Mystery: Lucky One

While patiently tasting the marinated meat, Alice also listened to the chats of other customers in the restaurant.

In the port restaurants, the most common customers are actually not pirates, adventurers and sailors, but more passing tourists and wealthy businessmen.

As for those people... Alice thought about it for a moment and realized that those people were more likely to be found in pubs and casinos than in serious restaurants.

Therefore, the tavern in the port will be more dangerous...Hey, will it be more valuable?
Alice blinked twice and remembered the wanted notices from the church.

Then, she remembered her pitiful fighting ability and lowered her head silently.

Well, it seems that this is not a way to get rich that is suitable for her. The way to get rich that is really suitable for her is to go to the casino to gamble... No, if she wins too much, she will be taught a lesson by the casino, right?

Alice silently covered her face with her hands.

In other words, if she wants to make money through gambling, she needs to keep changing casinos and control the amount of money she wins in each casino... It's too difficult, and it doesn't matter if she doesn't make the money.

Might as well have the extravagant hope of "The Sinking Laurel"!
According to legend, more than a hundred years ago, this ship returned carrying the gold jewelry and various valuables that Roen obtained from East Balam.

Unfortunately, due to deviation from the channel, the ship eventually sank in an unknown place in the Raging Sea and the Sunian Sea, and has not been found to this day.

Alice believes that it is not difficult to recover and salvage the sunken ship through extraordinary means. In this case, the fact that the Laurel has not been found can only mean that it has a problem, and it is not an ordinary problem.

It is said that the items on it are worth millions of pounds in total.

As far as Alice knows, Roen has started trading titles. A Lord, that is, a Baron, only costs 30 pounds, and a Baron only requires 80 pounds.

Most of the time, these rich people only own fixed assets, and the real liquidity is not as high as people think. Millions of pounds of liquid cash pouring into the market is enough to put Backlund into inflation.

In other words, if the "Sunken Laurel" is successfully salvaged, the title of a baron will be at least a minimum. Even a viscount and an earl are not unthinkable...

This kind of ship full of gold and jewelry that finally sank was not uncommon in the era that Alice remembered.

But it's different here. This is an era with extraordinary people and true gods. If the Laurel has not been found for more than a hundred years, it can only explain one problem - the benefits gained from retrieving the Laurel are different from the sacrifices made. The effort doesn't match.

Alice interrupted the mess in her mind in time and thought of another question.

Moreover, this is a ship that is almost entirely filled with gold and jewelry, which means that it is millions of pounds of liquid capital!
This is not the same concept as having assets of millions of pounds - just look at Miss Justice.

Next, if the invisible hand of the market cannot get it back, and the country cannot intervene strongly enough, Loen will face the risk of economic crisis... No, stop, don't think about it anymore!

Maybe there are some strange sealed objects on it... Well, it sounds like some kind of hidden mission or hidden dungeon. It can be triggered after completing the prerequisites. If the strategy is successful, you can get a lot of rewards...

Alice suddenly found that she was even more excited. She coldly cut off a piece of bacon and stuffed it into her mouth, trying to wake herself up by the spices spreading in her mouth.

…Don’t think about things from this perspective!
After successfully suppressing her wandering thoughts, Alice tried to focus back on the special marinated meat. She succeeded, but also failed.

As slices of bacon were cut off, Alice gradually felt full, and she began to worry about another problem.

I don’t know if high-sequence people can eat without worrying about overeating, or if any extraordinary person of any sequence has the ability to have similar effects... Hey, the "Stealer" path should be fine, right? Can Amon steal the food in his stomach?

Alice missed Amon again, but she quickly woke up and interrupted this dangerous idea - forget about other "thieves", it is absolutely impossible for Amon to steal only the food in his stomach!
He can directly steal the stomach, or he can try to steal the gastric mucosa and let the gastric acid directly contact the stomach. He can also... uh, has Amon studied biology or human anatomy?
Alice blinked twice and suddenly realized that her idea was redundant - Amon may not have learned it, but as a kind of knowledge, as long as there is in this world, Alice has no doubt that Amon has stolen it.

...So, isn't Amon a kind of encyclopedia?
A. Encyclopedia Mon knew nothing about it.

After finally finishing the special marinated meat, Alice reluctantly left the restaurant.

After the incident in Bansi Port, the current routes of all ships from Pulitzer Port to Bayam are basically the same.

Normally, these passenger ships will stop at Damir Port and Tiana Port once each to replenish fresh water and food before finally arriving in Bayam.

Thinking of this, Alice paused slightly. She suddenly remembered the inland food on the menu, which was obviously more expensive, and recalled the food on the passenger ship, and her mood was a little strange.

Even though she lacked sailing experience, Alice quickly realized that there was a high probability that not all ships would have fresh food like the Saint-Furian...

If the ship cannot dock every few days to replenish food and fresh water, then the shelf life of the food carried on the ship will become an important criterion.

Alice shuddered as she imagined how long she had to live on compressed biscuits, bacon, salted fish, and canned food.

Although she understood that if that situation really happened, the sea would probably be a source of food, but... it wasn't much better!
Alice looked in the direction of the dock and murmured:

“It would be great if fish in the sea could have many different flavors…

"In this way, there are milk-flavored fish, beef-flavored fish, bread-flavored fish, fish with various flavors...

"It feels a bit like genetically modified organisms... But genetically modified organisms can't actually do this, right? At least not in my impression...

"Speaking of which, the Earth Mother Goddess can hybridize creatures, I wonder if it can be done...

"If it can be done, then eating will become a blind box. You never know what the next bite will taste like...Hey, this seems to be very interesting?" Note ①

Alice was tempted by the idea, then put it behind her and happily returned to the ship.

As for specialties? Of course, we will talk about it when we return home. (End of chapter)
