At the foot of Longji Snow Mountain, fine snow is flying, as if the whole world is dyed white.

As the surroundings became quieter and quieter, the figures of Qianyu and Shatang gradually blended into this white world.

"Well, it should be here." Sucrose looked at the cards in her hand, then looked around and nodded with certainty.

At this moment, her body was trembling slightly because of the cold. Seeing this scene, Qianyu's hands flickered with a faint light.

"Mr. Qianyu, this is..." As the faint light surrounded Satang's body, she immediately felt a warm breath spreading throughout her body.

"It's okay, it's just some small magic." Qianyu said softly. Hearing this, Shatang's face turned slightly red.

"Thank you." She whispered. Then, the two of them walked deeper into the snowy mountains.

They walked lightly, leaving deep footprints with every step, and the depressions behind them were eventually buried by ice and snow again...

On the other side, in the Dadaupa Valley, the sun was shining and the breeze was blowing. Diona was seen squatting beside a small lake, holding a bottle in her hand, and seemed to be collecting something.

She looked at the lake intently with a serious expression.

"Hehe, it looks like there's nothing unusual here for the time being." Paimon said with a smile, his hands on his hips, a relaxed smile on his face.

At this moment, Ying and Paimon were hiding behind a big tree not far from Diona, carefully observing her every move.

"We can't let our guard down either." Ying retracted his gaze, turned his head to look at Paimeng, and said with a serious expression: "After all, Captain Qin went out in person, which shows that this matter must be very complicated..."

As soon as Ying finished her words, when she looked back at the place she had just been at, she was surprised to find that Diona had disappeared.

"Strange Paimon, did you see where she went?" Ying frowned and asked in confusion.

"Huh? I clearly saw her there just now..." Paimon was also very puzzled and looked around for Diona.

However, at this moment, Diona suddenly emerged from the bushes behind the tree and asked seriously:

"Hey, what are you two doing sneaking around here?!" Her eyes were sharp, staring at Ying and Paimon, her tail wagging behind her.

Paimon suddenly felt guilty, his eyes were wandering, and he didn't dare to look Diona in the eye.

"Um, that...we are..."

"We are here to take risks, right?" Ying suddenly had an idea and quickly made up a lie, hoping to get away with it.

Hearing this, Paimeng suddenly realized and nodded in agreement:

"Yes, yes, yes. We accepted a commission from the Adventurer's Guild and came here to explore." She said seriously, as if it were true.

However, Diona was not fooled by their lies. She just shook her head, her expression still very serious.

"The Adventurer's Guild wouldn't let you follow a bartender, would it?" Diona asked bluntly, with a hint of displeasure in her tone.

"Um...you know everything?" Paimon muttered softly, groaning inwardly.

"Humph, your little trick of hiding behind trees is something I got tired of when I was a kid."

"Tell me the truth now, what is your purpose? Otherwise, I will not be polite!" Diona crossed her arms in front of her chest, looking unquestionable.

"Let me make it clear in advance that we have absolutely no ill intentions." Paimon explained, and then told the other party about the monster riot nearby.

Hearing this, Diona let down her guard a little.

"I see...Okay, I wrongly blamed you, but next time you follow someone, remember to stay away from them."

“Ahahaha… Really…”

"So we should pay attention next time?"

Hearing this, Ying and Paimeng smiled awkwardly.

However, Diona did not continue to pay attention to the other party. She took out the materials she had collected earlier, then integrated them one by one and put them into the cocktail shaker.

Seeing this, Paimon stepped forward curiously and asked, "Has Diona already collected the materials?"

"Not really, but it's great that you're here, why don't you help me try this new special drink?" Diona invited.

"Of course no problem." Paimon agreed.

But when Diona opened the shaker, they were instantly shocked by what was inside.

"Lizard tail, butterfly wings, and..." Ying looked at the special tune in front of her and felt goosebumps all over her body.

"Um... Diona, are you sure these drinks are drinkable? Of course I'm not questioning your skills..." Paimon asked doubtfully.

She still remembered the scene when Qianyu was mixing drinks, which were basically fruits and the like...

Now seeing these strange ingredients that Diona took out, it is really hard to imagine what kind of flavors they can produce.

After seeing Ying and Paimon showing such solemn expressions, Diona smiled confidently and said, "Don't worry, my special blend is unique. Come and try it!"

Seeing this, Paimon showed a sly smile on his face, and then handed the special drink to Ying: "Ying, in this case, then you can try it."

"Paimon..." Ying looked at Paimon helplessly, but when she saw Diona's expectant eyes, she couldn't help but soften her heart.

Facing the special blend so close to her, she hesitated for a moment, but decided to give it a try. So she closed her eyes and took a sip.

To her surprise, the horrible taste she had imagined did not appear. On the contrary, it was actually quite delicious.

She just smiled and gave Diona a thumbs up.

"Delicious! But it seems a bit too thick..." she commented.

"Eh?!"

Hearing this, Paimon couldn't help but widen her eyes. She looked at the half lizard tail floating on the surface of the special tune and wondered if she had heard it wrong.

“How could this happen…” Diona muttered to herself in disappointment. Her voice was filled with frustration and confusion, as if she couldn’t accept the facts before her. “I made it taste like this, how could it still taste good!”

"You must be kidding..." Her eyes widened and her face was full of disbelief.

"Strange, shouldn't I feel happy when receiving praise from customers?" Paimon asked with her head tilted, her eyes revealing curiosity and confusion.

"Humph, this kind of thing is not worth being happy about..." Diona pouted and shook her head gently to show her disapproval.

"I always feel like you don't want to be able to mix delicious wine?" Paimon blinked, trying to understand Diona's thoughts.

"Because I want to completely destroy Mond Wine Industry and make sure those drunkards never dare to drink any special drinks again!" Diona said with a hint of determination in her tone.

"Ah?" Upon hearing this, Ying and Paimeng felt even more confused.

Looking at the two people's puzzled expressions, Diona finally couldn't help but sigh.

It turned out that her father was the leader of Qingquan Town. She remembered that when she was a child, every time she watched her father return with a full load after hunting, she felt a sense of pride in her heart.

However, this heroic father image was completely gone after he got drunk in front of her for the first time...

"Stupid dad, you can't drink much, but you still like to drink. Every time you get drunk, you're like a wild boar falling into the mud..." Diona said angrily, with her hands on her hips, her face full of anger and dissatisfaction.

"Um... I seem to understand a little bit..." Ying asked tentatively, with a hint of helplessness in her eyes.

"Right? You feel the same way, right? Bad guys like this must be completely eradicated from Mond!" Diona said firmly, with a gleam of determination in her eyes.

After saying that, Diona turned and walked deeper into the canyon, her steps firm and powerful.

"Wait a minute Diona, what are you going to do..." Ying asked in confusion when she saw Diona suddenly change direction.

"I'm going to the nearby Hilichurl camp to collect another special material - a raw material that can turn any special mixture into an extremely foul smell." Diona answered seriously.

"Go to the Hilichurl camp?" Hearing this, Paimon suddenly remembered what Captain Jean said, and quickly said, "No, no, this is too dangerous. Let's go with you."

Diona glanced at the two of them, nodded in agreement, and the three of them walked together towards the deepest part of the Dadaupa Valley.

Just as they were about to reach the Hilichurl camp, Diona suddenly discovered that there seemed to be two people squatting next to the entrance of the camp.

On the hillside not far away, a figure in a green cloak passed by quickly like the wind.

"Yohu~"
