Novel Bin Chapter 135: Assimilation (6)
He could produce wine with his saliva!
He gathered saliva on his tongue and gulped it down.
The taste was bland.
It was like his saliva was normal, yet the color was different! He obviously produces wine now, so how could the taste be bland?
\'I am sober, right? Yeah, I\'m not shouting that I love everyone and everything related to archery, and the world doesn\'t seem like on my palm, so I should be sober,\' Jake calmed himself down. He would regret if he were to say that he loves Viktor as a friend because he\'d given him Fletcher subclass and high-quality arrows for free.
He gulped down; it was a natural reaction this time.
\'Since I make wine naturally, it wouldn\'t be weird for me to be drunk all the time. I must be held back by something… that\'s so fortunate!\' Jake inwardly thanked for this limit or disadvantage!
He was quick on the uptake, though.
\'Any liquid will make me drunk! I was so nervous at the restaurant that I hadn\'t eaten and drank anything with Prince and Sin!\' Jake exclaimed.
If he were to drink water or tea with them, he\'d get drunk!
The siblings are older than him, so they would notice!
Jake clenched his hand, \'No way I get so drunk with just a tea. I must confirm it!\'
Jake abruptly stood up and went to the table without caring about anyone. He picked up a glass bottle of water and sipped, wetting his throat.
He opened his game system and eagerly waited for its message.
[You have drank water.]
[The water has been turned into a wine.]
[Your drunk level has been increased by 0,001%.]
\'The taste is so bland, though!\' Jake said. He had been nervous until now, but those messages calmed him down. He obviously wouldn\'t become as drunk as he had been after stealing the legendary boss.
He didn\'t swim in the wine, after all.
He\'d have to drink a lot of water to become truly drunk.
He also would piss, so this percentage level would bounce up and down quite a lot with just water alone.
\'So… the taste is bland, meaning I somewhat control this alcohol intake… I need to research more into Dionysus or level up and see whether this legendary skill evolves along with me. I might be too weak for it now. I just hope I can get more control of it in the future.\' Jake thought.
While he could avoid potions or any significant liquids that would make his drunk level go high, he couldn\'t avoid water as he naturally required it.
That said, he didn\'t feel thirsty at all. He only drank water to verify his worst thoughts.
\'Does it mean I no longer get thirsty? That\'s pretty awesome,\' Jake thought. The water had been as succulent as usual, after all.
Jake thought the taste was bland because it was nowhere comparable to the wine he had drank and assimilated with.
This meant that Jake would no longer get thirsty but could still enjoy water and other liquids.
\'Isn\'t it similar to my companions?\' Jake thought. His recent experience with Master\'s seniors—the dogs—made him appreciate his summons\' unique build.
It could be argued that Jake was in a game, so nature problems weren\'t considered for players\' sake and enjoyment. The reality, however, was that Jake\'s pets were built different.
Beast tamers would be pretty jealous of him. Experience tales on NovelFire _emp _y,r.
Jake hadn\'t tested potions.
Mana was always a problem for him because he had so little of it.
The epic ring he\'d received from Prince was an absolute lifesaver!
Jake still had mana and health potions in his equipment. The latter would be useful if he were to level up in dangerous zones. His epic ring also wouldn\'t last forever…
Whipping out a mana potion, Jake silently looked at it.
It was bland and nowhere near close to the tasty water.
No one cared about potions and forced them into their mouths to regain some of their stats.
Now that Jake was built different, the mana potion weighed more.
It became so significant… and like a prerequisite to an unwanted transformation!
\'Whatever happens, happens,\' Jake said before gulping down an entire potion.
He didn\'t forget to use a skill to lose mana potions.
[You have drunk a small mana potion.]
[The small mana potion has been turned into a wine.]
[Your drunk level has been increased by 0,50%.]
[The small mana potion\'s effect has been increased by 100%]
Jake\'s eyes widened in surprise!
This increase meant that he could drink one potion, and it would regenerate his mana like two potions! It was a blessing for him since he really didn\'t want to invest in his intelligence to increase mana points!
The drunk level was his weakness, but Jake would have to drink quite a lot to become drunk.
Given that the drunk level at which he lost himself and became a reckless lover of archery was around one hundred percent, he could control his intake of potions and be careful with it.
His drunk level also should fall with time.
\'The more drunk I am, the better the effects! I should get drunk up to one hundred percent to unveil the drunk stages and how each stage increases the effects of potions! Master Aaron likes to drink his green whiskey, so I might do it in his workplace! It\'s not like me drunk can\'t work! I love archery as much while drunk, so I can work for sure! Alright!
I will get drunk today!\' Jake thought.
After testing the new legendary skill, Jake turned his eyes to the second legendary skill he\'d received.
He smiled and called out his fourth companion, "Want to go first, my lady?"
Medusa peeked from his pocket, her eyes shining golden.
She was raring to give the assimilation a go!
