Chapter 4180 Maggie
Upon seeing the rabbit girl appear on the flower path, a cheer erupted in the rose garden, and even the air seemed to be filled with golden dust of joy.
The bunny girl kept her promise!
She completed the Golden City perfectly with just one life!
How could this not be something to celebrate?
Amidst the excitement and joy of the crowd, the rabbit girl remained calm. Firstly, she felt that her performance hadn't been particularly good; secondly, she hadn't returned alone, as there was a figure following behind her.
The boisterous cheers abruptly ceased when the bunny girl stepped aside, revealing the figure behind her. All eyes were fixed on this unexpected newcomer.
She was a white-haired girl who was probably only about 1.5 meters tall.
Wearing a red and white tutu, the plain white dress was covered with all sorts of dolls: a little white horse with sunshine and rainbows, pink clouds like cotton candy, and a chubby, round little blue bird that was eating a lot...
She looks like a vibrant, homebody girl who's just entered the awkward phase of puberty, wanting to both restrain herself and express herself.
Despite being stared at by everyone, the girl didn't flinch. Instead, she smiled brightly with her amber eyes and greeted everyone.
However, the content of her greeting didn't quite match her friendly expression.
"Wow! Your entire bodies are made of crystals, so hard yet you can move! Are you sure you're not a variant of the Stone Golem?"
"Another crystal person, but she looks very ladylike, a young lady! By the way, I'm curious, do you crystal people defecate? Is your poop soft or hard? Is it transparent or opaque?"
"My name is Maggie. Can we be friends? If we're friends, can you show me yours...?"
She first looked at Ifda and the Crystal Eye people on the outermost edge, her eyes burning with curiosity.
However, the question she asked was rather bizarre.
This caused Iphda and her clansmen to freeze in shock and awkwardly turn their faces away.
"Ignoring me? Fine..." The white-haired girl who called herself Maggie didn't care and glanced at the others.
"Huh?! There's even a teacup shard here! And it's matte porcelain! Excuse my curiosity, is every part of your body like this? If you do strenuous exercise, will that part break?"
Gray Porcelain: "..."
Seeing that Grey Porcelain didn't say anything, Maggie leaned closer and whispered, "I meant running, nothing else..."
Gray Porcelain: "No...no."
"It won't break? So if it's not for running..."
Gray Porcelain stopped responding.
Maggie's gaze then fell upon Gabriel beside the gray porcelain. Looking at his enormous body and fluffy tentacles, her eyes instantly lit up like searchlights: "Wow, such soft tentacles! It looks like a sea urchin, so soft and squishy. Can I touch your belly? By the way, do you have a belly?"
Is your stomach below your mouth?
Gabriel, like Gray Porcelain, was speechless. He couldn't help but turn to look at the rabbit girl, his eyes clearly saying: What on earth is going on?
Stunned by Maggie's astonishing statement, the rabbit girl quickly recovered and hurried to her side, trying to change the subject while Maggie turned to the next person: "Um, let me introduce you all, this is the observer of the Golden Land, her name is..."
He was interrupted before he could finish speaking.
“I already told you, my name is Maggie, and I’m a stylist!” Maggie puffed out her chest, put her hands on her hips, and spoke with a hint of pride. “I used to own a private styling shop in Connor! If you come to my shop for a styling session, I’ll give you a 20% discount…”
Just as she finished being smug, Maggie seemed to remember something and her whole dejected expression fell: "Oh, I almost forgot, I think I'm a little dead. This is just a memory that the great power of the fairy realm reshaped for me."
"Oh dear, I can't give you a discount."
Everyone fell silent: They hadn't even considered getting a makeover!
Taking advantage of Maggie's slightly dazed expression, the rabbit girl quickly continued, "After I cleared the Golden City, I met Maggie. I invited her to join us, but Maggie didn't agree immediately, so I took her to the manor to show her around and let her get to know us..."
At this point, the rabbit girl glanced at Montedan, her eyes conveying a knowing look.
Everyone present understood the unspoken agreement.
When Montedan joined, they had pondered that, given the nature of the Wonderland powers, the observers in the six-fold puzzle were not ordinary NPCs. They were shaped to carry the mission of assisting the ultimate winner of the sandbox.
Therefore, every observer must possess extraordinary abilities.
Therefore, if you have the opportunity after clearing the game, try to invite the observer to join the dream.
This is also why the bunny girl brought Maggie to the manor.
However, judging from the bunny girl's words, although Maggie agreed to visit the manor, she has not yet agreed to join the Dream Mirror... This is normal, just like Montessori did not immediately choose to join the Dream Mirror at first.
The bunny girl believed that Maggie would change her mind once she got to know her better.
What the bunny girl didn't expect was that Maggie started talking nonsense as soon as she entered the manor.
However, recalling their first meeting, the other party had the same attitude: "I don't really approve of your clear. You used too many overpowered items, and you killed the game."
From this perspective, Maggie didn't treat anyone differently.
That seems to be her personality.
To say she's sharp-tongued wouldn't be quite accurate; she just says whatever comes to mind without any inhibitions.
In summary, it is...
“Maggie likes to speak her mind directly, which may be a little ‘offensive’, but please don’t mind it.”
Yes, it was offensive.
Or rather, they can't grasp the appropriate level of discretion in their speech.
Angell and Laplace remained calm, as Maggie had not yet "offended" them, while Gray Porcelain and Gabriel, though embarrassed, were not angry about what had just been said.
Although Maggie was "offending," she didn't actually hit the nail on the head.
Angel coughed. "We're planning a small stone table meeting. The topic is: post-war debriefing. Since Miss Maggie is here, why don't you join us for a listen?"
Post-war debriefing? Maggie nodded noncommittally: "Sure. By the way, are you human? Is your head pointy?"
Angel: "...Pointy head?"
Is that a swear word?
Maggie brushed aside the white hair on the top of her head, completely unconcerned about its disheveled state, and pointed to her slightly protruding, pointed head: "I've never seen a human before, but I've heard that human heads are different from ours. Mine are pointed, what about yours?"
Seeing Maggie's noticeably higher, pointed head, Angell seemed to guess her origins.
"Are you a top individual from the Deluna dimension?"
Maggie nodded, then shook her head: "I am a Sharp One, but I don't live in the Druna plane. According to my limited memory, I've lived in Kronord since I was a child."
After Maggie finished speaking, she also introduced Kronord, a seaside city in the world of Shamte.
"The World of Hante?" Angell: "Are you a Mind Master?"
“Yes, huh? You know about Nen Masters too?” Maggie looked surprised, but then quickly realized something. “That makes sense, you’re human. As far as I know, human wizards often deal with Nen Masters in the world of Hante, so it’s normal for you to know about them.”
Maggie was actually being quite restrained in her words. As far as Angel knew, when wizards and psychics said they "deal with each other," they actually started hurling spells and psychic powers at each other the moment they met, fighting from the frozen wasteland to the void ruins, often resulting in a death match that smashed through the land and shattered mountains.
At least in the Southern Wizarding World, the relationship between the two sides is almost entirely hostile.
“I live in Konnord, which is a bit remote; no humans have ever been here.” Maggie tilted her head and looked at Angel. “So, I’m a little curious, are human heads pointed?”
Angel shook his head and brushed the hair off his head: "It's not pointed."
Seeing this, Maggie sighed with some regret: "Well, it seems that humans will also have to be removed from my breeding list."
"Huh?" Angell looked at Maggie in surprise. What? What kind of breeding?
Not only Angell, but everyone else stared at Maggie in disbelief.
How could someone just blurt out something like that?
Maggie looked at the crowd with some confusion: "What's so surprising? Don't you all know that people from different ethnic groups can't have children together?"
"Just like dogs and I are two different groups, so we can't reproduce; similarly, humans and I are also two different groups, so we can't reproduce either."
What Maggie was talking about was reproductive isolation, which is indeed an indisputable fact.
However, her statements always give the impression of being offended.
Angell: "What does this have to do with being pointed on the head?"
Maggie tilted her head: "My mom said that only people with pointed heads can be included in my breeding list. So far, I only know about pointed people... but I don't like pointed people, so I want to see if other races have pointed heads too."
Angell: "..." Judging whether someone is fertile or not based on the tip of their head is a bit too strange.
That being said, it was the first time Angell and Maggie had met, so it wasn't appropriate to say much. They could only laugh it off and temporarily skip this somewhat dead-end topic.
……
The Stone Table Conference has resumed.
Angell placed Maggie next to Montessori, hoping to influence her decision by having them both be "observers".
Next, everyone turned their attention to the protagonist of this stone table meeting—the rabbit girl.
Everyone was curious about what she had experienced in the Golden Land.
The rabbit girl thought for a moment and said, "Actually, I didn't experience too much, just two fights."
"Just two games?"
"Well... it counts as two matches, one on the second floor of Golden City and one on the third floor."
At this point, the rabbit girl added, "After clearing the second level, it actually means you've cleared the normal mode. If you choose to end the game at this point, you'll ascend to the Silver Throne."
"If you choose to continue the strategy, you will enter the perfect completion mode, which is the third level."
They initially guessed that, given Nereid's situation, the Golden City would likely require clearing the third level before reaching the perfect completion mode.
But after experiencing it firsthand, the bunny girl actually cleared the second level and went straight into perfect mode.
"Once you clear the third level, you can ascend the Golden Throne and obtain the full score."
After giving a brief introduction, the rabbit girl went on to describe the details of the two battles.
The first battle took place on the second level of the Golden City, where I faced off against a golden phantom.
This battle is not difficult.
It can even be said to be very simple.
The opponent is a humanoid phantom, and among the five types of phantoms—human, beast, bird, insect, and plant—it falls into the medium difficulty category. Its overall abilities are well-rounded, but it doesn't have any particularly outstanding strengths.
Because she didn't have many strengths and her abilities were too average, she appeared extremely mediocre compared to the bunny girl's overwhelming skills.
Only the occasional "instant kill" attack poses any threat.
However, the bunny girl has a strong ability to foresee danger, and the humanoid phantom's instant-kill attack doesn't cover a wide area; as long as you dodge it, you're fine.
Furthermore, since the bunny girl did not choose gold items on the first floor, she would not suffer any negative gold penalties or gold suppression, and the phantom's abilities were also weakened.
At the same time, she was a one-woman army, with no teammates holding her back.
In this situation, if we still can't take down the Golden Illusion on the second level by using all sorts of methods, then it would truly be a joke.
In short, the rabbit girl easily cleared the second level.
But the third layer is a little different.
After clearing the second level, a magnificent silver-white throne appeared before the rabbit girl, along with the familiar "Gate of Awakening".
"Silver Throne: A throne that can only be ascended by challenger teams that successfully hunt down the Golden Phantom."
"Ascending to the throne is the final step; each team can only choose one throne to sit on."
The rabbit girl was not about to stop for a silver throne, so she chose to enter the "Gate of Awakening" and go to the third level of the Golden Land.
In other words, it is the true land of gold.
Like Nereid, a new prompt appeared in the text box after she made her choice.
Welcome to "Golden Land," one of the six platter dishes.
"Level Introduction: This level comes from ???, and the challenger team's goal is to successfully hunt the Golden Phantom and ascend the throne."
"Note 1: This level is located in the [True Golden Land] realm. The combat logic no longer follows the established template, and there are no fixed, mechanic-based behaviors."
"Note 2: This level carries a real risk of death; once vital signs drop to zero, there is no chance of revival."
"Note 3: The team leader has the authority to leave immediately. After selecting [Leave], the current level progress will be forcibly settled, and the level entrance will be permanently closed, making it impossible to re-enter."
Without the slightest hesitation, the bunny girl immediately started the perfect mode challenge.
Upon entering the challenge, she immediately received combat information for the third level in her mind—
On the third level of the Golden City, she will enter the lost ancient golden city. All she has to do is fight her way from the city gate to the palace and ascend the golden throne.
Yes, the third level is the "Chain Wheel" battle.
The bunny girl said she only fought two fights, counting this "relay battle" as one.
It sounds calm and collected, but it is actually extremely dangerous.
It could be said that every few steps on the road to the throne, a golden phantom would appear, and her task was to kill all of them.
However, the most difficult thing in this battle is not the Golden Phantom, but... people!
