Chapter 530: Trapped!
Liana quickly agreed: "That's right, we don't just want these Cinderella peripherals, everything is for work."
As they spoke, the two of them seemed to have found a sufficient reason for themselves, walked into the store with confidence, and began to sweep things up frantically.
They picked out all kinds of peripheral items, from dolls to badges, from posters to bracelets, almost everything related to "Cinderella" was collected by them.
The raffle was not missed either, as they were looking forward to winning the grand prize, which might be an important part of unlocking Stacy's secret.
At the same time, in the Andalia Palace in the Forest of Elves, Alysia was looking out the window with melancholy.
The incident at the Moon Goddess Temple's Sacred Fire Altar dealt her a heavy blow.
She had always thought that she had a sure win in the competition for the position of Saint, but Stacy's sudden outburst of divine fire caused her confidence to collapse in an instant.
But Alicia quickly cheered up. She slapped her face hard, and the fighting spirit rekindled in her eyes.
Now, she had to figure out what Stacy had done and why she had gained so much power of faith.
She believed in the abilities of her trusted aides, Alice and Lianna.
In her opinion, with their intelligence and determination, they would be able to find out the truth within seven days.
Alicia stood up and prepared to leave the room to take care of some matters.
Just then, the voices of Alice and Lianna were heard from outside the door.
She was stunned for a moment, and doubts arose in her heart. What was going on between Alice and Lianna? Don't you know it's urgent? Haven’t set off yet?
As for the fact that they had completed the investigation and returned, she had never even thought about it.
After all, it has only been a short time. No matter how powerful they are, it is impossible for them to be so incredible and complete the task in such a short time.
Alicia walked quickly to the door with a full heart of dissatisfaction and pushed it open.
I saw Alice and Lianna standing at the door, with some excitement and anxiety on their faces.
"Why haven't you set off yet?" Alicia frowned, with obvious dissatisfaction in her tone.
However, Alice and Lianna said in unison: "Your Highness, we have completed the investigation!"
"What? The investigation is complete?" Alicia couldn't believe her ears. She heard an answer beyond her imagination.
Alice and Lianna nodded firmly at the same time. Then, they smiled at each other, and each took out a large number of "Cinderella" related peripheral products from their space rings. All kinds of peripherals poured out like a tide, so many that they instantly filled the entire room.
Alicia was caught off guard and was immediately submerged by the Ella doll played by Stacy.
She struggled to stand up from the pile of various dolls, her hair was a little messy and her face was full of shock and anger. She grabbed a doll and shouted, "What are you doing? What are these?"
Alice hurriedly explained: "Your Highness, this is the result of our investigation."
Then, she and Lianna talked in detail about their experiences in Crescent City.
From seeing the Crescent City full of "Cinderella" elements, to walking into the theater to watch the movie, to asking passers-by, everything was included.
During this time, they kept praising the movie for how good it was and how attractive the plot was, as if they had forgotten that they were facing Alicia, who was full of confusion and anger.
As Alicia listened to their stories, the anger in her heart was gradually replaced by curiosity.
She looked at the piles of surroundings in front of her and fell into deep thought. Could it be that Stacy's secret was really hidden in this movie called "Cinderella"?
Alice and Lianna looked at Alysia's shocked expression, and carefully took out the ultimate prize of the cinema lottery from the space ring - the same blue dress and crystal shoes as Ella.
The box containing the dress and crystal shoes was extremely exquisite, with the number 053 clearly printed on it.
When the dreamy blue dress and dazzling crystal shoes appeared before her eyes, Alicia's eyes were instantly attracted.
As a woman, like most elves, she had no resistance to such extremely beautiful things, especially the pair of uniquely shaped crystal high heels. In the continent of Azer, such a style was unheard of.
Alicia couldn't help but immediately pick up the crystal shoes, her eyes full of amazement and appreciation, and she carefully looked at every detail.
Suddenly, she realized that there were two elves around her. She coughed lightly, pretended nothing had happened, and calmly put the crystal shoes into her space ring.
Then, she regained her usual seriousness and asked, "What's going on here?"
Alice and Lianna quickly explained the details of the movie lottery and explained, "Your Highness, this is the ultimate grand prize of the movie theater lottery."
Alicia raised her eyebrows slightly and asked in surprise, "You are so lucky to win the ultimate prize?"
Alice and Lianna looked at each other with a guilty look, lowered their heads slightly, and whispered, "Your Highness, this...we bought this from another elf."
"Bought it? How much did it cost?" Alicia asked.
"8,000 gold coins—" The two men's voices became even quieter, almost as if they were mumbling to themselves.
"What!!!" Alicia couldn't help but scream when she heard the number, "Eight thousand gold coins? That's so expensive!"
Although the elves have always been wealthy, they are also extremely shrewd and will not spend money that is not worth it despite such a huge expenditure.
She looked at the two confidants in front of her with disbelief on her face. "Although the dress and crystal shoes are indeed beautiful, they are not made of any rare materials. How can this thing be worth 8,000 gold coins? Are you kidding me?"
Alice and Lianna explained weakly, "Your Highness, it took us a long time to persuade them to sell it. The number of this evening dress is not very good, otherwise the price would definitely be higher, and it would not be so 'cheap' at all."
"Cheap?" Alicia's eyes widened, feeling that her perception had been overturned. "And what does the number mean?"
Alice and Lianna quickly explained that there were only one hundred sets of this dress and crystal shoes in total, and they were extremely limited.
Alice added: "Your Highness, the evening dress and crystal shoes numbered 001 are now worth 20,000 gold coins."
As they spoke, they hurriedly took out several Aize Arcane Newspapers from their space rings, which recorded in detail the popularity of the "Cinderella" movie, as well as various rumors about the extremely expensive 001 evening dress and crystal shoes.
