Although he has been mentally prepared for a long time, and the simple-minded ogre clan has almost no concept of moral integrity and dignity, Gronn is still somewhat resistant to putting on women's clothing again. Let’s not talk about whether he lost something important. Judging from the current situation, the inconvenience caused by women’s clothing cannot be ignored.
You know, even though Bahrain just casually assigned the task to his servants, these maids who tended to follow others but were very observant, after seeing Goron's true appearance that far exceeded the specifications, instantly knew that this child meant a lot to them. How important it is to the owner, Baron Baring. Not only did they immediately put away their previous bad attitude, but the clothes they found for Goron this time were actually of the highest standard. They were directly made for Lord Bahrain's daughter, their eldest lady, who had just ordered them and had not had time to try them on. I brought over the whalebone skirt that I had worn.
This kind of upper-class aristocratic costume first uses a tights made of steel bars to tightly tighten the wearer's waist, hoops the body into a thrilling "S" shape, and then puts on a lantern held up by a very exaggerated skirt. Long skirt. This whalebone skirt with an extremely luxurious and gorgeous appearance has been the favorite of the upper-class noble women since its birth. It is the best foil to set off identity, status and temperament, and is the ultimate weapon that can cover up physical defects to the greatest extent. (ps: It’s the kind of dress Cinderella wears.)
But Gron swore to God that in his eyes, this kind of whalebone skirt was equivalent to the most terrifying form of torture and imprisonment. After the six strong servants gritted their teeth and exerted a tug-of-war, the tights actually gave way. Gronn's waist shrank by more than two circles, and the poor little ogre's ribs creaked. Even breathing became very difficult, and his appetite almost disappeared. Putting on the bloated and complicated lantern skirt, Goron could hardly even walk. Let alone fight.
Gronn even had reason to wonder whether the cunning Lord Bahrain had already seen through his secret, so he ordered these barbaric servants to use this terrible "torture instrument" to restrict their ability to move.
With this uneasiness and doubt, Goron obeyed and waited quietly in the lounge arranged for him. Those annoying maids and maids finally left after tormenting him. Gron finally had the opportunity to think carefully about the current situation, and he also needed to check his body.
His current situation is so bad that even Goron can't think of anything worse than this. According to his original idea, it should be to develop the dark organization "Black City" behind him to a certain extent, after having all aspects of intelligence, financial, human and material support. Only then would he cautiously step into this fallen city and try to rescue his mother.
But now, the only thing he can rely on seems to be himself. Without intelligence, he now knows nothing at all. He doesn't know where the person he is looking for is, and he doesn't know what enemies he will face. He didn't know how to get home, not even after putting on this damn whalebone dress. How can he fill his belly.
In addition, the only "financial and material resources" that Gronn currently possesses are a small amount of gold coins, finance and weapons and equipment hidden in his skin in the form of tattoos.
In terms of weapons, there are currently very few single-use gunpowder weapons left, and the magic missile heads that need to be refilled have not been able to find the opportunity to refill with shaman magic. The pair of strange weapons full of secrets, the Holy Maiden's Leg Club, are all there. As for King Solomon's God-Destroying Gear Abyss Contract, the true value of that strategic-level weapon cannot yet be evaluated.
As for "financial resources", although Goron obtained some sacrifices to the shaman ancestors and other gods in the abyss labyrinth. These are precious items whose value is difficult to measure with money, but without an altar, he has no way to convert these sacrifices into his own strength. There is also no way to sell his useless sacrifices for money for the time being.
The only good thing is that the seven divine powers of other worlds in Goron's body have grown very significantly. The key is that it has become much more stable, and I finally feel comfortable. This may become his most powerful trump card.
The hands of the clock in the corner of the living room finally pointed to a certain moment. The heart-stopping bell rang in the empty room, and Goron's body couldn't help but tremble. Looking out the window, the starlight, moonlight and the city light of Montenegro are intertwined, spreading to the whole world, incomparably indifferent.
The door was suddenly pushed open from the outside, and two rows of waiters walked in with their heads lowered. The leader, who looked like a butler, bowed respectfully to Goron and said in a restrained tone: "Miss Gloria, banquet It's ready, please come with me."

Although it seemed to be held in a hurry, tonight's banquet was still quite large. The back garden and an entire attic of the Bahrain mansion have been used. This building was originally designed to hold various large and medium-sized banquets. With the garden outside the building, it can be used for both open-air cocktail parties and indoor dinner parties. There is even a small swimming pool built in the garden that has both ornamental and practical value.
At this time, the outdoor banquet venue was brightly lit, and several long tables placed in the garden were filled with all kinds of delicacies that had never been seen before. Elf maids specially used by noble families to support the scene shuttled back and forth, serving glasses of red wine. to the visiting guests. There is also a band playing in the corner of the garden. The musicians who are extremely dedicated use their lyres, horns and other instruments to play high-quality movements. A halfling bard with a very cute appearance is loudly singing praises to the Holy Spirit. The deeds of the founding heroes of the Beast Alliance. A group of wealthy ladies were pointing around this lovely halfling. It was unclear whether their interest was in the poem they were already familiar with or in this young and beautiful halfling.
As for the indoors, it is the world of men. Several chess and card rooms of different sizes are already filled with smoke. The aristocratic men wearing wigs and smoking tobacco are playing cards while bragging about what they have done recently. Amazing feats, but most of them were gambling wins and losses in the Colosseum or buying very rare slaves. Of course, some people were bragging about their martial arts. Goron, who happened to be passing by, not only heard the words "Low Tide Port" and "Old Street", but also accidentally heard someone talking about the recent huge damage suffered by the Holy Light's Holy See in exploring the abyss labyrinth. Although Goron wanted to listen more, But the speaker was stunned after seeing him accidentally, and didn't even know that the World Wood pipe in his mouth fell to the ground.
It was only then that Goron's appearance was finally known. At first, everyone only knew that Baron Bahrain suddenly planned to hold a banquet and invited himself, but they did not know the theme of the banquet. After all, in the aristocratic circle, it can be said that banquets It's a theme every night, and it doesn't matter who is hosting it and why. But until they saw Bahrain's old housekeeper leading a "girl" suddenly appear at the banquet venue, they immediately knew that tonight's banquet was unusual.
Montenegro is a majestic city with a long history in the mainland. Its prosperity, luxury and corruption are difficult to describe in words. These wealthy nobles have long been accustomed to seeing all kinds of peerless beauties, the elf queen captured in the dark forest, and the darkness after the fall of the underground city. The elf high priest, the female black panther orc general, the diamond beauties created by the puppet magicians of the Seven Towers Alliance... Such unheard-of beautiful women are not uncommon in Montenegro, and one or two will appear almost every few months. At the auction venue or at a midnight cocktail party of a certain big noble, just like this "girl" in front of me... There is no doubt that although Goron's appearance can be regarded as the best among the best, it is not yet capable of causing a stir. The ability to make a huge sensation, after all, not long ago, someone witnessed the legendary supreme beauty and appreciated the supreme elegance of the "giant monster".
What really shocked this group of nobles was Gronn's appearance. He was so similar to Count Amanda, that influential figure in the Imperial Capital, Emperor Durotar's number one favorite and secret lover.
If we want to select the most eye-catching figure in Montenegro, then there is no doubt that it can only be Count Amanda. Even Emperor Durotar, who claims to be the hegemon of the generation, will not have any objections. Although Earl Amanda is a man, he is also the most embarrassing outlier among the nobility, the next heir of the "executioner" Xiuwen family. But with his unparalleled beauty, Earl Amanda overcame others to become the undisputed most beautiful woman in Montenegro, and he was also the most powerful person in the imperial capital... Although he was only an earl, even if he was a child of the imperial capital Everyone knows how the ferocious and tyrannical Emperor Durotar responded to this semi-public "secret lover"'s request and showed great favor... At least it was like this until the "giant monster" Rafana appeared.
Just when Goron was surrounded by crowds of spectators, a hand grabbed him almost brutally, pulled him out of the crowd, and walked quickly deep into the house. Although this man's strength was nothing to an ogre, Gronn was eager to get out of this predicament, so he rushed out of the crowd without any resistance.
The two quickly shook off the crowd and rushed into a room. They only heard a bang and the door was locked tightly.
"Bahrain! What do you mean, you bastard? Since you have already informed me, why are you still holding this cocktail party? What's more, let Gloria be exposed in front of those bastards! Make his existence known to everyone! "
This roar was vaguely familiar to Goron. He turned around and saw that it was indeed the perverted Baron Kula Khan who liked men's style. At this time, this guy looked quite decadent, with sunken eye sockets and a beard on his face. It hasn't been carefully taken care of in a while. Although the clothes on the Baron's body can be said to be exquisite and decent, they seem to have been put on a little too hastily. They were not neatly arranged in several places, and even the corners of his clothes were exposed outside his trousers. Any one of these defects would be enough to make him He became the laughing stock of the upper class nobles, but he obviously didn't care at all. At this time, he looked at the man sitting quietly on the sofa in the room, his friend Baron Barin, with a murderous look. (To be continued...)
