Chapter 359 - TROPICAL LAND
"IF that Lhoris resigned on the same day that we awoke Dusk, then there's no doubt that he felt the dragon's awakening," Luo Yan said when they walked out of the main office. "That alone was evidence enough that he was, in some way, connected to the dragon. Maybe he even knows the reason why Dusk was slumbering away in that cave."
"So, all the more reason we should find him," Shen Ji Yun said, agreeing to everything Luo Yan just said. "He had been working here for years. There's no way none of the people here wouldn't know anything about him. Maybe one of them could tell us where he went after he resigned."
"I believe so as well." Luo Yan turned to Shen Ji Yun. "Then Brother Ji Yun, should we check the rides and attractions here as we go along searching for information about Lhoris?"
Because according to the female NPC they just talked to, Lhoris didn't have a specific ride or attraction where he worked. He was like one of those jack-of-all trades who provided help and support to any parts of the park that needed it. So, really, they had no choice but to go around the park.
"We could?" Shen Ji Yun asked with an unbelieving expression on his face.
Luo Yan smiled amusedly. "Yes. Didn't Brother Ji Yun say that after we found the moon elf, we could go around the amusement park? And since Lhoris is apparently not here, we could as well take this opportunity to have fun while looking for information about him. What do you think?"
"Yes, we should do that," Shen Ji Yun readily agreed, looking like a kid who just had been given his favorite candy.
Luo Yan chuckled seeing him like that. "Then where should we first go?"
Shen Ji Yun already checked the whole area of the amusement park a week ago. Tropical Land was divided into five areas.
Dream Land which was located at the very center. One of its prominent features was the fairytale themed castle. There was a train there that was designed to travel around the area encompassing Dream Land. This location was also where the nightly electric-light themed parade happened, accompanied by floats and dancers. A carousel ride could also be found here.
On the south-eastern area was the Mystery Land. It's most famous ride was the Mystery Coaster where the ride entered dark tunnels in which ghost and other phantoms or monsters would appear to intentionally scare the people riding on the coaster. There was also a giant ice mountain where a labyrinth was located. A cart ride was provided to anyone who wanted to explore the labyrinth. This area also had an amphitheater where different stage shows could be watched.
Wild Land was on the north-eastern part of the park. This was the home to river rapids and river cruise rides. There were volcano river rapids where people could ride a boat and go down those rapids. Another one was a cruise ship that could accommodate a lot of passengers. This cruise ship would go around a tropical jungle area and would also provide a lot of entertainment on board.
The one located at the north-western part of the park was called Adventure Land. One of its prominent features was the underwater coaster which goes into underwater tunnels. Not only would it provide thrills, it would also provide a great view of the sea bed. One could also go to a pirate boat ride in this area. Rides like swinging ship and giant drop ride could also be found here.
And lastly, Space Land could be found at the south-western part of the park. Features like a water fountain plaza where people could meet and watch several fountains that activate during certain parts of the day could be found here. And of course, the most famous ride – the Ferris Wheel was also here.
Shen Ji Yun took out a map of Tropical Land from his Items Tab and showed it to Luo Yan. ���This is the map of the whole amusement park. How about we start here at Dream Land then go to Mystery Land after? We will go counter-clockwise and finish at Space Land. What do you think?"
This way, they could ride the Ferris wheel as the very last ride.
Luo Yan looked down at the map. It's very detailed and comprehensive. The name of each areas was written, as well as the name of the different rides and attractions. He looked at the center area which was called 'Dream Land' and then at the area called 'Space Land'. The blaring letters 'Ferris wheel' could be seen at the latter. He couldn't help but secretly smile. Because he already had an idea what Shen Ji Yun was thinking about.
He raised his head and said, "Okay, let's do that."
They rode their horses and traveled towards the center area where Dream Land was located. There were still a few distance away but Luo Yan could already see the fairytale themed castle. It looked like one of those castles on those famous fairytale movies.
They jumped off from the horses they were riding and tied its reins on the provided area for horses. Just like a parking lot or something. There was a scanner there where one could swipe the bracelet provided by the amusement park. This way, it could prevent people from taking horses that they didn't rent.
"Should we just ask all the NPCs we came across with?" Luo Yan asked.
"Let's do that," Shen Ji Yun agreed.
As they started walking, he noticed a stall on the side selling cute animal ears. His eyes immediately zeroed on the white rabbit ears.
"Yan Yan, wait a minute here."
Luo Yan automatically stopped. Then he saw Shen Ji Yun running towards a stall. He became curious and a bit confused at the same time. He wondered if he saw something important or what. A few minutes later, Shen Ji Yun came running back. He looked like he was holding something behind him. Before he could ask what that was, he suddenly felt something being put on his head.
Shen Ji Yun gazed down at Luo Yan with a white rabbit ears on top of his head. He couldn't help the bright smile that appeared on his face.
"Cute."
