Chapter 358: Knowledge Rabbit

Deep in the spirit realm, Lei Keton watched as Tu Ba Ge, surrounded by a sudden cluster of dazed, rabbit‑shaped transparent beings, fell into contemplation.

Although you all look like rabbits, you aren't the same species. As a knowledge rabbit, shouldn't you be surrounding the one who clearly has more knowledge than you? "Hey boss, save me! I'm being overwhelmed by these dazed rabbits!"

Surrounded by a cluster of knowledge rabbits, Tu Ba Ge struggled out a gray skull and shouted loudly at Lei Keton; the tall top hat he had been wearing had been squeezed into some unknown corner.

"Did we intrude into a rabbit's nest?!"

Lei Keton's mouth twitched slightly as he watched the knowledge rabbits block off the surroundings so tightly, yet still politely not disturbing him, and he sighed helplessly.

Then, he gently rubbed his fingers, creating specks of starlight around him.

The starlight quickly flew away from his side, scattering radiant beams around, enveloping all the knowledge rabbits.

At the same time, a pale violet aura swirled in Lei Keton's eyes, as if countless shining stars were reflected within; his gaze became detached, cold, yet exuded an unusually holy, wise impression.

Pairs of eyes that seemed to contain countless brilliant stars—cold, detached, and without eyelashes—appeared on each knowledge rabbit, overlapping their own eyes.

An illusory "glow" that most extraordinary beings cannot see manifested in the eyes of each knowledge rabbit.

The glow seemed composed of wave after wave of massive information; as it reflected into their eyes, pure, overwhelming knowledge began flooding their minds.

"Wuh~ Wuh~"

All the knowledge rabbits simultaneously rolled over, uniformly clutching their heads with both hands, colliding and tumbling into a heap, soon to disperse.

Their dazed gazes were filled with pain; their semi‑transparent bodies took on patches of black, and strange, detached, emotionless eyes tore themselves from them.

"Hey boss! Don't kill these dazed rabbits!"

"They mean no harm."

Without the surrounding knowledge rabbits, Tu Ba Ge quickly squeezed out of the struggling herd, leapt toward Lei Keton, ready to interrupt his action.

One brilliant star after another materialized around Tu Ba Ge, instantly solidifying into a tangible wall that blocked him in mid‑air.

Maintaining his posture, Lei Keton said calmly, "They'll be fine; I'm merely giving them some knowledge, and if suitable, I intend to recruit them all."

"Recruit. You want to raise other rabbits! Or a whole herd!"

"No! You already have a rabbit!"

Tu Ba Ge was startled for a moment, then struggled even harder within the star‑light wall.

It suddenly thought those head‑clutching, wailing dazed rabbits weren't so pitiful after all—annoying dazed rabbits, both stupid and hateful!

Lei Keton's detached gaze swept over Tu Ba Ge, his mouth curling slightly. He suddenly felt that Tu Ba Ge was the greatest help in preserving his humanity.

A moment later, he lightly snapped his fingers; with a "Snap!" the surrounding starlight swiftly faded.

The star‑light wall around Tu Ba Ge vanished, and he immediately pounced onto Lei Keton, his weight, grossly mismatched to his size, causing Lei Keton to stumble.

Lei Keton stepped back two paces, steadied himself, then chuckled lightly and said, "It's not about raising other rabbits; I want to recruit them. I provide knowledge and have them work for me."

"Knowledge rabbits love chasing knowledge, are proficient in many languages, can speak and write, possess good reading ability, and can extract key points from vast information themselves—excellent assistants."

"Aside from being overly weak, having poor communication and rigid thinking, they have no other flaws; they're well suited for tasks that aren't too complex but require considerable knowledge."

Upon hearing that Lei Keton didn't intend to raise this group of rabbits, Tu Ba Ge finally stepped down from him, picked up the previously squeezed‑off top hat, then sneered, "Heartless boss, trying to exploit dazed rabbits without paying!"

After spending so long with the Faceless One, have the rabbits learned to change faces? Lei Keton muttered inwardly, then turned his gaze to the surrounding knowledge rabbits.

The blackness in their semi‑transparent bodies had vanished, and the eyes that had sprouted closed again, restoring them.

A bit of brightness now flickered in their rigid gazes, like a star‑filled sky, yet they still appeared dazed.

Lei Keton swept his gaze around; the knowledge rabbits had mostly organized the knowledge just infused, and after regaining his composure, he chuckled lightly and said:

"Greetings. May I ask if you accept long‑term employment? Compensation will be various forms of knowledge within your capacity to handle."

The surrounding knowledge rabbits all stared at Lei Keton; although they were no longer as rigid‑thinking as before, they still looked foolishly dazed.

Stared at by a group of knowledge rabbits with blank eyes, Lei Keton felt as if he might be assimilated by them—does their dazed gaze spread?

"I feel like I'm turning into a silly rabbit," Tu Ba Ge said, his two drooping ears flexibly covering his eyes.

The next moment, all the knowledge rabbits looked upward toward the heavens of the spirit realm, and Lei Keton, his own inspiration triggered, also lifted his head.

He saw a pair of eyes, containing countless brilliant stars—cold, detached, and without eyelashes—silently appear, and He locked gazes with those knowledge rabbits.

The knowledge rabbits seemed a beat slow; after meeting that cold, detached stare overhead, they finally reacted with panic.

Only for a moment, those eyes filled with countless brilliant stars vanished abruptly, just as He had appeared abruptly.

After a brief panic, the surrounding knowledge rabbits realized they were unharmed; the terrifying gaze from the depths of the spirit realm above had vanished unnoticed, and they quickly regained composure.

These knowledge rabbits seemed different; a violet radiance swirled in Lei Keton's eyes as he casually surveyed them.

Each of these knowledge rabbits had a pair of eyes behind them—a pair containing countless brilliant stars, cold, detached, and without eyelashes.

Within their semi‑transparent bodies, faint starlight floated, and Lei Keton discerned hints of occult scholars in them.

These knowledge rabbits seemed to have developed the ability to draw power from knowledge; leveraging the advantages of spirit‑realm beings, they could fully possess wizard‑like magical abilities.

Did the Hidden Sage choose these knowledge rabbits as His followers? These weak spirit‑realm creatures cannot withstand His relentless pursuit of knowledge. As he pondered, Lei Keton's brows furrowed; he couldn't understand why the Hidden Sage would do this.

Lei Keton looked at the knowledge rabbits encircling him and Tu Ba Ge, felt a headache coming on, and suddenly didn't know how to reasonably arrange them.

Knowledge rabbits have a penchant for chasing knowledge, making them prone to mutations when they grasp dangerous information. Moreover, the Hidden Sage's greatest hobby is to inject knowledge into others.
