Laplace shared the information she had obtained, though she omitted some details about failed challenges. Everyone... understood.
"The special dreamscape 'Sunshine Circus' has currently accommodated two Challengers and will activate a new challenge mode."
"Loading new mode..."
"New mode loaded successfully."
"Available challenge modes: solo race and relay race."
That was all the information Laplace had received.
The solo race was the same as before: one person challenged every course alone. At the same time, the solo race came with a weight bonus, granting a higher exploration level.
The newly added relay race, meanwhile, required five Challengers before it could begin. Each of the five Challengers would tackle one course, and exploration levels would be awarded based on their performance on the different courses.
Like the solo race, if the relay race could be completed in full, the trapped Laplace and Rabbit Girl could be rescued.
Moreover, the relay race and solo race belonged to different challenge modes, so Laplace and Rabbit Girl could also take part on the same day.
In other words, if they chose the relay race now, Laplace and Rabbit Girl were already contestants. They only needed to select three more.
The reason Laplace had said Luigi did not need to take risks was because of the relay race.
For now, the Fire Ring Track had a hard requirement: there had to be a performance, or the Phantom Dolphin would not move forward. So if they chose the relay race, Luigi could take the third course.
As long as he did not leap into the silver sea and court death himself, the third course was basically not dangerous at all. It was very suitable for Luigi.
"So, you want us to challenge the relay race?" Angel asked.
"Yes. The relay race will be less difficult." Laplace
