On the other side, Tangcao and the others finally changed their clothes.
Although they had secretly swapped outfits at home once, they were still shocked by each other's beauty after putting on makeup this time.
"Tangtang, you, you're so beautiful!"
Looking at Tang Cao walking out of the dressing room, Su Siyao's big eyes immediately filled with countless hearts, giving off a feeling of "Sister, you smell so good".
Of course, Su Siyao had no other thoughts about her best friend, but Tang Cao's outfit was just too stunning.
She was wearing an exquisite corset made of the finest silk, which shimmered with a captivating luster under any light source. The corset was a deep and noble purple, perfectly outlining her slender waist.
The corset is a standard aristocratic garment, and since nobles in the dream world also practice combat, their clothing needs to be more convenient for movement.
The neckline is an elegant circle, perfectly revealing Tang Cao's slender, snow-white neck, like a swan. There is a large blue diamond at the neckline, which is not artificially synthesized, but a genuine product of alchemy.
The sleeves of the dress are lantern sleeves, and the bodysuit gradually tightens from the chest down, making Tang Caoben's already tall figure appear even more upright.
Tang Cao's long hair was tied up, with a few strands falling beside her cheeks. She lost some of her girlish beauty but gained a lot of heroic spirit, making her look like a young man who had just attended his coming-of-age ceremony.
This unique androgynous beauty captivated everyone around. Some cosplayers couldn't resist taking out their phones. If they had taken photos before to collect memories, at this moment, they had an urge to preserve this scene forever.
"No, it's all thanks to your good taste in clothes, brother." Tang Cao smiled, blushing, then went to Su Siyao and said, "And you look beautiful too."
"Really?" Su Siyao looked down at herself.
Compared to Tang Cao's elegant aristocratic aura, she felt she was far inferior.
The clothes Tang Zijun prepared for Su Siyao were not strictly a complete set, but rather a combination of several items she bought from different stalls and modified herself. And what she wore was none other than the attire of an alchemist from the dream world.
In that world, alchemists did not have a strict clothing system. After all, they often dealt with extraordinary energy, and their clothes could easily be damaged by explosions or other dangers during experiments. Therefore, most alchemists dressed quite simply in their daily lives.
However, alchemists are not without nice clothes. For example, those alchemists who serve the nobility have special clothes for attending various banquets.
These garments were specially designed for nobles, not only to add to their nobility but also to reflect their status as alchemists.
Just like Su Siyao at this moment, her belt was adorned with a string of exquisite accessories, including a small glass bottle, a delicate keychain, and several glittering medals. Paired with her glasses, she really did have the air of an alchemy master.
However, Su Siyao was still a little dissatisfied. "I feel a bit stuffy; the position of my chest really should be adjusted..."
Tang Cao smiled and stared at Su Siyao.

Just as the two were talking, the door to another dressing room opened, and Qin Nan walked out slowly with her arms crossed.
Although she appeared nonchalant, her eyes betrayed a hint of panic.
Upon arriving in front of Tang Cao and Su Siyao, Qin Nan was first taken aback by Tang Cao's stunning charm, and then asked somewhat nervously.
"Ahem... Um, how do I look?"
Her original wolf tail was tied into a ponytail and casually tied behind her head. Qin Nan wore a brown leather armor that fit her body perfectly and was inlaid with silver patterns that looked like some kind of writing.
Qin Nan wore a pair of black high-top leather boots, and a purple crystal dagger hung at his waist. Originally, it was just a leather holster without a weapon, but Qin Nan used his dagger to complete the look.
Judging from their attire, both Qin Nan and Tang Cao have a neutral feel, but Qin Nan's overall style gives people a completely different feeling from Tang Cao's. It is a wonderfully wild beauty, and her clothing is naturally more like a mercenary style.
"So handsome, Sister Qin!" Su Siyao was the first to exclaim.
I have to say, this girl has a knack for providing emotional value.
Tang Cao rushed forward and grabbed Qin Nan's hand. "Ah! I really want to try this outfit on you too! You look like the protagonist of an isekai anime; you'd be an SSR in a game!"
"Is that so?" Qin Nan slightly shook her lower lip, suppressing a laugh as her lips twitched. "It's a pity animals aren't allowed here, otherwise Little Gray would have been even more eye-catching... although crows and falcons would have been a better match."
At that moment, the door to the last dressing room opened, and Tan Zhixin walked out with Katie, instantly attracting everyone's attention.
The two women walked out together, but their clothes and auras created a stark contrast.
Katie was wearing a long black robe with dark gold patterns embroidered along the edges. These were runes from the dream world, usually used for detecting evil creatures and for defense, but here they gave off a mysterious air.
Her hair cascaded down like a waterfall, and her delicate features made her look like an adorable porcelain doll, captivating all who looked at her.
Beside her, Tan Zhixin wore a relatively pure white gown. The white fabric was clean and holy, without any flaws.
A green ribbon was tied at her neckline, making her look extremely dignified. Her hair was braided, with the rest hanging down to her waist. Overall, she gave off an indescribable feeling, making people only want to admire her from afar and not dare to approach her.
Katie's clothes were a magician's robe, but unfortunately Tang Zijun searched for a long time and only found this one. It was said that it was found in a baron's castle, and its original owner should have been a magician who served the baron.
As for Tan Zhixin's outfit, that was quite extraordinary; it wouldn't be an exaggeration to say it was the most unique among these clothes.
Because she was wearing the robes of a healer from the Church of Nature.
In peacetime, you can't just wear this kind of clothing indiscriminately, but after the outbreak of the War of the Gods, it doesn't matter anymore. As long as you don't wear this clothing to swindle or cause trouble for certain churches, generally no one will bother you.
After all, during the War of the Gods, the fact that someone was still willing to wear church clothes, regardless of whether that person was a believer or not, at least proved to the outside world that the sect had not disappeared.
To be honest, with Tan Zhixin's appearance paired with this outfit, she really does have a bit of a Herrscher feel to her. She could probably be mistaken for a real person even in the dream world.
As the two walked out, the atmosphere around them seemed to freeze.
Many intense gazes fell upon them, and their breathing seemed to become somewhat heavy.
If any one of them were standing here, someone would definitely rush up to ask for a photo. But the aura of these five people together is too strong. Although the people around them may have the idea, their feet seem to be rooted to the ground and they can't lift them no matter what.
Tang Cao and the others were naturally unaware of what the others were thinking; all she could think about was rushing out to give her stinky older brother a big surprise.
"I wonder what kind of expression my brother will have when he sees us, hehehe..."
"He'll probably be so captivated he won't even know who to look at!"
"Don't even mention Brother Tang, I don't know who to look at anymore," Su Siyao couldn't help but say.
"Perfect timing, let's go ask Tang Zijun to take a picture of us together," Qin Nan suggested.
The proposal was immediately accepted by everyone.
Having made their decision, the women immediately crossed the corridor and headed towards the exhibition hall.
It has to be said that special clothing can change a person to some extent. When Tang Cao and Su Siyao were wearing their usual clothes, they would play around and joke around, but now that they have changed into these clothes, they have immediately become quiet.
There was nothing they could do about it; their group was simply too eye-catching.
The dressing room was fine before, as there weren't many people there, and they were mostly staff. But once they entered the exhibition hall, they attracted a lot of attention like magnets.
Apart from Su Siyao being a little nervous, the others were fine. Qin Nan and Tan Zhixin had strong mental fortitude and had long since learned to block out other people's gazes. Tang Cao was already used to these stares, and as for Katie, she didn't care at all—it wasn't her brother's gaze.
Tang Cao craned her neck and looked around several times, but couldn't find Tang Zijun anywhere.
"Strange...where's my bro?"
"Did you go shopping somewhere else? After all, it took us quite a while to change clothes," Tan Zhixin said softly.
"Then I'll make a call and ask," Qin Nan said, taking her phone out of her shoulder bag.
Her outfit is probably the easiest to hold a phone in among them.
He dialed the number, but it showed that the other party's phone was switched off. Hearing the notification tone coming from the receiver, Qin Nan frowned slightly.
"How is it?" Su Siyao asked.
"Tang Zijun's phone is off..."
"Shut down? Didn't he come out fully charged this morning?" Tang Cao blinked.
"That's one thing," Qin Nan said, her expression also a little strange. "Who knows what he's up to..."
"Could something have happened?"
"Impossible. Don't forget where we are. How could an accident happen with so many people here?" Qin Nan shook his head.
Just then, Katie, who had been silent all along, suddenly frowned.
"Um... Sister..."
"Um... Sister..."
"Um?"
Although Katie always seemed to be invisible, Tangcao would always respond immediately whenever she spoke.
"Don't you guys think...?"
Katie looked puzzled.
"The energy response around us seems a bit strange..."
