Finally, it was time for Landon to leave.

But before leaving, he had already prepared for Lucy, Mother Kim, Lucia, her brothers and some of her people to head towards Carona in a week.

That's right!

They had to go to Santa's wedding, and they had to arrive there several days before the big event to give Penelope her very own Bachelorette party in the palace.

Well, it would be like a sleepover where they would exchange gifts and share embarrassing stories.

Gary's wife Ruby, as well as Mark's wife Ava, will also be joining them as well since they weren't on any missions right now.

As for Trey's wife, Yara, sadly, she was currently battling the temple in Yodan.

So she would have to skip the wedding.

These 3 ladies were the famous Heavenly Trio in the barracks whose reputations were extremely high.

They were one of the first batches of soldiers in Baymard and have been here for a very long time.

So the first time Penelope came to Baymard years back, she underwent training in the Caronian Barracks in Baymard.

So the trio bonded with her and showed her the ropes of things.

And ever since, they had been exchanging letters and keeping in contact with each other.

Additionally, Josh's wife, Grace, was also very close to Penelope too.

The gang of women enjoyed their time while in Baymard and have been talking to one another ever since.

Now, they were bringing Lucia into the group.

So she was going to the wedding.

Plus, she was very much curious about how the other memories looked like.

Likewise, her brother and a selected few of her men would go out as well.

Ger brothers had completed their surgeries and had been in bed for 2 and a half weeks now.

The doctor said that they could go for this trip, but they weren't to do anything physically demanding.

Just walking around, eating and so on.

In short, it was best to assume that they were the elderly.

Of course, the other Zalipnians that were selected to go out were those that only had minor surgeries.

Anyway, Landon arranged for their transportation and whatnot.

The funny thing was that Lucy wanted Lucia and her team wanted to side on the cruise ships to Carona.

But there were too many soldiers going on this mission of escorting them, and they needed Baymardian vehicles to get to the Capital city fast.

So Landon decided to let Lucy, Mother Kim, the rest of the ladies, and the Zalipnians take the cruise ships.

In contrast, the Navy ship will stealthily follow behind them at a pace that doesn't make the travellers on the cruises uncomfortable.

Of course, he would send them on the cruise ship with several guards as well.

And the cruise carrying them will be informed of the Navy tailing them too.

There were a lot of things that he organized before leaving.

.

As for Lucius and his bros whose wives were leaving, of course, they had to stay behind and protect the empire.

Gary the Navy head, Trey the Coast Guard head, Mark the Police Deputy Chief, and Josh who will still focus on the barracks, will stay behind.

Again, with himself and mother Kim gone, Lucius was now the decision-maker in the empire.

So if anyone dared to cause trouble, Lucius had to take care of it.

Another thing that Landon did was finalize a few things with the various industries in the Lower region.

Hahahhahaha.

After coming back from the wedding, it would already be October.

That was the period when all the products will be sent off to the markets.

Presently, the Aquarium was completed, but they were just filling it out with water, sea creatures, coral and so on.

For the Aquarium's position, it was just a little bit further from the zoo.

And, it had a hotel attached to it as well.

In some rooms, one could see the fish through the fish from a tall glass wall.

People could now sleep with the fishes.

Landon loved the Aquarium hotels in many countries back on earth that gave people many fun experiences while viewing sea creatures.

People could cuddle with sea lions, ankis(similar to dolphins), and other friendly creatures in this world.

They could also do an underwater safari trek across the large well decorated fake ruins created for exploration.

People could dive in, do treasure hints and whatnot while many harmless fish swam around them.

.

Again, since this was a hotel, there was also an enormous pool outside.

And there was also a Surf wave machine there too.

When it came to food, they could have dinner or lunch with the fish in the underground restaurant or just eat in their rooms.

Those who paid for the hotels could enjoy SOME of these activities for free, while those who came for a few hours had to pay.

Of course as a hotel, there will also be a spa there too.

The good thing about building the zoo and the aquarium hotel close by was that it brought money to the zoo.

People would undoubtedly go to the zoo after exploring the aquarium hotel and vice versa.

Likewise, Tim and the guys have really outdone themselves with the arcade games currently being mass-produced.

There were many pinball games and claw-grabbing games that would make people scream with joy.

And then there was the darling of all of them, the one he was waiting for, Pac-Man.

Additionally, the vending machines, Money Changing machines, and parking meters will be ready as well.

Now, the police will be able to properly charge people tickets for parking.

Amd people who just want something as simple as a drink for 2 BAYs or so, can just get it in the vending machines rather than lining up for several minutes just for a single item.

Doing so would lessen the traffic in stores and save those who didn't wake up early enough for classes or work.

The money-changing machines will also be placed in many establishments too.

Everything was going according to plans.

.

As for Landon, he was going to settle this Henry Mission as fast as he could before rushing to Carona.

The wedding was in the last week of October on the 27th.

So according to his plans, he should be there on the 26th, barely making it.

Sigh... He could only blame the system for his current predicaments.

With that, Landon and his team were off.

But while they were heading out to fight their own battle, unbeknownst to them, trouble seemed to be heading their way yet agan.

Sigh... Why couldn't these people just let them be?

(Y^Y)
