Chapter 380 Noble Ball
Chiyan Imperial Capital, the core area of the nobility.
At night, the core area where the nobles live is like a bright and restrained pearl, and the hazy light seems to divide this place from the outside world into two worlds.
Mansions of different styles are scattered in the middle, with spires towering into the sky, exquisite doors and windows and complicated eaves, all of which show the antiquity and glory of the family.
This area is tightly guarded, and law enforcers in exquisite uniforms patrol the streets regularly. They walk in neat steps, look alert, and meticulously protect the safety of the nobles.
From time to time, several elegant and decent nobles pass by on the street. They are either going to attend court banquets or to social gatherings. Their elegant manners and lofty temperament complement this area.
Here, every inch of air is filled with the breath of wealth and power.
"Brother, a total of 1,000 bottles of extraordinary potions were distributed from above. We secretly withheld half of them... Isn't that a bit too much?" Gongyang Shi said worriedly in Gongyang Mansion. Gongyang Yu, whom he called his elder brother, said angrily: "You stupid guy, let me ask you, who are the extraordinary potions distributed from above for?" "To the military." "Then where do you work, brother?" "In the military." "So, isn't this distributed to me!" "But... I'm worried about the above..." "What are you worried about? The world is in chaos now. How can His Majesty have the energy to keep an eye on the inside? She can't even take care of the coastal cities. Besides, I don't know how to deal with these 500 bottles. It was not embezzled, but distributed to the personal soldiers of our Gongyang family, which is completely legal and compliant!
Your Majesty meant to distribute the extraordinary potion to the soldiers, I did it, what's the problem? "
"Brother, but you didn't send these personal soldiers to the battlefield, this..."
Gongyang Yu sighed: "Second brother, if I send all the people to the battlefield, who will protect our Gongyang family's huge family business? There must be a family before there is a country. As the head of the Gongyang family, if I don't protect the family first, then How to protect the Chiyan Empire?
I know what you are worried about. Don't be fooled by the news. It's not that nightmare invasions haven't happened before. Wasn't the nightmare invasion resolved during the first king's reign? "
Gong Yangshi hesitated: "But I see that this time the momentum is huge, and there is also the arrogant who is suspected to be a god..."
Gong Yangyu waved his hand: "You didn't miss the last court meeting. Didn't His Majesty say that arrogant can't enter the world at all? Besides, if the sky falls, there are tall people to support it. The Seventh King is still here. Is it your turn to worry?
Let's go quickly. The ball is about to start. I tell you, the ball organized by Lord Situ this time is not ordinary. Come on, put on the mask. "
"Mask? What do you wear a mask for?"
"Hehe... You don't understand this. This is a masquerade. Many stars, noble ladies, and noble ladies came. After putting on the mask, no one knows who it is, so you can let go. "
Gong Yangshi looked at the hollow pattern mask in his hand. After putting it on, it can only cover the eyes.
"How can I not know who this is?"
After the two men left, a dark shadow quietly followed.
Lin Canyang followed the two brothers Gongyang to a secret manor. The entrance was heavily guarded, with at least ten silver law enforcers.
Seeing this scene, Lin Canyang's face was cold.
Hmph! What a noble! When the leader gave him the task before, he didn't quite believe it. With the crisis of annihilation ahead, how could the nobles be so short-sighted? Today, he saw it.
Pocket-lining, living a life of luxury, masquerade...
The crisis of annihilation did not have any impact on the lives of the nobles, no, it did.
It made the nobles feel a sense of crisis. Taking advantage of the chaos in the empire, they frantically accumulated wealth and accumulated family power to increase their sense of security.
At this moment, he realized how different people's thoughts could be.
The thoughts of normal people are probably just a joke in the eyes of the nobles.
At today's ball, there are more than ten silver transcendents guarding alone, not counting the bodyguards brought by the nobles and the nobles themselves.
These imperial nobles are different from those in remote areas. They are basically transcendents, and there are even a few gold masters. Now they are all gathered together to attend the masquerade.
If all the transcendents gathered at the ball went to the front line, they would be enough to rival a fully armed army.
Lin Canyang stroked the bronze ring on his hand, thinking that with this golden treasure given by the leader, it would not be a problem to sneak into the ball quietly.
Then contact the leader and release a few nightmare creatures to see how you nobles can enjoy yourself!
In the dark banquet hall, the huge crystal chandelier casts a star-like bright light, reflecting on every guest.
This is the only light source in the ball. As the crystal chandelier rotates, rays of light of different colors illuminate the hall in bright or dark.
Slightly provocative music flows slowly, and the air is filled with sweet aromatherapy.
Wearing masks and dressed in cool clothes, men and women dance and sing in the dance floor, like a group of demons dancing wildly.
Here, men and women are free to pair up. Under the simple mask, they may be noble ladies from other families, or stars under the spotlight. Everything is possible.
Lin Canyang walked into the hall quietly. No one noticed the arrival of this uninvited guest. Some people even invited him because of his tall stature.
It was a woman wearing a short skirt made of silver sequins, with a black lace mask on her face. Her face, which was painted with foundation, was slightly loose, and her exposed waist was squeezed by the short skirt to reveal a small strip of fat like a swimming ring.
She put her hand on Lin Canyang: "Your mask is so strange, why is there a 1 on it, does it have any special meaning?"
Lin Canyang's eyes fell on the woman's face through the cold silver mask: "You will know soon."
The woman smiled: "Man, you have successfully aroused my interest, come on, dance with me."
Lin Canyang did not refuse, so as not to be seen as abnormal, he had to hug this middle-aged fat noble lady and sway in the middle of the dance floor.
He controlled his consciousness, and according to the method taught by the leader, his consciousness slowly rose and finally entered another dimension.
On the train to the coastal city, Su Mu was sitting in a carriage drinking coffee.
Beside him were Lin Nanxing and others, and in other carriages, there were nightmare apostles who were going to the coastal city together.
Su Mu gently put down the coffee cup, wiped the coffee foam from the corner of his mouth with a white napkin, and then his consciousness rose into the dream.
Above the endless white fog.
The projection of Pride and Lin Canyang's consciousness suddenly appeared.
"Leader, I have infiltrated the noble ball and now request support." Lin Canyang bowed his head and said respectfully.
Su Mu used Lin Canyang's perspective to see the extravagant and chaotic scene in the ball. He couldn't help but smile slightly: "Okay."
