Chapter 1187 - Boarding The Hovercraft

As Xia Mao and Jing Yu entered the queue to enter the hovercraft, they noticed that it was rather sleek, something out of those 'Marvellous' movies. There were air turbine engines that stuck out at the side of the wings and despite its size, the craft looked extremely stable when it hovered quietly at the side for the Red Pandas to board the visitors onto the craft.

And when the duo entered the high tech looking hovercraft, they noticed that there were no standard series of seats as they had imagined. (They probably thought it was something similar to a plane.) Instead, it was similar to the restaurant train where the seats and tables were allocated to the sides of the craft. There were even more floors up the hovercraft and they had the very same floor plan according to the Pandamonium App.

When Xia Mao and Jing Yu gave their tickets to the Red Panda attendants, they quickly directed them to the second floor of the hovercraft until a special Red Panda Captain (judging by its hat) came to greet the two Pandawans.

"Greetings! Because of your Pandawan status, we can offer you a limited time premium seating at the basement of the hovercraft for just 59 Yuan per person! Food and drinks are provided as well! Offer stands for only five minutes!" The Red Panda said as it had noted their newly minted status as Pandawans.

"Shouldn't it be the higher the floor, the better?" Xia Mao queried and the Red Panda shook its head.

"The hovercraft viewing had been designed in such a way that the basement had the best possible view." The Red Panda said and they believed Jin would not have programmed the NPC to cheat their money.

So, for a one time viewing experience, they had decided to pay 59 Yuan each to have the premium seats. The Red Panda Captain approved the transaction on the spot and requested the attendants to guide them to the basement where they saw the entire area had already been packed to the brim with the exception of the table at the far northern side of the hovercraft.

"Now I do feel cheated." Xia Mao said, now understanding why no one wanted the corner seat.

"But judging from the price on the Pandamonium App, we are merely paying one quarter of the price on the opening day. As much as you felt cheated, we did have a hefty discount for this place…considering how the place had already been filled up with people." Jing Yu commented even though she felt terribly lucky seeing that the queue for the hovercrafts was already not as intense as the ones at the Hamster Ball area.

As the duo sat at their allocated table, they noticed that there was a guide cum menu right in front of them, specifically for the Animal Kaizer event that they were going to host in half an hour's time.

"Hmm, you can use your own binoculars or long distance cameras for both the event and the animal cultivation zoo tour. If you do not have any, you can request for one…" Xia Mao read out loud for Jing Yu to hear since there was only one guide pamphlet.

"Oh yea…I remember seeing on the app that the premium seating had some exclusive viewing equipment available to them." Jing Yu recalled seeing such a benefit in the App when she purchased the ticket but did not initially understand it until she saw the guide on the table.

"I am more interested in this." Xia Mao pointed at the third page of the guide where there was an array of food listed. While a huge portion of them had no price tag on them, the ones on the fourth page were decorated with numbers that Xia Mao vowed to not even look at the names. Even though he had retired and earned some income from side investments on a regular basis, it does not mean he could splurge his money so freely.

"So, this is something like a viewing bay with a restaurant on board the hovercraft?" Xia Mao said as he quickly returned to the third page and rather ordered something that was on that particular menu.

"Looks like it, and we can have our food while waiting for the hovercraft to leave." Jing Yu was relieved that there was at least a place for them to rest their legs after seeing the number of people rushing into the cultivation zoo.

"Imagine Jin have some Christmas Sales for his Tree Mall and his store instance. This place will riot. Now I understand why there is a need for police to be stationed in his store." Xia Mao said as he placed his food order in the Pandamonium App section and still felt that it was one of the most comprehensive app he had ever used in his life. Even those major communications app were nothing compared to this app.

If anything, he really hoped that the app could have a broader coverage to take on his daily life so that he could fully rely on it despite having a seamless connection between the current apps he was using in conjunction with the Pandamonium App.

"I would honestly swear and even knock some of the cultivators down just to get the item I want. Hahaha!" Jing Yu said and Xia Mao chuckled as well.

"That is assuming there is no Captain Hei to come looking for you. Imagine having Captain Hei right at your back, chasing after you while you hold on to the goods that you snatched from the other customers. And the only point where you are considered safe is at the cashier." Xia Mao imagined but his pal shrugged it off as the food came almost as instantaneously as the service in Restaurant Train.

"Here is your food. I hope you enjoy your breakfast. A little complimentary item from us as a thank you for purchasing the Premium seating." The penguin waiter brought their breakfast items. Xia Mao had Pancakes with sausage and bacon with a plate of fruits while Jing Yu ordered a western breakfast with waffles at the side. For the complimentary item, it was a plate of pudding for each of them and it looked awfully sweet. Upon seeing and smelling the food right in front of them, the Pandawan Duo instantly understood that this restaurant service was an extension of the Restaurant Train Instance.

Thus, they thanked the waiter and started their meal with their stomachs growling for the food to enter. Coincidentally, the loud speaker came on and the announcement for the hovercraft to leave for the Animal Kazier would proceed shortly.
