Chapter 14: The Masquerade (I)

Man Yi walked into Liu Yu's room with three escort girls, and Man Yi said, "Girls, this is Liu Gongzi who invited you to tonight's ball." These three are Masako, Reina, and Reiko, so let's get to know each other. ”

Liu Yu looked up and saw that there were three fox clan escort girls who came in. They are bewitching and charming, and their bodies are bumpy and convex. On the pointed melon seed face, a pair of big watery eyes are full of the charm unique to the fox clan. All three of them were dressed in translucent black wrap-around backless evening dresses, with long wavy blond hair scattered behind their backs, and as they walked forward, their long hair fluttered, and their bare white backs loomed.

Seeing the graceful three fox escort girls walking in front of him, Liu Yu couldn't help but secretly admire, he had long heard that the fox woman was the most amorous woman among the orcs. From the glimpse in front of the door of the dungeon before entering the dungeon, to the close observation in the room, the five fox girls I saw were all the best of the best. Even as a human being, seeing such an orc woman, he also had a heart-pounding feeling.

"Xiaoman, you did a good job, we are very satisfied with these three girls, this is the tea money for them. With that, Liu Yu took out 300,000 gold coins and handed them to Man Yi, asking him to transfer them to the three fox girls.

This time, the ball was held in a luxurious ballroom on the eighth floor of the hotel. This is a small dance hall, the diameter of the dance floor is about 20 meters, divided into two floors, in addition to the dance floor, around the dance floor is a circle of leather sofas for resting, the coffee table in front of the sofa is placed a variety of precious fruits and delicate snacks. Upstairs is a row of rooms with different décor, the only thing that is the same is that there is a bed in each room.

When Liu Yu and the three of them packed up, put on the masks they had chosen and the three fox girls appeared here, there were already many people in the dance hall. They were talking to each other, or they were whispering in the corner with their female companions, tasting delicious pastries and fruits. Everyone wears masks of different shapes on their faces, some are in the shape of various divine beasts, some are the faces of the heroes of the beast clan, some are the masks worn by the shamans when presiding over the sacrifice, and some are so exaggerated that you can't tell what they are.

After confirming the qualifications to enter at the door of the dance hall, Liu Yu and the three walked in with their female companions. The three of them scattered, Liu Yu took Lingzi, Zhang Tianqi took Lina, and Zhou Sheng took Yazi to find a table with no one and sat down, carefully looking at the environment of the dance hall. The official ball has not yet begun, and the organizers have not yet arrived, so the people who come to the ball gather in groups and chat.

Liu Yu chose a shaman's beast god mask and wore a black shaman's robe. Zhou Sheng chose the fox god mask and wore a golden power suit. Zhang Tianqi chose the bear god mask and wore a fur shoulder. After Liu Yu sat down, he looked around at the other guests who had come to the ball. There are about 30 pairs of guests present, basically a man with a maid hired at the hotel, and no one is with his own family members. Think about it, who would bring their wife or girlfriend on such an occasion?

Next to the dance floor, there is a band of the Soil Duck Clan, playing soothing music, and the soft sound of the music calms people's moods. The magic lamps hanging above the dance floor also emit a soft light, enveloping the entire ballroom, and the faint fire element gently fluctuates, giving people a warm feeling. Liu Yu closed his eyes, leaned on the sofa, and listened to this beautiful melody quietly. Suddenly, a voice came into Liu Yu's ears.

"Kasagi-kun, this is the fifth time that Mr. Kuroki has organized such a ball. A shrill voice said.

"Hojo-kun, what's wrong with this? Anyway, just have fun, think about what to do so much. The man known as Kasagi said lazily.

"I always felt that something was wrong, Kuroki had never heard of this man in the Empire, and no one knew where he came from. He has lived here for a long time and often organizes events at his own expense. I didn't see him running any business, and he didn't look like a hereditary descendant of nobility. Where do you think he got so much money to spend here?" Hojo said confusedly, "And the strangest thing is that the first four balls he organized never brought a female companion, and each time he sat there alone and watched the others dance. You say he doesn't dance himself, what is the purpose of organizing such a ball?"

"It doesn't matter what his purpose is, he pays for it, wouldn't it be nice for us to have fun. You're just thinking too much. Hojo-kun, life is alive, time is so short. If you don't have fun in time, how can you be worthy of yourself?, just have fun, the dance is about to start, do you have a crush on any girl?" said Kasagi impatiently.

Listening to the conversation between these two people, Liu Yu's heart was also a little strange. As an organizer of an event, if he didn't actively participate, then why would he do it? And according to Hojo, this Mr. Kuroki is very mysterious, and no one knows where he came from. The people who can come here to spend will not be ordinary people, either nobles or rich people. There shouldn't be too many elites like this in the orcs, so how could no one know him?

Thinking of this, Liu Yu also found a problem that was ignored by the three of them, that is, the identity of the three of them. They can pretend to be rich, but what kind of identity do they have? People of unknown origin can easily arouse suspicion, but they cannot meet nobles in the orc territory, and there is no one to prove their identity. In some small places, it can also be pretended, and when it comes to the provincial capital where the aristocracy is relatively concentrated, it is easy to be exposed. If the identity is revealed, it will be even more difficult to leave the orc territory than to ascend to the sky. Tonight's dance is over, and it's time to study the issue and see how we can come up with a plausible identity that won't be suspected.

As the music of the Groundhog Orcs slowly fell, a man wearing a miserable white skull mask, including his hands, and his whole body wrapped in a black hooded magic robe, stepped into the center of the stage. Due to the fact that the magic robe was very fat, and he was wearing a hat, it was impossible to tell whether he was male or female, fat or thin. can only roughly judge that his height is about 1.7 meters, which is not very tall.

A voice that was deliberately lowered and hoarse sounded, "Good evening, guests, and welcome to the masquerade hosted by my Kuroki. I'm sure every guest here has already understood the rules I've set, so I won't repeat them. Then everyone can enjoy the party, and I hope everyone can have a passionate and enjoyable evening. With that, Mr. Kuroki walked to the edge of the dance floor and sat down on a couch.

As soon as Kuroki's words fell, the sound of the Soil Rats Band sounded again. However, this time it is no longer a soothing and calming piece, but a tune with a very strong sense of rhythm, and after listening to it, people feel a sense of excitement, and they want to dance to the music unconsciously. Then the lights began to flicker, and the light and shade of the lights cut the dance floor into a colorful scene.

Many of the guests were obviously not attending such a dance party for the first time, and as soon as the music started, they walked onto the dance floor and danced wildly. Sitting on the sofa and not dancing to the music, only the person who called himself Kuroki and Liu Yu and a few other people remained. The lights on the dance floor dimmed, and only a figure could be seen writhing wildly.

Zhang Tianqi is enjoying it now, he is already very active, and when he heard such music, he immediately became excited, and pulled up the fox girl Lina who came with him and danced together. The people on the dance floor are like obsessed, constantly twisting their bodies to the rhythm, and they can't tell what kind of dance they are dancing, anyway, they just need to move. Zhang Tianqi was already very tall, even compared with the lion clan and tiger clan in the beast clan, he did not look short. Coupled with the fact that he has been conducting military training all the time, he is very burly. Wearing a fur shoulder, revealing a pair of thick and strong arms. Coupled with the bear god mask he was wearing, there was a fierce aura exuding.

Although Zhang Tianqi is not very proficient in dancing, his concise and powerful movements, combined with the rhythmic music played by the Soil Pumping Band, have a unique beauty. Pulling Rina to do all kinds of fancy movements, and from time to time spinning and throwing Rina into the air, and then catching it steadily.

This fox escort girl has obviously undergone strict training, although it is the first time to dance with Zhang Tianqi, but the cooperation between the two can be said to be seamless. Zhang Tianqi's movements are strong and powerful, and Lina is soft and charming. Whenever Lina was thrown high in the air by Zhang Tianqi and spun, her long hair fluttered and her clothes fluttered, like an elf flying in the air.

Gradually, the people on the dance floor stopped, making room for the two of them to perform to their heart's content. attracted everyone's attention, and Zhang Tianqi worked harder. The pace moved faster and faster, and the movements in the hands were even more varied, and under his leadership, the two of them suddenly separated, and suddenly clinged together.

Zhang Tianqi's left hand held Lina's right hand, and his right hand gently wrapped Lina's slender waist, Lina's left hand was on Zhang Tianqi's shoulder, and the two stood facing each other. Zhang Tianqi took a step forward with his left foot, and Lina's right heel took a step back with Zhang Tianqi's left foot. Immediately afterwards, Zhang Tianqi's right foot stepped forward again, leading Lina's left foot to take another step back. Then Zhang Tianqi turned around and half, took a step to the left with his left foot, and took a half step with his right foot to the right back. The movement of footsteps is dominated by Zhang Tianqi, he retreats when he enters Linai, he retreats and the other party advances, and when he turns around, the other party follows him.

The more proficient the pace becomes, the faster the speed. The music played by the Soil Whash Band became more rapid, and in the end, the two of them were spinning like spinning tops, and Lina completely relied on the support of Zhang Tianqi's hands to avoid being led by him to fall. When the music ended, Zhang Tianqi threw Lina into the air again, and then quickly chased after him. At the moment before Lina was about to land, Zhang Tianqi hugged Lina's waist with his right hand, a 360-degree turn, and at the same time as the music ended, he also stopped steadily.

When the music ended and the lights came on again, the crowd of onlookers couldn't help but applaud their wonderful performance.
