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

Chapter 401, 1.25, 24: The Rabbit Duke's Crazy Tea Party
"According to the first task, as long as you have the box when the game time ends, you really have the Crown Prince item. So it doesn't matter who has it during the middle of the game, as long as it's in your hands when the game ends."

Mu Yegui walked through the flower-filled garden, pondering the rules.

The second task's 'antidote' is used to eliminate spider eggs and, incidentally, remove the negative effects associated with them. Rule number nine clearly explains this.

The third quest, "Living," is present in most dungeons, since only living players can possess the Crown Prince item.

The fourth rule should refer to Sher and the others; if they are found, it means the dungeon raid has failed.

It's said to have four tasks, but in reality, you only need to complete the first and second. The first task is to become the crown prince, which is also the most important task in completing this instance, while the second task is to survive.

If the second rule is not fulfilled, as stated in the ninth rule, the spider eggs inside the body will hatch, and the puppeteer will either become a puppeteer's puppet or be killed when the spider bursts out of the body. In either case, the hatching of the spider eggs will inevitably involve unbearable pain.

Although these are useless to Mu Yegui—the spider eggs were already consumed after she drank them, so she doesn't need to drink the 'antidote'—she might as well go find the 'antidote' while she's at it, in order to complete the dungeon walkthrough.

"The thought of drinking spider eggs makes me feel utterly disgusted," it muttered.

"Wasn't it me who was drinking it?" Mu Yegui said.

"Watching others drink it makes me feel a little nauseous," it added again.

"The white spider in Qiong's hand looks a bit weak, probably because it laid too many eggs," Mu Yegui said thoughtfully as he walked.

"What do you plan to do? Based on what I know about Meas, once the dungeon ends, he will completely disappear, making him impossible to find. If you want to see him face to face, you can only do so during the dungeon, but Meas is still hiding, as if he's doing it on purpose."

Its voice was soft, tinged with guilt; it felt that perhaps the person had noticed it and was deliberately hiding. On the other hand, it also felt that Mayas simply didn't want to see anyone.

If it's the former, it's actually very happy, which means that Mayas still remembers it. But if it's the latter, it's very worried about Mayas, wondering if his current appearance has caused him a great shock.

Mu Yegui was silent for a moment, then said softly, "Then let's go find Meas. How much longer can you hold on?"

"If you want to find Meas, then you'll have to give up on the dungeon." It whispered.

"I don't lack royal items, and I promised you I would let you meet with Meas." Although he could meet with Sher and the others after the dungeon ended, it didn't mean he would definitely see Meas, and even if he could see Meas, he might not be able to hold out until then.

“Two hours…” it said softly.

In other words, once 3 o'clock arrives, not only will the instance end, but it will also die immediately.

"Then we should go find Meyas even more."

The mission in this instance is called 'Hide and Seek,' which means they have to find the hidden Meyas or the Crown Prince's items.

The first rule is very clear: if a gift box hears a sound exceeding 10 decibels, it will immediately teleport to another location. However, if the gift box is in the process of being packed up, it will not move randomly and can be fought over by players.

Is it really that simple?

"I remember the rabbit holding up a box and saying it was a prop for the Crown Prince, but we never saw any detailed information about the prop. It just held it up and said it was a prop for the Crown Prince, so is it really a prop for the Crown Prince?" Mu Yegui asked, puzzled.

This is one point of contention, not to mention that the words "Crown Prince's Props" were never mentioned in the rules. According to previous rules, if it were Crown Prince's Props, the rules would definitely state that it was Crown Prince's Props, but this time it was referred to as "gift box" from beginning to end, without even the word "props".

Does this mean it has other hidden meanings, such as...?

The gift box contains the Duke Rabbit.

Because the opening line goes like this: 'We meet again, let's play hide-and-seek this time.'

Let's play hide-and-seek together.

You only need to find something if it's hidden...

So let's play hide-and-seek!

Let's find Duke Rabbit together!

It's impossible for Duke Rabbit to be absent from Duke Rabbit's crazy tea party.

The fourth task contains the word 'disturbing', and the first rule states that the box will teleport away if the sound exceeds 10 decibels. Once you connect the gift box with Duke Rabbit, you will find that there are actually many clues to follow.

Moreover, the rabbit said that the box was called "Duke Rabbit's Toy Chest," which is an interesting name, but it also indicates that it is just a toy. Since it is a toy, it is not impossible that it is a fake royal prop, right?
"You mean, Meyas is in that box?" it asked, puzzled. "But why would he hide in there? It doesn't make sense."

"In any case, we don't know where Meyas is. Since the box is a possibility, perhaps we can look for the box first, and of course, look for the room as well. Maybe my guess is wrong."

Although Mu Yegui felt that there was a 99% chance that Meyas was in that box, there was still a 1% chance that he ran away the moment the box was opened.

Mu Yegui's speculation might seem perplexing and unbelievable, making it seem impossible. But sometimes, the most improbable things are the most likely to be the truth.

Nothing is impossible in this world; we must think in various ways, including ways that distort the truth.

You might think that Mu Yegui's belief that Mayas was in the box is illogical, but reason itself is illogical; it is only by using some basis as a reference that one can make a perfectly correct judgment.

However, once there is no reference point, there is no right or wrong; everything depends entirely on one's ideas.

If you say he is there, then perhaps he really is there, even if you can't logically determine why.

After all, you didn't see if he ran inside, nor did you see any details about the box. How can you be so sure that it is definitely the Crown Prince's prop and that Meyas is definitely not inside?
It's a mysterious black box full of unknowns; anything can happen.

There's a saying that you call a fallacy, but how do you know it's a fallacy? It's just based on your subjective judgment.

No one can truly judge whether something is true or false, because it does not have any real logic; everything is merely a judgment made by the brain based on subjective consciousness.

Whether it's true or false, it's just talk.

Here I am again. Are you all confused?
