"That's not right. What are you pointing at the floor for? You don't mean to say that Eyeballs is dangerous and I should get rid of it, do you?"
As soon as the words left Yelai's mouth, the Tongue Entity slowly shook its head, seemingly rejecting Yelai's statement. Then, its large, penetrating eyes shifted, and it produced a Sequence Amusement Park Card.
Under Yelai's gaze, it pointed at the Sequence Amusement Park Card.
In that moment, a flash of insight struck Yelai's mind.
He understood its meaning and hesitated before speaking. "What you were pointing at earlier wasn't the ground; it was this Sequence Amusement Park."
This time, the Tongue Entity did not shake its head. Instead, it nodded in agreement.
Seeing this, Yelai formed an astonishing hypothesis. "You mean to say that we need to complete the attractions at the Sequence Amusement Park, get the stamp, and that Eyeballs is related to this Sequence Amusement Park?"
He was taken aback by his own conjecture. Although it seemed far-fetched, seeing the Tongue Entity take out the Amusement Park Card triggered several images in his mind.
There were ticket booths, carousel Stamp windows, and pairs of hands reaching out from shop fronts.
Thinking of those hands and then of those Eyeballs, Yelai's heart began to race.
Though he didn't know how much the Tongue Entity truly understood, he at least realized one thing: to uncover all of this, he first needed to complete the Stamp. Perhaps then he would discover the truth.
"Alright, I'll team up with you," Yelai replied after some thought.
Even though collaborating with an Entity felt like seeking trouble and involved dangers related to the Sequence Amusement Park, he had to complete the Stamp, not just for the sake of the park and the Eyeballs, but also to resolve his own issues.
He hadn't wanted to bring along 【Gaze】 because he feared it might die and become a liability. But teaming up with the Tongue Entity posed no such concerns; if it were to perish during this time, so be it—death would suit him just fine.
At that moment, as the temporary team came together, Yelai asked the Tongue Entity, "How many stamps do you need? Or is it related to the Eyeballs and the Sequence Amusement Park? I suppose you'll need some stamps too. How many?"
According to the information provided by Xu Limin, the more Stamp Count there was, the greater the rewards for exchange. To resolve its own issues, at least ten stamps were required, which meant playing ten amusement rides.
After their previous exchange, Yelai understood better how to communicate with it. When the Tongue Entity pointed at the Sequence Amusement Park Card, Yelai immediately grasped its meaning.
Suddenly, Yelai looked at it, noticing that it was only pointing at the Sequence Amusement Park Card, and his brow furrowed. "Are you saying we need to collect all the stamps?"
The Entity's mouth, filled with sharp teeth, split into a wide grin, its large eyes gleaming with delight as it nodded.
Yelai frowned in place for a moment. The Sequence Amusement Park had numerous rides; collecting all the stamps would mean playing every single ride. The danger level of that was likely akin to a death sentence.
Suddenly, he understood why the Tongue Entity wanted Yelai to decide which ride to play. It wasn't just about showing sincerity; regardless of how they played, they would end up experiencing all the rides.
At the same time, he realized why the Tongue Entity wanted to team up with him and not use teaming up as a reward for Eyeballs. Because whether it was him or it, trying to complete all the rides alone was nothing short of a fantasy.
Yelai pondered for a moment, weighing his options. There was no need to think about how to get Eyeballs from the Tongue Entity or how it might scheme to obtain them from him in return.
What he needed to consider now was starting with at least ten rides or even all of them first.
Afterward, Yelai examined the map closely. "Then let's start with the ones that seem less dangerous."
He pointed to the amusement ride labeled "Bumper Cars" on the map as he spoke.
