"Xu Lang, when are you going to Fantasy Wonder Night?" Wang Yazhi looked at Xu Lang and asked.

The player slots for Fantasy Wonder Night had already been decided.

They were Xu Lang, Xu Ruyan, and Tong Qi.

Xu Ruyan was the most experienced, Tong Qi had the strongest specialized ability against ghosts and monsters, and Xu Lang had the strongest individual combat capability.

Seeing Wang Yazhi's eager and excited expression, Xu Lang said, "Go call Ruyan and the others over... Next time there's an opportunity like this, we'll take you along."

Although Wang Yazhi's outward appearance was very scholarly and refined, she actually had a daring and adventurous nature. After practicing swordsmanship, this trait had become even more pronounced, with a sharp, vibrant energy radiating from her.

"Okay!" Wang Yazhi nodded and turned to go find them.

Xu Ruyan and the others were cultivating at the moment and might not necessarily check their private messages.

A short while later, Xu Ruyan, Zhen Lu, Sherry, and others had all gathered.

The entire Dorm 200 was present.

However, only three of them were going on the expedition.

"You must bring back good stuff!" Cao Yaxuan said reluctantly.

Tong Qi smiled and said, "Don't worry, we definitely won't come back empty-handed."

"We'll be back soon," Xu Lang comforted.

"Mm!" Cao Yaxuan stepped forward and hugged Xu Lang.

Xu Lang also proactively hugged Sherry and the others, spreading the affection evenly.

Afterwards, he took out the Fantasy Wonder Night invitation letter.

[Please input the names of the invitees—]

[This Fantasy Wonder Night performance lasts six hours. If encountering danger in reality, you will be forcibly ejected from the viewing. Please ensure you are in a safe environment.]

[During the viewing, the chat system, backpack, and storage room will be disabled.]

[Items consumed during Fantasy Wonder Night will be deducted according to actual usage. Apart from the safety of the viewers' lives, the dormitory building is not responsible for any other financial management.]

[During the viewing process, players can exit at any time and take away any gains from Fantasy Wonder Night.]

"The backpack is disabled!"

Xu Lang's brow furrowed slightly as he recounted the game prompt's content.

After a brief discussion, everyone began sorting their items.

The Blood Pelican Demon Blade didn't have a scabbard, so Xu Lang wrapped it in cloth. Xu Ruyan and Tong Qi brought disposable powerful items and medicines.

After about ten minutes of preparation, Xu Lang began inputting the names. 𝙛𝒓𝒆𝙚𝒘𝒆𝓫𝙣𝓸𝙫𝓮𝒍.𝒄𝒐𝓶

[Please confirm the viewing list: Xu Lang, Xu Ruyan, Tong Qi]

[Yes/No to start viewing immediately?]

...

Ding-dong~

The midnight bell tolled.

The sound of camel bells, lion roars, and bustling noise instantly came alive.

The circus tent tore open under an orange-yellow full moon. Two Caucasian girls in long dresses pulled back the curtain, welcoming the queuing audience outside.

"Hahaha, the Mary sisters, so beautiful!"

"Miss Mary, you are the most beautiful flower of the Fantasy Circus. I want to propose to you. I think the Ringmaster would agree!"

"You two Marys, quickly tell us what today's performance program includes!"

The audience wore attire similar to the Western early modern era, with hints of the steam era.

Beside a horse-drawn carriage, Xu Lang silently observed the scene.

Tong Qi and Xu Ruyan were on his left and right, and they had automatically changed into clothing fitting for this era. However, compared to the audience's clothes, the attire of Xu Lang's trio was more refined.

Just then, an old gentleman wearing a bowler hat and a striped costume walked over.

"Hello, my name is Wesright. You must be Mr. Xu Lang?" The old gentleman took off his hat and bowed, his attitude modest and polite.

[Name: Wesright]

[Type: ???]

[Level: ???]

[Skills: ???]

[Introduction: Investor of the Fantasy Circus]

"Yes," Xu Lang nodded.

Xu Ruyan sized up Wesright, her attitude composed.

Tong Qi, however, was a little nervous.

Although this round of the game carried no risk of death, the opportunity was precious after all, and she was afraid of wasting a ticket.

That row upon row of question marks next to Wesright felt quite terrifying.

"Xuefu has some temporary matters, so he asked me to receive you. Now, let me take you to the VIP room," Wesright said with a smile.

"What is the Ringmaster doing?" Xu Lang raised an eyebrow.

"Xuefu is always busy. I don't know what he's busy with either, haha," Wesright chuckled evasively.

The first piece of information was confirmed: the Ringmaster mentioned in the Jester King's introduction was called Xuefu.

Xu Lang nodded and said, "Then we'll trouble you."

"A small matter," Wesright smiled.

Wesright didn't seem to be a talkative person. He hardly spoke along the way, quietly leading Xu Lang's trio into the circus and to a VIP room located above the audience seating.

This position offered a direct view of the stage and allowed them to see the audience entering and exiting below.

The only drawback was the lack of one-way mirrors. Some audience members in the front rows could turn around and see the situation inside the VIP room, so it wasn't very private.

After the three of them took their seats, Wesright looked around and complained, "Xuefu's hospitality for distinguished guests is too lacking. I'll go find you some black tea."

"Please, go ahead," Xu Lang smiled.

—How is he?

After Wesright left, Xu Lang immediately took out a slip of paper and wrote a line.

—Neat, particular, non-aggressive.

Xu Ruyan quickly wrote these words in response, concise and clear.

She had a profiling skill used for daily life and capturing an enemy's psychology. This kind of skill was quite practical in this environment.

Xu Lang pondered.

Non-aggressive? That seemed impossible. It could only mean his attack conditions hadn't been triggered, so he wasn't showing aggression.

Fantasy Wonder Night tickets were precious. Even he didn't want to waste one.

The viewing only lasted six hours. He needed to act quickly, couldn't be rash or reckless, but also couldn't waste time doing nothing.

—What's his consumption attitude like?

Xu Lang wrote and asked.

Wesright was an investor in Fantasy Wonder Night, so he should be quite interested in money.

—Strong desire to consume.

Xu Ruyan wrote back.

Suddenly, Xu Lang's eyebrows lifted. He swiftly wrote the words "break the ice" and then put away the pen and paper.

Three seconds later, Wesright opened the door and entered.

"Black tea is here~" Wesright carried a tea tray with three cups of steaming hot black tea.

Just as the old gentleman placed the tea tray down, his withered hand was grabbed by someone.

Instantly, Wesright's expression turned strange as he looked up and met Xu Lang's gaze.

"Mr. Wesright, why only three cups of tea? Don't you plan to stay?" Xu Lang asked with a frown.

"That's right, I have some matters to attend to later," Wesright nodded.

"In this Fantasy Circus, what could be more important than watching the performance?" Xu Lang said one sentence, then immediately added, "Moreover, I have some ideas about making money I'd like to discuss with you."

Wesright immediately laughed, looking at Xu Lang with the gaze one might give a young person, and said:

"Making money? No one knows more about making money than I do. If you want to seek my advice, you can just say so."

"I don't mind having another junior enter the world of business."

"Although it might be a bit early for you."

Xu Ruyan cleared her throat softly and spoke up, "Mr. Wesright, you might not know this, but Mr. Xu Lang's nickname is Capital Immortal."

"Capital Immortal? What's that?"

"A good thing that can squeeze oil out of a rock!" Xu Lang firmly gripped Wesright's hand, his sense of conviction incredibly strong.
