The rest of the crew as well as Charlotte and the others all looked around the place as they heard the host's words. Some of these plants do not grow in Africa? What does that mean?
"How would you know something like that?" Adia asked the host.
"Ah, Princess," the host quickly bowed as Adia approached him, "Please, let me introduce myself. I am called Eli. Part-time host, part-time historian… and also a Silver-ranked Explorer."
"You… were a Silver-ranked Explorer?" It was evident on Adia's face that she was pleasantly surprised. Of course, the camera crew that would come with them to the Darkzone wouldn't be a normal team, it made sense, she thought.
"Does that mean we… were teleported to another place?" Adia followed, "Maybe Va-an was right, and that we're inside a Portal?"
"Afraid not, Princess," Eli then grabbed something from his pocket and presented it to Adia, "My map says that we're still in the country."
