CHAPTER 1437: CHAPTER 1438 DANTIA CITY

"How on earth did you find such a well-hidden hotel?"

Agunas suspiciously scrutinized Feng Yuan and said, if one didn’t know the background, they would never take this place as a hotel. The sign is well hidden, and it’s not on a main road; it’s at the very end of a small path. People who don’t know about it wouldn’t specifically come here.

Glancing at Agunas, Feng Yuan pouted and said,

"Didn’t you know this hotel is ranked in the top ten online? If it weren’t so expensive, I might not have been able to book it."

"You didn’t use any tricks?"

"I’m not that bored, or let’s just say this hotel isn’t worth that effort from me."

Upon hearing Agunas’s words, Feng Yuan couldn’t help but say, Yang Hongzhi took out his phone, checked some data, and said,

"Indeed, the room rates at Sen’ervi Manor Hotel are quite high for the entire Tiraya, this..."

"You can pay if you want, after all, those spiritual medicines were quite a profit."

Shrugging, Feng Yuan said carelessly, though he didn’t care about the money, he saw no reason to keep persuading others. In truth, collecting such a large amount of spiritual medicines and materials was quite a profit, even if the Divine Land region had not undergone that huge change; it would not have been an easy task.

"Let’s see... How about we pay for our own rooms?"

"It’s up to you, is your money enough?"

Although Feng Yuan covered many room expenses along the way, everyone paid for their meals and souvenirs separately when they split up. Yang Hongzhi should be alright, Feng Yuan was at least sure that he had enough money, but he was uncertain about Qi Chen.

"No problem, I brought quite a bit of money originally, and I still have plenty left."

Glancing at his account balance, Qi Chen said, Long Boduo took out his wallet, looked inside, and said,

"I have enough money here too."

"If it’s not enough, I have some, or you could stay for free by claiming to be a Divine Beast~"

"Don’t lead Long Boduo astray."

Agunas said speechlessly to Feng Yuan, this guy really, what a terrible idea, using the identity of a Divine Beast for that?

"Hehe, it’s just a suggestion. You can’t exchange spiritual medicines and materials for accommodation, can you? In any case, they can only get stuff from the Netherworld, and those don’t fetch much money."

Scratching his head, Feng Yuan said with a bright smile, Agunas glanced at Feng Yuan and said with exasperation,

"I could give it to him, why stoop to that?"

The group chatted as they walked into Sen’ervi Manor Hotel. After vetting Feng Yuan’s booking information at the entrance, they were allowed in. After a little hustle, they finally got through the check-in and prepared to explore Tiraya City after putting away their bags.

"Let’s see, Victory Garden Square sounds good, as for other places, wait until Xiao Ji decides?"

Glancing at the still research-focused Xiao Ji beside him, Feng Yuan said, Tiraya City was expanded around the massive Tiraya City as its core; Victory Garden Square sits on the outskirts, while Lermont Street District is situated within.

Hearing Feng Yuan’s words, Agunas looked at him puzzled and asked,

"Didn’t you say we were going to Horret District for food? Why the shift to Victory Garden Square? And does this name have any connection with Victory Fountain Square at Wilt Bay?"

"Huh? Haven’t you read the information? Across the entire Dantia Region or should I say Drochkar, places preserving historical relics almost always have places named after Victory, commemorating their stable transition through wars."

Surprised, Feng Yuan said to Agunas, this could be considered a feature of the Omeilia Region. After all, no other regions endured as much turmoil as the Omeilia; the Dynasty Era was a time of endless wars, but this also brought some benefits, at least the war technology of the Omeilia Region ranked at the top among all regions.

"Going to Victory Garden Square is just to stroll, it’s not dinner time yet, so no rush to Horret District."

Glancing out the window, Feng Yuan said. It was only about three or four in the afternoon. Their hotel was on the edge of Tiraya City, making it convenient to enter the city, so there was no need to rush over to Horret District for food.

"As for other places to explore? That’s waiting on Xiao Ji’s arrangement~"

Feng Yuan laughed as he patted Xiao Ji on the head. Hearing this, Xiao Ji turned to look at Feng Yuan, chirped, and went on researching meticulously to avoid mishaps this time. Given Tiraya City, as a core city of Dantia, inherently had many attractions, researching thoroughly was time-consuming.

"It says it’s almost done, and will have your itinerary ready by tonight."

Hearing Xiao Ji’s chirp, Agunas translated, Feng Yuan shook his head and said,

"No need for that. Agunas, could you take a look, and if not, get help from Veronia? I’m just trying to enjoy a surprising experience~"

"Well, I can have a look at it for you."

Swishing its tail, Agunas spoke to Xiao Ji. The so-called surprises didn’t hold much appeal for it; knowing the trip’s itinerary didn’t seem problematic.

"Let’s go to Victory Garden Square, Xiao Ji, do you want me to carry you or what?"

Looking at Xiao Ji absorbed in research, Feng Yuan inquired, Xiao Ji glanced at Feng Yuan, shook its head, shifted into Eggshell Chicken form, and hopped onto Big Cat’s head. Seeing this, Feng Yuan chuckled but said nothing; this would do.

Kong Qing placed Pomiti on its head, hissed at Feng Yuan, as Little Ice Cream jumped onto Feng Yuan’s shoulder, blinking at Feng Yuan, who helplessly smiled, saying,

"You, just don’t suddenly get heavy."

Little Ice Cream laughed happily sitting on Feng Yuan’s shoulder, looking around, while Xiao Ji glanced at it but kept busy communicating with Big Cat.

Stepping out of the hotel, Feng Yuan stretched and said to Qi Chen behind him,

"Aren’t you guys checking out Lermont Street District?"

"It’s still quite early; going there now might not have the right atmosphere."

Dou Yanlan smiled gently, linking arms with Qi Chen as a signal to Feng Yuan for eating, Feng Yuan looked at Big Cat and said,

"Tsk! Just because I don’t have snacks now. Too bad I can’t summon White Shadow Wolf, otherwise, we could take the Beast Path."

Glancing at the sunken passages beside the street, Feng Yuan remarked regretfully; he hadn’t expected Tiraya City to have a Beast Path for mid-sized rideable Spirit Beasts. Unfortunately, none of them had suitable Spirit Beasts. Yang Hongzhi’s Xiao Hui was considered large, bordering on extra-large, making it impossible to run in the relatively narrow mid-sized Beast Path.

"Why does the city have this feature?"

Yang Hongzhi asked, looking at Xiao Hei beside him. Beast Paths weren’t common even on highways due to their high maintenance costs compared to regular roads, so they weren’t frequently built.

"It seems like a relic from the past since Tiraya City is an ancient city. However, keeping it preserved to this day is impressive."

Glancing at the nearby city wall, Feng Yuan said, most of Tiraya City lies within an ancient city area. Unlike relatively small castles, Tiraya City is closer to ancient cities in the Divine Land. The vast Tiraya contains almost all major facilities.

"Indeed, I thought Tiraya City was just a large castle, but this is something else."

Yang Hongzhi said with a smile. In Omeilia, castles were more prevalent than cities, and the structure of Tiraya City seemed complex. On maps, it’s roughly divided into four layers, coupled with its vast size, making the term ’castle’ somewhat inappropriate.

"I wonder if we’ll get lost; these routes go up and down, after all."

Feng Yuan said to Xiao Ji perched on Big Cat’s head, leading everyone toward Victory Garden Square.
