Chapter 448: 447. The Amusement Park Statutes (Monthly Pass Extra Update!)_1 Chapter 448: 447. The Amusement Park Statutes (Monthly Pass Extra Update!)_1 [You have received a mission invitation from a Chosen by Gods.]

Seeing these words, Lu Ban felt it was a bit miraculous.

He had been preparing to wait for mission invitations from other Chosen by Gods, and then this invitation arrived, wasn’t there a sense of destiny in this?

But after careful thought, Lu Ban discovered the trick.

As everyone knows, time flows differently in the Silent Lands, and moreover, the missions of the Silent Lands can exceed the boundaries of time, sending Lu Ban to the past or future of the Foreign Domain. Therefore, in theory, the task releases of the Foreign Domain don’t have to follow the conventional rules of time.

That is to say, it was possible that some time had passed since the last mission that Lu Ban and Shia Old Cui had completed, and they might have gone through one or two missions in between before encountering a task that required a partner, inviting Lu Ban, while on Lu Ban’s side, the invitation was received instantly.

Because the three missions Lu Ban undertook to the Abandoned Capital spanned over four to five years, yet only one to two years had passed in this world, it could be inferred that the Silent Lands would issue a mission at the most appropriate time to the most suitable person.

“I wonder who sent the mission?”

Lu Ban opened the mission invitation.

The text on the old newspaper changed, becoming the System’s indifferent and cold explanation.

The Amusement Park Statutes

[The comfort and safety of the guests are the foremost responsibilities of every amusement park employee; therefore, all amusement park staff must abide by The Amusement Park Statutes.]

[If guests see things they shouldn’t see, take photos they shouldn’t take, or go places they shouldn’t go, please guide them according to the requirements of the Statutes.]

[Constantly check your dress and demeanor to ensure that you greet all guests and other things in the most perfect manner.]

[Following The Amusement Park Statutes will help secure a safe and joyful journey to the happiest place on earth.]

[Task difficulty: Sublimation.]

[Task requirement: Enter the amusement park.]

[Task requirement: Experience all the attractions of the amusement park.]

[Task requirement: Master all The Amusement Park Statutes.]

[Task requirement: Survive.]

[Partner: Shia Quelreis.]

[Do you accept the invitation?]

[Yes][No]

“Amusement park, which Foreign Domain is that from?”

Lu Ban felt strange, whether it be the Night Country or the Wasteland, neither had the concept of an amusement park, and He Dao and the Abandoned Capital, supposedly, did not have the conditions to build one either.

Furthermore, without any description of the name of the Foreign Domain, Lu Ban believed that this might refer to the world he was currently in.

“What the hell is the name of my world?”

Lu Ban had never seen any definitive descriptions of the world he was in from item introductions or mission descriptions.

Does this imply that the world Lu Ban was in might have some unique aspects?

“Hm? There is only Shia as the partner, could it be that Old Cui doesn’t have the time to participate?”

Lu Ban felt something was off; according to his earlier line of thought, the Silent Lands would send a mission to a Chosen by Gods at the most suitable time, meaning it wouldn’t invite Cui Siter if he was on another mission or in a situation hard to get out of.

As for Shia, Lu Ban felt sure that an invitation would have been sent to Cui Siter, it made no sense to invite only him.

Thus, it was possible that Cui Siter either declined this mission or didn’t accept it for some reason.

“Did something happen?”

Lu Ban sensed something was amiss.

Of course, he was definitely going to accept the invitation.

He clicked [Yes].

The scenery around him did not change, but Lu Ban saw that the System’s text twisted, turning into a countdown.

The countdown was roughly three hours; he didn’t know whether it meant the start of the mission or something else.

“Looking at it this way, it indeed seems to be a mission from the world where I’m now.”

“Amusement park, could it really be that one at the Lingjiang Riverside?”

“Is this amusement park related to the Foreign Domain?”

As Lu Ban was pondering, he saw the newspaper’s news photos suddenly twist into something ferocious, like an abstract artist’s painting, it formed a bizarre map.

At first glance, Lu Ban found the shapes on the map quite familiar.

After searching the map, he discovered that it was indeed the structure of Lingjiang.

“Indeed, it’s that amusement park.”

Considering what Feng Yu had once said that the supernatural items of this world were strange, and the culmination of those strangenesses were the Rules, such as his experience in “Terror Cinema.” The Rules were to sit through an entire movie in a haunted cinema, and if one made any corresponding reaction to the movie’s images, they would be punished, ultimately leading to death.

So, could this amusement park also be the embodiment of some sort of rules?

“The task requires mastering the statutes of the amusement park, do these statutes refer to the park’s rules? Only by deciphering the rules can one leave the park alive?”

Lu Ban had grasped the essence of the task.

Perhaps the purpose of the Silent Lands was to investigate the eerie rules of Lu Ban’s world and to master its strangeness.

After all, these oddities were difficult to erase, and only a stronger source of Pollution could cover them up.

“Sublimation difficulty, should this be a higher level of task difficulty?”

Lu Ban hadn’t unlocked the next phase of tasks yet, so he wasn’t very clear on the specifics, but it was certain it must be more difficult than [Metamorphosis].

“So the next step after [Metamorphosis] is Sublimation, and I suddenly feel it has taken on a sacred air.”

He was also amazed by Shia’s progress.

If this was a task she had taken on and not one that had been forcibly activated because she came into contact with something strange, then it meant that Shia was completing tasks at a pretty fast rate too. After all, when she first took on a task, Lu Ban had already completed several, and now, Shia had already started the next phase of tasks, while Lu Ban had yet to arrive.

“Magic really is a convenient and good thing.”

Lu Ban couldn’t help but think that when others had abilities for wide-range damage, anomaly detection, Quantum Fluctuation Reading, efficient healing, and yours is a repeating machine, the gap becomes even more pronounced.

Of course, this might also be because after leaving the Abandoned Capital, Shia herself had undertaken several tasks to reach her current level.

“Anyway, could this countdown possibly be related to Shia’s arrival?”

Lu Ban left the library and returned home.

Just as he prepared to pack some stuff, he heard a knock on the door.

“This soon?”

With the countdown still having a few minutes left, Lu Ban felt it was a bit odd.

He looked through the peephole.

It was Feng Yu.

She was wearing a dark long trench coat, her hair seemed to have grown a bit, and it was simply tied at the back of her head with a hairband, forming a small braid. Besides her, there stood a compact bright yellow suitcase.

Lu Ban opened the door.

“Long time no see, did you miss me?”

Feng Yu revealed a spring-like warm smile.

“Where have you been this time?”

Lu Ban let her in and glanced at the suitcase again.

“You don’t have something like a body packed inside here, do you?”

“What do you take me for?”

Feng Yu closed the door and opened the suitcase.

Inside were just some toiletries and make-up items, things that one shouldn’t casually reveal to boys.

“I went to Massachusetts to have a look; a friend there ran into some troubles. I reckon I’ll have to go back there again.”

Feng Yu closed the suitcase.

“I saw your reality show, it was pretty good.”

She then said to Lu Ban.

“I just arranged a stage for the characters to move on their own.”

Lu Ban responded.

“It’s so cold today, shall we go have hot pot? Shall we invite Tiantian?”

Feng Yu tidied her hair in the mirror on the wall of the living room.

Before Lu Ban could respond, he heard footsteps coming from his bedroom.

A girl with slightly curly blonde hair and green eyes peeked her head out from the door; she was draped in a long robe, and it seemed there was nothing underneath, with hints of her fair arms as white as lotus roots showing.

“Lu Ban, who is this?”

Shia opened her eyes wide and looked curiously at Feng Yu.

“Well, look at you being all grown-up, knowing how to bring girls home now,” Feng Yu said smilingly to Lu Ban, her expression devoid of actual mirth.
