Chapter 433： full moon dance

Su Lun had heard of the "Gusmao Airship", which was the information obtained from the memory of the Mafa Royal Mechanical Knight who was stripped of Princess Sika's side in the North Sea.

The Marfa military has some top-secret information, saying that Lu Ying's military industry department is developing a super strong air fortress, and wants to control the air and use it to deal with the future battlefield.

This is not an ordinary airship with a big balloon hanging a hanging basket, but a real steel behemoth, which can even be understood as a steam steel castle in the sky.

However, it has not yet been heard of being used in the battlefield.

Even Marfa's intelligence department only heard that Lu Ying's military is secretly developing it, but no one has actually seen it.

Su Lun didn't expect to see the real thing here.

No matter how the "Shadow Lord" got the airship, just by this means, the title of King of the Underground Gang of Lingdun is really not blown out.

Seeing the military airship, Su Lun's thoughts flew: "A gang boss can't do this. Who is the financial master behind this 'Red Oak Club'?"

After all, the Luying Empire has thousands of years of history, and there are many kinds of giant crocodiles hidden under the water.

For example, the low-key Reims family, the ambitious Archduke Raphael...

This also made Su Lun feel more and more careful about this dance.

......

Except for the slight movement like an earthquake just now, there was nothing unusual.

But in spatial perception, Su Lun knew that this behemoth was slowly lifting into the air.

He didn't show any abnormality, and continued chatting with Sabina.

Half an hour later, Su Lun sensed that they were now at least three thousand meters above the ground, and the airship continued to float.

Suddenly, there was a sound of the organ opening from behind a wall of the airtight room they were in.

Su Lun and Sabina looked back at the same time, and the previous decorative wall was folded up, revealing a large piece of tempered glass.

Looking at the floating clouds outside, a hint of surprise appeared in Sabina's crystal eyes, apparently she didn't expect it to be in the sky.

Su Lun stood up, and Sabina took his arm naturally, and the two walked to the viewing window.

At this sight, the entire Lingdun has a panoramic view.

At night, the city streets were brightly lit, and the height of the airship was already above the dense fog, and everything could be seen clearly.

The gray fog that shrouded Lingdun all year round cast a mysterious veil on the row upon row of buildings.

The lights on the banks of the Rocco Valen are the brightest. The gas lights along the river walkway light up two long rows of orange dots, dividing the entire city into two halves, the north and the south.

The fog in Nancheng is the thickest, and the towering chimneys in the factory are spewing white smoke non-stop. Although the lights in the noble district of Beicheng are not dense, they are very bright.

The whole city is like a giant beast slumbering on the ground, and the buildings are like the spikes on its back.

At the moment, there is a bright moon hanging in the sky, and the white moonlight pours on the foggy earth, adding a layer of mystery to the world in the eyes.

It was also the first time that Sullen overlooked the super-large city of Lington.

He squinted at the bright lights at the moment, and his heart was inexplicably relieved, and he sighed: "Standing high, the scenery is really different."

While looking at the scenery, his eyes looked out from the viewing glass again, looking at this aerial fortress.

The hull is a steel shell spliced ​​by huge rivets, and many propellers of various uses and sizes can be seen on the side. Part of the power equipment that can be seen from this angle has steam pipes emitting white smoke. There is no obvious airbag device, and the shape is very strange, but it looks like a chubby giant whale.

A strong steampunk style.

Su Lun looked at it carefully and roughly understood the general structure of the "Gusmao Airship", but he couldn't figure out how such a heavy steel castle could fly into the sky. The key to the energy system was hidden in the airship. internal.

After just one glance, he also had some guesses: "It seems to be ancient goblin technology?"

Don't think about it, once it is a mechanical product that exceeds the current level of technology, 80% of it is ancient black technology discovered by archaeology.

Although Su Lun couldn't understand it, it didn't prevent him from hearing that in the once glorious goblin civilization, there was a legend of the "City in the Sky" that could fly in the sky.

The adventurers of the Luying Empire have been searching for treasures to open up wasteland for so many years, and it is not difficult to understand that there are some black technologies in the hands of the royal family.

......

Su Lun and Sabina were admiring the view in the sky by the window. After a short wait, there was another "click" sound of gears being engaged in the room.

A folded staircase from the ceiling descended slowly.

Sabina had been there once and obviously knew what that meant. She put her arms around Su Lun and said, "Sir, it's time for the dance."

Su Lun nodded, and the two walked up the stairs.

The internal space of the mechanical airship is also quite large, and the two of them did not meet other participants in the passage.

After a while, the bunny girl pushed open a door, and her vision suddenly became clear.

This is a luxurious banquet hall with dim lighting.

When the two of them came, there were already dozens of people wearing masks. There are men and women, they are gorgeously dressed, and just by looking at the jewelry they wear, you can tell that these people are unusual.

There was a faint scent of incense in the air, and Su Lun smelled refreshed.

He took a closer look at the incense burner in the corner, and identified it as a potion with a strange name like [Could it be a girl's legend].

Although the name is strange, Su Lun has been famous for a long time!

Because this is a legendary alchemy potion.

The potion has the miraculous effect of beautifying the face and prolonging life. It is said that the first time a person who is near the end of his lifespan uses it, he will live another half a year in an instant.

Long-term use, can last for many years!

And the main material of this medicine is the fossils of billions of years that have only been found in the permafrost of the polar ice sheet. It is said that the special medicines refined by the royal family of Lu Ying are not sold through any channels on the market.

"Good stuff..."

Seeing this, Su Lun suddenly felt a bit like a country bumpkin.

There was a wave of wealth in Haixu before. If you have money, you are rich, but your temperament has not kept up.

There are many things in this ball, if it wasn't for the name identified by the All-Seeing Eye, he would never have seen it.

The key thing that Su Lun can't understand is that this kind of good thing is actually taken out for free?

He looked at the dining table full of drinks and food, and it was no surprise that they were all rare delicacies and good old wines on the market. It's not eating to nourish the body, or it's a variety of stacking buffs. Anyway, it's not an ordinary food that only satisfies the desire of the tongue.

Seeing this, Su Lun also understood that the things that the organizer of this dance provided for the guests to enjoy must be rare things that cannot be bought with money in the market, or are extremely difficult to buy.

Everywhere highlights the strength of the organizers.

......

Su Lun didn't wait long, and some other guests came out from the hidden corner one after another.

It's easy to tell the difference. All the attendees wore special masks to cover their faces.

And those young men and women without masks are exclusive waiters.

High-society socialite, member of the Royal Ballet, singer...

Su Lun had several familiar faces among those bunny girls.

In the eyes of ordinary people, these big beauties dressed in **** and coquettish clothes are unattainable high-class people, but in the eyes of real big men, they are only to set off the atmosphere of the ball.

Sabina, who was on the side, looked at Suren for a few times, her eyes clearly meant: If you are interested, sir, you can try it~

Su Lun let out a laugh.

He didn't see those people coveting beauty, but wanted to see who was attending the meeting, so that he could infer more useful information.

He calmly looked at everything around him, but unfortunately, the masks provided by the participants to the guests were obviously prohibited from interfering with perception, so they couldn't see their faces clearly.

Su Lun remembered their soul fluctuations.

......

The Full Moon Ball is a member recommendation system, so most of the participants are old members who have been there before and know the rules.

The desire for dance parties in the upper class is hidden, and this "full moon dance party" is originally an underground dance party, and the desires of the participants are released.

Those who wear masks will not be surprised that anything happens in front of them, they are doing their own things in the corner of the banquet hall. The old men can flirt with bunny girls, and the ladies can also find male models to have fun. There are lively scenes everywhere.

After all, it was a dance party in name, and the soothing music sounded, and the members found their dance partners to embrace and dance.

Su Lun and Sabina also embraced and danced a slow dance.

Sabina looked at Su Lun, who seemed to have some doubts about the fat-headed and big-eared nobles who were looking for fun regardless of their image, and bit her ear and explained softly: "Actually, many people here don't mind revealing their identities. Because everything about the dance party They are absolutely kept secret, and are even forbidden to be discussed in private. Otherwise, they will be wiped out by the Lord Shadow Lord. His intelligence network is very powerful, covering both black and white. Those who can survive. Besides, being able to join a dance party is also an identity threshold for people in the upper class. Many people reveal their identity, but it can elevate their status in real society..."

Su Lun also understood a little.

In fact, there are countless peach scandals in the upper class, and everyone is tacit.

Now that there is a "no leakage" rule here, those people naturally have no fear.

The dance is a membership system, and many people know each other or are involved.

This is also a special alliance.

This alliance will be more stable only if everyone has black information on each other.

From another point of view, in the hands of the organizer's "Shadow Lord", I am afraid there will be a lot of black material in the upper class.

......

Not long after, a mysterious man with a black robe and a golden face mask walked into the banquet hall.

Su Lun noticed this person immediately, sensed the special soul fluctuation, and murmured, "It's very strong."

This is the mysterious "Shadow Lord".

It is difficult for top professionals to tell the level of soul fluctuations, but Su Lun feels at least the seventh level, and even a bit like Mr. Mirror's illusory eighth-level fluctuation.

"But his soul fluctuations are very weak... Is this the end of his lifespan?"

Although this popularity is extraordinary, Su Lun felt some information that others could not.

Just like when he met Grandma Katyusha on the boat to Shanyin Country, the fire of the soul of the man with the golden mask in front of him was like wax in the wind.

In other words, this guy's life span is approaching and he is going to die.

Only then did Su Lun understand that the potion of "Could it be a girl's legend" arranged at the venue was also for his own use.

Thinking that this guy was the king of the Lington gang more than 20 years ago, he can understand it when he is older.

Seeing him coming, everyone stopped and bowed in salute.

The man in the golden mask waved his hand and said, "Everyone is an old friend, so don't be so polite. Before the official opening of the ball, our 'Marquise Agnes' has an opening dance for everyone. I think everyone would like it more. Watch the beautiful lady dance, not listen to the long-winded idiot of me..."

As soon as he said this, a beam of spotlights fell on a lady in a black evening dress at the venue.

Although he couldn't see his face clearly with the mask on, just by looking at his attire and skin color, he knew that this was a well-maintained high-ranking aristocrat.

Everyone's eyes looked over.

The lady didn't sound long-winded, she took off her mask directly, showing her true face and a slightly helpless smile: "Oh, I'm still dancing naked at my age, it's embarrassing."

This is a beautiful woman who still has a charm. Although she mocked herself for being old, her skin was as smooth as a girl in her twenties, and her body was bumpy, showing the charm of a mature young woman.

She simply took off her black evening dress, then all cover, and said, "I hope you give in. Since the last ball asked, a gentleman helped me with that, and he wanted to see me. Dancing in front of everyone will only make everyone laugh..."

None of the group of participants showed any strange expressions, and they applauded in harmony with the atmosphere.

Facts have proved that no matter before or now, during GHS, the people who eat melons will be surprisingly uniform gentlemen: good people have a safe life.

Su Lun was also very surprised to see that a marquise was already a real figure in high society. She actually walked onto the stage under the spotlight so often without filming, and danced such a fragrant dance in front of everyone?

The noble lady is proficient in all kinds of dances. This Marquise Agnes has no stage fright at all, and the dance is **** and pleasing to the eye.

Not to mention, this opening dance is really good.

Su Lun was used to seeing all kinds of girls performing at night shows. It can be said that watching the flame dance or something, his heart will not fluctuate at all.

But the dancing of the noble lady in front of her gave people a different kind of fun.

At the same time, Su Lun was also amazed. Are the rules of this dance so hardcore?

It's like Truth or Dare, if you say adventure, it's an adventure.

Does the dignified marquise have to go to battle in person?

Sabina, who was beside her, also watched with relish, and whispered in Su Lun's ear, "So Mr. likes this?"

Su Lun didn't deny that he was very interested, "It's not bad."

Sabina laughed softly.

Su Lun can understand after thinking about it.

Lu Ying's aristocratic circle was originally chaotic in his private life. For the ladies and wives who have lived in aristocratic families since childhood, there is often no obsession with Zhenlie. They know very well that their greatest value lies in marriage. Beauty or something is just a tool. If you want to get it, you only need to see if the price is enough, not whether you like it or not.

This marquise will dance here, which means that Ming, she must have paid more in exchange for benefits than she is currently paying.

......

A fragrant opening dance kicked off the ball.

After all, these people are not here to enjoy, but to exchange resources and information.

After the man with the golden mask made an opening appearance, he didn't speak again, but sat in the corner where the light just happened to be able to illuminate shadows.

A butler-like person presided over the dance,

Then came the communication session.

Those who wore masks opened their mouths one after another and put forward their own needs.

"The reporters of the Lington Entertainment News have some scandals that are not good for me. It is the property of the Fez MP who happens to be my political enemy. Someone is blackmailing me. I need someone to handle it. The reward is a card. Rong silver coin..."

"I can handle this. I can guarantee that this news will not appear in the newspapers."

"..."

"There will be a proposal for the reform of the ore trade in Congress the day after tomorrow. I need some accurate internal information. The reward is two silver coins."

"I know this information. But I need three silver coins."

"..."

"In the case of Earl Mallory's assassination, I need information on the murderer."

"I have a batch of sensitive bulk arms to leave the port, and I need a special pass signed by the Minister of Commerce and Trade Oliver himself."

"There is a war going on in the Principality of Mustang, and I need a middleman to mediate. The reward is a gold coin."

"..."

Questions were asked one by one, and then someone took it.

Everyone is obviously familiar with this process.

If no one can solve it, the matter will fall to the "Shadow Lord".

Although he didn't get an answer on the spot, everyone knew that as long as he wasn't rejected, it would definitely be resolved.

In addition to those who spoke out, there were also some members who were unwilling to reveal their identities, so they used a special projector to project the demand meter on the public screen.

Originally, this kind of resource exchange could be achieved in ordinary noble cocktail parties, but members are more willing to trade here.

Elsewhere, even people you know in reality need to worry about whether the transaction partner will have a different opinion.

But the transaction here is absolutely safe.

Because all transactions are guaranteed by the "Shadow Lord".

If someone agrees, it must be executed according to the contract.

This is the rule of the dance.

It's like the fragrant dance performed by the marquise at the beginning.

......

It is indeed a high-end exchange meeting, and the discussions are really big business.

Su Lun silently listened to what others said, carefully observing everything.

He didn't speak in a hurry.

From the questions asked, you can roughly guess the camp and identity of those people, and there are also some that you can't guess when they hide their faces.

He also found that the identities of the people at the dance party are very mixed, and there are bigwigs from all walks of life.

And the things that can be solved at this dance are also some very difficult problems.

After listening to the news, Su Lun deeply felt that there were too many predators hidden in Lingdun, Emperor Lu Ying. Those problems that are difficult to solve by listening are often just a sentence in the mouth of these people.

Just to join in the fun, you can find out a lot of top-secret information, and can infer a lot of changes in Lu Ying's upper management.

But Su Lun knew that it was impossible to prostitute information.

The members are very active because there is an unspoken rule in this dance, that is, if you participate in the party many times without showing "value", you will be kicked out of the membership.

As far as Sabina's information is concerned, this "Shadow Lord" has always represented absolute neutrality, not taking any stand.

It is almost certain that he does not stand on the side of the royal family, nor is he a force supported by a certain member of the Sixth Congress...

If there is a conflict between members, you can ask him to mediate, but he will not favor anyone.

This is also the most important reason why Su Lun wants to come to this place to find clues.

If "neutrality" is a created character, this dance party has existed for more than 20 years, and after many political changes, it should have collapsed long ago.

But the intelligence officers of Mr. Jing's blood descendants who have been lurking in Lingdun for hundreds of years have never heard of it.

On the contrary, "Yingjue" has become more and more mysterious in recent years.

The only certainty is that he is very strong.

I have always heard that someone in black and white wanted to assassinate him, but now he is alive and well.

And the people and forces who wanted to kill him disappeared.

......

The atmosphere of the communication session was very delicate.

There are many who reveal their identities, and there are also many who hide their heads and show their tails.

After observing for a while, Su Lun did not find any crisis, so he wrote his needs in a special sensor and projected it on the screen: "A special formula of psychedelic potion has recently appeared in the gangsters in Nancheng. I think If you know the source of the medicine and some detailed information, it would be better if you can get the formula. The reward is a Charon silver coin."

[Charon Silver Coin] is the hard currency in circulation for the ball, and it is the certificate issued by the "Shadow Lord".

The essence of the exchange of this dance is barter, but sometimes there is no equivalent bargaining chip between the two sides of the transaction, so there is this silver coin.

Of course, Su Lun couldn't foolishly ask directly about the identity of the "curator".

I just played against each other, and if the family is also at the dance, it's easy to be exposed.

What's more, because finding the "curator" is not the ultimate goal.

Find the source of the medicine.

And it is no longer a secret that the potion appeared in Nancheng. Many well-informed forces have received the news and will ask again. It's not easy to ask this question.

Su Lun's purpose was to know who made the batch of medicines and how the Red Death came about.

He originally wanted to try his luck.

I don't think I can get accurate information.

Unexpectedly, not long after the news was asked, an anonymous line of text appeared on the sensor of the notebook: "This batch is secretly developed by 'Bakeqi Biopharmaceutical Company', and the laboratory is at the headquarters. , they are heavily guarded. I just know that they will hold a new drug launch conference soon, and they will officially release this medicine. I don’t need to think about the formula. The interests involved are too great. Huge profits, I will never sell the formula to the outside world. There is only so much news. As for the reward, you can give it. Oh, I have another news for you. Now there are many people who are paying attention to this potion. If you want to buy shares, you must find a way as soon as possible. "

"..."

When Su Lun saw it, she really came to the right place!

This directly asked the origin of the medicine.

This "Bake Qiwu Pharmaceutical Company" is one of the major pharmaceutical giants in Lu Ying, and it is also the industry of the Rodriguez family.

The senator from the Rodriguez family is the most staunch supporter of the Freedom of Belief Act.

Now that you know who your opponent is, you will have a direction for your next response.

......

Su Lun didn't expect to get the information so easily.

Now that the biggest purpose of coming to this dance has been achieved, he is also relieved.

Then you can quietly be a bystander.

There is not only demand here, but also idle resources, most of which are special items that cannot be released through formal channels.

Soon, Su Lun saw another piece of information that he was very interested in.

Someone posted a message: "I still have a batch of special equipment imported from Marfa to prepare imitation mechanical armors during the previous Coup d'etat, 90% new, and now sealed in the Royal Dockyard. Warehouse. Duke Raphael is working in secret and wants to buy it. After half a month, the Royal Shipyard will probably sell it to him. But some people don't want this thing to fall into his hands. Interested friends can quote a price. Trade Two silver coins are attached, and the price of the machine is calculated separately. I will find a way to get it out, and the transaction channel is guaranteed to be safe.”

"Imported equipment that imitates mechanical armor?"

Su Lun looked at her and was overjoyed.

Although Marfa prohibits the export of mechanical armor, it does not prohibit the export of various mechanical equipment. It's just a war between the two countries, and it is very difficult to find a purchase channel. Especially the military equipment related to mechanical armor.

And Leina's rich woman's chamber of commerce also helped to collect a batch of second-hand machinery and equipment before, but Su Lun had seen those lists, and most of them were outdated production equipment produced by Lu Ying.

Although it is barely usable, it cannot meet the production needs of the War Workshop in the Small Void Realm.

But this batch of goods imported from Marfa is different.

Very apt!

Before the foggy coup, the new faction seized power and wanted to restructure the Luying Empire, and also made a lot of plans to learn the advanced system of Marfa.

Among them is the plan of "Mechanical Armor Factory".

These imported equipments were obtained from Marfa at a high cost and through special channels. The prime minister at that time wanted to start with imitation and explore step by step, so that Lu Ying could also follow the path of a mechanical power.

But then the queen quickly returned to power, and the old school directly hammered to death the New Deal that had been in power for a few months All proposals for the New Deal were frenziedly suppressed.

So much so that the expensive imported equipment was sealed before it could be produced.

Without policy support, these special devices are really of little use in the hands of others.

Because the manufacture of mechanical armor requires senior mechanics, precise drawings, and a systematic training system for mechanical talents...

Indispensable.

Even Lu Ying and several major arms dealers holding these instruments and equipment are useless.

Many of these devices are special-purpose instruments, and they lack some core instruments for manufacturing high-precision parts of mechanical armor.

So even if you hold it in your hand, you can't make a slightly better mechanical armor at all.

Using them to make mechanical weapons decades behind Lu Ying is not as easy to use as old equipment.

But others are useless, but Su Lun has it!

Whether it's mechanical armor blueprints, mechanic talents, or precision core instruments (the ones on the submarine), he has them all!

When Su Lun saw this information, he was immediately moved.

Sure enough, high-end resources are in the hands of a handful of people.

This dance is so worth it!

PS. The comments in the past few days have not been deleted, because they cannot be seen due to policy reasons. Should be fine in a few days.
