Chapter 90: The Doll Lady in the Doll Courtyard
【Doll Garden】
The dazzling red moon hung high above the castle tower.
Surrounding the outside of the castle is a large area of thorn roses blooming in the mist.
Blood-colored petals filled the long and silent path, and mysterious and empty songs were vaguely lingering in the air.
Click - click -
Flower field.
The sounds of trampling came one after another.
In the vague black mist, one after another, the hunters with human heads and spider bodies advanced vigilantly towards the central castle.
"Preparing to launch the third raid... Hunter-killer team No. 21 is in place... Requesting for a raid order..."
"Instruction received...confirmed...assault..."
The leader of the hunter's eyes flashed red lights.
And that is in the next moment.
The dozens of predators suddenly rushed toward the flower field in the black mist at extremely fast speeds.
At the same time, in all directions of the castle, more than a dozen teams composed entirely of hunters launched an invasion of the Doll Courtyard almost at the same time.
All the way forward.
Along the way, you can see many damaged remains of hunters lying around.
It can be seen that before this, they had launched many attacks on the Doll Courtyard, but none of them were successful.
The wildly surging thorns along the road were killed by the sharp blades in their hands.
"Information transmission...has broken through to the third area...500 meters away from the target..."
A hunter's eyeballs flashed red.
But right now.
They suddenly saw a figure faintly emerging from the end of the misty path ahead.
Their perspective quickly zoomed in, and they could clearly see the figure.
It was a very exquisite life-size doll.
In her hand she held an umbrella inlaid with black gilt lace, and she wore a gorgeous doll-like hat on her head.
Wearing a black gilt Gothic dress, her long white hair hung down on her chest, and the high heels under her feet made an unusual sound when they touched the ground.
She looked very weird, her movements were stiff, and she couldn't feel any breath of life from her body.
But she can actually move around.
But it is this almost real-life state that gives her an indescribable feeling of horror.
Ding ding ding ding——
The red light in the eyeballs of the dozen hunters flashed violently.
"Target analysis...Target identity is being confirmed...Information database retrieval..."
"Target identity confirmed... The seventh puppet master of the Doll Courtyard: Black String Moon... extremely capable in combat..."
"Warning...the target is extremely threatening...hunt with all your strength..."
Almost at that moment.
The dozen hunters rushed towards the Gothic doll at an unimaginable speed in an instant.
Countless petals accompanied their figures and scattered in the black sky.
Almost in the blink of an eye.
The dozen hunters had already appeared beside the Gothic doll.
Kaka——kaka——
There were sounds of gears jamming.
A strange scene happened, as if time was suddenly frozen. The dozen hunters who rushed to the puppet suddenly froze in place.
Vaguely.
Under the refraction of the red moon's light, one could see that at some point, one after another, thin and tough silk threads appeared on each joint of their bodies.
They were like puppets, frozen in place.
"The body is restricted...cannot break through...warning...the body is bound...the body is bound..."
The hunters struggled hard, but apart from the mechanical squeaking sounds coming from inside their bodies, their bodies were unable to move at all.
In the flower field.
The exquisite Gothic doll tilted its head.
The knuckles of the fingers can be clearly seen, and they are gently picked.
Poof——
One of the hunters turned around suddenly, and the sharp mantis knife on his arm instantly penetrated the head of the other hunter.
Poof——
Poof——
Several more piercing sounds came.
The hunters stabbed each other's heads in a stage-drama-like manner.
There is only one last hunter left.
The Gothic doll raised its head, looking at his rapidly flashing eyes like a harmless little lolita.
The drizzle pattered down on the black umbrella.
The Gothic doll's head suddenly tilted.
Click——
The neck of the hunter in front of her was twisted by her in an instant.
The body crackled with sparks, and then fell heavily to the ground.
Less than a minute.
More than a dozen hunters were scrapped here without exception.
"All the intruders at the northern gate were wiped out. Record: 59 seconds."
The Gothic doll turned around mechanically and reported.
At the same time, several other voices of different styles came to her ears.
"All intruders in the southern area were wiped out. Record: 3 minutes and 51 seconds."
"All the intruders in the northwest area were destroyed. They were slightly injured and parts need to be replaced."
"The intruder in the eastern courtyard is being dealt with. It is expected to take another 5 minutes."
"Xianyue, why are you so efficient? Did Madam's engineer replace your sister with new parts? You are now much further away from your sisters!"
"Sister Xian Yue is a cleaning doll, so of course she is faster than us! Stop being so nagging, hurry up and resolve the battle, and you have to return life to Madam!"
There was a buzzing sound in my ears.
The Gothic doll walked along the path, holding a black umbrella, and walked towards the castle step by step.
She walked exactly the same distance with each step, and her gothic dress fluttered slightly in the wind.
But at this time.
She stopped suddenly.
His eyes moved slightly toward the corners of his eyes.
It's like discovering something.
In an instant, dense glass-like threads pierced into the space not far away.
Buzz——
The space split open instantly, and a strange-shaped turtle king was controlled by silk threads and dragged out of the void in an extremely weird hanging upside down manner.
"Sending a letter..."
The Turtle King stared with a rare expression and said these three words hundreds of times faster than usual.
The Gothic doll's head tilted.
…
A few minutes later, inside the castle.
"Bloodsaw, your letter."
In a hall full of gears, a doll lady dressed in gorgeous clothes walked in with elegant steps.
The nearly three-meter-long body is well-proportioned and noble.
If you exclude the height, she looks like a medieval lady.
And on the other side of the hall.
The tall and burly Bloodsaw leaned on the mechanical platform, his eyes flashing.
Beside him, doll-sized dolls with buttons sewn on their eyes were holding various tools and beating on his body to help him treat the huge wounds on his body.
"Letter?" Blood Saw said solemnly: "Who sent it?"
Mrs. Doll sat elegantly on the gorgeous chair opposite, gently picked up a cup of rich coffee, and said nonchalantly:
"What my daughters found in the courtyard was sent by a void messenger. The messenger's name is Linn. Do you know him?"
Hear the words.
Xue Saw was stunned for a moment.
"Lynn? How is this possible!"
He stood up with difficulty, dragged his huge body to the table with a frown, and reached out to take the letter.
"Who is he?" Mrs. Doll moved her lips.
"It's a child I adopted two years ago." Blood Saw looked at the letter solemnly and said:
"I have been my apprentice in the pharmacy for the past two years. A few days ago, after I realized that the Demon Association might go to Wandering Soul Alley, I urgently sent him a message. It seemed that he had escaped the demon. The murderous hand of the People’s Association.”
He composed himself and quickly opened the envelope.
As soon as he saw the crooked words written on it, he confirmed that it must be the handwriting of his apprentice.
Because only this guy can make good handwriting look so ugly.
But just after he saw the words on the letter, his expression changed drastically.
