Mickey's Wonderful House
Have you lost the ability to have children?
Zhou Qing released his arm from Tang San's shoulder and apologized to the Rabbit Girl, "I'm sorry, we shouldn't have made that kind of joke."
"It's alright, I stopped caring about this two hundred years ago anyway."
The Rabbit Girl wore a faint smile, seemingly unconcerned.
Zhou Qing and Tang San looked at each other, realizing that this Rabbit Girl had lived for at least two hundred years!
"So cute!"
Xiao Wu, Hundred-Thousand-Year Soft Bone Charm Rabbit in human form, could not resist the Rabbit Girl who was also a rabbit. She caught up with the Rabbit Girl walking in front of her in a few steps, picked her up, hugged her in her arms, and "ravaged" her vigorously.
"No~"
The Rabbit Girl's fur and face seemed to be very sensitive. When she came into close contact with Xiao Wu, a faint blush appeared on her cheeks, which were covered with brown and gray fur.
This is a physiological reaction of shyness.
Romantina stepped forward, patted the Rabbit Girl's head, and asked, "So, were you male or female before you were transformed?"
Xiao Wu's cheerful smile suddenly froze.
Because she suddenly realized that if this "Rabbit Girl" was actually a man, then this guy would be at least a two-hundred-year-old uncle!
If he really is an older man, I'll make him pay!
Fortunately—
"I've forgotten, but I vaguely remember giving birth to a child..."
"Call--"
Upon realizing this, Xiao Wu breathed a sigh of relief, but also put the Rabbit Girl down from her arms.
"So, how old are you exactly?" Riko ran up to the Rabbit Girl and asked curiously.
"I forgot."
The Rabbit Girl still wore a faint smile, seemingly unconcerned about her age or what she had forgotten.
"Qing Ge."
Tang San realized something.
"Um."
Zhou Qing also realized that this "Rabbit Girl" must have been in the process of ascending, but had not fully withstood the process of her body undergoing a change.
Although she retained her intelligence before the mutation, she had likely lost some of her memories, and compared to Odin, the Beast Transformation aspects of her body were far too obvious, especially her hands and lower body.
The palms were round and plump, with five short, gray claws replacing the original fingers.
The lower body is even more exaggerated. Its legs are like those of a rabbit standing upright. Although it looks quite cute overall, the legs are disproportionate to its long body.
"Arrive."
The Rabbit Girl stopped in her tracks.
Ahead, a Holy Cup Fruit Tree with a diameter of over fifty meters but a height of only twenty meters came into view.
This Holy Cup Fruit Tree has withered, but after its death, its Holy Cup Fruit Tree hardened, becoming as tough as Hundred Refinement Refined Iron, and it even carried a Sisi fragrance that had an invigorating effect.
The Rabbit Girl's house was simply a hole dug into the trunk of this Holy Cup Fruit Tree, serving as the entrance. However, the Gate was very large, five meters long and two meters wide, and there was a round window on each side above the door. Overall, it looked like a goldfish with its mouth wide open.
The door was covered by a roller shutter, which was woven from fine, fish-scale-like leaves. However, whether the Rabbit Girl made it intentionally or not, there was a swirling pattern on the roller shutter.
Enter it—
All the furniture inside is made of wood.
Wooden table, wooden chair, wooden bookshelf.
Wooden bed, wooden barrel, wooden chandelier.
Although the chandelier was made of wood, a transparent glass bottle was tied to the center, which was filled with caterpillars with transparent dots on their backs.
The Rabbit Girl picked up a stick and gently poked at the glass bottle under the chandelier, making it sway.
In an instant, the caterpillar inside began to move, and the transparent dots on its back began to emit a bright light, instantly filling the entire glass bottle and even illuminating the originally dim treehouse space.
[A peculiar kind of "biotechnology"!]
Zhou Qing gained a deeper understanding of how the Abyss People developed and utilized the things within the Abyss Ruins.
This method of using glowing caterpillars as chandeliers, though primitive and simply utilizing the caterpillars' ability to emit strong light, is a manifestation of the wisdom of the Abyss People.
To achieve this level of success without specific tools and technologies for resource extraction, and using existing conditions, is nothing short of a miracle.
After all, just figuring out how these caterpillars glow—the conditions for glowing, the duration of the glow, how many caterpillars to put in a glass jar for the best glowing effect, etc.—requires consideration. It's not as simple as just knowing that caterpillars can glow and then grabbing them all and throwing them into a jar.
"Please wait a moment."
The Rabbit Girl brought out chairs and invited everyone to sit down.
The chairs come in various sizes.
It's small enough for Riko sit down.
The table was large, so Zhou Qing and the others didn't feel awkward sitting down, although the table was indeed a bit low.
A moment later, the Rabbit Girl came out of the room behind, dragging a long bag. She opened it to reveal all sorts of fruits.
"These are Snakeberry Fruit! These are Tour Fruit! And there are also Lantern Fruit!"
Riko got up, picked up the fruits one by one, examined them closely, and was amazed.
She had only ever seen these fruits in textbooks before; she never imagined that this Rabbit Girl had collected so many.
"The fruits in the Holy Cup Fruit Forest all have special uses. Some can detoxify, some can temporarily enhance physical fitness, and some can be used as ignition sources."
The Rabbit Girl always spoke with a faint smile, "If you're going to the lower levels, these things are essential, and if you try to collect them yourselves, it will take you a lot of time on this level."
Now Zhou Qing understood why the Rabbit Girl had invited them over—
Trade.
"So what do we need to give in return?" Zhou Qing asked.
"If you can go to the lower levels, I hope you can help me find news of my wife and children," the Rabbit Girl said with a smile.
"Wife? You're a man?" Xiao Wu's eyes widened, and she suddenly remembered that men could also say things like "I had a child before".
After all, women can't give birth on their own!
"Am I a man or a woman? I don't remember, but I think I used to wear a skirt?" The Rabbit Girl scratched her head, as if recalling past memories, but quickly stopped caring.
Xiao Wu squinted, thinking to herself: You'd better be a woman!
"You adopted the child before entering this Abyss Ruins, didn't you?" Romantina thought of Zi Zhenzhu, who was a woman, but her sexual orientation was abnormal, and she was a woman.
Therefore, if these people want a child, they either need to borrow sperm or adopt.
She prefers the latter.
"No, it was born after we entered the Abyss Ruins, and after we both became Fallen One. My wife got pregnant and gave birth to the child."
The Rabbit Girl smiled and told Zhou Qing and the others the story of how she met a girl named Namiki. She named the treehouse Mickey's Wonderful House, symbolizing the happy times she and Namiki had shared.
Zhou Qing: "..."
