Quick Transmigration Cannon Fodder's Record of Counterattacks
Chapter 2743: I Feel Like CinderellaSeeing Ning Shu’s stern expression, Mina could only begin tying her tools to her legs.
However, she ended up only tying the holy water to her leg, because it felt weird to have something strapped to her leg.
Ning Shu didn’t say anything. It wasn’t like she was counting on Mina anyway.
The two left the motel. A luxury car was parked at the entrance of the motel.
It had been sent by the masquerade organizer to pick them up.
Ordinary people didn’t know about the blood hunter order, but the rich and powerful did. They knew that there were vampires and also knew of the blood hunter order.
Mina got into the car. She lifted the hem of her skirt, revealing a pair of transparent glass slippers. They looked like Cinderella’s crystal slippers.
It was evidence of Mina’s innocence. She was a girlish child who loved to dream of fairy tales.
She lived within such a bloody organization but still loved to daydream.
Ning Shu got into the car and sat beside Mina. Staring at Mina’s shoes, she said, “Doesn’t wearing those hurt?”
Running in those shoes would probably hurt like hell.
This was clearly an extremely dangerous event, yet Mina could get away with treating it like a date. There was seriously no way to explain it except that she was loved by the Heavens.
If it had been an ordinary person, they would’ve died a hundred times by now.
“It doesn’t hurt that much, fortunately,” Mina said. “I’m a little nervous, though.”
“What are you nervous about?”
“I feel like Cinderella going to the prince’s banquet in a pumpkin carriage,” Mina said with a smile. She put a hand over her heart. “I feel so nervous.”
Ning Shu nodded. “I guess with how hard life already is it’s good to fantasize every now and then.”
Mina’s fantasy would come true. She would meet a prince alright.
Ning Shu closed her eyes and started to cultivate.
The car ride was very smooth. The maps showed that it would take some time to get to their destination.
The masquerade ball was being held in a manor. All the guests were powerful and wealthy people.
There would definitely be some vampires mixed in here, and they would even be rich and powerful vampires.
Blood hunters would usually be present on occasions like this. Their role was to restrain and scare any vampire into line.
Those who could participate in this masquerade were all people of high standing. The death of any of them would cause global turmoil.
To ordinary people, vampires were but creatures of legends. The authorities naturally also kept their existence a secret.
The car came to a slow stop. A parking staff member, wearing a tuxedo and white gloves, opened the door for them.
Ning Shu got out of the car first and stretched out her hand to help Mina. The staff led them to the entrance of the manor.
Another staff member was checking invitation cards at the door. Ning Shu took out theirs. The invitation card had a faint fragrance, delicate dark lines, and fancy English fonts.
A single one of these invitation cards alone would’ve cost a lot of money. The workmanship put into it was exquisite, befitting the status of the guests carrying it.
The staff bowed and let Ning Shu and Mina in.
Mina was a little tense. She straightened her body and followed Ning Shu in.
It was already dark outside. Ning Shu walked into the grand hall, where the lighting was dim and subdued. People wearing masks weaved their way through the hall, their movements shrouded in an air of mystery.
Seeing that everyone was wearing masks, Mina became less nervous and picked up a wine glass.
“Don’t drink too much. Alcohol can lead to mistakes,” Ning Shu said.
Mina put down her glass. “I just wanted to smell it. Why are you so serious all the time? Doesn’t it get tiring?”
Ning Shu: …
How could she not be serious? There was a powerful vampire among these guests, one that took out the entire blood hunter order!
In the original storyline, the original host was beaten so badly that she vomited blood in this masquerade. No matter what Ning Shu couldn’t let herself be beaten by Perry this time.
Ning Shu wanted to say something else, but Mina had already slipped into the dance floor. The dim light and the masks made Ning Shu lose track of Mina almost immediately.
She sure was mischievous…
Ning Shu really understood the original host’s plight. The original host had to follow Mina everywhere, fearing that she would get into trouble or cause one.
Ning Shu stood in the corner and observed the people on the dance floor. Some of them were dancing, while others were drinking together in groups of twos or threes.
