He also took a look at the attendant's room next to it. The area was only half of the former and there were two bunk beds, but overall, it was of a pretty good standard.
Soon, the waiters arranged by the "amusement park" came to Mellen. At first glance, they all looked smart and clever.
They will be responsible for Mellen's daily life and will be on call until Mellen disembarks.
After cleaning up, two waiters moved directly into the small room, and the other two stayed with him. As for how they rotated, Melen didn't need to worry about it.
Next, Mellen began to wander around the 'playground' in more detail.
There is a large casino that runs through an entire floor in the 'amusement park'. There are various ways to play games, some of which are similar to the cards and dice in Mellen's previous life, and some are local to this world.
However, Mellen has never been interested in gambling and drugs, so he just took a quick look around and left.
Compared to this, he was more interested in a 24-hour buffet restaurant where he could taste delicacies from all over the Kingdom of Crow.
Seeing that the gentleman who was following them was eating heartily, the two waiters looked at each other and were a little surprised.
However, they did not dare to show it, because although the treatment at the "amusement park" was famously good, the rules were also unimaginably harsh.
Even if it is just a simple complaint from a customer, the waiters will face unimaginable horror.
This was also the fundamental reason why the waiter who led the way almost knelt down and begged for mercy just because Melen's tone turned cold.
Seeing that Mellen was still eating and had no intention of stopping, a waiter behind him said, "Sir, if you want to enjoy a more sumptuous meal, I suggest you wait until the evening."
Mellen stopped and looked at him in confusion.
The waiter quickly explained, "As is customary, the captain will host a dinner for all crew members on the first night of the ship's return. Not only will we have rarer ingredients, but we'll also have the Gourmet Association's top chefs cooking on site. It's sure to be a feast for your taste buds."
"The rules for the theme event will be announced near the end of the dinner."
"A chef from the Gourmet Association? A theme event?"
Mellen showed a nostalgic look. The last time he tasted the food of the Gourmet Association was when the Gourmet Association was first established. He still remembered that delicious meal vividly. He wondered if today's meal would bring him some new surprises.
Theme activities are also a new term. I can only say that this "amusement park" has quite a lot of variety.
After a brief inquiry, Melen also knew what the "return voyage" and "theme activities" were.
The "Amusement Park" is a tourist cruise ship that departs from Longkou Port, the northernmost port city of the Kingdom of Crow, and passes through nearly ten coastal cities along the way. It will stay at each station for a period of time and finally arrive at Zhenbei Port. The total sailing time is about one month, and then it will return to Longkou Port from Zhenbei Port along the same route.
Tourists on board can leave the ship at any time, and tickets will be resold when there are vacancies on board.
Therefore, although there are only 200 tourist rooms in the "amusement park", the total number of boat tickets that can be sold after a two-month round trip is often much higher than this number.
Basically similar voyages, 'Playground' can be carried out twice a year.
After all, the crew needs to rest, the ship needs maintenance, and rare ingredients need to be collected, all of which take a lot of time.
Theme activities are a fixed part of the "amusement park". They are large-scale interactive games prepared by the "amusement park" for passengers. The winners will receive exquisite prizes.
Time quickly turned to night, and the "amusement park" was already far away from Zhenbei Port.
Just as the waiter reminded us, the captain of the "Amusement Park", a middle-aged strong man who was well-dressed and had a thick beard that was extremely carefully groomed, invited all tourists to attend the return dinner.
After some fixed words, the captain asked his men to bring up today's special ingredient, an extraordinary octopus that was over five meters in size and had reached the second level of strength.
Melen ate one dish after another. The main course did not take long for him. Soon, a plate was placed in front of him. On it were fist-sized octopus tentacles that were still trembling.
Melen cut a small piece and put it in his mouth, and was immediately amazed.
Normally, the larger the octopus, the worse the taste. Even ordinary people may not be able to chew it, let alone a second-level extraordinary octopus.
But the octopus tentacles in front of you look like sashimi, but in fact they have undergone many special processing steps. It feels like eating a piece of chewy jelly in your mouth, and the flavor of the ingredients themselves is fully stimulated.
It's really good!
As the dinner was about to end, the captain also announced the rules of this theme event...
The theme is "Explore Mysteries". Nineteen puzzles will be hidden in the public area on the ship. After solving any puzzle, you can get a badge. Those who have the badge will be eligible to win the final reward at the end of the voyage.
The final reward was also announced in advance, which was a thumb-sized black pearl.
Melen quietly took a look with the power of fantasy and found that this black pearl could not only slightly enhance the affinity of water-type talents, but also increase the wearer's charm a little. It is definitely a treasure for women who love beauty.
Mellen wasn't interested in this, and it was even less likely that he would ride until the end of the voyage, so he just watched it for fun.
Just as Mellen was enjoying a leisurely journey, Snow White on the other side also took action.
Snow White was not in too much of a hurry along the way. After all, as she was born in a fairy tale kingdom, she was quite curious about the real world.
Because of the existence of extraordinary professionals, wherever she went, people were shocked by the huge size of the seven dwarfs, but they were not unacceptable.
When Snow White was about to arrive at the Hurricane Fortress on the border between the Kingdom of Crow and the Kingdom of Hundred Nights, she had already collected basic information about this place in advance through various means.
Although the Baiye Kingdom has deployed troops on the border, it has no plans for a large-scale attack. It just makes some noise every few days, forcing the Kro Kingdom to waste a large number of troops stationed in Hurricane Fortress.
In the eyes of the Baiye Kingdom, time is naturally on their side. They only need to delay the army of the Kro Kingdom, and the chaos will naturally consume the vitality of the Kro Kingdom bit by bit.
When the time is right, Baiye Kingdom will be able to reap the benefits.
After analyzing and summarizing the collected information, Snow White made the simplest and most effective plan.
Hurricane Fortress, Howling Plains.
The Baiye Kingdom gathered an army of 20,000, including a large number of extraordinary professionals, and prepared to show off their strength as usual. They have done this many times in recent times.
At the beginning, the Kingdom of Kro would send troops to fight the enemy, causing some damage on both sides, but in recent times, the Kingdom of Kro has been too lazy to pay attention and has appeared indifferent to provocations.
Although this approach could preserve the strength of the Kingdom of Kro, it caused the morale of the soldiers on both sides to begin to decline.
The general of Hurricane Fortress naturally noticed this, but the situation within the kingdom did not allow him to make any mistakes.
After the Baiye Kingdom army had been provoking and mocking for a while, they saw that the Hurricane Fortress was still like a turtle and had no response at all, so they were about to withdraw their troops with laughter.
Suddenly, there was a rumbling sound, like a huge rock rolling.
Looking closely, they saw thick smoke rising in the distance, and seven huge figures rushing towards them madly with boundless power.
The general of the Baiye Kingdom who led the army almost thought he was dazzled, but the seven huge figures were too fast and did not give them much time to react before they crashed into the formation of 20,000 elite soldiers.
Seven vs. twenty thousand?
Even if there were extraordinary beings in this world, this comparison would be enough to make those who knew the matter laugh, but...
Not only did the seven huge figures not disappear quickly, but they continued to wreak havoc in the military formation.
Moreover, they specifically targeted those powerful extraordinary people to kill. In just over ten minutes, the 20,000 elite soldiers showed signs of collapse.
The leading general's efforts were ultimately in vain because he was also being targeted.
When the leading general was also torn into two halves by one of the huge figures, the army collapsed directly, and all the soldiers began to flee crying for their parents.
Seven huge figures were chasing them slowly behind them.
On Hurricane Fortress, the general watched this shocking scene. Although he knew that this was definitely not a show, he did not dare to send troops in pursuit because he was unsure of the movements of the seven huge figures. He could only watch the results of the battle slip away.
When the seven dwarfs drove the soldiers of the Baiye Kingdom to their base, a powerful pillar of the kingdom came to meet them with tremendous power, but was easily beaten and seriously injured by the two dwarfs.
Of course, the dwarfs' actions stopped there, and they did not make any further attacks on the headquarters of the Baiye Kingdom.
Even the injuries suffered by the strong man were accurately calculated by Snow White, and it would take about two or three months to recover.
After this attack, even if the Baiye Kingdom is still unwilling to withdraw its troops, it will not be able to take any further action for at least two or three months.
Chapter 141 Looking for clues
In military strategy, clever tricks and schemes can often enable the weak to defeat the strong.
But in the eyes of all military strategists and military experts, there is only one true top-level strategy, which is to crush the opponent into pieces with unrivaled momentum!
Just like what Snow White did, when you have absolute advantage, there is no need for any conspiracy or tricks. Those are only used when the two sides are evenly matched or the strength difference between them is not much.
At this moment, just release the dwarfs to easily defeat the opponent.
The dreamy light in his eyes slowly dissipated, and Melen withdrew his gaze from the distance.
The voyage of the 'amusement park' is still going on, and the theme activities are quite exciting. Many men are trying their best to win the final prizes and please the ladies.
It was a battle of intellect and words.
Cooperation, betrayal, battle of wits, calculation... were performed one after another, and even tourists who had no intention of participating were thrilled to watch it.
This is like a real-life version of a live-action script-killing game, with each character playing his or her own role.
Unfortunately, Melen was destined not to see the end of such a wonderful show.
Because, the 'amusement park' has arrived at his destination... Yuanfan Port.
As the largest port city in the Kingdom of Kro, Yuanfan Port is far more prosperous than any other port city he has encountered before.
The city area alone is more than three times the size of Zhenbei Port.
After returning the room key, Mellen left the "amusement park" with the waiters seeing him off.
Wandering in the bustling streets of Farsail Port, Mellen began to wonder where to start.
The ghost ship incident of the Golden Rowling undoubtedly falls under the jurisdiction of the Special Affairs Bureau, but as far as Mellen knows, there is another organization in Farsail Port that is comparable to the Special Affairs Bureau, and that is the Navigation Bureau.
The Navigation Bureau is an independent special department in Yuanfan Port, mainly responsible for navigation management, and is directly under the jurisdiction of the Kingdom.
What Mellen needs now, in addition to the logbook of the Golden Rowling, is the follow-up investigation results after it became a ghost ship, which can save him most of the effort.
The former of these two documents is in the Navigation Bureau, and the latter is in the Special Affairs Bureau.
Mellen certainly cannot use his own official identity, and even if he does, he probably won’t get the result he wants.
Instead of doing this, it would be better to take direct action from the beginning.
After just a little thought, Mellen put the Special Affairs Bureau, which was more likely to have experts in charge, on the back burner and prepared to go to the Navigation Bureau first to find the information he needed.
After spending half a day collecting some basic information, it was getting dark, so Melen found a hotel to rest for a while.
Late at night, Melen walked out of the hotel leisurely. At this time, he had been given the invisibility ability of a fairy tale character.
This invisibility ability itself is not very outstanding, but after being blessed by the power of fantasy, it has reached a level that ordinary extraordinary professionals cannot see through, which is enough.
He walked slowly and leisurely, and soon he arrived at the door of the Navigation Bureau.
After a brief exploration using the power of fantasy, it was discovered that there was something like an early warning array here.
Mellen smiled slightly and stepped in without hesitation without triggering any alarms.
Looking at the building in front of him, Melen thought for a while and found a staff member on duty. The power of dream invaded his brain, and the latter suddenly seemed to fall asleep.
Mellen knocked on the table lightly, and the person on duty stood up suddenly, but his eyes were still hazy, as if he was sleepwalking.
Mellen asked, "Where is the archives? I need to look up some information."
The officer on duty said shakily, "Sir... the archives room is on the fourth floor. Go up this staircase and it's the first room on the right."
At this time, the staff on duty seemed to be in a dream, so he naturally ignored the unreasonable situations such as he did not know the officer in front of him, and why the officer did not know about the archives room.
After getting the answer, Mellen left directly and walked up the stairs to the fourth floor.
Shortly after Mellen left, the sleepwalking staff on duty came back to his senses as if suddenly awakened from a dream. He looked around in a daze, and the vague remaining memories made him realize that he had just fallen asleep and seemed to have had a strange dream.
Although he had forgotten the specific content of the dream, he seemed to be at work in the dream.
He looked around guiltily, and only breathed a sigh of relief when he found that no one noticed that he had dozed off while on duty.
Mellen quickly arrived at the fourth floor. Although he met some staff on duty and guards hiding in the dark, the latter naturally could not find him.
Entering the archives, Mellen quickly searched for files related to the Golden Rowling.
As expected, there is no record of the ship becoming a ghost ship. Perhaps these materials are stored in the Special Affairs Bureau. Of course, it is also possible that these materials are relatively important and are kept elsewhere by senior officials of the Navigation Bureau.
However, those were not the purpose of Mellen's trip. He came here just to find the navigation chart registered by the Golden Rowling before it set sail.
The Golden Rowling most likely became a ghost ship because it came into contact with the origin of the blood sea. So as long as we find its navigation map, we can roughly locate the location of the origin of the blood sea. Then, combined with the perception of the little red lotus, it will be easier to find the origin of the blood sea.
As for going directly to the sea and following the little red lotus's perception to find the origin of the sea of blood?
That will not work.
When the distance is far, Xiao Honglian can use her induction to lock onto the general direction of the origin of the sea of blood.
However, as the distance gets closer, the aura of the blood sea's origin itself will suppress blood sea creatures like Xiao Honglian, just like a strong magnetic field covering other weak magnetic fields, causing its perception to become confused and deviated, making it difficult to find the real target.
Soon, Mellen found what he wanted.
However, what made him frown was that the Golden Rowling's sailing route was quite long. It was a round-trip route to Golden Port, and for various purposes, it also passed by more than a dozen large and small islands outside Golden Island along the way.
Golden Harbor is located on Golden Island, where lawless pirates, powerful mercenaries, adventure groups yearning for freedom, and daring merchants live...
It is a lawless place that claims to remain forever neutral and crazy.
