Chapter 151: Chapter 21

Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio

“This is... beyond my imagination!”

The church of Void Mask had a few core members that formed an adventurer’s troop. They walked in the huge underground maze and marvelled at the sight.

Those magic beasts that had low fighting power of course couldn’t threaten them. When they felt the power that was given off by the three giant dragons, they tore off like wild beasts. The entire way, everyone barely came across any other magic beasts.

This gave them the opportunity to focus on the building itself, to look carefully into the design of the maze, and to experience the cultural ins and outs of it.

“This is unbelievable! I feel that various buildings in the maze have interlinked qualities.” Ray, who was the most accomplished artist, was deeply moved. “To be able to feel a complete cultural system, the big and small, noble and humble, kind and evil, elegant and barbaric, holy and filthy... The varieties are vast! It doesn’t look like a sheer fabrication but a representation of a huge culture, that was specially built into such historical remain!”

“Yeah, such a magnificent sight!” Snow raised her head and looked at the ‘starry sky’ above her head. It was a constellation map made of luminous ore in various sizes, and it looked exactly like a real night sky. “I feel that the constellation map is special too; it contains a pattern that is connected to horoscopes.”

Sui Xiong laughed but did not explain the origins of the set of culture and constellation map to them. He flew next to Gerald, who was like Granny Liu visiting the Grand View Gardens (one that is overwhelmed by new experiences and luxurious surroundings), and asked, “How do you feel? Interesting, right?”

“Mm, very beautiful scenery, but just a little too dark,” Gerald said. “I wouldn’t be bothered, but would the visitors be unable to see clearly?”

“The theme here is adventure. If it is too bright, it would lose its atmosphere of adventure.”

Gerald nodded and said, “Your Majesty is right!”

Sui Xiong looked at his face and he couldn’t help but murmur, “Does this bastard really know what atmosphere is? Would he reply to me with ‘Your Majesty is right’ for everything I say? Isn’t this like Sha Monk (one of the three disciples of the Buddhist pilgrim Tang Sanzang)?”

“Palin, what do you think?” He asked again.

Palin, who was dragged out from the library, seemed to be in low spirits. He took out a lollipop and put it in his mouth, and finally regained some strength. He looked at the scenery around and said, “It feels a bit stressful. If you were to let me come here alone, I would definitely not be keen on it!”

“Yeah, maybe only those that are looking for excitement would be interested.” Olian said, who left his work of city owner aside and came for a vacation. “To commoners, this is a little too stressful.”

“I feel it’s okay,” Wor said. He was a legendary expert who lived in seclusion that Sui Xiong secretly gave the nickname ‘Sweeper Monk.’”It is just the atmosphere. The magic beasts here are weak. As long as one do not ask for it, there won’t be any danger.”

“I of course cannot let them be in any danger,” Sui Xiong smiled and said. “It is a theme park after all. It is supposed to let people enjoy the thrill and excitement. Minor injuries at most, would be sufficient. The life and death situations... that kind of danger would be hard to control.”

“Yeah, if there were to be any deadly incidents, it would be troublesome!” Rhode nodded continuously. As a member that was in charge of finance and diplomacy, he had been living by the principles of ‘nothing is good thing,’ not getting into any trouble and living in stability.

The group leader of mage group, Satan, took a different starting point from the others when he was thinking. He closed his eyes and carefully understood the magic intensity through the air. Then he said with interest, “Actually, it would be a nice place for practicing. The magic intensity is very high, and the negativity was basically eliminated. Your Majesty, may I apply for magic apprentices to come over for practice, to experience the atmosphere of adventure along the way?”

“Of course!” Sui Xiong waved and agreed straightforwardly. He even added, “Inclusive of food and accommodation!”

Alright, it sounded a little improper, but Void Mask was known to speak improperly, and they were all used to it.

“Really can’t tell it’s the ground...” Frost, who had always been at odds with everyone, was walking around and he couldn’t hold back his exclamation. “It’s just like an open air historical remain during the night!”

“It’s still too bright,” The lazy bug Graupel yawned. “It’d be nicer if it was a little dimmer...

“But this place is really spacious, and there are so many magic beasts in front. It would be unlikely to be disturbed. I will only need to find an unnoticeable corner to hide myself.” Her voice went deeper, but her eyes got brighter and the corners of her lips tugged upwards and showed a suspicious smile.

After a while, she came next to Sui Xiong and asked intimately, “Your Majesty, Your Majesty, Void Mask Majesty! Don’t you think, there’s something lacking in the maze?”

Sui Xiong looked around suspiciously and searched through the entire maze with his soul sensor, but he couldn’t tell what was missing.

“Lacking what?” He asked.

Graupel smiled mysteriously and said softly, “In the historical remains, isn’t there supposed to be a strong monster?”

Sui Xiong was stunned and nodded subconsciously.

Like she said, whether if its a maze or a historical remains, there should a leader for the monsters.

But... to make a leading kind of monster here? It would make the magic beasts too powerful and increase unnecessary risks for the adventurers.

After all, magic beasts were not things that one could negotiate with. Even if they used carrots and clubs to force them to listen, it would be difficult to guarantee that there wouldn’t be any accidents.

Once there was an accident, the adventurers would encounter life threats!

“It’s inconvenient!” He sighed. “This place doesn’t suit a beast that is overly powerful!”

“It’s convenient!” Graupel smiled. “There could be a dragon!”

Dragon?!

Sui Xiong looked at her while she pointed at herself and laughed happily.

“You?!”

“Yes! I can always stay here, and pretend to be the head of the monsters in the maze!” Graupel smiled and said. “Although I am not that old, I am a giant dragon. If I live here and pretend to be the head of the monsters, wouldn’t it be suitable?”

“To let a lady stay underground all year round? That’s not very nice.”

Frost, who was listening quietly, couldn’t hold back his laughter anymore. “What’s not nice about that? We rock dragons are supposed to stay in underground caves!”

Sui Xiong then responded. Although Graupel held the appearance of a little girl, she was a rock dragon. Rock dragon was a type of giant dragon that liked to stay in underground caves. An environment like the maze would suit her.

“But you are a kid after all. You should eat more, do more exercise, learn more, and walk around outside more.”

“Stop treating me like a child!” Graupel said angrily. “I am almost 100 years old!”

“You’re only 100 years old. You giant dragons are only considered adults when you are 200 years old.”

“You are not a dragon! Why do you care so much!”

Looking at Graupel being angry, Sui Xiong was upset.

Why did she suddenly get angry?

He looked towards Frost. Frost had smile plastered on his face and looked like he was only going to watch.

He sighed and looked towards Snow. “Snow, what is going on?”

Snow waved her hand and there was a blackboard made of ice that appeared in the air. There was a little dragon that looking around that snuck into the basement under the house. It used a cup to cover itself and slept.

“Graupel is a lazy bug. What she likes the most is finding a place to sleep. It wouldn’t be a problem for her to sleep for a few days and nights straight.”

Sui Xiong nodded faintly. He understood this perfectly.

On the blackboard, the little dragon was dragged out. It was dozing off with tears in its eyes while it work at the counter.

“Needless for me to explain, right?”

Sui Xiong laughed. The painting is too vivid!

In front of the little dragon, there was a deep underground cave, and a huge house in the depths of the cave. It jumped happily into the house and finally came to a corner. There was suddenly a huge blanket that covered it and it started sleeping again.

“Look: it’s underground, spacious and no one would bother her. Isn’t this the best spot to sleep?” Snow laughed and said. “There weren’t many adventurers that could come before her. Even if they were here, would those commoners really dare to challenge a giant dragon?”

Sui Xiong constantly nodded and finally understood what she meant.

On the blackboard, the little dragon slept soundly while the adventurers snuck past her and got into the pub. Every adventurer was drinking while chatting.

No one knew when the piece of signboard appeared next to the little dragon. The signboard had a row of words printed:

Working Hard; In Progress. action

Sui Xiong laughed and touched Graupel’s hair with his tentacles. “You are such a lazy bug! To be able to sleep under broad daylight, you racked your brain!”

Graupel’s stratagem was exposed before her and she blushed. She stuttered but she couldn’t say anything. After a while, she became angry out of embarrassment and shouted while she made threatening gestures.

It was noisy in the maze as everyone was laughing happily.

But no doubt, her concept was good. If they were to add a giant dragon in the maze, it would definitely give the adventurers an entirely different and thrilling experience.

And for the lazy bug, maybe only such a job would be suitable for her.

After discussion, it was set. Sui Xiong took action on the spot, and made her a remarkably lifelike dragon cave.

The dragon cave looked like a cave on the surface, but the wall and the ground were full of traces of fights. There were swords and guns, arrows and crossbows, and also magic traces. It seemed like a scene right after a vigorous fight.

Inside the spacious dragon cave, there were many battle marks near the entrance, while the inner section had a pile of gold coins. Behind the pile of gold coins, there was a small hidden door and that would lead them into a house that was not luxurious, but comfortable. There wasn’t anything else in the house but a set of warm blankets.

The gold coins were donation from Sui Xiong, while the blanket was Graupel’s treasure that wouldn’t leave her side.

When the dragon cave was done, Graupel cheered and turned into her original form, and jumped onto the pile of gold coins.

“I will live here then!” She announced. “I won’t go anywhere else!”
