Eden
Half an hour ago.
In a Clothing Store that had already closed, all the lighting equipment was kept on to keep it bright, in accordance with the Corner Law.
Luo Di was sitting quietly on a chair in a store, a favorite spot for men while shopping. He had changed into brand new clothes, but he was still holding the mask in his hand, seemingly waiting to put it on before taking action.
The squad leader, in a changing room less than two meters away, was changing into a very special and rather difficult-to-wear outfit.
The reason for choosing this shop is that its Back Gate faces the alleyway where our destination for tonight is located.
While waiting to change, Luo Di asked a question:
"Is the place we're going to tonight a location directly under the [Sororate]?"
A voice came from inside the curtain, "No, you're not qualified to go to any place that has direct connections with the Sorority right now. Even if I wanted to bring you in as Isabella, I couldn't."
However, the place we were going to was indirectly related to the sorority.
Including Isabella,
Some of the core members of the sorority occasionally head to the place we're going to tonight for leisure and indulgence. There's a perfect adjective to describe that place.
"Degeneration"
Only by being sufficiently depraved can one obtain a ticket to the sorority.
Of course, the place you're going to tonight might be helpful for your spine nutrition.
Oh right~ I don't think I've been taking your opinions into consideration at all; I've been making decisions on my own without even asking if you wanted to go.
With a rubber-covered hand, he gently lifted the curtain.
The squad leader was only halfway up his latex suit, with his shoulders, upper chest, and head exposed. His eyes were fixed on Luo Di outside as he posed a question:
"Would you like to come with me?"
I must maintain Isabella's identity; her daily activities cannot be interrupted, and the sorority must believe that she is still alive.
If you're unwilling to compromise your principles and aren't ready, you can refuse. I can go alone.
Luo Di simply looked at the mask in his hand. "Since you already knew the answer from the beginning, there's no need to ask again."
"I know the answer, but your attitude is just as important." The class monitor closed the curtain again and continued changing clothes.
Luo Di continued to ask questions, "What kind of group is a sorority?"
Well, I'll keep you in suspense for now!
Otherwise, if I tell you everything at once, some things will be hard to accept. Moreover, to truly see the real face of sorority, you need to experience it firsthand; it's difficult to describe it through words alone.
Luo Di, all you need to know is that the sorority has support from the shadows.
Only females with sufficiently high qualifications are eligible to be selected as core members.
Luo Di wasn't particularly surprised, or rather, he had already guessed it.
The fact that they could gather so many elite Pseudo-Human, such as the class monitor and Isabella, who were only a step away from the corner, together, and even control them to some extent, must mean that there was depths of the Corner behind it.
"Am I, a man, allowed to go?"
"You are following me as my servant or subordinate, not as an informal member."
Of course, if you, Luo Di, are interested in Gender Transformation, that's fine too. There's a professional in the sorority who can make it painless and quick, and I wouldn't mind having another sister.
Regardless of your status when you go to the sorority's gathering place, the prerequisite is that you gain their approval, which is one of our goals tonight.
"How did you gain recognition in the first place, class monitor?"
"I wasn't recognized, but rather 'disliked'."
The foundation of the sorority is made up of special female Pseudo-Human, who are the very essence of the sorority.
Even considering Isabella's unique circumstances, she would only rank in the lower middle of the entire sorority.
The sorority can basically guarantee that every 'sister' can successfully complete the Crevice screening and go to the corner, and continue to maintain the sorority relationship in the corner.
Because of the Crevice screening, the core members of the sorority are in constant flux, with personnel changes almost every year.
To ensure the stability of the sorority's position, we are constantly looking for promising new blood.
The sorority had a nationwide reach and was always looking for highly talented women, and I happened to be one of them.
My first 'disguise' was exposed by the sorority when I was just fifteen years old.
We'll discuss the specifics later.
"Put on your masks, let's go!"
The squad leader, completely wrapped in a latex suit, came out, put on an extra coat, and pointed to the Back Gate of the Clothing Store.
Let's go back to the present.
The iron gate located in the deep alley was already open.
There is only one straight passageway in front of you, at the end of which is a large freight elevator.
Strangely, although an eyeball had been used to verify identity at the iron gate window, there was no one inside the passage. But Luo Di quickly noticed that there seemed to be some kind of spherical object wriggling between the ceiling light fixtures, and there was more than one.
The freight elevator at the end of the elevator had no buttons at all; once the two people stood inside, the elevator started running automatically.
It descended a full fifty meters before finally coming to a stop.
Luo Di had assumed that the so-called 'secret location' would be a large basement, or an even larger area like a subway station seen in movies.
Bite!
As the elevator doors reached their destination, the squad leader took off her coat, revealing her favorite fully sealed, jet-black latex suit.
A beam of neon light eagerly spread in, seemingly wanting to assimilate every "guest" who came here.
The announcements inside the elevator car also broadcast informal messages in five languages, with the language clearly tinged with desire.
Welcome to the Underground Eden!
A city street filled with neon lights came into view.
With a ceiling height of over 20 meters, combined with state-of-the-art projection technology, the top of the room simulates real-life weather conditions.
A large number of "people" wearing different masks are active here, and the population density is even comparable to some mainstream streets in the city.
Luo Di immediately spotted a dog walker who was relatively close by.
A man with a large belly wearing a golden mask is holding two pet leashes, with a living person wearing a dog head mask at the other end of each leash.
These people dressed as dogs seem to be doing it willingly, and even putting in a lot of effort, not limited to behaviors such as defecating indiscriminately or sniffing trash cans.
The man walking the dog thoroughly enjoys the process, relishing the control and display of his pet.
Some pedestrians wore very daring clothing, or no clothing at all, only masks.
Smoke of various colors billowed from the mouths of the smokers, scattering a psychedelic glow under the neon lights.
in addition,
The shops on both sides of the street mostly sell special goods that are explicitly prohibited, and even actively display various types of live animals.
Take the most recent shop as an example,
Two steel pipes were inserted between the booths, and two women of different skin colors and with excellent figures were dancing to showcase themselves. One of them was also equipped with multiple metal prosthetics.
The adjacent shops have a row of "muscle men" who are obviously created through drugs or other means.
It can be rented for long or short periods and can be used as a security guard or for other purposes.
Even the "dogs" we saw before are available for direct rental to satisfy the special preferences of some customers.
but,
The place the squad leader was taking Luo Di to wasn't here, but deeper inside this underground city.
The jet-black latex suit perfectly accentuated the class monitor's figure, and paired with his confident stride, it looked more high-end than any of the goods sold in the shops here, attracting the attention of many masked figures.
Normally, many people would approach and strike up a conversation.
But when they saw the woman's companions, they immediately stopped thinking; the masks alone were enough to evoke fear and phantom pain in them.
A guy who was about to put his hand inside his pants, ready to have sex with the latex suit, was so frightened by the mask that he completely lost interest.
"How about it, Luo Di? Isn't it a bit beyond your imagination? These masked guys aren't [Pseudo-Human]."
Instead, it's people from all over the city who come here, seemingly finding a sense of being themselves only in such a place.
Luo Di did not respond, but simply followed the squad leader into the depths.
But I was truly shocked.
His Tongue Root tasted the bitter, foul smell of "evil" in the air once more, and his spine seemed to twist as if it were a living person on a steel pipe. Blood vessels had appeared in his eyes hidden beneath the mask.
