I'll also work hard to conquer the dungeon today.

Chapter 386, 1.25, 9: The Rabbit Duke's Crazy Tea Party
The sudden feeling of falling was as if the whole person was falling downwards, accompanied by a terrifying sense of weightlessness, almost like jumping off a tall building in an instant.

But it landed on the ground very quickly, and before anyone could calm down, the originally dark environment was instantly brightened, revealing its original appearance.

There were eight people around them, making a total of ten including Shui Qi and Mu Yegui.

The ground in front of them was painted with a pattern of a 'house' made up of various shapes, which was about 100 feet long and very wide.

A childish voice called out to them that they had encountered a checkpoint and could only proceed by passing through it.

Welcome to 'Hopscotch Time'! I'm your good friend, Feilu. To leave this space, you must hop step by step to the finish line according to the rules. Once you reach the finish line, you can leave. To increase everyone's enthusiasm, the last person to finish must stay here forever. Please participate enthusiastically!

Mu Ye understood. So that's why some people disappeared and then reappeared, while others didn't come out again—because they hadn't passed the checkpoint, which was exactly what she had imagined.

Did everyone see the numbers arranged in order from closest to furthest in the grid?

Now, let's announce the rules:

[1. Use the 'carrots' you hold to kick forward one, two, or three squares at a time in each round. The 'carrots' must not cross or touch the lines; otherwise, it is considered a mistake.]

[II. If you make a mistake during the jump, you can start jumping from the mistake square in the next round.]

[III. Green numbers represent 'house' squares; do not linger in a 'house' square.]

[4. If you get tired along the way, you can rest for a while in the 'house' compartment.]

5. Roll the dice to determine the game order. The first player throws the carrot into the first square, hops on one foot into the first square, then kicks the carrot into the second square with one foot. Then, they hop on both feet into the second square, then squeeze the carrot between their feet into the third square, and finally hop on one foot into the third square.

Kick the carrot with one foot and then with both feet alternately until the carrot is kicked out of the last square. Jump out of the last square with both feet. This counts as a success and earns 10 points. Then the second place starts again from the first square.

If you make a mistake on a square, you can jump from that square in the next round.

After ten rounds, the player with the highest score is the winner. This continues until the player in last place remains in the game space, at which point everyone else is eliminated.

[However, these are the basic rules. Phil has additional penalties; any mistake will trigger a random penalty, determined by a roulette wheel. Players, be careful.]

The surroundings were silent. Shui Qi stared at the grid in front of her, lost in thought.

Mu Yegui raised his hand and said in a serious tone, "How are points deducted if I fail to answer a question?"

Everyone expected the voice to refuse to answer the question, since they had been rejected so many times they didn't want to remember it anymore. But to everyone's surprise, the childish voice answered.

One point is deducted for each failure, with a maximum of ten failures. Scores are only tallied and calculated after reaching the finish line.

"What about ending the game perfectly with zero failures?" Mu Yegui asked again.

"You have obtained a special die, which can be switched at any time during the Monopoly game," Phil replied again.

With no further questions, the ten people took turns rolling the 20-sided dice, using the same dice-rolling method as Monopoly, except that here the order in which they would play the game was to be determined.

If the numbers are the same, the order is determined by rolling the toss again among those with the same number, while the others remain unchanged.

Thus, Mu Yegui, who rolled the number 20 on his first try, naturally became the first, while Shui Qi rolled the number 16 and became the third.

After deciding the order, Mu Yegui walked to the front of the grid, looked down at the carrot in his hand, and pursed his lips. Carrots again. He'd been seeing carrots ever since entering Luobo Town.

I really hate it.

She looked down at the carrot, her cool, silver eyes darkening slightly.

He reached out and threw the carrot into the first square, then hopped in on one foot. However, when he kicked the carrot with his foot, he accidentally kicked it right onto the line between the second and third squares.

"Ah, it failed." Mu Yegui's mouth was slightly open, her face was expressionless but inexplicably gave people the feeling that she was surprised.

Shui Qi: "..." Pretending! Keep pretending! Don't think he can't see through it; this is intentional. If you're going to act, at least be a little more professional! There's not even a hint of regret for making a mistake; it's just a superficial look of surprise, and the tone is still a statement! How is he supposed to evaluate this?!
Mu Yegui seemed to know what Shui Qi was thinking. He turned to look at him and solemnly denied it, "I didn't. It was really a mistake."

Then she pointed to her eyes and said, "Look into my eyes, I'm not lying."

Shui Qi: "..." Yes, you're not lying, you're just talking nonsense with a straight face.

After Mu Yegui's 'accidental' mistake, a small spinning wheel appeared in front of her and began to spin wildly. Finally, the red pointer landed on 'Gladiator Arena Life and Death Battle'.

Mu Yegui opened her mouth, her face still expressionless, but surprisingly, she seemed somewhat surprised.

"Is it going to be a life-or-death battle right from the start?" Mu Yegui muttered to herself before disappearing again.

Shui Qi's lips twitched slightly. Sometimes she didn't know whether to say Mu Yegui was lucky or incredibly unlucky. Because every time she acted recklessly, she would trigger the most dangerous situation, but if she was unlucky, she would inexplicably have great luck in gambling.

In the end, he attributed everything to Mu Yegui's strength.

Because she is strong enough, she can do whatever she wants and die without anyone being able to harm her, no matter how dangerous the situation.

It's a pity that Mu Ye is the only one, but it's also fortunate that there's only one.

Just as Shui Qi was deep in thought, the player in front of him was tentatively trying to hop on the hopscotch squares, but Mu Ye Gui returned after only a few hops.

and many more!

It doesn't seem to be Mu Yegui.

Those cold, dark gold vertical pupils, like those of a wild beast, swept over the crowd, carrying an inexplicably heavy and dangerous aura that could almost suffocate people.

“Mu Yin…” Shui Qi pursed her lips, then suddenly smiled, looking very kind and friendly, but with a strange sense of incongruity.

"Oh! Shui Qi is here too." Mu Yin proudly raised his head and waved to Shui Qi in greeting.

"Long time no see," Shui Qi greeted with a light smile.

"What are they doing? It looks a bit silly." Mu Yin looked at the group of people lining up, then glanced at the players who were jumping around like hopscotch, and asked.

With the arrival of the domineering CEO Mu Yin, it feels like the silly and hilarious style is about to begin.
