In the ensuing conversation, Qiu Gui truthfully revealed the information about the "giant monster."
"We designed and produced a total of twenty-one large monsters. The original plan was to store them in a capsule-like manner, like the Heart Moon Fox, but they were all lost in the first out-of-control attack."
"We have already resolved the first ten, numbered 1-10."
"I see... No wonder you called that big guy 'Monster Number 10'..." Hyacinth suddenly realized that using numbers to name monsters was indeed convenient and easy to remember; it seemed that it wasn't just her imagination.
But Cheshire Rabbit, listening from the side, was terrified. Not to mention that the number of people around her had exceeded the threshold for the onset of social anxiety and cyberbullying. Rabbit Girl felt that she might tremble and melt to the ground at any moment, turning into a pile of wriggling minimalist artwork.
If Xin Yuehu heard what Qiu Gui and the others were saying, she might angrily wag her bristling tail and start yelling, "Didn't they write the instructions on the card?!" Then she would jump forward, trying to summon a hammer made of balloons to smash Qiu Gui's head.
"In that case, where are the remaining monsters hiding? How about we wipe them all out in one fell swoop!"
Hyacinth put forward a very radical idea.
However, Xia Jin, who was resting on a nearby bench, rejected the plan:
"No, no, absolutely not! You haven't seen how powerful those monsters are. Just fighting that one was already difficult enough. If we lure all the monsters out at once, we're definitely going to get a good beating from them."
"..."
Cheshire Rabbit remained silent, but in his mind he was recalling the specific magical power of the giant monster from earlier.
Maintaining such a massive body requires a considerable amount of magic. Although magic can be used in this mental world, it is subject to certain limitations. It is indeed unrealistic to defeat so many large monsters at once.
After her proposal was rejected, Hyacinth curbed her wild ideas and decided to seriously consider a solution.
Then he noticed a detail that had been overlooked, tilted his head, and asked:
"Speaking of which, Senior Qiugui, did you lose a part of your control over the mental world? Could you elaborate a bit more? When did you lose this control? I think this information might be very important."
"You mean this..." Qiu Gui muttered, stroking her chin, and began to recall more details.
From the summoning of the first giant monster to its inexplicable sudden loss of control, although there are many doubts, they are enough to piece together a complete perspective:
Behind these monsters lies a hidden entity that can only be detected by those with the control authority of the mental world. It seems to have merged into the world itself, controlling the monsters in a way unknown to Qiu Gui, and using their attacks on the surrounding city buildings to "seize" control.
"At first, we used the same tactics and magic as you just mentioned to fight, but when we were scattered, we were easily defeated one by one by the monsters, so we came up with the idea of gathering our strength to fight a decisive battle."
At this point, Qiu Gui's brows suddenly relaxed, and she became very excited, as if she wanted to introduce the super combined robot to the two people in front of her.
Then Chunlan ruthlessly took over the conversation, not giving her a chance to act childishly.
"In short, Qiu Gui proposed the idea of using the rules of mental imagery to create a powerful magical artifact that can fight against giant monsters. She was very determined to use a giant combined robot and even designed a set of actions and lines for unleashing her ultimate move."
"What?! It's so cool!" Qiu Gui said, her face slightly flushed, clutching the hem of her dress with a look of resentment, trying to argue her point.
But then Xia Jin, who was standing next to her, chimed in with a comment:
"Your naming taste is really questionable. We initially suggested you name it 'Super Galaxy Special Beam Cannon,' but you insisted on changing it to something like 'Super Magic Beam.' It sounds like it's not even in the same league."
"That's because we're afraid the kids won't understand it after the film is released..." Qiu Gui muttered under her breath, pouting, before falling silent.
"Released a film? Are you guys still making movies?"
"Of course not now. Back then, we thought that since the camera familiars left behind by Shin-Tsuki-ko could still be active, we planned to film some more footage so that it might come in handy after we got out."
Qiu Gui spread her hands and said,
"Later, the familiars gradually ran out of the Heart Moon Fox's magical power supply and could no longer continue filming. So we used it to try to send out a distress signal outside the mental image, hoping that someone would hear our distress call. We never expected that you guys would actually find out."
Cheshire Rabbit felt an overwhelming urge to complain, but since there was no one around to listen, she tried to steer the conversation towards the camera demons.
Each camera familiar is a deluxe model personally customized by Fox Fox. At the cost of sacrificing all offensive capabilities, all magical power is used to enhance powerful stealth and defensive abilities, enabling it to operate independently for up to 80 hours without any magical power supply.
Furthermore, after being attacked unexpectedly, it can immediately return to Fox's side using the added teleportation magic to ensure absolute safety.
"Give me that familiar, I can replenish its magic power."
Cheshire Rabbit spoke up, and Qiu Gui and her group suddenly realized that there was also a Hammer Rabbit from the Heart Moon Fox team among the people present. They quickly took out the small, soft, and delicate familiar from the magic space and handed it to the pink-haired rabbit girl.
While temporarily replenishing the magic power of the camera familiar that had run out and entered hibernation mode, Cheshire Rabbit offered up the information she knew, albeit in a way that was half true and half false:
"Based on the results of my discussion with Fox, a monster from the realm has invaded this mental world. It possesses a portion of Garuda's remaining magic, which is why it was able to invade and distort the 'rules' of this mental world."
"The controller behind those monsters is very likely this Domain Monster. We need to find a way to pull it out from behind the monster army so that we can take back this mental world."
Halfway through his sentence, Cheshire Rabbit looked seriously at Qiu Gui, whose gaze, which had been momentarily dazed, became much calmer, and she nodded vigorously.
As expected, the members of the Heart Moon Fox team are quite reliable. Look at Cheshire Rabbit's professional demeanor; this is what a master of mental imagery looks like!
"So, what exactly do we need to do?" Qiu Gui pressed.
Cheshire Rabbit pursed her lips, pondered for a moment, and offered two choices:
"Our first plan is to risk opening a portal and let Fox and the others go in to find the monster's trail, then we'll launch a direct attack and behead it."
This plan is the simplest and most direct—Hyacinth and Iris are two Star Shadows, Hellcat and I am also Star Shadows, plus the Twelve Zodiac Witches of the Golden Fox and her control over the mental world, solving these big monsters is no different from dealing with Little Karami.
"But that seems a bit dangerous. The remaining 11 giant monsters are still lurking in some corner of this mental world. It would be terrible if they were accidentally released." Qiu Gui shook her head worriedly and continued to ask.
"What about the second option?"
Cheshire Rabbit didn't say much, since the risk Qiu Gui mentioned did exist, and went along with it to come up with the second plan:
"We'll try to establish a strong communication with Fox, and she'll try to send support into our mind through that solid rift. We'll advance step by step, defeating the giant monsters one by one, forcing the domain monster behind them to show up and engage in a final battle with us."
"So, which option do you think is more reliable?"
