Crouched down, Catherine looked at the rabbit that hopped onto William’s shoulder with imnse curiosity.
"Greenie actually followed you on its own... So strange. When I ca to the circus before, they were quite fond of . I never expected you, William, to be the higher priority."
The beast tar Zock beside them offered an explanation, "Rabbits will preferentially bond with individuals who possess a ’Circus Physique,’ aning those who have special traits at the ’Physical Level.’
Obviously, in the eyes of the rabbits, William’s physical malleability is a cut above yours, Catherine."
Instead of getting upset by this belittlent, Catherine actually agreed with the assessnt, "That’s to be expected, I’ve personally appraised William’s physique, that muscle contour, distribution, and the rare trait of whole-body Madness Brain. You definitely can’t find another like that in the entire circus.
Let’s go on, shall we continue our tour."
Zock also started to reassess the young man beside him. Previously, his attention had been focused on the Black Insane Brain, but now that he was Sensing the Physical, he indeed found it extraordinary and couldn’t deduce how William’s physical form had been ’forged.’
At that mont, William, caught in the middle, spoke up, "You two, why does it feel like a palm when this rabbit stands on my shoulder?"
Catherine imdiately explained, "Of course~ Because these rabbits are ’body hairs’ that fell from that ringmaster’s body, the rabbits are essentially part of him.
Since his body is both good and bad, that’s why there are classifications of dangerous rabbits and safe rabbits."
"Hmm..."
Hearing such an explanation, William grew even more interested in the head of the circus troupe.
As they continued walking along the corridor ford between photography studios, more rabbits appeared, mainly those with white eyes.
According to the rules of the circus, all one needed to do with white-eyed rabbits was to ignore them. As they passed by, from the lips of the rabbits ca seductive human language, tempting individuals to respond to their words.
Of course, William’s brain energy easily resisted the effect, and there was even less cause for concern for Catherine and Zock.
After turning three corners, chirp chirp~ a rabbit suddenly leaped out.
Its eyes shone like blood gemstones, and although it looked like an ordinary rabbit, the dangerous aura it emitted stimulated William’s physique, forcing his muscles to tense and even reach for the weapons in his suitcase.
Just then,
Whoosh!
The green-eyed rabbit on his shoulder shot out like an arrow, pouncing straight at the red-eyed rabbit,
The two rabbits fiercely bit and clawed at each other, their fur flying in the air as they even jumped more than ten ters high to continue their brawl, with blood splattering.
In the end, the green-eyed rabbit killed the red-eyed rabbit at the cost of one of its eyes.
Next, sothing bizarre happened.
Creak creak~ Flesh split open.
The belly of the green-eyed rabbit tore open and tentacles grew out in abundance, instantly dragging the corpse of the red-eyed rabbit into it, and after a series of spasms, it finished digesting it.
The destroyed eyeball also regrew, a hint of red appearing in the new eye, but after a period of filtering, it returned to green and hopped back to William’s shoulder.
"This..." William was astounded.
"Wow, this is so interesting!" Catherine clapped continuously, highly praising the rabbit fight.
After witnessing the scene, Zock gritted his teeth;
as a beast tar, he could infer much more from the rabbit fight, concluding that the head behind the circus had seemingly grown much stronger, widening the gap further.
Just as the group paused briefly,
The door of a nearby photography studio suddenly opened,
A blond man wearing dungarees and walking on stilts erged, his stilts pieced together with the robust, flawless lower legs of n.
This person was the circus’ third ringmaster—Mossande Wise.
"Catherine, Zock! I knew I sensed sothing, what brings you here... And this young fellow, isn’t this the one from the nightmare? Is he joining the circus too?"
"Isn’t this a visit to bring William over? Can Mozander give us a little privilege to let us watch your performance?"
Mozander had intended to refuse, but a sidelong glance at the beast tar Zock sent cold sweat trickling down his cheek.
"Well, my stilt team is in rehearsal, just co on in. But you still need to follow the rules, try not to make any noise, although it’s impossible for my team to make a mistake."
"Yay~ There’s a good show to watch, let’s go in."
Catherine quickly pulled on William’s arm, dragging him in.
The hundred-ter-scale photography studio was packed with ’stilt perforrs’ under Mozander’s command,
Their stilts were connected by several leg bones, rooting into their heels for support, with each perforr reaching heights over 10 ters.
The perforrs continued to increase their height by forming human ladders, reaching over a hundred ters, with the stunt perforrs at the top performing various high-difficulty acts.
"Amazing!"
William was quickly captivated by such an impressive performance, absorbed in it, even wanting to applaud, but his brain imdiately popped up the rule forbidding interference with the performance, forcing his hands to slowly lower from their clapping position.
Catherine also leaned in quietly, "Great, right? The circus’s performance standards are really high, Mozander’s team might not be frightening enough, but the artistic content and technical level are still very high."
"Indeed, not bad."
The performance carried on normally,
Even with the difficulty steadily increasing, under Mozander’s leadership, the entire team could perfectly manage.
Just then, William’s peripheral vision coincidentally caught sight of the front door of the studio being opened, or rather, it was forgotten to be locked.
Moreover, the door was being slowly pushed open.
It wasn’t a stranger pushing the door, but a rabbit with ruby eyes.
The rabbit slipped in quietly;
since Mozander’s team was engrossed in the performance, they did not notice.
The red-eyed rabbit didn’t run around but imdiately looked toward the audience seats, towards William’s seat.
"Oh no!"
William realized sothing was wrong and reached out to stop the green-eyed rabbit on his shoulder.
Whoosh!
The rabbit had already pounced out, ignoring the rehearsal in progress, and darted across the area.
Thwack! The high-speed sprinting rabbit, coincidentally, hit a moving stilt... the impact sent brain matter flying, and the headless corpse was flung several ters away.
Due to the professionalism of the performance team, such a strong impact did not directly cause the human ladder to collapse.
However, a sense of shaking began to spread slowly to the top, magnifying constantly. As a result, the perforr at the top, doing high-difficulty maneuvers, couldn’t keep his balance and fell straight down.
High-altitude fall!
Thud! Landing headfirst, his entire head caved inward, with blood seeping out, an accident occurred.
When William looked back towards the door, the previously seen red-eyed rabbit had disappeared without a trace and even the door had been closed.
Only the dead green-eyed rabbit and the failed acrobat remained at the scene... As the green-eyed rabbit’s host, William was imdiately targeted.
For violating Rule Four, William needed to take the place of this perforr and complete the rest of the rehearsal.
As the team leader, Mozander didn’t bla him for anything but also showed a puzzled look. In his view, William was not the type to be this careless, but since the rule was broken, it was irreversible.
"William, right? It seems your physique isn’t too bad, take ten minutes to get used to the stilts... Rehearsal restarts in ten minutes, if you fail again, things will be very troubleso."
