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

Chapter 397, 1.25, 20: The Rabbit Duke's Crazy Tea Party
A loud 'bang' came from not far from the maze.

Olycia took a few steps back, casually wiping her reddened eyes and wiping away her tears.

Qiao Lin looked up into the distance, and before he could see clearly, he saw a group of rabbit soldiers rushing forward in a swarm.

"Mu Yegui?" Qiao Lin was stunned for a moment, then realized he hadn't mistaken the person.

“Let’s go! Let’s go take a look.” Olycia moved her lips and said softly.

The underground passage leads directly to the center of the maze. The sound was caused by Mu Yegui's forced demolition of the passage after discovering it was blocked.

Ultimately, the fountain in the center of the maze collapsed, splashing water everywhere.

"My clothes are getting dirty." Mu Yegui tugged at the hem of her skirt with both hands, looked down at her skirt, and said softly.

Shui Qi held it, observing the surroundings. She knew at a glance that they were in a huge maze. When she saw the manor from the outside, she thought it was terrifyingly large, but she never expected that there would be a maze like this.

"The rabbit soldiers are coming." Shui Qi said slowly, her narrow blue eyes slightly narrowed.

Mu Yegui took a step forward and drew his short sword from his waist. With a light touch of his toes to the ground, he appeared before the rabbit soldiers in the next second. He dispatched them almost instantly, one soldier at a time, as if slicing cabbages.

The entire battle, from start to finish, lasted only a few seconds.

A gentle breeze rustled the leaves on the hedge, like green waves rippling across the water. Strands of her misty gray hair floated in the air, making her delicate, palm-sized face even more beautiful.

Her cool, silver eyes were calm yet devoid of any light, like a lifeless, exquisitely crafted doll, merely mimicking human actions instinctively. Too beautiful, yet somehow impossible to inspire any desire to get close to.

“I knew it…” Shui Qi stared at Mu Yegui and said knowingly.

Even living in human society, Mu Yegui's aura of being of a different race was too obvious. Even if she was exceptionally beautiful, it was difficult for people to get close to her, or rather, no one wanted to get close to her.

Based on the food chain, one instinctively fears and rejects her, and even if one doesn't say it, one would never get too close to her.

Up until now, he has not seen any information about Mu Yegui having close contact with other people. At first, he thought it was deliberately concealed, but now he thinks that it is not. It is just that Mu Yegui himself is unable to get too close to other people.

Even if she wanted to get close to them, others would unconsciously avoid or stay away from her.

Perhaps she noticed, or perhaps she didn't care, so she didn't care about anyone and didn't know what loneliness was.

Those who do not understand loneliness will never comprehend that despair.

But once you understand, you can no longer bear to be alone.

However, it seems unlikely. Samuros are a solitary race by nature and do not like to gather in groups, while humans are a social race. We cannot judge her by human standards.

From a human perspective, Mu Yegui might seem pitiful, but from her own perspective, she might not care about such a trivial matter at all.

"Is there something on my face?" Mu Yegui tilted his head and looked at Shui Qi, his cool silver eyes quietly watching him as he asked softly.

"No," Shui Qi shook her head and said. Before Mu Yegui could say anything, she saw Olycia slowly walking over from a distance, saying to her with an arrogant expression, "I was wondering who caused such a commotion, so it was you. What heinous thing did you do to be hated by the dungeon to this extent?"

“Olicia?” Mu Yegui turned around, reached up to adjust his hat, and said softly.

“It is indeed me!” Olycia sneered.

Following behind Olycia, Qiao Lin immediately spotted Shui Qi standing not far from Mu Yegui. She subconsciously nodded in greeting. Shui Qi wore a faint smile, making it difficult to discern his true emotions.

Mu Yegui was silent for a few seconds, then asked very directly, "Do you want to see Xie Er?"

Olycia's expression suddenly changed. She remembered what had just happened, and anger surged up. She felt that Mu Yegui was humiliating her.

“What do you want to say?” Olivia said through gritted teeth.

"Aren't you his biological sister? Don't you want to meet and acknowledge each other?" Mu Yegui stared at her intently, her soft, sweet voice gently asking.

Qiao Lin frowned as he looked at Mu Yegui, pondering Mu Yegui's intention in saying such a thing. Was it intentional or just a simple thought that prompted him to ask?

"Xie'er's older sister?" Shui Qi slowly stepped forward, repeating the words with a light laugh, her narrow eyes flashing with an unfathomable light.

"That's what she told me the last time I saw her," Mu Yegui nodded, looking very serious.

"That's enough! How long are you going to humiliate me?!" Olycia roared angrily at Mu Yegui.

Mu Yegui was stunned, not understanding why Olycia was so angry. She had simply repeated what she had said when they met before.

"It seems there are other reasons, or something actually happened in between, but it was just a mistake?" Shui Qi looked at the two of them with a light smile, her tone gentle yet giving off a chilling sense of danger.

"Who are you?" Olivia asked coldly, her face grim.

"Sorry, I forgot to introduce myself. I am Shui Qi, the vice president of the Strategist Association. Please take care of me, young lady." Shui Qi greeted the two of them with a light smile and in an extremely gentlemanly manner, but for some reason, she felt that something was off about what she said.

"The Conquerors' Association?" Jolin asked warily.

The most prominent player-organized group, the Conquerors' Guild, comprises one or two out of every ten players. No one knows when it first appeared; by the time it was discovered, it had already grown into a behemoth.

In previous dungeons, they had encountered players from the Conquerors' Guild more than once. Their quality varied, but the outstanding members were frighteningly good.

The most outstanding among them was probably the seemingly weak and extremely timid blonde girl, who was able to control the situation by killing her companions when things got chaotic, completely disregarding the lives of her own people, and was terrifyingly cold-blooded.

It was because he had heard the rumors and actually witnessed such an association that he found it terrifying.

I never imagined I would one day meet the vice president of this behemoth organization.

At first glance, he just felt that this person's aura was a little strange. He was clearly smiling, but there was a hint of danger in his eyes, like the calm before a storm, which could erupt at any moment.
