Chapter 2667 Light in the Darkness (Ⅱ)

"Prime Minister, your ideas are probably unrealistic. Other nobles will not accept my method. Their brains are as rigid and stubborn as rocks. Never try to persuade them to accept new things!"

Joan shook his head pretending to be negative.

"Don't be so pessimistic, Mitra, if we don't try some things, how will we know if they won't work?"

Saoirse calmly encouraged the Magic Eye Arcanist.

"Since you have said so, I can't pour cold water on it anymore." Qiao An sighed, "In the future, I will still govern this territory according to my own ideas, hoping to provide some useful references for Your Excellency the Prime Minister."

On the surface, she pretended not to be optimistic about Saoirse's promotion of the new system in the whole city. In fact, Joan was quite excited in her heart. She wished that the Prime Minister would do what he said and bring some new atmosphere to the dull and conservative Magic Eye Nest City.

She hid her true thoughts in her heart, and she was glad that at least so far, she had not been assimilated by beholders or mind flayers and reduced to a monster completely dehumanized. Instead, she hoped to light a light for the dark city of Demon Eye , exuding a little light of humanity that warms the soul, I can't help but feel relieved.

"Mitra, in fact, I'm not here to drop by, nor to investigate the mine disaster. I have something more important to talk to you in private."

Saoirse put away her smile and her expression became extraordinarily solemn.

Joan nodded knowingly, and immediately cast a spell to take the prime minister and teleport to her lair, asking her to enter the living room for a detailed discussion.

Saoirse floated around the living room and nodded with satisfaction.

"Mitra, you have kept your den very tidy, and it must be very comfortable to live here."

Hearing what she said, Joan felt a little weird.

Sir Saoirse, what do you mean by this?

Do you want to move and live with me?

Why is His Majesty's head so green?

It's better not to!

Seeing her silence for a long time, Saoirse turned around with a look of reproach.

"Mitra, why are you in a daze! Why don't you treat the guests with something tasty and delicious?"

Joan raised one eye and scratched his head, secretly worried.

To be honest, she has lived in Udinos for more than half a year, and His Excellency the Prime Minister is the only visitor so far, and she has not prepared refreshments and drinks, so how can she treat guests?

After a little thought, Joan got an idea. He opened the storage bag, took out a bottle of wine brewed with phase honey and giant apples, filled the two crystal cups on the table, and invited the Prime Minister to taste it.

Saoirse stretched out an eye stalk, rolled up the wine glass and brought it to the main eye to look at it. The beautiful amber wine gave off a sweet and mellow fragrance.

"To the supreme health!"

Joan also rolled up a glass of wine and drank it down after clinking glasses with Saoirse.

She rarely drinks alcohol, but in order to prove that there is no poison in the wine and to dispel the suspicion of the guests, she can only drink this booze.

Beholders more or less have some delusional symptoms of persecution, and Saoirse cannot completely overcome this congenital mental defect, but she is well-trained and deep in the city, and can always hide her suspicions. Elegant atmosphere, personable.

It wasn't until Joan drank the wine in the glass that Saoirse brought the wine glass to her mouth and took a sip, her eyes immediately overflowed with surprise, and she couldn't help but also drank the rest of the wine in one gulp.

"Mitra, this wine is delicious, where did you get it?"

Of course, Qiao An couldn't answer truthfully, but fortunately, he was prepared for this question.

"I bought it online."

"Online?"

"Your Excellency, Prime Minister, haven't you ever used Cloud Network?" Qiao Qiang put on a shocked expression.

"Cloud Network? I've heard of it, but I don't know how to use it."

Saoirse stroked the wine bottle with a hint of embarrassment in her eyes.

"Then you are out of date! Prime Minister, I will teach you to surf the Internet!"

Joan quickly helped Saoirse apply for a cloud account, and taught her how to search for the content she was interested in and how to shop online.

After a fierce operation, Joann opened the page of "Grocery store if you like to buy or not, please refuse to bargain", pointed to the newly-launched "Honey Apple Cider" and said to Saoirse:

"I bought the wine you drank just now at this store. If you are used to drinking, we can buy it as a group..."

"Yeah!"

Saoirse was overjoyed, and was deeply fascinated by the new world of "cloud network" that was unfolding in front of her.

"Mitra, as expected of you! You can always find some weird new gadgets!"

"Hehe~ I have always been so unruly and brave to try new things, so many old-fashioned people in the city don't like me."

Qiao An caressed the stalks of his eyes, with a proud expression on his face, quite like a "fashionista".

"By the way, I was so busy drinking and chatting that I almost forgot my business." Saoirse patted her forehead annoyed, "Mitra, actually, I came to you this time to ask for your help."

"If you have anything to say, just say it, and I will try my best."

"It's not my business. Our Supreme Majesty is about to give birth. The due date is tomorrow or the day after tomorrow. The pain caused by the pregnancy has made her extremely irritable and her mental state is very unstable. I really can't do it alone. You Can you find time to be a midwife?"

What? Her Majesty the Queen of Udinos is about to give birth, the Prime Minister asked me to help deliver the baby?

ah? this……

This unexpected news made Qiao An stunned for a few seconds before he came back to his senses. He quickly activated the "Spiritual Theater" and stopped for two minutes to suppress the shock!

Using this buffer time, Joan quickly recalled the knowledge about beholders giving birth to offspring in his memory.

Her current Mitra form, converted to a human age, is almost twenty years old. She belongs to the kind of big girl who has matured but is not yet married. She lacks personal experience of giving birth. hearsay.

Normally, parthenogenetic beholders reproduce only once in their lifetime.

The average lifespan of a beholder is two to three times that of a human. Pregnancy usually occurs around the age of 40, and a beholder at the age of 60 is considered an "older mother". It is rare for a beholder to delay pregnancy until this age.

Ishtar, the beholder queen of Udinos, conceived her offspring for the first time in her 40s, but unlike ordinary beholders, Ishtar can still usher in her second pregnancy at nearly a hundred years old. In the history of Magic Eye Nest City, it is still unprecedented.

"When His Majesty was young, he also conceived and gave birth step by step like ordinary beholders, and gave birth to a dozen cubs in the first birth." Saoirse said to Joan.

"According to the tradition of our beholder clan, no matter how many offspring are born, at most one cub that looks the most like its mother will be kept, and the rest of the cubs with poor appearance will either be eaten by the mother on the spot to supplement nutrition, or Tie it to a stone and sink it to the bottom of the lake, and the most merciful way to deal with it...is just to abandon the eliminated cubs to the wilderness and let them fend for themselves."
