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

Chapter 409, 1.25, 32: The Rabbit Duke's Crazy Tea Party
“I initially thought you were in the box.” Mu Yegui casually put the seed away, glanced at the still-dazed Mayas, and said slowly.

"To say I'm here is to say I'm not here. I used a substitution item. When the box is opened, I will immediately appear, creating the illusion that I'm inside the box. But if it's not opened, I'm not here," Mayas shook his head and said in a low voice.

"There are still more than ten minutes left. Where is the gift box?" Mu Yegui squatted down to be at eye level with Meyas and asked.

"The gift box is in the lobby now. I can only tell you this once as payment for your help to me and Ying. If you miss this opportunity, I won't say anything more." Mayas turned his back and stopped looking at Mu Yegui.

After all, he hadn't forgotten that he was in charge of this instance, and until the instance ended, they were in a state of opposition.

"That's enough." Mu Yegui turned and ran towards the gate.

"Why would you give up the props so easily?" Mu Yin couldn't understand. He really couldn't understand why Mu Yegui would do that. She could have gotten them with her own efforts, so why did she choose not to?
"Does Xiao Yin know what the Holy Grail is?" Mu Yegui asked as he ran.

"If I knew, would I still be asking you?" Mu Yin sneered.

"According to the history books of this world, the water that the Holy Grail has been filled with has the effects of rejuvenating, bringing the dead back to life, and even granting immortality, but no one knows whether this is true or not."

However, the Holy Grail does have the magical effect of healing others, but it is ineffective on its owner. So why should I become the owner of the Holy Grail?

Furthermore, the Holy Grail's covenant states that only those of pure and noble thought, speech, and conduct can obtain it. In addition, it belongs to the light attribute, while our crown prince belongs to the dark attribute, which is incompatible with the Holy Grail. Rather than receiving its blessing, it might more accurately be cursed.

I won't take that risk when things are uncertain.

For Olympia, who doesn't possess any royal artifacts, obtaining the Holy Grail is the best option, since no one knows if it will reject other artifacts. Judging from Dionysus's behavior alone, I think I know the Holy Grail is a very domineering artifact.

Mu Yegui felt that obtaining the Holy Grail was not so simple, just as her choice to let Mu Yin replace her as crown prince at the secret mansion showed her caution.

She was observing, observing what Olycia would become after obtaining the item.

Because the Holy Grail is an artifact guarded by Dionysus, the first apostle of the Sloth in the Kingdom of the Inconceivable, it is distinctly different from other artifacts in its significance.

Perhaps, as Dionysus said, it was just an ordinary drinking cup, but it did have healing properties; whether it was the legendary Holy Grail is still uncertain.

If we assume the Holy Grail is genuine, then Dionysus would not let go of the person who took it, whether it is real or fake, it is the cup he always used to drink from.

Of course, the most important point is that Dionysus gave up too quickly. He didn't mention the Holy Grail at all when he left, which gives people a very strange feeling. It makes people wonder why Dionysus didn't say anything more after others took the Holy Grail.

Unless, of course, he knew that the Holy Grail would eventually return to him.

Under what circumstances would the Holy Grail return to his hands?
The owner is dead?

Or did the ritual of recognizing the Lord fail?
In the current situation, items will indeed return when the owner dies, and then a new slot will become available.

However, there is another situation.

Currently, there are only two Crown Prince items that have not yet been obtained. One of the Crown Prince items has already been decided to be in another instance, so the Holy Grail in the current instance has become the only Crown Prince item that can be obtained.

However, if a crown prince were killed at this moment, causing the item to return, then the vacant spot might generate a new crown prince item, meaning the Holy Grail might not be defined as a crown prince item anymore.

If her hypothesis is correct, then Dionysus's departure without a word suggests he intends to hunt down a crown prince to replace the Holy Grail. In that case, a new crown prince would be created, the Holy Grail would be replaced, and it would naturally return to Dionysus's hands.

But did Dionysus really think that way?
The rules do not state that the crown prince cannot be killed outside the instance.

“Feilu, what would happen if the Crown Prince died?” Mu Yegui asked.

[When the Crown Prince dies, his items break, and new Crown Prince items will be generated for other players to obtain.]

Just as she expected, the Crown Prince's props would regenerate after being broken.

"Outside the instance, can the crown prince be killed?" Mu Yegui asked again.

Theoretically, anyone outside the capital city can be killed anywhere. This applies to both players and apostles; it's not against the rules. However, very few people choose to kill the crown prince directly, and the crown prince isn't easy to kill. After all, killing the crown prince doesn't allow you to inherit his crown prince items, and it might even incur hatred from the crown prince's kingdom—the disadvantages outweigh the advantages.

Just as Mu Ye was about to say something, he heard Fei Lu's voice again.

[Ding! The High Priest has slain two crown princes, and two new crown prince items will be regenerated. Players are encouraged to participate in the dungeon.]

Does the slain crown prince not even deserve a title?
How ruthless!

"I see it." Mu Yegui peeked out and saw the gift box in the center of the hall, with rabbit soldiers patrolling in front of it.

"Just take it?" Mu Yin asked in surprise.

"Mm." Mu Yegui nodded.

Without hesitation, she rushed towards the gift box. Just then, a group of rabbit soldiers walked past her. Her bare, round little feet lightly touched the ground, and she jumped up lightly, using one hand to press down on the head of one of the rabbit soldiers, turning him into a wall, and flipped over to the other side of the rabbit soldiers.

Using the momentum, she scooped up the gift box from the ground, steadied herself, and braked abruptly. She had moved more than a meter, her long, misty gray hair flying in the air before it even had time to fall. She returned to the gate in the same way, blocking the rabbit soldiers' view.

The entire process took less than three seconds, and even when they attacked the rabbit soldiers in the middle, it did not attract their attention at all.

Mu Yin whistled and praised, "Your movements haven't regressed."

"Is Xiao Yin mocking me for showing mercy to others?" Mu Yegui retorted.

"No, I just feel that you've been exercising less lately, so I'm a little worried about whether you can really get back into the swing of things," Mu Yin said slowly.

"Is Xiao Yin an idiot? I've never heard of Samuro's body becoming stiff if he doesn't exercise." Mu Yegui took the box and climbed over the wall into the mansion to start looking for Olivia and the others.

Mu Yin: "..." He's being insulted again!

The next chapter will be the end.
