Chapter 39: The Mysterious Commander
Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
Perhaps out of confidence, most people did not summon their battle servants.
This also prevented Su Bai from knowing their exact strength, but one thing was certain.
The 25 people present were all Silver-tier and above!
Other than him, who was at the Iron-tier.
This power was extremely powerful.
One had to know that in the first half of Su Bai’s life, the most powerful person he had seen was a Silver-tier teacher in school.
Thus, they successfully booked a three-story restaurant.
The lobby manager did not say anything else and immediately asked the staff to clear the area.
The customers who were cleared out didn’t dare to say anything and just left.
What a joke. In a world where strength was respected, who would dare to argue with more than 20 Silver Beast Tamers?
Who would ask for an earlier death?
Even after some rejections, Su Bai was still pushed to the main seat by Lacey.
According to Lacey, Su Bai had sponsored all the drinks for this party, so he had to take the main seat.
The others nodded in agreement. At the same time, they subtly expressed their wish to come to such gatherings more often.
Su Bai had no choice but to submit. Other than strength, this group of people were also extremely thick-skinned.
He looked at McKay, who was sitting on his left, then at Lacey on his right.
Su Bai, who was caught in the middle, felt some pressure.
He was just a small Iron Beast Tamer. Why did he take the main seat in front of a group of Silver and Gold Beast Tamers?
Life was truly wonderful.
However, the Wilderness Hunting Squad fought with beasts all year round and did not care about these small details.
Before the dishes were served, the wine was already served.
Looking at the cup of strong liquor in front of him, Su Bai felt somewhat helpless.
He was still a minor!
“Here’s a toast to our new member, Su Bai!”
Lacey stood and spoke loudly.
“Cheers!”
Everyone drank the liquor in one gulp.
Su Bai smiled and finished his cup as well.
Isn’t it just liquor?
Isn’t liquor made of water?
Just drink it!
Cheers!
“Ding—Highly concentrated energy liquid detected. Absorbed.”
Before Su Bai could taste the strong liquor, the system notification sounded.
What?
Energy liquid?
Su Bai stared blankly at the empty cup in his hand.
No wonder it was so expensive and had to be exchanged with Contribution Points. It turned out that it contained a high concentration of energy.
In other words, for Beast Tamers, this could relieve mental pressure and also increase their strength.
Good stuff.
Su Bai licked his lips.
Not only did the system absorb the energy in the strong liquor, but it also disintegrated the alcohol.
So now he felt nothing at all, as if he had drunk a glass of water.
What? Doesn’t that mean I’ll never get drunk again?
Su Bai’s lips curled into a smile.
After drinking the strong alcohol, the atmosphere became even more lively.
Especially after Su Bai finished a glass of strong liquor, he had no expression on his face.
Everyone cheered.
Su Bai had a feeling that these people were looking at him with a more intimate gaze.
“Here, keep drinking!”
McKay stood up and said excitedly: “Our squad has gained another powerful Beast Tamer. We will be able to finish exploring this hunting ground soon!”
“That’s right. Cheers!”
Everyone raised their cups happily.
Su Bai did not show any weakness as he drank glass after glass.
He even tilted the bottom of the cup up, indicating that he had already finished drinking.
This action made everyone’s eyes light up as they started imitating.
“Ding—Highly concentrated energy liquid detected. Absorbed.”
Upon hearing the notification, Su Bai’s lips curled into a malicious smile.
Sorry about that, guys, but get ready to lie under the table!
Unsure if it was a custom or something, the members stood up to speak one by one and gave toasts.
By the time the first dish was served, three members were already drunk.
“Trash.”
Susan looked down on these three people. Then, she looked at Su Bai, her eyes shining with surprise: “Young Su Bai, you are amazing!”
Although the system would decompose the liquor every time it entered his stomach, the liquor in his mouth could not be absorbed.
After drinking more than 10 cups of strong liquor, Su Bai was still a little drunk.
He could not help but be emboldened. He dared to say what he normally would not say.
Upon hearing Susan’s words, Su Bai laughed and said:
“Not only am I good at drinking, I’m even better at other aspects. I’ll let you experience it in the future, Big Sister Susan!”
The members heard Su Bai’s words and gave him a thumbs up, praising him:
“Good one lad. For your words, let’s have another drink!”
“Cheers!”
Another full glass of hard liquor.
Two fell on the spot.
Lacey had always been a lively girl, and now she was even more agitated.
She pulled Su Bai to drink repeatedly and almost made him collapse.
“By the way, Lacey, I have a question.”
Taking advantage of the time when he had just finished his cup, Su Bai asked the question in his mind: “Why did you accept me so quickly?”
Lacey waved her hand casually and mouthed:
“C-Commander… said that you will be our comrade.
“So you are our comrade.
“What’s the point of asking so much between comrades? Drink up!”
Su Bai did not know whether to laugh or cry. He could only drink another cup.
However, his doubts were not answered. Who was the commander?
One had to know that the lowest-ranked member of the 14th Wilderness Hunting Squad was a Silver Beast Tamer.
And there were big shots wherever he went.
However, because of an order from their commander, the members trusted Su Bai so much.
What kind of charisma and strength did the commander have to be able to convince the members?
Su Bai could not help but be interested in this commander whom he had never met before.
