Chapter 1350: Chapter 534: Little Ice Block and the Tentacle Monster (Part 2)
With a “puff, puff, puff” sound, the original three-headed rabbit split into three separate rabbits, each with one head.
“Perfect trio!” said the first rabbit proudly.
“Now we can start the performance!” the second one chimed in.
“Let us tell the story of the Land of Mirrors!” concluded the third.
The three rabbits began somersaulting in mid-air, changing color with each flip.
In the end, they turned into gold, silver, and copper, neatly lining up in a row.
“Ahem, let the show begin!”
The golden rabbit cleared its throat:
“Once upon a time, there were three greedy merchants who wanted to build a perfect shop.”
The silver rabbit continued:
“The first merchant said: ‘I want my customers to be enchanted by my goods as soon as they walk in!'”
The copper rabbit added:
“The second merchant said: ‘I want my customers to never be able to leave once they’ve bought my things!'”
The golden rabbit proceeded:
“The third merchant said: ‘I want my customers to spend all their money here!'”
“So, they each built their own ‘perfect shop’.
The three rabbits said in unison:
“But the problem was, they forgot one thing…”
At this point, the three rabbits began to transform terrifyingly.
Their fur became dull, their eyes turned red, revealing sharp teeth.
In the next moment, they transformed into the form of three hounds.
Despite still being rabbit-sized, their aura became eerie and terrifying.
“I’m Leila!”
The first “hound rabbit” said in a sharp voice:
“I built the ‘Whispering Labyrinth’! Customers who enter are surrounded by sweet voices until they lose themselves in illusions!”
It boasted proudly:
“The most special thing about my shop is hiding the most precious treasure in the most inconspicuous corner! You fools will never find it!”
“I’m Fenrir!”
The second “hound rabbit” roared:
“My ‘Alchemy Playground’ can turn anything into a toy! Making the complex simple, and the dangerous safe!”
It showed a sly smile:
“However, addition is easy, subtraction is tricky! It’s easy to dismantle good things, but reassembling them isn’t simple!”
“I’m Carlos!”
The third “hound rabbit” said coolly:
“In my ‘Inverted Potion Workshop’, all recipes are upside down. The effect is written first, the ingredients last.”
It pushed imaginary glasses up its nose:
“The recipe tells you ‘what to do’, but the real secret lies in ‘how to do it’ and ‘why to do it’! Heh, you’ll never guess!”
After the transformation, the three “hound rabbits” immediately reverted to their adorable Magic Rabbit form, as if the terrifying image just now was an illusion.
“So, what should the customers do now?” continued the golden rabbit.
“It’s simple!” the silver rabbit jumped up:
“Find the ‘real treasure’ in each shop!”
“Then the merchants will be forced to compete fairly with you!”
The copper rabbit added:
“On a dedicated stage, a one-on-one duel!”
The three rabbits said in unison:
“Remember, in the Land of Mirrors, the most important thing has always been ‘seeing through appearances and finding the essence’!”
Aselia pondered in Ron’s arms:
“These puzzles are cleverly designed. Each one targets the core elements of the triple art while incorporating the characteristics of the hounds.”
Nari frowned: “Darling, this sounds dangerous. Those hounds are clearly not good news.”
Ron stared at the distant clock tower:
“Since the rules are clear, we will play by them. But before entering the first level, I need more information.”
He turned to the rabbits:
“Can you tell me more about the details of these levels? Like their specific locations and entry methods?”
The three rabbits exchanged a look, then the golden rabbit pointed in various directions:
“Leila’s Whispering Labyrinth is in the Crystal Forest to the east, the entrance is a singing archway.”
“Fenrir’s Alchemy Playground is on the Rainbow Plains to the south, where you’ll see a giant carousel.”
“Carlos’s Inverted Potion Workshop is in the Gravity Reversal Zone to the north, where everything is upside down.”
The silver rabbit added:
“But be careful, each level has a time limit. If you don’t find the core secret in time, the hounds’ power will fully recover!”
The copper rabbit gave the final reminder:
“Also, although we wish to help, once you enter the level, we cannot follow. That’s a trial for the challengers.”
Ron nodded, taking a deep breath.
The challenge of the Mind Maze was about to begin.
This game with the Time Hounds would determine whether they could safely escape this false “Land of Mirrors”.
“Then.” He hugged Aselia tightly, casting a determined look at Nari:
“Where shall we start?”
………
After some discussion, the three decided to follow the introduction sequence and chose the Crystal Forest to the east as their first target.
After bidding farewell to the three Magic Rabbits, they slowly proceeded along a path paved with glowing crystals.
Peculiar plants grew on either side of the path.
The leaves of those trees were like miniature mirrors, producing a crisp metallic clanging sound as they swayed in the wind.
“These trees…”
Aselia softly analyzed from Ron’s arms:
“Their structure is unique; each leaf mirror is collecting and reflecting some kind of information.”
Nari tightly gripped the cloak with six hands, warily watching the surroundings:
