Fang Zheng's speculation shocked and horrified the Rose Maidens. They had never thought that this would happen. But after thinking about it carefully, they had to admit that Fang Zheng's speculation was even quite reasonable. Because in fact, they didn't know why their father abandoned them. The so-called "because they are imperfect Alice, so they have to become perfect Alice" was just an explanation they came up with.

As to whether this explanation was correct or not, no one knew, but they didn't know what to do, so they had to follow the rabbit's instructions.

In Fang Zheng's opinion, the best way is to find the rabbit, confront it and find out the truth.

but……

"We are no match for it."

Even Mercury Lamp had to admit that they were simply no match for the rabbit. In fact, Shinku had confronted Mercury Lamp once before, and the rabbit appeared and announced that the time was up and everyone should go back home to sleep. Of course, Mercury Lamp and Shinku were unwilling to do so, and the rabbit easily threw them away.

You know, in terms of combat power, Mercury Lamp and Shinhong are both quite powerful, but in the end, neither of them was a match for the rabbit. This shows that even if the two sides really fall out, there will be no good results.

However, Fang Zheng disagreed.

"Problems always need to be solved. You don't want this problem to continue to bother you. If you stop here because of cowardice, aren't you falling into the other party's trap? Besides, I also have a way to solve this problem... Why not start now?"

Fang Zheng has always been vigorous and resolute in his work. He does what he wants to do. After making a decision, he looked at the Green Star Stone.

"Green Star Stone, open the door to my dream, and then all of you can go in."

"The gate to dreams?"

Hearing Fang Zheng's words, Cui Xingshi was stunned for a moment, and then his expression changed drastically.

"Wait, human, are you planning to use that..."

"Yes, in the final analysis, we need to solve the problem, and it's not like we don't have ways to solve it."

Fang Zheng snapped his fingers.

"Besides, he's just a Laplace demon. I want to see what he can do..."

"this……"

Hearing Fang Zheng's words, the Rose Maidens looked at each other in bewilderment. They were all a little tempted, but on the other hand, what if this thing failed...

"What are you dawdling for? Hurry up."

On the contrary, Fang Zheng looked extremely anxious.

"Finish it quickly so we can come back for dinner. If you keep dawdling it will be past dinner time. Are you still going to have dinner?"

Is this a dinner issue?

Hearing this, even Mercury Lamp wanted to complain.

But in the end, the Rozen Maidens all agreed, and even Mercury Lamp wanted to follow in. The reason why she attacked the other sisters was because she heard that Alice could see her father through the game. But what if all this was a conspiracy, a trap, then wouldn't all her efforts be in vain?

In the end, the Emerald Star Stone opened the portal according to Fang Zheng's order, and then led the Rose Maidens into Fang Zheng's dream.

As for Meikan, Eve and Lapis...well, they went to make dinner.

Have a good meal tonight.

“Plop.”

The moment they entered Fang Zheng's dream, the puppets were swallowed up by the surging waves. When they opened their eyes again, they found themselves standing in a strange, twisted and huge city.

"Is this your dream?"

Shinku frowned and stared around, looking at the huge city submerged by the sea. Although there was nothing around, she felt as if something was hiding in the cracks of the darkness, peeping at them. Hinami was so scared that she hid behind Shinku, trembling.

Turquoise had been here once before, so she had some resistance, but Blue Star Stone was obviously quite nervous, and even summoned her scissors without waiting to speak, looking around vigilantly. Even Mercury Lamp had a serious expression at this moment, she looked at the huge fortresses in irregular geometric shapes covered by water plants, then looked at Zhenhong and others, hesitated for a moment, and quietly approached Zhenhong a little.

At least we know everyone here, so feel at ease.

"This isn't my dream... Never mind, it's part of it."

Fang Zheng was too lazy to explain. Although he did not have the divinity of the ancient gods, he did have the characteristics of the ancient gods... Never mind, this sounded better than being called the God of Lust.

No matter what, at least he didn't find himself in a street of debauchery and wine as soon as he entered. If that happened, Fang Zheng's reputation would be ruined.

The ancient god is still an ancient god, and he is stronger than the god of lust.

"Call out that rabbit."

"But I don't know either..."

"It must be paying attention to you, just shout."

"Laplace!"

After hearing Fang Zheng's words, Zhen Hong had no choice but to shout. However, her voice floated in the sea water and disappeared quietly after a while.

There was silence all around.

"It seems no one has said anything."

"Keep shouting."

Fang Zheng seemed very calm.

"Just say you want to give up the Alice game, I don't see if it will come out."

“…”

Hearing this, Zhenhong hesitated for a moment, then shouted.

"Laplace, come out quickly, we have something to ask you! Otherwise we will give up the Alice game!"

"That's right, we are going to give up the Alice game! We don't want to continue playing it!"

At this moment, Cui Xingshi also started to yell. She didn't want to participate in the Alice game in the first place. If her sister Cang Xingshi hadn't been so stubborn and insisted on joining, she wouldn't have been so angry. Now Cui Xingshi had found a way to vent her anger, and she immediately started to yell.

“Oh my…”

At this moment, suddenly, a voice was heard, and then everyone saw a creature with a rabbit head and a human body walking out from behind the wall. It was wearing a top hat, a gentleman's suit, and a cane in its hand. It looked more like a gentleman traveling around the world.

"I never thought you would want to give up Alice Games. If my old friend knew his child was so disobedient, he would probably be very sad."

“…”

Hearing the rabbit's words, Rozen Maiden's expression changed slightly, and Verdurous Star Stone glared at it fiercely.

"What nonsense are you talking about? If you hadn't..."

However, before Cui Xingshi could finish her words, Fang Zheng stretched out his hand to stop her. Then he looked at the rabbit in front of him and smiled slightly.

"Are you Laplace?"

"Yes, you are the medium of the fifth doll."

The rabbit glanced at the ring on Fang Zheng's finger and then looked away.

Fang Zheng stared at the rabbit and nodded.

"Yes, in fact, I came to you this time because I have three questions to ask you."

"oh?"

Hearing Fang Zheng's question, the rabbit smiled meaningfully.

"Three questions? Interesting. This is the first time I've seen a medium ask me questions. So, what do you want to ask me?"

"First."

Fang Zheng raised a finger.

"The puppeteer who made these puppets...I remember his name was Luo Zhen. Does he know about Alice Games?"

"certainly."

In response to Fang Zheng's question, the rabbit gentleman smiled elegantly.

"Of course he knows about the Alice Games. In fact, it was his idea to let the Rozen Maidens play the Alice Games."

“…”

Upon hearing this, Zhenhong and Cuixingshi's expressions changed, but Fangzheng seemed to have heard nothing and continued to raise his second finger.

"Second, the rules of the Alice Game are that the Rose Maidens fight each other for each other's Rose Madonna, and the one who survives at the end becomes Alice and sees Luo Zhen again... Is that right?"

"That's right."

Gentleman Rabbit nodded again.

"Like I said, these are the rules of Alice's game."

“…”

Hearing this, Cui Xingshi clenched her fists, while Cang Xingshi looked at her sister in silence, and Mercury Lamp stared at the rabbit with some excitement in his eyes.

However, Fang Zheng remained unmoved and raised his third finger.

"Third, did Luo Zhen know the rules of Alice's game at first?"

"……?"

Hearing Fang Zheng's question, several Rose Maidens looked at Fang Zheng in confusion. In their opinion, this question seemed to be repeated. And this question didn't need an answer at all. After all, Rabbit had already answered it before. It was Luo Zhen who wanted Rose Maiden to play Alice's game. So how could he not know the rules of Alice's game? Shouldn't he have set these rules?

However, after hearing Fang Zheng's question, the Rabbit Gentleman was stunned for a moment, and then burst into laughter.

"Interesting, really interesting...hahahaha...I see, no wonder it turned out like this..."

"What do you mean, Laplace?"

Seeing the crazy laughing rabbit, Zhenhong frowned immediately, stared at it and asked. But the rabbit ignored Zhenhong's question and looked at Fangzheng with a smile.

"I didn't expect you to find this out."

"It's just an old trick of the devil."

Fang Zheng shrugged his shoulders and laughed at the rabbit in front of him.

"Of course, you are free to say what you want."

"No, since you have already guessed it, it doesn't matter whether I tell you or not..."

At this point, the rabbit bowed slightly.

"As you said, he doesn't know the rules of Alice's game."

"Why?"

"ah?"

"How is this possible?"

Hearing this, the Rozen Maidens were stunned.

The rabbit clearly said that the Alice Game was proposed by his father, so how could he not know the rules?

"Haha, now that we've come to this point, I'll tell you the truth."

The rabbit put his hands behind his back, looked at the people in front of him, and then began to tell a story.

A long time ago, there was a talented puppeteer who had superb skills and a heart that loved puppets. This puppeteer also had his own goal, he longed to create the most perfect, beautiful and lovely puppet in the world - Alice.

So, he started making Alice dolls.

The first test product is... mercury lamp.

However, in the process of making the mercury lamp, the puppeteer discovered a problem. No matter how talented and skilled he was, he was only a human being. He could not give life to the puppets and make them truly alive. This made the puppeteer very painful. However, just when he was desperate, a devil found him and made a contract with him.

He taught Luo Zhen the technique of giving life to puppets called Our Lady of the Rose, and told him that as long as he completed the puppets and let them participate in the Alice Game, they would become the perfect Alice that Luo Zhen expected.

Luo Zhen accepted the devil's proposal, signed a contract with it, and started making dolls again.

"I see. That's why there's no Madonna of the Rose in the Mercury Lamp."

Hearing this, Fang Zheng suddenly understood. He had been curious about why Luo Zhen didn't finish making the mercury lamp. After a long time, he realized that it was because the two sides had different manufacturing bases. This was like changing a steam locomotive into an electric high-speed train. It was simply an impossible task.

So Luo Zhen gave up the mercury lamp and started making new dolls.

Of course, this is not without cost.

Just as Fang Zheng discovered, the Rose Madonna actually also injects life force into the dolls, but Fang Zheng's is a blood transfusion, while the Rose Madonna is equivalent to an artificial heart, and Luo Zhen is responsible for providing life energy. Soon, Luo Zhen's body became thinner and thinner, but he didn't care. For Luo Zhen, as long as he can complete the Rose Maiden series and let them participate in the Alice game and become Alice, that is his greatest happiness!

Even if it means sacrificing everything I have.

Finally, at the last moment, Luo Zhen also arrived at the finish line. As long as he made one last doll, everything would be over.

At this time, Luo Zhen finally couldn't hold back his curiosity and asked the devil he had contracted how to complete the Alice Game. It was only at this time that Luo Zhen finally learned the rules of the Alice Game from the devil.

That is the rule that the puppets kill each other and fight for other people's Rose Mother!

This is also the reason why the other party gave him the Virgin of the Rose!

After learning the rules of Alice's game, Luo Zhen was shocked. He had never thought that it would be such a vicious game. But now he was in a dilemma. Either he had to make the last doll and start Alice's game, watching his beloved daughters kill each other, or he had to break his promise to the devil and be taken away by him.

Finally, Luo Zhen made a decision.

He gave up making the last doll and broke his promise to the devil, and then his soul was taken away by the devil and imprisoned in the gap between eternal time and space. Then, the rabbit appeared in front of the Rose Maidens who had lost their father and announced the start of the Alice game.

Luo Zhen was powerless to do anything about it. He could only watch it all but could do nothing.

“How could it be…”

After listening to the rabbit's story, the Rose Maidens turned pale. They had never expected that the truth of the matter would be like this!

"You actually, you actually killed my father! I want to avenge my father!!"

At this moment, Cang Xingshi roared, raised his scissors and rushed towards the rabbit. At the same time, Mercury Lamp on the other side also had a cold face, waved his hands, and the wings behind him suddenly turned into two giant dragons, opened their mouths and pounced on the rabbit.

However, facing the attack of the two, the rabbit gentleman was not in a hurry, he stretched out his hand and slapped forward. The next moment, the two of them flew backwards as if they were hit by a car and fell heavily to the ground.

"Blue Star Stone!"

“Mercury lamp!!”

At this moment, Cui Xingshi and Zhen Hong also hurried to the two of them, while the rabbit withdrew its gaze and looked at Fang Zheng.

"I never thought that a mortal like you could actually see through this."

"Nonsense, isn't it just the devil's trick?"

Fang Zheng yawned.

"Find those desperate people, and then give them an offer they can't refuse, and then add a secret overlord clause. This is an old trick. I guess Luo Zhen was also bewitched and signed the contract without reading it. After all, those who can be deceived by you are probably just fools with great talent but little brains."

"Haha, now that you know that, you still dare to come to me?"

"Of course. Do you think you're the only one who can show off?"

"boom……"

As Fang Zheng finished speaking, the sea water suddenly began to stir. Then, the shadows in the distance changed inexplicably, and appeared above R'lyeh without anyone noticing. A dim light illuminated the entire underwater city. Along with low growls, blurry, distorted shadows that looked like wolves and dogs emerged from the sharp-angled shadows of the strange geometric patterns. They had blazing eyes, protruding jaws, and their outlines kept changing, as if all the evil in the universe was reshaping them all the time.

"Now that you're here, don't leave."

At this moment, Fang Zheng's eyes instantly became cold and ruthless.

"Let my hounds play a game of hunting with you, the rabbit!"

Having said this, Fang Zheng whistled.

The next moment, countless Tindalos hounds suddenly jumped out from the shadow of the sharp corners, howling and rushing towards the rabbit gentleman! !
