870 Resonance Stage 2 (1/2)

Clint, on the other hand, went to sniff at it. It seemed to be very fragrant, and smelled like lemons. All of a sudden a large hand reached over, picked up the cup and poured half of the alcohol inside into another empty cup.

”You can't drink so much on your own, this portion is for the two of you!” Yellow Beard laughed heartily, picking up his own cup again and guzzling it madly.

”Thanks, uncle.”

Clint looked at the cups hesitantly, and reached out his hand to pass one cup to Baylon.

”Are we really going to drink that?” Baylon asked hesitantly.

”Just try a little...” reminded Red Moon softly. ”Everything in the radiation belt is very dangerous.”

”Got it.” Clint nodded, and bent down to lick the wine lightly with the tip of his tongue. Instantly, a refreshingly sour, intense taste of alcohol entered his mouth.

Urk...

It was just a little, but his face was already turning red, the things in front of him beginning to sway.

Baylon was even faster. While he was still slightly dizzy, Baylon had simply collapsed onto the bar counter with a thud, and lay there unmoving.

Clint opened his mouth and tried to speak, but his lips felt numb and swollen, and he could barely make any noise at all.

Bam!

He collapsed onto the bar as well.

”Eh?” The yellow bearded uncle looked at them in surprise, and was instantly speechless. ”These two kiddos can't even take that little bit of wine? I've been holding back, y'know?”

”You settled it so quickly?” Only then did Big Sister Wu Dan walk to the counter, looking at the two young ones who were passed out. ”Them?”

”Too weak, they fell just by tasting some Yellow Lemon,” the yellow bearded uncle shrugged.

Wutan was quite tempted, a hint of struggle flashing through her eyes.

Similarly, the yellow bearded uncle also glanced at her, with a similarly unknown emotion rising in his eyes.

The two of them did not have any ill intentions to begin with, but now, with such a great opportunity...

Wutan clenched her teeth, and turned her head away, reluctance flashing through her eyes.

”Bring them in, Lil' Four is running out of time, if we have these two...”

Yellow Beard sighed, and glanced at the two young ones.

”Don't blame us... We had no choice, either.”

He got up and lifted them, one in each arm, before striding towards the small door behind the bar counter.

The bartenders and the other people seemed completely used to it, they had no intention of moving at all.

One of the bartenders glanced at the two young ones who were being carted away.

”Hoho, two fresh ones, one boy and one girl. The girl can be deflowered immediately and sold to the brothel, but the boy is quite a looker too, smooth skin and juicy flesh. Recently there have fewer meat pigs, huh? Such fresh produce is really hard to find now. The last time I had a pie, the meat inside wasn't all that fresh anymore.” He lit a cigarette and puffed nonchalantly.

”The Boss and the leaders are all here, they should be able to get a good price for that. That woman Wu Dan is going to get rich,” continued the other bouncer with a laugh.

”That's a matter of luck as well, she walked out and caught two little lambs just like that.”

Clint was picked up and brought away dazedly, but he was not completely out of it, and he had heard their words perfectly clearly. His heart instantly sank.

”The situation's terrible.” Red Moon's voice was slightly anxious as well. At first, he had not thought that Clint and Baylon would so inexperienced as to collapse with just a little wine. Wutan and the others did not really have bad intentions to begin with, so he did not really remind them, but now that the two of them were sitting ducks, the situation was going from bad to worse.

”Clint! Clint! Wake up! Wake up now!!” He kept yelling Clint's name, trying to wake him up. If he had not fallen asleep because he used his power too much consequently before, and now all his power could only barely maintain his consciousness, he would be able to remove the alcohol from Clint's body right now with the power of the Forbidden Mech.

”I... I...” Clint was barely conscious, but he was as anxious as Red Moon inside. The only problem was that he could not move his body at all.

Red Moon was boiling over with rage as well, he had lost all his powers, and now thanks to one moment's carelessness, Clint and Baylon were in such a dangerous state. This was really bad.

Clint and Baylon could not use their Willpower at all when they were away from their Mechs. And he did not have any power at all as well right now. If they were not careful, Clint might become the first inheritor of the Forbidden Mech to be easily killed off by normal people.
