Genshin Impact: The Road to Reversal

Chapter 440: Intoxication-Resistant Physique

Funina frowned, a faint strange taste still lingering on the tip of her tongue, completely lacking the sweetness that grape juice should have.

As soon as Mo Yan swallowed, a pungent taste instantly exploded in his throat.

puff!

"Cough, cough, cough!" He suddenly covered his mouth. The spicy liquid choked his chest and caused tears to well up in the corners of his eyes. He was finally sure that it was not an illusion.

This is not grape juice at all, it is clearly a strong liquor with a very high alcohol content. The burning sensation spreads along the throat all the way to the stomach, as if I had swallowed a ball of fire.

"Woah! Are you okay?"

Kailin and Finina exclaimed at the same time.

"It would be strange if nothing happened! This is not grape juice, it's clearly white wine!" Mo Yan said in a lost voice, despite the burning sensation in his throat.

"Oh? That can't be. Korla clearly said it was a drink, and I checked it again and again." Funina was so anxious that she turned the bottle over and over again, rubbing her fingers on the grape pattern, as if she wanted to pick it off.

"What's wrong, Captain Funina?" Tabak, who was sitting at the bar, heard the noise and hurried over from behind the bar.

As if grasping at a lifeline, Funina raised the bottle and shouted at him, "Tabac! You've come just in time! Look! This is clearly grape juice, but why does it taste like wine?"

"Really? Let me see." Tabak took the bottle, squinted his eyes and looked at it in the light for a long time. Then, he picked up the bottle of whiskey that Kelly ordered and compared it. Then he suddenly reacted.

"This...tsk." He looked at table number two, "Femini!"

The silver-gray-haired boy sitting next to Linny looked up at the sound. He put down his lemonade and asked innocently, "What's wrong, Brother Tabak?"

"What's wrong? I asked you to prepare the wine, but something went wrong again? Look, the labels are all reversed!" Tabak raised the bottle towards Femini, his tone filled with a hint of disappointment.

"Huh? No way?" Femini was shocked.

"Of course not, come and see for yourself!"

At this time, Linnie, who was sitting nearby, smiled and tried to smooth things over: "Don't be angry, Tabak. Femini has put a lot of effort into the troupe, so it's inevitable that she will make mistakes in private."

"Yes, Tabak, this kid is usually very careful in his work. Maybe the merchant didn't notice it." Keli walked over and said with a smile.

Tabaque put his hands on his hips and sighed, "Alright, alright, but you can't drink these two bottles of wine. I have to keep them for the merchant to settle the bill."

The incident ended amidst the laughter of the crowd. At this time, Funina came to Mo Yan again.

"I'm sorry, I wanted to thank you for what happened during the day, but..."

Mo Yan rubbed his still burning throat and said, "It's okay. But you, are you really okay after drinking so much?"

"Huh?" Funina was stunned.

Kailin looked at Mo Yan and picked up the wine he hadn't finished yet and tasted it. As expected...

"It's so strong!" Kailin just took a small sip and was choked by the strong force. She frowned and quickly put down the glass and wiped the corner of her mouth with the back of her hand. "It's such a strong drink, it makes me feel a little dizzy. Fu Nina, you drank a whole glass, are you really not feeling anything?"

Funina was stunned again, but she didn't seem drunk at all.

She scratched her head, and before she could reply, Mo Yan asked again, "Wait a minute, don't tell me, you never get drunk?"

Finina was startled by the question and subconsciously took two steps back: "It seems... that's indeed the case."

Mo Yan sighed, "No wonder the liquor was so strong, but you didn't even notice it."

Finina took two more steps back.

"I'm sorry... I..." She hesitated, as if she had something to hide. Suddenly, "Oh, to express my apology, I'll get some drinks for everyone!"

She spoke loudly, her steps so fast she looked like she was running away. Mo Yan watched her hurried back, feeling she was hiding something. Especially when she mentioned "not getting drunk," the flash of panic in her eyes didn't sound like she was being proud of anything.

"What's wrong with her?" Kailin asked.

Mo Yan shrugged his shoulders. Although he was confused, he didn't think about it any further.

Kailin sighed, "But I never thought that Funina actually had this ability. It's really amazing."

At this time, Kelly returned to her seat with the red wine she had just picked up.

"For Xiaofu, this is not something to be praised. On the contrary, this physique has caused her a lot of trouble." As she said this, she poured another glass of wine.

"Physique?" Kailin asked doubtfully.

"Yes, when Furninna was little, she mistook my collection for a drink. I was shocked when I found out, but nothing happened to her." Keli swirled the wine glass, and the wine drew a beautiful arc in the glass. "That was the 'Starfall Brew' I've treasured for thirty years. One drop can make a strong man sleep for three days and three nights. At that time, she burped while holding the empty wine jar and asked me why the 'juice' was a bit bitter. You didn't see how scared I was at that time."

Kailin was shocked when she heard this: "Thirty years of liquor? If it were someone else, something bad would have happened a long time ago."

"That's right. It was then that I learned that she had a special physique."

As soon as he finished speaking, Korla suddenly came down, holding a few bottles of blueberry juice and placing them on the table.

"You two, this is something the captain asked me to deliver."

Kailin looked at the dark purple liquid and then asked, "Why doesn't Funina come herself?"

"Oh, the captain said he was in a bad mood and wanted to go out for a walk. He also asked me to tell everyone that he was sorry for what happened just now."

"She went out?" Kailin asked in surprise, "She's the only one? It's so chaotic out there right now."

Korla nodded: "Yeah, it seems he also took away a few bottles of wine."

"Heh..." Mo Yan sighed softly, "I'll go out and look for her."

"Well, I'll leave it to you then." Kelly said with a smile.

Mo Yan picked up his usual coat, draped it over his arm, and walked quickly towards the door.

"It's just the wrong wine, that's not serious." Kailin said, sitting in her original position with her hands spread out. "Also, is it cold now? Why do I always see her dressed so warmly?"

"This is probably due to her physical condition." Keli poured a glass of wine and drank it all again with the barbecue.

"Constitution?" Suddenly, Rednos came back, looking a bit tipsy, but his attitude was the same as usual. Looking at table number 4, Zhao Heng was holding on, but he could no longer drink.

Kailin folded her arms and said, "Why are you here again? Are you just sitting there with nothing to do?"

He smiled slightly and sat back in his seat: "Yeah, I heard something interesting, how could I miss it?"

"You really love to join in the fun." Kailin said a little angrily.

"You're right again. I just love to join in the fun." He took a sip of whiskey in his hand and looked at Keli again. "So, Ms. Keli, can you tell me what that special physique you mentioned is?"
