Chapter 467: 466. [Mysterious Amusement Park]_1 Chapter 467: 466. [Mysterious Amusement Park]_1 “I should head back,”
said Shia, casting one last reluctant gaze at the amusement park’s restaurant.
The food there was quite delicious.
Whether it was turkey legs the size of an arm, fries as thick as fingers, chicken nuggets as big as fists, or the blood-red tomato juice, all were exceptionally tasty.
In Night Country, where oil and water were scarce, such fried foods were almost unseen.
Besides, a hot water bath was quite enjoyable, and Shia planned to try it once back, since heating water with magic was a simple matter.
“If there’s a chance, search for any traces of Old Cui and Du Danping,”
Lu Ban said.
“Don’t worry,”
Shia patted the armor on her chest, producing a crackling sound.
“But what about this amusement park? I assume your world hasn’t been much polluted by the Foreign Domain yet?”
She asked further, feeling a tinge of melancholy when speaking of the pollution from the Foreign Domain.
Who would have thought that in the Silent Lands there existed an uncorrupted and tranquil Foreign Domain? In contrast, Night Country seemed like a leaf gnawed by insects, riddled with holes.
And the thought that such an uncorrupted place would one day be eroded by pollution made Shia even sadder.
“The strangeness of this world is rooted in rules; once the rules are deciphered, this amusement park might disappear or pop up somewhere else,”
Lu Ban explained, noting the good thing was the barrier between the common folk and the bizarre; those who witnessed strangeness perished, usually preventing the spread of related knowledge.
The downside, however, was that commoners were utterly unable to combat it—if they encountered it, they would die.
“That’s good to hear,”
Shia nodded, then turned to Feng Yu.
“I’m very thankful for this time, and I hope we get to meet again.”
“We will,”
Feng Yu said with a smile.
Shia’s figure then distorted and vanished into the grey-white fog.
“Now you have to deal with the cognitive issues of those amusement park visitors,”
Feng Yu said, glancing at the rescue team members shining their flashlights into the fog.
“Most will probably suffer from mental problems caused by contamination upon leaving the park; the few with diminished sanity… well, no one is likely to believe what they say,”
Lu Ban stated after reviewing the new knowledge that had just emerged in his mind.
“And…”
With a wave of his hand, the huge, decaying amusement park was swiftly engulfed by the thick fog and vanished from sight.
In its place, a miniature-scale amusement park appeared in Lu Ban’s palm.
This was the [Mysterious Amusement Park].
Yes, what Lu Ban acquired this time was not a video clip, but an entire bizarre amusement park.
The knowledge of the amusement park coalesced in Lu Ban’s mind, causing pollution but also giving him the method to use this object.
Simply put, it was a supernatural item, similar to the things sold at the Silent Department Store.
In Lu Ban’s eyes, several lines of cold text surfaced above the miniature town.
[Mysterious Amusement Park]
Sublimation
[A park filled with laughter and joy!!!]
[Ferris wheel! Carousel! Roller coaster! Haunted house! And delicious restaurants with lively parades!]
[Once you enter the park, your smile becomes eternal, and happiness lasts forever. No worries of time passing swiftly, no fears of fleeting joy, everything you desire is right here.]
[Note: Please follow the park’s rules and enjoy the rides under the guidance of the staff.]
[“This place is so much fun, I really want to stay here forever!”]
Wow, an item of Sublimated quality.
Sublimation was evidently a level beyond [Metamorphosis]. Since the [Twisted Mask of Pain] from [Metamorphosis] could sell for over a million, wouldn’t this tiny town fetch several millions if tossed into the store?
With this thought, Lu Ban immediately placed it in the Silent Department Store to check the suggested retail price.
[Suggested Retail Price: 5,555,555 Silence Points]
Seeing this, Lu Ban found it hard to keep his composure.
“Five million Silence Points, seriously?”
If he sold this item outright, Lu Ban could basically stop completing missions and rest on his laurels for a lifetime without doing anything.
However, he then considered that, even after having smoothly completed so many missions and diligently accumulated only several hundred thousand points thus far, most of which he had spent on extracting Essence from “Testament.”
For the average Chosen by Gods, unless they fell off a cliff every day, their points would probably be about the same as Lu Ban’s, with the craftiest ones having at most a million, I guess.
Putting up an item for five million serves no purpose but to show off.
Because no one can afford that item.
And since he could only fluctuate the price around the suggested retail value, there was no way he could just sell it off for a loss and donate it for a charitable cause for just tens of thousands.
The price of this thing was just for reference, to assess the potential harm.
Lu Ban speculated that of those five million, roughly three million might represent the intrinsic value of the strangeness itself, while the remaining two million might be the price of the Time Worm. Only the combination of both comprised the challenge of Sublimation level tasks.
It was basically a buy one, get one free deal.
“Okay, I’ve given you help too, remember to come and help me next time.”
Feng Yu saw the miniature town in Lu Ban’s palm, asked nothing, but just extended her hand toward him.
“Are you hungry? Let’s go home and eat something.”
“Sure.”
Lu Ban then grabbed Feng Yu’s hand.
In the following moment, he felt the scenery around him plunge into a burst of kaleidoscopic colors, and when he came back to his senses, he was standing in the living room of his house.
Laika had somehow returned and was incessantly meowing around Lu Ban.
“You can wash up, I’ll go make dinner.”
Feng Yu, with the ease of the lady of the house, went to the kitchen, opened the fridge, and took out the vegetables and meat she had stored to start preparing the meal.
Lu Ban went to the bathroom, looked at himself in the mirror, and washed his face.
Back in the living room, he saw the reflection twisting on the coffee table, forming into the System’s cold and solemn text.
He now had two things to do.
Firstly, to confirm the next phase of Essence Extraction materials for “Testament,” determining the choice of tasks thereafter.
Secondly, to have a look at the career development task to see what fun task was next for Lu Ban.
Opening “Testament’s” interface, Lu Ban didn’t go for any fancy trick but directly checked the next phase’s Essence Extraction materials.
[Essence Extraction]
[“Sublimation Qualitative Change”]
[Expend resources, obtain miracles]
[Recommended Attempt]
[Required Silence Points: 500,000]
[Required Material: Life-pattern Jade]
[Required Material: Twisted Heart of the Swarm]
[Required Material: Taoist Crane Cry’s Pale Knuckles]
Upon seeing these three materials, Lu Ban couldn’t help but fall into deep thought.
He first clicked on the description of the first material.
[Life-pattern Jade]
[Legend has it that this precious gem can fill the flaws in a person’s life pattern, and such gems are also known as Life Jades.]
[To many people, fate is predetermined, and while they believe in it, they try to defy and change their destiny.]
[Ironically, they all failed.]
