The first customer of the amusement park was not a mortal, but a God .

βIt looks pretty good,β Ville said . Ville went to the dessert shop and took a sweet as if he was a tourist here, and then went to the drink shop and took a fruit wine . He drank the wine while eating the dessert, and praised . βVery original! Itβs something I havenβt seen!β
Sui Xiong floated beside and toured with him . When he listened to his praise, he could not help but smile . βJust call me βOscar with originality!ββ He said this, and also raised his head high, seeming mighty . However, he forgot one thing: the jellyfishβs body was almost a semicircle . Regardless of how he straightened his body, there was no difference .
βThis barbecue is also good . β After a while, they came to a barbecue stall . Ville ate two sticks of meat with interest and was amazed . βAlthough the craft is even worse than the chefβs, this novelty is unparalleled!β
As a member of the country of gastronomy, Sui Xiong felt proud, and knew about culinary skills . With the help of holy power, the sauces that were secretly inherited by various chefs on the earth were reproduced here, and various kinds of flavored foods naturally came into being .
All the food in this playground were all in the style of the Earth . From the glasses of water on the roadside stalls to the signature dishes in the restaurants; this didnβt exist as a style of this world .
Not only that, but the various facilities of the amusement park were also entirely in the style of the Earth; every little piece carefully crafted by Sui . Although the power system was very different, both the appearance and the experience here were not different from those on the Earth .
If there was any difference, it was the workers in the playground . There might be giants, half-orcs, elves, and dwarves in a playground on Earth; but they couldnβt be real .
However, in this amusement park, the giant gatekeepers, the half-orc patrollers, the elven and half-elven servants, the dwarf porters, and the dwarf chefs in several stores, were all real . Even the dragon that was lazily lying in the corner, spewing fire to the sky from time to time was real . Oh, noβthis was fake .
βIsnβt there a problem with putting a big dragon in the playground?β said Ville, pointing to the dragon, which was lying next to the rocky mountain, pretending to sleep .
βThere should be no problem, itβs not a real dragon . β Sui Xiong rushed over and shouted at the red dragon which was half asleep, βFafnir, are you okay?β
The red dragon, like a small hill, looked up at him with a pair of peachy eyes full of charm . It shook its head . βNot very good . This dress is a bit uncomfortable; I feel a little sorry to have signed a contract valid for a decade with you now . β

βAnyway, if youβre idle, youβre still idle . You can earn money by lying here and doing nothing . Whatβs wrong with you?β Sui Xiong said with a smile . βAnd itβs not like youβre wearing it all day . Take it off when you donβt work . β
The dragon lowered its head drowsily and buried its head in its paws .
βIf I had known it was boring, I wouldnβt have comeβ¦β His muffled voice came out from the paws . βThe damn bard said that Your Majesty said it would be the worldβs most interesting playground, and attract the worldβs most wealthy people; accompanied by, of course, the best hotels, casinos, and brothels in the world . And I, finally, was deceived to work here! As a believer in the God of Happiness, he is happy; but he cheated me!β
After a glimpse, Ville responded and diligently investigated by using holy power, and found it interesting .
It turned out that this man wearing a dragon-skin coat, posing as a dragon, was a legendary creature named Fafnir . It had a nickname called βThe Big Free Strange Bird . β Although it was a huge strange bird, it was ardent to appear as a human being, and go to all the busy cities to gamble and visit prostitutes . Every time it did that, it dropped a box of gold coins, and then went to eat, drink and play for a few days . The most famous story was that it ran to a famous brothel to βsolely have funβ more than once . It ate and drank and had sex for days and nights; the prostitutes could not get out of bed . After that, it laughed and changed into its original appearance, and left flying .
As a famous βbig playerβ in the world, it had suffered a great loss this time .
The bard was a high priest of Ville, who had learned from Ville that His Majesty the Void Mask was building the worldβs premier playground in the Ashes Woods . So once he had chatted with Fafnir in the pub, he spoke of this .
At that time, this person and this bird were drunk . Whatever they said was bragging . In short, Fafnir was interested in this amusement park .
It had always boasted himself as the personβor rather, birdβthat could play the most joyfully in the entire continent . Hearing that there was such a good place, how could he not try it? So regardless of the hardships, he flew to the Ashes Woods for thousands of miles, wanting to see if the playground was really so interesting .
Unfortunately, when it came here, the playground was not completed . The so-called βbest hotel, best casino, best brothel,β certainly did not exist .
Fafnir, who felt cheated, was full of anger turned from enthusiasm, and wanted to make trouble . However, it was suppressed by the iron fist of Sui Xiong, and after a warm and friendly negotiation, he eventually became an employee of the playground . The usual job was to put on a red dragon coat that was specially made by Sui to disguise the wearer as a fierce red dragon . It could be touched and looked at by tourists, and from time to time, it was also responsible for roaring or spitting fire to create an atmosphere .

βYou fake it too well!β Ville could not help but admire . βYou let a legendary creature pretend to be a red dragon, and that dragon skin is so realistic! I was fooled from the beginning!β
Sui Xiong laughed and was very proud .
The ability that could fool the gods was supernatural . He wondered, if he could go back to Earth, maybe he could make a living through this ability of falsification; for example, he could sell knock-off phones and pirated CDs .
No; as a literary person, he could learn from Mr . Zhang Daqian, who at his young age was a master of falsification, specifically forging various kinds of ancient paintings . He also liked to put his name in the paintings to prove it .
But no one had thought that the value of these paintings that he falsified were inferior to the authentic works . Even the counterfeit goods were better than genuine ones .
Sui Xiong believed that his ability to make fakes could be estimated to reach this level .
βTo tell the truth, you can build such a magnificent playground and itβs all right . You can find so many weird recipes and itβs not very strange . What really surprises me is that you can actually gather so many wonderful people . β After some more excursion, Ville sat on the viewing platform of the amusement parkβs tallest restaurant, looking around at the surrounding scenery . He smiled and said, βThe most amazing thing is that these people with different personalities, and even unruly legendary creatures, are willing to listen to you and work honestly here . β
At the gate of the amusement park, Gerrard held a giant axe as a guard and showed a simple smile to the children passing by . In the office of the management office, Snowflake was yelling at a stupid half-orc . He might have done something that made her angry . In the library, Wall was holding a broom and was slowly sweeping the floor . He looked as calm as an ancient well . Beside the rocky mountain of fire, Fafnir, who was wearing a dragon-skin coat, was still murmuring and complaining about his unluckiness .
Continuing with his holy mind, he soon saw Steele at the entrance to the underground maze, who advised curious visitors to leave; then he saw Acaine, who was sitting in a medical room and compiling a mushroom guide .
βItβs nothing; just an ordinary playground,β Sui Xiong said .
βThis playground is not ordinary at all!β Ville smiled meaningfully .

When he left, he promised Sui that he would ask his faithful bards to spread stories about the playground, and help attract tourists .
However, after more than a month, there were still few tourists at the amusement park .
βWhy would that be?β Sui looked at the deficit report that Snowflake handed over to him and was full of wonder . βIsnβt this playground fun?β
βItβs fun,β Snowflake said . βBut itβs too far away . β
βFar? Is there a problem? As a Chinese saying goes, being far away isnβt an obstacle to selling good wine! The Confederation of Mifata was also far, but there were many people going there to learn magic!β
βLearning magic is necessary; but playing in a playground is not . β
Sui Xiong was speechless, sighed, and looked at the dazzling loss, muttering, βAll the supplies are self-produced; why should we lose money? Even if only one person came, there would be a net profit . β
βDonβt you think that youβre looking for such a large group of people, and you donβt need to pay people?β Snowflake said coldly . βEven your devout believers are not obliged to work for you for free!β
Sui Xiong was speechless again . He stared at the wooden board that stated all kinds of expenses . He stared at the word βloss,β specially marked by Snowflake . The fierce eyes were like two sharp swords, which carved two deep grooves on the wooden board .
However, this did not change the problem; the loss was still a loss .
βWe need to find a way to attract more tourists!β he said .
But what should I do?
After some thought, he decided to build a gate of transmission in the capitals of all the major countries that headed to the amusement park .
βHey! Thatβs too costly!β Even as a calm giant dragon, Snowflake was startled by his crazy idea . βDo you know how much precious stuff would be needed to build a fixed gate of transmission?β
βNo matter . Iβll pay it!β
βBut it also costs money to transmit them here!β
He laughed three times and said, βYou donβt understand! My playground has always been targeted at high-end customers . If they can afford to explore the maze in the underground city, how could they care about the transmission fee?
βI would like to add even more high-end projects, such as arranging a group of moon elf waiters for those wealthy bigwigs . The girls will wear high-split cheongsams, and wear rabbit ears on their heads . They should bow to anyone they meet; the ground should also be covered with a red carpet, from the gate of transmission to the entrance to the underground city; there should be renovation along the way to improve its levelingβ¦ guess now, how much money do I have to charge them?β
βOne hundred gold coins per team?β
βThree hundred gold coins, per person!β
βThree hundred gold coins per personβ¦ thatβs too much!β
βThatβs what you donβt understand! Those who are willing to spend a lot of money on the transmission, of course, are willing to spend a lot of money on playing! Look at the one whoβs lying on the floor and pretends to be a dragon; he came with a box of gold coins . β
For how dubious Snowflake was about it, the angry and irrational Sui Xiong completely ignored her . He waved his tentacles and made this crazy decision .
