The Return of the God Level Assassin [BL] Chapter 292

"IS Brother Ji Yun familiar with the Tower of Edia?" Luo Yan asked when they were a few distance away from the Gatekeeper's cottage.

Shen Ji Yun shook his head. "Not really. But that tower is almost equivalent to a church here in Arcadia." No, maybe it's more accurate to call it a temple? After all, churches in Western culture usually have branches all over the place. But it didn't really have that much of a difference. Both were still a symbol of religion. "It's located at Garden of Eden – one of the largest floating islands in Arcadia." 

Garden of Eden? Luo Yan almost cringed at the name. It's like an in-your-face advertisement, 'look, this is the paradise dedicated to a goddess'. Anyway, the game's questionable naming sense aside, he was quite surprised to hear that the tower was actually located at a floating island. The King of Arcadia's palace was also on a floating island. 

Speaking of floating islands, after Shen Ji Yun took him to his, he became a bit interested and searched on the forum just how much one would cost. It was 30,000 crystal coins per square meter. If one converted that to RMB, it would be almost the same as the market price in the real world. Showing just how expensive it was. 

Now that he thought about it, wasn't the headquarters of team Celestials also located on a floating island? That one was even bigger than Shen Ji Yun's island. That team must really have a lot of funds.

He shook his head and decided to just focus on the topic at hand. "Can anyone go there?"

If you take the King's palace as an example, then it certainly wouldn't be easy. 

Sure enough, Shen Ji Yun confirmed his guess. "No. Only those who took task that was directly issued by the tower could teleport there. But those tasks rarely appeared in the Task Hall. I could search for an alternative way for us to go there. But it would probably take some time."

He could probably simply ask Brother Zhao, but doing so would only be akin to cheating. He never used his identity as the nephew of the creator of Arcadia to get ahead in the game. All the achievements he gained in the game were the result of his hard work. The only time he ever did use it was when he helped Luo Yan with his pavilion. But this time was different. They were both doing a task. So, it's only fair to do it step by step. 

"It's okay. It would also take some time before I reached the right level to enter Alryne City anyway. So, there's no rush," Luo Yan shrugged. 

"I will still look for clues this week. That way, by the time you're able to go to Alryne City, all we have to do is to go to Tropical Land and the headquarters of the Crimson Corps," Shen Ji Yun said. 

Then he and Luo Yan would have more time to spend at the amusement park.

"Is it really okay? Won't it take too much of your time?" Luo Yan asked worriedly. After all, the other was a college student. "There's a National Day next week. We could just do both tasks then."

Shen Ji Yun thought about it. Searching for clues together with his rabbit was definitely much more attractive than doing it alone. So, he didn't hesitate to say, "Okay, let's do that."

That holiday would start on October 1st and would last for seven days. Luo Yan was confident that they could finish both tasks before school resumed. That was not the only thing that the holiday would cover. It would also signal the start of the new season of the Rookie Carnival.

Players who wanted to join should register on the first day of next month. After that, there would be a two-day preliminary match on the 6th and the 7th. That preliminary would determine the 16 players who would fight in a tournament like matches that would be held at the last weekend of October. 

And he still didn't have a powerful weapon in hand. Not only him but Luo Jin as well. He sighed. He wondered if it's alright to ask Yu Jiao if she could make the two of them weapons? Would it be too much to request that she finished it before the preliminary? He sighed once again. It almost felt like he's cramming and doing things at the very last minute.

It's because he didn't expect that he would encounter these two hidden tasks. Who would have thought that his simple wish to bring Shen Ji Yun to see the dragon would lead to them triggering these two tasks? He thought that he still had enough time. This just goes to show that people could never really be prepared enough. 

"Why are you sighing?" Shen Ji Yun's voice broke his reverie. 

Luo Yan raised his head and saw the other's slightly frowning face. He could see worry in those beast-like amethyst eyes. He smiled. "It's nothing. I'm just thinking of the upcoming Rookie Carnival."

Shen Ji Yun was a bit surprised when he heard that. He had almost forgotten that that rookie tournament would soon begin. "You have nothing to worry about. With your strength, you will definitely be the champion of the carnival."

[Yes, Mashter! You'll definitely be the champion!] – Eclipse who had been silent for quite a while also echoed Shen Ji Yun's opinion.

Luo Yan was startled. He expected as much from Eclipse. This little guy simply believe that he could do anything. But he didn't expect that Shen Ji Yun would be the same. He said it with such confidence and assurance as if it was already a foregone conclusion. 

His heart warmed. That warmth spread from that beating heart to the rest of his body. He smiled. He didn't even notice that his smile was brighter than usual. 

"Well then, I shouldn't disappoint my captain." He walked in front of Shen Ji Yun, turned around and faced the handsome qilin. "I will win the Rookie Carnival."
