When the journey was halfway through, everyone worked together to finish off the luxurious boxed meals Song Yiran had brought.
After eating, the children leaned back in their seats and fell asleep. The seats automatically transformed into small beds one after another, even separating off part of themselves to serve as blankets, gently covering the children.
Song Yiran once again marveled at the wonders of Carenteel’s black technology.
However, seeing how soundly the children were sleeping, he himself began to feel drowsy as well.
The magical vine chair beneath him immediately transformed into a bed, then separated part of its vines to drape over him like a blanket.
Lying amid the soft vines, Song Yiran gradually fell asleep.
When he opened his eyes again, it was Song Yutu who woke him.
“Brother, we’re almost there.”
Song Yiran rubbed his eyes and stood up groggily, then saw the children waiting around him.
Their eyes were clear and bright—it was obvious they had been awake for quite a while already.
A faint pang of guilt pricked at Song Yiran’s conscience. He was a grown adult, yet he had made the children wait for him to wake up. How sinful.
“Brother, you’re awake!”
“Brother, look outside!”
“That’s right, brother, hurry and look—outside is so beautiful!”
Following the children’s urging, Song Yiran looked outside—and was instantly stunned by the sight before him.
Although he had seen pictures of Carenteel before, pictures could never compare to seeing it with his own eyes.
Before him was an enormous planet. Eighty percent of it was pink, fifteen percent blue, and the remaining five percent consisted of scattered specks of green.
The pink came from Carenteel’s specialty—Caren flowers.
As for the blue, those were Carenteel’s unique elven lakes. Crystal-clear blue lakes dotted across the planet, like living veins growing out from the depths of the world itself.
Song Yiran was left speechless by the planet’s beauty. It was too beautiful—just like the legendary elven kingdom!
Not long after, the starship arrived at Carenteel’s space transfer station.
The area was bustling with people, most of them alien tourists here for sightseeing. Among them were also local Carenteel elf guides actively soliciting customers.
The moment Song Yiran’s group stepped onto the floor of the transfer station, they were spotted by an elven guide.
An elf guide greeted them enthusiastically. “Hello! Is this your first time visiting Carenteel? Do you need a guide?”
Song Yiran felt a bit interested in the idea of hiring a guide. With someone leading them, this trip might be quite enjoyable.
After all, he was an outsider, not a native of Carenteel, and he wasn’t very familiar with what attractions and activities the planet had to offer.
If a local guide accompanied them, the trip would probably be much more fun.
The elf guide noticed the interest in Song Yiran’s eyes and immediately pressed the advantage.
She pointed to the silver badge on her shoulder. “This badge is issued by the Carenteel Guides Association. Only those who pass a rigorous guide assessment can receive it.”
“I’m a native elf of Carenteel. My family has lived here for generations, and I know all of Carenteel’s major attractions like the back of my hand.”
“If you let me guide you, I guarantee you’ll have a perfect travel experience!”
Tempted, Song Yiran asked, “How do you calculate your prices? Do you have any travel packages?”
Seeing there was hope, the elf guide immediately projected the travel packages she had designed through her light-brain.
Several different packages appeared in front of Song Yiran, and he examined them carefully.
Many travel packages had hidden pitfalls—he had to look closely to avoid getting scammed.
The elf guide continued her sales pitch from the side. “For customers like you traveling as a family group, I offer four different plans.”
“There are budget-friendly ones, standard ones, and top-tier luxury ones. You can freely choose according to your needs.”
“Our most famous attractions include the Magic Forest, Lightfeather Paradise, the Tree of Elves, Whispering Song Waterfall, and the Colorful Orchard.”
“All of these locations have very interesting activities. In the Magic Forest, you can experience the charm of magical creatures.”
“Many wondrous magical beings live there, such as flower sprites, magic vines, bouncing flowers, and light clouds.”
“In Lightfeather Paradise, there are many magical giant trees. On these trees, you’ll find distinctive homestays and high-end hotels.”
“Yes, all of these lodgings are built on magical giant trees. But don’t worry—we have special equipment that allows guests to fly just like elves.”
“These giant trees grow extremely tall. From your room in the homestay or hotel, you can overlook the entire planet of Carenteel.”
“The Tree of Elves is a ten-thousand-year-old ancient tree with a very long history. It’s said that when the first elf was born, this tree was already standing on Carenteel.”
“Legend has it that wishes made to the Tree of Elves are especially effective. Every year, many tourists come to make wishes beneath it.”
“The flowing water of Whispering Song Waterfall is filled with mysterious magic. When someone sings to the flowing water, the entire waterfall echoes that person’s song.”
“Every year, many tourists come here specifically to sing to the waterfall.”
“And at night, Whispering Song Waterfall resonates with a deep and gentle lullaby.”
“The Colorful Orchard grows many different kinds of fruit—ordinary edible fruit as well as magical fruit infused with magic.”
“The orchard also offers fruit-picking activities. For just 100 credit points, you can enter the orchard to pick fruit, and everything you pick can be taken home.”
Hearing about all these dazzling attractions and activities, Song Yiran felt thoroughly tempted and chose the most luxurious travel package.
When the elf guide saw his choice, she immediately broke into her brightest smile.
“Alright! This package is the Family Luxury Seven-Day Tour. As for the cost—it includes transportation fees, attraction tickets, activity fees, meals, accommodation, and my personal guide fee. All together, it comes to a total of 110,000 credit points.”
Song Yiran couldn’t help but twitch his eyebrow when he heard the price. So expensive!
But thinking about it carefully, there were thirteen of them in total. Even excluding the eggs in the incubator, that was still eleven people.
Calculated that way, the cost per person was about 10,000 credit points.
Still, it was quite pricey. Song Yiran hesitated a little—should he switch to a cheaper package?
Afraid that Song Yiran might feel cheated, the elf guide quickly added, “In the luxury package, I’ll book the top-tier hotels for you, and the food will also be of the highest standard.”
“For every attraction and activity, I can get you VIP tickets, along with complimentary VIP services.”
“The mode of transportation will also be more advanced. I’ll provide you with the most premium travel options.”
“All services—lodging, food, transportation—are top-tier. And top-tier… well, you know, the price will naturally be higher!”
“If you have concerns about the cost, you can choose another suitable plan. Whether it’s a budget option or a luxury one, I’ll still ensure you have a perfect travel experience!”
Resting one hand against his chin, Song Yiran pondered carefully. So that was where the expense came from.
If it included top-tier hotels, premium services, and VIP tickets for activities, then viewed this way, it actually seemed quite worth it.
“Let’s go with the luxury package,” Song Yiran finally decided.
After paying the credit points, the elf guide formally introduced herself to the group.
“Let me officially introduce myself. My name is Sul. I’m a native elf of Carenteel.”
Sul had wheat-colored skin and short hair slightly longer than a buzz cut, with a striking golden color.
She had very prominent pointed ears—just like all elves.
It was said that elven ears were extremely sensitive and could detect very subtle sounds.
Delicate ear ornaments hung from her ear rims. They seemed to be made of plants—slender branches wrapped around the outer edge of her ears and draped down beneath her earlobes.
Different small flowers bloomed on the branches, seemingly enchanted with magic, forever remaining in full bloom.
Among the flowers were also some crystal-clear leaves, dazzling like gemstones.
Song Yiran’s gaze was drawn to Sul’s ear ornaments. He had always liked small accessories, and he himself wore earrings too.
Sensing a business opportunity, Sul immediately took out a large handful of various earrings.
“It seems the guest is quite interested in my ear ornaments. I also have some similar ones here—would you like to take a look?”
A perfectly measured smile appeared on Sul’s face. This guest was generous with his spending; she might be able to make a big profit from this.
“Thank you, I’ll take a look first,” Song Yiran said, seriously browsing through the selection.
The earrings Sul brought out were all exquisitely crafted—some with gemstones, some metal, and some made of plants.
There were ear clips, ear hooks, and earrings.
Song Yiran was dazzled by the choices. All of them looked great—it was really hard to decide.
Xiao Zhong’er picked out a pair of blue sapphire Caren flower earrings. “Song Yiran, I think these suit you really well. You’ll definitely look great wearing them!”
These earrings looked extremely luxurious, carved entirely from a single flawless blue sapphire into the shape of a Caren flower.
Under the sunlight, the sapphire refracted brilliant flashes of light, making it impossible to look away.
“This one suits brother very well too. Brother, do you want to try this pair?” Song Yutu selected a Caren flower earring made of metal.
The main body of the earring was formed from thin metal threads, the material resembling platinum.
The fine threads were tightly woven together, outlining the shape of a Caren flower. It looked exceptionally delicate.
Song Yiran thought both pairs were excellent. Should he just buy them both?
Song Chiyu stretched out a little paw and pointed at another pair of earrings. “Brother, I think that one suits you too!”
Song Yiran followed the direction Song Chiyu was pointing at and looked over. It was a pair of asymmetrical butterfly earrings.
The left side was half of a butterfly’s wing, while the right side was a complete butterfly.
Of course, the butterfly on the earrings wasn’t a real one. Instead, it was pieced together from flower petals of various colors, forming a dazzlingly gorgeous palette.
The rest of the children followed suit, each pointing out the earrings they thought suited Song Yiran best.
“Brother, I think that pair of earrings really suits you!” Song Buli picked out a pair with round pendants.
Hanging beneath the earrings were circular pendants that were a miniature version of Kalenndel.
The pendant was a round gemstone interwoven with pink and blue hues, with a faint glow lingering around it.
“Brother, I think that pair looks great too!”
“Brother, I think that one—”
“That one too—”
