noisy and complicated place. But it was still daytime, and at this time, except for some alcoholics who were addicted to alcohol, there was basically no one there. However, seeing that the lively atmosphere in front of her was obviously unusual, not only humans, but even elves and dwarves could be seen in the crowd, this immediately aroused Triss' interest, so she also walked over and looked at it curiously. among the crowd.
Originally, Triss thought that there might be someone fighting wine or playing gwent cards—after all, based on her memory, generally speaking, these two were the only ones that could attract crowds to watch in a tavern. But the result was completely beyond Triss' expectations. Under the eyes of everyone, there was a girl in a black robe and a black headscarf. With a knife and fork in her hand, she slowly ate the food on the plate in front of her. At first glance, it was just an ordinary dining scene, but for some reason, the people around showed excited and excited expressions.
"What are you doing?"
Unable to understand what exactly happened, Triss stepped forward to ask in confusion, and upon hearing Triss' inquiry, a guest next to her soon explained to her.
"Hey, you don't know this lady, that girl is amazing...!!"
Under the guest's explanation, Triss finally understood what was going on—it turned out that the owner of this tavern launched a special service of "all you can eat", as long as the guests can finish their "Super Master" set meal, Then you don't have to pay. But on the other hand, if you challenge the super set meal but can't finish it, you will have to pay double the money.
The rule of the super set meal is that guests need to eat more than ten dishes in a row. If they can finish all ten dishes, then even if they have won, they must eat alone, and they cannot share with others, and they cannot be wasted. , must be eaten clean without any leftovers.
And this boss is also quite cunning, if you just look at it from the menu, it seems quite ordinary. But the problem is... the weight.
It includes a whole fish, a whole chicken, and a whole roast suckling pig. In addition, there is lettuce soup in a basin as big as a washbasin, and bread longer than a sword. Let alone a person, it is The whole family probably couldn't finish it!
In the beginning, there were still many big eaters who challenged with confidence, but of course they failed, and this tavern itself has a bit of a background. If you want to take the opportunity to eat the Overlord's meal, you will die miserably .
Until today, a little girl came here and asked for a challenge.
At first, everyone thought it was ridiculous. After all, this girl didn't look very old, and it was impossible to complete the challenge.
What they didn't expect was that this girl actually made it all the way to the end. And unlike other people, judging by her appearance, it seems that there is no difference at all whether she eats or not! Because the boss's rules are very strict, requiring that all food must be eaten up and there is nothing left, so most people can't last long.
But the girl didn't care, until now, it's the seventh course!
"Hey……………?"
After listening to the guest's introduction, Triss was also taken aback immediately, and then looked at the girl in front of her in surprise again, and began to scrutinize her carefully.
At first glance, she was a very beautiful young girl with bright red long hair and blue eyes, her origin could not be seen from her appearance, but what made Triss even more puzzled was the young girl's clothes.
The girl was wearing a jet-black robe and a black turban, and she looked like a nun. But Triss didn't remember which church's nuns would dress like this, not to mention that this was the site of the Eternal Flame Church. The believers here usually wore red and white, and there was no black.
Not only that, Triss also noticed that although the girl's clothes looked very simple, they were top-grade in terms of style and fabric. If it weren't for the feeling of this dress, it would be more like a dress that a noble young lady would wear purely from the fabric.
In addition, the girl's movements are also quite elegant. Generally speaking, if you want to talk about the big eater, you will feel that you are the type of wolfing down. However, the red-haired girl in front of her seemed unhurried, cutting up the food in front of her with a knife, and then putting it into her mouth with a fork. Both the movement itself and the speed seemed to be no different from ordinary meals, but when Triss noticed, she found that the roast chicken in front of the girl had only a bare skeleton left.
And at this moment, another voice sounded.
"I kept you waiting!!"
Accompanied by the voice, the crowd immediately moved out of the way, and then saw two strong men carrying a roast pig to the red-haired girl, and put it down with a "bang".
"Shhh!!!"
Seeing the roast pig in front of him, the surrounding crowd immediately booed the boss, because anyone with a discerning eye could tell that it was a big adult pig, and this kind of big pig is rare even in the banquet venue. In the end, the boss actually put it here? And it's baked so shiny... To be honest, most people probably won't want to eat it just by looking at it.
However, the red-haired girl stretched out her hand again unhurriedly, cut open the roast pig, and then tasted the food again——from her face, there was no sign of restlessness or reluctance at all. It was as if what was in front of me was just ordinary food that couldn't be more ordinary.
For a moment, Triss even wondered if the girl in front of her had used some kind of special spell, but after careful observation, she found that the girl didn't use any spells, and Triss didn't know any spells that could make people look ugly. Eating so much food with a change of color——Looking at the slender waist of the red-haired girl, Triss really wondered where she ate all the food?
Just when Triss was puzzled, there was only a pile of skeletons left in the huge roast pig in front of her. If Triss hadn't seen it with her own eyes, she wouldn't believe that a slender girl could eat it alone. Download so much food.
Seeing this, the face of the halfling who is the owner of the tavern has become much uglier. There are many taverns in Novigrad, and it is only by coming up with this idea that he has attracted so many guests. I originally thought that no one could break through the super package, but now it seems that this is not the case at all!
Thinking of this, he waved his hand viciously again, and then he saw the chef step up boldly and put a bowl of soup the size of a washbasin in front of the girl. Fish, ham, and lettuce could be seen floating in it. Stewed vegetables——Obviously, this was also the trick of the halfling boss. Simply drinking soup was not enough to meet the requirements, but he had to eat all the vegetables and meat in it.
In other words, this dish is actually equal to the weight of three dishes.
But the red-haired girl was not afraid at all, she first finished the food inside, then directly raised the basin in front of her eyes, and started drinking. And everyone's eyes were fixed on the girl, until she let out a satisfied gasp, and then put the basin that had been completely drunk on the table.
Seeing this scene, the guests in the tavern immediately erupted.
"Nice job! Chick!"
"It's unbelievable, where the hell did she eat all that food?"
"Could it be some weird spell?"
"There are so many people watching, how can I see what kind of spells she uses!"
"This is really incomprehensible. The pile of things she ate is probably taller than her!"
Ignoring the commotion around her, the red-haired girl put down the tableware, wiped her mouth with a handkerchief, and looked at the earth-colored halfling tavern owner.
"Anything else? Boss?"
"No, let's stop here...it's Miss, you won..."
At this moment, the halfling boss was also trembling. Facing the question of the red-haired girl, he didn't know what to say. In the end, he could only bite the bullet and nodded—although according to the rules, the "Super Master" package is There is no limit, it only says that you can eat more than ten dishes for free, but you don't say how much you want to eat. Maybe after one or two more dishes, the girl in front of him will fall down, but seeing the other party's look of ease, the halfling boss doesn't dare to bet on this. Besides, now that the girl has eaten ten dishes, if she passes the test, if she continues to insist, it will cause dissatisfaction among other guests.
Originally, this was a gimmick to attract customers, but now someone has cleared the customs, and she is such a slender and beautiful girl. If this is played out, it will definitely attract more customers, so the boss doesn't feel bad about the meal fee.
Moreover, it’s fine if you keep challenging and failing. Once there is a first passer, there will be a second one, not to mention that the first passer is a woman. This will definitely stimulate those elders to come here to challenge.
Thinking of this, the halfling boss immediately cheered up and raised his hands high.
"I'm here to announce that this beautiful red-haired lady has won the Speedmaster package challenge!! So her meal fee will be waived!"
"Oooo!!!"
The boss announced the result so happily, and the guests also cheered with their glasses high. And after watching this good show, Triss also shook her head with a smile, turned around and prepared to leave.
However, at this moment, suddenly, the door of the tavern opened, and then a white-haired girl with a long sword behind her walked in. When she saw the red-haired girl standing up, her eyes lit up and she walked over.
"You are here, Miss Liz, it's really easy for me to find... What are you doing?"
"Sorry, Miss Shirley, I just heard from the owner that there is an all-you-can-eat free challenge package, so I want to try it."
"Ah...so that's the case."
Hearing Liz's answer, Ciri's expression changed slightly, and then she glanced sympathetically at the halfling boss not far away, and then looked away.
"Okay, let's go back quickly. Mr. Fangzheng has received news that he has found a good place."
"Really? I'm leaving now."
Hearing Shirley's answer, Liz also nodded hastily, and then the two hurried towards the door.
And at this moment, a voice reached Shirley's ears.
"... Ciri?"
"Hey?"
Hearing this voice, Ciri turned her head away, only to see Triss walking over, staring at her dumbfounded.
"Are you really Ciri?"
"... Triss?"
For the two of them, this was a rare coincidence.
