"Relax a little. Jurassic Park has been operating normally for many years. We couldn't possibly be that unlucky."
Seeing Rose's troubled expression, Luke gently patted her shoulder to comfort her.
Luke's certainty that something would go wrong at Jurassic Park came solely from his understanding of this world.
If even the ancient Sand Shark had appeared, why wouldn't the dinosaurs escape as well?
"This gentleman is right. Simon, the new CEO of the International Genetic Technologies Company, has learned from the mistakes of previous presidents. Now, Jurassic Park has the most comprehensive security measures and the most advanced protection systems in history."
"Since 2005, the company's operations have been extremely successful. We even closed the park for the past two weeks to upgrade the equipment, so please don't worry."
At that moment, a capable-looking businesswoman with short, golden, ear-length hair walked over from the side.
She wore a confident, highly infectious smile.
After speaking, Claire extended her hand and introduced herself. "Hello. I'm Claire, the Operations Manager of Jurassic Theme Park."
Rose shook Claire's hand, still half-believing and half-doubting. "Sorry, I'm just a little worried. You have no idea what we just went through at Emerald Bay Beach."
Claire's expression shifted slightly, and she said in surprise, "So you were victims of the Shark Beach incident. May God bless you."
"But rest assured, this is the world of dinosaurs. Even if many more sharks came here, they would only become food."
"If you still have doubts, I suggest visiting the Mosasaurus Exhibit. You'll understand what true peace of mind feels like."
"Trust me, this place will definitely make you scream and give you the most wonderful experience."
Seeing Claire, Luke suddenly realized that Jurassic Park had already evolved into Jurassic World.
More than ten years had passed since John Hammond invested in research and developed the two major dinosaur islands.
Over that time, the theme park had changed hands several times.
The organization currently managing the park was a subsidiary of the International Genetic Technologies Company.
So did that Indominus Rex really happen to be inside the park?
"Mosasaurus! I want to see the Mosasaurus!"
Sharon grabbed Rose's hand excitedly.
Because Rose had protected her so well, Sharon had not witnessed the bloody scene at Shark Beach.
She was still filled with anticipation for the dinosaurs.
As for Emma and Yulinka—
Aside from her initial panic on the beach, Emma had maintained a strange smile throughout the rest of the incident.
Especially when the Sand Shark's blood fell like a torrential downpour, Emma had not even blinked.
Yulinka was also very calm. With Luke around, she feared nothing.
At that moment, Sharon was still clinging to Rose.
Luke nodded with a smile. "Alright, then let's go see the Mosasaurus Exhibit first."
Since this was just a normal outing, Luke, confident in his abilities, naturally had no intention of ruining the children's fun.
Once Luke spoke, no one objected.
Kelly hugged Luke's arm, pressing herself close to him, looking obedient and content to let Luke make the decisions.
Annabeth took the initiative to act as an assistant, watching over and protecting the two younger girls.
Claire looked at Luke in surprise. After realizing the authority he held within the group, her expression became rather strange.
She grew curious about Luke's relationship with the women.
It looked somewhat abnormal.
While Claire was lost in thought, she suddenly noticed three figures not far away, one adult and two children, disembarking onto the island.
"I'm sorry, I have something I need to take care of. You can follow this path. The feeding show for the giant Mosasaurus is about to begin. Trust me, you'll feel incredibly satisfied after watching it."
Claire offered a brief apology before heading toward the dock.
Luke paid her no attention. Claire was just Claire, after all.
Although she was capable, she was already getting older and lacked appeal. She simply was not Luke's type.
Perhaps she was exceptionally talented at corporate management, but in Luke's eyes, she was far inferior to Kelly, who was perfectly suited to being a beautiful ornamental presence.
"Let's go. Don't waste time. We're leaving now."
Luke waved his hand and took the lead forward.
The ticket price for Jurassic Theme Park was anything but cheap: one thousand U.S. dollars per person.
And that was only for a single day.
Even so, if it meant getting up close to prehistoric dinosaurs, no boy would be willing to miss the chance.
They were dinosaurs, after all.
Just seeing the Mosasaurus alone made the ticket price worth it.
Rose protected Sharon the entire way, constantly scanning their surroundings, afraid that some terrifying dinosaur might suddenly burst out from a nearby walkway.
It wasn't until they entered the Mosasaurus Observation Hall, which could accommodate thousands of visitors, that Rose finally understood why Claire had said they would feel satisfied.
Because the Mosasaurus's food was none other than the sharks dealt with yesterday.
A shark, still stained with blood, was being hoisted high into the air by a crane.
Below the observation platform lay a vast expanse of deep, azure-blue water.
When the Mosasaurus suddenly burst from the water, swallowing the great white shark whole in a single, violent bite, the entire hall erupted in astonished gasps.
"My goodness, this Mosasaurus is even bigger than that giant Sand Shark from yesterday."
Kelly exclaimed sincerely. Faced with such a colossal creature, even the swarm of sharks from the day before would have amounted to nothing more than a snack.
Annabeth nodded as well. As a demigod descendant, she had seen her share of fantastical creatures.
But a giant like the Mosasaurus was something she had never encountered before.
Emma clapped enthusiastically, her face flushed with excitement, as though she were exhilarated by the Mosasaurus's performance.
[Discovered Mutated Rampaging Mosasaurus (Still Mutating), gained 100 Anomaly Points. Current Anomaly Points: 100 / 3900]
Luke kept a neutral expression and clapped along with the crowd.
Although he had only caught a brief glimpse, he was certain that this Mosasaurus was not a true prehistoric Mosasaurus at all.
Its body length was at least sixty meters and was still rapidly growing, already far exceeding the size of the original Mosasaurus that appeared in Jurassic World.
During the Cretaceous period, the largest Mosasaurus had only been around twenty meters long.
Compared to this one, it would have been nothing more than a child.
One bite per shark.
Moreover, this Mosasaurus was completely different from the reconstructed Mosasaurus model.
Its skin resembled that of a crocodile, rough and covered in thick scales.
However, no one present noticed this detail.
Or rather, they simply did not understand the Mosasaurus.
After the Mosasaurus finished swallowing the great white shark, the observation platform began to descend.
Everyone could now observe the Mosasaurus submerged in the sea through the thick, specialized glass in front of them.
The Mosasaurus seemed to sense their gazes. It slowly drifted closer to the observation glass, its massive draconic eye sweeping across every person in the hall.
Everyone was swept up in the heated atmosphere, completely unaware that a trace of human-like emotion had flashed through the Mosasaurus's eyes.
"Something feels off." Rose's body tensed instinctively.
"Don't worry. It's normal to feel scared or nervous when a giant beast is staring at you."
"I've heard some people suffer from megalophobia or thalassophobia. You might have symptoms like that."
Luke naturally wrapped an arm around her shoulder, while inwardly he thought that something being off was exactly the point.
If everything felt perfectly normal, that would have been the real sign that something was wrong.
The Mosasaurus in Jurassic World had only been about thirty meters long.
The one before them now was practically a Cthulhu, the change far too extreme.
