All the diners had left, leaving only a few drunkards still bragging and spanking.
Kelly went to the bar and replaced her father.
Mom stir-fried the leftover meat and vegetables with macaroni, filling a big bowl, which was the couple's working meal.
"Alan, would you like some more food?" the mother asked her son.
"OK."
Allen sat back at the dining table and took a plate of fragrant macaroni from his mother.
When my family eats, they don’t pay much attention to the presentation.
The macaroni was fried by my mother to give it the flavor of dry-fried beef. It looks delicious!
The father took a sip of his home-brewed beer and said to his son seriously: "Kelly has already told me about the circus."
"I asked some regular customers and found out that the 'Surprise Circus' had left the town overnight and I heard they boarded the ship at the port."
"If you leave in such a hurry, you probably did something bad and feel guilty!"
The mother also joined in and lectured her son.
"When you go to the circus in the future, you must be accompanied by an adult, otherwise you may be abducted!"
"There are a lot of bad people out there! Didn't six children go missing on Molasses Island last year?"
Alan silently listened to his parents' nagging and buried himself in his food.
After finishing a large plate of macaroni, I stared at the empty plate in a daze.
Why don't I feel full after eating two dinners in a row?
Before time travel, his appetite was very ordinary.
After time travel, the original owner of this body, Alan Panthers, was indeed a foodie, and his appetite was much larger than that of his peers.
But after all, he was only a twelve-year-old boy. After eating enough food to feed three adults, he felt only half full, which was outrageous.
He thought of the "Taotie System".
In the world before time travel, "Taotie" refers to an ancient ferocious beast known for its gluttony. It can eat anything and never get enough.
Maybe I became a big eater because of the "Taotie System".
There is a more reasonable explanation.
In addition to maintaining one's own physiological needs, the food eaten into the stomach probably converts the remaining nutrients into energy, which is used to maintain the operation of the "taotie system".
…
the next day.
Allen continued the living habits he had developed in his previous life. He got up at 5:30 in the morning to wash up, packed his schoolbag, and went downstairs to the kitchen.
Last night, he made a plan to make full use of the convenience of running a tavern at home to collect various poisonous mushrooms and enrich the food guide!
At the back door of the kitchen, my mother was bargaining with the vegetable seller.
Allen walked over casually and looked through the fresh vegetables, fruits and mushrooms in the big basket.
The vegetable seller is not helpful!
After collecting such a large basket of fungi, only two poisonous mushrooms were mixed in!
Allen curled his lips in disappointment, took out two poisonous mushrooms and secretly stuffed them into his pocket.
Snapped!
His mother slapped him on the back, startling him.
"Stop being naughty and go eat quickly!" Mom said angrily.
fine……
Allen secretly breathed a sigh of relief.
Mom didn't notice his little trick of collecting poisonous mushrooms.
After quickly finishing his breakfast, Allen carried his schoolbag and went out.
It was just getting dark, and there wasn't even a soul on the street.
Not far from the pub, there is a dark alley.
The dark walls were covered with drunkard's vomit.
Allen turned into the alley and looked back twice.
Make sure your parents and sister can't see here, take out the mushrooms from your pocket, and try them starting with the less toxic "fly mushroom".
Level 1 poison resistance can resist the toxins contained in this mushroom.
After taking a bite, I felt nothing.
Checking the poison resistance bar, it has only increased a little.
It’s almost the same as when I ate tiger-striped amanita yesterday.
Next, Allen tried the more toxic "green mushroom".
This kind of mushroom turns blue when touched with your hands.
It tastes delicious when cooked, but eating it raw will cause poisoning, and it is a relatively powerful second-level toxin!
Chewing a small piece of green mushroom, Allen waited quietly.
This time, his poison resistance was finally broken through!
The vision gradually becomes blurry.
Colorful brilliance appeared in front of my eyes, as if I was observing a strange world through a kaleidoscope, and I couldn't help but feel blurred...
Level 1 poison resistance is not completely immune to level 2 poisons, but it can greatly reduce the harm of poisons.
The hallucination only lasted for a minute before he regained consciousness.
"Oh my god! It's so toxic!!"
Allen covered his hot forehead and muttered to himself.
Open the system, and a new entry has been added to the food guide:
Looking at the poison resistance bar again, it has obviously grown a lot!
Not bad!
Alan closed the system page with satisfaction.
From this point of view, if you eat a few more level 2 poisons, you can quickly increase your poison resistance to level 2.
It's a pity that each poison is useless after being eaten only once.
Ordinary people who consume a small amount of level 2 poisons are at risk of death, but it is not that easy to obtain.
Putting the remaining mushrooms into his pocket, Allen walked deep into the alley thoughtfully.
Through this alley, you can take a shortcut to the school.
At this moment, a hand suddenly stretched out from the alley, holding a wet handkerchief, and covered his face without any explanation!
Um?!
Allen was taken aback and struggled instinctively, but was held tightly by the attacker and could not escape for a while.
What's even worse is that the wet handkerchief covering his face gave off a pungent smell, making him feel dizzy and his consciousness gradually blurred...
At this time, a system prompt came to my mind.
""Mandraine (Level 2 toxin/narcotic) detected!"
Thanks to his toxin resistance, Allen was not completely comatose, but felt dizzy and weak, unable to exert any strength.
He squinted his eyes, pretended to be semi-conscious, and fell backward softly.
The kidnappers quickly helped him, half dragging and half supporting him, and forced him to walk out of the alley.
Taking advantage of the deserted street, he quickly walked towards the pier.
The anesthesia had not worn off yet, and Allen was unable to escape the kidnapper's coercion, but he was still conscious.
He smelled a strong scent of perfume from the other party.
The kidnapper is a woman?!
After about ten minutes, the woman took Allen to the second floor of a small hotel near the port.
Bang!
After closing the door, the woman let go of her hand.
Allen collapsed limply on the floor, his eyes closed tightly, and he looked unconscious.
"Huh... I'm so exhausted!"
The woman complained, took off her hat and windbreaker, and hung them on the hanger.
Allen observed secretly through the slits of his slightly narrowed eyes.
The kidnapper is a hot young woman with a pretty face that looks familiar.
After thinking about it for a while, Allen remembered.
Yesterday at the circus, this woman had performed on stage as a magician's assistant, and because her clothes were too revealing, she left a deep impression on him.
Now it seems that this woman is obviously a habitual kidnapper, and she is quite strong. She must have practiced martial arts!
