[Amusement Park: Eternal Night City]
This is indeed an amusement park.
After getting off the roller coaster, Bai Zhi confirmed this in his mind once again.
He also learned the name of the amusement park from the notices on the roadside signs.
The name of this amusement park is "Eternal Night City".
Ferris Wheel, Bumper Cars, Giant Pendulum, Drop Tower, Log Flume, roller coasters, Haunted House... all the amusement facilities commonly found in other amusement parks can be found in this Eternal Night City amusement park.
If the amusement park were completely empty, it would be fine, but instead it was extremely lively, with all sorts of Tourist: parents with young children, High School Girl playing with their classmates, young couples in the throes of new love... and so on.
Stall selling various snacks, shops selling all kinds of souvenirs, and all sorts of small restaurants—all these facilities that complement the amusement park can be found here. Among them, there are also some Staff dressed Clown, standing on stilts over two meters tall, walking around the amusement park with balloons in their hands, specifically to distribute balloons to the children.
There were also Staff dressed in various costumes, happily taking photos with the children. Overall, the amusement park had a very lively atmosphere, just like a festival, with a constant stream of people, and all the Tourist were happily enjoying the fun that the amusement park brought them.
So far, Bai Zhi hasn't found anything unusual about the amusement park... at least not yet.
Bai Zhi was certain that among these Tourist, there were definitely Player like him who had unwittingly entered this amusement park. However, without understanding the true nature of the amusement park, very few fools would blatantly reveal their identities.
The first and most basic Trait that every qualified Player must possess is vigilance; those who are careless usually don't last long.
Don't be fooled by the fact that this amusement park seems perfectly normal right now; the most ordinary and common things often harbor the most terrifying secrets.
Bathed in the bright sunshine, the amusement park was bustling with people, and Tourist wore happy smiles on their faces...
Everything was normal, but when these normal things were placed under an abnormal premise, they undoubtedly became quite terrifying.
"This uses the Player's original appearance... which means Night Owl isn't actually in this amusement park, or she might be on another ride..."
After washing his face in the restroom, Bai Zhi frowned slightly as he looked at his reflection in the mirror.
So far, he has absolutely no clue about the amusement park he is currently in.
The option to exit the Inner World in the System Interface is grayed out and cannot be selected. Both the Point Store and the Points Ranking are open, but since he has not earned any points so far, he cannot see anything in those two open interfaces.
Aside from that, the system itself did not provide any further prompts.
"If this amusement park is located in a Dungeon within the Inner World, then there should be a designated area within that Dungeon..."
While pondering these thoughts, Bai Zhi strolled aimlessly through the amusement park.
Because of the excellent weather overhead, the amusement park was quite Tourist. Aside from being approached by girls a dozen times because of his appearance, nothing else unexpected or unforeseen happened...
Following the maps posted on the signposts along the way, Bai Zhi walked for about half an hour before arriving at the amusement park's exit. The closer he got to the exit, the fewer people there were, until he was all alone by the time he reached it.
Along the way, he consciously tried to see if he could find any trace of Night Owl in the amusement park from God's Perspective, but unfortunately, he came up empty-handed.
Just like inside the amusement park, there were no Staff at the ticket checkpoints, and the entrances were wide open, with a wide road visible in the distance.
A light mist shrouded the road. Although the sun was shining brightly, the mist showed no sign of dissipating, making it difficult to see anything beyond a short distance.
Looking at the White Mist spreading across the road, Bai Zhi suddenly thought of the layer of White Mist he saw rising outside his window when he woke up that morning... Perhaps this was part of the influence of the Inner World on the Real World?
The streets were deserted, not a single vehicle in sight. The contrast between the bustling atmosphere inside the amusement park and the utter desolation here was stark.
Before Bai Zhi could even decide on his next step, a bus suddenly emerged slowly from the fog and drove onto the road.
Watching the bus slowly pull up to a stop at the amusement park entrance, Bai Zhi thought for a moment, then slipped into a secluded corner to observe from a completely God's Perspective.
Soon, in the scene he observed from God's Perspective, the bus door opened, and dozens of Skeleton, or rather, skulls, stepped out of the bus one after another.
These skeletons, of varying sizes and genders, stiffly lined up and walked into the amusement park after getting off the vehicle.
As they moved toward the amusement park, flesh began to grow on their bodies—internal organs, fascia, blood vessels, muscles, skin... The closer they got to the amusement park, the faster the flesh on these skeletons grew and multiplied.
By the time they stepped into the amusement park, they had transformed into real, flesh-and-blood humans, and clothes had mysteriously appeared on their bodies.
From the moment the bus drove to the entrance of the amusement park, to the moment the Skeleton got off the bus and walked into the park, in less than three minutes, a new batch of Tourist emerged from the amusement park.
Once they were fully inside the amusement park, the humans suddenly became incredibly lively, walking together in groups, chatting and laughing as they entered the park.
After the group of new Tourist entered the amusement park, the bus seemed to have completed some task, and it turned around and drove back the way it came.
"..."
Watching the new batch of Tourist chatting and laughing as they walked into the amusement park, Bai Zhi narrowed his eyes slightly.
