What happens next is similar to what happened in Morien Remembrance.

In order to repay Xing's "life-saving grace", Firefly took Xing around "Golden Hour".

They looked at the sculpture of Clockie, took a look at Penacony Grand Theater from a distance, went to the SoulGlad drink-themed Aideen Park, and watched the performance by Memetic Lifeforms and Dreamjoy Troupe.

When Aideen Park was here, Morien said goodbye to them and stayed at the playground in the park.

Although it is really fun to see Firefly always showing vigilance to himself from time to time, the next small activities have nothing to do with Morien.

He knows that Elio will not allow him to enter the deepest part of the Dream Infiltration realm now. And for the time being, he has no way to break the blockade of Silver Wolf.

Sitting in front of a slot machine, Morien put in two tokens and pulled the joystick.

He was operating his own instrument and playing lively music not far away.

This is "Dreamjoy Troupe".

In the dream of Penacony, many items and facilities were affected by Memoria and gained self-awareness. They were domesticated by the Family and became Dreamjoy Troupe to serve guests.

That is what it is now.

Listening to the voice coming from his ears, Morien's Spirituality intuition told him that he seemed to have overlooked something during this period, but he could not remember it.

After comparing it with his own Remembrance, he felt that there was nothing wrong with it.

With his Remembrance power, nothing should be forgotten by him.

And with the mask of Pleasure in hand, it is true that the power of Remembrance can affect him, but it should at least not appear on this planet.

While watching the rapidly beating numbers on the slot machine, he raised his left hand and touched the side of his face.

The three numbers on the slot machine spun rapidly.

In the dream world of Penacony, Dream Tokens are pure virtual currency. Although there are gambling projects such as slot machines, the money gained cannot be exchanged for the universal Credits. It can only be used within Aideen Park, and cannot even be taken to other business districts.

But this is a dreamland, where the cost of making things is extremely low.

This leads to the fact that the slot machines here are purely based on luck, and there is no and no need for even a little bit of fraud.

Rather than the slight chance of fraud, what is more important is to leave a better impression on the wealthy people all over the universe.

Morien watched the three blocks on the slot machine rotating rapidly, raised his hand, and a small golden Butterfly landed on his palm.

He slowly held his hand and held little Butterfly in his palm.

The first number on the slot machine in front of me stopped spinning and made a crisp "ding".

Finally the second and third.

When each number stops rotating, it will make a crisp "ding", and the sound will become louder each time.

Finally, all three numbers stopped at the number "7", causing the slot machine to erupt with a violent and cheerful sound, and fireworks exploded above Morien. In an instant, he attracted the attention of everyone around him.

Three "7"s, the slot machine's biggest jackpot.

The prize is Dreamscape Tokens worth ten thousand Credits.

Although it can only be used in the park, the park is very large and covers many shops.

In addition to various recreational facilities, it can also meet the needs of catering and souvenir shopping to a certain extent, and is more prosperous than some large shopping malls in other places.

I don't know who took a deep breath and let out a small exclamation.

Afterwards, the whole park became lively, with cheers and exclamations coming and going, making Morien's head hurt.

But Morien doesn't mind, he likes this atmosphere.

"What good luck."

Morien chuckled lightly.

He took out a coin from the coin outlet, raised it to his eyes, and tossed it lightly in his hand.

"What good luck."

Another voice sounded from behind Morien.

"Oh?" Morien turned around slightly and saw a glass bottle filled with golden soda water being handed to him.

"Would you like a cup of SoulGlad? This is the most famous drink in this dreamland."

A man who looked like he was shining with gold came up behind Morien at some point and handed a soda bottle that was also golden to Morien.

His voice is very casual, his tone is a little drawn out, and he sounds very easy-going.

"In the formula of SoulGlad Oldest One, there is an ingredient called Dreambloom that is now completely extinct."

"So now, only in the dreamland of Penacony can you taste SoulGlad Oldest One, which is also the most classic taste."

The man said.

Morien raised his head, did not refuse, took the soda that was handed to him, smiled and commented, "Thank you."

"But I have to say, you look like a peacock."

He rarely evaluates a man in terms of beauty, but this is indeed how he feels when someone comes.

It was a man with blond hair and beautiful eyes under sunglasses of several colors.

Wearing a black and green plush jacket on the upper body, and a pair of white trousers on the lower body. Earrings, rings, watches, jewelry, all over the body are decorated with jewels, exuding a feeling of glittering gold.

"Really? That's great. I also like peacocks." Aventurine smiled and nodded, "Just like me, luxury,

Vain, flashy and unreal."

"This is the first time I heard someone commenting on myself like this. It's really interesting." Morien said with a smile.

"I have never been stingy about modesty." Aventurine stretched out his hand and shook it with Morien.

"Let me introduce myself, Aventurine, affiliated with Interastral Peace Corporation Strategic Investment Department."

"I know you." Morien nodded, "My name is Morien, I don't have as fancy a title as you."

After briefly introducing himself, Morien commented on what Aventurine said before.

"But that shouldn't be called self-effacing. You're already deprecating yourself."

Aventurine took back his hand and shrugged with a smile.

"Well, who knows?"

He looked at Morien, smiled and said, "Rather, I'm glad you were just teasing me about my appearance. Originally, I thought you would make fun of my identity as Avgin."

"You have to mention it yourself." Morien spread his hands.

"Of course, I mentioned this myself." Aventurine nodded, "I'm just being self-effacing."

Avgin, a race on the planet Sigonia, is called by the company "a born liar, thief and social butterfly". Now it has been driven to extinction by Interastral Peace Corporation's Market Development Department, and Aventurine is the last Avgin.

Morien shook his head.

"Okay, it's up to you."

"But, I'm not interested in this kind of thing. Well----there will be someone else to talk to you about it."

Looking at Morien's expression, Aventurine nodded.

"I see, well, then I made a mistake in judgment."

"After seeing what you did before, I thought you would like this style."

Morien raised his eyebrows and understood what he was talking about.

He was talking about how he pretended to be the dead Otto to play with Welt.

"You've watched the whole thing. How do you feel?" Morien put his head on the slot machine with his hands and looked at Aventurine with a smile.

Aventurine has also been invited by Tavern. I believe that he has the potential to be a fun person, so he should not be indifferent.

But it is a pity that Aventurine did not show the expression that Morien wanted to see. He just smiled and nodded, "Information is priceless, especially the private information about a Nameless. The information you revealed during the conversation is extremely valuable to me. Thank you for letting me earn a lot of money."

Morien chuckled.

"Really? Then I'll have to ask you for a share."

"Okay," Aventurine took out a black card very generously, "How much do you want?"

"How about one billion? I want to apply for a lifetime room card for the Reverie Hotel." Morien put away a finger.

Aventurine said "Oh" with a somewhat drawn-out tone.

"This much money is enough to start a world war on an edge planet.

"Paying so much money just to get a room card, do you really want to do this?"

"Although, if you can settle on Penacony, the money is actually not expensive, but will Masked Fools really stick to one planet? I don't really believe it."

Morien replied naturally, "I just think it's fun."

"Don't you think? A lifetime room card of Penacony can start a world war on an edge planet. Don't you think it's interesting?"

Aventurine laughed quietly.

"Hmm----Okay, it seems that at least part of my guess about you is correct."

"Which part?" Morien asked with a smile, "Bad taste?"

"Yes." Aventurine nodded, "As expected, we got along very well."

He handed this black card to Morien.

"One billion is impossible, but there are fifty thousand Credits in it. Let's make friends."

Morien smiled and shook his head.

"Forget it, I don't dare to accept Strategic Investment Department's money. You always do things for investment, and you almost never owe money. And all the gifts of fate have already been marked in secret."

Aventurine's eyes lit up.

"All the gifts of fate----, ha, I like this sentence very much. Is it a saying from your hometown?"

"Hmm," Morien nodded, "It comes from a novel from my hometown, "The Beheaded Queen" by Author Stephen."

"That's great, now this sentence belongs to me." Aventurine said with a smile, "Just kidding, I will try to find this book."

"Then I'm afraid you can't find it." Morien looked at Aventurine and said.

"Yes." Aventurine nodded, noncommittal.

Then, he threw an olive branch to Morien.

"So, do you want to consider working under me? I can let you start directly from P30." He took back the card that was originally clamped on his fingertips and stretched out a hand.

"Oh, why is it only P30? In your opinion, my value is so much lower than Little Gray-Hair?" Morien showed a very hurt expression, "I remember that the condition you gave her was P35."

There seems to be only five levels between P30 and P35, but the treatment is completely different.

"Remember?" Aventurine asked in confusion.

He repeated the word, thoughtfully.

"Your choice of words is really interesting."

"I don't remember that I sent an invitation to Miss Stellaron." He rested his chin on his hand.

"Although I did think about inviting her. But my expectation in my heart is actually the same as yours now, and I also want her to start from P30."

As he spoke, he showed a thoughtful expression.

"Well----no no no, let me think about it." He said to himself.

"If her performance in the future is really good, then maybe it is indeed possible for me to raise my psychological expectations for her to P35."

"But no matter how you look at it, this will definitely happen in the future."

"And you said, you remember."

Snap.

Aventurine snapped his fingers crisply.

"Are you from Finality?" He looked at Morien, with beautiful eyes of several colors staring directly into Morien's eyes.

"It seems that I have to raise my expectations for you. Now for you, I am also willing to offer you a basic treatment of P35, and guarantee that you can upgrade to P36 within one system year. How about that?"

"But I don't really want to work for others." Morien said, "Let's wait until I get tired of playing."

Aventurine looked at Morien and said nothing.

After ten seconds, he smiled and nodded.

"Real opportunities will not wait forever, but for those who are truly capable, they will become very patient."

"There seem to be a bit too many people here, why don't we talk somewhere else?" Aventurine asked.

Morien looked around.

Indeed.

There were gradually more people around. Thanks to the propaganda from the waiter not far away, more and more people understood what was happening here and came over.

Aideen Park will not prevent the winning guests from redeeming their prizes. On the contrary, it will publicize it in order to tell everyone:

You see, we can really hit the jackpot here.

But Morien still refused.

He lowered his head and took out all Dreamscape Tokens from the coin outlet.

"You want to invite me to join your game." He bluntly exposed Aventurine's thoughts, "You want me to stand aside."

"However, I think it's better to forget it." Morien shook his head and looked away.

"The guessing game is meaningless when the outcome is known."

"Rather than playing the Werewolf killing mini-game with you, the outcome of which has already been determined, I would rather eat and drink here."

"Instead of finding me, you might as well find a mute to make friends with."

"Looking for a mute to make friends with?" Aventurine repeated, smiling and nodding, "Thank you, I will remember it."

7

After finishing speaking, he sighed and said regretfully.

"But, it's really a pity."

He took out a business card and handed it to Morien.

"If you change your mind, you can come see me at any time."

"Strategic Investment Department's door is always open to those with real talent."

"I'm a bastard," Morien took the business card, "Even if I really join, I will only be a salary thief at best."
