Chapter 21 The Hunting Field

Before night could come, candles were lit above Xiangye City. Although the massive search and destruction of the festive atmosphere, people with beautiful hopes still insist on lighting the beacon that represents desire.

The streets of Xiangye City have become brightly lit, and tonight, no one can sleep here.

According to the rules, the Purple Loren Song and Dance Group will perform during prime time at 8 p.m.

The girls must enter the venue early at five o'clock, put on makeup, final rehearsal and other preparations.

Dess noticed that Clarice's eyes were red, and she asked the leader softly: "What's wrong? Clarice."

Clarice quickly replied: "Nothing, it's just a little nervous."

Ranti hurried over and shouted, "I didn't see Fink, I didn't see him today. It's a hell, today is our big day, where did he run?"

"He was in the theater, and he said he wanted to watch the performances of other song and dance troupes first, and then compare them to see who performed better." Clarice replied.

"Then you have to ask? Of course it's us. We are the best singing and dancing troupe in the country!" Lanti replied proudly: "I will let him see my best performance tonight."

"Okay, stop talking about this. I'm going to enter the venue. Let's go put on makeup. Baby." Clarice urged her.

As the most luxurious theater with the most luxurious facilities in the Shanye City, Lanya Theater is a semicircular structure with large stages and advanced facilities. It can accommodate about 8,000 guests at a time.

The charges here are also very standard. For ordinary seats, there are as high as twenty silver wits, while for high-end private rooms, there are three to five golden wits. On average, the price of each location is almost thirty silver wits.

After a performance, as long as the theater is full, the revenue of the theater can reach 2,400 Jinweits, and the singing and dancing troupe will get at least 800 Jinweits from it.

However, if the performance is broken or the business is not good, the singing and dancing troupe will also pay up to one Jinweit to the theater.

On the top floor of the theater, there is a large open-air platform, which is where the nobles hold cocktail parties. Senior nobles often choose to hold cocktail parties on the platform while watching performances, which can bring them a double feeling of pleasure. It also allows some nobles who are not interested in opera to find their own place in the Lanya Colosseum.

Occasionally, the nobles would invite the singers who performed well to the platform. They drank and chatted here, and did not mind spending a sum of money to bring a girl they liked back to their room that night for the night.

Therefore, some people call the open-air platform a beauty hunting ground.

Claris didn't know that before her singing and dancing troupe entered Lanya, Xiuyi was already in this beauty hunting field.

On this open-air platform representing the highest level of Xiangye City, Xiu Yi was enjoying the surroundings leisurely.

This open-air platform, known as the Hunting Field, is known for its luxury and gorgeousness even throughout the entire Lance Empire.

The entire open-air platform is built at the top of the theater, forming an elliptical building. Two winding spiral ladders extend from the top and down.

The luxurious red carpet starts from the spiral staircase and extends to the entire platform.

The base is carved from large pieces of jade, and the railings are carved with exquisite patterns.

On both sides of the platform are curtain walls made of whole pieces of large crystals, from which you can clearly see the performances on the stage below. Of course, the audience can also see the nobles living a life of devotion and devotion above.

The entire elliptical platform is divided into three-layer structure. The outermost periphery is a place for the people to rest, and the middle circle is used to store various exquisite pastries and wines that have been prepared. The servants are wearing white work clothes and holding golden trays in their hands, standing in a row to entertain guests at any time. The innermost periphery is the place for the cocktail party.

Between the inner and middle circles, dozens of warriors guarding and defending.

More than a dozen long tables are arranged on both sides of the inner circle of the platform, filled with exquisite food. In the middle is a large open space for dancing. There is also a small high platform above the cocktail party, which can be used to make people speak.

Hundreds of magic lamps shine on the sky from every corner, even on days when stars and moons are gone, it is still a piece of day.

The Brownie family held a grand cocktail party on this open-air platform today, inviting all the well-known nobles in Baby Leaf City.

This is the routine of the Brownie family. Every Christmas, they hold a cocktail party here to make friends with famous families from all over the city.

Most of the nobles who came here wore exquisite fake suits, some wore black bow tie on their chests, and a few wore small vests and whips in their hands, which seemed to be just coming back from a hunting trip.

Some noble ladies wore wide evening gowns, and the inner part of the skirt was supported by bamboo rings, so that their skirts were always in a bulging posture. Some ladies also wore velvet hats on their heads, and some wore veils or scarves.

Most noble ladies were inlaid with rosary, rings, chains, gems, diamonds, jade, pearls, agate and other ornaments.

They look like human-shaped monsters covered with gems. For these women, this kind of occasion is an opportunity for them to show off their own financial resources.

Most of the nobles who came to the cocktail party maintained a polite demeanor. When they saw the ladies, they would take off their hats to pay tribute. For some beautiful women, they would take the opportunity to walk forward and show their attention.

Before the cocktail party officially begins, people make friends they think they are qualified to meet through free walks. This is a way for nobles to live in. Through one cocktail party after another, they build a circle of nobles, engage in activities and promote themselves, and prepare for a good future advancement.

So drinking parties and dance parties like this are actually synonyms for the social circle of the upper-class aristocratic people.

The reason why Claude Brownie invited Xiuyi to his cocktail party was to show Xiuyi the strength of the family through this high-level social pressure, and at the same time, he also completed his "brother's instructions" to confirm whether Xiuyi really has a valuable treasure.

After a cocktail party like this, if one or two people disappear, it is not a great event. Even the Law and Political Department would not dare to investigate so many nobles.

"I hope you enjoy my cocktail party." Claude Brownie said to Shioy at this moment.

"A gorgeous feast, I saw that almost all the people with status in the entire Shanye City came." Xiu Yi replied politely.

Claude Brownie said proudly: "Oh, I can only say that the Brownie family is in the city of Baby Leaf. No, the Versa group is still quite famous. Do you know? At least half of the nobles who came here have received favors from the Brownie family. We are always good at solving problems."

"Your words made me ashamed. Just a few days ago, I caused trouble for your family. It is rare that you can ignore past grudges and not only do not hold me accountable, but instead invite me to such a grand banquet. I am flattered."

"Oh, generousness is the virtue that every noble deserves." Claude hugged Shuyi's shoulder and smiled: "Don't care about the past, you must know that you are an alchemist. The Brownie family is willing to cooperate with any powerful alchemist. I mean, if you have any trouble, you can also find us."

"Yes, for example, before I went out today, I thank your people to help get rid of those annoying warriors... They are arresting young people everywhere." Shuyi replied with a helpless expression.

"Oh, yes, I know this. I heard that they were catching a boy named Shuiglare. It's hard to imagine who that boy was? He could actually make the entire empire fight. Lord Lord even issued a whole city martial law today, strictly prohibiting any teenagers under the age of seventeen from entering and leaving." When Claude said this, he looked at Shuigla with a special look.

Xiuyi pretended to be careless and replied: "It depends on how much benefit you can get by catching this prisoner."

"Oh? Are you referring to the rewards of ten thousand Jinweits?" Claude intentionally or unintentionally led the topic to the value of Shuiglair, and Shuigla cooperated with all his strength.

He smiled and said, "Maybe that's just one ten thousandth of the real value."

Claude's heart beat violently in a bad mood. He laughed dryly: "It's hard for me to imagine who can be worth so much money."

Xiu Yi Youyou replied: "That's because you are not an alchemist. You should know that some of the things that an alchemist has cannot be exchanged for even a city. For example..."

Xiu Yi deliberately paused, and then casually said: "For example, the space ring that can be used to store a large number of items; for example, some materials that are rare enough to be impossible to find in this world; for example, thousands of top potions; for example, some top alchemy that has been lost..."

Claude gasped. He stared at Shuyi in a daze, then fell to his left hand, which was holding the wine glass.

On Shuyi's finger, a normal-style ring pointed out a faint magical light.

A huge greed ejaculated from Claude's eyes, and he never dreamed that he could get the big secret about Sullier from Sullier so easily. Then he smiled and raised his cup, using the slightly trembling movement to cover up his inner tension. He said: "It's so interesting, a very good reasoning, Mr. Danito."

"Yes." Xiuyi also raised her glass to the other party.

He looked around and said, "Don't you mind I'm walking around?"

"Of course, the cocktail party has not officially begun, so you can go shopping at will. Look there, there is a beautiful noble lady watching you. Why not go up and chat with that lady? Maybe you can have a beautiful night."

"You're right." Shuyi waved to the waiter who walked over, put the wine glass in his hand into the tray, and then bowed to Claude: "Thank you very much for your generosity. In return, this bottle of potion is a gift I gave to the Brownie family."

He took out a bottle of potion and put it in Claude's hand, and walked towards the crowd.

Looking at Xiuyi's back, Claude opened the bottle of potion in his hand and sniffed it gently.

It's indeed a top-notch product.

He waved his hand and a warrior came over beside him. Claude whispered: "Arrang all the warriors of the family and guard the place. Let everyone watch over that kid. He will never be allowed to go out of this cock tonight."

The warrior hesitated: "Come on now?"

Claude shook his head: "No, after the cocktail party is over, let that kid be proud for a while. Remember, you must be secret when starting, and don't let someone show it. This matter... must not be known to anyone."

Walking along the outer railings, Xiu Yi looked at the surrounding environment leisurely. He looked like he was enjoying the scenery, and occasionally stopped to watch the performance on the stage below.

It was not yet eight o'clock, and the performer at this moment was not the Purple Lolan Song and Dance Team.

Shuai was walking through the crowd, while tasting fine wine and fresh fruits in winter, Xiu Yi was doing his own small movements.

No one noticed that he had walked almost all corners of the open-air platform while he was aimlessly walking.

From time to time, some white powder would sprinkle out of the cracks of his pants, land on the red carpet, seeping in, and gradually becoming invisible. Occasionally, Xiu Yi would throw a small piece of stone into a corner like a playful boy. They looked inconspicuous and only had a faint light in the dark.

The nobles were chatting with each other, the men talked about the current national situation, and heard that the Frank Empire and the Georgian Empire were preparing to counterattack the Lance Empire, and Strick VI had once again mobilized troops to prepare for a large-scale battle.

The women chatted with each other about the weather, clothing, and what kind of playboys have appeared in a certain family recently, and what kind of scandals have happened.

Perhaps it was because he was curious about a stranger suddenly appearing on such an important occasion, or because he was attracted by Xiu Yi's handsome and handsome appearance, many noble ladies and ladies gave him enthusiastic eyes.

"I thought I wouldn't see a boy again at the cocktail party today, but I didn't expect there would be such an outstanding handsome boy." A noble lady looked at Xiu Yi and said with a chuckling, and there were also several young noble ladies or ladies beside her.

What made Xiu Yi’s eyes lit up was one of the ladies.

She stood among a large group of noble ladies and ladies, but after any man's eyes fell on her, he would immediately stop his eyes and stop on her.

She had a pair of eyes that were as bright as gems, and shining like the stars in the dark night.

She was wearing a palace dress made of purple fabric, with a large area of ​​snow-white skin exposed at the low round neckline, and a precious diamond necklace shining on her neck. She was curled and scattered on her shoulders, reflecting her pointed chin and beautiful face.

Compared with those noble ladies in strange clothes, the lady's dress looks much simpler, but it is also more tasty. She leaned against a long dining table, held her right arm with her left hand, and held an agate-colored wine glass in her right hand, holding a bright red fruit wine inside, making a gesture to drink, and her posture looks particularly seductive. The bright red lips that set off her wished that every man would pounce on her and kiss her.

A woman’s beauty sometimes needs to be expressed through multiple aspects such as clothing, behavior, conversation, and movements. A woman who only relies on her face to please men is actually the lowest level. A true beauty knows how to use every inch of her body to attract men, including their every move.

The lady in front of her is undoubtedly this type. She is very good at emitting her talents and uses some subtle tricks to fully display her appearance.

Just a glance, Xiu Yi could confirm that the posture of this wine-holding glass alone would require countless exercises to achieve natural and roundness like the lady in front of him, and was completely in line with his own demeanor.

Compared to her, Des and Ranti are like little girls running out of the countryside. Although they also have beautiful appearances, they obviously don't know how to show themselves more perfectly.

Compared with those noble ladies who regard such occasions as showing off their wealth, the lady in front of them turns this place into a stage for their own charm.

Around her was surrounded by a large number of young nobles. Most of them were the heirs of a certain family, and they were taking the opportunity to surround this girl and showed their respect.

Out of courtesy, after hearing the previous wife's teasing, Xiuyi bent down to the other party as a gentleman, and then said politely: "If you are referring to the inconvenience of young people caused by the Lord's arrest today, then I admit that I did encounter some small trouble before I came to the cocktail party."

"Oh? Then how did you get rid of this trouble?" asked the noble lady who had spoken out before curiously.

"It was the Brownie family who made the proof for me," replied Soui.

"So you are the guest invited by the host." The lady smiled and said, "I thought you were..."

She didn't continue to say that Xiu Yi had already understood the hidden meaning of her words. She must have thought that she was the little lover brought by a noble lady, and today she brought him here to see the world.

The life of the upper class made almost everyone in the aristocratic circle have their own lover, not only men, but even women often sing. Xiu Yi was not surprised that the other party had such a misunderstanding, so he just nodded slightly and planned to retreat.

The lady smiled and said, "I hope Lord Lord will catch the hateful Sulliel as soon as possible, otherwise you will probably have to rely on the Brownie family's certificate to go out."

A noble young man wearing a silver bow tie next to him immediately interjected: "With the power of Lord Lord, I believe this is not difficult."
