Alice in the Land of Steam

Chapter 624: Amazing performance?

Following Lingge, several other judges also gave their scores.

"9 points." Miss Xie Liya gave a professional evaluation: "Both her appearance and figure are impeccable, and the swimsuit she chose is also in line with the temperament of a literary girl. This pure, elegant, and pitiful style is indeed impressive. However, the only flaw is that Miss Avella's control of her personality is not very good. The personality that a literary girl should really embody is a kind of generous quality, the kind of calmness that is shy in the heart but remains calm on the surface, trying to show her beautiful side to her lover, and sometimes even teasing the other party instead of losing her composure just because the other party admires her swimsuit. From this aspect, Miss Avella is obviously too shy and lacks intelligence, so I can't give her full marks."

When Aoweila heard this comment, she weakly bared her teeth at the judges. It was cute, but it had no deterrent effect at all: "Who, who is my sweetheart! Don't talk nonsense!"

"Then I give her full marks." Little Sun said slowly, "Because Avra ​​is very beautiful, of course she should be given full marks."

Moreover, Olvera was a student of Lady Tree. After Lady Tree passed away, her reputation among the magical herbs in the herb garden was probably second only to that of the proprietress Shesta, who watered them every day.

Of course, this reason cannot be spoken out loud because some people will question the fairness of the competition.

"Meh (9 points)!"

"Oh? Did the lamb judge still only give 1 point? Such a pure and beautiful swimsuit can't impress it. It's too strict. I wonder when I can see it give a higher score than 1 point?"

“Meh!?”

Alice ignored the lamb's anxious bleating, and after deciding its score, she stood there counting on her fingers for a few minutes, and finally came to the conclusion: "So, Miss Olvera's average score is - 7 points! Oh, it's such an unexpectedly low score that doesn't match her outstanding performance. Among them, the lamb judge's 1 point is undoubtedly the key factor that lowered the overall score. Alas, if I had known this, I should have made a rule to remove the highest and lowest scores before calculating the average score before the competition started. Olvera, I'm sorry for you."

Alice sincerely comforted her. The Princess of Beman pouted with red eyes, but still said stubbornly: "It doesn't matter. I don't care about the score..."

Before she finished speaking, she seemed to be touched by something sad. She pursed her thin lips and walked off the stage dejectedly. Before leaving, she gave the lamb a sad look. The audience below was enraged, especially the magic herbs in the herb garden. They shouted, "How could our beautiful Miss Olvera only get one point?" Wouldn't the deceased Mrs. Tree cry for her student when she saw this result? It must be suppression, it must be a conspiracy, it must be a smear! Rematch, strongly demand a rematch!
The lamb was horrified and said, "Baa!?"

I was framed by Alice! She completely twisted my meaning! She was the one who gave Olvera a score of 1!

Unfortunately, no one can understand what it says, so no one knows who the real mastermind is.

"Oh, this." A certain mastermind wiped the sweat from his forehead and laughed awkwardly: "The audience's cheers are really enthusiastic. It makes our competition venue boil. I believe they can't wait to see the next contestant appear. Then, without further ado, let's welcome her with warm applause!" Ignoring the riots and calls of the audience, the host forcibly carried out the next contestant. She believed that as long as this contestant appeared, the dissatisfaction and anger of the audience would soon subside, because she was the real heavyweight, that is -

"Let us welcome the most beautiful, elegant, mature and intellectual woman on the entire Whale Island, who likes to take care of flowers and plants and loves her younger sister, who takes care of three meals a day and has extremely balanced nutrition, who has a figure that makes some little girls envious, who has a temperament that makes some self-proclaimed literary princesses feel ashamed, and who is the soul of the Fairy Deep Sleep Hotel, Miss Shesta!!!"

Blah blah blah!

The dissatisfaction and anger from the audience were instantly drowned out by warm cheers and thunderous applause. The rabbit gentlemen were jumping up and down, the magic plants were cheering and applauding, and even the silly-looking stone elf guards were clapping their hands vigorously. The atmosphere was suddenly extremely noisy, sweeping across the entire beach like a surging tide.

Olvera, who had just walked to the stage, turned her head and found that in the blink of an eye, no one was standing up for her. They were all busy cheering and applauding for the new contestants. Who would care about a loser who only scored 7 points? It can be said that only the newcomers laugh, and no one listens to the old ones cry. She, she... she shut herself in.

“Wow!” Princess Beman squatted on the ground with tears in her eyes: “This world is not real!”

Well, anyway, no matter how autistic Olvera is, let’s first shift our attention to contestant Shesta.

After the innkeeper walked out of the cabin, she first waved to the audience with a smile, and then walked to the stage with an elegant step, showing her swimsuit in front of the judges. She seemed to have changed her style today. The color of the swimsuit was overall mysterious and charming. The thin string suspenders were dark purple, and the outline was inlaid with dark gold patterns, like clouds at dusk. She also exposed her shoulders and arms, but unlike Ovella, she was not as bashful as she was, but generously showed her beauty. Despite this, the judges' first sight did not fall on these places, but were attracted by her tall and broad mind. The host even said "this is not healthy", and then rubbed the hot nostrils, fortunately there was no bleeding.

The lower body is made of a dark purple gauze skirt dotted with white spots, like the mysterious starlight at night; the hem of the gauze skirt hangs to the knees, and there is no pattern on the edge, but there are some broken places, as if it has been torn, and the slender legs are faintly visible under these tears, showing a primitive charm; the silver long hair hanging down to the waist is draped with a dark purple gauze, and the wrists and calves are wearing bracelets and anklets decorated with golden bells, which tinkle when she walks; but the most eye-catching thing is indeed the golden waist ring that passes around her slender waist, shining in the sunlight, and the intricate and dazzling patterns and the crimson cat's eye stone perfectly inlaid on the belly button make people think of the ancient families of the ancient land and sea countries, full of exotic colors and exoticism that are difficult to describe in words.

She gently stood on tiptoe, sinking her toes deeply into the soft sand, supporting the weight of her body with only one foot, and folding the other foot inward and placing it parallel to her knee. Then she slowly raised her hands and moved her wrists slightly, and the golden bell on the bracelet made a crisp sound, echoing in the distant wind.

This posture is somewhat similar to the dance postures of the priests of the ancient Lujianhai countries when they prayed to the gods. It is said that these dances have extremely strict requirements on the physique, temperament, sensitivity, nerve reaction speed and joint flexibility of the worshipers. They have been lost for a long time since the collapse of those countries, and only sporadic records have been passed down.

Shesta narrowed her eyes, like two talking crescent moons, and smiled at the four judges on the jury: "I have wanted to try this style of clothing for a long time, but I didn't expect to get the chance today. This is indeed a precious and cherished experience for me, and I hope you feel the same way."
