Chapter 224 Masquerade
"Red Lantern Hotel" is a very famous place in Guangming City.
Despite its crude name, the location is truly superior. It is close to the "Pearl of Light" in Guangming City. Whenever there are large-scale events, most dignitaries and wealthy businessmen will stay here.
In Utopia, the boss behind the Red Lantern Hotel is definitely a man with great hands and eyes.
Nowadays, this hotel is rented by Yongsheng Group and is specially used for the rest and recuperation of the contestants of the Crazy October rematch. It not only demonstrates the organizer's strong financial resources and emphasis on this competition, but also ensures safety.
——The Pearl of Light, which releases light all day long, is the most important treasure of Guangming City. With it as the center, countless masters secretly protect it. The location of the Red Lantern Hotel is so good that it has also been included in the protection circle.
On this day, October 15th, the "Platinum Hall" on the top floor of the Red Lantern Hotel is a majestic scene with carved beams and painted ceilings. Emerald agate and shining silver tableware complement each other. What's even more rare is that although the decorations are luxurious, the layout is
But it is quite elegant. The platinum hall decorated with precious jewelry and metals does not have much of the nouveau riche temperament, but is very formal and heavy.
Waiters wearing tuxedos and red bows shuttled around carrying dinner plates. They wore uniform black gauze blindfolds and behaved politely and restrainedly. It was obvious that they had been professionally trained, and even maintained the most elegant posture for their arms carrying heavy objects.
At an angle of fifteen degrees, the vitality index of the waiters will be pushed to about 7 by the host, and they will have sufficient physical strength to cope with a long dinner.
Shen Bai did not pay attention to the excellent waiter. He focused on the snacks on the exquisite small plate in his hand and ate them happily.
Because it was a masquerade, Shen Bai also dressed up a little. The service at the Red Lantern Hotel was perfect and there were many dresses to choose from. He took a white suit and wore a fox mask selected from the warehouse.
If you ignore the way he lifts up a corner of his mask and stuffs something into his mouth in order to eat, he looks a bit weird and evil.
As for why there were so many strange masks and clothes in the hotel warehouse, Shen Bai didn't dare to ask. He could only sigh that it was a top-notch hotel that had considered every aspect carefully...
Today, there are a total of 827 contestants staying at the Red Lantern Hotel. Shen Bai glanced at the golden hall and estimated that even if not all of them arrived, there would definitely be more than 800 people.
After all, they are all high school students. They are not very young and they like to be lively. If there is such an activity, they will come out to get some fresh air.
They wore various dresses and weird masks and talked softly. Most of them had no intention of hiding their identities. If you read the report "Utopia Crazy October Rematch Preview" many times, it would be just a matter of time.
Masks cannot hide these leaders among their peers.
However, these young masters from all over Utopia are very knowledgeable, and except for special circumstances, no one will reveal the identity of others.
Although Shen Bai likes to cook, he also knows that it is better not to attract too much attention on such occasions. After eating some snacks, he wandered around with his hands behind his back, and occasionally chatted with people he liked.
During this period, he saw several friends.
Liu Tiancang looks majestic and easy to recognize. Even wearing a Shura mask can't hide his upright and heroic temperament; Fenghua Lian because of his iconic long red hair; as for Jiang Yueling, this poor girl, she is Utopia 800
The only lame person among many contestants will be recognized wherever he goes.
Shen Bai didn't go looking for them, but just wandered around leisurely and heard a lot of gossip. During this process, he marveled at the strange masks of some contestants. He even saw a guy wearing green dinosaur pajamas. Crouching cutely in the corner and drawing circles.
Shen Bai stared at it for a long time, but didn't recognize which contestant this lunatic in dinosaur pajamas was...
I asked you to come to the masquerade, how did you expose your funny nature?
But at this moment, a sudden voice interrupted his complaint.
"Can I get to know this classmate?"
Shen Bai turned his head and stretched out his hand without hesitation:
"Hello, I'm Shen..."
"Oh no, Xiaobai, it's pointless to do this. Masquerade is all about drinking and chatting behind a layer of veil. This is called hazy beauty. Although we can see through each other's identity at a glance, but The ambiguous period before falling in love is the most interesting, isn't it?"
The young man opposite held Shen Bai's hand and said with a smile:
"But if the other party introduces himself to me, I must treat him with courtesy... Let me introduce myself, my surname is Xiao, Xiao Linhai. Thank you, classmate Xiaobai, for coming to my dance."
Xiao Linhai was wearing a crisp black suit and a silver half-face mask, with an easy-going smile. Next to him stood a young woman, who was also a contestant this time. Her evening dress outlined her sexy and hot figure, and she was looking very interested. He looked at Shen Bai carefully.
Information about Xiao Linhai flashed through Shen Bai's mind.
"Male, seventeen years old, a senior student at Juewu Middle School in Guangming City, an A-level [Elemental Limit] Apocalypse, a True Blood Realm warrior, with a comprehensive combat power of King level..."
Di Tian, Feng Hua Lian, and Xiao Linhai are the only three king-level combatants among Utopia contestants. They firmly occupy the top three in Utopia's predicted rankings. They are ruthless people who have a chance to compete for the Eternal Life Cup Championship. Apart from Emperor The power of heaven is still hidden in the mist. Fenghua Lian and Xiao Linhai are both A-level apocalypse, born to stand above their peers.
As for the female companion next to Xiao Linhai, Shen Bai only had a faint impression, which showed that her predicted ranking was not very high, at most top fifty.
Although many thoughts flashed through his mind, Shen Bai did not lose his courtesy. He smiled and said:
"This dance is quite interesting. I rarely attend such events."
"Haha, these are just gadgets for us young boys to kill time when we are bored. They cannot be put on the stage. A strong person should be like you, Xiaobai, who goes into battle to kill the enemy and smash his fists into the heads of mutant beasts and deformed mutants! "
"We are all forced. When our hometown is suffering, we have no choice but to stand up. In fact, if we have a choice..." Shen Bai tapped the fox mask on his face:
"I prefer to rely on my face to make a living."
Xiao Linhai laughed loudly:
"Classmate Xiaobai, I have seen your photos. To be honest, they do seem to be a bit of a mixed bag..."
"Lin Hai." The female companion next to the boy said coquettishly:
"I'm still panting. Can you carry me on your back when you hook up with someone else?"
Xiao Linhai liked to laugh very much. After laughing a few more times, he said curiously:
"Xiao Bai, although we have just met, you still allow me to gossip a little. Who is your dance partner in a moment? Miss Fenghua Lian? Or that Jiang Yueling?"
Shen Bai was stunned for a moment, shook his head and said:
"I haven't thought about it yet. I'll tell you later. I just learned a few ballroom dances in high school. I'm not very proficient. I don't know whether I can dance or not."
This is true. Although in Shen Bai's eyes, ballroom dancing is a normal social interaction and definitely not a hook-up, but you must at least have a certain level of ability to dance on stage. Otherwise, you will make a fool of yourself on stage and even step on your partner's shoes halfway.
